Hanami

Excellent sushi A lovely place for sushi, if a little cramped. We can ended up on a tiny window seat, which didn't give us a huge amount of elbow room... but we don't need that, we need tasty food. And this place certainly has that! miso soup, 8/10 seaweed salad, 8/10 prawn kataifi, 8/10, they were really nice, interesting change from the regular from tempura, but honestly I'd probably just go for tempura next time. Takoyaki, 9/10, This dish is usually pretty standard, but this was somehow more flavourful than normal, very very good. lava roll, 8/10, not quite what I expected, being drenched in cheese was by no means a bad thing though :) prawn tempura, 9/10, oh yeah I forgot, we got snacky after chatting for a bit and ended up getting tempura anyway. It was excellent. Service was great, our waitress Sofia was a darling, really helpful, and has excellent taste in music 👌

Very good experience in this little restaurant. We just popped in for lunch and had the Sukiyaki. Shared with 2 people, it's a generous amount of food: lots of beef and a variety of vegetables in the pot. Also an enjoyable experience to have the hot pot at the table. Overall, delicious. We also had the mochi for dessert, which was also good. Service was attentive.

Disappointing meal to be honest. The sashimi was nice, but the miso soup was not great and neither was the agedashi tofu or the rest of the food. Don’t get me wrong, it was fine in parts (ie acceptable). But I didn’t leave feeling good and I won’t return. The mayo seemed thick like it was out of a cheap bottle, the beef texture was not pleasant, the speciality dragon roll was not great. The American server was also quite clueless, we asked about whether a bowl was from and she just said ‘don’t ask me’ and that was her approach to any questions. The setting and crockery is beautiful. But sadly, the food just wasn’t anywhere near the standard of sushi and Japanese that we had in Edinburgh. I wanted to love this place, but it just wasn’t for me. This was a disappointing (expensive) meal, sadly.

Absolutely delicious food!! They have a pretty good range on the menu. We had the beef donburi, teriyaki steak large plate and the yakiniku. All dishes were fresh, hot and lovely. The staff were very lovely. The setting is fine, small but wasn’t busy when we were here. Most certainly would return!

Thank you for the nice meal today, despite not having reservations we were allowed to walk in. We had to wait a while for our food, but it just means it's prepared fresh. I think it's the best we have tried so far in Glasgow. The sushi is good and tasty, rice of sushi is seasoned just right and perfect. The Yakitori bowls are delightful - especially the spicy bbq sauce which has the best kick, serving size is generous too.
