Always busy, this Chinese restaurant chain serves a variety of authentic dishes and offers a takeaway facility. Part of the Royal China group, Osatsuma serves refreshing Japanese food with a similar concept to many other new 'sushi' bars where everyone sits on benches. They also offer a take away and delivery service.

All In London Review
Another Japanese restaurant with communal tables…yawn
A lot of this is down to Alan Yau, who has steadily been taking over the capital since launching noodle bar Wagamama, followed by the Chinese Hakkasan and the Thai chain Busaba Eat Thai. The streets of W1 are now replete with Asian restaurants, making it nigh on impossible for any of them to stand out.
Satsuma’s menu is varied and has all the standard bento boxes, sushi sets, curries and noodle dishes. None of it can be faulted; my chicken Katsu curry was very tasty, with breaded pieces of tender chicken sat atop a mound of rice in a spicy sauce. However, the food is quite forgettable amongst the many other Japanese restaurants around. Service was friendly and attentive, and Satsuma is clearly a popular draw as it was bustling with activity late on a Sunday evening.
Satsuma’s menu is decent, but nothing spectacular. The same goes for the prices. I am in fact surprised at why so many people would choose to dine in this average, overly-lit, character-less restaurant when there are far more charming eateries around. Must be the fashion.
