Aki
182 Gray's Inn Road, Holborn, London, WC1X 8EW
The non-descript interior at Aki does not deter their loyal customers and Japanese food lovers who are fascinated by the sheer enormity of the menu and the delicious cooking waiting to be discovered. Located close to Chancery Lane and Russell Square, you could step in and seek out specials of the day or just order a takeaway to enjoy within the confines of your home, whatever may be the case, the izakaya or Japanese bistro experience comes alive on Gray's Inn Road. Start with a deep fried fishcake with seaweed or minced pork dumplings, followed by a meaty main course of sukiyaki which is met with much anticipation as beef and vegetables are cooked at the table, with special Japanese sukiyaki soup, as is the beef teriyaki, Scotch strip sirloin steak grilled in teriyaki sauce.The non-descript interior at Aki does not deter their loyal customers and Japanese food lovers who are fascinated by the sheer enormity of the menu and the delicious cooking waiting to be discovered.

Nigiri, sashimi and sushi rolls are equally satisfying, and the delightful flavour of tekka-don, sushi rice topped with tuna marinated with Japanese tekka sauce, is certainly not to be missed.

REVIEWS OF Aki
Joe Heffernan (31 December 2008)
This is a lovely spot with very nice staff. The sushi and sashimi are very fresh and there is a nice low key but comfortable atmosphere.

Featured Group Restaurant
Nando's - Holborn
With quality food, friendly staff, quick service and excellent value for money, Nando's is a great place to eat. Don't expect identikit, pre-fab restaurant interiors which are usually a staple of the larger chains; each restaurant is tailored to its local surroundings and customers, offering up a unique restaurant experience to go with the equally unique taste of legendary, Portuguese, Peri-Peri chicken.
