Yokohama Japanese Cuisine

Overall, it’s not that clean in here. The windows were dirty, the plates have this odd feeling to it. Makes it feel like a matte texture, seems like it wasn’t cleaned properly
Plates that the food were brought in had residue all over it.
The sushi rice was over seasoned with vinegar. I has a bone in my BBQ eel sushi
Some were good, some weren’t.

I feel violated… Financially, mentally and oral…
If you want the Yokohama special,
Try their miso soup and grilled salmon sushi! ;)
Picking food from the menu is no longer a fun experience but a paranoid mindset for what might come to the table tasting like dish washing liquid or mediocrely acceptable… :)…

Walking out of this restaurant, I felt like I got lied to. This was NOT a Japanese restaurant by any means because the sushi and sashimi were probably one of the worst that I’ve ever had. (I would have had better luck eating the sushi from T&T Supermarket that’s just across the street). The sashimi were cut really poorly and the sizes were small.
And you know what… that wasn’t even the WORST part! THEIR PLASTIC PLATES AND BOWLS REEKED of dish detergent/​bleach. It was so bad that even the plastic coating around those plates and bowls were starting to peel. You literally felt the stickiness from the peeling plastic on the plates and bowls. (This wasn’t just my cutleries, it was everyone’s) My miso soap was a joke. It tasted like soap water. I really don’t understand how you can mess up miso soap… just get a packet from your local grocery store and it’ll taste better than the one from this restaurant! (I can still taste the soap after leaving the restaurant and my mouth feels dry from all the MSG)
The ONLY thing that I thought tasted mediocre was the takoyaki. Out of a whole array of foods that I had tried tonight, it was sad to say that this was the only item I would reorder.
Overall, the décor, iPad menu and the cheesy lighting of the restaurant was a charade to cover up the poor food quality. If you’re the owner of this restaurant, you should be ashamed.

They are not very busy regardless of the day of the week as i have gone on the weekend and weekday. Its extremely spacious and have ample of seating. You order from an IPad which is neat. They have a good variety.
Definitely not the best sushi, it’s alright.
I like the fact that they don’t let the dishes pile up and make sure they take empty plates right away.

I was very satisfied with my AYCE dinner experience here so I returned for lunch soon after. Unfortunately, I wasn’t nearly as impressed with the lunch.
Recommendation: It’s better value to go for AYCE dinner.
Food: 3 stars
Food quality was still good but selection was much more limited for the AYCE lunch. Still had a good variety of sushi but many other appetizers seem to only be offered during dinner. It IS a sushi restaurant after all so it’s totally dependant on your preference.
Ambiance: 2.5 stars
The walls and chairs are dark to contrast all the bright strings of light so the place just seems a bit dim during the day with the natural light through the windows. Once again, I recommend coming for dinner. The entire place looks way nicer.
Service: 3 stars
Everything we ordered came. A few items came much later than the rest but that was ok. They actually offer a la carte for lunch as well but they mainly promote the AYCE. Empty dishes were removed periodically and promptly. Service was okay overall.

The sashimi is always last to come out and is always short counted. Battered items are always doubled up. Some waitresses are really rude but a few are nice. Snow crab legs have virtually no meat

I’ve been to a bunch of places that have the fancy iPad ordering system and don’t find it any better than ordering normally. It might be useful for showing you what you’ve already ordered, but the number one frustration is they don’t bring you everything you’ve ordered (and since you know what you ordered, you’re left sitting there thinking that it’s still coming). They’ll reduce the amount of sashimi you receive, leaving 11 salmon sashimi for 4 people. Random dishes won’t ever come no matter how many times you order it and you’ll only find out after you press them about it and find out it was never in stock, or they’ll finally bring out the avocado sashimi after pursuing it 3 times.
Appearance is very nice. Brightly lit modern décor. Nicely staged pictures for the iPad menu. Most of the dishes came out with excellent presentation. They also have a wide variety of different dishes available and they seemed to be well thought out and weren’t rehashes of existing items.
It is very strange that everything — the plates/​bowls/​utensils all had a rubbery feel (and that you could clean it with a napkin and a bit of water). Is this some sort of weird residue from their dishwasher? I tried not to think too much about it.
10% cash discount if you ask. I asked in Mandarin.

Food was OK. Portions were comically funny for some dishes but the quality was quite average. HOWEVER if you try their Torch Sushi it definitely shows their efforts, I might have gone on an unlucky night for myself as I wasn’t enjoying a Spicy Salmon Maki roll like I usually would. I love the iPad order creation concept and would come back for it. But their 24.99 Evening price definitely not worth it to me for the food — better come for lunch

The place is currently under new management so I was a little hesitant about this place at first. After ordering the first round, I was pleasantly surprised by how fresh the salmon sashimi was. It was unfortunate however, that when ordering fresh shrimp/​scallops (which they are known for), they usually only bring you 30−40% of the quantity amount! Yes I can eat 50 sweet shrimps thank you very much, so I wasn’t impressed there.
As for the other parts of the menu, their new «blow torched» sushi had too much rice, the satay skewers were decent, their noodle soup was OK, and their dessert selection is not too exciting.
Decent sashimi and mediocre everything else.

Service was bad and the iPad system was so slow that our orders took around 10 minutes to go through. This could be due to our booth, which was hidden & next to the washroom, as nobody else seemed to be having this problem. Also, 30% of our orders never came even after ordering it for a second time, and a third in some cases. Terrible service and organization.
The food was lousy as well. The quality of the food was not up to par and portions were extremely small. A piece of sashimi was smaller than half of what you would expect at a normal restaurant. They also never gave us the amount that was actually ordered.
The chicken was extremely overcooked and lacking in flavour. We ordered tempura and they forgot to give us the dipping sauce. We asked three different people but didn’t receive it until 10 mins after. I would not recommend coming to this restaurant and I will definitely not be returning.

Came here during Christmas holidays. It has a good varieties of sushi and fresh ingredients. I’m a big fan of yam sushi, and here has great yam sushi with lots of yam inside (many sushi bars just put little yam but thick tempura skins).
The other types of sushis are tasty too. The rice stickiness and moisture are perfect.
Servers there were very friendly.

I feel like cutting and pasting my «standard AYCE» review here … Hahaha. They have crab legs on their menu for the weekend meals and they removed the salad and ice cream self serve bar that use to be there — good idea for the salad bar but I sort of liked the ice cream self serve.
The sushi and good and the iPad assisted service is quick and efficient.
Would come back for larger gatherings and they accept reservations.

I see all the low reviews and I can kind of see why, but on the other hand, I’m astonished that so many people gave it 1 star when there are so many worse places to go for AYCE in markham/​scarborough.
The service here is quite blunt. They just want to get any interaction between you and them over with. That’s fine– that’s why they have ipads right? I wouldn’t want to talk to humans either, let’s be honest. The servers are so silent that they had 0 response to a bunch of kids on the other side of the restaurant running around, poking each other with chopsticks and straws and making so much noise. Everyone else in the restaurant was clearly annoyed and gave looks but the servers just watched and let the kids do their thing. Ugh. remind me never to have any?
The ipads run smoothly and I’ve never had any missing orders, so good for them. The fresh is not the freshest of the sea, but it’s still pretty good. The chef obviously cares about the presentation, as all our rolls and sashimi comes out looking good. The décor inside is clean and modern, definitely a sushi-​bar-​esque feel.
Now. complaints. Kind of? I don’t really like how the menu has SO many pages of irrelevant things on it, that has nothing pertaining to sushi. There are so many fried rice dishes, udon, ramen. like c’mon. I came here for sushi and I’m not gonna stuff myself with dishes that I can get for a cheap price a few steps away from comic-​sans keung’s delight. Sushi restaurants offering these dishes also means there’s not much time put into them and they often do not turn out tasting very good. I also did not like the calamari here. it was so dry and small. like eating a hard piece of fried rubber? Ech. Everything else is standard or above standard. I definitely loved the mango rolls, the green dragon roll and the winner of the night goes to the roast lamb skewers! They were BOMB. If you come here, you must get it!

The food was great! Service was fast … atmosphere wasn’t bad for a Wednesday night. We had the all you can eat and for the selection that was presented to us on an ipad the price wasn’t bad. Their food presentation was amazing! Especially when you order a sashimi dish it’s served on top of a bowl of ice to keep the fish cool!
Now… with great food and good price you wonder why I gave it ⁴⁄₅ … and that’s because when we ordered desserts they gave us 2 stainless steel spoons for a group of 3. So I asked for a 3^rd spoon for my non asian friend and she came back with a plastic one which I thought was extremely odd considering it wasn’t busy so they could have ran out of stainless steel spoons so that put a bitter taste in my mouth.

I came here two times, first time was for a friends birthday 6 months ago and the food was pretty good. I came here the second and last time yesterday because the restaurant we wanted to go to was full. Yokohama’s sushi has to be the worst sushi I’ve ever eaten in a long time. I can’t believe they went downhill so quickly in just 6 months. The sushi rolls got significantly smaller and it was pretty much tiny sushi with a lot of rice. The sashimi was tiny as well, it was probably ¹⁄₃ of the normal sized sashimi. What is this, sushi for ants? Their sashimi was regular 6 months ago and it was awesome, I’m not sure why they decided to make it so small. Why is everything so small?! Yes, I realize that you can just order more but who wants to eat tiny sashimi?
Their miso soup was disgustingly salty… how do you even manage to mess up miso soup??? They had the smallest tempura shrimp I’ve ever seen, which makes me believe they buy low quality shrimp in bulk. They also had the typical mango yogurt dessert which a lot of Asian all you can eat places offer. I really look forward to this dessert but lord have mercy, the mango syrup was grainy and watery. I wish I took some pictures but I didn’t even want to waste my time. I do not recommend this place to anyone.
Theres nothing special about this place and the bill for two people on a Saturday night came to be about $ 61 after tax not including tip. Their washrooms are also really dirty, there was toilet paper everywhere on the floor. I’m really disappointed with this place.

Great service but food is okay. The miso soup and green tea was was kinda warm almost cold. I ordered a la carte as I didn’t want to order all you can eat.
The décor is very modern and nice ambiance. I am not coming back! 1 star for food plus one for décor and service!
Warning! Do not use their washrooms. unkept and smelt like sewer. Can you imagine what the kitchen looks like?

Came here for a quick lunch with my girlfriend. Tje restaurant advertised a lunch special for $ 7.99 but as soon as we arrived, we were given the iPad which is used to order the «all you can eat» lunch only. This costs $ 15.99 per person, guess the $ 7.99 price advertised is to get people in, dazzle them with the dancing iPad method of ordering food and charge them double of the advertised.
Miso soup was luke warm and was missing dashi, an expensive but important ingredient in Miso Soup. The salad was cucumber and carrots only, no tomatoes.
The dynamite roll was not exactly dynamite, but the taste was not bad. I found the portions small.
The Alaska Roll & Spicy tuna roll was delicious, but the meal somehow lacked the authentic Japanese zing. It was catered more for the Canadian palate.
Okay restaurant for the price. … you get what you pay for.

One of the best in town. Very friendly staff. Clean and fast service
Fun part is you will get an iPad and keep ordering and ordering.
Will definitely come back

I don’t know what is happening in the month of June– I am getting dragged around to tons and tons of sushi restaurants.
This one is by far one of the cooler ones– IPAD to order, pictured details for every item on the menu. Smaller portions so that you are not overwhelmed.
Food was flavourful; and lots of variety.
Definately one of the better Sushi places I have been too. Place was paaaacked!

Came here for a friends bday dinner, and the interior is pretty nice. You order using iPads, this is my first time going to a iPad sushi restaurant ordering ayce. We were given around 2 hrs from the time we inputted our first order, this was per iPad per table. This restaurant offers a lot of variety in food choices, although very messy with their delivery of food because we got some dishes wayyyy after we had already ordered our desserts. We were a very large group and with that being said our foods that we wanted did not exactly come our way. We didn’t get a chance to eat half the food that we ordered, instead we got other peoples food and vice versa.
The food was your normal ayce sushi dishes, with added specialties that other sushi places may not have such as crab legs, deep fried oysters, mini sushi pizzas and different mackeral sashimis.
The service was okay, they were a bit slow for some of our dishes and it was a bit annoying to order more using the iPad but worried that it may come out a million years later. We got a lot of food, at times we got double our order that we only wanted 1 of. I can only speak for the table that I was seated at and I don’t know how the other tables with the group were like.
The restaurant itself was clean… however the washroom is gross. It was the worst that I have ever seen a washroom get, even compared to busy mall washrooms this one still takes the cake. It was nasty. It was like trying to be a ballerina and avoiding landmines.
Not a bad place to try but not sure if ordering on iPads are my thing, maybe if I came back with a much smaller group I would have a different opinion.
