Aki review by Chris
Having frequented Izakayas more or less nightly during 3 years living in Japan, my return to London was frustrated by the absence of decent Japanese eateries.
The market seemed to be carved up between soulless conveyor belt places a la yo! sushi or snobby Japanese Restaurants, serving haughty dishes at prices which seemed to assume the days of the fat-walleted 80's salarymen never ended.
So what a joy to finally find Aki's. A slightly tacky yet cozy decor, specials tacked up on random bits of paper on the wall, friendly staff, cold beer - if it's authenticy you're looking for, I haven't found anywhere better yet.
I'd agree, though, that prices are a bit steep, meaning this is a place to eat out, rather than frequent.
