    We Say

    Food Prepared by Chinese and
    Japanese chefs, the dim sum, sushi,
    noodles, robata grills and wok
    dishes are meant to be ordered in
    abundance and shared, so ideally
    you should go with a group of
    friends. The prawn toast, served in
    a portion of four, is recommended,
    as are the spicy lamb dumplings.
    Wine There’s a huge wine list with
    helpful descriptions and suggestions
    for matching with your food,
    which can sometimes be challenging
    when eating spicy dishes.
    Service Slightly overbearing when
    the restaurant is quiet, but overall
    polite and efficient.
    Ambience It’s dark with lacquered
    wood and soft lighting, giving it a
    bit of a nightclub feel. Tables are
    close together, which enhances
    the feeling of communal dining
    – or you can take a seat at the bar
    that runs the length of the open
    plan kitchen and watch the chefs
    at work.
    And… There are two sittings in
    the evening and a minimum spend
    required. (BC)

    Following a recent enjoyable experience at Haiku last week we returned last night with some Brazilian visitors. While the food was fine, we were let down by appalling service. We were seated at the counter which isn't as interactive as the tables but we knew and ...

    I'm surprised to read so many bad reviews of Haiku's service. Our waiter was really good. She was knowledgeable about the extensive menu, which helped with making choices from an overwhelming number of dishes. If I have one complaint about the service, it's that ...
