Fabulous! Absolutely fabulous. The food was so good and so creative. The mocktails were unique and the dessert was divine. Probably the best meal we had in London! Service was exceptional.
Beautiful evening out for a birthday celebration. The staff went above and beyond to cater to everyone, from reservations to bartenders and floor staff, every single person made it an incredibly special night. Absolutely no issues with our groups dietary restrictions, there were many delicious options for those gluten-free. The music, food, drinks and atmosphere was incredible. My third time at Aqua, and we will definitely be back again. Big thank you to everyone for making such a special night.
I’ve been to Aqua Kyoto twice and really enjoyed both visits. The first time we had the set menu inside, great quality food and the service was excellent !!! The second time was for my friend’s birthday on a Sunday and we sat on the rooftop, which was beautiful. I loved it, but there was no DJ that day, so next time I’ll make sure to go on a Friday or Saturday. Still, such a great spot.
Came to Aqua Kyoto some time ago and wanted to leave this review. I went here with my cousin and brother, we ordered from the set menu. Food was amazing. An absolute experience with the flavours and how the food was presented. With each meal that arrived to the table, our server would take time to explain what the dish was and how it was made. It was a great fine dining experience. The service was impeccable and the vibes and decoration/atmosphere of the restaurant were really nice. Would highly recommend.
We came here for our anniversary dinner and decided to go with the Kyoto Nights set menu. The menu starts off with a wide range of starters as well as the bottomless drinks. We were genuinely surprised at the amount of starters, as we would have expected less. We were then brought the unlimited sushi as well as the mains. The sushi was amazing - you could note the use of fresh fish, and the variety of rolls for an unlimited set. However, I feel like the steak (the main we chose) could have benefitted from a more tender texture, as it felt chewy at times. Although the desserts were small, they were up to standard with everything else we had. Overall, the staff was very kind, and we got a surprise dessert as part of our anniversary (not included in the menu). The price for this set menu is high, but definitely worth it for an occasion!
Exceeded expectations!! The place is great, wonderful ambience. Service is on top. Thank you to the people taking care about our experience. Food was exceptional. Very delicious, flavourful, beautiful served. We went for brunch option and I would say it was a lot of food. You have 1 main (mushroom fried rice is top recommended), starters to share, side dish and unlimited sushi. All is fresh, delicious. Definitely place to come back again.
One of the best sushi I had in London. I had high expectations for this restaurant and it was even better than my expectations. The nigiri was so fresh and tasty that I could eat all of it by myself. The desert was a plus too. Amazing presentation and the tasty did not disappoint. The atmosphere and service were amazing too. I can’t wait to go back for Aqua Kyoto! Highly recommend it.
Me and a friend did the bottomless brunch menu. Paying the additional 42 for the prosecco and cocktails. Firstly, the staff were really attentive and kind to us. Our glasses were continuously topped up. And I absolutely loved the Paloma frozen cocktail, it was delicious!! The food was really tasty and I loved the different varieties, not having to choose what to order, so getting to try things we wouldn’t necessarily choose. We opted for the steak for our mains and it was lovely! We would definitely return again as a special occasion. We paid 115 each including service.
