Waka review, Monument, London: Japanese/Pervian fusion ...
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, London SW3, restaurant review - Telegraph
food staff
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.

food menu
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.

There’s a distinct feeling of stepping into the future as you enter this upmarket kaiten-zushi bar.
Upstairs is a darkly intimate bar, where you can wait until your pager (provided at reception) beeps that a feeding place is free.
We took up residence in a lavishly cushioned anteroom at the top of the stairs, but scurried back to the bar stools when it was invaded by a clamour of Knightsbridge ‘valley girls’.
