Very fresh sushi

Directly opposite Ealing Common Tube station.
This place only serves sushi & sashimi in terms of food... so no hot food - no katsu curry, no croquette, no gyoza, no udon, no tempura... yeah...
Very authentic, fresh ingredients, best try their toro and tamago sushi, very very nice.
We were sitting at the bar and you could see the chefs carefully preparing the fish... it looks like a piece of art... really...
Note: Please reserve a table before you go and they only take cash!
Best sushi in London

Beyond expectations
I've been to many sushi joints over the years, including some in Japan, and this places rates right near the top.
From the outside Sushi-Hiro doesn't look much and in fact we wouldn't have gone in if we hadn't been invited for lunch by some Japanse friends.
The inside is small, so it's best to book. There are only four tables and then there is the sushi bar, with the chefs working behind. It's nice to site at the bar and watch them making the sushi. You can ask what is what, if you are able to cope with a bit of language barrier, as all the staff are Japanese, and some of the chefs are waek in English. A lot of the clients are Japanese too.
I've probably been 15 times, and my wife has been more than that. Definitely recommended.
