London's Best Restaurants that are most frequently booked by customers of Maru London
🙂 4/5 - Amazing food but…

So I am a bit conflicted with this dinner as I enjoyed the food immensely (food was comparable to a sushi master you could find in Singapore/Japan/Hong Kong/Malaysia) and obviously the London standard for Omakase isn’t as competitive. Food wise, I thought the nigiris were excellent, perfect rice to fish ratio and served room temperature. Rice seasoning is on point. But a couple of things that happened made me feel like this was a four star as opposed to a five star experience. So how I would usually eat my nigiri is to eat it fish side down (as opposed to rice on the tongue first). At the end of the meal when I was chatting to the chef he made a comment that that was very odd and he was wondering why I was doing it throughout the meal and was also saying that that was not the way he intended someone to eat the nigiri he prepared. This irked me for two reasons - 1. I would have appreciated it if he told me this BEFORE or DURING the 20 course menu and not after I just spent 390 quid (including drinks) on the meal and 2. I have done this at other omakase restaurants such as Sushi Saito etc and similar second third generation chefs and none of them said anything. If you google how to eat nigiri you’d be able to see that it’s pretty 50:50 as to the “correct way”. Basically, the chef is a big fish in a small pond that is London, great Omakase and I would have dearly loved to have gone again but his condescending attitude has thrown me off completely.
