    The seasonal set meal is amazing! The food was fresh and exciting! A wonderful little gem in the heart of Richmond. Well worth the visit!

    e. Be warned that this isn't a place you should go for a quick lunch (the sushi is freshly prepared to order), but with the quality of food on offer, you really shouldn't be rushing it anyway

The Salmon sashimi was the largest I have ever had and it was fresh and delicious. The eel was top notch, I highly recommend this place to people who want to eat REAL sushi in London.

We went along on a Thursday night, it was quite quiet, apparently uncharacteristically so according to our waitress. Straight away we received a friendly welcome, and the good service lasted all through our meal. I'm a vegetarian and ordered the vegetable sushi assortment, and a side of fried tofu. When my food arrived, I was amazed at how beautifully presented and fresh everything looked. The food didn't disappoint, it was tasty, fresh and left me feeling the way all good Japanese food does; full and content without feeling bloated or stuffed. My boyfriend had the spicy prawns and mixed sushi, he was blown away by the prawns, which were a special on the day we visited, and also very happy with the sushi. The price isn't super cheap, we paid about £15 per head, but we felt that for the quality of the food and the overall experience, it was more than fair. Will be recommending Oka to all my friends.

We ordered karaage, and gyoza as well as a selection of sushi (Four Meal Drive), which was a really nice sampler - we loved all of it! Also got the California roll, which was delish. Yuzu pale ale beer rounded out the meal. Overall 5 star experience - great service as well as delicious food and location that can't be beat if you are needing something in Covent Garden.

I'm a high ranking city professional I don't expect to be spoken to like that by anyone let alone someone who is hired to give professional welcoming service. I fully understand why there's so many awful reviews. Food has also gone down hill completely as well

We booked the table for 5 people at 12.30pm. The Chinese woman with glasses (I forgot to ask her name) who I assumed was the manager because she was dressed differently, came over to teach us how to order using the QR code. I asked if there was Wi-Fi and if I could get the password. She said, "Yes! But why don't you use your mobile data?" I explained that my number was American and the signal was weak and slow. She then gave me the password, but I couldn't hear her, so I asked her to speak slowly. She rolled her eyes, started to get annoyed, and raised her voice. I told her it was my first time here and why couldn't she be more polite? How was I supposed to know everything? It's not okay to provide service like that. In the end, I didn't order anything, but my friends did because the kids were hungry. I just sat there and waited to go eat somewhere else. I would recommend going to another restaurant. There are plenty of Japanese restaurants in London. There's no need to eat at a place with terrible service, especially with a 10% service charge. Good luck to anyone who is willing to have a new bad experience at this restaurant!
