It's been over a decade since Muscovite Janina Wolkow brought her successful sushi concept Sumosan to Mayfair and it remains just as successful as ever, not only because Londoners have developed a need for all things Nipponese, but particularly because it offers a high-quality and consistent product in one of London's most luscious arenas.

Situated just next to Brown's Hotel, Sumosan channels the genteel aura of its area with a calm, relaxed design scheme employing the neutrality of cream and caramel colours in order to bring its starry clientele into the foreground, many of whom have already made it their local (Jade Jagger, Kate Moss, Laurence Fishburne and Will Smith have already attested to Sumosan's superior sushi). The light and airy feel of the dining room is a nice counterpoint to many of the capital's other destination eateries.

Another thing that happily comes into the foreground is the food, which is phenomenal. Provenance is key and the servings are far from parsimonious. Where other restaurants tend to be a bit cute when it comes to an ingredient like lobster, Sumosan is bountiful. If you're interested in sampling a range of Japanese delicacies, be careful that you don't fill up too much on delicious dishes like their lobster salad or dover sole, as there are a variety of plates that simply must be experienced. These include the T&T Roll (tuna roll with white truffle sauce), tempura rock shrimp, teppanyaki and some exceptional desserts, for instance the green tea cheesecake and white chocolate fondant.

The staff at Sumosan are knowledgeable and attentive. If you feel that wine can be a bit overwhelming with Japanese cuisine, they are happy to provide pointers on what selections from their excellent cocktail list complements each dish. Additionally, if you're in the mood to decompress in a discreet but cool bar, investigate their exclusive lounge downstairs.

Testimonials

I’ve been with Innerplace pretty much since they started which is over 21 years now. Whilst I have access to other concierges through work and credit cards, Innerplace will always be my go to due to their incredible service, friendliness, expertise, knowledge and most of all their ability to get me a last minute booking at the most in demand restaurants in town, even when fully booked!

In the last few years they’ve really upped their game in terms of members parties and access to events which as well as being fun are also great networking opportunities. Tim has put together an incredible team and its always a pleasure to speak with them over email, phone and also when I meet them in person.

Most recently I asked them to find me a venue for our work summer drinks as I wasn’t able to find anything within budget or with the required flexibility on numbers, food and drink. They found me an incredible venue which ticked all the boxes and they did all the leg work keeping me up to date and well informed.

Keep up the great work!

Testimonials

The service I have received from Innerplace has been superb every time, not just dinner or club reservations but also gigs, events and other lifestyle requests... In conjunction with the regular parties that you host I believe the membership is great value for money. Even helping me with a recent weekend trip to New York, which was exceptional. Everything ran like clockwork making my life a lot easier than it otherwise it would have been. A truly great service.
