    I ordered the Katsu Pork Sando and the Kinako French Toast. They were both superb. The sandwich was perfectly balanced and filling. I had seen plenty of vloggers try Japanese "sando's" and I was worried they wouldn't live up to the hype, but the sandwich I had exceeded my expectations. The Kinako French Toast was subtly sweet, spiced, hot, cold and moreish. Next time I'm in Soho I'm definitely going to swing by again.

    Went for the brunch, great to see how food focused this option was. Great variety and quality. So stuffed after main course but was urged to leave room for desert, so glad I did. Do not sleep on the French toast! Fantastic value

    Service was unfortunately really poor - very very slow. We waited 20 mins for the right drink, having been served the wrong one. It was also insanely loud. There was a particularly rowdy table that no one asked to quieten down a bit, which they should have. Food was good but not worth the overly rambunctious atmosphere and poor service sadly

    We’re sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with the service and noise. Thank you for your feedback—we’ll address these issues to improve. We’re glad you enjoyed the food and hope to provide a better visit next time.

    The food was extremely mediocre and average and the service was weird. The guy kept talking to us in a condescending tone. I don't think it lives up to the 4.5 starts on google.

    Went here for a pre theatre meal between the two parts of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the staff were really friendly and helpful, we had the tasting menu which was delicious, and involved four courses, but I would seriously recommend the Okonomiyaki Prawn Toast, which was part of it. The prices are very reasonable based on the amount of food, service and quality.
    Shack-FuyuResponded on May 23, 2025
    Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tasting menu and that our team helped make your pre-theatre meal special. The Okonomiyaki Prawn Toast is definitely a favourite! Hope to see you again soon for another magical visit.

    Great food, brilliant value for money. 2 of us had the tasting menu with the wine pairing and there was plenty of food available. Highlights were the pickled shiitake, the Korean fried wings, and the Kinako French Toast. The only blemish on an otherwise flawless experience was we weren't explained what the wines were when we were brought the wine pairings for the tasting menu. They were good wines, but it would have been nice to hear a bit about them, where they were from and what notes we should expect etc.
    Shack-FuyuResponded on May 23, 2025
    Thank you so much for the kind words and thoughtful feedback! We're delighted you enjoyed the tasting menu and wine pairing — especially the shiitake, wings, and French toast! Your note about the wine explanations is really appreciated, and we’ll make sure to improve on that moving forward. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon!
