I lived in Osaka and this food is the closest to taste and quality and authenticity. The gyozas were amazing! Udon tempura soup is a must!
Fried oysters are also delectable.

This is hands-down the best food I’ve had in London in the two weeks I’ve been here. Great job! I will be making this my last stop before I head for home on Saturday. ❤️

Terrible Service - Avoid This Restaurant!

We had an incredibly disappointing experience at this restaurant and want to warn others in the neighborhood. Despite booking our table in advance and arriving 15 minutes early, we were denied the table we reserved. Instead, they insisted we sit at a terrible table inside, with no reasonable explanation. This was especially frustrating as I had already informed them that we were celebrating a birthday!

The worst part was the attitude of the elderly lady at the cashier. Her demeanor was rude and unfriendly throughout the encounter, and it was clear she had no interest in providing decent service. To make matters worse, the table we reserved was given to another family, who I strongly suspect were her friends.

If the restaurant prioritizes serving only their friends, they shouldn’t occupy a prime spot on the high street. There are plenty of other restaurants in the area that offer better quality and treat all customers with respect. It’s a real shame that the chef and owner have partnered with such poor management—any guest who isn’t in their circle of friends will likely have a miserable experience here.

We didn’t stay and left immediately, and I strongly advise others to avoid this place unless you want to be treated poorly.

A small restaurant without charm with excellent food, you have to reserve a table no matter what. The crab is delicious, the chicken or vegetable skewers are perfect, the pickles are worth commenting on. Attentive and professional service

Ridiculous
Feel pity for this place

If you love Japanese skewers, you would not be disappointed at Tosa. Skewers were prepared very well, the meats are tender and juicy, and packs that delicious grill smokiness. I would recommend the ox tongue, chicken, and pork belly. Other side dishes were also great, sashimi was fresh, the salmon cheek was grilled very well, and the appetizers were refreshing. Of course, don't forget the perfect pairing of skewers with a good pint of Japanese beer!

The service attitude of the older Japanese female managers is terrible. I have never met any Japanese like her and she is in the service industry!
Since they came back from holiday and reopened, The freshness of the food dropped dramatically and even the chicken had some strange tastes.
I used to eat in this restaurant but now I can't stand their service any longer and I will never go to this restaurant again.

A very authentic Japanese food shop, definitely from Japan Ruko??

All the dishes were very satisfying.
However, as others have written, the service provided by all the Japanese female employees was incredibly low-level and extremely unpleasant.
We request improvements for the sake of the store's quality. It's a real waste because the quality of the food is so high.
I would like to go again, but the customer service makes me think twice.

Are u nuuuuuuts to give 4 stars? The food is disgrace to Japanese food. Has this so called cleat mushroom soup, £4, it make you lost faith on humanity. When I asked what is the soup,manager did not even bother to explain. This is the worst japanese food I had so far in london. All because you silly westerns have no idea about how food should be tasted like. Shame on your 4 stars. Unfortunately, this costed my £55.

Authentic japanese bbq on skewers, best pair with sake or beer

Authentic Japanese grill restaurant. We went on a Saturday for dinner - you must book in advance, we were turned away another Saturday when showed up with no reservation. Loved the Tosa roll (sushi) and squeuers in general: quail eggs, asparagus, sausage and pork were all fantastic. Horenso No Gomaar was also a very tasty starter! As a dessert they offered green tea or chestnut ice cream, which were also very good. Overall would recommend for the environment and reasonable prices.

An absolute hidden gem in west London if you’d like some yakitori skewers! It was quite enjoyable to sit in front of the grill and watch the skewers sizzling. The food was great and authentic as well as being reasonably priced. The atmosphere was comfortable, although being a small restaurant can sometimes be a bit busy.

The Japanese-style skewers, cold noodles, and tempura are all of excellent quality. The atmosphere has a bit of an authentic Japanese izakaya feel.

Chill and uncompromising atmosphere. Friendly service and amazing small plates. Go for the skewers and deep fried stuff.

Our favourite restaurant in the area by far. Fantastic atmosphere, service, food, drink. It’s beautiful in every way.

So much so that, a few weeks ago, after a week in Tokyo, I came straight from Heathrow to a meal here. It’s the best.
