The service here was good, staff were super helpful and lovely. The food was great, the steak tartar was amazing. The sauce for the pork was a bit sweet for my liking but the pork itself was cooked perfectly.

Sticks n Sushi in Canary Wharf is a delightful dining spot that impresses with its excellent fare and attentive service. The menu offers a variety of delectable sushi and skewers, each dish presenting vibrant flavors that are sure to please even the most discerning palate. The staff is friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall dining experience with their attentive service. However, while the quality of both the food and service justifies it to some extent, the prices are on the steeper side. Overall, it's a fantastic place for a special meal, though you might want to be mindful of the budget.
