Tobiko is an independent Japanese restaurant at 8 Garrick Street in Covent Garden, close to Leicester Square and the West End theatres. The compact venue concentrates on weekday lunch service, with collection orders available in advance for diners who want to avoid a queue. Its menu combines freshly prepared sushi with warm rice, curry and noodle dishes.
Hand rolls and maki pair sushi rice and seaweed with salmon, tuna, avocado, crab stick, mackerel or chicken. Nigiri, sashimi and mixed platters allow the freshness of the fish to remain the focus, while spicy mayonnaise, spring onion and crisp salmon skin introduce stronger textures and flavours. Larger assortments are useful for office lunches and group orders.
Donburi choices include chicken, salmon, mackerel, sea bass, tuna and grilled freshwater eel served over Japanese rice with vegetables. Chirashi arranges a chef selected variety of fish and tobiko across a bowl of rice. Chicken katsu curry and prawn tempura curry offer warming alternatives to raw fish, joined by udon noodle soup and traditional miso soup.
Edamame, seaweed salad and small snacks can complete a lighter meal, with bottled drinks and green tea among the refreshments. An online allergy filter helps customers narrow the menu around particular ingredients before ordering. Tobiko's focused hours, efficient collection system and broad mix of cold and hot food make it especially practical for a Covent Garden lunch.
