Dai Chi

Shame they have now closed down! Beautiful place with very creative and delicious Japanese food. Top class fast and friendly service. We had the 8 course tasting menu and were very pleasantly surprised by all courses. The wine tasting was also very interesting. Their partner restaurant Angelina will stay open so I would recommend giving them a try! Will definitely come back when they reopen.

Absolutely interesting fusion Japanese omakase experienced in Central London. The price is quite reasonable and you can have 8 dishes per person! I have to say, the dessert is the best among all dishes, with the fresh taste of frozen strawberry blended. Staff are very friendly and they will explain to you for all ingredients of each dish.

Dai Chi is the “sister restaurant” of Angelina. I went to Angelina and it blew my mind, so I had great expectations for this one as well. I can proudly say that it didn’t disappointed me 🤩 The whole thing is an experience. The food is great and the service is super professional. It’s quite rare to find this quality in London. The best part is that they constantly change the menu, so you can come back several times and always enjoy something different 🥰 Simply brilliant 🤩

Dai Chi is a small restaurant with a really nice interior and relaxed atmosphere. They offer 6 and 8 course tasting menus at a very reasonable cost. We went for the 6 course tasting menu along with 1 cocktail and 1 glass of wine each. This came to £60 each incl. service. My one issue with the restaurant is the menu. Some of the dishes just didn’t work for me or fit with the menu. The taleggio was nice on its own but I don’t think it fitted with the menus. The offal was extremely chewy (and I normally like offal) but this was the worst dish on the menu. If those things were changed it would have been 5 stars.

Interesting combinations, very reasonable price for what you get ( tasting menu with 14 different bites/small dishes) . Service is spot on and the ambience is super cool for a date or a night out. Cocktails are very interesting: the whiskey, Campari, vermouth and soy butter was to die for. Recommended

Such great food at a reasonable price. It was perfect for a date and great to hold a conversation with the music and noise not getting too loud. The amount and quality of food you get is unmatchable to other restaurants in the central area. Service was impeccable. I read some earlier reviews saying that it could use some improvement and I’m glad they took the reviews to heart. Waitstaff literally predicted our needs at every corner and made the night so much more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back.

Such incredible produce with such precision. Didn't know fully what to expect but we took a chance with the tasting menu and it knocked our socks off. Very humbling presentation and accurate flavour targets that were hit. Like walking through an edible echo chamber. Highlights - pork kabayagi, venison with shitake ponzu and Sicilian prawn, pea & wasabi soup. Plenty other flavour chambers but they stood out. A sake menu invites a sense of adventure to try more and accurate service to top it all off 👌 A taste adventure with the guidance of words, be bold.
