Japanese Culinary Art Isshin Murakai Main Shop

I bought bibigo Kim chi 500g after we eat couple hours later me and my family we all had a terrible stomach acheNext couple day later I thought I cook the Kim chi and again I got the worst symptom stomach pain. Be careful, it's not worth it.

Quite busy, but the sushi gets discounted later in the day and is absolutely worth getting if you're quick enough. Also a great place to take someone who keeps reminiscing about the last time they visited Japan, it's a great little collection of a lot of things that will take you right back.

A pretty great selection of goods, the interior is also really nice!

A bit hit or miss. Mostly miss.I went here initially to get some groceries, but didn't find half the things I needed. Their dry goods selection is fine, but produce/fish is pretty abysmal. Ended up just picking up a bunch of snacks and some sake. We also had a bite to eat when we were there. I think we got sukiyaki and takoyaki? It was not memorable at all and I probably wouldn't come here for food in the future.

Great variety of Japanese to-go food such as sushi, mochi balls or other food wear such as noodles, rice, oils and gifts including plushies and books. Interesting to browse around, although some items are quite expensive in comparison to other shops (why I haven’t scored 5*). Always great to pop in, and the staff are very friendly. I’ve purchased from the Japan centre online, and they dispatch / deliver very quickly.

Pricey but only place can buy sparkling sake off the shelf

Better (brill) than you'd expect for a random Soho Japanese spot

You can get some food at lower ground. Less expensive, but not very tasty. 😔Anyway, it is good for someone to grab something to eat quickly during break time.

Fresh food is nice, and it goes on sale when late (8pm or so). A lot of groceries are very pricey, and some of them could be found at other asian supermarket. But it’s clean in there.

A bit more pricey than expected (as some items you could get from Amazon for cheaper) but the store has a variety of original Japanese goods which definitely deliver in terms of quality and uniqueness!

Very busy on a Saturday and a little expensive. The goods are very marked up compared to their origin prices but that’s the point of place like this, it offers products you very unlikely to see in Europe or the US. The bakery items are fresh and tasty and there is a cafe serving a variety of food hall styles dishes. Excellent!

A hidden jewel underground. I was so sad I'm not a student for the student discount 🤣 but friendly staff working there. Very neat and the toilets was very clean. Will come back again when I visit London

This place is fabulous for their fresh food at affordable price. Nigiri and sushi are excellent, like their melon pan and mochis. Groceries are expensive but understable as it's imported from Japan.

Love this shop, being into Japanese food and being able to buy all of the niche items that I need to cook recipes I have found. They have loads of snack items and confectionery, their fresh mochi is great too!!

If you are looking for Japanese cooking ingredients this is the place. Nice food area as well.
