Superb experience from Shinsen - we got great treatment from the owner, and the chef absolutely outdid himself on every metric. Great spot for dinner, and will hurry back. Thanks again to both.

Absolute a gem when it comes to food presentation, value and taste. But one BIG thing they have to change is the design of the place. As soon as you enter you just want to leave or at least have very poor expectations.

The food was amazing - delicious and beautifully presented. We really appreciated that our impressive server took great care to advise and offer customisation of dishes to suit gluten intolerance. There are only a handful of seats, but the place was buzzing (early evening) due to the stream of collection riders. Prices are very reasonable for the exceptional food.

Amazing sushi, great value for money. It's not however a restaurant, more a takeaway with a few tables. We had a great time there though. They serve beers and beautiful fresh sushi in a very informal setting

So good we came back for takeaway the next night! The sit in area is very small so we were glad we booked. Service was excellent and they did a great job making sure my friend who has some dietary issues knew what she could have and changed a few ingredients for her.

Friendly staff. Sushi rice was dry and had been in rice cooker for too long
