Chotto Matte - Carta

We tried the £25 prix fixe menuThe food came out very quickly and there was quite a lot of it (we were stuffed!) but the food was a bit meh.

Arrived due to some recommendations from friends and we love Japanese food so had to try. The place is in a great location and has a great vibe, the toilet visit was a show

Amazing food and drinks, very creative menu and fresh food. Great service, staff are very friendly and the overall atmosphere is nice. Located in the heart of Soho and srounded by many bars. Recommend booking in advance as it can get very busy. Ver carta

Amazing experience at Chotto Matte. Staff were attentive and eager to ensure we picked a delicious combination of sharing plates. Sushi was ample and fresh. The best dish was the pulled mushroom tostadas which again were generously portioned. The atmosphere was perfect.

The food quality varied especially given the small portion sizes and price point. Between the three of us, we shared the Nikkei gyoza (good), yellowtail sashimi and tuna tataki (both ok), dragon roll, soft shell crab roll (both full of flavour), the pulpo (very salty and the flavour didn't work) and the Japanese soufflé cheesecake (not a standout). The cocktail I had (yuzu martini) was very good. The food was initially slow to arrive but overall our waiter was very friendly.

Went here for a birthday celebration with friends. We chose various items from the menu and the menu was good, music was loud. All items come out at different times and some items were cold. The padron peppers, lychee ceviche, mushroom tostadas were great. Waiting staff were friendly and helpful. One major negative point is that if you bring a cake from outside then they charge you a cake-age fee of £5 per person and this is not mentioned anywhere until you turn up to the restaurant. Definitely not worth the money. Unfortunately, we wouldn’t rush back here. Ver carta

The entire dining experience was exceptional! We were served with kindness and the staff shared their knowledge of the food and pairings. They recommended 5-6 dishes per person and we left very full so I would say 4-5 depending on what you ordered. We ordered 2-3 dishes from each section of the a la carte menu. What we really enjoyed: La Chakana cocktail Otoro Aburi nigiri Black cod ahi miso Arroz chaufa Yellowtail Nikkei Sashimi Maguro tuna nigiri &Otoro nigiri We wouldn’t get the Wagyu beef gyoza or the Spicy chicken karage again because it was not worth the price for the taste and wasn’t as unique as the other parts of the order. The sushi quality and ingredients were fresh and dressed to...

Booked here very last minute (morning of) via phone call and they were lovely felt lucky for a Saturday evening! I booked initially for 7 but had extras come along which they graciously accommodated for. It was for my birthday and our main waiter who took care of us, Ilyas, was great! He explained everything well and was attentive in service. All the waiting staff were lovely. I got 2 sparkler candles with my desserts for my birthday like I asked and can say my guests and I all enjoyed the food immensely and some have already said they will be returning soon. I loved the octopus most and the purple mash was delicious! Passionfruit creme brulee was divine and I sneaked a taste of my husband's...

The venue is lovely, the music was great and the food was exceptional, however we had a few issues with the service. Firstly, our waiter disappeared after bringing us some of our food and never came back. When I queried it with another member of staff (after waving wildly several times at other staff), he laughed and said oh well you have a new one now . For the prices you pay in a premium venue, this is not good enough. I would have expected a handover before he left. I made him reduce the standard tip from 15% to less than that, as I was not impressed. Secondly, he failed to mention that if you order 4 or 5 things, they all come at the same time and don 't fit on the table, so they nearly... Ver carta
