Chisou Sushi and IzakayaA-

22-23 Woodstock St, London W1C 2AR · Japanese restaurant, Authentic Japanese restaurant, Izakaya restaurant · The West End

Quality-focused Mayfair sushi and izakaya with standout fish and engaged service, priced on the high side; excellent for sushi lovers, but time limits, occasional service lapses, and mixed value perceptions exist.

The verdict

Chisou Sushi and Izakaya earns its A- grade through exceptional food quality—particularly praised for fresh sashimi and balanced nigiri—paired with attentive, knowledgeable service. The convenient Mayfair location and elegant presentation enhance the experience, though tight seating and occasional consistency variations prevent grade A territory. Premium pricing and isolated food safety reports further temper the overall standing.

One caveat: Pricing is genuinely expensive (£20+ mains, £30+ omakase nigiri) which may surprise casual diners
