"We took a small group for lunch at Pasha to celebrate the 83rd birthday of family friend. The service was super friendly from the moment we entered the restaurant until we left. The small front of house team (manager and one waiter) were efficient, friendly and attentive. The food was very nice and the portions a good size. I would highly recommend this restaurant."See more

"We had a nice low-key meal of sashimi & tempura. Simple but tasty. Portions were ok, but the quality balanced that out. They have some interesting & refreshing bottled Japanese beers too and the place seemed thriving!"See more

"Slight wrinkle in that OpenTable did not know that the restaurant does not open until 6:00PM, but the host called us well in advance to ask if we still wanted to dine with them. Our 7:30 curtain at Sadler's Wells theater made it essential to dine from 6:00PM to 7:10PM, and we had a wonderful meal, including dessert (but we elected to skip coffee) in that amount of time - without rushing. Superb service made that possible. The food was magnificent, no wonder it's so hard to book. Also, there are only about 12 or 15 tables! It was a great pleasure to eat at Oldroyd."See more

"Fantastic dining experience! Booked on the day for a last minute birthday celebration. On entering the ambience of the restaurant was great. We were welcomed straight away by a senior member of staff to a booth specially selected for us due to the special occasion. The service was excellent, with good food recommendations and the staff were extremely attentive without being overbearing. The food was amazing, there is a great menu choice - you know it’s good when you can’t settle on what to have, it all sounded delicious! And the quality of the ingredients were fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised to discover such a good find in a gem of a restaurant so close to home. Our evening was even ended with a little birthday surprise dessert which made the recipients day. A wonderful experience and we will definitely be back!"See more
