The "SUSHINOEN" in London, England, is an authentic Japanese restaurant that has made a name for itself in the vibrant district of Whitechapel. It offers an unpretentious yet high-quality culinary experience deeply rooted in Japanese food culture. The establishment combines traditional flair with a modern approach, attracting both locals and tourists in search of genuine Japanese flavors.

High quality sushi restaurant Whitechapel

Culinarily, "SUSHINOEN" places great emphasis on fresh ingredients and the craftsmanship of its sushi chefs, who often hail from Japan. The Sushinoen set is particularly highlighted, offering a lavish lunch that includes tempura, miso soup, and a wide selection of sushi and sashimi—a feast for raw fish lovers. The Volcano Maki, a creative sushi roll with spicy mayonnaise and fish roe, impresses with its depth of flavor and appealing presentation. The Pork Katsu Don, a hearty dish featuring breaded pork over rice, delights with its juicy texture and perfectly balanced sauce. For those who prefer cooked dishes, the Salmon Teriyaki provides a delicious alternative, with tender grilled salmon enhanced by a sweet glaze. The dishes are not only flavorful but also visually appealing, underscoring the care taken in their preparation.

Japanese cuisine with fresh ingredients

The beverage menu harmoniously complements the food. In addition to classic green tea and various types of sake, there are cocktails and smoothies that add a modern twist. Particularly, the traditional sake, which can be served warm or cold, is often praised as the perfect accompaniment to the dishes. The selection is intentionally kept concise to maintain focus on the quality of the food.

The food was great, and the atmosphere was relaxing. Just a heads up, if you’re someone who likes to take their time digesting with a cup of tea, the waiters might give you a little nudge to wrap up!

When my partner booked Japanese for a special occasion, I had trepidations as I (wrongly) assumed it was just sushi, sushi, sushi, which is not really my go-to. I am converted!!! The sashimi was so fresh, I swear it was still moving.....such a taste sensation. Service was brilliant....for example, Momo chasing me down the street with my bag I'd left behind. If you've never been to a Japanese restaurant and are curious........GO TO SUHINOEN!!

We sat at the sushi bar so we got a chance to peek at all the amazing dishes leaving the kitchen making us plan our next visit as soon as possible! Absolutely delicious and worth the price, the service was pleasant and quick which left us surprised because how packed the restaurant was, bravo to the staff for keeping a welcoming and chill vibe❤️🍤

Had super delicious food here. Started with a miso soup whilst waiting for the rest of the group and then we all shared a lot of small plates. The staff were really efficient and friendly. Thank you.

VERY BAD customer service ordered to collect and they said 20 minutes. I came in 20 mins and they said another 30 minutes - they hadn't even started making my food. they were rude and it felt incredibly racist. they looked at me, I was speaking to them and they ignored me. AWFUL service, RUDE workers. highly encourage not to visit.

OK but not amazing. The spicy chicken bento had small amounts of protein and instead plenty of onions and carrots...??? Squid balls with miniscule amounts of squid. Additionally the restaurants own photos don't reflect reality for bentos at least. High service charge for Whitechapel.

Great food! Ask for a table inside and around the big table. It’s lovely. Outside is a bit cold in winter and not as charming.

Delicious sushi, might be the best I’ve had in London so far. Ramen was also delicious, and the portion size was pretty good. Very polite service and nice atmosphere. The place could use a bit of refurbishment - chairs, tables and facilities, would make it even nicer.

Siamo capitati in questo posto per caso perché l’hotel dove alloggiavamo era subito oltre il parco. Che dire? Il miglior sushi che abbia mai mangiato, oltre ad un servizio fantastico, e un personale cordiale e premuroso. Se potessi dare 10 stelle le darei.

When we moved to the area we wondered whether we could find a nice "traditional" Japanese restaurant. THIS IS IT! The most friendly service you can imagine, thinking of going back already makes me smile. The food is great, all of the choices you would expect, and best quality. We love the original Japanese atmosphere and all of the seasonal decorations. Thank you, it is always a treat to go to Sushinoen!
