Had an amazing experience at this Japanese restaurant! The sushi was absolutely superb – fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Every bite was a treat. The cocktails were out of this world – creative, balanced, and perfectly paired with the meal. Great ambiance and friendly service made the evening even better. Can’t wait to go back!

Great value meal we went for the all you can eat sushi for £50 before going to the theatre opposite. Even at 5.45 it was extremely busy and by the time we left at 7.30 there was a queue outside for the bar area! Cocktails were fab and the wine that came with the deal was nice too. All in all a perfect start to our evening.
Aqua KyotoResponded on April 22, 2025
Thanks for the fantastic review, Sarah! We're thrilled you enjoyed our all-you-can-eat sushi and had a great start to your evening. It's wonderful to hear you loved the cocktails and wine. We can’t wait to welcome you back for more delicious experiences!

Exceeded expectations!! The place is great, wonderful ambience. Service is on top. Thank you to the people taking care about our experience. Food was exceptional. Very delicious, flavourful, beautiful served. We went for brunch option and I would say it was a lot of food. You have 1 main (mushroom fried rice is top recommended), starters to share, side dish and unlimited sushi. All is fresh, delicious. Definitely place to come back again.

The venue is lovely, service was great. Food tasted great. Only issue I had was the food is overpriced for what you get. I posted the black cod and received a tiny piece of cod that I could eat in 3 bites which cost me £42. I won't be going back anytime soon.
Aqua KyotoResponded on May 19, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the venue, service, and overall food quality. That said, we're sorry to learn you were disappointed with the portion size and perceived value of the black cod dish. We always strive to offer the highest quality ingredients and dining experience, and pricing reflects both the sourcing of premium items and the care put into preparation. That said, your comments are valued and will be shared with our team as we continually assess both our offerings and guest satisfaction. We hope you'll consider giving us another chance in the future.
