Easily one of the best Japanese in Edinburgh (and we're kind of food snobs). An unassuming looking place, cash only and tiny. Book if you can. Oh, and did we mention it's BYOB?!

Neighborhoods

Lots of nice wine bars/ coffee shops/restaurants and historic architecture. Edinburgh in a nutshell, yet feels like a village. The farmer's market on a Sunday is well worth a look.
