YO! Manchester Selfridges Trafford in Trafford

Jessie was lovely looking after us today and the same when I got a take away from her last week

Amazing food and amazing service as usual! Love this place. Anum was a fantastic server. Thank you

Anum was spectacular and great service

Excellent server, really pleased we can order with a human now and not expected to use a QR code!

Jess was a really helpful waitress!

Food was delicious, reasonabe price and te staff called Jessie was polite, friendly and accommodating.

The waitress (Jessie) was lovely, helpful, cheerful and a great sense of humour. The food was lovely (very fresh) and there were some nice new dishes to try too.

Jessie the waitress was lovely. Food was fab as always.

jessie was so lovely and helpful

Thanks Jessie! You were brilliant ❤️

Fabulous dinner to catch up with a friend. Jessie looked after us so well and was so attentive, had great knowledge when it came to dietary restrictions and made sure everything could be made to the needed requirements. Will definitely be back.

Jessie was super helpful and showed us about the discount for pancake day and how to sing up for Yo Love club!

A fantastic trip to Yo today. The staff are so attentive and friendly, special shout out to Anna who was so welcoming! Food was fantastic, especially the hot food which was fresh and tasty. Can’t wait to come back again!

Had a great experience at Trafford center yo sushi today. Jessie was exceptionally polite and welcoming. She treated my 6 year old daughter like a little adult and was really warm and engaging. Would definitely recommend.

Kids loved it had an amazing time, conveyor belt sushi tasted AMAZING, deals are great too, the deal for three plates for £12 is good we definitely got our moneys worth 😋😁🍣🍱

This is our favourite YO! Sushi. We love the atmosphere, the food is fresh, the kids enjoy it, and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Jack is wonderful. He taught the kids how to make their own chopsticks and sang our eldest a big Happy Birthday, on her birthday. Thank you! We’ll be back soon :)

Jess was amazing, she helped us learn about the bottomless Thursdays. She was so awesome and polite: Give her a raise!

Still on the theme of playing "Catch up". Christmas shopping at Trafford centre, Manchester is always a beautiful experience, I am always in awe of the architecture of this masterpiece! Now if you are an early shopper like me- that is you like to arrive earlier in time for shops opening to get a head start before the lunch crowd comes to join in the activity. Then we understand that once the clock strikes 12, it is time for the first food break and for that I 100% recommend a walk in/book in advance at YO!Sushi and Japanese food. I thoroughly enjoyed the conveyor belt experience, especially enjoyed the following dishes; Kaiso seaweed, Kimchi chicken, prawn crackers of course!, salmon dragon, yasai, mochi, and YO! fries of the belt which was 10/10 too, all paired with sake. The service was prompt- considering the rush, friendly faces all around and excellent all round service! I really appreciated the variety of dishes both on and off the conveyor belt. I look forward to another trip down to try more dishes off the belt. Also for students, discounts here are accepted! Satisfying sushi cravings, while being surrounded by families on the lookout for the perfect present all in anticipation for the smiles and laughter that comes from the art of gifting, is always a joy to witness.

The lady serving was so naturally lovely. Food was delicious and restaurant was clean

We took part in the Sushi making class here via DesignMyNight, It was a little unorganised to begin with and we were left waiting around 10 minutes longer than expected but once we were seated and introduced to our tutor, Josh, everything went great. Josh was a fantastic tutor and guided us well to making a variety of different Sushi types, its was a very informative experience but also kept light hearted and very fun, at the end of the night we were very happy with the Sushi we had created. I would highly recommend the Sushi making class from this location.

Seriously rude staff, I actually complained to the manager about our server who had a go at me and my friend for wanting to pay separately. He started by huffing and puffing and saying we should have said at the start if we wanted to pay separately as it ‘makes it harder for him’, bear in mind this man was our server the entire meal and didn’t ask us at the start? Nor did we think we had to state this, it’s just a normal thing! I said this and he snapped and did the payments. I then asked for a receipt, he sighed again & stormed off. He then literally slapped the receipt from the palm of his hand into the worktop in front of me and stormed off without saying a single word. Shocking service!

Jessie was very nice and helpful

Jessie and Dora were amazing, lovely servers, friendly, helpful and sweet. Jack the manager is great also. And we really like Nok, one of the chefs, she is also lovely, always cheerful and friendly. All of the staff there are very nice. Food is very nice. Service great, time of good delivery to the table is fast. Will definitely be going back again.

Really good service from Dan on Saturday, food really good as always but Dan was great

Jess was excellent, food was delicious.

Great service by Jessie. She was very friendly and attentive. Glad that ordering via the App has gone.

Really good food. Served by a lovely waitress Kianna.

Enjoyed a lovely evening here last night. Our server (didn’t catch her name) was absolutely lovely. She was super busy and it was hard to get her attention - felt like the place was under staffed. We really felt for her when she was so busy clearing tables, she accidentally spilt some food on another diner who was understandably annoyed, but spoke to her appallingly. He really belittled her, horrible man. It was really hard to watch. I hope she’s ok, and the company have not penalised her, she was visibly upset poor girl.

Good place to Yo! Exactly what you expect from Yo!, seated quickly, staff are friendly. Thank you Shannon :)

First time here and I loved the use of the conveyer belt. Service from Shannon was exemplary. Will be back again for sure

Great service, really quick. Shannon was awesome. Well fed and very full 😉

Love yo sushi, food is very nice when i go there in person but when i deliver i get hair in my food which is pretty weird but apart from that this place is good and the staff are ok.

Shannon, many thanks for your attentive service. The QR code link to the allergen table was a great help. Have a great Christmas.

Our server Shannon was extremely helpful

Shannon was a great server! We had an amazing time.

Shannon was amazing! Great service. Thankyou !

Amazing staff, food and place would recommend.

Jessie was really lovely and really added to the experience

Our waitress Shannon was really lovely. She was very friendly and helpful and patient with us.

Shannon's service was exceptional. She was polite and attentive. Made our experience very pleasant!

Shannon was great! Brilliant service, nothing was too much trouble

Shannon was very helpful and efficient

Amazing sushi, thank you to Maia for being so lovely and helpful!

Shannon served us today at lunch time she was extremely polite and a lovely girl :)

Shannon was great and very helpful

Food was fresh and food quality. Very enjoyable experience. Shannon was a lovely server, very kind and friendly. She made me feel welcome.

Shannon was fab, merry Christmas!

Had a great meal here today and Maia was very Hospitable and kind, always checking we had enough! Great service!

Great service by Maia, thank you!

Came here with my long time best friend and her parents and we wanted some sushi, we grabbed a lot of sushi and it was absolutely amazing. The chicken katsu curry was delicious and we also got some spicy ramen, the server was extremely nice and patient, I don’t have photos but trust me if you want some nice fresh sushi go here.

Amazing service as well as food! 😁

Jessie was fab! Thank you so much ☺️

We used to be regulars here, so much so we had a VIP discount card. In the last few years the place has become an unbearable disgrace. The staff used to be lovely, now they are miserable and disinterested, they will walk past you over and over without acknowledging you before they finally sigh and mutter at you to follow them to sit down at a poorly cleaned table (the last few times I've wiped it properly myself). If you can get past the shocking service and the shrunken portions the food is okay - except we haven't been able to actually eat there the last THREE times because they have had no vegetarian options (we are a fully vegetarian family)! I vowed I wouldn't go back after last time but our kids begged us. This time I was smart enough to ask whether they had pumpkin or not before being ignored in the queue for twenty minutes and realising we couldn't eat there anyway. Honestly it's filthy, poor service, small portions. Save yourself the disappointment and go elsewhere.

Gideon was an excellent waiter food was loveky

All Salmon love set is all Salmon disappointed set

Imagine paradise. Imagine it as a place on a map. In your mind, drop a pin there… then start walking. Walk away from it as far as you possibly can in the universe you’ve just created. Then drop another pin. That pin is as far away from perfect as you can get… that pin, if you will, is hell. Now, again imagine you tap that pin. Yes… you guessed it. That pin is Yo Sushi at the Trafford Center. Only worse… because going to hell at least has a sense of justice to it. You end up in hell because you did something. I ended up in Yo Sushi, the real incarnation of hell, because my kids wanted to go there. That seems like a harsh punishment. What makes it hell is that in no way does it live up to any of its promises. This is meant to be luxury, exotic, flavoursome… frankly Yo Sushi should have a licence from the FCA to arrange personal loans and mortgages to pay the bill. Their food is so expensive that it is perfectly reasonable to expect it to cure cancer, reverse male pattern baldness, or serve as the world heavyweight champion of aphrodisiacs… But instead, what you get is to wait in a long queue in a shop that’s too hot for it to be good for anyone - another way it is very much like hell. You are sat in grubby, dirty, dilapidated surroundings, and even though I came with small children, you are sat at a bar that in no way lends itself to supervising kids. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to summon waiting staff - I understood they did not use the app and had to be summoned. Only I assume they had to be summoned by telephone, by email, even perhaps by telepathy, because none were around to be summoned by more traditional means. Finally, when my seven year old had got sick of waiting, he went to find one, in a moment I found out about a split second too late, because he was next to me at a bar, not in front of me at a table. When the server was to be found, she knew about as much about the menu as I do about open heart surgery (read: I am not a cardio thoracic surgeon). Couldn’t guide me through the dishes, couldn’t tell me how the menu had changed, couldn’t suggest any alternatives. It was, almost exactly, like talking to a hand puppet. Only hand puppets are fun. This was like putting a knitting needle into my ear. So, with my kids having eaten four plates alone. Four small plates. With pennies worth of food on them, I got sick of the shoddy experience, baulked at the idea of having my pocket picked to be treated like.a simpleton and left. The cost for those four plates? A few pence shy of £18. So in short - I would not recommend this food venue to anyone - unless I bitterly hated them, because I’d caught them in bed with my wife, after driving my car, and having ingratiated themselves to my friends. Then and only then could I loathe someone enough to recommend eating at this establishment. For less dramatic occasions - give it a dramatic swerve. Your bank manager and your sensibilities will thank you. Yo Sushi solicited me to email them on Tripadvisor to resolve this. After asking me to send them the review again and then asking for proof of purchase, they decided not to refund me. WHAT WAS THE POINT OF WASTING MY TIME THEN? Absolute muppets. Basically the death knell for Yo Sushi. I hate the way they do business, I hate their ripoff prices, I hate how grubby and run down their places are, I hate how eating there makes me feel like a mug.

We visited Yo Sushi last Friday for date night, our first time back in a while, and we were excited to return to see if the experience still lived up to our memories. As always, the restaurant had its conveyor belt with a variety of sushi selections passing by, giving us the option to either order with the waitress or pick directly from the belt. We ended up doing both, eager to try some of our favourites and a few new items as well. We ordered eight pieces of the Dynamite Roll, filled with creamy avocado, cucumber, and carrot, topped with crispy onions and spicy salmon. We also picked out the Popcorn Shrimp, perfectly tempura-battered and drizzled with sweet shiro miso and chili sauce. From the belt, we grabbed four pieces of the Popcorn Prawn Roll, a refreshing blend of smashed avocado rolled in chives, topped with a spicy kimchi sauce and crispy popcorn prawn. The Yo Fries were a nice side, Japanese-style fries with sriracha mayo and sprinkled with sesame and aonori seaweed, and we rounded out our sushi with eight pieces of the Crunch California Roll, made with surimi and avocado, topped with mayo, teriyaki, and crunchy onion. For drinks, we kept it simple with a Mogu Mogu Mango and a Sprite Zero. While the sushi was enjoyable, we couldn’t understand why the prices had gone up so much since our last visit, especially since very little had changed apart from a few new items on the menu. In fact, some of the dishes were as expensive as what we’d expect from a fine dining restaurant in the city center, which felt excessive given the casual dining experience. Another disappointing aspect was the lack of cleanliness throughout the restaurant. The table and chairs felt grimy, the floor had visible crumbs, and the menus were so sticky that we didn’t want to touch them. It gave the impression that upkeep was not a priority. Overall, while the sushi itself was good, the high prices and cleanliness issues took away from the experience. It’s a fun place to pick and sample dishes, but the steep prices and lack of cleanliness make it difficult to fully recommend.

Took my son Wednesday night for the sushi making course they do. We went early to have our Tea which was awesome as usual. The sushi making started at 6.30pm and was run by Jack think he said he’s one of the managers. He was great fun made everyone welcome explained everything and had us all making sushi like pros. Thanks Jack me and my son really enjoyed your sushi making and would reccomend it to anyone.

Staff went above and beyond for my toddler who apparently now loves sushi!? Everything I had was really delicious. A great place to grab lunch whilst shopping.

Great experience I’m not a sushi fan but this was amazing

Excellent Yo Sushi. Service was very good and a 7.5% service fee is very reasonable

Honestly a good location and decent service. But sadly that's where the positives stop. As someone who has been to sushi belts in America and Japan this place is an insult to proper sushi belts. The prices are honestly absurd for the amount. Nothing is worth it. You'll spend way more here than you think for even one dish. Run as fast as you can. There is no reasonable reason for such expense. The kaarage isnt even proper kaarage. It's just simple breaded chicken you can buy at the super market

Anna at Yo! Sushi Trafford Centre was absolutely incredible, she went out of her way to deliver incredible customer service, ensuring my partner could get his favourite food at a difficult time for him. I would highly recommend anyone to attend this Yo! Sushi.

It's been a while since I visited a Yo! SUSHI 🍣🦐🦀🐟🥢... I have to say i enjoyed every bit of it today. It made a nice change after several days of meat and cheese over the Christmas period.. From the freshly prepared sashimi to their grilled teriyaki kebabs, there was simply too much to choose from. Loved the spicey tuna egg rolls 😋 had a firefly kick!!.. Can honneslty say was completely stuffed by the time I left!!.. over all had about 12 dishes ( diffent colour plates ) plus a couple of drinks, and the price wasn't too bad at the end. £60.59. Felt it was about right for the amount food we had eaten!! Plus, they also accept Blue light cards, so got a cheeky 20% off the overall bill.. score saved about £13 .. 👌 Deffenlty will be returning soon to get our sushi 🍣 fix again!!

Service could be better. Some staff are awesome but I have found staff at the front of house are a little rude and dismissive. Food was good but not a lot of new dishes are appealing

The waitress here was really lovely she helped my very shy teenager daughter and her friend who weren’t sure how to order a drink, so when I asked her if she could help she grinned and said no problem. Thank you so much

Delicious food and the staff couldn’t do enough! Will be back for sure!

What a let down. Been numerous times and order via app is such a good feature. This visit all table numbers removed, no app push for hot purchases, serving staff not interested and more interested in chatting with each other than taking orders. 0/10 won’t be back here again for sure.

Not the greatest of experiences Katsu curry was rubbish very watery and hard rice ended up leaving most of it. Popcorn shrimp dish was literally sweepings / plate of crumbs and charged £8.75 for it. Staff difficult to get attention as they were messing about with a Selfridges bag / still charged the service charge.

A good Sushi restaurant, well organized, good price, all delicious.

Staff were polite but very young and not at all proactive. Also we were told that everything, including shellfish were being cooked in the same fryer as one was broken, therefore as I have a shellfish allergy my options were very limited. When we came to pay the bill we weren’t offered a receipt and when I questioned this as it was approx £20 more than I had expected, the waitress reluctantly brought over the receipt and we’d been charged for items we hadn’t ordered. Overall a little disappointing.

Disappointed with our first visit to the Yo! Our waiter was so miserable and it ruined the experience.

I couldn't find the hygiene rating Displayed anywhere but I could tell from place that ain't clean at all. The bottle they are using for top water is disgusting I am sure they can change there bottles probably with £100 after using many years to avoid ending up here. Not recommended👎👎

Hot food stops 90 mins before closing. Only the food on the belt left - don’t make a wasted trip if within a couple of hours of closing.

Terrible. I came for my birthday hoping it was good but the food was terrible the plates where dirty and volcanic wings o regret coming here and if you think about coming here think again.

Always very busy, quick service, attentive staff. Order via the app. Not much booth seating but lots of seating alongside the sushi belt. Prepare to queue for the Yo! In Trafford center , for at least 10 minutes Can be a bit cramped sitting alongside the belt, so if possible ask to sit in a booth.

Food was ok, however staff who was making food was also delivering it and from hygienic point of view that's not too good as they would wear the gloves when they were making food then would touch all the things around them (fridges, chairs etc.) while still wearing those gloves. And there was that disturbing smell of dump and dirty cloth where we were sitting. I'm not quite sure where this was coming from but it was bad.

Not worth going at all. Had 3 main dishes and 3 from the conveyor belt. That cost 45 pounds with 11 percent discount! Food was below average. Didn't like how the staff just took 10 plates off the belt and just chucked them in the bin. I understand they don't want to risk selling bad food but I could've literally decided to take one just before he threw it away. No care at all and it was sad to see.

Ordered two of the Korean fried chicken bowls- only asked for no chillies (we both can't handle spice very well) and one with no radishes. Both dishes came with chillies and radishes, were so hot we couldn't eat much and had to give it to our friend. We barely ate anything and had to get food later. The waiter had told us the changes would be possible and had spoken to the kitchen staff so we dont really know why the changes were then ignored?

Not a patch on the old yo sushi. Atmosphere not as good, belt selection poor. More importantly service is slow. Had to chase two dishes that did not show up.

Shockingly dirty and careless in food preparation

Disinterested staff, ignored in the queue, average food. Awkward moment where chef leans over the sushi train to pass you your hot food rather than bringing it to your table. Not great.

Salad had expired that day, but still being circulated despite us raising to staff

I used to love coming to yo sushi but the new set up is not the best and the prices are just crazy, it's such a shame because the food is actually nice

The food was mediocre but the service was horrible. Took 20 mins and us asking 2 different employees for our drinks we ordered via the app. All the staff seem miserable.

This is Disappointing use to be a great fun meal now the staff are miserable & food is no longer good shame really

Wow - what a difference - tiny / skinny portions of sashimi and squid - something has changed massively for the worse here - we aren’t even trusted to serve ourselves water / wasabi and ginger!! A very poor cousin of what Yo Sushi used to be - avoid 😫

By far the worst sushi experience I have EVER had. 1) the simplest of all miso soups taste bland and watery 2) there 13.50 pound seafood ramen is made with egg noodles and not ramen. THIS IS A SIN!!! 3) sushi and sashimi portions purposely cut too thin and tiny, i have never seen such cheapskate cost saving methods 4) all seafood served here are not fresh, I wouldn't be surprised If I get food poisoning from this. EDIT: my wife did get food poisoning from this. 5) everything is overpriced for what you get. 6) sushi appears on the belt as broken most of the time. Never will I come here again. Save your money and go to wazasushi or shoryu, much nicer sushi and professionalism and respect towards Japanese cuisine. EDIT: reached out to yo sushi as per there response. Don't bother, they aren't helpful. Just the typical carried out investigation and nothing found. After many tests and nhs/private appointments, results show there was inflammation in several areas that arose from bacterial infection. The timelines matched up but difficult to prove as a result, and from yo sushi's response, you'll need something concrete for them to accept responsibility. All in all, you can decide what you want to do with your life but I wouldn't risk my health going there again.

Absolutely deserves a big ZERO. Shocking prices for the amount of food that you get. Can easily spend £40 on the conveyer belt in about 4 dishes which, for the portion size, is ridiculous! Asked the server how I can differentiate between halal and non halal food, well she basically didn't know the dishes herself as she proceeded to pick up examples off the conveyer to explain how to identify things off the paper menu and then she would say 'o erm actually I don't know what this is too'. Not exaclty giving me the confidence boost here. A clear systematic coloured plate system would work much better so customers can easily identify their requirements. Anyway, we did try it as we had 3 very excited girls with us who wanted to try the sushi experience etc. We ordered some noodles which for £9 odd was a ridiculous portion, absolutely disgusting, literally seved on a teacup seving plate essentially. We did however get the bento boxes for free as it was during these school holidays but I seriously would have been super displeased had they charged me for what was served in the bento box (I can tell you it is not as advertised in their fancy advertisements). Anyway, can not really complain about that because it was for free so grateful for what we got as we could have easily spent over £150 to feed us all properly (2 adults, 3 kids). One thing to mention is kids across us where switching the vegan cocktail sticks over to other plates on the conveyer belt, potentially causing a dangerous situation for someone. We did tell the staff however they did nothing. Overall, I would absolutely never visit a Yo shushi restaurant again.

I came with friends to the Sushi School and it was so good! We had a lovely chef show us how they cut the fish and step by step instructions for making 5 different types of sushi (2x hosomaki, uramaki, temaki and nigiri). It was loads of fun and we got to eat our sushi or take it home after and there was plenty of it. Free drinks too. Highly recommend!

There’s always a long queue here so we’ve only ever got takeaway before which has been nice. It wasn’t that great - the quality is pretty average and the price really isn’t far off what you’d pay in Australasia in Manchester for a similar portion. Its a long time since I’ve been to a Yo but there’s a lot of stuff they used to offer that’s gone away - water taps at the counter, complimentary ginger and wasabi, it was all a bit underwhelming really.

Well since we had an hour and a half to spare before my childs play session at play factore we thought we'd go to yo sushi the queue was massive it was boiling hot in there we contemplated leaving the queue several times but this was meant to be part of her birthday treat. We kept seeing several empty seats but they were not getting filled and the queue was not moving it was a form of torture really by the time we got to the front of the queue it was time for the 2 hour play session to start and i hoped we would finally get seated soon so we could make it to the play session before it finishes. But it was still another 15-20 mins before we were seated in chairs that look like theyve seen better days. Once there it was great. I mean it was slow service if you ordered food and drink and no one explained the system to me i had to ask if the '20' sticker on the dome on top of the dish means its 20 quid and they finally explained no the pricing is colour coded accorded to the dish and handed me a menu which i hadnt been given before. I have anxiety it makes me anxious to not know the prices of things until its time to pay and would have preferred to pay upfront but as this wasnt possible i had to use my calculator on my phone to monitor how much it all was and to tell my child to limit herself. Then they added a service charge to the end anyway. What service? They werent seating people in time or explaining the system definitely acted like i was bugging them by asking questions all the time- at the end i literally asked 3 different employees how im meant to pay and they walked right past me without acknowledging me like i never said anything and we ended up being late to the play session due to slow service but its not a low rating because the actual food was good and id recommend. I played it safe with prawn crackers miso soup and mochi and really enjoyed it. Really like the moving conveyors. If i had been seated quickly and explained the system and it wasnt so hot it probably would have been a 5 star review from me. Also wish they had drinks like ramune my child gets it from the yo section at tesco so i assumed theyd have them in the restaurant too but they dont?

Thank you to Scott and klaudia for a really great sushi making class. Would recommend

My daughter is gluten intolerant but really wanted to try Yo! sushi. I wasn’t holding out much hope but she found things she could eat on the menu & we both really enjoyed it. We’ll definitely be back.

Long queue but it goes... Nice that the kitchen is open and you can see... salmon without taste prices a bit high for the portion very tiny..

Slow staff. In fact no staff!! Step it up guys

Love how they still use the conveyor belt at this Yo Sushi, makes it more fun 😊

Went me and my husband, the Tuna nigiri and roll didnt have any taste at all 😅 the salmon sushi was fine but not soemthing wow. We were very disappointed about the quality of the food.

Slightly disappointed with tonight’s meal

Really enjoyable experience. Me and my daughter went for the first time. You can order from the menu and then you pick what you want from the conveyor system. Everything is colour coded as to how much it costs. Be warned it can get expensive as the food goes round and you want to try it. Will definitely go again.
