On the day we went (I think it was a Tuesday lunch) they were out of several items
-
It seems that the lack of tuna is a regular occurrence
-
I can't point to any item that was really a stand out
-
The eggplant was very tasty but too oily
-
Where else am I going to enjoy warm sake with such good food
-
This a fairly small restaurant with fresh yet warm decor and
-
A great atmosphere and if you're lucky enough with seating you'll even be able to have a good nosey into the kitchen
-
The hand rolls were freshly prepared so the seaweed was still crispy and the avocado was perfectly ripe
-
It would be a huge mistake for a restaurant like this to fall short on its sushi and sashimi and they didm't the fish was so fresh you'd be forgiven for thinking it had been caught that morning
-
Green tea and spring water was just under £
-
D normally pay for a visit to an average Japanese restaurant and this is just so much better
-
Having heard it is by far the best sushi in Edinburgh
-
The service was amazing and even though we were seated by the bar (last minute reservation will get you that) it was a nice atmosphere since we were right in front of the chefs
-
We only tasted 7 different sushi dishes (we swore we would try different ones next time) some we knew and some Kanpai special rolls too and it was like heaven
-
The wait/price are all well worth it I can guarantee
-
T deny that Kanpai is a step above the rest
-
I have had a lot of sushi in my time and this experience has had me rethink whether all the ones before were the real thing
-
Kanpai's food and staff surpassed any expectations I had with a phenomenal combination of class and flair
-
Grilled aubergine with miso will tempt you away from salmon nigiri and takoyaki is a must
-
Was a crisp evening and our taste buds were bubbling with excitement
-
We were sat with plenty of room in the middle of the restaurant and able to take in the atmosphere of the tables surrounding us
-
The menu was fantastic with a great variety of sushi and filled with colourful photo&rsquo
-
A few members found that chopsticks were a difficult obstacle but perseverance is the name of the game
-
One such member he was so good with chopsticks that he attempted the Miso Soup with them&hellip
-
Another member decided using them as spears was a much more effective method&hellip
-
It was followed with a selection of bright dishes including Avocado Maki
-
All went down well and accompanied with a delicate tea pot of soy and a plate of pickled ginger and wasabi
-
Delightful in texture and served with what can only be described as tasty saw dust
-
Again there was no faulting the quality of the food
-
The smiles were beaming from our faces as we tucked in
-
Tuna married together with avocado and also the Kan Pai Special roll which was King Prawn &
-
The Saki was delightfully sipped throughout the night from the small cup like bowls and it was both smooth and warming down to the chest
-
The Sapporo was as good as ever and very refreshing throughout the dining experience
-
I think we were in agreement that in terms of food quality this venue stole the show and I would highly recommend to anyone
-
The food here is truly delicious
-
All of the food was beautifully presented
-
Kanpai is the best known secret in Edinburgh
-
A packed restaurant was somehow able to squeeze us in
-
The prawns were covered in a light batter that complemented the succulent meat
-
The dipping sauces added an extra dimension of umami and rice was sticky enough for my poor chopstick technique
-
My boyfriend and I booked a last minute table but because it was a Tuesday night they managed to squeeze us in
-
The interior has a similar feel to Japanese izakaya's with its hidden spaces and its secluded dining feel
-
The Tayoyako octopus fish cake was the perfect warm touch to our meal and closely resembled the same dish we had in Tokyo
-
I couldn't fault any of the food but the star of the show was definitely the sashimi
-
It arrived as a piece of art and I could almost taste how good it was going to be before I picked up my first piece
-
The selection was fantastic and the taste outstanding
-
It wasn't the cheapest sushi we've had but it was arguably the best and I can't wait to go back for more authentic Japanese sushi experiences
-
So fresh and tasty and the presentation was incredible
-
This is definitely 1 of the best sushi places in the world
-
The interior setup is very original as well
-
So delicate fish and all the food was put together with perception and care
