Yohei Sushi Restaurant

Highly recommend! Small, old school Japanese restaurant but the food is delicious, the service is good and the ambiance is reminiscent of back in the day when your grandparents took you to eat out. Make a reservation this placed is always packed!

It's been a few years since I've been back here. I used to bring my mom here at least twice a month to eat sushi, it was one of her favorite places for sushi. She passed away some years back and since I had a visitor who wanted good sushi I made reservations for lunch on a Monday. I wondered if the ownership changed because there were a few differences from the Yohei I remembered. We both ordered soba sushi combinations. I opted for the cold soba and I was so disappointed. The key to good soba is to obtain the perfect doneness of the noodle. There needs to be an al dente chewiness to the soba. Sadly, my noodles were overcooked and soft, and the tsuyu (dipping sauce) was too dilute for my preference. The sushi came with excellent quality fish but it was the smallest sushi I've seen, pretty disappointing. My lunch guest was from Sacramento and she said that she enjoyed her meal, but I don't know if she really knows what good sushi and soba are supposed to be like. I used to really like eating sushi here and probably won't be back because there are a ton of good restaurants to choose from.

I personally like seafood tempura more than the regular tempura. The dipping sauce works well with the tempura. There's shrimp, scallop, crab, and ahi. One of the special was chicken karaage with ahi set. The tartar sauce is home made and was very good. Service is great as always. Very clean and comfortable.

Decided to try Yohei last night because my bf was craving sushi. We called around 7:45pm to see if they had a table available for us & they said yes. When we got there, the restaurant was pretty packed even though they closed at 9. The restaurant itself is small, but they can fit a good amount of people. We had to wait a little for our table, but it wasn't a problem. Once we got seated, our orders were taken within 5 minutes. I must say the service was awesome & the food came out within 10 minutes. My bf & I were definitely impressed with the service! The workers were very kind & you could tell they love working there. The food was delicious as well. I had the nabeyaki udon & my bf had one of the sushi sets. Can't wait to come back here again soon!

An absolute gem! We came by for dinner on a rainy night and just had a great experience. It seemed that everyone else here was a local and some even had their usual table and usual order known by the staff. The menu and sets felt so authentic to Japan, I was so happy. The food was just what I was hoping, great variety in each set. Staff was kind and attentive and I am so happy we got to experience this lovely mom and pop shop.

Nice quaint restaurant in an older section of town. Seems like a local favorite as it was quite busy on a weekday. There were actually 3 parties celebrating birthdays when we dined. Everyone sang Happy Birthday. We had the Chirashi Sushi Bowl and Salmon Special, which were both delicious. Service was good even with the crowd. We enjoyed a nice dinner.

Food is delicious. Good Japanese style food. Have been going there for years. Even the construction work has not detoured customers.

I was invited to dinner at Yohei Sushi Restaurant for the holidays. It is located off Dillingham Blvd. in a tiny strip mall that IMO has seen better days. The restaurant is quaint and simple! What stands out for me, since I arrived before the other guests is the welcoming and gracious staff. Service is impeccable here. Everyone at the table ordered one of their set (Teishoku) meals. I ordered the Unagi Zen Yohei Special. Everyone at the table was happy with their food. I loved what I ordered, which was prepared perfectly. The food here is in my opinion excellent. They have an extensive menu, a sushi bar and alsoserve alcohol. I heard from friends they are opening another branch in the Ku'ono Marketplace across Kahala Mall. Looking forward to dining at their new location. Highly recommend! Posting a photo of my meal.

I cannot believe I only tried Yohei Sushi Restaurant recently because it's my new favorite place for lunch. I'm sure dinner is just as good but I went for lunch and LOVED everything! I tried the maguro natto don, zaru soba, ika sashimi, and some other nigiri sushi. My maguro natto don was so fresh and delicious. It was also only $18 and a very good size. Everything was so fresh and reasonably priced. Service there is also exceptional. The waitresses are sweet, attentive, and very polite. I cannot wait to go back already and I just went last week! It's a small place but the waitress said they take reservations. We did a walk in on a Monday for lunch and it was about half filled so no wait for us thankfully. I'll definitely be back!

Food was decent, 90's style local Japanese food. Servers were nice and please, but I guess they were busy so the general service was slow.
