Really enjoyable experience with high-quality fish and phenomenal service. There are a limited number of places that get the sushi counter experience and atmosphere right. The staff were really friendly and there was a great sake selection.

The oden is quite better than other ones I tried in US, really worth to have a try. Tempura is the best! Highly recommend! But only for the vegetable ones with rice. The sauce is very good balance the oil and taste. Eggplant is the best! The shrimp is just fine.

This is one of the few places in the city that truly feels like you're eating at an izakaya in Japan. L

Best Sushi restaurant for couples/Japanese food lovers...their specials come straight from Japan, are always unique, fresh and delicious!
Phillip
Overpriced for the quality and quantity of food given, however ambience and seating was very nice, and service was good. For the price we paid, you can find omakase that will feed you more.

We got the kaizeki which included a variety of dishes from shirako to conch to wagyu beef. I would say that if you love very traditional Japanese food, and the flavor of dashi, then you would love this. For us, some of the dishes were outside our palate range. The highlight was that sashimi and sushi - super high quality and unique fish (eg New York trout and a full shrimp). The atmosphere and service was lovely.

Food was very good and loved the ambience. Portions definitely on the smaller end so it was a bit pricey

Incredible food and experience. The traditional tatami seating with the shoes off was such a nice thing to experience and best of all was the incredible service we received from our waiter Pat. I can’t wait come again

outstanding meal and sake selection. thank you chef Miura and the entire Yopparai team for making our night so special.
We went here with kids and they are fascinated with how the aesthetic of the food, it made them want to try something different (not just mac n cheese 😂).

Excellent dining experience. Pricey but great food and excellent ambiance. Get a reservation in order to get a tatami mat booth otherwise you have to sit at the bar.

One uni cut into 5 slices... Where are the gold flakes?!? The $62 Yopparai Special Chirashi isn’t worth it. 5/10 It contains very little fish (mostly cheap, lean tuna and salmon) and only a small amount of uni. I’d pay a maximum of $32 for this. A photo from two years ago showed a much more generous portion of fish. I wouldn’t recommend coming here: the recession has clearly hit this place, and the dining room is uncomfortably warm. Also, avoid the $35 Pork Belly Hot Pot had 6 thin slices of pork, and the broth had no salt. 2/10
