Overall it was good but I got some chewy octopus which for the price of the omakase shouldn’t happen. I did inform the waitress and got no feedback. In general the food was good but should have been less expensive

£100のコース料理をいただきました。どの料理も本当においしくて、感動しました。前に日本で住んで働いていたので、味を食べたとき、昔の思い出が心に戻ってきました。スタッフもシェフ（けんさん？）もとても優しくて、あたたかい気持ちになりました。カウンターに座って、シェフが目の前で料理を作っているところを見られて、とても特別で楽しい体験でした。料理だけではなく、心のこもった時間でした。絶対に同僚にもおすすめしたいです!!! We got the £100 set tasting course and everything was absolutely delicious. Having lived and worked in Japan before, each bite brought back memories. The staff were very accommodating, and the chef,Ken-san, I believe, was excellent. We sat at the counter and got to watch him prepare the dishes right in front of us, which made the experience even more special. It was more than just a meal; it felt like a live, personal experience. Everyone was genuinely kind. I’ll definitely recommend this to my colleagues!
