"This restaurant is always amazing to visit. I tried the tan tan men this time, and my partner had tonkotsu ramen. Wonderful! The starters we had were great too, as well as the drinks (we had the melon float and the yuzu fizz). Outstanding service from our waitress (I cannot recall her name, started by M, but I remember she had some braids in her hair explained our options very clearly and in a simple way, was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. Will be back soon for another date night!"

"I was really looking forward to visiting this restaurant and finally decided to go with some friends. I enjoy the concept of choosing your own dishes, but it can get pricey if you're not careful. Overall, I loved most of the food and had a great time. I gave it a 3.5 rating mainly because of the enjoyable memories made with my friends."

"Came hungry after a long day of exploring the city of Edinburgh. We were pleased to find this lovely restaurant tucked away off of castle street away from the hustle and bustle. The food was of the highest quality, and the service from our waitress Lila was excellent. Will definitely be recommending this to anyone who will listen."

"The reviews I had read indicated that the food was excellent, but the staff were unfriendly and the restaurant was lacking. However, my experience was completely different. The staff were friendly and even helped me select a sake, despite my lack of knowledge. Every dish we had was the best Japanese food we have ever tasted. This noodle bar is the best I have been to personally and was a delightful surprise."

"This is a review for the take away only, I haven’t been inside the restaurant. The delivery was smooth and the sushi was amazing. The sashimi fish was top quality and so fresh! Miso soup was good too. There was a sushi burrito wish was delicious. Definite top sushi place in the city centre."

"was so on this meal after the reviews I had seen online, but could not be disappointed by the experience. it is a shame because eating itself, was not bad, it was the service that left this place down. arriving, we were not asked about booking, had to stop a waiter so that they took our order, our starters sat cold on another table until they realized that it was for us to forget about drink order and to close it, only 1 main course had to ask us that we had not had to ask it took another 15/20 minutes to come and there was no real excuse from the personal, they simply brushed it with a discount. it ruined the whole meal and felt all the time at the ransom, as I didn't know if I started my meal or wait for my partner to bury in front of it. my rarmen was pretty good to be fair, and so were my partners when it arrived, but the "bbq belly pork" he ordered on the side was stone cold. uncomfortable feeling, we paid and gone. usually I am with waiting times, wrong command etc. if properly recognized, but the lack of interest from the personal was bad"

"Just got back from an early dinner at this place and had to write this review. This was my first time eating Japanese cuisine and so I went with a friend and an open mind. What a great first experience! The service staff were attentive and so polite and courteous… rushed off their feet as it was pretty full but still smiling and always approachable. The food exceeded my expectations we both had the vegetarian sweet potato croquette curry with rice and it really was so tasty and satisfying. We also had the cucumber starter and it was fresh and flavourful. The raspberry mocktail I ordered was the only thing with which I was unimpressed. It was nothing more than a normal glass of some cordial with sparkling water which for £6 was quite extortionate. I’ll be back for the food again for sure!"
"I was appalled about the quality of the service from the moment I arrived at the moment when I left what was when I arrived, I was not asked if I wanted a drink, and I was not asked about the whole meal. the waitress should have seen on the table that we only had water and asked if we wanted a drink. then we ordered our first round hot food. I pressed the help button and after waiting for a good minute for the waitress finally arrived. I felt it was too long. at this point in the evening there were three complete tables throughout the restaurant, so I thought the time we had to wait was bad. then the food began to come, but it didn't come quite. a few dishes came and then a few more and a few more afterwards. that meant that we didn't all eat together, we all ate at different times. I had ordered two dishes to eat at the same time and they did not arrive at the same time. very disappointing. the third order of hot food was beyond a sweat. it was clear that one of the two waitresses did not feel very comfortable (I heard one of the chiefs who told her to go home) she was our waitress. So we ordered the third round hot food. minutes later, we hadn't had our food yet. in this time the cook spoke with the sick waitress. then I pressed the help button and I explained that we had ordered something to eat and waited a long time. then I look at the waitress and the cook and it was absolutely clear that the order did not go through so that it was only then that the food started to cook. the waitress who took the order explained that there were many problems and it was sorry for her. as a customer who paid for a meal, I did not care about the problems, I still expected a good service and my food to turn. overall I thought the service was absolutely terrible. I will not visit this restaurant again and I will not recommend the restaurant to everyone."

"My second visit here after 2 years, food is still good in quality. The reason I didn’t give 5 star is because I think this Japanese restaurant is like an average Japanese restaurant we can find in Asia. Food is good quality. Service is good as well. The sukiyaki, Godzilla roll, beef rice are equally good. Will definitely come back again."

"We have visited by chance as my husband fancied a Ramen! It's a lovely small restaurant in the centre of Banbury. Food and presentation are excellent There is a wide variety of dishes to choose from I have a gluten and diary allergy and the restaurant Manager provides advice on dishes and ensured my food was safe to eat. I have had a stir fry and it was delicious Great value and experience in overall."

"Once seated, we placed our order promptly as we were quite hungry. Unfortunately, we waited for over an hour for our food to arrive, all the while having to repeatedly request water which was often ignored. We had a young child with us who is sensitive to black pepper, and we specifically asked for the dish to be prepared without it. However, our request was disregarded, and when the dish was served to the child, she had a terrible reaction. When we brought this issue to the server's attention, there was a lack of apology and accommodation. To make matters worse, a service charge was added to the bill without our consent. When we asked for it to be removed, the staff did so without inquiring about our concerns. Overall, our experience at this restaurant was simply dreadful."

"The Japanese restaurant offered a wide variety of dishes. We ordered a platter, katsu curry, seaweed as a starter, prawn tempura, and seafood gyozas. Everything was delicious and served promptly. The service was excellent, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The menu had a large selection of options, ensuring that everyone would find something they enjoyed. Overall, a fantastic dining experience."

"Oh my goodness, what an amazing find in Finnieston! The restaurant isn't very big, but we were lucky to get a table early on. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. My colleague ordered the chicken katsu and I had the beef bulgogi. The portions were so generous that I struggled to finish my meal. It's definitely enough to share when you order an extra side of rice. The food was delicious and I highly recommend it, especially if you're in the area or at the SEC (a short 15-minute walk away). It's well worth a visit."

"Wonderful bowl of traditional style ramen, ordered the black garlic tonkatsu. Rich broth and would recommend the hell sauce on the side to add heat to your preference. The salmon avocado maki roll was excellent as well. Have visited a few of their locations around Edinburgh and this one is the only restaurant serving their bao buns (which look excellent)"

"Tucked away in a basement on Strutton Ground, this tiny little establishment appears to be pretty authentic. Despite it being a random weekday evening, it fills up very quickly and by the time we’re heading up to leave, it’s pretty much full. We arrive a variety of elements to share and everything arrives promptly. The soft shell crab tempura is lightly battered, hot and fresh, but it does lack a certain wow factor. However, the selections of the different types of Sashimi we’ve gone for are all fresh and light and very clearly of the highest quality so we find ourselves ordering a few more of these to keep us going. The chicken gyoza is better than most other dumpligns I’ve tried, served warm with a very comforting and nourishing filling, they bulk out what is otherwise quite a light meal. Service is a little slow, with the size of the place, there’s only one girl busily running around trying to get to everyone, but the food is absolutely top notch. Worth going with a few more people and ordering up a larger selection!"

"Probably one of the most disappointing Japanese meals I have ever had. Since I lived in Japan for 20 years, I know what good Japanese food is supposed to be like. The tori karaage almost had no chicken in it and was mostly skin, which I have never seen before. Is this a money-saving measure? Shockingly price at almost eight pounds. Their Japanese sausages while authentic were way too small and overpriced. If you still want to go to Tosa, I would suggest getting the nasu dengaku, which was quite good, and perhaps some yakitori (although this too is overpriced . But the most disappointing part of my Tosa experience started before I even went there. When I called to book a table, I was greeted in a rude manner by the Japanese lady who took my call. Moreover, this same woman was rude when I was in the restaurant. (If you must go to Tosa, talk to the other staff, who are much friendlier. One of the best things about going to a Japanese restaurant outside of Japan is to experience the great service that you would normally receive at many restaurants at Japan, so in this respect Tosa fell far short of my expectations. If you are in west London and have a hankering for Japanese food, go to Kiraku, where the service is far better, even though the menu may currently be less extensive."

"The super polite staff are on hand to offer recommendations for anyone that hasn't already perused the menu and pre picked what they're going for! Food was delicious and the presentation was on point. Already organising my next visit..."
