Historical version 18 of Tomoe, W1U 2PB (view current version)

Small Japanese restaurant one block north of Oxford Street. It's located on Marylebone Lane, at the Wigmore Street end.

Kake visited on a Wednesday lunchtime in December 2007. Very friendly and prompt service — I was greeted enthusiastically and there was a (complimentary) cup of tea on my table almost before I sat down.

I ordered the sashimi set lunch, which was £10 and included 13 pieces of sashimi (tuna, salmon, mackerel, prawn, and sea bass), a green salad, rice, pickles, and miso soup, all of good quality photo. I also had a couple of glasses of wine (£2.50 for 125ml). My final bill was not itemised, and was £2 higher than it should have been, but this was sorted out promptly (an anonymous commenter in April 2010 notes that this happened to them as well).

I was seated in the ground floor section, which has seating for about 30 people. There's a downstairs part too, which has a sushi counter where you can interact with the chefs, but I think it might only be open in the evening.

Handily, they stay open for lunch until 3pm; but they're not open on Monday lunchtimes and they're not open at all on Sundays. Note however that they may not always stay open for all of their advertised hours; Kake walked past at 2:15pm on a Tuesday in March 2010 and they were closed.
