Yo Yo's Japanese Cuisine

FOOD:
I had come here on a Tuesday afternoon at around 12:30 pm for lunch. I had settled on Sushi Lunch A, which came with 6 pieces of sushi, and 6 pieces of California Roll, along with miso soup and a green salad ($13.95). I was impressed with how delicious the miso soup tasted; it was hot (temperature-wise), and appetizing, with just the perfect amount of onions and tofu. Also, it was a large amount, which kept me warm and toasty. In terms of the green salad, I wasn’t too keep on the lettuce as it looked to be red leaf lettuce, which didn’t really go well with the type of dressing. Also, the pieces were a bit too large, making it difficult to eat.

In terms of the sushi pieces, they looked appetizing however, when I had picked them up, they always broke. Either the fish part came off of the rice, or the rice broke in half; I’m not sure why this was always the case. Otherwise, the sushi pieces tasted good, and fresh, which was what I liked. In terms of the California Roll, the pieces of this roll were nicely shaped, and they were also quite large. I also liked how fresh they tasted, and were impressed at how aesthetically pleasing they looked as well. Overall, the food was pretty good, except for the green salad, which I wasn’t too keen on.

ATMOSPHERE:
When I had walked into this restaurant, I was impressed with how beautiful the decor was; from various cups and saucers, to dolls and wall ornaments, I enjoyed looking at the different Japanese pieces. I also liked the booths with the small cushions, which made it comfortable to sit on. The music was also pleasing, as it was classical music, which relaxed me during my meal. I noticed that the restaurant was divided into two sections, with one in the back being divided by a small door that was left open. There were also tables that were closed-off with a curtain which I found to be nice and private. The restaurant itself was also very clean and well-organized.

SERVICE:
Upon walking into the restaurant, I waited at the front where the sushi chef saw me standing. The server was busy taking an order therefore, the sushi chef told me to take a seat anywhere that I wished. After sitting down for a few moments, the server came over and handed me a menu. He was really nice, and even came to ask me how I was liking my meal as I was eating. He had a very kind demeanour, and it was easy to ask him questions; great service!

COST:
1 Sushi Lunch A ($13.95 + Tax) = $15.76

WOULD YOU RETURN?
If I am in the area again, I would most definitely give them a try as I enjoyed my visit for the most part.

First visit. Used Urbanspoon to find and was a good choice. Was not expecting to find this quality in this area so pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed a kaki fry appetizer and sashimi dinner and it satisfied. Service was slow but their friendliness and my company made up for that.  From the outside you may doubt the quality but the inside ambiance was quite nice. Would return. 75%

The best place in town.. Although there is another Sushi place in Georgetown now. This is the place to go if you want good food. I go to both. But if I want good sushi, I go here every time. They have always been good. I have been going there since it opened. I hope they will keep there business with the new place in town. It is very good I think because the size of the fish you get in ever order is a lot and in ratio with the rice it is perfect. You taste the difference when you go here. The all you can eat is like store bought sushi a little. Please keep going here. I've been to many sushi places in the area and downtown Toronto and the quality of the food here is top notch.

Amazing and delicious Japanese food. Went during lunch hours, fairly empty to dine in. Made a reservation regardless, on their website. After ordering, food was served to us pretty quickly, I would say within 10 - 15 mins. And all the dishes came out together. Quick service, decent pricing and tasty food. Would recommend.

YoYo sushi is hands down the best sushi I have ever had in the GTA and surrounding area. The quality is always top notch and consistency from visit to visit to always the exact same. Definitely a place I regularly and will continue to order from. Update: review still stands and remains unchanged, quality has never changed and time and time again we are blown away with the quality and taste, despite the price, it's worth it. Love yoyos.

The sushi is not the cheapest but you get what you pay for. The quality of the fish and size of the pieces were good.
