About
Part of the Atariya Foods group, founded by Japanese company JFLA Holdings and operating in London since the early 1990s, the West Acton branch combines a premium Japanese supermarket with a sit-in sushi counter. The group is London's top wholesale supplier of sashimi-grade fish to Michelin-starred kitchens, and its retail counter at Station Parade puts that same quality fish directly in diners' hands. No-frills in decor but faultless in product, this is a beloved neighbourhood institution where Japanese expats and North Acton regulars queue for otoro, uni and seasonal specials cut to order.
