Sushi Tetsu

"This tiny, low-key Clerkenwell Japanese focuses on high-quality, moderately priced sushi and sashimi, served à la carte or in an omakase (chef's choice) menu." Full review

"Each nigiri is inspected with a contemplative look and finished with a dab of soy, sprinkling of sea salt or lick of flame from a blowtorch before being placed on a glossy bamboo leaf." Full review

"A banana leaf is laid before you, wiped and polished – and polished and wiped again. A mound of pickled ginger is placed to one side. The fun may now begin." Full review

"Tiny, unpretentious, and world class."

"If your sushi experience in life thus far has been limited to the standard conveyer belt stuff and the odd trip to the likes of Nobu or Roka, dinner at Sushi Tetsu is going to change your life." Full review

"1) Dine from the a la carte menu of white fish, tuna fish, blue fish and shell fish sushi, sashimi and rolls; or 2) Go “omakase”, entrusting the chef to pick the best of the day’s ingredients." Full review

"Clerkenwell’s Sushi Tetsu might be the hardest reservation in London, in part because there are only seven seats. It also pound-for-pound serves the best (value) sushi in the city. "
