    It’s always a stellar meal and excellent dining experience at Izakaya Midori. The food and presentation and the fact that it’s all plant based are the reasons we keep going back. Well done again to the chefs and staff. KUTGW.

    Will definitely go again! The staff and ambience were fantastic. It was a relaxing aesthetically pleasing restaurant/bar. The food was 11/10. We had the Zen Garden high tea. It was enough food for two and so delicious. Served with tea and prosecco - both also delicious. The price was very fair and I have no complaints. I recommend this place to anyone wanting delicious food, a celebration or even a quiet and delicious meal whilst you work (there were others in the bar at the tome working in their laptops and eating). The staff were so friendly and attentive, without being over bearing. This seems like a great place to just go for a drink as well.
