One stop Japanese shop on Piccadilly.
Ground floor sushi bar and restaurant (Toku - see also Helen Yuet Ling Pang's review and Nyam Nyam review).
Takeaway sushi counter (run by Restaurant Yoshino) in the basement. Possibly the best takeaway sushi in London, and cheap (£7.80 for a ~12 item assortment). The whole place is always crowded at lunchtimes, but service (downstairs at least) is still quick.
There's also a bookshop, a travel centre and some other stuff.
Comment added by Sushi Lover: The basement sushi take-away shop has moved out of Japan Centre, and is now in a Yoshino Restaurant, between the Meridian hotel and Abbey bank on Piccadilly Place (opposite Waterstones book shop).
The Ground Floor sushi shop in Japan Center is not the same quality as Yoshino's take-away sushi, and certainly is not made by the same sushi chefs!
