HIMI

The 22 Best Restaurants In Soho - London - The Infatuation

"Himi is minimalist in design, but far from it in flavour and atmosphere. The bustling counter is the place to be at the neo-izakaya off Carnaby Street, with a soundtrack of clinking half-pints and martinis, and Nas playing as the chef hands out incredible temaki ōtoro warayaki. Everything hits: light tempura scallop, tender, juicy charcoal-grilled red shrimp, and thick noodles in a hearty broth. The nigiri is top-tier—the rice is vinegared and warm, seasoned perfectly with soy sauce and wasabi, and topped with a melting cut of squid, tuna, or yellowtail." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager
