So of course I'm stuffing my face with sushi. I tried Itsu today and I find the quality is better. I like that wasabi has more options including vegan which I got by accident but Itsu tastes better.

Love the idea - plain and simple: pick your noodles/rice (egg noodles, udon, jasmine, whole grain…read morerice), then your choice of meat/vegetables (chicken, beef, pork, tofu, prawns, shiitake, baby corn...) plus a sauce (soy, sweet&sour, curry coconut, teriyaki, garlic...) and 2 minutes later it comes all together handy in a small to-go box. This walk-in store offers some seating but is clearly for the rushing-by passenger that strolls through the touristy Soho area between Piccadilly and Chinatown. So, why only 3 stars? Not because my egg noodles with prawns and hot sauce weren't hot (in terms of spiciness), it's more because of the value: for pricey £5.95 I'd expect not to wonder if I just became a fatty who's always hungry or if the portion just was that small. However, if you're checking out the table dance bar next door or the gay sex shop around the other corner and you're craving for a quick noodle snack, stop by.

Missing Mongolian barbecue, Wok To Walk hit my search engine as a close approximation. This is what…read morebookmarks are all about, I was in the neighborhood, I was hungry, and it was nearby! With a pair of gas-fired woks in the window, you can stand and watch the chef prepare your meal right in front of you. You can't blame them for failure, because you pick the ingredients yourself. It's a little overwhelming at first, but if you take a breath, you'll do fine. First, choose from the noodles or rice (helpfully on display in glass jars on the shelf). Then pick your add-ins. They already include a carrot and cabbage mix, so you can add more to it if you wish. For today's visit, I just added chicken (which is precooked, but no biggie). Mushrooms are a nice idea, there are also pineapple chunks and all sorts of stuff. And finally, pick your sauce from their choices, which include Soy, Oyster, Sweet & Sour, Peanut, Teriyaki and more. It's tossed into the wok, tossed into a takeway box, and it's yours. (I suppose you can ask for less oil if you choose, or perhaps they'll add some more sauce. They also have a veggie special, if you're one of those herbivore vegan types.) You're welcome to dine in, though the seats are just wooden benches and the table is rather low. Or take it with you, just remember to grab a fork or some chopsticks! I enjoyed it, it hit the spot and I felt full afterwards. No complaints!

This is a fast food sushi and bento establishment. Their logo drew me in. I had a pre-rolled Dragon…read moreRoll and a Sweet Chili Chicken Bento. The roll and bento were both flavorful and satisfying. I wonder how much better they would taste if I could have them freshly made. It was a quick process to pick up the food and pay for it. If you want a fast, fresh and good meal, this is a good choice.

I'm visiting London from the US and love the concept of individually wrapped and boxes of sushi and…read morerelated food items, perfect for self-serve/grab-to-go. On top of that, the prices are really cheap for the quality and freshness of the food. However, you still get what you pay for. The chicken katsu, for example, was a lot of rice and a Japanese curry that was slightly bland and didn't have that many veggies in it - it was really most gravy (a few onions and cubes of carrots, mostly). The accompanying chicken katsu was fried well, but again a bit bland. It would help a lot if Wasabi provided sauces, such as sriracha, or maybe I missed it because this particular venue was very tiny, had limited seating, and extremely crowded during this time of day. The custard pancake was also overly sweet and not buttery/creamy like I'd hoped. If you're hungry and want a really quick and satisfying meal though that is light on the wallet, I think Wasabi really hits the spot.

Cay Tre Soho was one of the food highlights of our London trip. We visited for dinner on May 25,…read moreand overall, the food was excellent. We arrived about 30 minutes early for our reservation, and the staff kindly allowed us to wait inside, which we really appreciated since London was experiencing record-high temperatures during our trip. The only small issue was that one of our appetizers was mixed up, but it did not take away much from the overall experience. The meal itself was fantastic. I had the Bò Kho, and it was rich, flavorful, and exactly the kind of comforting Vietnamese dish I was hoping for. Everything we tried was fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor. Overall, Cay Tre delivered an excellent dinner experience. Aside from the minor appetizer mix-up, the food was amazing, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for great Vietnamese food in London.

And if I could give -5 stars for their services, I totally would. You are basically on your own without any service for a very long time, even after waving for multiple times. And they came with missing orders that you have to keep chasing, almost like DIY to do it yourself if you can walk into the kitchen. Nonetheless, me and my friend's stomachs weren't doing good at all after eating there and it lasted for a few days. Not to the point that we needed to see a doctor but you got what I mean. I am not sure what it was but no way in hell I would go back again! They provide free cheap drinks if you write them an amazing reviews on google and such. That's where you see good reviews about them.

Great spot for a quick bite and hot soup…read more My mom got the hot noodle soup called the Chicken Gyoza Soumen and it already contains the noodles, veggies and gyoza.

The pâté is rich and liver-forward, which I personally love. It does have a slightly grainy texture because of this, but the bold flavor more than makes up for it. The sandwich strikes an ideal balance of savory, creamy, and sweet with a nice tart kick from the pickled vegetables. The pork belly was soft and slightly gelatinous, but not oily. It adds a nice depth of flavor and texture without being too heavy. One note: the sandwich leans a bit on the salty side, so I'd recommend pairing it with a drink. Overall, it's a fantastic bánh mì and well worth a visit! I also tried the wonton soup. The wontons were decent. The soup was rich in umami flavor, though I think some ginger would add depth and really elevate the dish.

Why does Wasabi charge for soy sauce packets and wasabi? I don't get it... Sure it's like, 5 pence…read morea packet, but I don't think that's the way to go. There are so many of these around London. I've tried the teriyaki chicken onigri rice ball, the spicy chicken somen, and the curry chicken katsu. I would get the noodle soup and curry again, but avoid the rice ball. There's not much chicken and the flavor isn't amazing. Also get the curry during lunch hours so it's still hot! Sushi selection is pretty limited too. Sure, there seems to be a lot, but the variations are broken down into three categories: veggie sushi (with either egg, seaweed, or tofu), salmon (salmon sushi, even the CA rolls have them), or meat (teriyaki sushi). That's basically it. And because I don't eat salmon, it's pretty limited. 5 stars for convenience and affordability. 3 stars for selection. 3.5 stars for taste.
