I love coming here, especially on a Monday to take advantage of Blue Monday where plates are £2.70. I hadn't been in a long time so it was nice to see some new dishes. My favourites were still on there - pumpkin korroke, prawn katsu, gyozas and still taste as delicious! We tried a few dishes that neither of us liked, I'm not sure of their policy for replacing dishes if you don't like it as you are picking them yourself, but as they were only cheap, we didn't mind paying for them. We ordered some dishes from our waitress, sadly only some turned up. One was taken to the wrong table who sent it away and we tried to call the chef back to get our dish, but they had disappeared already so we never got that one. Another dish just never appeared so after waiting a long time I let the waitress aware we didn't want it anymore. So I must admit I was a little disappointed on this occasion, but I will be back none the less. read more

Californian Roll Pumpkin Korroke Salmon Terriyaki Vegetable Firecracker Rice Miso Black Cod Just remembering eating at Yo Sushi makes my mouth water. As well as offering a vast selection of fresh and wholesome nigiri, sashimi, maki and nori handwrapped, sushi - you can get noodles, rice, raw and cooked tuna, salmon, prawns, chicken and veggies. All the dishes are priced according to the colour of the plate they're served on - so if you're on a budget, make sure you glance at the plate before you swoop it off the conveyor belt! At £1.70 and £2.20 respectively, the green and blue plates are the cheapest and the pink and grey are the most pricey at £3.50 and £5.00. The lay-out of this particular branch means all the seats are positioned around the kitchen - so you get to see the chefs prepare, cook and add new dishes to the conveyor belt. They also serve damn good, miso soup. read more

Fun experience - mediocre food. Sushi in the US is hands down much tastier. read more

I like this place for the novelty factor. But its over priced, but you don't notice it much as those little dishes that come round on the belt range from about £2.50 to about £6... but stack a few of those on and its easily about £20 per head. Also the selection of food on offer pretty limited at lunchtime. For good Japanese food in Brighton, there's better places to go... read more

Yo Sushi is one of the few chain restaurants that I frequent these days. OK, its not the best sushi restaurant out there but it certainly fills a gap in the market. I especially like Blue Mondays - all dishes priced at £2.30. I always think this will lead to a cheap meal. Unfortunately, it just encourages me to eat more and I still never leave with a bill less than £20! Mondays used to be really busy due to this offer, but recently there has been a bit more space which allows for a more comfortable dining experience, and less eve's dropping on other people's conversation. I love the miso soup here, and love the fact you get free refills even more. Edemame, sashimi and tempura prawns are a must, plus I tried the spicy chicken ISO on my last visit on the recommendation of Jenny L, yum. Order the hot food off the menu instead of the conveyor belt, this ensures it gets to you hot and fresh. Don't bother with the puddings, there is nothing that will particularly blow you away. Staff are always really friendly and helpful, both the servers and the chefs. I also like that the food is prepared in the middle so you can watch everything being done. One word of advise - don't wear a white top when chop sticks, soy sauce and a lack of expertise are involved in dinner! read more

I think it's a little pricey. But that's because I am greedy and when I eat out, I want both quality and quantity. People who own 15inch plates eat 30% more in calories than everyone else. So the cute little dishes at Yo Sushi have their benefits. The plates here are too smart and colourful though. They mislead you. Before you know it, you're staring lazy eyed at a tower of dishes in front of you. As you try and calculate your total bill, you give up. This is not the time for maths. But is it the time for chewy, chocolatey doughy Japenese rice deserts? No, it's never time for them. read more

Yo this place is EXPENSIVE! I love sushi as much as the next gal, but £28 for a sushi lunch is just unreasonable! They get you for your money here seriously. It sucks because everything is priced by the color of the plate, but not every sushi dish is on the conveyor belt. For example, the cheapest plate was the green one, yet they only had edamame on green plates going around - NONE of the other green plate rolls. There was quite a bit missing from the belt, with quite a few of the same ones going around. I'd recommend they try to keep at least a couple pieces of each roll going around instead of 10 plates of the same 3 rolls going around. Well, once you start going and you turn into the emoji with the tongue sticking out, you start RACKIN up that bill. They recommend 4-5 plates if it's your first time...but with plates prices at £2.30-£6.00 that racks up really easily. I ate a few rolls, i ordered some fried rice that turned out to be the spiciest rice I've ever eaten in my life (so spicy that my eyes were heavy watering and I couldn't finish more than half), and had two mocho ice cream plates. Yeah, I feasted well, but at 2 pieces a plate, and my average plate cost at £4, it's sooo easy to rack up a heavy bill. I wouldn't come back, but I did appreciate the belt sushi experience in Brighton. read more

Ever since I saw the movie Johnny English, I had been slightly put-off by conveyor belt sushi restaurants but, several years ago, when I first stepped into Yo Sushi, all my fears quickly disappeared. I know it's a big chain and there are plenty of other great independent sushi places around Brighton, but I just can't help but love this place. It's so much fun to eat here and I have enjoyed myself each time, without fail. They have a very formulaic system which ultimately works very well. The pricing system is easy and effective - with each dish displayed on a different coloured place and each colour indicating which price bracket it falls into. This is great because it means you're very much in control of what you're spending and you can calculate the price of your meal out really easily. That being said, it's very easy to wrack up a gigantic bill in here! You can easily get caught up in the fun and forget! The sushi is great! It's freshly made and it tastes delicious. They have loads of different options to try so there's pretty much something for everyone. They have sashimi and sushi along with great salad dishes and hot mains that can be ordered off the menu. The staff in this Yo Sushi are particularly friendly, as well, which is great! Whether serving you at your table or helping you with a take-away, they're always very polite and smiley. It may lack the charm and authenticity of other independent sushi places, but Yo Sushi just works for me! It's a great, easy spot to drop in and grab some comsistently tasty sushi at a reasonable price. I'll be back, no doubt! read more

I used to really like this place until I started paying attention to their preparation methods. If you look closely when they are making your food, nothing is fresh. Absolutely everything is pre-prepared. It's basically the Wetherspoons of sushi. All of the desserts come straight out of plastic wrappers and all of the fish is the same. Yes, they put the sushi together for you, but the actual fish is already chopped up long before they get to it. On top of this, the service is pretty dreadful. Every single time I have been here, they have forgotten to give me one of the dishes that I have ordered. Every time. Last time I went, they had run out of lots of their dishes (including salmon???) which was very disappointing. Our food also took an insanely long time to get to us which is frustrating as you can see that the kitchen is not busy as you can see everything they are doing. They even ended up shutting the kitchen early whilst we were still in there and waiting for four dishes! When we were told they were shutting, I asked if we could still have the food we were waiting for. The chef gasped and looked at me like I had asked her to give me her first born child. She looked really shocked that we still had food to come - and I'm not entirely sure why seeing as we had ordered it nearly 30 minutes earlier. We then got informed that they didn't have one of the dishes that we wanted, so the waiter said, "Oh you don't have to have another dish if you don't want to", which I thought was very odd seeing as I had ordered it so clearly wanted to eat it! Also, we were there for the '10 dishes for £20' deal so I didn't really appreciate being told we could only have 9 dishes but still pay for 10. The only good thing about this place is that the deals are decent. 10 plates for £20 is a good deal, as is 'Blue Monday' where everything on the belt is one of their blue plates (cheapie dishes). The fact that their deals are good is the one solitary reason that I have given this place 2 stars instead of 1. And I guess their tamago is really tasty too. But that's it! read more

I love Yo Sushi. I really really do! Especially on Blue Mondays, where all the plates are super cheap! My favourites are they Duck gyoza and the chicken katsu curry. Delightful little bowls of goodness. The food is always fresh and delicious, and the staff are always nice too. I need to go to Yo Sushi more. read more

Sushi-go-rounds will excite even the most hardened homosapians, who doesn't want to see what could be their dinner travelling around on an adventure before it's ultimate demise? But that excited does eventually wear off and disappointment ensues. The food choice here is of plenty but can become expensive after a few dishes, Blue Mondays is good though as all plates are half price. Extra detective work is required to suss out some the actual veggie dishes but when you do they're worth it. I heard a few people complaining about the staff and service but I always found them to more than accommodating. read more

Yo Sushi - yo! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brighton, BNH

Yo Sushi is the silliest place I have ever eaten in my life. The sushi is unremarkable, so they send it whizzing past you on a conveyor belt and hope you will be dazzled by speed and colors and wow! future is now! The mochi were cute, but isn't cute the very nature of mochi? I can't figure out if I liked it better, or worse, for the conveyor belt. read more

I love Blue Mondays were a lot of the more expensive dishes are cheaper. The octopus balls are particularly great! The only thing that puts me off is it looked like they were cooking from frozen?! read more

In general, Yo Sushi doesn't really float my boat. Whilst conceptually I enjoy the space-age colourful food pods whizzing around me, the process of choosing my food actually makes me a little anxious. I feel like there's only a small window of time for decisions to be made, before the sushi has either passed me by or been snapped up by a neighbour. This is, of course, ridiculous- I could always get up and chase my sushi down the conveyor belt! Aside from anxiety issues, I also find it to be a little pricey- you can't really eat a substantial amount without spending between £10-£15. Also, is the sushi actually that good? Fair enough, I have been spoilt by years of Californian sushi, but I make great sushi at home, so what's the deal? However, you can't argue with free miso soup (I always order at least 2 or 3 bowls!) and they do great offers if you sign up to their mailing list- 40% vouchers and the like. What I do like about this Yo Sushi is that it looks out towards the Jubilee library square, which (dare I say it) is quite visually pleasing for a new development. I also really like the Mango pudding and the Dorayaki is delicious, for those with a sweet tooth! read more

Yo Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brighton, BNH

I'm in love with Japan. Games, films, anime clothes, culture history... and now cuisine. Yo Sushi is a damned tasty, wonderfully laid out little establishment that turns everything I thought I knew about restaurants on its head! Sitting around the kitchen - which is open on all sides so you can see each meal prepared - a small conveyor belt runs in front of you carrying dishes of various colours and varyingly severe prices. The number you pick up depends on your appetite, but some of the pricey-er ones work out as pretty good value... But! Head there on any Monday, and you'll enjoy a blue Monday... Not blue as in "your looking rather blue today" blue as in "you mean everything is only £2.20?!". You will have to pay extra if you want to nab yourself the top tear (£5.90) meals, but that's understandable when you see that these are practically the size of curries anyway. If what you are after isn't coming around, you can always ask for it especially. You must, Must! do this for at least one, if not two dishes... Tempura, and hairy prawns... If you are adventurous, jump in and try them. But if you need a little more info, pop over their website and take a goosey loosey at what each has to offer... Who knows, you may end up buying take out too? read more

Sushi is one of my favourite dishes and I do frequent the Yo places quite a bit up in London so I was over the moon when one sprouted up in my home town. The first thing I thought though was they are going to be in direct competition with moshi moshi and they are hard to compete with. I think it fails to come anywhere near the standard of its rival. The service was pretty poor and quite slow and the place seemed to be staffed by un-interested students who just wanted to get you in and out of the door asap. The sushi tasted great but the portions were quite small and didn't really reflect the price. Real shame. read more

I feel slightly ashamed to admit just how excited I get by Yo! Sushi. The combination of ultra-modern decor and the endless multitude of brightly coloured little bowls containing my favourite foods going round and round in circles makes me immensely happy. I have been to other (better) sushi restaurants but none of them seem quite so, well, cool. Ok, I know it's a chain and it does work out fairly expensive (I never spend less than £20 per head) but I think it's worth it for the novelty. The wine is slightly overpriced (at about £5 a glass), but I don't often drink here (and the bottomless miso soup goes some way to making up for it.) Without a doubt, the best time to go here is on their 'Blue Mondays' when every dish is £2.20 the same price as their blue plates are normally. During this offer the selection isn't as extensive as usual (unless it's me imagining it?), but it's still pretty damn good. There are also usually discounts to be found online, like 50% off vouchers, so it's well worth giving Yo! Sushi offers a Google before you head out. read more

This was the first Yo Sushi I ever went to and had me hooked from the start - and I don't even like fish! That is one thing that is commonly misunderstood about Yo Sushi: there is lots of choice for meat eaters and vegies as well as fish lovers. read more

Cover me in teriyaki when I die! I highly recommend the furikake fries, the cauliflower thingy and the chicken katsu curry. Their soft shell crab tempura is hands down the best in Brighton. The food is always fresh and they cater to most tweaks you need or want to the offering. The service is always friendly and big shouts for our waitress Megan, the perkiest waitress there could be! read more

Fancied a bit of sushi in Sunday evening and was greeted by the waiter saying they had been busy and lots of things had sold out. He was right hardly anything was left on the menu and the conveyor belt was mainly empty. Towards the end of the meal both my wife and I were rushed out as we were told the kitchen was closing. It was 7.45. Most of the food seems to be packaged yet there is always a wait to get the food. Better options available in the city but yo sushi is cheaper read more

My partner and I stopped in for a quick bite on Tuesday 23 April. We each had six pieces of sushi and a salmon cup, and we shared a 3-piece sushi cup and a seaweed cup. Everything was marked "Sat" meaning it was probably made two days earlier. The sushi was soft and falling apart. We had water only- no liquor. It was not a good meal at all. Then we got the bill- £44!! If we weren't in a hurry I definitely would have complained. We won't go there again! read more

Best of Brighton Challenge: Week 4 My favourite Brighton spot. Well for me it has to be Yo Sushi. I absolutely love sushi and their prices are reasonable. They also offer 'blue Mondays' which is great for me as I feel I have to go for it. The booth seats are great for groups of around 6 or you can sit 'right by the tracks' if there is only 2 of you. Another thing I love is that being a fish lover and knowing my partner isn't, we can still go there as they offer some wonderful vegetable, chicken and beef dishes. Win win! read more

I do love that this restaurant shakes up the way we eat by turning our food into decor and excitement- placing the dishes on a moving conveyor belt with the tables and stools alongside it. The food is prepared in a central kitchen area around which the conveyor and all else circulates-as it should be in a restaurant really. The sight of the dishes moving slowly past you on the conveyor helps you decide what you want to eat, stimulates your appetite and provides entertainment...Particularly good if you are having an awkward date! As Sarah-Jane says- you need to be careful of your choice of plates if you are on a budget. And it is the cost of sushi that really holds me back from giving Yo Sushi more stars. I realise that the point of sushi is to savour small portions of different delicious dishes- and there is no doubt it makes for a more exciting and healthier meal. However, the small size of the dishes combined with the continual movement of them past you leads you to spend more than you want to. It's quite hard in fact to spend less than £10 unless you go for lunch and can be strict enough to have a light meal. So I guess the issue I really have with Yo Sushi is that it presents itself as a convenient, efficient and more budget sushi option but is actually not much cheaper than other sushi restaurants. The vegetarian tempura is very good, I have to admit but generally I feel that Moshi Moshi's sushi is better quality and not much more money. The main reason then to go to Yo Sushi is not to save money but for the novelty of their restaurant design. It would be good if they had more veggie options on the conveyor as well...I had less opportunity to enjoy grabbing my food as it floated past me! read more

The sushi rice was way salty. Basically all of it was just salty, absolutely terrible. dont even bother going.

I came here a couple of months ago, and I got the avocado maki (without mayo, as mayo is disgusting) and the edamame (without onions, because onions are also disgusting), and both were great, especially the sushi. The avocado tasted so good and the texture was good- it wasn't overly soft or chewy. The edamame beans were very salty, which I like but if you don't like very salty food then you'd probably want to ask for it without salt. For dessert, I don't remember the exact name of what I ordered but it was basically these chocolate rice ball things, which taste amazing. At first I wasn't sure I liked them but after having them a couple more times after, I've come to really love them. Overall I highly recommend coming here if you like sushi. If you don't like sushi, however, then probably avoid, as this is a sushi restaurant after all. read more

Very creative, well prepared dishes of stunningly good veggie items (pumpkin in particular!). Recommended for a quick light lunch stop-off.

I've been to several Yo Sushi and this is the best, in my opinion. The same food as other branches always seems so much better presented here than others, although it's popularity often means there is a sizeable queue for a seat. Lots for veggies and non-fish eaters, a good place to take people new to the idea of sushi read more

I really like this place and i love the food. Water and miso soup are unlimited once you pay once and the food is great. The service is good and fairly easy to control the price due the bowls color system. read more

I really like eating here, and I really like the concept also. It's bustling, lively, loud and the conveyor belt method of choosing the food is great. You only eat what you want, when you want. That's not all that's on offer though, they make up any other dishes you want fresh. That said though, I only find myself coming here when there is some form of promotion here, otherwise I find it can get very expensive. If your budget isn't an issue then great, but if you're hungry and work your way through enough plates, then I hope it's close to payday.. read more

I cant say that I hate this place because I love love luuuuuve sushi and theirs is nice and I have gone back a few times, but always because there was an offer and I always leave reminded of why I don't go there more often. The portions are tiny and way waaay over priced and the staff are inattentive and sometimes a bit rude(only some of them not all). read more

I Loooove Yo Sushi. Okay, its a chain, and the food itself isn't always spectacular, but its got a crazy decor, the selection is massive, and your food gets delivered to you on a conveyer belt. Paying for water seems a bit silly, but the miso soup more then makes up for that. read more

If the sheer beauty of this restaurant doesn't reel you in, the food will certainly snare you; this is an entirely different eating experience. Seated either in a booth or around the kitchen, all senses are awakened, from the enticing smell to the futuristic, authentic feel of the building. Being influenced by the real deal, the food travels around the seating area on a little runway in miniature colour coded bowls, or if you prefer you can have a meal cooked fresh in front of you. As a devout vegetarian, I was sceptical of a sushi bar but I have been converted; there are options for both meat-eaters and veggies alike with noodles, soups, rice and sushi among the varieties on offer. Located in the centre of Brighton, and very competitively priced, you will be hard pushed to find a healthier, cheaper and more exciting dining experience. read more

lovely concept.portions bit small.bit pricey..but food always taste brillianti try go there every so often its worth a go for sure :)

I don't think you can beat Yo Sushi! on a Sunday evening - an awesome range of dishes on the conveyor, a server practically to yourself, a choice of tables, a nice quiet atmosphere and a hot bowl of miso soup! Plus very often you can get discount vouchers from their website to help with the cost. This brings me to my only downside - the place can get very expensive particularly if you normally have a huge appetite! read more

Usually the food here is excellent though a little pricey but recently my son and some of his friends were very ill after eating there on a Sunday night. Obviously something on the conveyor belt had been there a bit too long. It was not up to their usual high standard. My son did phone and complain having had to take a day off work to recover from the food poisoning. He was told someone would get back to him but they never did, not good enough Yo Sushi. read more
