Yamato - Edinburgh, City of

The food is outstanding and the servers are very attentive. We’ve never been to a Japanese restaurant and this was a great one to visit for the first time. Everyone enjoyed their choice of meal and if any of us had to wait for something, they were quick to bring a small complimentary item to make up for the delay. My daughter was even given a dessert for free because her choice didn’t come with one and ours did!

Amazing every time. We ordered full table of food twice. So fresh and tasty. Try the brussel sprouts!

Absolutely authentic fresh sushi served from a sushi counter by experienced chefs. First time I have had chowanmushi outside of Tokyo and it was excellent. Tempura prawns, teriyaki beef, karage chicken, seaweed salad all perfect. Staff are delightful and setting is contemporary Japanese. I will definitely be back again and again.

Lovely chawanmushi with truffle and prawns. Good sushi with fresh Scottish fish (salmon was very good). Super rolls, including rolls with tempura prawns through them which were yummy. Reasonably priced for food of this quality. Service was good and the place has a nice ambience (it was nearly but not quite full). Will go again next time in Edinburgh.

Started off with a very nice G&T with a hint of cherry. We had 8 courses to share between two of us and everything they served was excellent. A bit pricy but as as expected as the quality was very good.
