Food is okay at best. My mother is allergic to most menu items, so planned on not getting the all-you-can-eat. Accordingly they would only allow me that option if she moved to a different table. Don’t go if not everyone plans on getting all you can eat and the food isn’t worth it anyways.

Such a good AYCE sushi in SF, the restaurant is clean and the service is extremely fast, there are options for picky eaters who don’t eat fish :) the fish is fresh and all the rolls and sashimi we tried was great! We liked every dish we got.

We got seated really quickly on Sunday, even though it was peak dinner hour. We went with the all-you-can-eat option, but they also offer a la carte if you prefer. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting such high-quality sushi from an all you can eat place and not just the sushi, everything we ordered was delicious (karaage, tonkatsu, etc.). You can order anything from the full menu, not just sushi, which was a nice surprise. The service was impressively fast — once we submitted our order on the tablet, the food started coming out within minutes. I’d definitely bring some friends back to enjoy this experience again!

We had high expectations because of all the positive reviews. Unfortunately, Yoki Sushi was a major disappointment for us. Despite the hype, our experience was far from enjoyable.
First off, parking was a nightmare. We spent over 30 mins circling the area to find parking, and we had to park on the street four blocks away on a rainy evening. We arrived just 15 minutes after they opened and the wait list was already long. We ended up waiting more than an hour and a half just to be seated. The waiting area is tiny and couldn’t accommodate the number of customers waiting, making the wait even more uncomfortable.
The menu was hit or miss—some dishes were very good, but some were average or even subpar. The service was slow, our food arrived cold, including the soup. The tablet used for ordering was also malfunctioning. To make matters worse, the service was terrible. The servers were unfriendly and rude, and I even found myself in an argument with one of them, which has never happened to me before. The only positive about the staff was the manager, who was very nice.
Overall the food is decent, but not worth the hype. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning.

EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD IDK WHAT ELSE TO SAY!!! we came on a saturday night and was lucky to get a table after like 10-15 mins. atmosphere was alright but food was great. 2 of us ordered like 40 nigiris and 5 rolls and were so full after. you have to wait 10 mins before you order more nigiris and there is a 90-min time limit but it's not a big deal at all. totally recommend!!!

Was my neighborhood fave but now it's an all you can eat bar where you have to get there early to put yourself on the wait list and then have to wait for the first group of folks to eat all they can eat before you get a seat.(no sign to let people know just figure it out, no thoughtfulness for their regular customers, I hope the food is as good as before or I'll be really disappointed). After waiting in line for 30 minutes only to find out I had to get on a waiting list inside so I could be told they're were 16 people before me and the place was already full kinda turns me off. Since I loved this place before they went "all you can eat" I'll give them one more try and report back. Right now I'm super hangry. But looking at another recent reviewer I'm having second thoughts and might not go back so I can just remember how they were before when they were still my favorite.
We came at Thursday dinner at 7pm for 2 people and luckily were seated as soon as we entered (2 tables of 6 people on the waitlist). We got the $40 AYCE and ordered the takowasa (wasabi octopus), a bunch of nigiri, 2 rolls (1 special, 1 torched), miso soup, and chirashi for our 1st order, and continued by ordering almost 5 more times (mostly got bluefin tuna and yellowtail nigiri) totally almost 34 items! The fish quality was better than expected! The first few orders of nigir were definitely higher quality, but the sashimi/nigiri was surprisingly decent for a $40 AYCE. The service was great, too, with small nigiri orders coming out in <3 min and big nigiri orders coming within 8 min - plus, they bring out the other items like soup and rolls whenever they are ready (usually within 5-15 min). Would gatekeep 😜 and come again!

good food and amazing experience! what I liked about this place is that you can order the food off a tablet whenever throughout the eating process, it saves when constantly ordering food and trying to flag down a waitress to get your order! After ordering food turn out for food is really quick! service was fast and waitress were kind and were on top of finished dishes/plates! overall really satisfied with this place!
You can tell that the quality has significantly fell off since influencers have posted about this place just 1 month ago. Almost every piece of nigiri was a half a slice slapped onto a ball of rice. The rice is also a bit cold and some of the fish like the albacore are freezing cold and grainy. Not sure if they are cutting costs or they hired a lot of inexperienced chefs. Service is good and the wait is about 1hr on a Friday night.

I went there for 90-min AYCE sushi. Wait was 30min at 6pm on a Friday. Premium option was sold out by then. + Low price for what you're offered + Large variety of apps/sides and rolls = Hot apps came out lukewarm = Slow service, but AYCE is relatively new = Small indoor waiting area - Nigiri was not the freshest (salmon was flat, scallop was fishy) - Carpaccio was thick and not very seasoned

I went in today the website says you guys are open. Made eye contact with one of the ladies behind the counter that could have told me that your hours had changed. I had to asked if you were open and instead of her answering my question she directed someone else to answer my question. Very rude and unnecessarily!

I had an amazing dining experience. The sushi rolls were absolutely delicious—each bite was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The variety on the menu was impressive, catering to both traditional and creative sushi lovers.
Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. The ambiance was also inviting, making it an ideal place for both casual dinners and special occasions.
Highly recommended for sushi lovers—I’ll definitely be coming back!
All you can eat was a great value
