Reviews praise Nippon Inn’s authentic flavours, friendly staff and value, but some guests report uneven consistency and occasional cleanliness concerns.
'Great food, great atmosphere. the sashimi couldn 't be fresher and the ramen is amazing. shame they only serve ramen at lunch time tho, but at least...
This family run restaurant is exceptional. One of the hidden gems to be found when eating out in Bournemouth. Exciting selections to choose from...
First visit this evening and the food was lovely will definitely be back
My first experience of a Japanese restaurant and I loved it! The food was amazing, well priced and great value for money. The Unagi or eel was extremely tasty, as was my Maki Sushi, we also had some Teriyaki dishes which were equally as tasty. Best of all for me, is that everything was gluten free and the staff were so friendly and accommodating regarding this, I feel safe to eat here and I can’t wait for my next visit.
Excellent food, service and atmosphere. We ordered the maki, nigiri and gyozas everything was so authentic and delicious. Will definitely return!

FAQ
More information
Despite its modest interior, a handful of dishes inspire near-fanatical praise from regulars: smoky eel preparations, sesame-glazed chicken wings and takoyaki are frequently singled out. Also, many locals time visits around menu windows — a few signature plates (notably ramen) are only reliably available at certain service times, so early planning can score the best eats.
