Kushi-Ya

"This simple yet inviting first floor space features an open kitchen and counter dining. The cooking is Japanese but we’re not talking sushi; instead, as the name suggests, they specialise in kushiyaki: skewers of meat and vegetables, cooked over a charcoal grill. Sharing is encouraged and prices are easy on the pocket. Extend the evening with a visit to their bar, Yokocho, a few steps away in Hurts Yard." - Michelin Inspector

The shop is much bigger now with lots of seating. Portion size of the lunch menu is on the smaller side, just enough for ladies, for men you’ll probably need to order few more side dishes to be fully satisfied. Overall very tasty and well presented, skewers were tender and covered in savoury sauce, prawn toasts were crispy and not overly oily.

My boyfriend and I came for date night dinner and the food here is absolutely phenomenal - I’m still dreaming of the matcha cheesecake! I love the vibe here as well, exactly what I’d want from a Japanese restaurant. Service was prompt and quick and I would suggest booking well in advance as people were getting turned away during our 8pm booking.

Incredible. Staff are so friendly and helpful, menu is a good size so you're not overwhelmed with choice, but enough variety to be able to get lots of different bits. Beef skewers were dangerously tasty, as was the parfait dessert. Please do yourself a favour and check it out.

Been here for lunch! Was surprised to see how naturally bright it is inside and spacious! The deco is calming and gave us a nice space to chat. Food is amazing as well, it is a twist on Japanese BBQ on sticks! We tried that set lunch and added a beef tongue as well!

The lunch set menu was a lovely combination. Initially I was skeptical with the taste of the yolk and sauce, but I decided to be brave and gave it a go. Mixed the yolk and sauce, then dipped the chicken skewers. The taste was amazing! There was no taste of raw egg that I thought it might have. The matcha cheesecake is a must try. Loved the taste of the food here. The yuzu lemonade was refreshing.

We visited this restaurant for the first time and loved it. The food was amazing, great menu with excellent selection of specials. Make sure you ask the staff for recommendations which really helped. I would highly recommend and we will definitely be returning.

Incredible. Booked in advance and worth the 4 month wait. Every dish, every bite was absolutely worth it. The service was exceptional, no rushing, the food arrived perfectly with some great recommendations. Would 100% recommend.

Our first visit to their new location after enjoying lunch a few times in their original restaurant. Loved that it was bigger and has an outdoor space too. We still started queuing 20 mins before they opened to get a table but I don’t think that’s necessary now with the larger restaurant. Lunch menu very similar to previous visits - snack, 2 small plates and rice with or without curry sauce. Prawn toast was as good as ever and enjoyed the chicken on a stick and the prawns with a satay style sauce. All beautifully cooked and so tasty. Service was friendly and professional. Just need to plan in advance to get a table for dinner one day!
