Yo! Sushi - Baker Street

Being in London, I was looking to try different cuisines and many streets were showing Sushi offerings. So this was my first time trying out the Japanese Cuisine. Although I did not have high hopes, I will not say that I was disappointed in the end. I liked the sushi we had and I can definitely try it again. Passing by Baker street, I entered the Yo! Sushi restaurant. They have a cool food belt like a moving walkway which runs along the entire restaurant. Once ordered, the food is placed on that belt and you can pick that up when it passes by your table. The ordering experience was not very great as there were only 2 people serving to about 7-8 tables. They were pretty slow and most of the times, only one of them was available. This being the first time I was having Sushi, it was pretty difficult for me to select the dish I wanted to have. I can't exactly remember the names of the dishes I had, but whatever I had were good and I'd want to stop by again sometime. The icing on the cake for me was that they have a completely separate Vegetarian menu which eases the selection for a vegetarian to a great extent. Kudos to the thought behind this this. Although, the ordering experience was not very great, my table was near to the lady preparing the sushi and she helped me understand the authenticity of it and also helped me order. P.S. They also offer a student discount.

A little expensive but it reminds me of Okinawa, the sushi bars. There it is much cheaper, but for the experience, it is worth the visit. Everything was delicious. Try the Malted Mango Pot for dessert! Prices: plates from the line range from £2.30 - £6.40. You can also order from the menu. Tea is £1.90 and unlimited. On Monday, more than 44 dishes are only £2.90 a plate. You do wait for seating (very fast service) and the service is friendly. Update: Today I thought I had ordered from this restaurant, but cane to find out I had ordered instead from the one on Oxford. Instead of just ushering me out, he kindly gave me directions, explaining both the slow and fast way to get there. But, after hearing I live on this street and don't have my Oyster card with me, Baker Street Yo! Sushi honored my order!!! What amazing service! Further, he offered me seating and gave me a drink of my choice on the house, as I waited for them to fill my order. I am very grateful and I am glad I am loyal to the restaurants I frequent. Thank you, Robert!

I had an excellent time at YO! Sushi. The food was great, the ability to get water when I wanted was brilliant and the service was excellent. My favorite dish was the battered prawns and pork. The staff were incredibly friendly (I know this because we had a chat with one of them when we were paying) and the place looks beautiful. I think this is one of the GREATEST restaurants in the world and I recommend it to people who love or wanna try sushi.
