The place was great. We went on Sunday and hour before closing. We have a lovely large pumpkin katsu curry, yo fries and avocado sushi.

Very Misleading , Says unlimited sushi but in the smallest writing possible ( font size 2) says only particular day. Could easily put a clearer message out saying Thursday unlimited sushi offer but clearly they catch enough people out to profit off. Why put it on the belt if it’s for another day Told a member of staff they just shrugged their shoulders to be like oh well …

Overpriced but the kids love the experience It's extremely dirty. Don't go toilet! Looks like a public toilet in a bus station No napkins No cutlery No water No soy sauce You need to ask for everything I mean....of course I won't go back :) 2 kids and 1 adult was £150 We didn't have too much to be fair

Ordered from UberEats, the portion for the fish was very small and you can't even taste the salmon/tuna in the rolls. The rolls were also cut very thin. The sushi also had a horrible fish to rice ratio, it's a brick of rice and a thin slice of fish. The salmon also looked par cooked on one side. The rice itself doesn't taste like sushi rice and is mid. And the fish itself is low quality. Not sure how it is in person but ordering delivery was a very poor experience. For the price, wasn't worth it at all.

Nice place, funny the conveyor belt with the cold dishes, which circulate continuously! If you have children they will have a lot of fun. The food is good, I would have preferred a more generous size of the sushi....but it's fine anyway. The poke choices are very good and plentiful. We'll be back but it's very busy at weekends! Online prices.

Me and my family attended this restaurant on a Thursday as they provide all you can eat sushi. Myself and another ordered a katsu curry while the other two ordered the unlimited. They told us they couldn’t serve us the unlimited as every member of the table would have to order it! The two of us don’t like sushi so why would we order it?! The two of us were refused service and had to elsewhere to eat while the other two stayed so they could eat their unlimited sushi.

A lovely friendly atmosphere and great and attentive staff. It's not the best sushi in the world but the fun of the conveyor belt and seeing the chefs at work makes up for it. Our waiter was really helpful and attentive, and even gave us a great recommendation for a mini golf place further down the road.

Came here for my partner’s birthday and we were served by a really lovely young guy. He asked us what we had planned for our day and when we told him about the occasion, he kindly offered to give us a free dessert. He was really nice to us and went out of his way to make it feel special - it was greatly appreciated. His name was “Icey” (apologies if that is the wrong spelling!)

Probably the worst place i ever eaten at. The service was horrible, it took to long for me to get a seat and it took to long for me to order. And the guy that was serving us forgot our drinks so we had food before our drinks. And i got burned by the food . What i ordered had hot peppers but it wasn’t visible so when i took a bite my whole mouth felt like its on fire 1/10 would not recommend to anyone

Young man who was leading the shift was quite racist. He made us wait outside in the cold & rain. A kind Oriental staff let us in. The Caucasian team leader kept giving the seats to others behind us. Selection of shushi was bismal. Quality of Tuna & Salmon was very poor. Prices per dish was over the top. A place to miss specially after the tummy upset we all got.

A typical YO! Sushi. The food is great, you can get better sushi but you will probably pay more for it. You can get cheaper sushi, but it probably won't be as good. The belt is a little bit of a gimmick. Personally recommend a hot dish per a person, with one or two sushi plates each as a starter.

Good evening fellow Google reviewers, I had the pleasure of being served by the attentive Tom who catered to my every requirement. The salmon sashimi created a feeling of satisfaction and fulfilment. I could feel the salt water freshness I genuinely thought I had just came out of the Pacific Ocean. If you are ever craving some fishy freshness, better yet if that is not your style and you need some kicking katsu this is the spot. It has been a pleasure to share this review space with you all 🥰

Lovely place and I wanted to visit this place from long time ago but weekends were always busy so I went over a weekday and it was less crowded and I could peacefully enjoy my meal. Sushi options are great and you pick up from the belt as much as you like , they bill at the end depending on colour of your plate. Wonderful selections of hot food like katsu curry, poke bowl etc and cold food. They serve unlimited miso soup. I loved their collection of sushi and they’re made fresh.

I love Yo! But this has and always will be the worst location I’ve ever been to. The food is consistently a lesser quality than of other locations. The kitchen always looks a mess and seems unsanitary. But above all the service was absolutely terrible. Two of us walked in and were told to sit wherever by the server waving her hand around. She sat us and informed us of the new table service system and said she’d be back to take our order. She did not return for ages and had to be called back for our order as she sat other tables and messed around with kitchen staff. Our server was a young Asian woman who I have not seen before on evening of 6/3. Took our order and asked for some forks. We received all of our food before I got my forks, drinks or miso soup. She informed us that the kitchen would be closing soon and to order anything else we wanted to quickly and then went onto ignore us for twenty minutes. Instead of bringing our drinks she busied herself sweeping and chatting with the kitchen staff, made eye contact with us several times and ignored us. Finally managed to order the last dish we wanted before the kitchen closed but absolutely shocking service, I’ve never experienced anything so bad. I will never come back to this location purely because of this.

I asked if it was made fresh or taken from the prepacked refrigerated section. The employee said fresh, and pointed to the chefs in the center of the conveyor belt. Then, we placed the order and he started taking things out of the refrigerated section. I asked him why he lied to me and he tried acting like we didn't tell me it was made fresh and sneered at me. I used to eat here all the time. No more now.

My recent dining experience at YoSushi was an unforgettable journey into the heart of Japanese cuisine, meriting a glowing five-star review. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, I was transported into a world where the essence of Japan is celebrated through an incredible array of sushi and other traditional dishes, all of which were crafted to perfection. The highlight of my visit was, without a doubt, the sushi. Each piece was a work of art, showcasing the skill and precision of the sushi chefs. The fish was fresh, the rice was perfectly seasoned and the presentation was impeccable. The variety on offer was impressive, ranging from the classic salmon nigiri to more innovative creations that tantalized the taste buds with their unique flavor combinations. What set YoSushi apart was not just the quality of the food but the authenticity of the dining experience. The service at YoSushi was also noteworthy. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering recommendations that enhanced our meal. Their passion for Japanese cuisine and dedication to providing an excellent dining experience was evident throughout our visit. In conclusion, YoSushi offers an amazing taste of Japan through its great sushi and authentic dining experience. It’s a place where the flavors of Japan are brought to life with skill, creativity, and care. For anyone looking to enjoy high-quality sushi in a delightful setting, YoSushi is a must-visit. My experience was thoroughly enjoyable, and I am already looking forward to my next visit.

Went here with a friend to eat out. We did go when it was quieter so there weren't that many people in the restaurant. Got seated right away and explained how to order in no time flat. It had been a while since I went out to eat at a YO! Sushi place, but I think I can safely say my experience was pleasant. Food overall was good. Ordered my personal favourite dish, the Chicken Katsu Curry. Food service was fast, I didn't have to wait any longer than 5 minutes after ordering. My main complaint would be the drink sizes since they felt a little smaller than the last time I was at a YO! Sushi restaurant. Overall though a good meal and good experience.

Do NOT waste your time in here, this place was horrible not only was it expensive but the customer service was absolutely atrocious. I'm deeply disappointed. And I can't also forget how when I wanted to ask the staff for something they ignored me, and I know that you may be thinking that I was just being quite or I wasn't speaking loud enough but that is NOT the case as I was sitting right next to them, I was right under their noses. And don't even get me started on the service, it took them a whole 30 minutes for our order to arrive, we were starving, hungry waiting for the food to arrive and the Food was not even good!So I highly recommend for everyone to stay far far away from this place, trust me its not worth any of your money or time. So I hope everyone has a lovely day and a happy new year❤

Went there to have lunch with my family and what a horrible service. My daughter ramen took forever to came and when it came, was wrong. Then another 20 minutes waiting for her food while everyone had their own food at the table. Ordered a miso soup which is suppose to be “unlimited” it’s only “unlimited if the waiter is patient enough to bring it to you, otherwise you have only one pot during your lunch. Overall horrible service and won’t came back, they might not care losing one costumer but I was a regular as my kids love sushi.

Great variety and quality of food! All kitchen and waiting staff amazing service from welcoming us to leaving the restaurant. Unfortunately the layout of the restaurant for people waiting to be seated is diabolical. A family of 4 ( 2 adults 2 girls (10-12) were waiting to be seated and were staring at my wife the entire time, and even had the audacity to say to each other “she’s taking the piss” about my wife ordering more food and drinks for our little boy. This completely ruin the experience as we were there for our son’s pre birthday lunch. This happened on 09.12.2023 around 17:30. We love the place, but now not sure if worth going back to :/

LOVELY FOOD! Me and my family love coming to Yo Sushi so we went here on a Saturday around 1pm, When we hit rush hour which was partly our fault, But we ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Ramen and the Chicken Katsu Curry, The waiter said they were out of stock but checked for us regardless and it was in stock after all! Both of our meals came out minutes after each other so we enjoyed a Family meal. We liked the food so much we ate it before we could start taking photos!

absolutely shocking customer service. staff seemed more interested in talking amongst themselves and sitting down than helping customers. Not sure why - wasn’t overly busy or understaffed. It took nearly 30 minutes to get anyone to take my order INCLUDING A DRINK. another 30 minutes = only one item showed up so i left. people were seated around me, orders taken, food arrived and they departed - felt invisible. when I left they still hadn’t started making the 2nd item I ordered 30 MINUTES after I ordered it, ONE HOUR after I arrived.

Sat down to eat, but due to a mix up and needing to get to our film we had to leave without ordering. I had to go back twice to get things id left by mistake, in and out quickly. When I went back some people working there made passive aggressive comments, and spoke about me and my friend like we weren't in the room. I'm sure it was annoying we had to go back without ordering, but if they had an issue they could have raised it verbally or asked why we needed to enter again. Instead they behaved rudely and maturely. The people who were preparing the food had nothing to do with this and seemed to be working very hard.

Usually my favourite sushi place , it was busy on the day I visited and there was a sign saying they were short staffed. However after waiting at least five minutes and not being acknowledged, I looked at all the tables and none of them had food . Normally the service is very efficient and quick, as well as the food being excellent. On this occasion as I had very little time to spare I decided that I would not wait, very unusual for me as I had gone out of my way to visit this restaurant. Not a very satisfying experience

Came here excited, as the reviews on here and other sites have been really good. Perhaps my hopes were set too high. Firstly the ambiance is on the lively side, I get it, it’s a Friday night but the generic cut and paste house music being blasted out at 7pm is not acceptable. Weirdly the volume kept getting turned down and then turned back up, like the staff were responding to different customers demands. A couple next to me left because to was too loud. The food and drink is overpriced sadly. I know this is supposed to be a fancy option in Watford but rates for cocktails (solid at best) and wine were not reflected in the quality of the beverage. I had the bavette steak with house fries. No steak knife offered which is essential for the bavette style. Needed a steak knife. It was not a great piece of meat and paying £26 for the larger portion felt a stretch. Small portion of fries too. However the chimichurri was a highlight. Then a small dessert followed by a coffee. In total it came to £71 which just felt insane considering that I was still hungry and the meat had been mediocre. Normally the food snob in would avoid a place that does grill, sushi and tapas. It can’t do all 3 well and this place is very much fur coat sans knickers.
