You can pass by this place in Edinburgh and literally never know it exists…read more If anything gets full marks, it's the decor. First off, you walk down these stairs from the street to get to it. When you enter the restaurant, the decor definitely is the first thing you notice. Very traditional Japanese decor all around. I've been to many Japanese restaurants in the states and majority are not nearly decked out as this place. Food and service is solid too. The only reason I couldn't rate it any higher is because the food tastes like "a normal" spot I've had before. The Katsu was cooked perfectly but the curry just seemed only a little above average. The Tonkotsu Ramen also didn't have as much flavor as I was hoping. I'm not trying to say any of the food is bad. Not even saying it's mid. It's just the flavors really didn't do anything to blow the socks off my taste buds and that's my fault. I'm spoiled because I live in the Bay Area of California where I have an abundance of Japanese restaurants to choose from. I also went to Japan for the first time this year so again, I've been fortunate enough to be able try a lot of different places. Don't get it twisted though. I highly recommend Kenji Sushi. If I lived in Edinburgh I'd probably be coming here a lot. Especially if I had never had Japanese food before. I think it's amazing that the city has diverse food options like this that are actually good. It helps that it looks fancy inside too. Kenji would be a great place to take someone on a date.

Are we talking Kobe Bryant, no, Kobee steakhouse in Dundee, Scotland…read more They could both be used in the same sentence, as both are outstanding at what they do. My son and I realized that Angus beef was a product of Angus Scotland, so we felt the need to indulge in a great Angus Steak. After asking around, most suggested we try the Kobee steakhouse...we're glad we did. The restaurant has 30+ tables and has hreat street views across the entire dining area. The menu, has several steak options, that can be combined with other proteins. We opted for the ribeye and chicken, and filet and prawns. My Sapporo beer arrived, which was cold and always tasty...then our food arrived. The steaks were grilled perfectly, with very little fat on the ribeye, and the filet had great flavor. Adding the fried rice and hint of teriyaki, this meal was the capper, to a great week of golfing and exploring in Scotland. If you're looking for a nice dinner...go for a slam dunk, and give Kobe a try...

We stumbled upon this location after looking for a place near our AirBnB for some Sushi. We tried to reserve a table online via their website but it didn't work. So we decided to instead walk a mile to their restaurant to see if we could get a table - or even sit outside if we had to - knowing there would probably be a bit of a wait. When we got there I entered the restaurant with my son who is 3 in a stroller and immediately was greeted by a Redheaded woman who smiled at me like I had 3 heads. I then asked kindly for their availability and explained my situation and the woman scoffed at me - as if I was stupid to even ask the question - to which she then turned her iPad around and showed a list of Reservations. I actually managed to point to my reservation that via the website had not seemed to schedule correctly - to which she aggressively said "well there's nothing we can do'. Right as I turned to leave the restaurant the rest of my party trickles in and asks if we can eat outside - One of the kind waitresses said "sure" to which she set us up outside. We ordered 3 bottles of Sake and they were £24 for 300ml bottles. We had hoped that they might be worth the price but unfortunately they weren't much better than what you can get from a CoOp with a liquor license. The Shrimp Ramen was fantastic and the sushi tasted great but was really overpriced for the quantity which they give you. Overall I totally get the lack of vacancy for a popular spot - but being scoffed at as you gently inquire about availability was really off putting. Even eating there despite it was difficult - and the alcohol/sushi being overpriced. Would not recommend. The sushi quality and the waitresses efforts are the only reason it's not 1/5.

Okay coming from an American perspective where most airport food is absolutely dreadful, I was…read morereally impressed that they have a conveyor belt sushi bar inside the Edinburgh Airport! We seriously need to get our sh*t together in the USA. This was great to have before my flight to Ireland. While Yo! Sushi may not be the highest quality sushi in the history of sushi bars, its pretty good quality for an airport. I love the concept of being able to pick out what you want from the coloring book-esqe menu with pictures and wait for the plate to come around. Also they offer made to order handrolls and other dishes from the kitchen. Service here was excellent! My server was very attentive and explained how the ordering and menu worked to me since I was a first timer. The bar seeting was a cool concept, with each person having a personal call button like on an airplane! I guess I am easily amused? This place gives off fun and trendy vibes!

I thought it was very good and loved the concept of the freshly made items passing me by on a conveyor and all I had to do was pull it off and eat it. The staff are really nice there and they keep the tables clean and tidy. The best thing about Yo Sushi in the airport is that when you need to eat and look around at what is available there is nothing but overpriced, not so fresh and cafeteria style food options. Yo Sushi brings freshness and comfort to the equation and their prices are very reasonable. I wish Yo Sushi was in every American Airport too. Good food, good price, and a relaxing meal are just what the weary traveler needs, and Yo Sushi provides that. By the way, we saw them in town too, but didn't get the chance to stop in. They aren't just an Airport restaurant. They are all over London. If you like sushi, this is as good as I have found in Europe and at a good price. As my hip hop friend says, "Eat it up, YO!"

Called for a table on a Saturday night which was available as they told us that the rush cleared out not that long ago. Menu was quite impressive. So much to choose from. It was a mixture of Chinese, Japanese, Korean and plenty of other dishes that I've never even heard of. Obviously what we get in the states is completely different from what you get in the UK.

We not only decided t not order from them again, but we threw away the leftovers. The menu had quite a bit of variety and we really wanted to like it, but the quality just wasn't there. The steamed prawn dumpling and shu mai combo was tasteless and cold. Beef and broccoli was so salty that no one finished it. The rice was very dry and you got i small cup that came with it for 2 cups of a dish. Bad ratio. Pork chow mein had a funny after taste ....One of our group tried the sushi and said it was old tasting so she didn't finish it. Just a bust on everything.

I understand from other reviewers that it's mainly a delivery service, but they certainly seemed to be doing well catering for the lunchtime market, judging by the available selection of delicious sushi boxes on the chiller shelves. It's hard to choose what to get as it all looks so delicious! They have a good selection of veggie sushi too, which is always nice to see. The prices are perhaps a little on the expensive side; I spent just over £10 on two sushi boxes and a drink, which was a little over my usual lunch budget. But I didn't regret it as the sushi was excellent and certainly kept me going throughout a busy Festival afternoon.

I'm also generally a fan of seaweed salad to pick at, but this portion was a hefty size I happily gobbled up. It's also real seaweed (I have no idea what I've been picking at this while time!) Hefty servings of wasabi, soy sauce and ginger too. Delivery was fairly quick (about 45 minutes across town) and service was friendly.
