text: One of the newest sushi and Japanese food restaurants in Edinburgh, and bringing some sushi-eats to the slightly quieter Tollcross / Bruntsfield area. In fact, this area of town that was previously mainly coffee and sandwich shops now boasts Tuk Tuk Indian food, The Hanging Bat Americana pulled pork, thai restaurants, the Three Birds for seasonal local Scottish fare, so it's nice to see some Japanese food make this corner of Edinburgh even more delicious.\n\nI preface all reviews of sushi restaurants by noting the difference between sushi in the UK, and sushi in California / Australia / Japan itself. Good sushi in the UK and Edinburgh can be very, very good -- but it'll never be the same quality, and value for money, as in the Cali / Japan. Here the UK you'll pay \u00a325 for enough sushi to feed you for dinner, and it's seen as a delicacy -- not the other way around where you pay $15 and get as much sushi of the highest quality that you can eat, with some beef on the side for good measures. It's just how it goes here.\n\nSo with that in mind, Harajuku Kitchen is good sushi, that will satisfy your sushi-cravings in the Burgh, although it is pretty pricey and can leave a wee hole in your pocket without feeling overly full (as is often the way of sushi and value for money).\n\nThe sushi they do is lovely. A nice range, with some interesting things I haven't seen before. I went with some rainbow rolls, and mackerel nigiri -- nicely presented on a big plate. My dining partner had a piece of fish in sauce, so there are option that are not-raw and more cooked meals which might suit other palates too.\n\nA nice wee restaurant, nice wee sushi pieces, would definitely come back and its a nice fresh addition to the neighbourhood.
