   Food was excellent, service was inattentive despite having very few people in the restaurant; ambience was really disappointing...feels very sterile and industrial and poorly decorated.

   Great place! Definitely a casual environment, just a heads up.

   The food was delicious and service was excellent. We had crispy gyoza and yam-wrapped tofu as appetizers and 2 sushi rolls as our entrees. The flavor combinations were extraordinary. Highly recommend.

   Excellent dinner as usual, highly recommend! We had the brussels sprouts, garlic edamame, and because it was cold out, hot sake and ramen (1 of us had the Classic, 2 of us had the Triple Tomato - watch out for the add-ons, they are spicy!)

   Funny, but I couldn’t find the front door.🤣 The restaurant layout was interesting. The decor was nice and bright. We sat at the bar but I would choose a table next time. We were impressed with almost all of the dishes we ordered~ especially the vegan gyoza and bao. Wow! I’m craving both of them. Looking forward to my next visit to Yasai!

   As always, the food is just phenomenal. Service was excellent. The rolls (vegan) are pricy, but well worth it. Wish the place was a little more fancy inside, but, all in all, still no worries, because the rolls are so darn good. Keep up the good work!
