   The sushi and sashimi are high grade and delicious, portions are perfect as well. The Geisha combo is a must for nigiri lovers if you want the full variety, and I adored the hotate carpaccio, which was a perfect balance of sweetness, freshness and acidity with the ponzu sauce. The staff are also very kind and attentive. Looking forward to visiting soon again.

   All the food we ate was delicious, special mention goes to tempura king prawns and the BBQ belly of pork. Lovely restaurant, we found the tables are so close together, but we ended up chatting to a lovely couple next to us so all okay in the end!

   Nice cosy restaurant with delicious food and implacable service. They treated me with a matcha tiramisu cake at the end of the meal because it was my birthday.

   We have visited Matsuba many times and their food is great. We were one of the first table to be served and the table was cleared at 18h50. From then we did not see a waiter until we went to pay at 20h00. We wanted pudding but went to Venchi fo an ice cream. What happened was a constant stream of uber eats and Deliveroo drivers who were served instead of the customers. The owners need to make a decision are they a take away restaurant or a fine dinning restaurant. You cannot be both in such a small space. I feel the takeaway algorithm is their customer now, not the patron making the effort to make a booking and dine at the restaurant. Good luck being an upmarket takeaway, not sure we will return if this continues.

   Superb lunch at Matsuba, a lovely find for a birthday lunch. Would thoroughly recommend the black cod and Matsuba rolls.
