Very good sushi and super friendly service. The little robot with a cat face was even polite…lol! Worth the drive from Morro Bay to get quality sushi like this. Definitely check out the rolls on the Chef’s Special menu.

This place is absolutely delicious and has been in San Luis Obispo for many years. Staff is friendly and welcoming. We are never disappointed when we go back and try a new dish. Will continue to be a customer and can’t wait to go back.

We had a great experience at Yanagi Sushi! Price is accessible, the sushi is very well served, rolls are quite big and filled in with fish. Ideal portion of rice in each roll. Sashimi is great, you have to try! At the moment they do outdoors dining, you make your order and enjoy the outdoor sitting, they will call you when is ready!

I’m thinking we’ve been spoiled to really good sushi at other locations, specifically at Toshi 2.0 in Atascadero. On this day, we were in SLO and only had an hour available for lunch, so we figured we we try a new place instead of driving all the way north. This place did not have flavors that popped out at you as we were expecting from sushi. Normally, when we eat sushi, we as a family are snatching up every piece we can eat and devouring it because it is so delicious. At this place, we were trying to eat it just not to leave it behind. We ordered 2 special rolls and fried rice. The flavor was just kind of blah, lije supermarket sushi. I was really surprised to see that there were several of these branded locations in California. I don’t intend to leave a poor review, as there was nothing wrong with the service, I just wouldn’t go back as I did not find the flavor of the food snappy, fresh and flavorful. Maybe it was an off day, but I don’t think so. My money, my choice. I’m not willing to give it a second try.

Great service, though the prices were a bit expensive. Food quality was amazing, so in the end I did not mind the extra price. Staff were courteous. Definitely going back next time we are in SLO.
