YO! Glasgow Central in Glasgow City

Tried the sushi class and it was good for n, learned and had food left over to take home. Staff were good and the teacher was supportive.

A bit expensive, not suitable for people eating gluten-free. Interior temperature 17°C

Very fun place to come and pick out your sushi off the conveyor belt! They also had a sushi making class going on too! Very fun date night!

We’re massive fans of sushi, but had never tried making it ourselves—until now. And honestly? The Yo! Sushi School in Glasgow totally blew us away. It was utterly fantastic from start to finish. We were so well fed during the class, and somehow still left with enough sushi to feed us for a week. The whole experience was hands-on, fun, and surprisingly educational without ever feeling too serious. Mario, who hosted the session, was an absolute gem. Friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does. He made everyone feel at ease and even let me try making a hand wrap (which wasn’t even part of the itinerary)—a small gesture that made the night feel even more special. Okay, maybe I’m a little biased because he complimented my sushi skills (always nice when someone feeds your ego and feeds you), but honestly, the whole evening was such a joy. Quirky, delicious, and loads of fun—highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique experience in Glasgow.

Very very mid, the salmon was almost frozen, had no flavour, expensive for what it is, full of rice

Never been to a Yo Sushi, so while on holiday we thought we’d give it a go. Very disappointed! Instructions about what/how to order were vague. Grabbed some “generation game” (conveyor) food, no idea what we were getting. Also ordered some hot food, beef teriyaki rice bowl, which came out nothing like it should have done. Zero pak choi but more raw chili than I’ve ever had anywhere. The beef was barely coated in sticky sauce. When the waitress eventually reappeared and asked how things were there was a genuine lack of concern. “I can speak to the chef if you want?” Later when we went to pay the same waitress said she couldn’t give us the he meal for free (which I hadn’t asked for) because I’d eaten it all, I clearly hadn’t eaten it when she first came round. No idea if this is a typical experience but won’t be going back any time soon. Photos are what it should have looked like vs what I got.

We got taught how to make sushi. The cook/tutor was patient and encouraging. Made it a good evening and my granddaughter and I enjoyed it.

It’s vastly overpriced. The service is not great. The food is okay. Pretty standard Yo! / private equity owned restaurant experience.

Slow slow slow Complicated confusing pricing No idea if price was right

Food for a grab and go lunch or quick dinner. The team were a bit unhelpful in explaining some things to our first timer group, and I didn't seem too keen on having guests on this particular evening, but one server made up for this by being twice as helpful and generally a cheery human.

Great food and very quick service

Brilliant service. Very accommodating

My boyfriend and I ordered food from here recently and had a terrible experience. When we showed up to collect the food we were ignored for at least 10 minutes waiting by the door. The restaurant was not busy and the staff were all talking in the corner. They did look over and notice us but never came to see if we needed help. When someone finally came over to help we were told they hadn’t made our order and that they cancelled it because they were out of what we had ordered. I’m not one to leave reviews but we never even got notified that it was cancelled and the man that told us it had been cancelled was also very rude. We also got no assistance in how to get our refund. We were both very disappointed as we like yo sushi, but after this we will not be back.

The food as always, was terrific, but the seating was a little uncomfortable for a large-ish person like myself. Nearly got stuck in one of the booths. Also there was no sign on the door, saying if they were open or not yet.

Far too few tables. Wait for ages to get seated and then even longer for food. Sushi mass produced so won't get order quickly if another person hasn't ordered it too. Plenty more authentic places in Glasgow with much better service.

Attended Sushi school with colleagues as a birthday treat .. Brilliant experience with lovely staff. Especially Sean our teacher Thank you

The worst food, overpriced not fresh. Shut the business OFF. Spicy ram tasted like dishwasher water. The calamari-like plastic was hard to chow.Sushi not fresh.

Good quality even though the rolls were smaller. Everything is becoming more expensive and people are trying to save money everywhere.

My husband and I went to the Sushi School where you are led through how to make various types of sushi rolls. Our chef Mario was very knowledgeable and it was a very fun and hands on experience. We ended up with LOADS and Mario kindly cut the rolls and packaged them up for us to take home. We would highly recommend it!!

The food is overpriced and not the best. And the service is terrible, the staff leave me for 25 minutes after I've eaten until one of them walks past so I can ask for the bill.

Good experience, but a lot of waiting on the "rail". We ended up ordering a la carte. The food is good, watch out for the "firecracker", fire.... very spicy. The noodles are good. Too expensive.

Had the veggie sushi school booked with a friend. Staff were very pleasant and host was very kind and patient. Great food in a nice relaxed atmosphere. I am going to bring my kids next time to learn .

good food, service quick, miso soup a little too salty but other than that great! quiet when i was there but usually busy. the playlist was good!

We had lunch here during a recently trip to Glasgow. The food was really good. Great and friendly service. We had to wait about 5 minutes for a table but that was no big deal. The sushi was very good as was the rice bowls (I had one with beef). Great atmosphere. We really enjoyed our visit and the wonderful food.

1st visit - Ama-zing! We will definitely call in again! Thank you.

We did the Sushi workshop, great experience. Mario the chef/teacher was great and we made several different kinds of sushi. Would recommend!

Went to the sushi masterclass - it was fantastic, learnt so much and got to take everything we made home! 10/10

Made an order and they cancelled it when I was outside the store to pick it up, money and time wasted, never again! Don’t try to order from here if you think your time is worth something

Great lesson on how to make sushi by Mario. Christmas present from my sister for my husband, daughter and myself

Store atmosphere is non existent, long wait for a Katsu curry, staff preoccupied at till. Not impressed with the foor or the service for the price. Dining area has 13 people with three cooks on, it wasn’t busy.

Regular visitors to Yo Sushi Braehead and service excellent. Visited the Glasgow restaurant and was extremely disappointed to say the least. The restaurant was fairly quiet yet we’re told we would need to wait 10 minutes to be seated. After 15 minutes we were told they were too busy to seat us and it would be another 30-40 minutes even though there were many available seats including the full bench area that we were told couldn’t be opened as there were only 2 members of staff serving. An absolute disgrace and wouldn’t go back. Staff looked happy to have no customers to serve.

Worst salmon sashimi I’ve ever had. Very disappointing experience.

Grubby little eatery in need of an in-depth clean, floor is slippery with grease, the whole place looks tired and in need of some love. Food isn’t bad but the grubby element puts one off!

Love the little food carousel with colored plates. The noodles we got were spot-on. Do not try that green paste in a little jar. It will ruin your tongue.

We have been going to Yo! for years, it has been our preferred choice for special occasions as we all loved the food. Recently the food has lost it's edge, rice cooked too long, menu items not available or favourites removed. On our last visit we found the food had become very salty, this is contrary to how the food is normally presented. A new menu item was cod prepared in a crispy batter, the batter had salt crystals through, every other bite would add a blast of raw salt to your pallet, not a pleasant experience. The batter also had 'whispy' tails, whilst this looks nice on the plate it does make for painful eating, the whisps were very hard indeed, so much so that one became lodged in my throat for a good 5 minutes. I do hope Yo! do well, although it's unlikely that we will go back anytime soon.

Started doing the dishes and not putting anything on the bottomless sushi belt 2 hours before close and the whole hour the selection was seaweed or cucumber - rip off

Lovely food and excellent service/atmosphere

Thanks to Mario for a great sushi making class tonight. We both really enjoyed it.

Half the dishes missing. Unmotivated staff. Empty conveyor belt. Where sushi goes to die 🤣

PUT THE HEATING!!! It has been the most uncomfortable dinner ! You need to put the heating, everyone had their coats on!! I am sorry but this is not normal! I did not enjoy the food because of this, we did mention it to the waitress who, of course, was wearing a nice and warm fleece but what about your clients!!!

Caution, they legally have to tell you about service charge but here they do not. Poor customer service and got ripped off. Trading standards will be contacted to investigate this store,

Found the food quality average compared to some other Japanese restaurants in Glasgow. The food quantity is also a bit less than what we were expecting.

Below average in my opinion. We got ramen. I had see food one but my problem was that i had few shrimps two pieces of squid and rest of it was salmon. Broth itself was a bit bland.I was expecting something more than that comparing to other really good places. In my opinion not worth of it's price. Portion was also quite small. We also took few of the conveyor belt plates and it was alright but quite pricey for what it offers. We have also ordered two sushi plates and that was way overpriced for quantity. My biggest turn off was service charge. Don't get me wrong I do tip if it's deserved. Problem was that I was bot informed about that and I found out about it when I asked for receipt. Man told me it standard. Even for standard from customer point of view it should be clear for me to know and to be informed what I'm paying for. As far as I know worker should be paid by company not by begged so called service charge. Not coming back to that place especially if there are few other much more authentic places in a few minutes distance from there that offers better food and has more authentic Asian climate.

The waiter did not inform us that the service charge was added to the receipt, he did not even ask if he could do it. I have nothing against it, but I would like to ask for it to be added myself and not be forced to do it. After our intervention, the gentleman removed it from the bill, but if I had not asked for the receipt, I would not have been aware of it.

We did the sushi school with Mario and I cannot recommend it enough! He was informative, fun, and helpful. It was also incredibly worth the price. We will be eating sushi for every meal for days! I’m excited to try my skills making sushi at home.

Mario was amazing during the sushi school! I can’t recommend this enough, he himself was 10000% worthy of the booking!!

the food was good but i think the prices were far too high. they also said get like 8 pieces of maki for 3.39 £ and then it felt cheap but they were outrageously small! it’s just better to serve bigger pieces and take more money for it. the girl who served us was very nice to us so that’s a plus! but not authentic at all sadly, which not is surprising considering it’s a restaurant chain. (which we didn’t know). i wouldn’t go back considering the high prices but if ur rich and just wanna eat some good sushi quickly then maybe this is the place for u :)

Great deals on a Monday (if its still in, 3 for 9.99). Combined with a set menu deal and you are saving a lot. Good food - not the absolute best but it certainly hits the spot.

Air conditioning too strong right above us. Expensive for what it was and frankly "skinny" sushi. A micro slice of cucumber in the makis... And there was no more salmon so some dishes were no longer available... Otherwise, the treadmill system is nice and the staff was great!

Not often in Glasgow but when I am I'll pop into YO! Sushi because it is an absolute scran If you're planning on going time it correctly I think every hour they put more food on the belt it goes very quickly Overall love it ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Completely overpriced and a rip off

I have no issue with the staff or the food here it’s fantastic and I always recommend it. My issue is with the Uber eats driver HASSAN who ignored my contact attempts and left my food at the wrong address. I had to then go over to try and retrieve it only to find out it wasn’t there either. This man spoke to me on the phone then started saying “no English and hung up on me”. I tried contacting Uber to sort it out as well but I just want to warn anyone else. If you want YO! Then go to them or order through another medium.

Disappointed with the Yo! Fries. Very small portion for just under £5 and slathered with mayonnaise, very unlike past orders a few years ago in taste and quality. Ended up in the bin and won't be returning.

Most mediocre sushi I have tasted...and that's truly disappointing ...all salmon love set tiny versions of actual sashimi, yo roll etc. Teeny slices of Sashimi has been thawed out under water...stale rice...poor quality Service very nice and pleasant !!

Excellent food with short waiting time

Awful. Restaurant was half empty. 2 members of staff more interested in talking to chef so waited 15 mins for table then finally got one there was no soy sauce or wasabi. Walked out and won’t be back to this up sushi

I enjoyed the vegetarian cucumber and avocado maki rolls and the chicken gyoza was great. My friend had the chicken katsu curry and he said he loved it too

Food seriously over priced for what it is,

I haven't been to a YO! Sushi for almost a decade and for what it is, it's quite expensive. We only had 6 dishes between us, none of which was the most expensive plate from the conveyor belt and only 1 of the second most expensive ones, the rest was the lower range of prices. Six small plates and 4 small beers came to over £60. All I could think was we could have had 4x delicious 12" stonebaked pizzas and 3-4 large craft beers across the street for the same price. Poor value for money, as the food is almost entirely just rice. But as sushi goes, it tastes good.

Yummy food and delightful chalice 💙

Much too expensive for what it is!!! 25 euros per person for a bowl of rice with chicken and 3 ravioli...

Decent food for the price. Too bad there isn't unlimited tea like in Japan... Friendly staff.

Upon our visit to yo! Glasgow, we were seated immediately by a server and asked if we had any allergies. We both worked for yo! and now own a yo! franchise so we know what to expect from a good restaurant. Looking into the kitchen, none of the chefs (apart from one girl with hair on her face) was wearing a hair net. Bandanas just around their head and one was even wearing a durag. We stayed for around 25 minutes and didn’t hear a hand timer. What I thought was the manager came downstairs and didn’t question it, so I’m assuming this is the norm for this restaurant. Looking at the belt, the quality of the rolls were generally bad- staff definitely need more training. But the most concerning thing of all, we picked off a Kaiso salad off the belt and saw it 100% had salmon juices on the bottom. There was no carrot in this dish or su-miso as there should be, so no orange liquid should’ve been present anyway. But carrot still wouldn’t make these marks on the dish. As you can see from the photo, it’s an oily orange colour like I have seen plenty of times from salmon yo dishes. This is an urgent allergen issue and I hope this is investigated fully. Very disappointing visit, especially as this is another bad representation of the Yo! Brand.

AVOID : They charge you prices higher than what you ordered , absolute scammers Portions are very small I ordered 4 different portions and wasn't full The waitress was very rude, often ignoring us and staring as if she wanted us to leave. She spoke in a loud, harsh tone and carelessly threw items on the table.

Cozy Japanese restaurant with moving belt for ready food the staff are friendly, food excellent and great service. The place is very clean

Went for the bottomless belt and thought it was a great deal! £29.95 for all you can eat off the belt, we definitely got our moneys worth. Our server was lovely but I would say that the roughly 20% service charge they automatically add on the bill was quite steep, especially since apart from water we were serving ourselves as we just took stuff off the belt. I will always tip in places and would never ask for a service charge to be removed unless it was terrible service but it did feel like a really high amount.

I was really surprised to see positive reviews on the food here. It was awful and overpriced. If you want excellent, fresh, authentic Japanese food do yourself a favour and go over the road to Katsu. It is very good!

We've been coming to this YO! Sushi for years and love it. Today we were in a rush (my fault) and our waitress Rachel was really nice in getting our food to us and giving us a free dessert after a slight delay. Many thanks we'll be back!

Overpriced and not worth the money. It does have the fancy interior, but the food itself comes in a small size for quite a bit of money, even though the taste doesn't justify the price. I also faced the unfriendly stuff that doesn't really look at clients or speak to them, which was unfriendly and unwelcoming. I wouldn't go there again.

Quick takeaway with kids. Ordered everything on the app and was ready in 10mins leven though restaurant was really busy (50min wait for table). Everyone loved the food. One drink was wrong but other than that very impressed.

I visited Yo! Glasgow last night (Sunday evening) for the Osaka menu after seeing an advert in the window while shopping earlier in the day. It was my final evening in the city, and I was looking forward to a special dining experience. Upon arrival, I was only given the standard food menu. When I enquired about the Osaka menu, the staff member initially responded curtly, saying there was no separate menu for the evening. Before I could finish clarifying my request, she interjected, stating that there is an evening menu, but it is not different. She then reluctantly brought me the Osaka menu. Despite the initial confusion and less-than-friendly service, the food was good and offered good value for money. However, the manner in which I was spoken to left me feeling disappointed. Had I known about the service beforehand, I would have chosen another Japanese restaurant in the area!

The service was really terrible. A memeber of Slstaff made me and my family feel like an annoyance as soon as we stepped in. The staff got the order wrong 3 times. And other times ignored me when I asked for attention. They told me I hadn't ordered an item even though they confirmed it with me. Quite upset as this was my son's birthday treat and he was very excited. Though a staff member did apologise for the mistake, overall a very disappointing experience.

Terrible lunch. Very rude staff, not just they ignore me while I was asking for drink, the waitress also shush me for trying to order and ignore me mid-sentence. Waitress prefer order her own food and chat with the chefs, ignoring the costumers (a table of two behind me left without ordering) the most terrible experience ever in a restaurant. Will never come back.

Staff don’t know how to open on time?? If your opening time is 11, I don’t mind a bit of a wait of course if the circumstances are right. However, standing 12 mins after you were meant to open is ridiculous. We saw 8 people come and attempt to get in while your doors were closed DURING YOUR OPENING TIMES ADVERTISED, and that’s not even including the two of us.

Second visit today, really enjoyed it last time we went. So disappointed today. Slow service, hardly a thing on the conveyor, the same 3 bowls just going round and round. Then it was topped up with a couple of sushi dishes and a bunch of prawn crackers... Preferred being able to order on the app, it was much quicker and you could order a few things at different times. Staff seemed like they could not be bothered and there were things missing from our ramen. Such a shame as we absolutely loved it the last time we went. Really don't think we will return.

I like coming to this place, it's one of the many Japanese restaurants I've went to in my life. I really like the food here. There was one issue with ordering but it got fixed quite quickly.

Amazing staff and delicious food! Can’t wait to go back.

AVOID!! The food is very poor quality and neither I, nor my partner could finish our meals. They put Siracha sauce on everything even though it was not explicitly stated on the menu. The salmon was not fresh, (clearly defrosted and had an off-putting soft/mushy texture. To the extent that we did not this it was a good idea to eat it. A complete waste of money, steer clear. Had we dined in the restaurant, I would have asked for my money back but we had a takeaway so did not have the chance to explain how terrible the food was directly. I do not normally leave bad reviews but I feel compelled to let other know so they can avoid the experience we just had.

Good sushi, great price for what you get. I was originally put off by the high prices but then found that they really put a bunch of fish in those expensive dishes. Never found myself pressured or even really encouraged to spend more than I wanted. The decor was lackluster but unneeded for my experience to be great

We sat at the bar table, taking pictures of the sushi and meals we ate, and took selfies after finishing our meals. Suddenly, one of the female chef with a pissed-off face demanded we apologize, apparently thinking we were taking pictures of them. She even told me that she had been observing us for a long while. After checking my iPhone photo gallery, she realized her mistake and left without apologizing for her false accusations. She then loudly discussed cultural differences with her colleagues. My friends and I were extremely annoyed by her rude attitude and the poor customer service, especially after spending over £70 there. As loyal customers of YO!, we don't think we deserve such treatment. On a positive note, the branch at Birmingham New Street has always been great. The staffs there are nice, without stereotypes, and provide excellent service. We've visited many times and always had a good experience. Shame on the Glasgow branch for letting us down.

I recently visited Yo Sushi and had an incredibly disappointing experience. The customer service was abysmal—staff were inattentive and unhelpful, making us feel like an inconvenience rather than valued customers. To make matters worse, the food was subpar. Anytime we tried ordering something especially popular dishes like chicken katsu they didn’t have it in stock?! We ordered four different chicken dishes and they had not one in stock especially on Father’s Day I thought it would have been fully stocked for the occasion!! The overall quality did not justify the high prices. I left feeling thoroughly dissatisfied and will not be returning. I would not recommend Yo Sushi to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience.

Always a great experience. Quite sad they removed the ordering online and the cool conveyer belt system they had in place during the pandemic. Food was wonderful as always and staff were great. £45 for the 2 of us. Katsu was delicious.

Again this was totally worthy The taste of ramen was really good, good potion, good plating and quality As every places has a different touch of finesse I loved it and on the go place if you crave for ramen and feel an authentic ambience

Definitely recommend if you've been craving endless sushi and none of the waiting.

Had good food here but the aircon was up so high we were all freezing and a warm day. Ordered food was prompt and tasty and the conveyor belt had great choice.

Food was OK. Quality of the Tuna Nigiri wasn't great. Staff were very helpful when they were around. Ordered unlimited green tea and miso soup but staff never came to check if we needed more.

I was in there a few days ago and was served by Rachael - she was super helpful and was more than happy to explain the menu to me because I struggled to find something I'd like, everything was delicious and the service was really fast, the conveyor belt is a very fun aspect of the experience. The only thing I can complain about is that it's small portions for a large price, but Rachael also let me know that there is a student discount which made a difference :) Overall great service, thank you!

Horrible service walked away several times whilst we where ordering. when It came time to pay turns out it was card only payed anyways except one person who couldn't pay so the waitress just stood there awkwardly and started treating the rest of us like we hadn't paid I made a point about why they couldn't phone the police as we had paid and instead of making a valid response she insulted me and said I was trying to act hard.

Slow service as staff were difficult to get attention from.

I had 24 THINGS because those cucumber mini rolls wererere soo good

Food was great! Concept is awesome. Service could have been better. Only two people were available to serve customers at the tables and the to-go customers. We had to wait and ask constantly to be served at the table. Too bad. But the good food makes it worth a visit.

Turned away as a walk-in due to lack of staff.

Very tired and without much atmosphere

Went today with my friend and we were over charged significantly, which unfortunately we did not realise until we left as we split the bill between us both. We had 3 plates off the menu and 6 from the conveyerbelt, but were charged for 12 off the belt. We had to ask for the bill twice and we think this is where the error occurred, the first server acknowledged out request for the bill, clicked some buttons on her tablet after looking at out coloured plates and left without saying anything. She did not come back to finalise the bill but instead went to tidy some dishes. The second server we asked got the bill after another wait, its worth noting the restaurant wasn't busy this was around 4pm. We ended up being charged £90 pounds in total, 45 each, for 9 smaller dishes and two drinks. When we realised after leaving we didn't feel we could go back as by that point the dishes would have been cleared so we couldn't prove what we had ordered. When we were paying, we asked to split the bill and were not told what the total would be or what our half would be, we were simply given the ipad on the contactless screen and since we had alrwsdy been waiting over 20 mins to pay since first asking we were already in a rush to meet our train. We only noticed after when checking the receipt we had been charged double the number of dishes from the belt. Word of advice, don't trust the servers to tally your orders correctly!

The crispy teriyaki beef is just that…… crispy and delicious!

Some reviews are a bit off putting - however my kids insisted on coming here. The food was ok - I agree the sushi is a bit bland - I prefer the Braehead Yo Sushi for actual sushi. The hot street food style choices were better. The service was fine. The ladies toilets were pretty grim. One had been vomited in the other was err .. dirty. The roll of toilet paper was on the floor. Plus the stairs to the toilets had something (food I'm hoping) trodden into them. Wouldn't personally choose to come back.

Good and quick service, nothing to complain

Food tasted wonderful but the restaurant wasn't as clean as it should be. We were originally given sauce covered menus but the waitress switched it out. The tables were covered in random sticky spots and the water glasses didn't look like they were cleaned. The waitress smelled like she hadn't showered in weeks either, ruined the mood. The kitchen seemed to be the only clean part of the restaurant

Came in for a takeaway and there was nothing in the fridge, asked if I could order to takeaway and was directed to the iPad/self service. Waited on my order for some time then asked if the order had definitely went through. Was told I was just supposed to take it from the fridge. I then said what I ordered isn’t in the fridge. I was then given what I had ordered from a huge pile of boxed sushi that had been sitting on a counter since I came in that wasn’t refrigerated. No idea how long all of those boxes had been sitting there and the box didn’t feel cold so personally didn’t feel safe eating it. disappointed.

Always like this branch, friendly and accommodating service, and consistently great food
