Jimmy Spices World Buffet (Epsom)

I must echo what most others have written - the Indian food is pretty good and really worth piling up on. The rest is poor - bland imitations of Italian and far Eastern food. Perhaps good for a group who cannot agree on what to eat, but otherwise avoid.

Good service for a buffet.

Wagamama (Wimbledon)

It's Wagamama - what do you expect? If you are after authentic ramen, try somewhere else. Note the absence of Japanese clientèle.

Toko Diner

Very good. It clearly is not Japanese, but pan-Asian. All are very good. I was impressed by the Japanese dishes - so many of the "Japanese" restaurants in London, run by Chinese/Vietnamese, are very poor. This is an exception - authentic and delicious and up there with food I have eaten in Japan.

The South East Asian food was also excellent and the staff friendly. Toko is a reason for travelling to Morden, and there are not many.

Ikkyu

This is one of the best Japanese restaurants in London - as you can see on a early on a weekday night when it is packed with Japanese.

The food and atmosphere is utterly authentic of a downtown izakaya, complete with the hustle and bustle. A Japanese friend remarked when we went there that this was the first time in London that he had felt like he was actually back in Japan.

The food is delicious and great value for money. I would warn that it may not be the first choice for those not terribly familiar with Japanese food or who prefer it with a western twist. You won't find teriyaki chicken on the menu! Also, it is closed on Saturday.
