I pass by this place many times a week on my way to work or just into the high street. My girlfriend and I have a tradition of eating japanese food after watching a movie so this place provided an excellent place to fufill that when we found Inamo full and Sushi Salsa too far to walk
If you come here, you must try the Calpis (Rather unfortunate pronounciation there but it is what it is). I found it tasted like Calpol the kids medicine so not for me but still very glad I tried it.
Lovely staff, couple of young lads - one of them pointed out we'd ordered starter Miso Soup but that our mains came with Miso so he saved us some money there which was very honest and helpful.

I’d like to share our experience of dining at this friendly Japanese restaurant in North London.
On Wednesday 10th September 2025, we booked a table at Seto, a place well known within the Japanese community. It was highly recommended to us by our friend Lisa, who is of Japanese origin. I ordered a miso soup, and it was absolutely delicious.

My personal belief is that if a chef can make a fantastic meal just from vegetables, then that chef is a real chef. So I ordered a vegetarian ramen and yasai gyoza. Let me tell you something, I have been to many Japanese restaurants and this is the best of them all, especially taking the price into consideration. Another thing, service was top notch. Very polite and everyone spoke Japanese. This may come as a surprise but I struggle to find Japanese restaurants that have Japanese people working in them. So this was a huge plus for me and I managed to strike a conversation with the staff and fellow customers which was delightful. I felt like I was back in Japan again which is always a good thing. In conclusion, fantastic food, great location, and brilliant service. HIGHLY...
