It’s an average place that has seemed to pick up hype online. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich, gyozas and a corn dog (not photographed). The sandwich is filled for presentation so it looks like it’s bursting but actually there is barely anything in the bottom half. The flavour is fine but nothing mind blowing. The gyozas are good The corn dog is average, there are better options nearby for better flavour and cheese-pull. I have had their sweet toast before and that was great but don’t think I’d be going back for lunch.

I wanted to try this place for a while, so when finally in, I decided to follow a recommendation of the friend and one of their rice-wich. I got Tempura Prawn Rice-wich with a side of Chicken and Vegetable Gyozas. Gyozas were nice, even though I could barely taste the chicken in it. Rice-wich is certainly interesting idea and while prawns were very tasty, there was definitely not enough of them to balance the ratio of the rice. And for the price of £9 it was actually pretty small. While I don't think I will be back too often I would still like to try some of their other stuff that are more Korean or the sweet toast. If you are looking for something quick and different from the everyday Scottish food, then for sure, go try it out, however I do find it quite pricey.

This was a nice break from all the Scottish food my husband and I have been eating. I got the Korean Beef Toast and my Husband got the same but as a Rice-Which. Both were amazing. For the Toast, the breat was soft and flakey and the beef was well marinated.
