Yuzu — Restaurant in Cape Girardeau

A wonderful experience all around — elegant and friendly service, pleasant atmosphere, and fantastic food. Every ingredient was supreme quality which really helped bring the dishes together. My personal favorite was the yuzu poke; the fish is a MUCH higher caliber than any other sushi or poke I’ve ever had, and I’ve been to dozens of places including in Chicagoland.

Also a big fan of the yuzu sour!

Ika yaki...

The adult oriented seating of customers appeared to enjoy their entree and the ambiance of this very small side by side compact (Japanese Style) atmosphere. Did not get a chance to sample the Japanese Ramen with Pork Belly — maybe next time when I am in the area. This is a small touristy venue — the strip of down town eateries is limited so don’t forget to make reservations in advance so you can be one of the lucky ones to get a seat at the table of this very popular spot. Just don’t pop in as I did — because there will be no room at the inn that had clearly marked...
