Ohhhhh this was easily one of the best Japanese places I’ve tried in London- and there are many. There wasn’t a single bad dish but the miso Aubergine was a stand-out. Service is in typical Japanese polite hospitality. Prices are decent for London!

Hands down one of our favorite meals in London. The place was tiny and the staff were all welcoming and great. Now onto the meal. We did the Omakase at the counter and if you like amazing nigiri and hand rolls, this is the place for you. We ordered several additional pieces (because it was so amazing, not because we were hungryand chef even did a couple special request pieces for us. Their sake list was brief but still great options and they helped guide us through our choices. Highly recommend and as noted tiny so make a reservation.

Cubé is a fantastic Japanese restaurant. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. And the food served is delicious. A highlight was the miso aubergine - best I think I’ve had. The maki were excellent. Price for the food is very reasonable - looking forward to visiting again

The shop was very busy, nearly full. Unfortunately, I book the table too late and didnt have the bar seating.Excellent table service, very polite and patient. However, the waiter has a heavy Japanese accent, I seem to struggle to understand him when he is guiding me thorugh the food.For appetiser, we have Kaiso salad, Tuna Tataki and Hamachi yuzu ponzu. Personally, I really like the Hamachi because it is really refreshing and open up my appetite. For tuna Tataki, the black pepper sauce seem a bit overpower which cover the taste of tuna. I love the Kaiso salad as it comes with 4 different type of seaweed. Love it!For our main, we have the cube special roll, eel fois gras roll, seared toro sashimi, abalone nilgiri and Scallop truffle butter. My favourite is the eel fios gras roll, its saucey and very creamy. I never had such combination before. And for the abalone nigiri, it was really tender. Well done!Overall, I will give it a 9/10Food (10/10)Price (9/10)Service (10/10)

We went for our first wedding anniversary for the Omakase experience and sat at the counter for our 12 course dinner. It was nothing short of spectacular, and it was a pleasure to see the master sushi chef creating such beautiful dishes. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely phenomenal. The best sushi I have ever had. Had the 10 course option and the chef ran through each one. Every single option was divine. So much so we had to order more afterwards as it was so good. Large pieces mean you really get value for money. Will definitely come again. Out of this world.

Good and tasty food, lately prices were raised significantly (far beyond the rate of Inflationwhich doesn’t really make it worth going for me. I can imagine it’s because of raising prices or costs but it’s so significant that I will go elsewhere. Fish quality is very good. Chisou nearby is not as good but maybe their prices haven’t been so inflated.Female wait staff is very kind but the welcome from the male staff (except oneisn’t very warm or friendly. Not a major issue but I never felt super comfortable there (10+ visits to the restaurantwith the male staff…

Came for the omakase lunch. Lack of explaining in what order of sushi we should start with. Inconsistent with the amount of rice in the sushi. Too much wasabi in the sushi, and we barely can taste anything from the fish. I also strongly advise anyone who is planning to visit this restaurant, make a reservation for table near the kitchen as it is the whole point of omakase. In general, the service was great but the sushi was comparable a regular Japanese restaurant.

Very nice restaurant.Went in a party of 2. Ordered sea urchin+lunch omakase menu. Sea urchin is very fresh and has a extraordinary sweet taste, which is a good starter. The omakase menu consists of starting salad, 10 nigiri, 1 handroll, and dessert, which is ice-cream. Im not the type of person that likes the taste of wasabi, but cubé has really changed my mind by incorporate wasabi well with the freshness of fish, its also very good to eat with sushi ginger.In total we spend £87 per person (including service charges and taxes)

Weve had omakase experience for a birthday. Enjoyed it very much, authentic Japanese setting, very good quality fish (especially I liked toro), and welcoming staff. We liked nigiri so much that weve additionally ordered a chefs nigiri selection, which was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Sea urchin is probably the best I ever had in London, very fresh and tasty. Sashimi is great generally. Scallop is slightly overcooked and a little bit too hard inside. Feel a little bit overpriced but still highly recommend you want a nice cosy sashimi house

I thought their omakase menu is very reasonably priced considering its location, and I heard many great reviews from friends so I was excited.I doubt the sushi chef actually has a passion for what he does. He was quite clumsy with his handling of the nirigi - toppings kept felling off and the wrapping of seaweed on a Gunkan maki was rather messy. The whole experience felt very rushed. His movements were closed to smacking the sushi on the plate. I overheard his conversation with another customer, which he seemed impatient and to a certain extent - rude.On to the food - the order of the fishes served felt a little off balance. Some fishes were fishy such as the halibut and akami. I was very much looking forward to the uni but again, it was fishy and weren’t plumped. The best pieces of the meal were scallop (so sweet!with caviar and the seared wagyu. The yuzu sorbet was a nice and refreshing ending to the meal.There was a couple next to us having the oamakse too, they arrived slightly later than us but we were eating at the same pace. We were all waiting for the temaki roll at the end, then they got theirs before we did and the chef started preparing something else? I had to ask if our course has finished to give them a hint that we didnt get the temaki...Apparently, the master sushi chef doesnt work on Sundays (when I visited)? I will definitely bear that in mind next time. Other waiting staff was friendly and professional. It was a shame that the omakase experience wasnt comprehensive nor impressive on this occasion.

Most authentic sushi in London, the quality of the fish is very very good. If you could get a table at the courter, thatd be quite a nice experience to order the omakase as the chef would give you each piece of sushi one by one.

It was a very ordinary omakase. The chef and waiter didnt want to admit that they overcooked a piece of burnt fish. Despite the smell of burnt fish permeating the kitchen, they finally replaced the burnt fish for me. Japanese chefs have a very general attitude, throwing fish and used plates very rudely, making a lot of noise, and dont take the initiative to understand customers preferences and greet them. But the waitress was so nice, this is two stars for them.

By far, the best sushi in London!!! The service was also really accommodating and friendly, making celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday so lovely! We both agreed that the quality and freshness of the fish was impeccable; the sea urchin served to us was just imported that day (from Iceland!). Our highlights were the octopus, fatty tuna, king crab tempura and green tea brownie! Definitely coming back again (and again- so glad we decided to try this new find! Such a breath of fresh air to have a humble (and more traditional stylesushi dining experience, without all the extra glitz and glam! A MUST GO!

Actually one of my favourite Japanese in london right now. Consistently good fish. Nigiris were very good, they were not seasoned but you didn’t need any as the rice was excellent and the fish was fresh. Cute place with good service, decent sake.

An upscale Japanese restaurant located by Oxford St. I highly recommend going for the Chefs Omakase, served to you piece-by-piece at the sushi counter.This is my second visit to Cube, with my first time in 2019. It was fantastic then and fantastic now.Although the usual sushi chef was on leave, the chef in his place did an impeccable job. Fresh seafood is paired with great quality sushi rice. Fantastic stuff.If you do not get the Omakase, I highly recommend you request their Negi Toro Temaki. The stuff of legend. The Wagyu nigiri and tataki is phenomenal.The staff are incredible with an exceptional level of service. They were incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Top notch.Expect to pay a fair bit but it is worth every penny.If you are unable to get a seat at Sushi Tetsu, this is the place to go.

Outdoor space was cozy, with blankets, heating and roof - very important for London. We enjoyed the tempura, which was very light and refreshing. The nigiri and rolls selection were pretty good, the fish tasted fresh and had natural sweetness in it. All dishes ordered were tasty. 😋 If you like fruit sake, I’d also recommend the yuzu wine, a little bit lighter than the plum wine and very refreshing. Friendly services and comfortable atmosphere.

Had a lovely sushi dinner at Cube. Very impressed with the quality of nigiri. The food was delicious, fish extremely fresh, the chef clearly looks for ways to obtain freshest ingredients from different locations. The service was also very attentive. There are a couple of interesting western fusion dishes like the eel/foie gras maki roll but overall the menu is traditional and authentic. We had hoji tea, 2 starters, 2 rolls (6 pieces eachand 17 nigiri which came to about £150 which is a bit on an expensive side. Given the quality of all the food, I think it was definitely worth it. If you are in the area and are looking for great sushi, highly recommended.

We had Omakase dinner the night before Tier3 in London and it was great! We have a go-to Omakase place in Melbourne, Australia called Kisumè and was skeptical to try a new omakase place.We saw a few options for Omakase and wanted to try all of it but decided to start with Cubè and did not disappoint!We already knew what we want so we didn’t really check out the menu apart from the booze. We had a really good plum umeshu, so light and delicious, was so easy to drink between two people and worked well with the whole omakase course.Entrees were good and the nigiris were so fresh! It was very simple but you can just appreciate how fresh the seafood are! You can see everything we had in the photos but our fave was the wagyu nigiri, we had to order it again to have it as our last bite!

Great food with great service. Nothing exceptional but everything was good. The best dishes were the foie gras and eel maki and the seared otoro nigiri. Would not get the fondant again as it was clearly not made in house and not liquid inside.

I had lovely lunch with my friends yesterday. It was completely full at around 1 pm, so better make a reservation if you want to secure your table. Many choices for set lunch as well as a la carte. I choose sushi set lunch as the chef is one of the most well known for his skill. And he didnt disappoint me at all! Highly recommended.

Went for the lunch Omakase set (shown in the photoswhich was wonderful. The chef prepares and explains the origin of each piece as he serves it to you. It was a great chance to try a range of sushi - personally I loved the way the turbot, eel (unagiand half-fatty tuna (chu-torowere prepared the most. My friends had a sushi set and the days special bento which they thoroughly enjoyed, as well as some lovely karaage (fried chickenand nasu dengaku (miso aubergine). Well with a visit, especially with the reasonable lunch prices.

Wonderful new addition to #sushi dining in London. Sit at the counter and go for the Omakase menu. Loved the interaction with the chef and his fine selection of nigiri, maki and temaki dishes. Highlight for me was their selection of Toro. Looking forward to my next visit!

Incredible. Sat at the sushi bar in front of the chef and went for the Omakase menu. It didn’t disappoint and in fact one of the best sushi I’ve had in London. The decor and atmosphere is so wonderfully authentic. Sake selection was really good and complimented the food. I will be coming back for sure.
