Frequent yo sushi across UK but today?s experience was by far the worst encounter in any restaurant I?ve been to. The most basic interaction with staff came across as though I was asking them to discuss foreign policy issues. 1.) sitting us by the window although entire restaurant was empty. This was obviously strategic so people walking outside would think the restaurant is busy 2) Despite us stating that we frequent yo sushi regularly, bald Asian man gave us a lesson on the conveyor belts 3) Bald man said the only way to order is to pick off of the belts when in reality, you can order through your server 4) Asked for coke with ice, bald Asian man said ?I?ll have to check if we have ice? - which restaurant doesn?t have ice?! And why does it have to escalate to open discussion amongst colleagues if you have ice? If im honest, this experience ruined my day. The food was below average too. It?s absolutely appalling to have been treated like we?re stupid.

Only thing that was nice was the food. The staff were blunt, we had to ask multiple times to get cutlery or to be served, One meal was forgotten and only brought out after we told staff to which they replied ?oh you?re waiting on more??. Felt very disappointed afterwards as I was hoping for a nice meal out with my family, which we didn?t get.

Booked table for family of 5. Had to wait at till area and was ignored by staff.
Food was average and Katsu curry was nearly £20! Way overpriced for what it was - for context same curry at Wasabi is £9!
Staff were lethargic and plates were messy when served to us.
Is it worth the £115 I paid today - Nope! Please avoid!

Food quality is average compared to most other sushi places who do better. I got disgusted seeing staff cleaning the bar area and spraying also the food on the belt. I addressed this but was told the food has plastic cover. I told them that these plate covers have holes on top which means cleaning material will come on food. After this comment staff just walked away. For me this is a reason NOT to come to this place again. Just for reference I went today Saturday 11th January around 14:45.

Made a lunch reservation yesterday for family of 4. Food was great. However it was terrible service. Clearly short staffed. Customers waiting at entrance for a very long time and not being acknowledged by staff members (just say we are busy and be with you in a moment - it?s not hard - and it was not busy). Tables not being cleared. Extremely dirty floors under tables. Had to kick the kick the chop sticks and old food under the seat to prevent my children stepping on them. Door left open constantly in freezing conditions so we all sat in our hats and jackets. No check back given on food. Only offered one drink at the start. The staff were polite and these issues are down to poor management.

Food is good, service is mainly self select though you can order hot food. I felt a lack of atmosphere.

Really not good. Went in for lunch on a Sunday. Started with the carousel plates - the edamame tasted like it had been left in the fridge too long and was inedible. My daughter ordered a chicken katsu - it was hot and pretty tasty. I ordered beef teriyaki which didn't arrive until I spoke to our server as had been waiting quite a while. When it did arrive, the taste of burnt beef was overwhelming - also inedible. We had a cotton candy cheesecake, which also tasted like it had been left in the fridge. I didn't dare eat any sushi. We were seated next to a stack of white bowls that were absolutely filthy like food had been splashed over them and opposite the sink with a filthy clear splashback - watching kitchen equipment not being washed properly. It was really really disappointing. Fortunately, our server deducted the beef and edamame after I complained. Will not return. £60 for two people in total in the end.

Back after a while, city centre and all restaurants super busy with Christmas crowd, Yo didn?t have a Q so popped in for a quick bite. Has really gone down, service was iffy ? food expensive for passable food. Ate mostly from the carousel + ordered seafood ramen which was missing the egg (they ran out of eggs!! At 1PM!) over spiced / salty. Very disappointing - 75 quid for 2 with only tap water and 7 plates! won?t be back.
Vegetarian options: Is a sushi restaurant so choice is limited, the items on the belt don?t tell you what it is, so suggest order from menu which has some veggie selection. I wouldn?t go there for vegetarian meal, but vegetarians in a larger group won?t go hungry!
Parking: CMk parking
Kid-friendliness: Lots of families around, a few tables mostly bar stools
Wheelchair accessibility: Looks wheelchair friendly with accessible toilet

We were sat at the sushi bar over looking kitchen one chef kept touching raw breaded chicken without gloves and then touched corn on the cob put it in the water and when done fetched it out with the same unwashed hand rice cookers on the floor dirty beer dispensing machine if you want staphylococcus then come here we left shortly after seeing this

Music too loud, server too quiet. A box of chopped spring onions left out and uncovered by the belt where there were two girls flicking their hair. Food ordered but wrong thing brought and then charged for the wrong thing, my husband POINTED to the thing he wanted because the server couldn't hear him due to the music being so loud, but still the wrong food was brought, no apology, no offer to fix it.
Shocking.

We came for the bottomless belt deal on Thursday evening, and overall were left feeling disappointed with it.
When we sat down there was a lot of selection and variety on the belt, and we were initially hopeful, however after about 15-20 mins, it was clear that all the variety had been picked up by us and the others dining, and the only thing left was about 3 dishes on rotation that nobody wanted. There was no restocking of the things that had been eaten at all.
We had to ask for wasabi and ginger because there wasn't any provided, which is odd as they are a staple of sushi, and we didn't realise we could order hot dishes (but couldn't order cold belt dishes!) until about 15 minutes before our hour was up.
Dessert was also weird where there was some variety early on in the first 10 minutes, and then nothing after. We had to ask a waiter, who then asked the chef to put some desserts out, who seemed less than pleased at the thought of actually having to prepare some food for the diners.
Overall I don't think we're coming back to do it again, Sushimania does bottomless sushi for cheaper, with better variety, and a friendlier atmosphere. There's no selling points to put this above it at all.

I usually love this place but the service was in total breakdown this Sunday afternoon. Half the restaurant empty, yet a 20 minute wait to be seated and a long queue.
We braved it and went back... This time I had finished my Teriyaki whilst my wife had to wait another 20 minutes for her hot food as it was stuck behind a load of Deliveroo orders.
Seems that things are not much better.
The call buttons are gone, as is the Kirin beer! It was also £70 for lunch for two.

The menu offers a great variety, from yakisoba to sashimi, catering to all tastes. It's an ideal spot for anyone new to Japanese cuisine or for those looking to enjoy authentic dishes. You won't be disappointed by the high quality of the food. Definitely worth a visit!

First time trying out the conveyer belt. It was great excitement for the kids. We really enjoyed varieties of sushi, overall great experience
