Easily the best sushi restaurant on the island, a pleasant and happy surprise!!…read more This family owned sushi restaurant is wonderfully run, the food is amazing and the service phenomenal. We tried Yumi for the first time on Friday for my folks anniversary and we were not disappointed. We ordered 5 different Maki Rolls, tempura prawns, seaweed salad, gyozas (which were out of this world incredible) and spring rolls. It was a feast of divine food. And the owners kept the it cool on a ridiculous bus Friday night with orders and non-stop phone calls. A HUGE THANK YOU YAMI! We are already planning our next visit!!!

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE In the food desert that is southern…read moreCordova Bay...Haro Sushi is like an oasis. The Korean proprietors offer primarily sushi and few Korean options when looking for something a little different than the Western cuisine options nearby / down the road. And you won't be disappointed either - recommended for friends; I'm definitely returning when I can also! === 2. FOOD The bento box may be the best value on the menu. We happened to choose a number of items for takeout this evening: - California Roll ($6.50) - Haro Roll ($18.50) - Pork Gyoza ($7) - Maki Combo ($18) - Dynamite Combo ($18) - Salmon Sashimi ($15) - Chicken Udon ($13.99) - Kimbob Roll ($8.50) - Japchae The only thing I might think about before ordering again would be the udon: see my picture, so it wasn't bad but it was unusual how they did the soup and they put red peppers in there, which is unusual... === 3. SERVICE Service over the phone and in person were great in English; they staff speak to each other in Korean and I can only presume service would have been just fine for Korean-speaking patrons. The food was also prepared reasonably quick. === 4. ENVIRONMENT So it's plain white inside - a clean white. There is bar-style seating at the front window and a few small tables meant for groups of 2 or 4 inside. Wheelchairs and baby strollers should have no challenges fitting and the parking is as plentiful as it gets in the this relatively-new residential shopping complex.

The servers are always trying to get you in and out fast, don't smile, unfriendly and just rude. The ambiance is ok, the seating by the bathroom is a big red flag.

As someone who tries many different sushi places in smaller towns and cities, I am usually disappointed by the toro (which is usually just tuna not toro) and the lack hotate and uni on the menu. Here, the sushi was delicious enough that it pulled me in for another plate of toro sashimi. Service was really great too. I inquired about a dish after it was served and the waiter noticed the issue and did not hesitate to go beyond my expectations to make up for the error. A lot of negative reviews mentioning the AYCE. My suggestion is to not eat "all you can eat" for Japanese food.

Several people with reservations arrived and were turned away. The restaurant felt very poorly managed. Not a good experience. We won't be back.

They said to arrive at 7:10 to pick up our order which was over 40 minutes from the time we called. We showed up at 7:10 had to wait until 725, so almost an hour for them to make a take-out order. When we pick the order up they informed us that they only had half of the sushi rolls we ordered because they had "run out of rice". How can a Japanese restaurant run out of rice at 7 PM? I would understand it if it was two in the morning but at 7:00 it's totally ridiculous. Will not go back.

There's not much for room to dine-in (just the space along the window), and by no means is this a fancy or even relaxing space. So I would suggest take out being the best option. I'm sure in warmer months, the walk down to the warf with your sushi would be wonderful for a picnic. Being new to this restaurant, I appreciated the large menu photos of the different rolls & the extra info the cashier provided on items I wasn't familiar with on the choices for the rolls. I grabbed 3 different rolls & all were of good size. I enjoyed them as my reward for finally getting out of the house after several days of snow. There's plenty of parking behind the restaurant & mini grocery store. even a ramp up to the deck area from the parking lot. However, you must be able to do some stairs to actually get into the restaurant. Overall, a decent choice for something quick to go.
