Lovely place, located close to the station (easy to reach). We've been there for dinner, via walk-in. The restaurant is now huge, def on the London standards. The food is delicious, and menu contains all the classic dishes. The staff were welcoming and the service I would say pretty quick. The restaurant is dog friendly, so you can bring your dog with you! I def recommend it

I love Tonkotsu, and my first visit to the Kentish Town branch was not a disappointment. Food was delicious, as were the beers. I had the Chilli Prawn Ramen and highly recommend. The desert was incredibly moreish. Our lovely waitress Sam couldn’t have been any more helpful, and I’m already looking for an excuse for another visit soon.
