The new hotel, at St James Quarter, will bring a playful twist on Scottish culinary culture with three dining concepts. The top floors and panoramic terraces of the hotel will be home to Scotland’s first Sushisamba restaurant and a Brazilian-inspired speakeasy cocktail bar named Joao’s Place, alongside a buzzing iteration of the W Lounge.
Bookings for the first tables across all restaurants and bars are now open ahead of the hotel’s November launch. To book a table or make an enquiry, visit www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/ediwh-w-edinburgh/dining/
1. Sushisamba
Born of the energy and spirit of the three distinct cultures of Japan, Brazil and Peru, Sushisamba will be bringing its imaginative cuisine to W Edinburgh. From Japanese tempura and exquisite sushi, to Brazilian churrasco and moqueca, to Peruvian anticuchos and seviches, the culinary creativity is limitless with something for every palate.

The ever-evolving menu will feature a selection of Sushisamba signatures among new Edinburgh specialties incorporating the finest local Scottish produce. The open kitchen and fiery robata grill offer brilliantly roasted and flavored meats, vegetables and fish, while Sushisamba’s small plate style of service encourages a “shared” dining experience.
