    The food was absolutely amazing I had the chicken katsu curry just rice and red dragon maki roll…read moresushi my family members had the duck udon noodles thin noddles and duck maki roll and another had the beef ramen it was all amazing.the service was incredible when we first walk in to the moment we stepped out the two girl who were working were so nice and polite.the feel of sushi life was brilliant as well through the set up of the table the art on the walls and how you could see into the kitchen as well . Also I really liked how the tables where so separated there not to close so you are taking over the person next to you with that in mind the music was also a very nice volume I could speak however in the silence of eating it was nice .I would 100% go again

Imagine my shock upon finding a sushi place that does amazing crazy American-style rolls in Cardiff! A firm recommend from me. *NOTE: You MUST book in advance. The restaurant is tiny and extremely popular. We booked in advance for my birthday meal and it was filled to the brim. We witness the host needing to turn away quite a few people who showed up without a reservation. If you don't have a reservation, you might end up disappointed. --- ~ Atmosphere: It's a tiny little restaurant with cramped seating. It's nice and clean, but I wouldn't recommend it for large groups at all. ~ Customer Service: The only downside. Don't get me wrong, everyone was very nice but I think it was understaffed when we showed up. There was only one waitress and she acted as a host/server/waitress for an entire filled-to-the-brim restaurant. She was always busy with something that it would take quite a while to flag her down. It took quite a while before our orders were finally taken but from that point the food didn't take too long to arrive. ~ Food: Fantastic. We ordered a selection of different Maki Rolls which came on cute bridges used as platters. My recommendation would definitely be Yellow Dragon, which is a roll of salmon, avocado and cucumber topped with melted cheese. For £7.80 it was well worth it. The prices were fair so it was fun to order a bunch of rolls to see which are the favourites. I left full and without a massive hole in my wallet. Will definitely be making a return trip! TIP: Don't skip the mochi for dessert!

I was super excited to see Korean fried chicken on the menu... Then I was super disappointed when my order came out. It was just their karaage with what tasted like barely-doctored bottled Thai sweet chili sauce. The worker who was in charge of our table was an absolute nightmare. She was a short Asian woman--I didn't get her name. She was extremely rude to the group and very short. It got to the point where we didn't even want to flag her down to order more because her attitude towards us was so bad. I won't be back. But if you do decide to go, they have a Unidays discount. At least that softened the blow of this awful experience.

    Yo Sushi - Making It perfectly acceptable for you to sit at a buffet, alone, since 1997…read more For those who are new to the world of Sushi it's pretty simple - Sit. Take. Eat. Pay. The plates are even coloured coordinated - Six colours, six prices. From £1.90 to £5.00. Leave your plates at your side and they'll be totalled up at the end. Now if like me you don't like fishy-fish don't rule out Yo Sushi just yet. There are still a range of dishes available that won't make you think of 'Finding Nemo' My favourites: Inari Pockets - Sweet Soy Bean Curd Pocket with Rice. Duck Gyoza - Duck Dumplings, Hoisin Sauce. Chicken Gyoza - Chicken Dumplings with Soy and Vinegar Sauce. Chicken Katsu - Chicken Katsu, Rice, Mild Curry Sauce and Red Ginger. Each of the above contain less than 120 calories! *Tip: Visit on a Monday and enjoy almost ALL dishes for just £2.50.

The staff are pretty friendly and this location always seems pretty clean. The rice bowls are probably some of my favourites. A good filling meal for the price and always reliable.

    I wish we had more places like Itsu in the states!

Itsu is a Japanese and sushi type takeaway fast food establishment. Seems big here in the UK and I really don't get why the US, especially spots like LA don't have more spots like this. It's so easy for on the go work and travel meals without feeling like you have to settle for greasy fast food. Prices were actually pretty reasonable and service was super fast. Ordered on a large screen my meal, paid by card, and it printed out my order number/receipt. Waited near the main desk as a gal was pulling together the orders. They did have sit down seating but post common was people taking the food away. As I waited I was impressed by their little stand that had different options of paper bags, utensils, and sauces. Once my number was caller my food was packaged on the counter, put it in my Togo bag and headed on my way. Ordered salmon sushi (six pieces) and double chicken teriyaki bowl with an easy soft boiled egg with a fancy water, all for $20. I was really impressed because I'm easily spending about $10-$15 on gross greasy fast food in the states so getting sushi and a nice rice bowl for $5 was well worth it! Also the additional sauces and condiments were cheap so worth it too. The sushi slices are really thin but honestly tasted pretty fresh for fast food Togo sushi. Good flavor from the wasabi. The teriyaki chicken rice bowl was super filling and impressed with the perfection of the egg. Loved my lychee peach water, light flavor and refreshing. All in all the taste was about a 3.5 but that's pretty good for Asian takeaway (white wash food), saying this with no offense intended! It's not authentic is what I mean but definitely good and filling. Super happy to have stumbled upon this spot and worth a quick meal on the go while traveling and wanting an easy introverted style meal.

They have half…read morepriced sushi some days, which is great, except when you show up on days that are full priced (like me). The decor is clean and spacious, service is okay. I ordered the chirashi and my friend ordered the spider roll and sushi set. The chirashi had some good bites of fish, fresh and tender, but for the most part, the bento was half crab stick and tamago (egg) for filler. For 9 pounds, it was a little light on the fish, which made me sad. The sushi set looked good, with a good amount of tempura to fill you up. The spider roll, however, was very heavy on the rice, packed so tight and not recently, so that the rice was dense and a bit chewy. If my meal were a half priced meal, I'd totally rock the place with a three star review. The portion sizes were good and the quality sufficiently okay to eat there regularly. But to get what we did on a full price night, with no additional perks or service? Sorry. Two stars.

Usually if a restaurant has good sushi, they really go to town on hiking the prices up. Then I walked past Obento one day and saw their 'half price sushi' poster in the window, and I am not one to pass up a good bargain, especially when there is sushi involved. When I got my sushi, I was so happy with it. They really put thought into the presentation of my food, eventhough I only ordered off the half price sushi range, which I really appreciated. Now the taste - fresh, light and clean. Their half price offer was only for a few months, but it seems to always be extended, which works fine for me! I have been here numerous times, and won't stop going anytime soon. They have the freshest sushi I have tasted for a long time - and I have been on the lookout for years.
