Came early evening for a meal, food and service was outstanding ! We got a selection of nigiri and rolls, that were all incredibly well priced for sushi. The salmon nigiri especially was perfect, easily the best we have ever had. The staff were very attentive and even provided complimentary appetisers and desserts! Definitely recommend for both takeaway and eat in, although do note the inside is very small so not many tables available for eat in, but it does make the atmosphere even nicer as you can see the chefs preparing your food in front of you. Will definitely be returning, can’t recommend enough !

Having been introduced to The Rising Sun by a friend, I am constantly blown away by the quality of the food. I always enjoy everything, but I have to say the sashimi is the freshest and best tasting I've ever had. The staff are also brilliant. By far my favourite Japonese restaurant in London.

Best sushi in London. We have been regular customers and we never appreciated how good it is until we went to Japan. It is better sushi than most of the sushi restaurants we have been to in Japan. Highly recommend. Also @Head chef, please don’t retire. We love your sushi.
