Sushiya Japanese

In Dalry, Edinburgh, Sushiya Japanese channels a focused taste of Japan, balancing pristine sushi craft with steaming bowls of ramen. The cooking leans into clean, defined flavours, letting quality fish and slow-cooked broths speak for themselves.

Sushi leads with salmon and tuna sashimi cut for purity and bite, before rolling into maki mainstays: a spicy salmon number with a lick of heat and the ever-popular California roll. To start, truffle salted edamame and crisp-edged gyoza set a savoury tone, with light salads and prawn skewers bringing fresh contrast.

When comfort calls, a tonkotsu ramen built on pork bones delivers deep, milky richness, while the Hell Ramen turns up the spice with pork and plentiful toppings. Sweet finishes come by way of Sushiya Ice Cream and assorted mochi, and the drinks list nods to tradition with Ozeki Junmai Sake, BIJOFU Ginjo and Sushiya's Special Japanese whisky. Book a table, bring an appetite, and let the chopsticks do the talking.
