My new favourite Japanese spot in London Loved the South Kensington branch. I love the Japanese style seating. The signature dozo Rolls are must try. Also their sake promotion was very good to experience.

Loved the dinning area, it’s like a trip to Japan the food was really good, the sashimi and sushi were exceptional, we weren’t a huge fan of the ramen but everything else was amazing! Definitely book beforehand.

I’ve been to Dozo so many times and it’s like my student canteen!The avocado sushi rolls are their signature food! Imagine that, sushi rolls wrapped by cheese!! So delicious!! I am so lucky to catch their sea urchin season!! Finally I can have my fresh sea urchins in London city!! Their food quality always maintain the best standard and their service is incredibly warm and welcoming! Especially for students, they always come up some student meal box and student price to give students save money

Absolutely loved this Japanese restaurant! The vibe is super cozy and authentic—felt like a mini Tokyo escape. The sashimi was insanely fresh, and the sushi was just the right balance of rice and filling. Big shoutout to the salmon and unagi—chef’s kiss! The staff were super friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. 10/10 would come back again (and again). If you’re into good vibes and even better sushi—this is the spot. Mwah mwah!

Dozo never disappoints. I’ve been coming here for years, and the quality has remained consistently excellent. The fish ramen is my go-to — rich, flavorful broth with perfectly cooked noodles and fresh toppings. It’s comforting, satisfying, and always hits the spot. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a reliable favorite for authentic Japanese cuisine in South Kensington.
