We ordered a tuna steak bento box and we got pork instead. I called the restaurant and explained we received our order with a wrong meat. The lady who made our food tried to convince us that this is tuna. I told her the taste is definitely not a tuna taste but she insisted that it was indeed tuna. The taste was not tuna, nor was the texture! Of course, anyone can make mistakes, but being seen as stupid is a lot! They did not want to solve my problem at all just keep saying that is a tuna. This is not the first time we have ordered this. Last time the tuna steak was different. As everyone can see in this pictures this is not tuna. I asked one of my friend who is a chef what he thinks about it and he said the same. My partner could not have his lunch because he doesn’t eat pork. What's even better they didn't even want to give compensation for this bad experience!! This so rude! They only want the money and the satisfaction of the guest is no longer of interest to them. Reply to the owner : Why would I say it wasn't tuna? Why would I say that?? And what about the taste and texture?? I hope everyone in the kitchen knows what kind of meat to use for a tuna steak, or at least it would be good if they had a good eyes.
Great quality food for a very reasonable price. The staff are friendly and helpful! The food is always out quickly and tastes absolutely delicious. I go here a few times a month - my favourite restaurant in Balham!Food: 5/5
My review is based off a tuna steak bento box. A Google images search of "tuna steak bento" is what I was expecting. The tuna was in thin slices, cooked to very well done and then drowned in teriyaki sauce making it impossible to taste. The rice was soggy, pickled ginger dry and edamame unwashed. For 22 pounds I was looking forward to a nice meal but Sainsbury's quality is higher
I’ve been to Taro several times and the food is consistently delicious. Some the freshest sushi I’ve had and loads of food to fill you for the price. Very authentic Japanese menu which I’ve enjoyed exploring, the lunch time offer helps with this. The service is a bit slow but the staff are really nice. Nice music as well. Will keep visiting Kid-friendliness: Kids menu has lots to chose from so very good for the picky eaters! No waste as the food is delicious
The food was very dissapointing. We had two Bento boxes, the sashimi was cut in huge chunks and roughly. The rice under my grilled salmon was overcooked and soft and my plum wine came in a champagne glass I have no idea why. I was expecting a great experience as I had been to the one in Soho. One of the chef's kept coughing too whilst cooking which wasn't the best feeling after being served food to eat. This was very dissapointing experience!
Ordered from Uber eats and rarely do I enjoy a meal enough from there to leave a review however Taro was excellent. The portion sizes of the bento boxes are perfect and the packaging means everything arrived as intended. Very quick delivery and everything tasted super fresh. If you want a take out but don't want to feel horrible after I'd give Taro a go!
We went for dinner here on a weeknight. The food was quick, delicious and fresh - we ordered several different items including fish, veggie and cooked meat/fish sushi, gyoza, salad and tempura prawns. The portions were all decent sizes for the money and the plating of the food was appealing. Whilst service was fast, the only constructive feedback I’ve give is that we specified three items to come as starters but actually received our food in a completely different and random order. As a further suggestion, it would be great if they could serve 0% beer such as Asahi Super Dry 0% on the menu to give pregnant people like me and other non-alcoholic drinkers the option to enjoy Japanese beer with their meal. Vegetarian options: Sushi, veggie tempura, dumplings, salads, hot noddle and rice dishes Dietary restrictions: There’s a balanced selection of dishes that could accommodate vegans, veggies, pescatarians and also those not looking to eat gluten in rice or noodles. Kid-friendliness: Options on the menu specifically for children.
What a gem of a restaurant! Some of the best Japanese food I have ever had. The sushi and sashimi were very fresh and clean. Everything was beautifully presented. Huge choice of dishes. The chefs worked skilfully and quickly. Service was friendly and efficient. Not expensive! Good atmosphere and not surprised to see a steady stream of takeaways being sent out. A great find!
Really good quality food, especially the fried chicken. Very very annoying to have to fight our way into the restaurant through a big crowd of Deliveroo drivers all waiting in their helmets at the door where a poor member of staff was frantically trying to control the situation, occasionally shouting at them to get out. The drivers also stared at us and the food. Overall felt like we were competing for service with a hundred people not even in the restaurant and so the service really suffered and it took a long time to get anything. Food is of very good quality and tasty, except the octopus balls which were gross. Excellent value. Would recommend to the restaurant that diners in the restaurant should be given priority, but I imagine they make much more money on take out.
Small local sushi spot. This place is my go to when I can’t decide what I want to eat or when I want to dine alone. I love warm sushi and plum wine so it’s what I usually get. I have tried other things on the menu and no complaints.Food: 5/5
