Ordered over £200 worth of deliveries in the space of 6 weeks on Deliveroo had rewards built up as in discounts on next orders then out of nowhere they decided I live to far and won’t deliver anymore but everywhere else does! So yeah pretty disappointed zero customer loyalty or appreciation.

Fantastic restaurant; best Japanese restaurant I've been to Service was super quick; barely any wait for the food The menu has so many great options I ordered California sushi rolls and chicken katsu sushi rolls, as well as miso soup. They have a range of sushi options, katsu curry, ramen and way more. The food was delicious and really filling.

Food is great and portion sizes are really big! Make sure you flip over the menus on the table- they are not placemats! We were confused after she handed us a sushi and specials menu and thought that was it as did several other tables all looking confused.

Huge shout out to Pickled Ginger for hosting my birthday ‘party’ after a last minute let down by another venue. Myself and my partner have always had great times here and in hindsight should have booked here from the outset. We were welcomed in with open arms into a very cheery and warm environment. The playlist was absolutely immaculate in the background but we were able to have an intimate catch up with all of the party in our nice secluded booth. Everyone’s orders were executed perfectly and all tastes were catered to. The food was just superb as always; piping hot, delicious and did not have to wait long at all. We are looking forward to making this a more frequent meet-up venue and are grateful for the kind hospitality we received last night.

Stopped for lunch with family. Service was lacklustre, waitress obviously preferring company of other staff than customers. Food was a mixed affair. Ramen was awful. Bland ,tastless and luke warm. Other dishes were better but more Chinese takeaway than Japanese. Tables sticky, toilets dingy. It's was edible and satisfied as a quick lunch stop. Given the competition in this market, I don't think any of my party would return.

Fine place to grab drinks, but don't expected an authentic dish. I ordered chicken teriyaki. But I got served which I believed it's a fried chicken with only teriyaki sauce& white sauce coming with rice and salad (which not anywhere near asian style). That's definitely not the authentic one, it's edible definitely but just disappointed since I personally expected it to do a nice japanese restaurant (Especially, when they got high review in google map)

Service was great and atmosphere was fine, but the food was shockingly bland. I've had much more flavourful ramen even just in Glasgow. The broth wasn't bad, it just didn't have much to it, not even in a subtle way. I also ordered the spicy salmon sushi and it was so lacking in spice that my friend who'd think fried rice is spicy could handle this sushi. The service was good enough that I would try them again in case it was just an off night, and nothing tasted bad, but the food left much yo be desired.

Delicious sushi. I recommend making reservations even though they were able to fit us in at the back counter as a drop-in, there was a free table the entire time we were there (why not just tell us how long we could stay?). The karaage was excellent but the pieces were double the size that I'm used to, so beware before ordering the larger size!

There is a recent comment from another person saying: “Staff were cold and harsh”. This comment is true. Some staff are nice but there is one person who seems to be always bothered since you enter the place and brings your food over your table in a bad mood as if you’re eating for free. Their food is very good but their quality is not consistent. Sometimes, their soup has no flavour or they serve 70% noddles/30% broth on a ramen. Overall, a restaurant could have ups and downs but customers must ALWAYS feel welcome and any outstanding food can be overshadowed by a bad customer service.

Tasty enough but think it's really out of order to charge £13 for the vegetable soba noodles when the only vegetable in them is onion. I think it was more or less the base noodles for the Chicken or Prawn option, which only cost about a pound more, with nothing added.

Went for dinner here, had good expectations but was very let down. They had no pumpkin so a lot of the options weren’t possible as a veggie - for some reason the only veg curry option is pumpkin, no tofu. So I opted for the ramen and was probably the worst I’ve ever had, it had zero flavour what so ever, I even added soy sauce to add some sort of flavour and it helped slightly but I shouldn’t have to add anything to the soup. I won’t be back since there are much better Japanese restaurants around. Maybe if you are a meat eater they put better thought and flavour into the meals but as a veggie I was very disappointed

+ It was a lovely evening in this asia restaurant. The service was outstanding. Mankos: - The steps down to the toilets were very slippery and, in my opinion, an accident hazard. The boss should learn from this. -The taste of the sushi was more like a 7 to 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. To be honest, I have eaten tastier sushi than here. - The menu should either be enlarged and illustrated offline in paper form or they should do everything online straight away. I'm a visual guy and I was literally blown away by what was on offer.

Decent good - bolgogi was nice and would eat again. Service very rushed throughout the meal, then we were given the bill after 45 minutes as the next booking for our table had arrived? We were told to finish our drinks outside. I understand losses need to be recuperated from covid closures etc, but service should be suffice. Unfortunately spoiled our meal and would rather go to competitors nearby ie Bibombap or Nippon.

Oh my goodness what an amazing find tucked away in Finnieston. Not a very big restaurant & as we were early I think we were lucky to get a table in all honesty. Very friendly staff who were welcoming & for whom nothing was a bother. My colleague ordered the Chicken Katsu and I had the Beef Bulgogi I love food but this was so huge I was nearly defeated. There is enough there for two to share if you ordered a second rice. The food was attractive & beyond tasty I would really recommend this if you are nearby or attending anything at the SEC it is a short (15 mins ish) from there and worth the walk

Yes, that’s what is priced on the menu but I couldn’t bring myself to add a tip on top of that Plus the waitress seemed to be expecting a tip as she told me about the “options” on the card reader. I declined All in all I left feeling bad, guilty that I hadn’t tipped even though the restaurant is lovely alongside the food I hope the staff forgive me

YO! Sushi - Silverburn Glasgowlocation-iconSilverburn Shopping CentreJapanese

Been going to this place every so often since it first opened way back when. Found out about the sushi school via a gift website. Had a little trouble calling (voicemail always full) and the emails took a few goes and some to-ing and fro-ing, but eventually got booked. The class is a proper laugh. You make LOADS of sushi, the menu was altered slightly as we had some vegans in the group, but those who also defo wanted to make meat sushi were still able to. Staff were informative and lovely,
