We went on a Friday at around noon. We were the only patrons and were quickly seated for 2. They have a wide selection on their menu. They also have a lunch menu on weekdays only.
We ordered the Pork Bun for our appetizer and the Pork Katsu Curry Don and Chicken Katsu Curry Don for our entrees. We also ordered the two roll combo from the lunch menu (California roll and Spicy Salmon roll) but did not receive miso soup or salad as advertised on the menu. We would’ve asked for the miso soup but we forgot it was included (first time at the restaurant) and the waitress did not mention it at all.
The lunch special rolls were nothing spectacular. I forget if there were 6 or 8 pieces per roll. In any case, they served as a good snack as we waited for our main dishes, but next time I would opt out of getting sushi.
The Pork Bun appetizer comes with two buns on one plate. I didn’t snap a picture of it, but it’s as you would expect: pork, some greens, and a drizzle of sauce within a white bun. I thought the meat was a little dry. Unless you’re really craving Pork Buns and have no alternative restaurant to buy them from, I would recommend skipping the Pork Buns as an appetizer.
The Katsu Curry Don only has one spice level and was very filling. You get to choose between chicken or pork. As there were two of us, we got one of each protein. The meat comes covered in the curry sauce. There is also some vegetables and potatoes that come with the dish. Overall, I liked the Pork Katsu Curry Don. I was craving curry rice and it satisfied my craving.
In terms of service, although we were seated almost immediately, we waited quite a while to have our order taken, to get our food, and then to also get the check. Our seats were right near the entrance/reception desk and in the view of the waitstaff and kitchen staff. However, to be fair, 3-4 other groups did trickle in by the time our food was served and there seemed to be only one waitress working.
Overall, I thought this was a nice casual spot to get Japanese cuisine. We liked our main entree and were not put off by the service. I would recommend giving this place a try for their entrees. If I were to come again, I think we would skip the appetizers and rolls and only order...
Read moreIt was my first time dining at this restaurant just me and my two sons which are younger. I explain to my server that I was new to the restaurant after a couple questions about the menu and what I was looking to order she suggested which one I should. I ordered assuming it was assorted sushi rolls and tuna rolls. When the entree came out it was not as she explained it. And it's not the type of sushi I like to eat. I explained there must have been a miscommunication and this is not what I want or like to eat. The server instantly got mad told me she can't take it back I have to eat it. Then I told her I do not like this type of food and I'm not going to pay $25 for something I will not eat she argued left the table came back took the entree away from me walked away said nothing came back two minutes later and said what you want to order now. Explain to her I will no longer be ordering I'll pay for what we've had so far that I do not like the way they treated me and my children it was embarrassing. She said forget it just leave. I will never spend my hard earned money in an establishment that treats their...
Read moreThis was my first experience dining in at Yuki. I came across this place searching for sushi restaurants on Google Maps and this placed seemed to meet our needs.
I probably will not come back to this establishment again. The place was ½ to ¾ full, so not even at full capacity. The turnaround time for anything was way too long, and the service was lackluster. We placed an order for 1 appetizer, 3 rolls, and two udons. It's not a lot of food, however it took 45 minutes for the appetizers to come out, and another 45 for 3 rolls and two udons to come out. All in all we were there for close to 2 hours, thinking we would be in and out in less than an hour.
It seemed as though this establishment was prioritizing mobile orders (uber, dash, etc) over their dine-in patrons, which was off-putting.
As for the food itself - the sushi pieces were VERY small. Probably the smallest pieces within a roll I have ever seen. The udon was really good though, so I will give them that. The bulgogi bun wasn't anything to...
