Don't come here looking for authentic Japanese food. Maybe they are appealing to the patrons in the area? Both the purple cabbage and the potato salad that comes with the bento box is cloyingly sweet. The tempura was not executed well. It was brown because of old frying oil and the batter was too thick. I suspect the sesame chicken was not cooked to order because all the sesame seed garnish was on the platter and not a single piece adhered to the chicken. The service was prompt and attentive and the interior was clean and pleasant, but I came for the food and that was a disappointment.

First time visiting Yuzu and it did not disappoint. We were seated quickly and the customer service was great. We started with the chili garlic edamame, they were amazing. We had 3 rolls; crunchy roll, Seafood Paradise roll and the Horse Town USA Roll. They were all delicious. I highly recommend trying out this place!!!!

My wife and I visited this place when we found our favorite sushi restaurant closed for the night. We looked it up on yelp and figured let's give it a try. The customer service was outstanding. The size of the restaurant is on the smaller side but walking, in you felt welcomed And a nice selection on the menu. The sushi was a little different than what we typically ordered but we found some options and gave it a try. I don't think I ever complain about the size of sushi, but in this case, some of the rolls were huge And you needed fork and knife to complete lol. Prices were pretty average for sushi $16-$21 a roll. The bento boxes looked good but we did not try them on this trip. Maybe we will come back. Flavor was OK but nothing to write home about. We are regular customers to Crazy Brothers Sushi and that is what we compared our experience to.

Delicious and Gorgeous! This is a small restaurant in the Boot Barn complex () on the main Norco road. They have a very extensive menu with all sorts of Japanese food. We were one of the first people here when they opened for dinner, but the joint quickly filled up. The friend and I ordered: - Miso Eggplant Tempura - 2 Dinner Bentos The eggplant tempura was from a yelp recommendation, and it was really tasty. The batter was super light. The sauce that came on top was a bit sweet, but overall I think everyone should try this. With our bentos, we got miso soup, various sides (which I always love), and for our main dishes we got chicken teriyaki, chicken katsu, rainbow roll, and a spicy tuna roll. The food was homey and good (nothing special), but for the price, it is unbeatable! The service was also fast and friendly, I will be trying to come back with some other friends.

Food and service deserve 5/5 - My partner got the bento dinner box and I got the Chirashi bowl yet both came with a miso soup + salad appetizer! The crunchy roll was pretty AND tasty - I love the little tobiko mix to the tempura!! Chirashi bowl had great cuts of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, shrimp, and tamago (red snapper and white fish were okay but not favs). It is a small restaurant but we came around 6-6:15pm and had no wait on a week day. Servers are very friendly and I love the family owned vibes. No doubt, we will be coming back and making this place a regular spot!

This place truly embodies the authentic taste of izakayas in Japan. I ordered the Fuji roll. The sushi was very fresh with a savory twist. Would definitely come back to try other rolls. Also tried the yuzu lava cake. It was light and fluffy but with bursts of tangy citrus flavors. Never had yuzu flavored cake before and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend trying something other than a bento box.

We LOVE this place! Tammy and her husband (owners) are the best hosts and the food is crazy good. Try the “horse town roll”.We eat here 3-5 times a month and never get tired of it.
