SquareMeal Review of Dinings SW3

Silver Award

While the Marylebone branch of Dinings still feels like a cramped labour of love from ex-Nobu chef Tomonari Chiba, here in SW3 a glossy street-level sushi bar gives way to a sunken dining room that’s as well-groomed as the resident Chelsea clientele. It’s a striking setting for some highly accomplished modern Japanese cooking that artfully blends tradition with innovation, and oriental technique with European ingredients. Begin with sharing plates such as mini taco shells filled with lobster and jalapeño or (even better) luscious fatty tuna ahead of melt-in-the-mouth Wagyu tataki, silky double-cooked aubergine with sweet miso, and sweet-fleshed langoustine grilled on the Josper. Carbs come in the form of sushi rice wrapped around the likes of shrimp tempura, although purists may prefer the clean flavours of a simple piece of smoked eel or yellowtail nigiri. To drink, the seasonal saké list includes Dinings’ own label, and there are plans for outside seating in the courtyard behind the cobbled mews. Our only gripe is that service isn’t nearly as polished as the setting and prices demand.

Incredible Find

Absolutely stunning food with the most fantastic service by Sylvia. Her recommendations were spot on and we had a gorgeous lunch outside on the terrace. Most memorable and I will definitely be returning as soon as possible.

Every dish a piece of art

10 March 2020

Had an incredible meal at Dinings SW3. Every dish was a served like a little piece of art and tasted deliciously. There is so much more on the menu that I want to try, so will definitely come back again. Staff is super charming and attentive. You get all the quality of a fine dining experience without all that stuffiness. Great night out!

Best sushi in London expensive but worth it.

Good quality Japanese food but slightly overpriced

04 February 2018

Dinings is a place where you go to impress someone. The decor and ambiance are perfect for a Saturday night out, the food is up to standard, but it’s not exactly memorable or mind blowing. It is slightly overpriced and service was slow when we went.
