Sushi Garden

I have been to this place about 5 times so far, and I find it so nice!!

cozy and friendly atmospher, excellent food, beautiful deco and professional staff.. score 10 of 10!

someone wrote that the manager did nothing but grunted to the staff, but I know her quite well but she is always friendly, never loses her smile to everybody. I love this place so much anyway!

Went there for lunch oneday, as the decor from the outside looked very appealing as my partner and I were walking up Preston Street. We walked in and was greeted quite promptly. There were only four other tables there, but the waitresses seemed like they were running around like headless chickens. Anyways, we orderd our drinks, but the girl that took our order did not speak very good English and had to come back and asked us what we ordered twice. My partner and I just raised a smile, she seemed polite enough and we can see se was really trying to make an effort. Though it was not busy we can see another lady wearing a black kimono, probably the manager as the other girls were wearing red grunting at the other girls and bossing them around in a rude way. My immediate thought was she should have been doing some work as she rarely seemed seemed to be doing anything there. The food came after a while wait, we chose some special katsu dishes and we also try something that I never heard of before, 'fusion sushi'. My all time favourite japanese dishes have always been katsus (breacrumbed meat on scrambled egg rice). I usually have this in Sakura in London. The katsu they did here was small, the pork was so thin it seemed like i was eating fried crumbs, and the rice was very dry. The fusion sushi looked quite good tho, tasted ok, but was smoothered in too much sauce to taste the freshness of the seafood. Their prawns and tuna tasted like frozen, rather then fresh, but the smoothering of sauce may have covered it. We finished and called for the bill. What was strange was that i paid more for the sushi (over £12 for one long roll) then for my rice dish. Sadly we paid over £35 for a very average meal, but we left a tip for the waitress as we felt sorry for her working so hard whilest the manager doing nothing. Then to find out that she has to share the tips with everybody including the boss and the chefs??!! We left feeling bemused...

I really like my Japanese food and have been to Sushi Garden several times, it's was a great find. Nice atmos, friendly and professional staff who were quick to correct mistakes, with a smile too. Quite a wide variety of dishes, I particularly like the Bento B - you get a good selection of sushi, sashimi and tempura. Food is reasonably priced and really tasty, would definitely recommend.
