The best restaurants serving Japanese food in Anderston / City Glasgow City Glasgow and Surrounding

Excellent, best Glasgow Sushi! Alex Siba 82 Japan

Expensive with fair food quality. Tofu nigiri only having half piece of sweet tofu. One of prawn Tempura tastes not fresh enough.

1st visit here, didn't know what to expect, I loved it, food was excellent, staff were friendly yet professional.

Unfortunately, this was just not the experience for us. We were greeted quickly upon entering, and the restaurant was busy!! Loud and fun, with great decor and seating. We were sat at a table for two, and were told that they had run out of menus, so they’d bring some shortly. We were never offered or given drinks while we waited, and it took about 15 minutes for someone to return with 1 menu. I chose the Chicken Ramen, while my partner chose the Hell Ramen. Orders were placed, tap water was provided, food delivered, and no one ever came back. We did finally flag down someone so we could settle up. I will say, the broth in both dishes was absolutely delicious. I was disappointed that mine only came with a very small amount of chicken (about four total pieces, which seemed like even smaller pieces clumped together by fried breading). Each of the four pieces easily fit in the spoon, and I quickly ate those because they were turning into a soggy mess. I’m not a hugely picky person, but fried food placed in broth to turn soggy and messy doesn’t necessarily appeal to me. My partner didn’t have any complaints about his meal, just that it was “fine ramen.” It was a nice experience, and the large parties seemed to have a lot of service and attention, so maybe we just caught them on an off-Tuesday!

You might blink and miss this restaurant, the frontage is quite small and it’s also known as Rice Time. The interior is more of a cafe style than posh restaurant, although they do have an alcohol licence. Drawback is that it can get noisy, just loud chat from other diners! There are private and karaoke rooms upstairs, Toilets are upstairs, didn’t see a disabled toilet but there might be one on the ground level. Staff are friendly, service is prompt. The menu is authentic Japanese, I’ve travelled in Japan a few times. There are numerous dishes with plenty of options including vegan and vegetarian. The other SE Asian dishes are also authentic, have travelled around there. Portions are a generous size and prices are very good value. We all enjoyed our food and would probably return. Liked the variety of teas, would have had the matcha ice cream but they were out of it.

We got the latte with oat milk and gingerbread syrup, and the matcha latte with oat milk. Both were good and just right on the sweetness scale for both. We don't like super sweet drinks. The decor is really cute. Definitely set up for social media selfies/ussies.

Good selection of sushi which they make to order. They also have a fridge with some takeaway sushi packs. Both the sushi and poke bowls are really nice. There are tables if you want to dine in. My only criticism is that the sushi rolls had slightly too much rice for the amount of filling. Really like this place and will be back.

Tables are covered by sticky stain. — Decor is great but food in small portions. A meal takes about £15.

Literally every dish I get from here is perfect both delivered and sit in - exceptional quality every time big portions every time and way better priced than other Japanese restaurants in Glasgow - very rarely do reviews but these guys have earned one!! 🤟🏼❤️

Went in on a Sunday around noon, not very busy, gorgeous staff with even better service. Had a salmon sushi burrito, had to wait 30 minutes due to a large order placed by another client. Despite this thanks to the lovely ambience and care from the staff the 30 minutes flashed by and we were compensated for our wait. The food was fresh and delicious and warm straight from the kitchen. Would absolutely recommend this place for a lunch with friends.

Tried this eatery for a lunchtime treat. There is a separate takeaway menu . The staff are friendly and the service is quick. The food is tasty and warmed me on a cold afternoon. Very satisfying. Will be back.

I feel it tastes better than Ajisen Ramen, and I don’t recommend the takoyaki.

Food is delicious and fresh! Excellent sushi roll in glasgow

Nice setting within Merchant square. Despite being quiet on arrival had to look for staff to get seated. Staff member not overly friendly. Food was excellent, warm, beautifully presented and very tasty. Tap order and pay didn’t work at table and staff said that is the case. Nice interior and simple menu. Quality food and nice experience hampered only by lack of enthusiasm, cheer and engagement by staff. Shame. Would eat again if different member of staff.

Was geared up to go here as friends' said reviews were good. Dreadful meal!! Worst in a long while. "Veggie Katsu - crispy mixed vegetables"...Not so, a small bed of stodgy white rice, with 4 flat potato croquettes on it. Inside the 'croquettes' was mashed potato, some sweetcorn bits, and miniscule carrot fragments!! Next to the rice was curry sauce, the kind you get with chips. No crispy vegetables or vegetables in sight. Will definitely NOT recommend at all. Find somewhere else!! A complete rip off.
