We chose the YoKOYA for a birthday dinner and had a great time! The YoKOYA is a cozy and comfortable restaurant with friendly staff and unrivaled food quality. The design is simplistic and clean. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely come again, when we visit London the next time. They are specialized in whiskey and beverages but our highlight was definitely the food! The tempura were cooked evenly, crispy and tasty, served with a sauce which complement each other in a sweet way. The crispy chicken was tender and soft, still rich in flavor. The lemon amplified it's taste. Equally as good was the salmon, with it's soft texture and juiciness. The mushrooms had a nice beautiful bite to them and great flavor, which kept us wondering about the way they were cooked. Important to note here is the quality of the rice. You can feel the difference in the grain of rice, compared to other restaurants. The quality you get here is excellent. For the desert I chose the homemade Matcha Cake. The firm Matcha layer with it's unique taste was laying on a crispy and crumbly base. The owners were very friendly, professional and put effort into making our stay a pleasant experience. Overall the quality, service and flavors you get here are exceptional.
