Ai Sushi is a Japanese restaurant at 830 High Road in North Finchley. The venue serves lunch and dinner in a casual dining room, with table service, reservations and a buffet format alongside takeaway and delivery options.
Sushi and sashimi are the central draw, covering individual pieces, rolls and mixed selections suited to sharing. Diners can combine familiar salmon and tuna preparations with a wider choice of seafood and vegetable fillings, making it easy to build a varied meal from smaller plates.
Hot Japanese dishes broaden the experience beyond raw fish, with cooked starters, rice and noodle choices offering contrasting textures and flavours. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options are available, although guests with allergies should confirm current preparation details directly with the restaurant.
The all you can eat format appeals to diners who want to sample widely, while ordering individual dishes works for a more focused visit. Alcohol is served, and the combination of seating, table service and flexible ordering makes Ai Sushi suitable for both casual meals and group occasions.
