"After hearing great things about Yamato, we finally decided to give it a try and I must say, it definitely lived up to the hype! The moment we walked in, we knew it was going to be a great dining experience. The restaurant had a charming decor, with fresh fish on display and a wide range of Sake options to choose from. We tried a mix of dishes we knew we would enjoy and some authentic Japanese cuisine, all of which were fantastic. The crispy sushi roll, made with tuna, avocado, lumpfish caviar, and fried rice, was one of the best I've ever had. The spicy tuna and salmon maki rolls were equally delicious and fresh. The tempura squid was tender with a perfectly crispy batter. The nigiris we ordered - Scottish salmon, bluefin tuna, and scallop - were all incredibly fresh. We also tried the Chawanmushi, which was packed with flavor. For dessert, we had the white sesame ice cream, which was creamy and nutty. We also enjoyed some sake, opting for the Yamato Shizuku. The price was reasonable for the quality and quantity we received. The service was attentive and friendly, with our table constantly being cleared and refreshed with more delicious dishes from Yamato. In my opinion, Yamato is a top contender for the best Japanese restaurant in Edinburgh."
