We accidentally drove past the restaurant as it looked like a small Café, we decided to try it anyway and without question had some of the best Sushi we'd ever had, and we have been to some really famous Sushi restaurants. Please don't be put off by the location and style of building just sit down and enjoy truly fantastic food and a warm welcome from the owner Fon.

What a stroke of luck to have it at the end of my street.Onami offers a good, extensive menu which is all cooked to perfection and all the favourites are there.

It is much better then takeaway as it is cooked to order.As the chef/ owner his name is Fung) used to work at some of the top Japanese restaurants in London, he will also serve some of their signature dishes, like Blackcod in miso £18 a portion instead of £45 in London) and Yellowtail with Jalapeño. For the adventurous eater, try the thin cut Octopus with dried Soy sauce crystals.We have never had a bad meal here.
