Maki & Ramen has officially opened its 3rd Glasgow site on the city’s Byres Road replacing the former Esushi restaurant. This will be the companies first franchised venue.
The ten-year-old brand was launched by founder Teddy Lee, who studied in a sushi academy in Tokyo, in Edinburgh in 2015 and now has four venues in Edinburgh, three in Glasgow and one in both Leeds in Manchester. It also has plans to open in Aberdeen’s Union Square and Birmingham soon.
The new Glasgow venue is a laid-back space with a mix of modern design and traditional touches and will serve the Japanese soul food the brand is famous for including ramen and hand-crafted sushi.
Owner Teddy Lee said, “We at Maki & Ramen are proud to announce our first Franchised branch is in the heart of Glasgow’s West End! It has been a fantastic road to get our Byres Road site open and we are delighted to be partnered with such an amazing opening team. Thank you to everyone involved who made this happen! Here’s to more Maki’s in the future!”
