Restaurant Review - Cafe Japan

This has simple café surroundings with bench seating as well as a bar where food is served to customers seated on bar stools. It was packed out tonight. Service was stretched but friendly. This is pretty much entirely a sushi and sashimi place, with no meat dishes that I could see, and almost everything being raw fish of various kinds others than specials and just a few hot dishes. Miso soup was pleasant. I had sashimi tuna, with eight prettily presented pieces of good tuna, with pickled ginger and wasabi (3/10). Grilled eel was served on a bed of rice that had absorbed the cooking juices and was excellent (4/10). Blackened cod was capable with good flavour (3/10). This place is very fair value. I had Kirin beer, but other Japanese beers and some wines are also available.
