    My sister was visiting so I booked reservations at Yohei for dinner. Got there a little early so had to wait a bit. Once seated, service was quick & efficient. The seven of us had a variety of teishoku & a donburi with tea & a couple of beers. The food was great. The tempura is the best we’ve had.

    Some times their waitresses get too busy and make mistakes. Our Sushi was delivered to the next table sat there for a long while no one said anything, then they brought it to our table. I should have sent it back...not kool

    Long time favorite restaurant. The staff treats you with the highest level of care. Food is consistently high quality. Construction on Dillingham makes it harder to get here, but it is worth it! From town, take King (or the freeway) to Houghtailing/Waikamilo Rd, and then take a short backtrack on Dillingham to Yohei.

    First time here, the servers were seasoned aunties but worked quickly - this impressed me. Food was good and presentable with 3 sushi chef working. The place was a little tight with tables close to each other; it was challenging to hold a private conversation due to the noise from other patrons. Our experience was acceptable enough that we would come back again.

    We had an excellent business lunch with nice attentive service & tasty food! Everyone enjoyed the experience, including some first time customers. Tempura was nice & crispy, and serving & presentation on the maguro natto don was beautifully arranged, ample & a good value. Construction in the area is a disservice, but worth going. Looking forward to the Kahala location.

    A great neighborhood Japanese restaurant that excels in the freshest fish from Japan. If you want a little bit of Japan, Yohei Sushi is the place to go.

    Service is always top notch. As soon as we sat down the waitress came over to tell us that there was kne special left to make sure we got it before someone else ordered it. As I typically eat the specials at restaurants I appreciated the effort. The meal was very filling. Something I rarely say when eating at a Japanese restaurant.

    Yohei Sushi is a great place to get authentic fresh sushi. The quality of the food and service is excellent. We had the sushi deluxe platter which came with a good variety of nigiri sushi's including Toro, Unit and fatty salmon along with other very fresh and tasty fish. Also had the miso butterfish which was cooked well, where the fish was still soft and moist. The servers all from Japan were very attentive and took the time to explain the various types of fish used for the sushi. The restaurant, is very plain and simple, but you get excellent value as the sushi was excellent for a reasonable price. Will definitely be back and recommend to friends.

    We ordered all different menus (Sushi Zen, Tokujo Nigiri, Nigiri, and the Sashimi & Tempura Teishoku) for lunch and all dishes were presented nicely, freshly served with a smile, and most importantly tasted great. Our family has been going to the restaurant for decades when the original owner stood behind the sushi counter and we felt that this was one of their best yet.

    Great food but service was inconsistent for valentine’s prix fixe meal. For example the table next to us was given a “palate cleanser” bite between a course and we did not get a similar offer. Also, while our utensils were placed directly on the place mat, the identical table next to us was propped up so they chopsticks, knife blade, fork tines and spoon head did not contact the table surface directly. The bar server also seemed hurried and flustered delivering the wine pairings.
