    Best way to try wagyu. The different cuts a small servings make it a more tasteful experience than struggling through one large steak. The rice was amazing. Buzzing and the perfect place to impress a date or have a special meal. Pricey but it’s London and worth it

    Expectations were high, but the experience was disappointing. We went with the a la carte menu, and most of the dishes we got had wagyu. The meat quality was ok, but doubt it was A5 as its marketed by the restaurant. Food was average and very pricey. We also had the steak cooked on our table, and the smoke was all over the place so we couldnt breath. Service was really poor, constantly forgetting stuff with highlight being forgetting to tell us the kitchen was closing so we couldn’t order desserts. Wouldnt go back.

    Best Wagyu in London.. Grilled to perfection on your table. A phenomenal experience and the taste is incredible. The set menu is a must. The sake choice is expensive but certainly cannot complain too much. The grill team of servers were superb and really knew the how and the why. thank you again for a fab lunch. Definitely on the visit again list.

    Had an amazing Omakase Lunch. All the dishes were amazing, Hans looked after us and explained each course which was good. Kampai classic was an amazing choice for our anniversary!
