Ikanji Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in Great Britain

Updated September 2023. Why? Well, because Ikanji now do an 'All You Can Eat' Menu of 18 dishes (photo of menu shown) which we tried and I have to say were brilliant! They have jiggled around the running order of the dishes over the past few months, putting all of the Maki dishes with the lower numbers, first and with the 'larger' dishes towards the end. I don't know why really, but here is a tip or two..... Don't start with number 1 (Miso soup) and plan to work your way through the menu numerically. Maki, as you may know, is rolled (in seaweed) rice with a central filling (Photo). So you will eat a lot of rice and be full well before the 'larger' dishes start. You order 3 dishes at a time, so Miso soup and perhaps a couple of Maki to start. Then order 3 more dishes. I call them 'larger' but all of the dishes are a decent size really, not mere taster portions. We have been to Ikanji several times now, and it is always excellent tasting food. Previous Review: Dined in with a party of three. An authentic Japanese food experience . We ordered a range of dishes, and each one was delicious. Fine dining really. That means you are getting good quality for which you pay a bit more. However, as long as you feel that you are getting value for money, then I think that is fair enough. A nice environment with pleasant multi-lingual staff (if you fancy practising your Japanese). We will be...

Tried the new Ikanji Japanese restaurant in Weston this evening. They only opened last week but wow. For those that know Chef Joey and Chef Richard from @yoji_japanese days you won’t be disappointed. Staff all very friendly and attentive. Some may still be training but they have some good teachers. Portions were large and the food was tasty. The maki and sashimi were lovely. As fans of the spicy tuna maki we’ve been left disappointed.recently by others attempts at it but this tonight packed a good kick to it as we wanted. Lots of old favourite abs new dishes to try on the menu. The fried ice cream I filmed was for another table. Absolutely gutted we hadn’t ordered it as it looked and apparently tasted amazing. Highly recommend and will definitely be back. Just wish we knew where they’d hidden Bobby San. Good luck guys in your...

I have to say that we were waiting for this place to open with anticipation as we love Japanese food. Unfortunately during our visit we all thought that food was just OK. We were bit disappointed really. Meals lacked of flavour and seasoning. Especially Katsu curry sauce, really bland, lack of flavour. Chicken was very nice but Katsu sauce should be star of the dish and it wasn’t. Same with other meals, OK but we were not impressed at all, sorry. Saying that after our meals we thought that meals were overpriced for what was served. Not sure we will come back. Competition in Weston is strong and we will definitely go back to usual Japanese (Sakura) which so far was consistently good. Good luck tho. Hope that was just one bad day in...
