Noren - Sake & Sushi Bar

What a fantastic experience! We went to celebrate my husband's birthday and loved everything - really creative flavours different from traditional sushi/sashimi. I recommend the tuna carpaccio with parmesan in particular! Service was attentive and excellent throughout. We even had complimentary ice cream on the house at the end! Prices were fair for the experience - you would pay 3 times more in the top end places!

If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this sushi and sake restaurant is truly exceptional. From the moment I stepped inside, the ambience set the tone – intimate, refined and perfect for either a special occasion or entertaining key clients. With seating for no more than 10-12 guests, it felt private and personal enabling you to fully immerse yourself in the dining experience. Each piece of sushi is prepared with precision in front of you, elevating not only the flavour but the overall experience of watching an expert chef at work. The staff were all highly attentive without ever being intrusive, guiding you through sake pairings that complemented each course, making the entire meal feel curated for you. I cannot fault any of the food served (it is the best sushi I’ve ever had in London), the high-quality ingredients and care and precision that went into their preparation was clear and I thoroughly enjoyed my evening at Noren. I’d highly recommend experiencing this for yourself. Thank you for such a great evening!

We celebrated our friendaversary at Noren Sake & Sushi Bar, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect choice. The warm, intimate atmosphere made us feel instantly at ease and overall we had an absolutely amazing night. The menu is a true showcase of craftsmanship—each dish presented like a piece of art, and the flavours are the likes of which we’ve not experienced before. The marinated salmon sashimi was fresh, fatty and coated with an incredible flavour. My absolute personal favourite ,however, was the tuna with Parmesan ; creamy, savoury, and indulgent in the best way possible. I’m still getting flashbacks of that rich umami taste. Pairing sake with the progression of plates made the whole experience feel like a culinary journey. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate, which made made us feel really welcome and well looked after. Whether you’re a sushi lover or simply looking for a truly unique night out in London, Noren is an absolute must. It’s intimate, special, and every bite is a reason to come back.

I had an incredible experience at Noren. Every dish was fresh, nicely prepared and full of flavour. The sake pairing was expertly done, enhancing every course perfectly. The chefs were all very professional and knowledgeable, enjoy chatting with them when they were free. I’ll definitely recommend to my friends and will be back soon.

Real hidden gem. Super cosy but welcoming interior and the food and beverage to match. You can tell that the chef cares a lot about the provenance of ingredients. The menu is well laid out and explained with the sushi omakase being super great value in my opinion. I feel like I’m getting much more than what I paid for compared to other places which is what makes me want to visit again. It’s things like the miso ice cream being served in a frozen bowl where you can tell a lot of effort is being made. Really nice and diverse sake list to try and the staff are very happy to let you taste and try different things or make recommendations.

Amazing sushi experience! One of the best sushi places I’ve tried in London. The wagyu was soft and full of flavour — it just melted in my mouth! The side dishes were also really good. I loved the fresh cucumber with sauce and the pickled veggies, especially the carrots and radish. Everything looked beautiful and tasted even better. The service was great too. Highly recommend if you want quality Japanese food!

Such a perfect dining experience. Service was amazing and personal, and the sushi was some of the best I’ve tasted. Couldn’t recommend it more.

I came with a friend for a special dinner. The food and atmosphere were both excellent. My recommendations are the Botan Ebi, Renkon Sake-zuke, and Toro Taku Makazu,. I know I’m on a diet, but I just couldn’t stop eating the Botan Ebi Nigiri 🤣 it was the best ! I highly recommend booking in advance, as there are only 10 seats available. We had an amazing night. Arigato, Koji san and Niko san!
