Yuniku Leiden — Restaurant in Leiden

We will never go back there. I was there with my boyfriend for lunch, after booking by phone. Until that, everything okay. When we arrived, a waiter that seemed to be leading the shift gave us a table and he explained us the menu. As soon as we made one question about it, he already was annoyed. Good start. Really important is that when we arrived the restaurant was almost completely empty, no rush at all.. We made our first order and first they gave us the beers. And they putted it in our glasses like if it was pig meal or similar. They totally filled the glass with the beer foam, and they made it every time that we ordered a new beer and also when the beer in the bottle was almost finished, the waitress emptied the bottle in the glass with the same horrible method, without even ask. The service in general was the worst I've ever seen. Apart from one nice girl that unfortunately was not our waitress, we didn't see one smile from the girl that was serving our table. Not one. Even when we were speaking to her asking for something, we were nice and smiling and she was acting like if for her was really a burden to take care of our meal. The resulting feeling on our dinner of course wasn't exciting.. The food.. Actually in the beginning you can think the food looks really nice and good, and the menu has a good number of different choices. BUT! After the first round, you can clearly understand that all the sushi is filled with superfat and oily sauces or overfried pieces of... I don't know what.. , not even showed on the menu, that just exist for making you full fast. And this stuff is covering all the taste of what you are eating. At the end of the meal, like if all this wasn't enough, the waitress started to clean the table with us there, chatting in dutch (we were talking all the time in English, so not even the basic education) with another colleague and almost throwing food on me, that I was sitting on my place looking at them trying to understand if it was a joke. All this, with the restaurant having just four tables occupied including our, so totally unnecessary.

I strongly recommend that you choose a better place for your Japanese all you can eat. I ate in many places, but this was really bad. We will not go back there even if will be on...

Should have known it’s a bad sign when there was nobody eating there when we came in at late lunch hour.

All the food that contained raw fish was just horrible. As a Chinese who’ve been eating sushi buffet for quite some years, this is probably the worst sushi I’ve ever had. The salmon sushi (sake) was purely tasteless - no taste of the salmon. You could tell it was just not fresh and just thawed from frozen. Moreover, it was also my first time to have tuna sushi where the tuna is canned tuna. Unbelievable! All the other sushi just tasted so blend and not fresh, whereas the chef just puts tons of mayo/teriyaki sauce to “spice it up”. The sashimi salad was horrible - tasteless fish with extremely creamy sauce - what is that? Seriously.

If I have to say anything good, the grilled items were on the better side. The grilled salmon is okay and the thinned sliced beef. The pan fried vegetables are also okay. So if you are really hungry and you do not have a choice, you can try the pan fried ones. Just do not go for the raw sushi. The spring roll is probably also the smallest I’ve ever saw.

I am Asian myself and I want to support Asian business but I just cannot do it for this restaurant. Btw, it was pretty hot when we visited and they refused to serve water and we had to order water, which just makes the bill higher, since one small bottle is roughly 2 euro. Basically they prefer you to get a heat stroke than offering you tap water, in addition to their already salty food. The price is also not that cheap - 23 euro per person for lunch and it’s not worth it. Maybe try the Shabu Shabu just a couple of hundred meters away - sushi there is a bit better, not a lot though.

Leiden needs to get its s**t together in terms of...

Today I was my first time to go to this restaurant and I went alone. In the beginning it was my fault, after seeing the menu outside and the price, I thought I could order sushi a la carte and eat inside, I didn't know for eating inside I could only choose "all-you-can-eat". After I sat down, the waiter came and asked me what I would like to drink, I said I was fine, I didn't need any drink, then he just told me at least I needed to order a drink. I thought it was fine to order a drink, then I ordered a bottle of water, but also because of that, it made me feel I could order a la carte. I don't know why if it's all-you-can-it, why at least I need to order a drink(drink isn't included in all-you-can-eat, I need to pay separately). In total I ordered 1 bottle of drink and 10 pieces of sushi, after I asked the bill, I found it was all-you-can-eat and I needed to pay 44.75 euros. I told him I didn't know it was all-you-can-eat, then he only told me I could order more to eat, from beginning to end he didn't even want to serve me or solve my problems, the waiter only wanted to force me to consume more any pay more. If the restaurant doesn't respond to me and return me the money, I will report to the local government(Gemeente), so that they can...
