What People Are Saying About Yuki Japanese Restaurant

In Short – With picnic tables lining the sidewalk and wooden water wheels spinning away, Yuki fits right in on casual, bustling Broadway. Wooden screens create privacy between tables, while bar seats allow diners to watch the chef action up close. Sushi rolls are clever and creative, like the Mai Thai, a dynamite combo of shrimp, avocado, cilantro and lettuce; and Red Heat, spicy shrimp teamed with scallions, cucumber, crunchy masago and bits of tempura.

Sushi Lovers BEWARE
by AW1223 at Citysearch
I went to this resturaunt with some friends on a Wednesday night for Happy hour and when we got there we were treated as if we weren't welcome. The woman who seated us was completely rude and didn't even try to pretend to have a good attitude. It gets worse.....I found a worm inside my edamame shell....after already putting it in my mouth. This was the WORST experience ever and needless to say I couldn't eat another thing from this resturaunt but I still had to pay for the meal!!! Don't go---trust me
- Pros: nothing

Should be called Yucky-Sushi
by aleeka at Citysearch
I ate at Yuki Sushi on a Sunday. I know sushi on a Sunday? Bad idea.
My albacore nigiri tasted less than fresh. And that less than fresh cost me later. I totally got sick.
Maybe they're good on other nights, but man, stay away on Sunday. There's no weekend fish market, so all fish is from Friday... word to the wise.
- Pros: none
- Cons: tight seating, non inventive menu

Bad food, bad service!
by Kitty84 at Citysearch
I was here with a Japanese friend to try something new. The waitress didn't greet us and she didn't smile when she waited on us either. I understand that she doesn't like being a server, but don't take it out on the customers. I was impressed by their sushi roll menu, but when I tried it, it didn't amaze me at all. The sushi rice didn't have much vinegar, which it's suppose to. When I ordered Oyako donburi, it was terrible. They simply had rice, fried an egg and put teriyaki sauce over the chicken. It wasn't Oyako donburi at all. Where is the mirin in there! I will never come back here again. Any sushi restaurant that serves imitation crab, bad sushi rice, bad service and bad donburis is not worth it. Even my foreign Japanese friend thinks it's bad. Koji Osakaya is way better down the street. Check out the one in Gresham. That Koji's is one of the best! Saburo is not bad. One time order, but big rolls. Rice could be better. Still better than this place.
