Great food. The raw sashimi were very fresh. Service was excellent. Quantities were rather big, especially for a Japanese restaurant. Probably one of my favourite jap in L town.

This was a great find! The food was simply incredible and the wine was very good to for house wine! The service could be slightly better as there was hardly any talking by them but that didn't spoil our dining experience. I'd recommend the beef teriyaki!

Excellent food, and service as always. The sushi is so fresh and delicious, not cheap but worth every penny. Great location to pop into when you are in the Oxford Circus area - best to book if there are more than 4 of you.

I used to come to this restaurant when i lived in London about 10 years ago I really enjoyed the restaurant and good thing was that this was open on Sunday as well. True Japanese Flavor was little less this time, probably restaurant is more focusing on Western customer but the quality of the food was outstanding But to be honest We needed something more special Overall very good Japanese restaurant for both Westerners and Japanese

I ordered several kinds of Sushi, but some of them came with more pieces and some of them came with less pieces. That hall staff could not receive our order correctly.

I have been a regular customer since Chisou first opened, so it is one of my favorite restaurants and I usually have sashimi. However today, I thought that the tuna sashimi on the lunchtime menu was not up to the usual standard and this was most unfortunate.

Excellent food. Very nice staff. No rushing if you want to linger which we did! One of our party had never eaten Japenese food and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very good food the prices go along with the place towards the expensive side but in general very good. Negative thing was that service was a little bit slow.

The food was appealing to the eyes, smell was inviting and the taste was nothing short of authentic Japanese! Service was friendly and helpful, and didn’t have to wait long from ordering to receiving my meal! Charles

Very friendly staff and tasty sushi, sashimi, small plates rec. My main criticism is the portion size and meat content in the grilled main dishes. Ridiculous.

The fish quality is really superb. The staff is also very friendly, but could be better trained to be consistent in Japanese manners. It used to be more Japanese.

The service was typically Japanese (subtly attentive) but as you would hope in any restaurant, the food was the star of the show. It was absolutely exceptional. Love the small plate (izakaya) style meal as you get to try lots of different things. Everything was great, but I have to mention the seared fatty tuna sashimi and the Gyu Tataki which I would never tire of eating. Price wise, all Japanese restaurants are relatively expensive and Chisou is no exception, but it is not excessively expensive. That said, the food is so good you don’t begrudge paying a little bit more.

The food is consistently good. It's our go to restaurant in London for good traditional Japanese food. Oishi desu! The service can be a little hit and miss sometimes but nothing that puts us off going back.

Dishes were great but serving was not perfect. For exemple, Tempura was served prior to sashimi, a little bit old wet towel etc. But overall great considering its location, price.

The team are so welcoming and polite, but better than that you get a real feeling of traditional Japanese hospitality. The food is exceptionally good too, the fish/rice balance on the sushi is perfect. Our waitress - Su - was just delightful. One of my favourite restaurants in London, all the quality without the unnecessary razzle dazzle if you get my drift!!

The restaurant's atmosphere was very Japanese, as seen by the mainly Japanese customers who spoke Japanese to the waiters. But even though we weren't their regular/main customers, the service towards us was really good. The food was pricey for the quality - the salmon wasn't the tastiest, and the chicken cutlet was only good for the price of £16.50. We chose from the pre-theatre menu, so the meals came with starters (soup and salad), a bowl of rice and orange for dessert. If you're willing to spend a bit more (i.e. >£20) then there is much more variety.

Chose the selections of sashimi/sushi plus tempura and a starter of edamame peas. All very fresh/good food with attentive but not over-intrusive service. I have been to Chisou a few times before and would not hesitate to do so again.
