food was overcooked and sushi rolls are small and not worth the price, the grocery store sushi is better. The server was good but seemed slow when the restaurant wasn't busy.

Last two times we have been there not good. NOODLES BEEF LOMAIN TOUGH. Sushi mosly rice and not made with all the ingredients. Times before these pretty good. Sushi had no taste.
My favorite sushi and his favorite ramen in town! We absolutely love this place. We’ve been loyal customers for a while now and it’s never disappointed. They did our rehearsal dinner three years ago and it was perfect

BLUF: Above average priced for below average sushi. Will not return.
DETAILS: This was our 2nd or 3rd time here, unfortunately. Location and distance is my enemy - I need to be disciplined enough to not let convenience overcome my and my family’s craving for sushi. There are so many other better options. Overall, it’s terrible quality sushi, esp for what you pay. I blame myself for returning here, foolishly expecting it to be better this time around. The fact that it’s conveniently located at a busy shopping area, with Whole Foods next to it - that’s why ended up going back. Never again. Finally writing a review.
Rice, the key ingredient in all sushi, is overcooked, mushy and bland. Enough said there.
We sat at the bar, only to observe the sushi “chef” make a rainbow roll with precut and pre-wrapped fish. I kid you not, this was the first I’ve seen a rainbow roll made this way. And I’ve seen and eaten a LOT of sushi. With it being my favorite food, this was utterly inexcusable… having it done this way to merely safe time or prep. This is an insult to sushi and sushi lovers.
Son ordered the ramen to accompany the meal - it was okay albeit a bit bland. For $18 a bowl, we were surprised to find out it didn’t even come with the staple egg. Chili sauce was extra $, I kid you not.
I don’t mind paying high for good sushi. We do that often. Emphasis on the good (if not great) part. This was not that. Far from it.
Our waiter was the best part of our meal. He was engaging and attentive and not overbearing. However, he doesn’t control how the kitchen and sushi team cuts corners and gives a bad imitation of the iconic Japanese food.
Will not return. No photos necessary to accompany this review.

I recently gave up on Yokozuna after visiting the downtown location. I couldn't put my finger on exactly what killed the vibe there, but I immediately felt it in my body when we sat down. Negativity and bad energy just filled the space. Today I happened to be in the vicinity of the South Tulsa location and stopped in. To say the 2 are the same restaurant is comical. This place had a beautiful open feel. The staff were joyful, it was tangible. The positive vibes refreshed me. Food seems to be prepared a little more thoughtfully as well. The staff smiles and care in their work were not forced. They enjoyed being there. I'm saying that if the two places are run by 2 separate managers, please fire Downtown & hire South to run both. They ARE NOT the same. My entire empath body was so grateful & pleased today. You've regained a customer, just in South Tulsa Lol. Food YES. Vibe YES. Staff Yes. Openness/Kindness/Energetic Output YES. Thank you!!!!

Always a terrific meal. There are multiple half price rolls from 3 to 5 for happy hour. This is yet another fine restaurant from the Macnellies group. Fuji used to be my favorite sushi place in town, with them closed it's now Yokozuna.

Everything we ordered here tasted delicious. The food quality was impeccable, and the service was great. We ordered veggie fried rice, sweet potatoes tempura , and tempura shrimp rolls. Everything was excellent.
