Miso & Sushi

I got takeaway/​delivery the other night and wasn’t all that pleased.
I ordered some Dim Sum and some Udon noodles with terriyake salmon. The Dim Sum was delicious if a bit small and came with a wee bit of dipping sauce in a tub which I was happy about. The noodles ere confusing. I was intrigued at how they planned to arrange transport of a noodle broth and what I got was a bit bewildering. I received a box with the salmon, which was yummy. Then, a box with the ‘salady’ bits and noodles — all cold… additionally the beansprouts had seen better days. Finally a pot of broth which was fairly unappetising, though that may just be me. It was thicker than I’m used to and reminded me of beige sludge.
Perhaps it was a consequence of the delivery but the dish as not pleasant to look at and the old veg didn’t help the taste. The salmon, however, as tasty and the sauce was nice.
The price was reasonable and the £2 delivery and minimum £10 spend is average for the area.
I would probably try the food in the restaurant if i was passing but may not be calling them up again.

Cozy place, lovely sushi, friendly stuff and very good value for money.
I too recommend the Dragon Roll (Tempura shrimp hand roll topping with flying fish roe, personally prefer with cucumber instead of avocado) and Soft shell Crab Roll they are two of my favorites!
They used to offer sesame ice cream mochi which is excellent, don’t know if they still do that.

I came here a few years ago when it was under the previous management and chef. It was really good and food was professionally made. Unfortunately, the chef has changed and the food is just terrible when I ordered delivery 1 year ago. I thought I would give them another chance but unfortunately, I was disappointed yet again. This will be the last time I order from them ever again. I ordered quite a few selection together with a mate. The sushi is just made with too much rice and not much filling and just too big. The rest of the food was substandard. The worst was the salmon sashimi. As with any raw fish, you need fresh fish. We ordered about 12 pieces. Half of it … was still half Frozen! I hate writing bad reviews. Unfortunately, Epic Fail for a Japanese restaurant especially with the frozen salmon.

I used to think, like some of you might too, that sushi was ‘just’ raw fish,.then a friend convinced me to try it. Miso and Sushi was THE place to go apparently… we had take away, so I can’t tell you about the restaurant service, but I will say that the door is opened for you most graciously and so begins your experience.
I was escorted, with much bowing and a very warm greeting, to the subtly placed but open take away section to the rear… whatever your fancy, the feeling is immediately of the old world, the bustle of the day is left behind you.
As a take away customer, there is the added bonus of watching your sushi being made for you, the chef makes it look too easy I might add! As the food is prepared, you pay, of course, but this too feels like some ancient ceremony, all of the staff are so very polite.
I won’t tell you what I had, the choices are yours between several wonderful preparation methods, sushi, sashimi, tempura, the list goes on, but I will say that I loved everything, a fabulous mixture, not just raw fish as I had feared.
The fish I had was excellent and completely turned my opinion on sushi, the rest of the food was equally as good. I loved the whole experience, I’ll sit in next time just to be able to absorb more of the old world feeling.
The staff are so gracious and I highly recommend this place based on that alone, but the food is amazing too, you won’t be disappointed. I love it, it’s hard to be in town and not be drawn here.

My favourite sushi restaurant in Edinburgh. I would never have come here without a recommendation from a friend, so thought I’d best pass the message along.
Situated just along from Haymarket, the restaurant is small and a bit of an ugly duckling. I wouldn’t have been tempted inside by the décor… But if you look past the aesthetics and get inside I’m sure you will be converted too.
The staff are really friendly and the sushi is YUM! Plus you don’t have to pay the exorbitant rates of some of the trendier sushi places in town.
I would highly recommend the Dragon Roll and Softshell Crab Roll which is amazing!
They also do cooked Chinese and Japanese meals — so if you have a friend who is not a sushi fan there’s something for them. Plus they do takeaway.
Really can’t recommend it highly enough. Go and find out for yourself!

I would say this is very good sushi for the price. I tried the japanese salad, marckerel nigiri, egg nigiri, spicy salmon roll, salmon and avocado roll, avocado maki, and ginger maki. First off, the special rolls are HUGE, I could barely fit it in my mouth. They aren’t the best balanced or best made rolls, they sort of fall apart and there a bit too much rice, but they are still good tasting. I wouldn’t order the nigiri next time I went because nigiri is really all about the freshest ingredients and that mackerel was quite pickled. However I would gladly go back, have some tasty green tea, and some spicy salmon roll that really fills me up because there is a lot of rice. The place is very non-​descript, aging, neighborhood restaurant as far as aesthetic. I personally really like that. I feel very comfortable. Service is present but not pushy, you can take your time or wolf your food, whatever you like.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday afternoon all set to eat a mountain of sushi. The takeaway business seemed to be doing well as a number of deliveries went out whilst we were sat there and also 3 or 4 couples came in to collect orders. For the whole hour though my companion and I were the only restaurant customers. Part of the reason for this could well be the place’s décor as it’s nodding towards the shabby (particularly the stair carpet which has a whiff of damp).
No complaints about the service although it took a noticeable while for the table to be cleared and the bill presented. The miso soup was apparently a tad vinegary and the soup part of the chilli beef ramen I had myself became oddly inedible about halfway through. The vegetarian bento box was apparently ok although the green leaf salad was noticeably brown around the edges and for my part I enjoyed the vegetarian sushi set but the pickled ginger had definitely seen better days. Maybe the Chinese food on offer is of a better standard but based on the Japanese part of the menu I don’t see myself going back here.

A small sushi bar at Haymarket, Miso and Sushi is the only Japanese place around here but holds its own by producing flavoursome dishes at great prices!
I stopped here for my lunch with a friend a few weeks ago and after being seated by a lovely waiter, we perused the menu and decided on some tuna te-​maki sushi with green bean tempura to start, and Teryaki chicken udon for my main, both of which were absolutely delicious!
A brilliant wee Japanese restaurant, which also does take-​away and Chinese food! I wish I lived closer!

Situated near Haymarket Station, this interesting little eaterie appears to be housed in an ex chinese restaurant. The décor is a bit dated but the food is of an excellent quality and of very good value!
Popped if for lunch on the reccomendation of a friend and we were not dissappointed!
They have a set lunch menu which includes Bento Boxes at around £10 with free miso soup.
We were advised by our very attentive waiter that in the evenings they offer things like green tea and Saki on the house for regular customers!
The sushimi was very fresh indeed and the Terriyaki Salmon cooked to perfection!
