Tokimeite is one of those new fangled trendy, high end(#expensive) restaurants but damn do I love them. As a table of 4 we ordered two portions of the £55 tasting menu plus a couple of starters to share between us which turned out to be more than enough. Pretty much all the dishes were delicious and packed with flavour apart from — maybe surprisingly — the sushi which was bland and just not. great. The bill including drinks came up to £65/person even with our somewhat stingy ordering so it’s definitely not one of your everyday restaurants. It’s a great place to come if you’re looking to bond over the sharing of delicious food though. And the set menu is definitely worth it although there is a minimum 2 person order.
Yui I.

Right in the heart of the shopping district on Conduit street just inside of Regent street, is the new Japanese restaurant founded by Yoshihiro Murata, who apparently has 7 Michelin stars across three restaurants in Japan. The ambience is very modern/chic and the staff are very attentive and friendly. They have two drinks menu which was a bit confusing, so ask if you don’t see the cocktails list. With the four of us we went for two of the £55 tasting menu and shared a few other starters. The tasting menu is definitely worth it, with a whole variety of wagyu beef tar tar for starters, sashimi, mackerel to seared wagyu beef steak and grilled salmon for main including sushi and desserts to finish it up. The desserts were so cute and tasty, I would definitely recommend the matcha panna cotta. It ended up being just over £60 per person so it’s on the steeper end but it was worth it!
