I almost hate posting this as it's like giving away some kind of treasured secret.....but after last night, i have to! It was just so good.
If you're looking for good, BASIC, high quality and cheap sushi in London, look no further than Misato in Chinatown.
It was FAB. A bit dodgy looking, 10 min wait. (There is always a wait, so I've heard). Food through window looked great.
VERY no frills place but amazing quality sushi for what you're paying. Not the most adventurous selection-I can remember tuna, shrimp, salmon (cause I had those) plus 3 or 4 more types of sushi plus about 6 different types of rolls.
All sushi about £1 a piece. The rolls, 6 pieces for £2.75
And the rest of the menu was great. We had some Tempura but there were many good looking dishes around us: Bento, Udon and Soba soups....etc.
It's totally worth a shot. We had: 2 beers, a sushi roll, 8 pieces of sushi and 2 orders of tempura for about £24.00 (without service). Not the most romantic place.....but really good quality and you can't beat the price! We'll be there. A lot.
And the clientele is mostly asian, which is always a decent sign!!!!!!
