what the critics say

TimeOut - 4/5

Tuesday, February 23, 2010 - The food is great whether you go for raw or cooked - a salmon selection box of maki, nigiri and sashimi or a chicken katsu curry donburi. Especially tasty and very good value is the eight-segment scallop-and-avocado roll sprinkled with togarashi (Japanese chilli pepper). No thought has been spared on the design either...A little gem that compensates in a small but elegantly formed way for the recent demise of Rossi's caff next door. NB: weekend opening is planned 'in the near future'.

I registered to defend Japanika's honour! The chicken Katsu is legendary and consistently the tastiest lunch in town. The staff are efficient and friendly, not overly familiar but perfectly civil. The sushi is decent, but the Katsu is clearly king here.

This place was amazing when it first opened with people lining up out on to the street for their Katsu Curry. However now it has gone from fantastic to what has happened here?

The staff are not smiling at all, the food is lacking flavour and taste, the choice of food is limited and my curry was on the shelf at least for 4 hours, horrible!!!
