Sushi Show, Shoreditch

Kaz Tateishi's second counter, on Bethnal Green Road, and nobody has written about this one yet.1

Why go

The record is about the other room. Harden's survey text filed under this postcode describes Camden Passage, calling Tateishi's shop conscientious and consistent and saying a meal there always feels like money well spent, and then adds: There is now a second outlet in Shoreditch.1

Kaz Tateishi runs both doors. Nobody has published a word about this one.

Order this / avoid

  • Order: at the counter, cut to order, or take a box away. Both doors are set up for it.1
  • Avoid: Monday, when it is shut, and avoid reading Islington's reviews as this room's.

What locals & experts say

  • Harden's, on the Islington original: Kaz Tateishi's conscientious and consistent sushi shop where a meal always feels like money well spent.1
  • On this room: nothing. Nobody has written about Bethnal Green Road.

Good to know

  • Where: 136 Bethnal Green Road E2 6DG. Shoreditch High Street is five minutes.
  • Closed Monday.
  • The other door: 28 Camden Passage, Islington, which is the original and has its own entry here.

Verdict

could-visit — Kaz Tateishi's second room, on Bethnal Green Road, and the honest thing to say is that nobody has written about it. Harden's files a page under this postcode and then reviews Camden Passage on it, calling that room 'conscientious and consistent' and worth the money, before noting there is now a second outlet in Shoreditch. That praise is the original's and this entry does not borrow it. What is established is the operator, the address, the closed Monday and a counter set up for eating in or taking away. The rung reflects a reasonable bet on the same hands rather than anything anybody has tasted here.

Order

  • Nigiri cut to order at the counter, which is what the operator is known for at the Islington original
  • A takeaway box, since both doors are set up for it

At a glance

  • Booking: walk-in
  • Timing: lunch, dinner, closed mon, closes early
  • Best for: lunch, dinner, solo, quick

Legado3◆

Destination · Spanish · Shoreditch · $$$$

booking essential

The kitchen is built around two wood-fired ovens hand-made in Segovia and shipped over, plus a two-tier charcoal Josper, and what comes out of them is whole suckling pig and milk-fed lamb (CODE Hospitality, April 2026).

MantecaBib

Solid · Italian nose-to-tail · Shoreditch · $$$

booking essential

They break whole carcasses in the building, cure the salami themselves, and the whey left over from making the ricotta goes into the caramel on the chocolate tart (Manteca, Hot Dinners).

Waltz

Solid · Japanese cocktail bar · Shoreditch · $$$

book ahead

The Evergreen half of the list is built on "re-distilling, centrifugal clarification, fermentation and carbonation," and the other half rotates against Japan's historic calendar of 72 micro-seasons, so the menu changes roughly weekly on one page and never on the other (CLASS).

walk-in

The kitchen makes the udon and the dashi from scratch every morning, and the bowl a critic called one of the great modern London dishes is a full English cooked into it.

Humble Chicken

Destination · Yakitori tasting · Soho · $$$$

booking essential

Angelo Sato opened this Frith Street room in 2021 as a casual yakitori bar, turned it into a tasting counter in 2023, and had two Michelin stars by February 2025.

HIMI

Solid · Japanese izakaya · Soho · $$$

book ahead

The nigiri arrives with house-made pickled fennel instead of gari, and the reviewer who noticed said she preferred it, which tells you more about this kitchen than the three-star kitchens its chefs came out of (London on the Inside).
