Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Edo Izakaya offers "amazing food" with inventive sushi and a vibrant atmosphere. The lively spot boasts an impressive sake list and "fantastic" gyoza. While some found service inconsistent, the "excellent quality" and "delicious sashimi" keep guests coming back. Ideal for a meal before a Barbican event, it's well worth a visit.

Food was great - inventive and well presented. The atmosphere is very cold though, with harsh lighting - comes so close to being a fun inviting place but just misses the mark in the evening in terms of decor and ambience - but do go for the food - it’s knockout!

Beautiful sushi rolls, crudo, and sashimi along with well-made izakaya choices including tempura, gyoza, bai buns (fried chicken!) and an outstanding and satisfying kimchi rice bowl with a perfect egg. Service is attentive and kind and the room is modern and spacious. Delicious food, well priced! We really enjoyed our dinner before a concert at the Barbican.

Bad service , they tried to rush us out of the restaurant… if you don’t take tables at that time then don’t make reservations available. The food was very yummy but the workers seemed miserable and gave poor service.

Starters were good, but the rest was average at best and it was expensive for what it was.

Excellent food and service. Travelled from Manchester to visit this place and didn’t disappoint. Please open in Manchester as this would be a regular visit.

Really good food which was in a nice restaurant. The service was very good and I’d recommend it for the food quality. Easy to get to and back home as it’s so close to Old Street station. If you like sushi, this place is well worth trying out if you work and/or live near the area….

Good food and service. Reasonably priced for the quality and quantity. Small comment about the lighting- some of it shines directly in your eyes - can be easily remedied
