My go to for peking duck. Great atmosphere, customer service, menu & drinks. They even have the last of the tatami rooms but they call it the Yobo room. read more

I've been going to Yobo for several years now and I have always loved the ambiance and the delicious food. The time I spend there is always precious and the service is very attentive. The owners are always walking around and socializing whilst working. I really appreciate the kindness they show as a family business. read more

Celebrated my wife's Birthday here and I'm so happy we did. Children, Grandchildren 16 total people and everyone left happy. The food was the best, Drinks very good and even a Picture at the table as a momento. Highly recommend. Service was the BEST. Rafael & Ruth read more

Let's talk food. Specifically, let's discuss good food. In discussing said topic, if we were to focus in on say... excellent Asian food, particularly in the Greater New York area, I think its pretty obvious that we need to talk about Yobo. My family and friends and I have been coming here for years. First it was us kids being dragged to try new types of food (when all we wanted to do was see who would drink the grossest concoction of table sauces in their coke), years later the same group of delinquents found ourselves seated around the table with drinks that weren't so pungent but rather, tasty. And then full circle, most recently we invited our parents to join us. Excellent food, great variety, SUPERB service. In short, delish. read more

I've lived in the Hudson valley for 30 years and somehow have never had Yobo until just recently. The food was great. They even forgot one of the items but drove it to my house and gave me an extra to make up for the oversight. Make sure you get the egg roll. Best I ever had read more

Yay for Yobo! Although it's been years since I've been to this place, Yobo has been a fixture on Route 300 since I was a kid and it's still there today, serving up very high quality Asian food. Recession be damned! While Yobo's exterior is placid and calm, resembling a Japanese-style house, the interior is an eye-assaulting mixture of decorative kitsch from every Asian culture. And let's not forget the giant fish tank near the front door. I think they even have koi fish in that thing, although I could be remembering incorrectly. Anyway, the staff at Yobo is very nice and extremely personable, and when I arrived I was seated promptly. The menu is not strictly Japanese, and you can find a variety of Asian dishes ranging from Chinese to Thai. The prices are reasonable, and while my visit was so long ago now that I don't remember what entree I had, I do remember that I had the seaweed salad as an appetizer and it was excellent. My ex-boyfriend, who was my dinner companion that night, knew good Asian food when he tasted it and was pretty much an authority on the subject - he'd grown up going to high-quality Asian restaurants in New York City and Westchester. His verdict? He loved Yobo. He thought the food was fantastic, and you will too. Yobo really does serve some of the best Asian food in the Hudson Valley, all at reasonable prices. The staff works hard to ensure that good food is on everyone's plate and that the customers are satisfied. The Hudson Valley lacks quality Asian restaurants in my opinion, but for the past 20 years Yobo has been swooping in and saving the day time and time again. There's no need to go to your local Chinese takeout place as long as Yobo's in business. read more

I've been to Yobo 5 or 6 times in the past couple years and each experience is great. The service is always attentive, polite, and friendly. The ambiance is very serene and it's done very tastefully to look like a Japanese cherry tree garden with tea lights-- one of the photos from the gallery will highlight that. Their biggest draw for me is the food. The sesame chicken or chow mien is a staple for my orders here. They have a lot of selection and I've yet to see anyone in my party dislike a single food item. Possibly the best Asian cuisine I've ever had. If I could give this place more stars I would. read more

Was very excited at first walking in, theme was as expected old style Japanese environment, this was the best that I have to say about the experience. Restaurant was pretty empty at this point yet Debbie made a point of sitting us directly next to the stairs where all the staff kept walking up and down despite her staff and my party asking her to relocate us. We were told it was not possible. After several bumps from the waitress staff, we decided it was best to exit the establishment as it was clear we weren't welcome. read more

This was my first time coming here and I will never come back. I was so disappointed in the food and as well as the customer service from the manager Debbie. Most of what we ordered was nasty and just didn't taste right. We ate some of our appetizers hoping that maybe our main dishes would taste better but they weren't. And one of the other main dishes was ordered wrong and that point we were over eating at this establishment . When we made this aware to the manager she had an attitude and told us that whatever we ordered we have to pay for it regardless if we liked it . She never offered to see if there is something else we'd like to try . I don't know about you but I've been to other establishments and if something isn't right with the customer they try to accommodate them to make the experience there good.After we stated that we would pay for our drinks and the appetizers we ate but not the main dishes that were nasty and dirty . She called the cops and told them that we weren't going to pay for anything . The police officer came and spoke with us and apologized for the situation and was able to calm the manager down and agree to us just paying for what was eaten and drank. We payed and left . read more

The can't judge a book by its cover is here. From the outside the place looks run down and off the road. Inside it is spotless and very appealing. The food was phenomenal and the service very attentive. It was my wife's birthday so we got the usual singing but the surprise was the digital picture that the took and printed for us. Unforgettable. read more

DO NOT eat at this place. There was a sharp piece of glass as long as my finger in my chicken hibachi that I almost had in my MOUTH before I realized what it was. The owner's response was "it's not our glass" (whaat? where else would it have come from?") and then called the COPS on us when we protested paying the bill. They are incredibly lucky I didn't get hurt. Don't eat at Yobo-- they will serve you glass on a plate and call the cops on you! read more

Salt Lick City. Overpriced, low quality food. Facilities are dirty, showing signs of wear & tear. Thick layer of dust on the decorative banner hanging over our table. We should have run when the mai tais arrived, in a bizarre shade of red, indicating an incorrect mix. Don't make the same mistake, avoid at all costs! read more

Avoid at all costs. Rolls half the size of normal rolls. Owner aggressively asked me why I was drinking my beer out of a bottle. Waited 30 minutes to be seated while there were 10 open tables. Waited 20 minutes for drink refill. On top of all this, saw food being prepared outside while exiting the parking lot. read more

Yobo is a pleasantly-decorated restaurant with an attentive, friendly staff. As vegetarians, we found the menu to have enough variety to more than satisfy us. The food seemed fresh, was very tasty, and nicely presented. Maybe a tad too salty. Maybe a tad expensive. Definitely a good experience. Since this was our anniversary, we splurged on a couple sinful and delicious desserts. read more

What a beautiful location and the service was very good. Attentive and fast! While we thought we were going to a place where they prep the food in front of you, the food was picture perfect when delivered and delicious! Soo fresh! We were a group of 4 and while there were a few couples and 3somes easily accommodated- a large group also came in and were easily seated in another area so it didn't overwhelm us other diners. Going back! read more

I've had fried rice from here twice. There is never any meat in there. I've had the beef and the chicken in separate occasions. I'll probably give them a go again as they aren't expensive but they don't seem to be consistent either. Their fried rice looked yellow once and dark drown a different time. If you're at either of the hotel on 300, I'd say try it out. read more

The St. Valentine's Day Massacre: The evening started by a non-smiling greeting by Miss Sourpuss. She never smiled from the time she greeted us until she showed us to our table. We were seated next to a blaring music speaker where the loud music made it impossible to talk. I asked to be moved and were. After the woman who was the evenings entertainment started singing, we realized they didn't move us far enough away. She was awful..off key...monotonus and did not fit in at all to any type of romantic atmosphere. Where did they find her? I'd rather listen to chalk on a blackboard. We ordered the beef dim sum as the appetizer. Luckily, I looked at them after cutting them because along with the beef ones, there were shrimp ones there also. I have a fish allergy and if I ate that piece of dim sum, the outcome would have not been good. The Pad Thai that my wife ordered had a very weird taste to it. My Shechaun Beef (I asked for no spice) tasted fine but It appeared the kitchen staff added peppers which was not an ingredient listed in the menu..and I don't care for peppers. The peanut butter explosion we had for dessert was very good. Little did we know that the dessert would be aptly named later on in the evening. Ten minutes after leaving, we both developed stomach cramps. We barely made it home when both of us had EXPLOSIONS of another kind for the next two hours. I still had severe stomach cramps the next day. Now I have written over 250 published restaurant reviews and I don't think our problem was caused by food poisoning but I believe it was caused by some type of unsanitary conditions or improper food handling. I also want to mention I emailed YOBO within two hours of returning home. I included my email address and phone number and no one was courteous enough to contact me. I guess they don't care that much about their customers. Steve read more

First time here at Yobo and I am Asian myself and recognize all these foods on the menu. Everything at the restaurant here is very sweet. This was by far the most horrible Asian restaurant I've ever came to. read more

Yobo has excellent food and a beautiful atmosphere. The wait staff is friendly and prompt. Some of the food is overpriced for the amount you get - for example, the crab rangoons. They are the best, I've ever had, but are tiny. For what they charge, I think they should double the portion they give. But that's my only complaint. If you are in town, you have to stop by Yobo. read more

I have to disagree with the poor reviews on this restaurant. I have been going here for over 15 years now and have never been disappointed. The service is always good and the meals are authentic and fresh. I have to admit though, I have not tried the Sushi so maybe there is something to compain about there, however I highly doubt it since everything else here is great. read more

Ordered curb side service it was prompt ready at the time requested. Food was warm and tasty, got a couple of drinks and were all delicious. read more

When I first walked into Yobo I was instantly dazzled. The decoration in this place is fabulous and made for such a great atmosphere. I started with a very optimistic attitude, but I was soon let down when we waited at least 10 minutes for someone to come and take our drink order! Once they came and we ordered the whole meal things picked up. The calimari appetizer and the sushi appetizer were both very good. There wasn't a lot of calimari however. I had the Yobo special, which was very enjoyable. All the dinner meals were plentiful and came with salad and white rice. The deserts were great! I had chocolate mousse and it was delicious. So, overall the place was nice, the food was good but the service was slow. But hey, we were there at 6:30 on a saturday night so it only dropped down to 4 stars. Deffinately a place I'd return to read more

So we've been here three previous times. All were great experiences BUT unfortunately this time it was just not good. It was like they were asleep at the wheel that night. On their menu they have Rogue's Sriracha Imperial Stout....it's spicy, strong and goes wonderfully with Asian food....AND THEY WERE ALL OUT!! So with that, I was already pissed. (I actually went there for it too). Strike one against the management that night....it was too early in the evening for them to run out of something that is featured on the menu. Not to menti on they could have easily stocked upon it from Beer World on rt32 IN new Windsor for cheap. There's just no reason to run out. We ordered the special Rainbow Roll and 4 other basic rolls...all of which contained way too much avacado, stale tasting avacado....something was wrong with it. ANYWAY...a Rainbow Roll is supposed to basically be a California Roll (crab, cucumber, a little mayo topped with various pieces of Sashimi....but this was just piss poor. They used an insane amount of Avacado and the rest was CREAM CHEESE, no crab, WFT...it was like they had no idea how to make it. Perhaps they had a new sushi chef that night and he/she was terrible. When we sent it back the first time they actually inserted more freakin avacado after taking out the cream cheese...that should have never been there in the first place. The waiter all the while seemed to have no opinion on the matter. He was clueless as to what the menu said the rolls were supossed to contain. We'll chalk it up to an off night....we'll be back but perhaps not for a while. It's time to look for a new sushi joint in town. Oh and PS....it's 2015 get a baby changing counter for both of your bathrooms. Stop being cheap. read more

Great food and amazing customer service. I received the wrong order due to a computer malfunction and they were quick to acknowledge the issue and offer to replace my meal. The most pleasant customer service I've experienced in a long time. Thank you Yobo, and thank you Debbie. read more

A must visit, great experience food is amazing and the service it's a 10/10 strong enough alcoholic drinks, the place is very clean and make you feel welcome, the atmosphere and taste of the food are a great combination read more

The sushi at this place is pretty good. I usually do a take out of about 6 to 8 rolls and it's about $50. The other meals are alright, but the atmosphere and staff are pretty good. read more

Our second choice for sushi. I actually order the noodles and rice dishes. My wife our sushi dinner. We've also enjoyed the Peking duck. Excellent. read more

I ordered a noodle soup and the noodles were over cooked. There was barely any broth in my soup too. A lot of noodles and barely any veggies. Also I ordered the spicy sauce and it had no spice at all. read more

Yobo - Sushi Bars Near Me - Newburgh, New York

See all

We love this place. It has ups and downs but we only notice because we go there a lot. Sushi is really good and selection of fish is very fresh. Gold everything, from dumplings to tempura calamari and hand rolls. Service is hot and cold, hostess (or owners, not sure) are very strange but besides that, we always have a good time and enjoy the food. read more

Not only is the food overcooked, underseasoned, and drenched in sauce, but the manager basically tells you "too bad" when you complain. My mom barely touched her food and couldn't do anything (no substitution) other then pay for it. And my sister, my mom and I got three different dishes and they all had the same issues. Even the sushi roll we had for an appetizer wasn't as good as sushi you can get from ShopRite. read more

Good sushi- not great. very good service. lovely ambiance. Not nice enough for me to go back though. I go across the river to Isamu now. read more

I use to go to this restaurant when I was a little kid. I remember my stepdad getting this amazing plate. So I ordered it tonight and boy was I disappointed. Didn't taste the same and the steak tasted very off. Probably because it wasn't cooked to the right temp but then when it was it still tasted like crap. When the server told the manager I was unhappy they just let it be and gave me my check where I then had to ask for a discount since I didn't eat the steak because it was horrible. It tasted old. To top it off I now have stomach issues from that meal. Never going back. read more

YUCK! We only went here because it was POURING rain & it was 0.5 miles from Hampton Inn & we were starving after a drive from Adirondacks. ALERT: This was some of the worst Asian food We have EVER eaten! The prices are HIGH & the sweet sickening sauce on both our entrees was terrible (Happy Noodles & Hibachi chicken). I am glad I am not diabetic. Where is the soy sauce in that kitchen?? read more

Food is okay but would never return after the horrible service we experienced three times! The worst of it all is the manager was the nastiest, so rude and not welcoming. I don't recommend read more

I got the wok chicken and shrimp and veggie plate over noddles and it was sooo tasty not spicy and my husband got the crusty beef which I loved even more. Loved this spot. It was nice inside also just no windows so it's a little dark read more

This is my favorite restaurant to get sushi I always get the sushi sashimi deluxe which is amazing. The ginger salad is the best from here no one makes the ginger dressing better than Yobo. On top of their amazing sushi their hot dishes are also amazing the sesame chicken has got to be the best I've ever had. The owner is very nice too always greats me when I come and she remembers me too which is very nice I couldn't recommend a better place for Asian food. read more

The only reason I give this 4 stars is because the food was pretty good. I had a aesthetically pleasing Pad Thai. I had some sesame chicken and a salad with a redeeming dressing.The staff was competent and courteous. The negatives include the rocky furniture and awkward seating. I arrived with a large group understandably, however 3 people were trapped booth style in chairs against a wall and its a lot of movement on the end seatees to release them. Overall a pleasant experience. I will return as I hope you will. read more

Great customer service. Good food, great atmosphere, delicious deserts.If you haven't visited yet, get your butt in here.

Miso soup outstanding but expensive. Sashimi was great. Duck meat was extremely odd, tasted kind of gross and looked weird. Great atmosphere and very kind service, but we won't be back because of the duck. Something very weird about the food served here. Watch out. read more

Tisha B. that wrote the review is obviously slightly touched. Jak has horrible food that cant even be compared to the awesomness at YOBO. is Jak even there anymore? lol. Yobo has a fine arrangement of food that is quite extensive. Service is ALWAYS great and sometimes there is a wait, but it is def. worth it. This is one of my favorite restaurants of all time. Anyone that wrote a comment based on busy days like Father's Day or Mother's day should know that there is usually 100's of customers there that day. 100's. I used to live in the Newburgh Area and I would honestly eat there once a week. The food is fantastic, authentic, and amazing. Please branch out and make more so my pallet can be satisfied. :) read more
