Oiishi Japanese Restaurant & Takeaway

I had a fantastic experience at Oiishi in East Kilbride! As someone with coeliac disease, finding safe and delicious gluten-free options can be tricky — but Oiishi really delivered. I started with the Ikaten with Shichimi Chilli – perfectly cooked fried squid with a flavourful kick from the Japanese 7 spice salt. For my main, I went for the Scotch Fillet Steak – it was tender, beautifully cooked, and packed with flavour. The staff were really friendly and made me feel completely at ease about my dietary requirements, which makes such a difference. It’s great to see a Japanese restaurant take gluten-free dining seriously while still offering a great range of dishes. Highly recommend if you’re gluten free (or not!) and looking for somewhere new to try in the area. I’ll definitely be back!

Stands out above every other Japanese restaurant in Scotland. Food is lovely, of a good quality. Though be warned; their miso soup (which appears on the vegetarian bento box) is not actually miso soup, but pork-miso soup. Katsu and Amai are great as are the koroke (though I once got karage delivered instead of koroke -staff's English language is not great so be careful when telling them about allergies) Re allergies; the katsu sometimes has dairy, sometimes has gluten depending on which staff member you ask. Overall the place is a lovely setting, deliveries are great, food very tasty, my only real gripe really is allergy information and lack of alternatives to accommodate allergies.
