Yunomi Handroll — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Came here for dinner on a Monday night and even at 7Pm it was full and had a lovely atmosphere. They had just gotten their liquor license and were ready to give us a phenomenal meal!

Quick, delicious and engaging. Highly recommend.

We had:

SHISHITO PEPPERS - Shishito peppers and soy sauce.​

These are straight up; served hot, perfectly cooked. Right amount of soy sauce. Fantastic.

ROCK SHRIMP TEMPURA​ - Rock Shrimp Tempura tossed in house Spicy Mayo seasoned with Shichimi Togarashi and finished with Chives.

HOW DID THEY GET THESE SO CRISPY. Damn. That was good.

SPICY ALBACORE ON CRISPY RICE W/TRUFFLE SOY SAUCE - Spicy Albacore on crispy rice drizzled with truffle soy sauce and topped with crunchy onion.

That truffle soy sauce tho. Amazing.

And the hand rolls came fast and delicious.

Everything was fine, and I thought I’d come back, UNTIL I WAS ASKED TO LEAVE because people were waiting in line—even though I was still in the middle of eating. It was a really unpleasant experience. Who asks a customer to leave while they're still eating?

When I checked the time, I’d been there for only 1 hour and 3 minutes. We waited about 20-30 minutes for the food, ordered a second round, and spent around 30 minutes actually eating. That’s pretty reasonable for a meal, nowhere near long enough to be kicked out. Lots of restaurants guarantee customers at least 90 minutes to enjoy their meal, so this was a real bummer. If you're looking to relax and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed or pressured to cut conversations short, this isn’t the right place. This was a birthday celebration with my friend and it got ruined. I don’t normally leave reviews, but I really had to...

I came here for lunch with a friend and have mixed feelings. I prefer the classic temaki (cone-shaped hand-roll) but I don't mind trying new things. However, these were really hard to eat without making a mess. It was more like a miniature uncut sushi roll, so when you picked it up the filling just fell out the other end. It tasted okay but nothing special, especially when you consider the price. We spent over $100 for both of us to eat and I left hungry.

The restaurant was nice looking but extremely loud and hard to hear my friend who was sitting right next to me. The service was okay but they missed something we ordered, probably because they couldn't hear us. I'm giving it 4/5 stars because I only tried it once and at least it didn't...
