Kintan is the first authentic Japanese style yakiniku in London. Yakiniku is a Japanese term that literally translates to “grilled meat.” It has a long-standing history and a strong presence in Japanese cuisine. Our restaurant features a built-in smokeless roaster at each table which enables fun and interactive dining where our guests become the chefs.

    The staff were very friendly and I don't know if we caught them on an off day but it was very hard to gain their attention to ask for extra drinks or anything. Waiting time is what bought the rating down. Value for money and the experience was really fun!

    First time visiting so not sure what to expect - excellent food and service with very helpful staff who explained everything. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would return. Monday happy hour all day is a great incentive to visit there at the start of the week. Thanks for an enjoyable evening! 😀

    Despite coming to this restaurant for years and always having great experience I would give this particular experience 1 star as cannot give 0, due to the appalling service we received. We been served apparently by the manager and it was terrible. Only because of her I would not come back to this restaurant again.
