Top Best Japanese Restaurants in The Lee

"Equal parts Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian, SUSHISAMBA – nestled high up on the 38th and 39th floors of 110 Bishopsgate – is the place to see and be seen in the heart of the City of London. Standing tall as the second-highest restaurant in London and with floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, this space beguiles its guests with its immersive views of the city at night. Order yourself a moqueca mista – a platter of jumbo shrimp, squid, sea bass and mussels with coconut milk, dende oil and chimichurri rice – and you’ll catch a feeling for why people fall in love with SUSHISAMBA."

"Sushisamba is always a hit for Asian dining, with excellent food (think Japanese with a South American twist) and stellar views at its City site. Located at the famed Opera Terrace atop the historic Grade II-listed Market Building, this striking space is crowned by an Eric Parry-designed glass roof. Bold in design, the restaurant offers a host of inviting dining and drinking experiences: from the bar with its ‘living ceiling’, the exposed kitchen and high energy sushi bar, to the terrace overlooking The Piazza below, and the private dining room with its own entrance and terrace."

"It’s located on the 38th and 39thfloors of the Heron Tower, and has epic 360 views over the City. Needless to say both the interior design and views are very photogenic. SushiSamba is also one of the most Instagrammable restaurants in London."

"There's something elegant almost Edwardian to its atmosphere, and you wouldn't be surprised to find London A-listers drifting through its doors. It's sleek and welcoming, and its sushi menu is near impossible to rival. Roka's Premium Tasting Menu will get you delicate treasures like yellowtail sashimi with yuzu-truffle dressing, and robust meat courses like smoked duck breast with barley miso and kumquats."

"If you and your kids have a taste for some good Japanese cuisine, then you can’t miss Roka. The staff is friendly and accommodating and the food is fresh and tasty. The interior is gorgeous but casual."

"Japanese , Sushi"

"This seven-seater on a Clerkenwell side street arguably serves the best sushi in town. Run by husband-and-wife team Harumi and Toru Takahashi, it is almost impossible to book. But when guests arrive at this shrine to sushi, they will find Toru expertly slivering and slicing smackingly fresh fish, visible from a counter-style bar."

"Clerkenwell’s Sushi Tetsu might be the hardest reservation to secure in London. That’s in part because there are only seven seats. It’s also because pound-for-pound, it serves the best (value) sushi in the city."

"You've definitely arrived when the maître d' hands you your very own Sexy Fish silver key-ring engraved with a VIP hotline number that allows you to reserve a table at short notice!. Failing that, book ahead and you may be sitting next to Kendall Jenner, Nicole Scherzinger, Ciara or Jennifer Lawrence here as you enjoy Asian-inspired fare at this opulent celebrity favourite."

"Ever the sexy spot, this restaurant and bar centres on East Asian food, late night bites and cracking cocktails. It's a numbers game here; not only are there over 400 bottles of Japanese of whisky, but there's even £1 million-worth of artwork by Frank Gehry and Damien Hirst."

"The one by Fortune Street ParkPham Sushi has two different locations – the one located by the Barbican Centre is tailor made for eat-in dining while their takeaway option up the road does much of the same dishes but without fussing about service. They even deliver too. Get around some fresh and simple sushi and sashimi, being sure to try some of the amazing seafood options."

"Japanese , Chinese"

"Japan and Peru may be nearly 10,000 miles away from each other, but they have more in common that you may think. When Japanese immigrants first arrived in the south American country in the 19th century, they discovered a mutual love of raw fish, which lead to the creation of the fusion nikkei cuisine. Soho restaurant Chotto Matte is perpetually throwing a party to celebrate its love of nikkei food, with dishes on the menu including a star dish scallop aji amarillo nigiri, which sees sweet scallop mixed with sour, fiery South American chilli."

"One of London's coolest restaurants, Chotto Matte fuses Japanese and Peruvian cuisine through its innovative Nikkei menu. Pop over to the Soho spot for the chance to tuck into beef tataki and passion fruit salsa, sea bass ceviche and aubergine miso sushi, washed down with some of their sumptuous signature cocktails."

"Restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King opened this ambitious pillar of the London restaurant industry, a homage to Europe’s “grand cafés,” 18 years ago. It’s a spectacular room which has long set the standard for all-day dining in this city. It also borders on the theatrical; this is an experience that’s about more than the food."

"In 2003, restaurateur royales Corbin and King were steering The Ivy, Le Caprice and J Sheekey when they opened this homage to Europe’s “grand cafés”. 15 years on, the former trio are in the care of Caring while The Wolseley stands steadfast. Its breakfast is its most formidable offering, with a peerless omelette Arnold Bennett."

"Restaurants Brasseries Piccadilly"

"Portuguese restaurant and wine bar, Bar Douro, is now available for takeaway or for delivery via Deliveroo. The new delivery menu includes Bar Douro favourites alongside some new dishes, available alongside a selection of Portuguese wines, craft beers, and DIY port and tonics. Divided into sections, the menu includes the likes of Pata Negra ham from the Alentejo; grilled octopus with sweet potato; and a set menu for two (£27 per-person)."

"A little slice of Portugal near Borough Market, Bar Douro's restaurant and wine bar will open their large outdoor terrace on 13 April. There are well-spaced port barrels to perch on for a drink and snack (grilled octopus is a must), or rustic tables for more of a sit-down dinner - both of which are covered and heated. Don't leave without a box of pasteis de natas."

"Not only is Portugal on the UK government's green list, it's also accessible via Bar Douro. Once there, you will be drinking port, eating 'croquteas de alheira' and generally having a lovely time."

"From private supper club to Brixton Village stall to six street food restaurants in fashionable hotspots across south and east London, Mama Lan has plenty to crow about. In fact, its story began even further back, with the snack stall in a Beijing street market run by founder Ning Ma’s mother and grandfather. The menu is refined, with colourful noodle dishes vying for flagship status with mouth-watering dumplings, and all laced with authentic flavours."

"This really is one of the most unusual things to do in Hertfordshire. A completely unique sight, this Roman Theatre is a theatre with a stage, rather than the usual Amphitheatre which we may be used to seeing from Roman times. It was built in 140AD and is the only one of its type in the whole of the UK."

"The Roman Theatre of Verulamium is an ancient excavated theatre built around 140 AD. It’s unique in that it’s not an amphitheatre, as was commonly built during Roman times. But rather, it resembles a design similar to a modern theatre, with a raised stage."

"Ranking among the top art museums in the world, London's National Gallery represents an almost complete survey of European painting from 1260 until 1920. The museum's greatest strengths are in its collections of Dutch Masters and Italian Schools of the 15th and 16th centuries. Among its highlights are a cartoon (preliminary sketch) of the Madonna and Child by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo's The Entombment, Botticelli's Venus and Mars, van Gogh's Sunflowers, and The Water-Lily Pond by Monet."

"It’s worth battling past the floating Yodas to get to the crown jewel of Trafalgar Square; the National Gallery. The formidable building sits resplendently behind the Fourth Plinth - always a talking point for art lovers - and contains some of the most famous paintings in the world. Here you’ll find works by Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Vermeer, Turner, Botticelli and Van Gogh - and you won’t be charged a penny to enjoy them."

"0 km from city center 11 out of 40 places to visit in London. The National Gallery is a art gallery situated in London which displays more than 2000 Western European paintings from the Middle Ages to the 20th Century. The works of renowned artists like Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt, Turner, Van Gogh, etc are displayed here."

"This international chain of galleries lands its London branch on Saville Row, spread across two exhibition spaces: the North Gallery and the South Gallery. Enjoy a range of engaging events with Hauser & Wirth; from artist talks, film screenings and workshops, to their dynamic exhibition programme that showcases modern art from emerging and established artists around the world."

"The Heath Robinson Museum is a biographical museum dedicated to the life and art of its namesake. The museum displays memorabilia, artwork, and objects from the life of Heath Robinson, as well as hosts exhibitions and events that support Robinson's life mission and vision. Admission to the museum is free."
