I had lunch at Yuki the other day and walked out with a Yuck face. First off the cucumber salad didn't have the right dressing, making it tastless. The miso was very bland too. My bento combo with teriaki slamon and ginger beef was terrible. The tiny salad was the best thing about the bento. If a Japanese joint can't make rice right then they have serious problems, it wasn't sticky and a too hard. The beef was over cooked and totally tasteless, I didn't taste any ginger at all, just soy sauce. The tiny piece of salmon was over cooked as well, it was hard like plastic. Even the pork gyoza sucked! I have eaten at many Japanese places over the years, here and in Japan, and this meal was about the worst I can remember. A sleazy strip-mall bento joint would be better! Too bad the the food is yucky because the atmosphere is nice and the service good. You can bet that the Japanese wait staff doesn't eat there. You'd be much better off going a few blocks away to Sushi Land or Koji's. I'll say it once more, "Yucky!".
Pros: nice atmosphere and service
Cons: food is YUCKY!
