Flesh & Buns Covent Garden

My wife recommended Flesh & Buns after she had a great team lunch at their Soho location. So within 10 days we decided to try their express lunch at the Covent Garden and we weren't disappointed. Their wings and crispy duck were great. Though the chicken teriyaki poke don was alright. Now despite having an overall good score in the taste department I will dock a point as there isn't anything unique here. I think I would find similar dishes in another location with similar vibe and taste for a better price. Nonetheless if you are looking for a place for team lunches or pre theatre meal then their Express menu is a very good option to definitely try. Their service is pretty friendly too and I want to give a shout out to Roshana who took care of us throughout the lunch.

I recently visited Flesh & Buns for the first time and I had an amazing experience. The staff were extremely welcoming and provided outstanding service in a lovely atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend trying the Korean fried wings and the fried squid/calamari starters. For our mains, we ordered the salmon teriyaki and the Japanese fried chicken which came with steamed bao buns that were light and fluffy. I will definitely be returning for another visit!

Suuuch delicious food and nice relaxed atmosphere. Always busy. £10 off pp deal in Aug if you mention their email. The salmon teriyaki bao is the standout, big enough to get 4 bao buns out of (you can order more buns v cheap). The miso aubergine poke bowl was v good value and big enough for a lunch or lightish dinner. Fried squid and broccoli and prawn tempura maki to start. All delicious. Washed down with a stone & wood (fav beer discovered in Aus so happy to find it in London!). However it’s not cheap. For all the mentioned food it was £87 including one beer each, we had £20 off but still a relatively pricey meal though. Service was good but not outstanding!

Very delicious restaurant, everything on the menu was incredible. Definitely a bit pricey, with relatively small portions depending on what you get. The lamb shank and mixed sushi board was incredible and I'd definitely recommend the wings too. Great service and very quick! I'd recommend the buns too!

We had the set menu, it was £45 per person and they give you so much food. Crisps with guacamole and salsa, ceviche salad, baby broccoli, crispy squid, salmon sushi, chicken wings then for mains boa buns with teriyaki salmon, peking duck, miso aubergine, mushrooms and pork belly. Make your own strawberry s’mores for dessert. Everything was delicious and we had some leftovers to take home at the end.

Took my friend for a birthday dinner here and my friend just kept saying how delicious the food is. We went on a Monday eve, so the food came out really quickly and the service was impeccable. What we had: 🍢Starters: Chips & dips - rice crackers with avocado shisho and tomato salsa. This was my least favourite dish and the one that I wouldn't order again. It wasn't bad but the rice crackers were a tad bland. 3/5 Beef fat potato chips - those were bloody amazing! Try them! 5/5 Fried squid with yuzu kosho mayo and Japanese spices - they were spicy and moreish! Would order again for sure 5/5 🍜Mains: Flesh & bun - crispy piglet belly! I absolutely love pork belly! It was melting in the mouth with a crispy skin what more can you want. 5/5 Miso glazed aubergine poke don - classic Japanese way of cooking aubergine. Delicious! 5/5 🍩Dessert: Kinako donuts - solid choice but next time I'll try the fondant (takes 15min to cook apparently!) The only thing that I found jarring with the whole ambiance of the place was the hentai in the toilets. I did appreciate it, it just looked a bit out of place and might raise some eyebrows 😂

We had a great team dinner here. Fab food and good service (could have been a bit more prompt). The starters were great and fit for individual portions. We ended up ordering almost all the starters. The portion size on the mains was very generous and we ended up with a lot of food. Everything was very good.
