As said in the title this place never fails to impress us. The food is always fresh, the service always quick and with a smile and it is really good value for London prices.

Have visited this restaurant many times and have never been disappointed. The service is always professional and efficient. We visited today after appalling service at a nearby restaurant. We started with eel nigiri which was fantastic, the eel just melted in my mouth. The other starter was deep fried soft shelled crab in a sushi roll which was again fantastic.... More

I came here with the craving for noodles, but then struggled to decide on what to eat as the menu selection offers a wide variety of foods, from Japanese to Malaysian to Thai to Chinese. My friend and I ended up with sushi, 1 Japanese soup noodle dish and 1 Malaysian soup noodle dish. It was ALOT of food as... More

Simply put, out of all the Hare & tortoises I love this branch... More

I had the ebi katsu curry one time and the curry latsa another time. The curries were flavourful but not so "spicy hot" that it'll... More

I have been to Hare and Tortoise so many times. It's such a good place to eat because the food is totally delicious, generously portioned and really very cheap. I love the choice of having sushi or hot dishes or both depending on my mood. The sushi is fantastic, the soft shell crab a real highlight and the beef in... More

Been going for the past 2 years and it still has good selection of Asian food
