The best restaurants serving Japanese food in Scotland

Excellant night out, great for groups or a special occassion

Unfortunately, it was a huge letdown. First, the service was painfully slow. We waited nearly 30 minutes just to place our order, and even longer for the food to arrive. When it finally did, the sushi was subpar at best. The fish did not taste fresh, and the rice was either overcooked or hard in several pieces. The menu prices do not match the quality of the food. For what we paid, I expected something much better. To make matters worse, the presentation was sloppy, and some of the rolls fell apart as soon as they were picked up. Overall, the experience was underwhelming. I won’t be returning and can’t recommend it to anyone looking for quality sushi.

Beautiful place, so clean and fresh. Good food and plenty of it. - I asked for extra extra extra extra hot noodles and thats what I got! My partner had the katsu and it was amazing! The Haggis spring rolls are simply stunning!! Amazing customer service! We can't wait to come back!.

Food was bland and the delivery took ages.

Loved it! Great food and atmosphere! Prices are very reasonable! Service was very ! Hot sake was interesting to try! Also, they have very good Japanese nonalcoholic beer! Takoyaki and rolls were super tasty. Big shout out to Aušra, for Great service.

Lovely food Beautiful place Great service

Restaurant de ramen présent en plusieurs endroits en ville d'Edimbourg. J'ai commandé du kimchi, ainsi qu'un ramen au poulet bien épicé. Un peu dommage que la composition des ramen ne soit pas détaillée sur la carte, mais rien de bien grave. Après dégustation : Kimchi top... Poulet bien tendre... La portion de poulet aurait pu être un poil plus grande... Nouilles savoureuses... Portion de nouilles généreuse... Bouillon trop épicé selon mes préférences, pas d'équilibre de saveurs en bouche... Un ramen de qualité, juste dommage pour le bouillon, mais il s'agit là de mon choix que j'assume complètement vu que la carte signalait clairement l'assaisonnement très fort. Je repasserai volontiers et commanderai leur nouveau ramen avec le bouillon curry-coco qui avait l'air bien gourmand. Des prix quand même un peu plus doux qu'en Suisse, du coup on ne regrette pas les 10% demandés pour le service. Cela dit en passant, un service efficace en période d'affluence, idem pour le plaçage à la table avec une file d'attente de 15 personnes j'a attendu 5 environ , merci.

I love it here, ive never been disappointed with the food here. Staff friendly and amazing. Would recommend highly

This restaurant was excellent. The decor is lovely, the staff helpful and friendly, and the food ..... fabulous!!!! My daughter and I are always looking to try a different sushi restaurant. This was definitely one of our favourites. The edamame was the best we have had. I think they BBQ'd them? Piping hot and soooo delicious. We loved all the dishes we selected, but the star for us was the Ebi Popcorn. It was so delicious that we had to order another bowl. The food was fresh, presented well, and as I say, delicious. We will definitely return.

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!

This restaurant moved across the street and down a little bit. They now serve ramen, which my wife said was outstanding, in addition to other fare. My server was able to immediately understand my need for gluten free sushi and told me exactly what I could and could not have. The pickled ginger on my sushi plate was some of the best I’ve had in a long time, not the dyed red garbage from a jar. I would absolutely go back in the future.

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.

This is our favourite Aberdeen sushi place! Always good food, excellent sushi and ramen. The staff is always helpful and polite.

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.
