Great to see Itsu back in Edinburgh after a temporary closure. This restaurant is clean, quick and in a great location. Staff are smart, friendly and competent. There are about a half dozen self service tills and you can order at the counter. I always use self service so I can scan calories and costs. I've never seen a broken self service machine. Itsu does healthier food and does it well. Sadly, that means portion sizes are a bit small for me and so I'm on the lookout for a filling side. It might be that I get the delicious 200 calories of their mocha instead, too often. It can get busy, but at predictable times and they do staff up accordingly. As a rule, the food arrives with appropriate haste. Lots of the cold food is ready made and good to go almost immediately. Itsu is ideally placed for anyone trekking out of Waverley and on search for quick but real food.
