In Short – The tiny dining room with bamboo-mat wallpaper, a dazzling aquarium and an antique fish kite has the feel of a Hawaiian surfer hangout. The sushi chefs are chatty and willing to point diners to the best offerings.Top-notch nigiri sushi and creative rolls are complemented by traditional Japanese fare and numerous small plates. Generous bento teriyaki boxes and comforting udon noodle soups are a good value.

best sushi in town, delightful place, yoko rocks!

by hamtom70

best. sushi, ever.

i go to yokos for the freshest best sushi in town, honestly i go for the BAT MAN ROLL! its sooo freaking good. seriously, a non-traditional combination- but so inspired and delicious...

i have been a loyal yoko's patron for the past 8 years, i've NEVER had a bad customer service experience. sure you have to wait, but they have like 10 tables, they cant help it, plus there is a bar across the street and next door...

Also where can you find high quality sushi, made fresh, by the business owner herself right in front of you... yoko is awesome, and adorable!

  • Pros: best sushi ever, atmosphere, vibe
  • Cons: ... they dont deliver..

!!!!Takas Tuna Oh my god!!!!!

by TetsuyaOno

Well besides the place being Slammed to the wall busy I thought the service was decent though the food was amazing. Their is no other sushi bar in this small little city that offers such creative food with a casual atmosphere, you can go anywhere for your traditional sushi but Yoko's stands alone. I my self have been a sushi chef for the last six years in the Portland area and this is where I go when I want Sashimi, Salmon,Hamachi and they always have the most fresh Tuna. Every sushi bar in town knows of Yokos trust me they are so busy. thats why they have the best fish. You have to try the Takas tuna and the Poki roll, Oh my God!! And they have the best Kara-age in town. Plus Yoko is so cute you will want to put her in your pocket and take her home. Its the sushi bar you HAVE to go to once at least...........

  • Pros: Their is a cool bar next store
  • Cons: No parking
