itsu - London

I ordered a vegan soup and found it to be decent, but not particularly exceptional.

Itsu is a fast casual restaurant with a slightly upscale vibe, but still affordable prices. The menu is Asian-inspired, with a focus on Japanese cuisine. The vegan options at itsu have grown significantly over the years, with delicious offerings clearly marked on the menu and packaging. One standout dish is the detox miso noodle soup, which is low in calories but can sometimes be too salty depending on who prepares it. Some new favorites include the veggie dragon roll with vegan mayo, veggie meatball coconut soup, and veggie gyoza noodle bowl. There are other vegan and vegetarian options available that are worth trying, all clearly labeled for convenience. Most staff members are knowledgeable about vegan options, a diet that is increasingly popular in Britain. Overall, itsu is a solid choice for high-quality, healthy food, and I would rate it a 4 out of 5.

I would love to return and sample the vegetarian hot rice bowl!

Yes! I love this chain and this location in particular. They have MASTERED the art of the business lunch.

This was my first time trying out this chainIt's a nice clean place with a modern atmosphere feel and take on Asian food.
