I notified the boss that works there about a employee that works there the name by Nery Lopez but real name is Romero, Ramirez using two fake ssi Id using some else ssi number and he still working there how is this possible and they should be looking in to it and I have the proof
Yosaku never disappoints. We were seated at the sushi bar for an early dinner on the weekend- usually we would recommend getting a reservation here as the wait can get long! The sushi chefs are great, answered questions and were very friendly with us. We received a complimentary little amuse-bouche appetizer from the sushi chef at our end of the bar. One in our party got the hot niku soba which was delicious, very fragrant and warming. I got the maguro tataki special which was prepared perfectly, and two rolls which were very fresh and yummy. Absolutely recommend this place for fresh food and amazing service.

If there is a gateway to heaven to be found in Portland, Maine, it may well be discovered between the chopsticks at Yosaku. The quality is consistently excellent, service fast and friendly and I haven’t once left dissatisfied. I highly endorse the lunch specials!

I made a reservation to celebrate a special occasion with my daughters. However, when we arrived on time, we found a line of people waiting outside in the cold to be seated. To our surprise, we couldn’t get the table we had reserved! The staff, including the waitress, claimed it was a "first come, first served" policy. It seems they don’t understand the meaning of a “reservation.” What’s the point of making a reservation if anyone who walks in can take the table? Needless to say, I’ll be crossing this restaurant off my list of places for special occasions until they consult a dictionary and learn the true meaning of "reservation."
Well done, Yosaku, in ruining our special occasion.

Staying in Portland for a few days at the Holiday inn. It was a short walk to your wonderful restaurant. I had a friendly greeting and sat at a nice small comfortable table. My server was great and easy to work with. I started with a refreshing Kirin draft beer. I then had a nice cup of miso soup and then some porky pork dumplings. My main entree was the Charpie shut out roll. Well this was one of the best rolls I ever ate. Everything worked so well together. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone and would definitely return.
Affordable and delicious lunch
Best sushi in the city! I go here once a week for their lunch time sushi special. 3 rolls and soup for $10! Updated for 2024, not $10 anymore, but still inexpensive and well worth it.

Our main course took over an hour to come out, and in that time our server didn't once come over to check on us/offer drinks/explain that the kitchen was backed up. We got to a point where we thought he might not have heard us order it. I understand ticket times get high, but you've gotta acknowledge the wait to your tables.
