We stopped here for a meal on our through to Canberra (from Melbourne). The venue was busy and we were seated at a table instead of the sushi train. Consequently, we were given a menu (because we weren't able to view items on the train). The menu was just a tad confusing. Some items appearing in the a la carte section of the menu (with prices) also appeared in the hot food section of the menu (unpriced). As a result, we ordered karaage off the a la carte. The karaage was good, probably a little over cooked on the outside. The serving size was large. The large serving size, along with the slightly overcooked batter meant that the thought of eating deep fried food for the following couple of weeks made me feel off (but in some cases there was no other option during our travels). The nigiri was fine. There was confusion regarding our order (that we didn't raise at the time because it was minor and there was no point making a fuss). So when ordering with the staff, just be extremely clear with your order. I asked for salmon nigiri but was served auburi salmon nigiri (for me this means something because I am very fussy with my nigiri and seafood). Reflecting on the menu, their distinction was "fresh salmon nigiri" and "grilled salmon nigiri"; and I only asked for "salmon nigiri" without being explicit that I wanted fresh salmon nigiri. As it was, the grilled salmon nigiri tasted good, with a tasty sauce dressing. The gyoza wasn't the best I've tasted - the skins were a little soggy and my partner didn't like the taste of the filling, while I was ok with the taste of the filling. My partner also had an udon and was happy with the dish. Drinks appeared to be "serve yourself" from the fridge, at least we were directed to take what we wanted (and the drinks included Ramune). The light in the male toilet desperately needed repairing, which has hopefully been done by now - the strobing effect was nauseating (I had to used the female toilet). Price point for the meal may have been a little high compared to the quality and enjoyment of the meal. Overall we were ok with the meal but we've experienced much better in places that could be considered towns that are out of the way locations (e.g. one venue in Launceston, Tasmania, had some of the best sushi/nigiri we've experienced and in a...
Read moreQuality food and good service, I will be returning here many more times.
Delicious food - serve an excellent grilled salmon nigiri and eel nigiri. My first time here there was a small amount of sinew on one of the pieces of salmon but the other 3 pieces were perfect, second visit all pieces were perfect. I requested a seaweed salad which wasn't on the menu but they had no hesitantion in providing it, it was brought out as one of my last dishes though. I also requested chilli powder which isn't on the menu and they provided a very decent amount - was very happy about this.
Fast service bringing out food ordered off of the menu and quite a few options of the sushi train (conveyor belt).
Service was prompt and staff were friendly. They did start cleaning the floors at about 8pm (open until 8.45pm) which seemed abit rushed as we were still eating/drinking, but we were the last people left in the shop.
Both the grilled nigiri and spicy chicken and avocado nori rolls were...
Read moreYuu sushi is a place I just can't stop coming back to. The sushi is absolutely amazing and the staff are just as amazing. Always have service with a smile and are always happy to help.
The sushi produced is world class, with my girlfriend being a seasoned traveller to Japan of 4 times, expressing that the sushi here being the best she has ever had.
The chefs are a pleasure to watch and it is really quite cool to watch them whip up the rolls.
It can be quite expensive however you're willing to pay for quality. This is one of the best sushi trains I have visited.
Looking forward to seeing more additions to the menu and...
