    Yaba Sushi is in the center spot of the 106 Cambridge Building. I SO Hope that this building gets filled again. I was lured in by the Grand Opening Decor. They have sushi, maki, terikyaki, Udon. I ordered an avocado and cucumber sushi to go. They have super cute to go boxes. Great presentation. Enjoyed the food, and the fact that it came out quickly. Will report back when I've had a chance to enjoy more dishes - but so far off to a great start!

    This was genuinely the best sushi I've ever had. The fish was super fresh!! The salmon especially was SO DELICIOUS and the California roll had real crab meat instead of imitation. I ordered it to-go and it was ready super fast.

    Sashimi appetizer

    Ordered Yaba takeout from DoorDash. The fish was very fresh and packaged beautifully. I ordered the caterpillar maki, sashimi appetizer, and hamachi kama/collar. The sashimi appetizer came with seven thick pieces of fish which was very generous given it was only $16. The caterpillar maki was also very large. The hamachi collar was slightly overcooked but nonetheless delicious. Overall, a solid takeout place if you're looking for affordable, good quality fish.

    I was looking for some sushi and stumbled upon this place. It's setup for takeout with a high table with a few seats. Don't let the inside fool you, the sushi is amazing. I ordered the maki flight and it was some of the best sushi I have had. They were not stingy with fish and gave such big pieces. The fish tasted so fresh and soft. Would recommend if you're looking for a quick tasty bite to eat

    This is a new place and you have to give this place a try!! After speaking w the owner, they buy their fish from the suppliers that have the fish flown in twice a week from Japan... everything is so fresh!!!!! And they have Waygu!!!! Its a great take out spot and love love the presentation!! Run, u wont regret!

    Soo good! So happy to have a new spot in the neighborhood. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend the teriyaki chicken with fried rice, steamed chicken gyoza, fried spring rolls and the many delicious and beautiful sushi roll options! Generous portions as well!

    Ordered a few rolls and a flight for dinner - everything was so delicious and fresh! I can't believe the high qualify for the low price, truly a hidden gem

    Best sushi I've had in Boston. Everything was so fresh, the spicy yellowtail was my favorite. Exceptional service, and the presentation was the best I've seen (see picture). Yaba is truly a diamond in the rough. 10/10

    This sushi & sashimi is INCREDIBLY beautiful. As far as I'm concerned it's potentially the BEST in Boston.

    Some of the best sushi/maki I've had over the last 30 years!! The access to their space is confusing but worth the effort.

We went through 18 courses of the freshest, highest-quality fish. Chef Wei's precision is amazing to watch, and the progression of the meal was perfectly paced. He is truly an artist! If you have allergies, they are exceptionally accommodating. I have a crab allergy, and they didn't just skip the course, instead they prepared a thoughtful, high-end substitution so I never felt like I was missing out on the full experience. While it is a splurge, Chef Wei ensures you get your money's worth through the quality of the ingredients and the flawless service. An absolute 10/10 for a special occasion!

I was guided to my party right away, offered warm or cold water, and immediately felt welcomed -- the kind of service that lets you settle in and enjoy your evening. Our server was gracious throughout the meal -- answering questions, checking in at just the right moments, and making sure we had everything we needed. Now let's talk food -- because Zaku lets you choose your own experience. If you want to keep it simple, grab some sushi. If you want to take it up a notch, go for sushi and combo plates. If you're in the mood for something hearty, the entrée options deliver. They also offer wine, beer, and other spirits, so you really get to decide how you want to take flight. We ordered a variety: orange chicken with rice, a combo platter filled with everything from edamame to octopus, and I enjoyed shrimp tempura maki with bibimbap (they kindly removed the beef for me), plus miso soup and a Sprite. Everything was flavorful and beautifully presented. The space is cozy yet lively, giving you room to relax and enjoy your meal. The menu is robust -- so many choices my guests had trouble deciding! Zaku gave great food, great service, and a great experience. I'll absolutely be back.

    Came to Boston for a work trip and really wanted to eat something light and healthier. I loved it…read moreso much I came back twice! I came during lunchtime on a Monday. It was adequately busy but still had seats open. The lunch menu is very affordable! If you can, I'd highly recommend going for lunch instead of dinner. Service was really quick! Received my meal in like 5-7 mins after ordering. Fish was super fresh and I really liked the different textures in the Hoseki Don. I also added in negitoro. They gave me a big clump of it! The second time I went back, I ordered take out so I could eat it at the airport for dinner. I ordered the Sake Maguro Hamachi don, added ikura and negitoro. Again, so impressed with the quality of the fish and the size of it. They didn't skimp out and really enjoyed the thickness of the sashimi despite it only being 3 pieces. It was a very satiating bowl. Cant wait to come back next time again!

    absolutely adore tora! one of the few places i'd always recommend in boston! fish quality is pretty…read moregood and they have a good variety on the menu! i'd recommend the aburi waygu don but also something more interesting is the kani-yaki tama don however that's a bit more if u like imitation crab! resturant inside is pretty casual and service once seated is usually good and quick however resturant itself is very small so wait times on weekends are ALWAYS long but again it's a given for how popular the resturant is! (p.s. i've been here soooo many times times so i'd also say quality has always been consistent)
