I love Yoshi's and I go there several times a year! However, last night I noticed a few things that I'm going to share in this review in hopes that what I perceived as a small decline In the overall Yoshi's experience will be corrected.

First off, the food is always excellent and the wait staff is attentive without being intrusive. A small, but important detail last night was that it seemed to be impossible to get serving spoons for items that were delivered family style, to be shared amongst the diners.

We also accumulated a large number of dirty dishes on our table and had to ask for them to be removed by grabbing one of the best people as he went by.

These are small details, but Yoshi's is really an upscale restaurant and should be paying attention.

The other thing that was really egregious, was the state of the women's bathroom: The toilets were disgusting - there's really no other word for it. They either aren't flushing properly or people are filling them up and not making sure they get flushed before they leave the stall. There was also used toilet paper on the floor and not just a little bit. There are three sinks, and the middle one wasn't working. The counter was a swamp of water, making it difficult to wash one's hands without getting wet across the front of their clothing - this is not new issue at Yoshi's either. I used the restroom twice and it was in this condition both times. On both occasions, I had to choose a different stall after looking into the first one. Even the second ones had used toilet paper on the floor. It's a stomach churner and really what precipitated this review. The worst of COVID is over, the restaurant was not super crowded on a Sunday night, there really was no excuse for the less than wait service or nor the deplorable condition of the bathroom - both were related to the same thing: a lack of attention to the details. Again, it won't keep me from returning, I love the food and I love the shows, but these were significant detractions from experience and dropped the stars to three.
