Waka review, Monument, London: Japanese/Pervian fusion ...

Review analysis
food  

A “grab-and-go” Nikkei (Japanese and Peruvian fusion) restaurant serving top-quality food for prices that makes Itsu seem expensive.

It’s a labour of love by brother and sister Irakli and Nino Sopromadze, who have overseen everything from the take-away boxes to the wall art.

The seared tuna is excellent, but if you’re in the market for fish, the seabass ceviche should be top of your list; with a well balanced leche de tigre (the citrus-based marinade that cures the seafood) and a dainty little edible flower perched on top, it’s hard to believe this is being served for a few quid in a take-away restaurant, and not going for £12 in one of Martin Morales’ (also excellent) places.

And there is, of course, also a good selection of Nikkei, sushi and sashimi.

It’s probably too casual for clients but the bright downstairs area would be ideal for a team meeting away from the office.

Itsu Brighton - Menu & Review - What To Eat

The champagne opening was brilliant fun and a great way to meet other people in local businesses, journalists, bloggers and generally interesting people, not to mention the mayor of Brighton.

This option comes with an egg, which I felt was a nice touch and made it a bit different from the other salads, while the beans taste great as well.

I felt there were possibly a few too many pomegranate seeds, however the cashews and the duck combined with the hoisin sauce, sticky rice and muki beans was the epitome of perfection.

There were three options in the special combo section, all including a main protein, a herb based dressing, sticky rice and a ‘special salad’: I attended the opening alongside my friend and colleague Louis Limon.

Many of the options reached 30 grams of protein, while the saturated fat levels were very low, with healthy fats included in salmon and avocado.

Whether it is the children’s love of the novelty of the conveyor belt serving a variety of maki, sushi and sashimi, or the hot menu offering delicious bento boxes and hand rolls, the mix of food and great atmosphere, it makes for a great family night out.

The Salmon handroll was a great mix of salmon, pesto, watercress and rice – like a massive sushi cornet!

The staff at itsu were really helpful with menu choices and well informed on which dishes went well together.

It was great to know we were in good hands and ensured that we had the right dishes for all the family, especially when it came to the desserts.

itsu’s motto is “to help you eat beautiful” and we heartily agree that the range of dishes and fresh flavours make for a truly lovely dining experience.

Itsu, London SW3, restaurant review - Telegraph

Review analysis

Spicy salmon sushi (£3.85) was good.

Salmon appeared again in my miso soup (£2.85), which was excellent, with yet more in the teriyaki maki (£4.95), which was pretty tasty but very sweet and, in this austere month, something you could only justify if you'd just been to hot yoga.

B had the chicken and coconut soup (£4.95), which was moreish, but not in a good way, more because it was extremely sharp and limey, which for some reason makes you want to keep eating it, the palate equivalent of scratching an itch.

In sum, the cuisine itself is healthy, delicious in parts, in other parts a bit neutral, but for a wide variety of reasons, impossible to stop eating.

Piled high with salads (think lentil and spinach, or brown rice, butternut squash and cherry tomato), vibrant vegetable dips and pitta, it costs £8.
