    Service and food quality unfortunately changed, which is very sad to see. I would certainly expect more quality service and food compare to value. Shame I was looking forward to go back. There were many downsides, i hope they improve it.

    The restaurant is a bit small and guest couldn’t seat comfortably. Tight spacing and it is totally different from what you saw from the web site. Food was average and honestly my friend and I were expecting a bit more on the Omakase menu. We were still hungry after having the main. Staff was very nice and very helpful which made us feel welcome.

    We had £140 per head Omakaze however, there was a hair in the wagyu tartare. As my friend was visiting, I did not want to ruin her experience so I did not make a scene however, for how much it is, there should be better quality management. When showed them the hair, they gave us fresh beef tartare - but we had already eaten some of that £££ hair-infused beef tartare. Would not go back at all.

    I loved the whole experience at Engawa. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I don’t eat a lot of Japanese food, so I didn’t really know what to expect. My partner was very excited. The three piece Wagyu omakase was beautifully presented, from the amouse bouche to the beautifully prepared bento box right through to the Wagyu steak (which melted in my mouth like butter!) watching the chefs in the kitchen was a lot of a fun and to see the care they take with every plate is astonishing. It’s not easy on the wallet, but easier than other restaurants at this level. We also enjoyed a green tea, and some mochi which they out a candle in for my larger as it was her birthday. Personally I think a cup of green tea should be on the house… but then again it was beautiful green tea so maybe they need to recover that cost. Very happy, would recommend to others and would go again.
