We came here as this was highly recommended to us by the pub next door (The Montgomerie Arms). The service was pathetic. No smiles at all as we came in. We sat down and were given the menus, but a table that came after us was given attention to first, which surprised me. After taking their order they didn't even look towards us and walked away. Ofcourse they got their food before us as well. I had to flag the staff down to get someone to take our order. Nobody came to check on us during our meal. When we finished, the table beside us was done as well. Someone came and cleared their plates up immediately and got them the bill. Didn't look at our table at all, we waited with the dirty plates for a while before deciding to pay at the till! Thankfully we were not charged for service. On a busy day, I would completely understand. But the place was dead, maybe 4 tables occupied, 3 staff on the floor. And while we kept looking towards them to try and get their attention, they were busy standing around. As the people around us got attention, we felt that there might be some sort of racial bias, for their complete ignorance. To the owners, please consider sending your floor staff to the pub next door to understand the basics of customer service. A pity as we were looking forward to the meal here all day.

A perfect summer surprise at Oiishi. A longtime favourite that keeps getting better. My partner and I have been coming to Oiishi for over six years now, and not once have we left disappointed. This time, we decided to try their new summer tasting menu for my birthday, a bit of a change from our usual favourites, and we were pleasantly surprised. The experience was beautifully paced, allowing us to really savour each dish as it arrived. The summer menu gave us the chance to try things we might never have ordered otherwise, and it opened our eyes to some fantastic new flavours. Highlights included the melt-in-your-mouth wagyu beef, the delicate and refreshing ebi summer rolls, and the beautifully presented tuna tartare. Every bite was thoughtful and refined. We ended the evening with a refreshing mango sorbet, which came with a delightful little surprise, a perfect way to round off what was a special birthday date night. If I had to pick a negative, which ultimately wasn’t a negative as it still tasted delicious as it is, was the Chilled Ramen with Volcano sauce didn’t have a lot of spice to it. We were expecting to have a kick of heat but it wasn’t there. The staff were exceptional throughout, attentive, informative, and welcoming. Each dish was introduced with care, and a personal visit from the chef to check on our experience was a warm and much-appreciated gesture. For the quality and variety, the summer menu is excellent value. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you’re looking for a relaxed, high-quality tasting experience that offers both comfort and creativity, we can’t recommend Oiishi enough.

Recently discovered this wee place, been twice within the week. Food is lovely and fresh, with great variety. Very surprised when our bill came, thought it was going to be more expensive. Teriyaki salmon is definitely highlight of the menu so far Would highly recommend

I had a amazing experience at this restaurant! The atmosphere is wonderful, providing the perfect setting for a delightful meal. The sushi is truly exquisite—beautifully prepared and incredibly fresh. The service is excellent, with staff who are both attentive and welcoming. A special mention goes to the sushi chef, who is not only highly skilled but also rather handsome! The sushi is a masterpiece, both in taste and presentation. I highly recommend a visit here—not only will you enjoy superb service and food, but you’ll also get the pleasure of watching a very talented and handsome chef in action. It’s well worth a visit!
