Small, diner-style Japanese restaurant on the edge of Chinatown (corner of Newport Place and Little Newport Street); Leicester Square Station is just around the corner. The decor is sparse and the service is basic but not brusque. Tips are not accepted, by policy, which makes a meal cheaper than it might appear at first.

We tried the bento boxes; seaweed salad, three generous pieces of salmon sashimi, rice, cold fried aubergine, and protein of choice (two of us tried the chicken kara fry at £13.90, one of us the salmon teriyaki, at £14.50). I can't remember what the fourth member of our party had - something in a bowl - but he seemed to like it. A vegetarian bento box, advertised as vegan, is also available at £9.90, but we haven't tried it yet. The also offer sushi, including a 13-piece nigiri/rolls set at £9.90. The house wine (£6.90) was perfectly acceptable, and the green tea (free!) was very good.

This place has been around for quite some time, and seems very popular for a quick meal at a fair price.

The full menu is available on their website, and looks up to date as of May 2007 (warning: the front page of their website is a bit of a resource hog; I thought it was about to crash my browser).
