| - This was our third visit to Yuki Restaurant, and we were expecting good food and decent service, which is what we'd experienced before.
Instead, what we got was fish that actually smelled fishy, and looked visibly stale, like it had been sitting out. We ordered a plate of mixed sushi and maki rolls, and another plate of mixed sashimi. It seemed as though some fresh fish had been mixed with stale fish, maybe to try to get rid of the old one. There were cuts of salmon that were perfectly fresh, and cuts of salmon that looked crusted almost from sitting out - these bad pieces had a definite fishy odour to them. We were also unable to eat the tuna and two other kinds of fish (I'm not sure what the names are), as they were also fishy and not at all fresh. My mother ate a shrimp that was obviously bad. It smelled terrible!
All in all, we ate less than half of our meal - only the cuts of fish that actually looked like normal, fresh fish. We mentioned it to the waitress when she asked how everything was and she immediately told us that they only serve fresh fish, and that their food could not possibly be bad. She didn't smell the fish, and frankly, she barely glanced at it when we tried to point out that it looked terrible. We were not rude at all and didn't request that our meal is free, but again, told her that we had been there before and never had a problem with the food before.
The waitress went to speak to the chef on staff, and came back to tell us that the chef said their fish is very fresh!
We were very, very disappointed. No one other than the waitress came to speak to us, and all the waitress kept saying is that their fish is always fresh. My mother and I are both sushi lovers, and have been to many sushi restaurants around the city. We are not expecting stellar service every time, but we don't appreciate being lied to and wasting our money on food we cannot even eat.
Be very careful with this restaurant. We left wondering if we made a mistake trying to even eat part of our meal, in case it was all bad fish.
We won't be visiting Yuki restaurant again.
