No consideration or care, plus I got jipped. 3 pieces is considered a full roll now? Never again. Now the food... bland. The sushi rice barely had any flavor. The half of the Chicken Tempura Chicken Roll I was given, but paid full price for, had no seasoning. The chicken needed salt and the avocado did not taste like avocado. The tempura tasted like old grease. Maybe the good flavor was left in the other half of the roll that's still at the restaurant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ My husband didn't even finish his Yellowtail Jalapeño roll or his Shrimp Tempura. Like I said, never again. I should've gone to the mall food court for sushi, smh.
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.
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.
hair all on my rolls. disgusting. so dissapointed. ordered takeout and there's hair over everything
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!
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.
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!!
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.
If you're a sushi lover like me, you know sushi can get pricey! So I was SO happy when I found this lunch special at Yoo Sushi. You can get 2 rolls for $12 or 3 rolls for just $15! They also have a full page of other lunch specials to choose from! Sweet Potato Roll -- 7/10 California Roll -- 9/10 Crunchy Shrimp Roll -- 8/10 Definitely a great spot for an affordable sushi lunch! read more

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!! read more

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. read more

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. read more
Such a nice surprise! Visited with my brother one afternoon for lunch- definitely more of a take out place but we dined in as we were just looking for a quick bite. There's a few tables and a small sushi bar. The sushi was super fresh. I had the spicy crunchy tuna roll and the Philadelphia roll. My brother had the spicy crunchy yellowtail roll. We also shared an order of shumai. Everything was delicious. I'll definitely be ordering sushi from here again as it's right near my house. Parking isn't the best but there is some street spots on the road nearby. read more

Went to the restaurant with a large group on a Thursday night. It's a rather small space but they managed to reconfigure it to accommodate our group. Very small parking lot, but ample parking on the adjacent side street. Minimal decorations and not the typical sushi joint ambiance. Overall the waitstaff was friendly and attentive, great job considering the size of the group. Very diverse menu with something to please most eaters, with a good mix of sushi dinner options depending on your mood. I ordered the sashimi deluxe with a salad. It came with 18 generous pieces of fish and a side of rice. The fish was fresh and came from good cuts. Not the best sashimi, but an excellent value for the money. I can't speak for other menu items or their rolls yets, but I will return to try them again. Total damage was $24 with tip. read more

Honestly I'm shocked that this place has good reviews. I have no idea how they got them. The dishes are microscopic and bland. A skinny California roll with nothing but cucumber? A tiny crab that cost 9 and change? I'm still hungry and totally underwhelmed. read more
This place was really yummy! We ordered delivery and got yaki udon, yaki soba and the crab rangoons. The noodles were so yummy and the portions were large. The crab rangoons were stuffed to the max but the cream cheese was super sweet for me. It comes with a sweet mayo as well and all together it was too much gooey sweetness for me. I am looking forward to trying their sushi next time! read more

Don't let the interior of the place fool you. The food is ver good and tasty. The menu will not disappoint. Many things to choose from. Something for everyone. The only thing they didn't have was a kids menu. My daughters shared an adult entree because of this so not a big deal for us. The staff was friendly. Will definitely go back read more

Delicious fresh sushi! It's a cute little establishment with amazing food. The service was excellent & our waitress was very friendly. (I have to say it's rare to find happy servers at sushi restaurants.) This is is by far on of my top sushi bars to eat at! They are fast and have top quality sushi! The ice cream is amazing too. Highly recommend!! I know they are in the "not-so-nice" part of town, but they offer take out & delivery if you choose not to dine in! I know I'll be getting take out from here if I don't have the time to sit-in and eat. So glad we came across Yoo Sushi. read more
