The Top 7 sushi Spots in London
For all the sushi lovers out there, this is for you. London’s Sushi scene is so diverse and I love seeing restaurants add their twist to classic dishes
Here is my list of the best sushi places in London.
If you’re looking for an authentic Japanese take on sushi and dining experience, I would recommend giving Dozo a try.
That being said they also manage to add a stylish and modern twist to their dishes if you’re looking for something different. Take their Volcano Maki, for example, is blow-touched for that smoky flavour.
A tip – if you order the green tea its unlimited.

Eat Tokyo is the perfect restaurant if you’re looking for classic, affordable and delicious sushi. I have come here on multiple occasions and it has not disappointed. They have a wide variety of different Maki rolls, sashimi and bento boxes. I then to go for the chef special rolls because they manage to blend flavours and textures so well.
