Amura

Today we stopped in at the Amura Japanese restaurant in Heathrow for nice relaxing lunch. We ordered the Sesame Chicken along with two sushi rolls (Tuna and Salmon) and everything came out exceptionally good. The Sesame Chicken came out in the dinner portion and had that perfect balance of crisp texture and savory-sweet sauce. And the sushi rolls were exactly what I had in mind in terms of presentation and taste. Overall, Amura delivered a solid, satisfying meal and a smooth dining experience. Definitely a reliable choice when you’re in Heathrow.

We had the absolute pleasure of being served by Tony, our Hibachi chef at Amura Japanese Restaurant, and he was phenomenal. His skill, energy, and professionalism elevated the entire experience. Tony was engaging, entertaining, and incredibly attentive, creating such a fun and welcoming atmosphere while preparing an amazing meal. Every dish was cooked to perfection, and his personality made the night even more memorable. If you’re dining at Amura, do yourself a favor and ask for Tony - he turns a great meal into an unforgettable experience.

Appetizers were delicious, had the tempura green beans and egg rolls. However, the main course was Mid. Ramen tasted like package ramen and was unseasoned and not at all spicy. Chicken tasted like bland boiled chicken. Don't recommend the ramen at all. Sushi however was 8/10. Pretty good, had the krab rangoo rolls and dynamite roll.

The sushi here has major issues. First, the raw shrimp was not deveined. Second, the sushi rice was sickly sweet almost like candy — it ruined the entire order of food from the sushi bar. I ended up having to discard all the rice and didn’t eat the rolls I ordered. Our appetizer of Tempura Green Beans was wonderful and our server was fast and courteous. That said, I’ve never had sushi I didn’t like until now. I would not recommend eating here.

Good Food, Unfriendly Management. My recent dining experience at Amura left me with mixed feelings. While the food was undeniably delicious, the overall ambiance and management left much to be desired, particularly for families with young children. Upon arriving at the restaurant with two other families, we were promptly seated at a table equipped with high chairs despite having made a reservation. This seating arrangement was less than ideal for us, as we were accompanied by our 3 and 4-year-old children who naturally required more space to move around. Throughout the meal, our children were happily playing and enjoying themselves, which as parents, brought us joy. However, our positive experience was abruptly interrupted when the manager approached our table in a manner that can only
