Yooji’s is a multi takeaway, dine in, or pickup a prepared ready made packaged meal.
On the street level ground floor you can pickup a prepackaged meal for quick pickup on the go or eat in. Downstairs is the sushi train restaurant which enables you to take a seat and pick a meal from the train as it passes your table seating.
There is the option to order from the menu individually or you can call for service on the tablet and a waiter will visit you to assist with your order.
My partner and I visited for diner and was hoping to obtain a hot meal. They do serve hot Miso soup (mild or spicy), but when asking if they had chicken dishes it was found only cold strips of chicken teriyaki was available. It was surprising there was no chicken in a sushi roll.
When we ordered miso soup we asked for tap water and the waitress brought a carafe of water. When departing after we had finished the bill noted that the tap water was 3 Swiss franc (which was quite surprising).
The restaurant was extremely busy and a large group ahead of us was asked to return later (which they did) as there were no seats available for the large party to be seated.
The staff are very helpful and speak English. The venue does have a lot of freshly made dishes available consistently moving around the sushi train and they will make Poke bowls from the menu, along with noodle soups.
If you see a dish passing you via the Sushi Train and you are wondering what is in the dish, you can pickup the dish and place it on top of the “information tab” at your table seating for a quick description of the dish and it contents displayed on your tablet in...
Read moreIn this review, I would have preferred giving Yooji's a 4.5 star rating because there has been more improvement in the quality and variety of products here in Zürich. This chain actually took the courageous effort to open sooner when local lockdown measures were eased. They have at least 2 hot noodle soups as dine-in or takeaways, and the sashimi and sushi were fresh as ever. Beer and Japanese label alcoholic beverages were available, and some sweet snacks and desserts help round out the meal. The place was very clean, and there were handicapped as well as regular toilets available. I would like to see larger portion items on the menu as the quarantine restrictions ease up. We were also surprised when we found 3 different types of Japanese Salad Dressing sold in the refrigerated section. Now if they can stock up on similar popular Japanese crackers, condiments, and snacks, it would be a refreshing take on Asian cuisine. A serious expansion and inclusion of items would be a welcome opportunity for everyone to sample contemporary...
Read moreNice sushi-bar restaurant. The carousel for sushi and dishes works as the traditional japanese ones. You can even order specialties and cocktails using a touchscreen system which is really comfortable. The variety of rolls is large, they also include some creations from their chef that tend to be tasty. The ingredients are as fresh as possible (frozen tuna was not that bad) and there is always a guide for food allergies that you can look for using the screen,which is really great. The overall ambiance is casual-chich and friendly without being noisy. I have to say that it is pricey but it depends also on how much and what you eat (the cheapest maki rolls are 5.50 while the most expensive sashimi or nigiri can go up to 12.5 CHF per small portion, the cocktails are around 10-15 CHF). Recommended for those craving for sushi and who don't care much about the price tag on the tower of dishes at the end....
