Yo! Manchester Selfridges Trafford

Thank you to Scott and klaudia for a really great sushi making class. Would recommend Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Well since we had an hour and a half to spare before my childs play session at play factore we thought we 'd go to yo sushi the queue was massive it was boiling hot in there we contemplated leaving the queue several times but this was meant to be part of her birthday treat. We kept seeing several empty seats but they were not getting filled and the queue was not moving it was a form of torture really by the time we got to the front of the queue it was time for the 2 hour play session to start and i hoped we would finally get seated soon so we could make it to the play session before it finishes. But it was still another 15-20 mins before we were seated in chairs that look like theyve seen better days. Once there it was great. I mean it was slow service if you ordered food and drink and no one explained the system to me i had to ask if the '20 ' sticker on the dome on top of the dish means its 20 quid and they finally explained no the pricing is colour coded accorded to the dish and handed me a menu which i hadnt been given before. I have anxiety it makes me anxious to not know the prices of things until its time to pay and would have preferred to pay upfront but as this wasnt possible i had to use my calculator on my phone to monitor how much it all was and to tell my child to limit herself. Then they added a service charge to the end anyway. What service? They werent seating people in time or explaining the system definitely acted like i was bugging them by asking questions all the time- at the end i literally asked 3 different employees how im meant to pay and they walked right past me without acknowledging me like i never said anything and we ended up being late to the play session due to slow service but its not a low rating because the actual food was good and id recommend. I played it safe with prawn crackers miso soup and mochi and really enjoyed it. Really like the moving conveyors. If i had been seated quickly and explained the system and it wasnt so hot it probably would have been a 5 star review from me. Also wish they had drinks like ramune my child gets it from the yo section at tesco so i assumed theyd have them in the restaurant too but they dont? Food: 5 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2

By far the worst sushi experience I have EVER had. 1) the simplest of all miso soups taste bland and watery 2) there 13.50 pound seafood ramen is made with egg noodles and not ramen. THIS IS A SIN!!! 3) sushi and sashimi portions purposely cut too thin and tiny, i have never seen such cheapskate cost saving methods 4) all seafood served here are not fresh, I wouldn't be surprised If I get food poisoning from this. EDIT: my wife did get food poisoning from this. 5) everything is overpriced for what you get. 6) sushi appears on the belt as broken most of the time. Never will I come here again. Save your money and go to wazasushi or shoryu, much nicer sushi and professionalism and respect towards Japanese cuisine. Price per person: £80–90 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
