Food was ok but nothing to write home about. Service was a disaster - didn't deliver one dish then waitress kept looking at her watch and reminding us that we only had 90minutes (we had loads of time and finished our meal in easily less than that). Awful experience considering we spent close to £300 between the two of us (insta-kids next to us spent way less and were allowed to stay for well over 90mins!!). read more

Everything was perfect! Giuseppe was amazing! The experience was overall wonderful! The drink at the samba room are insanely good and the food, is the perfect combo to go with those drinks read more

I personally love the fusion style of sushi samba more than the izakaya fusion style of roka. So if i have to choose between roka, nobu or sushi samba, i would definitely choose sushi samba compared with the others. Very very recommended from me! Cheers! read more

We love dining out as a family, and last night's dinner was, without a doubt, the best experience we've had in London. While other places may match on five-star food and service, the atmosphere here took our night to another level. read more

You arrive at the top floor to experience the view of London from the sky, the view is awesome and our dinner just made the evening perfect. The £100 set dinner is worth every single pence. Service is great , oh I forgot to mention the Rainforest ice cream, perfect ending. read more

The food here is alright but I don't think that is the main selling point. The views here are absolutely amazing and worth the price of the food (which is on the more expensive side). The restaurant is at the very top of this sky scraper and has fantastic views of the city and beautiful decoration. Recommend just for the experience alone. read more

The best (perhaps only?) reason to come to SS is for the view. So few buildings here are high-rises, so when given the opportunity to dine on the 38th floor, even on a rainy evening, of course I said yes. My cousin and I chose the gyoza and two special rolls. One of the rolls came out first. It was not garnished with wasabi or ginger, but had crispy onion and melted mozzarella on top. The shape was unique--rectangular--so it was a bit awkward to eat, but it was delicious. Next out was the gyoza, which sat in a unique sauce that looked like butternut squash puree. Finally, we received our other roll, which did come with wasabi and ginger and was quite colorful, with alternating pink and green wrappings and an assortment of toppings. While the food was tasty, it wasn't spectacular and the price you pay is mostly for the view (rent on the 38th floor cannot be cheap). The most disappointing part of dinner was my cocktail, a miso mule. It did not resemble a mule in the least (I didn't even taste the ginger beer), but instead was more like an unsavory coconut water. I took one sip and knew it wasn't for me. Problem was, the server didn't seem to notice that my cousin had long finished off her refreshing, crisp sake spritz while I hadn't touched the coconut thing. Eventually the ice melted and I poured a little more water in the glass to dilute the overpowering sweetness so I could drink about half of it before left. Drinks and dinner came out to about 120 pounds, which is a bit ridiculous, particularly with a screaming child in a table behind us throughout most of dinner. Afterward, we made out way to the bar upstairs, where we enjoyed a few glasses of wine before retiring for the evening. Come for the view, don't drink the mule. read more

Lovely food, cocktails and service. Came in with a large group, tried most things on menu. The loster tacos and pork belly were standout delicious. Service was good as well. read more

Great views and high quality sushi but ... ... kind of a strange vibe with a bar scene that reminded me of Vegas with a bunch of people pretending to be moneyed. Complete with a velvet rope and bouncer down on the sidewalk level, presumably to control the bar crowd at the terrace. The restaurant was more what you'd expect for the price, with very good, fresh sushi with a bit of a fusion twist, nicely presented. I enjoyed my meal and am glad I went, but the combination with the bar scene was a bit of a turn off. read more

We used to love Sushi Samba in NYC, so when we were in London, we decided to go for lunch there. The view was amazing and the ambience was wonderful but the food was okay. Totally overpriced but I guess we were paying for the view and the scene. read more

Made dinner reservations here while visiting a friend in London. It wasn't quite as expensive as I expected compared to sushi restaurants here in the US. The atmosphere was cool, especially when you enter through the torii gates, although it seems to be a popular spot for younger people so it was very lively. Started off with the lychee cooler and it was to die for. Definitely one of the best cocktails I've ever had. The few sushi rolls we had were very good but this place gets hyped up a lot so I was expecting something mind-blowing. Try to get a window seat if you can. read more

The food was very tasty and the view from the restaurant was amazing. Our waiter was Alper and he was great.

Sushisamba was AMAZING!! Each item came out and exceeded expectations. They were very accomodating for a dietary allergy and ensured our complete satisfaction. Benjamin was our server and was extremely informative, helpful and provided superior service throughout our experience. He is a jewel, so be sure to request him when you visit. Be sure you top of your evening with the Welcome to the Rainforest dessert!! Best sushi experience I have ever had, hands down!! read more

SUSHISAMBA is definitely a destination dining experience, both due to 38th floor location and the price of its food. The other Yelp reviews are very useful in terms of food recommendations and we particularly enjoyed the green bean tempura a few people mentioned - the black truffle aioli was divine. We also enjoyed the black truffle vinaigrette with the shrimp tempura (which is quite a substantial dish so good if you're hungry). Our delightful and attentive French-accented waiter recommended several other dishes that had frequently popped up on other reviews, including the Samba London and Sao Paolo rolls. I thought they were both pretty good but I almost missed the taste of the fish (which as far as I could tell was fresh a good quality) with all the other stuff going on. If I went back I would try some of the normal sushi too so as not to miss out on the fish. The kobe beef mini burgers he recommended were a disappointment, and at £6 each a rip off compared to some of the very high quality full size burgers you could get at a fancy street food event for the same price. The wagyu gyoza however, was pretty tasty. I didn't really like the yellowtail taquitos which tasted mainly of the not so interesting sauce they were drenched in. The Sauvignon Blanc we had was particular delicious and served by the snootiest sommelier ever, who did not crack a smile or, as far as I remember, speak. Hilariously, he later nearly dropped the bottle when refilling our glasses. The only blip in otherwise good service came at the end when our waiter clocked off and we were ignored and left waiting for the bill, which if I had any regular readers would be known as my pet peeve. We neglected to go out to the restaurant garden which probably had the best views - ironically the restaurant and bar garden look out over slightly less interesting East London (although I enjoyed spotting my old stomping ground of Bethnal Green). The Friday after works drinks crowd seemed pleasant enough, it's definitely a place where people come to be seen. Cocktails were good, I had what was essentially a rumspresso, always a favourite of mine. Overall, although I generally enjoyed my experience, if I were going to spend this much money on a meal again I would choose Duck & Waffle upstairs or Salt Yard or one of the other really pricey London sushi restaurants I haven't tried yet. read more

Where to begin? Well, if shelling out loads of money for feeling fancy for a while is your thing, then by all means, splurge here. The food, while a tad overpriced, is delicious, prepared to near-perfection, and the portions are tiny. Hey, I didn't say it was perfect. Obviously, they are known for their sushi, but if you're not a fish-eater, like me, they also have some pretty good meat and vegetable dishes that are both savory and memorable. The Mushroom Tabanayaki was both earthy and buttery, and surprisingly filling considering it was all mushrooms. The starters are also great, and I would recommend trying their Wagyu Gyoza, made with some of the highest quality meat around. The drinks, which, dare I say, are pricier than the food, are some of the fanciest and best-tasting I've had since leaving LA. The sake is good, the wine is exceptional, but the cocktails are downright amazing. Some friends and I tried several from their cocktail menu and didn't find a single one that wasn't delicious. If you're a coffee-lover, take my advice: Go for their Café Millonario. Freaking amazing and super smooth as compared to other espresso martinis, with a dusting of dark chocolate to give it the perfect finish. Yes, it is expensive and you may have to book months in advance to eat at the restaurant, but the bar is always open to the public- just be sure to mention to the doorman that you're going up to the bar so they'll let you in without a reservation- and the view at night is absolutely breathtaking. read more

If you're looking for the best sushi in town with panoramic views of the London skyline then look no further. Sushisamba offers up a unique fusion of Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisine with artistic decor that compliment the stunning views. A glass elevator will whisk you up to the 38th floor so fast it'll make your ears pop, transporting you from the hustle and bustle of the noisy streets below to tranquil surrounds of subtle yet obvious opulence. As expected, once at the top, the views and surroundings are spectacular. The decor is eclectic yet nicely done and adds to the ambience. The outdoor bar with it's large autumn tree centrepiece and the bamboo trellis and lighting in the main restaurant are particularly impressive features. They offer a large selection of cocktails with lots of different options depending on your alcohol of choice, which as expected were very tasty and went down like water. We were particularly hungry so went for the edamame, salt and pepper squid, honey egg plant with sesame, tuna seviche and a large selection of assorted sushi. As it was a special occasion we ended with a chocolate banana cake. Both the food and drink were superb with none of it able to be faulted in any way. I eat a lot of sushi on a regular basis and the food on offer ranks right up there as one of the best i've ever had. It was that good! Let's state the obvious that this place is not cheap. It will put a dent in your wallet but everything about the experience is well worth it. If you're going for a special occasion i'd also recommend booking well in advance as, you guessed it. this great restaurant is extremely popular! read more

Came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. In the same building as the famed Duck & Waffle, it offers amazing views during a dinner you surely will not forget. We ordered 2 rolls, the kobe beef, and an order of salmon sashimi. This is the first time I've ever had kobe beef and I finally understand why it is so expensive. The experience of cooking the meat on a hot stone was something in itself. The meat literally melted in my mouth. The rolls were Ezo and California Maki. I usually never go for California Maki rolls, but this version was made with real brown crab, making it extremely delicious and fresh. The 3 pieces of salmon tasted extremely fresh and were definitely very much worth the cost. My favorite part is actually the outdoor bar with the orange light-up tree. It's extremely cozy and romantic. Great place for a special night with your significant other! Pro Tip: Make reservations in advance. read more

I had a wonderful experience dining here. We were staying at the W and the concierge recommended Sushi samba for dinner so they booked the reservation for us. I was in awe with the view. You can see all of London and we were given a complimentary glass of champagne for booking with our hotel. The service was quick and the food was phenomenal along with the drinks. My favorite though was the dessert it reminded me of my child hood. It was called the amazon if I'm not mistaken. If you ever ate the dessert "cup of dirt" it's what it reminded me of but executed to perfection. It was the perfect amount of chocolate and crunch. It's a MUST try! I had a great romantic dinner with my boyfriend and I'm definitely going back the next time I visit London. read more

Omg What a wonderful outdoor patio! I found the hostess and bartender to be all smiles and welcoming (*eh hm* unlike the 40th floor restaurant, which we escaped due to the cold reception we experienced). Anyone can take the elevator up to the 38th floor here to grab a drink at the bar - no rezzo's needed unless you want to dine in. Warning - that elevator ride is crazy fast and dizzying! On a lovely day or perhaps as the sun is seeing, it is nice to be out on the patio bar under that beautiful lit tree. read more

Came here during a trip to London, and the views were insane. If possible, skip the food and just go to the bar. It's incredibly scene-y and I would definitely not go here if you actually wanted to appreciate fine dining. The prices aren't horrible when you take into account the location and views, although some menu items can be absurdly pricey. The food at Sushisamba is actually pretty tasty if you don't take it seriously. We were with a group of 5, so we shared a few small plates and several of the rolls. My dining companions were very skeptical when I ordered the El Topo (salmon, jalapeño, melted mozz, crispy shallots, mayo, eel sauce) but it was actually my favorite one of the 5+ rolls that we got. That being said, I would never frequent such a place if I were a local. For that reason, Sushisamba is more of a 3.5/5 rounded down. But if you ever get hit by a cheese sushi craving, you'll know where to go. read more

What an experience! From the incredible view of London to the craft cocktails to the ultra creative menu, Sushisamba offers the full package. We were a table of 8 business people so we asked our server to bring us her favorites to share amongst the group. She started us simple with edamame and green bean tempura. We sampled a variety of small plates and entrees. My two favorites were the black cod - sweet and tender, it is the best cod I have ever eaten, and the crispy taquitos - small fish tacos that literally exploded with flavor upon hitting my taste buds. Our server took excellent care of us. Sushisamba was, for me, a celebration of all five senses. It was an incredible experience and I look forward to visiting again when in London. read more
