From ocean galore to your front door? These mighty restaurants are still delivering sushi, despite day to day hospitality processes being put on hold. For those tempted by a Friday maki fix or Saturday sashimi lunch, get everything from sustainable salmon to dragon rolls from locals indies and premium spots with our guide to London's best sushi delivery.
Roka Charlotte Street
What normally is one of our favourite date spots is now helping us have sushi delivery date nights at home. Start with piripiri maguro maki rolls and spicy tuna tataki with a cooling dose of cucumber. We’d also recommend the soft shell crab and kimchi maki. Something to finish? Roka are keeping us sweet with a Japanese cheesecake with robata pears, topped off with a jasmine tea ice cream.
Sushinoen
Being hailed as one of London’s most authentic Japanese restaurants, this Whitechapel beauty is serving up its Omakase menu direct to your home. Look out for a long list of nigiri and sashimi as well as both veggie and non-veggie maki options before topping off your meal with a portion of deep-fried vanilla ice cream tempura (don’t ask how it’s made, just order it).
SushiSamba Covent Garden
This is NOT fake news, we promise. For the first time in herstory, SushiSamba are delivering sushi from Central London to your home, along with their signature cocktails (bottled of course). Whet your appetite with a portion of tuna tiradito and then indulge in their classic California maki - made with the finest snow crab. Feeling decadent? Take the plunge and have an entire platter, available in both vegetable and fish varieties.
Taro Kennington
A chain of informal sushi bars known for their raw fish, gyoza and hearty Japanese mains, Taro are providing sushi south of the river. Get your lunch sorted with their duck bento boxes, filled with edamame, bean sprouts and salmon sashimi. Wanting a dinner feast? Order up as much nigiri as you can to make your own at-home buffet: sea bream, salmon squid, eel and salmon are just a few of their mouthwatering raw fish options.
Uchi Hackney
Bringing sushi to East London, Uchi are offering rolls for days. Sample their miso aubergine or tempura broccoli for some vegetable-based goodness. If you're craving seafood, their tuna crunch is a best seller that we’d recommend sinking your teeth into. Want something even fishier? They’ve got all the sashimi you could need, from sweet prawn to yellowtail.
Sushi Atelier
There are seasonal fish options galore at this Fitzrovia paradise. With great vegetarian options like shiitake and kinpira gobo, the West London sushi fave is now available to everyone at home. Choose to start with their salmon tartare, followed by a fresh seaweed and cucumber salad, topped off with a hearty truffle butterfish oshizushi for the ultimate at-home sushi dinner.
Aqua Kyoto
Now available to order online, Aqua Kyoto is the Regent Street Japanese restaurant delivering sushi in Central London. Head chef Ken Miyake has curated a high quality menu of fresh omakase sushi and sashimi alongside signature dishes of tempura shrimp and fillet of black cod. The stuff of Friday night takeaway dreams...
Feng Sushi
Not only are beloved sushi slingers Feng Sushi delivering across London, but they've even created their very own DIY kit. Switch things up from the standard takeaway and have a crack at making your very own rolls at home. The box includes four rolls, such as avo and cucmber maki, salmon and avo ISO, spicy tuna ISO and extras to help you get a little more creative.
Nobu Old Park Lane
In the mood to splash out a little on a sushi takeaway? Tuck into some of Nobu's most popular dishes from the comfort of home with their collection service in Mayfair. From tuna tataki with tosazu to yellowtail jalapeno, creamy spicy snow crab to anticucho Peruvian-style steak, the restaurant's signature Japanese-South American fusion makes for one fancy sushi dinner.
Japan Centre
When it comes to the best sushi in London, can you do much better than homemade? Japan Centre are helping you cheat your way to perfect seafood bites with their fun delivery DIY kits. The boxes included all the ingredients you'll need to create 16 pieces of delicious norimaki or a poke bowl. And if you're looking to make an evening of it? You can also add a sake tasting flight.
