    This place is so good! I got the fire cracker. I am BLOWN AWAY. The absolute best thing I've ever eaten. 10/10! I would ask for this as my last meal. The Rangoons were also so good. I couldn't recommend this place enough! Service was also very fast. COME HERE!!

    The 3 rolls I ordered were enjoyable but most of the avocado wasn't quite as ripe as it could have been and the sheer size of the pieces in the special roll made it difficult to eat.

    hair all on my rolls. disgusting. so dissapointed. ordered takeout and there's hair over everything

    Rainbow, Godzilla, Fire Cracker, & complimentary California Roll.
    Rebecca B.

    Ordered takeout, $43 for 3 rolls + complimentary California roll. Still haven't dined in yet, and as of now, they're only doing takeout and delivery. My favorite roll is the Godzilla roll. Deep-fried spicy tuna goodness. The rainbow roll was also pretty good too, fish was fresh and the roll was prepared nicely. The firecracker roll, however, wasn't that impressive as well as the California roll. I like how they give a good amount of wasabi & ginger for every roll, even in a takeout order. I ordered online and waited 20 - 30 minutes to pick up my order which seemed reasonably quick considering the day. A little pricey compared to other sushi spots but still very filling and worth a try because of it's convenience.

    Salmon (Sake) A La Carte, Salmon Tartar, Tobiko (Flying Fish Egg) A La Carte, Eel (Unagi) A La Carte (Cooked), Tom Yum Goong

    Well, they've done it. Earned 5 stars! My last 2 orders, they hit it out of the park. EVERYTHING was amazing. I wrote a really long detailed review but it exceeded the character limit so here's a shortened version with bullet points. *The salmon nigiri and sashimi were the BEST I'VE EVER HAD. And I've had a lot. No exaggeration. It was melt in your mouth amazing with a texture like otoro (fatty tuna belly) and the taste was perfection as well and it was fresh as could possibly be. Zero fishy smell/taste which can be an issue with salmon. Seriously I have never had salmon this good and I am addicted to it now. I ordered more the next day immediately. If I was rich, I'd live off this stuff and order it every single day. It is seriously that good. Mind blowingly good. My only tiny critique with the sashimi version is I just wish they cut it into several thin slices. Instead, you get one big block of delicious, melt in your mouth buttery tender salmon. Their tuna sashimi was the same so I guess this is a stylistic choice. I ended up just cutting it myself, but I definitely didn't do anywhere as good of a job as a sushi chef would. It's not a huge deal and it didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the salmon, but it would just be nice to have it cut the same way the nigiri is. It would be more of an issue with a less tender fish than the salmon too. *salmon tartare-the tuna tartare was already one of my absolute top favorite dishes here and the salmon tartare is the same except even better because it has that orgasmic salmon! *white tuna nigiri-delicious, buttery, tender, almost as much as the salmon. I believe it is probably escolar (usually that's what white tuna means) which would explain the nice fatty buttery texture. Will definitely order this again and prefer it to the maguro *orange tobiko sushi-finally the tobiko I wanted! I thought all tobiko was the same, silly me. The orange tobiko is noticeably smaller than the black or green, and also much sweet, more delicate, and less briny. I thought their black and green tobiko weren't up to par on freshness but I was so wrong, it was just a different variety than what I was used to and looking for. The orange tobiko is perfection and was totally delicious. *eel (unagi) nigiri-most tender eel I've ever had! Melted in my mouth, no graininess as some eel can have. The eel sauce was just right too, not too sweet, and not too much of it, but just enough. *tom yum goong-absolutely delicious!! My first time trying a tom yum soup but it certainly won't be my last. They were pretty generous with the seafood in it given the price, and as always, the seafood was top notch. Big, fresh, juicy shrimp and fresh, ultra tender clams. The broth itself was also beyond delicious and just the right level of spicy (though personally if they had an extra spicy version I would definitely be interested in trying that too!). Now that I know how to order from here, I just have to give them 5 stars. I would advise to stay away from the fried food and fusion rolls, and stick to the more traditional raw fish and seafood based dishes. That is where they excel and I'm honestly so glad because there's way too much fusion/westernized cuisine here and not nearly enough authentic. I'm sick of complicated rolls, I just want fresh, quality sashimi and nigiri where the fish/seafood is the star and I can actually taste it, and Yoo sushi delivers! Yoo sushi-you have become my favorite sushi place to order from in providence! I can't wait to try more!

    Spicy Crunch Tuna Roll, Spicy Crunch Crabmeat Roll, Avocado Salmon Roll, and Eel Avocado Roll
    Waylon J.

    Ordered Yoo Sushi to-go, and I was really pleasantly surprised with the order. The rolls have a fresh taste, and they're also packed with filling. Sushi rice had a nice tartness and although it wasn't Japan level sushi, it was tasty for a New England joint. We ordered around 8 rolls (ranging from spicy crunchy tuna to avocado salmon) and were definitely full by the end of it. Will definitely drop by next time I'm in the Elmhurst/Smith Hill area of Providence.

    Lunch special
    Brian G.

    I would have never stopped at Yoo for lunch had I not seen the good reviews here on yelp. The thought of raw fish combined with it being not the best neighborhood was intimidating. So, thank you yelpers! I had the lunch special at the suggestion of the very pleasant server. I sat at the "bar" and the chef made me a free app that was basically seaweed salad inside of sliced avocado with a tobiko topping. Looked like a scoop of green ice cream and tasted great. Ended up having 3 rolls, a garden salad and the free app for $11.29. Everything, including the wasabi, was fresh and tasty. Presentation was surprisingly great too. Overall, not a place for a glamorous night out but rather a great sushi place for the money!!

    Vegetable Combo #1
    Katarina F.

    You're going to get good sush here! Always go for the sushi combo. You can't go wrong + you get soup or salad. I've been ordering from here for 3 years and the quality has improved although it wasn't even bad to begin with but it somehow managed to be better haha pick up the veggie combo and find a beautiful place to sit and enjoy your mini sushi buffet.

    Pepper tuna
    Kel S.

    I've been a couple times to try the sushi here. The location is a little suspect. It was also very cold inside. Interesting decor. Small space, enough for the few patrons that were dining on the one occasion I "sat in". The other time, I went to take out. Of note, they do deliver, as well. I had the yellow tail with jalapeño, which was quite good. The Naruto roll is also yummy, sushi wrapped with cucumber and no rice. The spicy pepper tuna was good, but not excellent. I found the albacore to be very fresh. The avocado salad was wonderful, and the ginger dressing very tasty. I was not the biggest fan of the Philly role or the Red Snapper sushi. The prices are reasonable and the service hospitable. I'd give them another try.

    Sashimi Tri Color Sashimi
    Nicole B.

    First time ordering from here. Sashimi was very fresh. Came with a miso soup, ordered through Uber eats so probably paid some additional fees. Next time I'll order directly through the business.

    To be honest, I was originally going to Kung Fu Tea, but I found a parking spot right in front of…read moreTen One Tea House so I took it as a sign to try something new. I went in with a craving for something sweet, creamy, and cold, but ended up going for something light and fruity: the peach Yakuit slush. It was only $0.80 more to go from a medium to a large so I went for it and also added aloe for $1. The total was around $7-$8. I did use one of the two kiosks they have since it was my first time there and I wanted to take my time exploring the menu. It was super easy to use, only accepts card payments, and will send you a text when the order was placed and when it's ready. While I waited, I took in the details of the place, including the soft pastel colors and also the theme of squirrels which are one of my favorite animals. I liked the art on the walls, and they've used the space well with some tables along the window looking out to Thayer street, while others hugging the entrance ramp. I did not interact with the staff but they looked like they were killing it behind the counter to push out orders in a timely manner. When I did get my order, I thought it was pretty with a rose pink slush, bright pieces of peaches, and bottom layer of white aloe. I tried shaking it a bit to try to mix it up but it didn't work too well. They have straws with a thick opening to get the chunks through. The slush was very flavorful and a good consistency.

    Rating: 4.5 I've…read morebeen meaning to try this place for a while but decided to try because i passed by and was in the area. It's a small tea shop in providence that offer toppings such as boba and sides like taiwanese chicken. They offer different tea toppings like boba, crystal, jelly, ..etc and also sweetness, milk substitute and ice options. Parking is street parking only and can be difficult to find during busy time. Inside is nicely decorated and has good aesthetic. Seatings are limited so I would not expect to find one unless you are lucky. I guess the name of the place is derived from cha which means tea in Chinese and Daruma who is a founder of zen Buddhism. They have a mascot who looks like Buddha holding a bubble tea. I ended up ordering black milk tea with boba and taiwanese popcorn chicken with seaweed and salt/pepper. Tea came out right away and was pretty good. Good tea flavor but maybe a bit too sweet. Boba is home made and its nice and chewy and no inconsistency. I would do 75% sugar and less ice next time for my liking. Taiwanese popcorn chicken was juicy and flavorful. We also got lucky with seating so we sat down to enjoy their food and drink. Service was good and no issues. Overall the place is pretty good. I think everything was good quality and definitely one of the better tea/fried chicken place around RI. If it was in more convenient location I would definitely come back often but I would likely only stop by if I'm already around the area. I did like the place.

They are also out of ingredients sometimes, including their house made bubbles. On my most recent visit, they messed up my order too. I think the drinks are good, but the service and overall experience is frustrating. My only guess is that I go towards the end of the day (5ish), potentially during a "rush", so I am going to try earlier in the day to see if there is a difference.

In my experience, restaurants are generally broken down into 3 categories as time passes: maintain quality, lower quality and improve their quality. Most are in the maintain quality camp, but I will give them a round of applause for getting better. The food: the Bahn Mi bread had a crispy exterior while having a soft center. The veggies were super fresh and flavorful. Everything came together perfectly! The Vietnamese Iced Coffee was bold, sweet and very craveworthy.
