New to Meadowbank, Japanese restaurant Nagoya feels like it needs a little time to grow into itself. Let’s hope that it does, because this is an area that sorely needs a cosy neighbourhood restaurant or two. It’s a promising beginning – a neat-as-a-pin interior with pretty yellow shell wallpaper and an appealing, good-value menu with lots of choice. Prawn and vegetable gyoza are neatly presented and tasty, as are scallop and spring onion skewers, served in a sticky, sweet sauce. A mixed rolled sushi platter is good, although doesn’t wow, and a mixed prawn and vegetable tempura comes with lots of prawns but only one vegetable. There’s also a ‘home cooking’ section with dishes such as mapo tofu, tofu and minced pork in a chilli and bean sauce. At lunch times, there’s a very reasonable meal deal for £7.70. For dessert, you can have strawberry daifuku, a combination of glutinous rice, red bean paste and fresh strawberries. Meaning ‘great luck’, it’s an appropriate end to a meal. One wishes it wholeheartedly for Nagoya.
- High point: Very reasonably priced
- Low point: Slightly lacking in atmosphere

Very nice Japanese Restaurant, tiny but very friendly. Passed here serveral times and very excited to see this nice restaurant here. Had 2 times experience here, very delicious food especially the tempura and sushi, very fresh and tasted. Although it is not in city center, but very good for me as i don't like too noisy. Strongly recommend.

Excellent Sushi. We gorged ourselves on a selection of Sashimi, nigiri and maki. All of it fresh and delicious. The dumplings were also great. There may be some fancier looking competitors, but these guys could well be the best Sushi in Edinburgh!
