Machiya - Menu

delicious food and super service. inflamed to have found this restaurant- will soon be back!

I came here mainly for their green tea desserts. For the main dishes I wanted they didn’t have available, so I resort to ordering something I didn’t really want and I didn’t enjoy it much since it wasn’t my first choice or second choice. Lucky the green tea desserts saved the day and the sweet service.

We went there after seeing the reviews and pictures of the food, but were utterly disappointed with what we got. The food looked and tasted basic/bland. While eating the food, all I thought was that I could 've made a better dish myself at home and didn 't even finish the dish. Although the Matcha Crepe was delicious which is why it 's not a 1 star.

I was really craving for Japanese food and found this spot near the theater on my way back to the hotel. I ordered bunch of thing but half of it was decent but another half was pretty bad. Especially the quality of rice was very bad. Gyudon was also very dry too. Tho eggplant and tsukune was good so if u go there, I recommend to order just small dishes and no main dish.

The strawberry crepe cake is going to lure me back here soon!! It's the perfect sweetness and creaminess to end the meal Wait! I haven't even talked about the meal yet! Started with the agadashi tofu and karage. Both were good. For the main course I ordered the beef rice bowl (without the egg) and my husband had the curry chicken katsu. Both were solid dishes! Plentiful, well executed and perfectly cozy on a cold winter day.

We went there yesterday for dinner and were totally amazed! The atmosphere of this place is absolute authentic. We've had the Misoshiru and Chicken Katsu Curry and both was simply perfect. As a special we also had the Wagyu Beef for the first time ever and we were amazed! The homemade ginger soda was also very delicious and I will try to make it at home. The team was so friendly and always smiling. It was our last evening in London and also something like a special day for us and we couldn't had a better dinner. We will definetly visit again when we're the next time in London. A big thank you to the whole team!

Loved this place. Managed to snag the last table you really need to book and we were glad to have done so, it’s really popular and the place is very small. The back has izakaya style bench dining and then there are about 8 tables of two in the main area. We had the chicken katsudon, gyudon, salmon teriyaki and agedashi tofu. The quality was great and it’s not too expensive for Japanese food. You do get a good amount, so it’s pretty good value for money. The only drawback is that since it’s so popular there’s a constant stream of people asking for tables and standing around waiting. Great problem to have as a restaurant but a bit disruptive for diners.

Machiya is a small Japanese restaurant with a friendly bunch of staffs. The food was average to good the images include Oyakon (Chicken and Egg with Rice) and a Pork Katsu Curry. The portion is slightly smaller than other places and to others may not be as filling. However, the pork curry was delicious, curry was a light, tasty dish. Oyakon was average, was not anything special than just egg and chicken on top of rice. Could include more as this dish was £13. The interior and sesting below were beautiful; an outstanding space for such a small area. There could be more use for downstairs seating as it was a little darker and felt quite peaceful and romantic if seated here! My favourite part w...

Not much options on the food menu for selection but the appetisers are good. The soysauce cucumber can get a bit too salty, but is nice. The spinach with sesame is definitely a hit and the fried tofu is good. I'd go for the unagi as it was well cooked. Environment wise is nice. Very quiet during weekdays and the food is quite authentic. Dont forget to try the mille crepe matcha cake. Its thick and creamy. The only thing I didn't like was the Asian waitress had quite the attitude. Was not knowledgeable in Japanese food to be able to answer my questions and acted cocky when answering wrongly. Was also a bully towards my European friends when she kept pushing them to tell them what kind of gree...
