Edo

I’m quite excited to find this place. Having lived in New York where sushi was on my doorstep, I miss it. So even though it hasn’t quite reached Penge, I’m glad there’s a sushi pace just up the hill!
Instead of ordering sushi in and dealing with it after a 20 minute rest in plastic containers, we decided to pay a visit to the restaurant and have it as fresh as possible. The restaurant is divided into two sections, the first is at the front and has very normal tables and chairs. The second part is up a couple of steps and has tables with sunken seats. It takes a moment to work out how to slide in and sit, but once you are in there, it’s very comfy. (just don’t drink too much and try to get out again!)
The service was brilliant. They really cannot do enough to help and are so sweet and nice to chat to. The décor is very slightly cold, and there weren’t too many people in there with us, but it was fine.
The food was a bit mixed. The prawn tempura was ok, but the vegetable tempura was really really boring. We didn’t finish it and I don’t think I would order tempura again from them.
The miso soup was lovely, really really nice and I savoured every drop. The sushi and sashimi was great — fresh, delicious and quite perfect.
I have also tried their Katsu curry (YUM) and their beef noodle ramen — also yum. Very generous with extremely nice, lean beef and lovely crispy greens.

I didn’t have the sushi but a bowl of the miso ramen instead. Nice broth, chewy noodles with some pieces of Napa cabbage, wakame and tasteless slices of pork. Nothing to rave home about and I suspect it’s a Chinese cook rather than Japanese. It really lacked the lovely presentation style that Japanese food should have.

What a lovely experience we had. It was different because of the quirky seats, and very pleasant because of the fantastic service we received. The food was jolly nice also. I had miso soup to start, which was delicious. And shared the prawn and vegetables tempura with my friend. The prawns were huge and very tasty, the vegetables were bland unfortunately (although I only tried the carrot and sweet potato ones as there were only one of each of the other choices which my friend didn’t realise before she’d eaten them.
The waitress was lovely and very helpful.

Tasty sushi, but the atmosphere is not so welcoming. Still the food is prepared on a good and professional way.

The Nigiri is so delicious there. I recommend you to try it as soon as possible. But keep in mind that the prices are not so low.

I like the endless sushi combinations. The seafood is one of the best for me. So you should go to this sushi restaurant with no hesitation. Don’t forget to try the Shrimp Nagiri and the Egg Nagiri. They are quite tasty and the portions are decent.

If you are a sushi fan, well, you’re not the only one. I like sushi a lot. Actually I like it not only because it is tasty, but the bite-​sized rolls are just so irresistible to me. Don’t forget to try the Tuna Nigiri and the Salmon Nigiri.

They have free delivery for orders over £15.00 and I find this a pretty cool offer. The meals are tasty. for sure. If you want to go in the restaurant, keep in mind that it can be crowded and noisy.

Edo serves very good Japanese. It tempts me to come here again and again. Only the slightly high rates keeps me from coming too often.

I don’t know what the previous reviewers are talking about, I eat in and take out food for Edo all the time and its always amazing quality food and service! One of my favourites on the triangle :)

This was my second visit very positive. Lovely miso, quality sushi and green tea. The service was fine and price was justified. Probably best place for Japanese in SE London.

YUM! so good. my boyfriend and i live local and sometimes get take away from here. it’s really delicious! we love japanese food, so it is amazing to be able to get our favourite delivered right to our door.
i haven’t tried the sushi or sashimi yet (despite loving both) because i can never get past the extremely good value bento boxes and their delicious edamame!
one day i plan to actually visit the restaurant in person and go for a sit down meal… and when i do, i will force myself into trying other things on the menu!

Superb, delicious food. If you value content over form, visit weekly. Dragon rolls are the best in london

This is our 1^st visit. Having communicated to buddies and reading through the I was stop getting excited about dining here. The service was very very good. Very attentive. The atmosphere was comfortable yet inviting. They go the extra distance to confirm their guests are content. It was the prettiest entrée That I have ever had! I recommend this restaurant if you love food items. Very accomodating personnel, and always there when you wish them.
The sushi culinary chefs are amazing and only serve the freshest bass. I’ve proposed this eating place to various, many people and none happen to be disillusioned!

Excellent restaurant in South London. You will definitely won’t find better sushi around this area.
Good prices — good food.
What else can I say. Just go there and try.
Only downside is — their english… lol Once I ordered rum & coke but never got any rum so had to call manager to sort it out. lol

Can’t comment on the restaurant per se, but can definitely wholeheartedly recommend their takeaway/​delivery service. If you’re lucky enough to live in their area of coverage, particularly noteworthy are the scallop sashimi and black cod teriyaki; delivery times can be erm, flexible, but definitely worth the wait. By the second or third time you’ve tried it you’ll find your problem becomes not overordering; it’s all so good !

This wonderful Japanese gem in Crystal Palace is a must-​go for anyone in south/​south-​east London. One visit is all it takes to make this place into your regular haunt.
We went for the first time just last night, and already I am planning on what I want to order the next time around! Inspired by the numerous positive reviews both here on Qype and around the internet, we were definitely not disappointed.
We sat in the back section, which are these built sunk-​in tables that give the perception of authentic on-​the-​floor Japanese dining but the comfort of still being able to dangle your legs. Despite it being a Saturday night, the place was quiet (though we did go quite early — it did start to pick up as we were leaving). Don’t let the tatty menus put you off — the food will outshine any aesthetic shortcomings of Edo. The atmosphere is extremely relaxed and soothing.
We were in a sushi mood, so that’s what we had. The mixed sashimi platter did not disappoint — Edo resists the temptation to fool the diner with cheap fish, but instead puts high-​quality tuna and red snapper even on its mixed platters. Our sushi rolls were a bit small (more hosomaki-​sized rather than the customary futomaki), but very tasty — try the eel & cucumber for a real treat!
To finish it off, a large bowl of green tea ice cream (for the bargain price of £2.50!!) — the only place I’ve been to so far in London that serves this! My other half had deep-​fried ice cream coated in coconut (he proclaimed it ‘gorgeous’).
In summary, we paid under £50 for drinks, large amounts of quality sashimi/​sushi & deseert. Wow, beat that in London.
Edo offers real value-​for-​money for sushi lovers with shallow pockets. The food is great for what you pay, and even though the menu isn’t hugely diverse, it’s enough to satisfy both Japanese food lovers and newbies alike. I can’t believe this place wasn’t teeming with customers.
Can’t wait to go back and try some hot dishes! Black cod tempura is definitely next on my list.

I admit that walking past Edo I would not be tempted to go in for a meal, but having experienced their Japanese cuisine, I would definitely recommend it.
Open for lunch and for dinner, they serve all sorts of Noodles, Sashimi, Sushi, Curries and Tempura. Should you not be familiar with Japanese food, the hosts here are more than willing to explain the meals and help you make a decision.
The tables are low down and sunken in true Japanese style and every meal I have ever eaten here has been delicious.
I would definitely recommend Edo as a restaurant and a take away.

We discovered a little place in Fulham that had the best Japanese food. They closed all of a sudden; we were naturally gutted about it. Since then we were on the hunt to replace that missing hole and I think we’ve nailed it on the head with our latest take away experience.
Brave enough we ordered a few dishes and it was damn good! The steamed rice is just the way we like it and the teriyaki dishes are too die for. Obviously a bit pricier than getting a chow-​mein at your local Chinese take away but you will fall in love with Japanese food if you visit Edo! We’ve only ordered food from them once and we’re giving them big thumbs up!

A strange thing to find in the depths of Crystal Palace.
This Japanese restaurant serves excellent Japanese food including a great range of sushi. It’s not too expensive, especially the bento boxes which are terrific value.
The décor in here is very cool and sort of hard to desribe — so I guess you’ll just have to go and see for yourself. The main point of interest is the floor/​seating.
Service is faultless. Definitely recommended.
