In the photo I ordered a Crunch Crab Roll and Fried California Roll. The Crunchy Crab Roll we probably one of (if not the best) crunchy crab rolls I have eaten. BOMB! 100% recommend. The second roll I believe got mistaken for the tempura roll as it has tempura pieces inside and next to the roll. It was really good still! Next time I hope to try to fried california roll. Lastly, my friend got a chicken teriyaki bento box. The chicken was very well seasoned and soft. Totally recommend as well for their fair pricing! Service was quick and kinda staff. read more

Very good sushi, very pleasant people and a nice variety of sake & beer as well. Feels homey and just a nice place to go if you're in the mood for some good sushi. read more

Decent sushi. Nigiri is tasty and fresh with nice plating. However, the House salad is watery and a bit disappointing. Overall, this is a nice place for sushi, but you are paying for the prime tourism place. Overpriced for what you actually get on the plate. read more

I been to multiple sushi places and this honestly the worst one. Sushi rice is cold, it literally taste like the one I bought from grocery store read more

This place actually has a mix of Korean, Chinese, and Japanese cuisine. My family and I weee only in for the one meal, so I can't speak to everything on the menu, but I can recommend the udon noodles. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the broth was light and tasty (something both my mom and I really appreciated as we were both suffering from car sickness/altitude sickness). read more

Great customer service and great food. Feels homey and everything was very tasty. Definitely one of my favorite spots to stop by after a long hike. read more

Great find! Really enjoyed dinner here so much that we came two nights in a row! I've never had Katsudon with teriyaki sauce on top but it worked and tasted great! The highlight though was the Seafood Chanpone that my wife ordered! The ambiance is simple but the owners are Korean and were wonderful hosts! I might come back to Yosemite just to eat here again! Especially the Chanpone! read more

It's a family ran establishments. You are greeted when walking in but slowly realize you'll be waiting for someone to help you out. Now once you do you'll probably wait a bit but lets get to the food. Food feels home made got a phili-roll, miso ramen & a bulgogi plate. Now the taste was okay tasted home made ( the ramen) now the phili felt home made as well but with less salmon (haha) now lets get to the Bulgogi plate.....NEVER got it... haha. And the Owner still tried to charge me :( Note: make sure to check your check. Will I go here again. No :( read more

Personally I think it's 3.75 / 5 A nice friendly place to grab some comfort and familiar East Asian food after a long day of trip. I love my salmon poke bowl, it's light yet flavorful, I'm not sure what is the sauce for my poke bowl, definitely not spicy mayo, but I love it, sort of vinegary, brings out my appetite. It also comes with a miso soup, I love it! Spring rolls are hard to go wrong, be careful with the hot stuffing. Also if you don't like or not sure about eel sauce, do mention that beforehand. Tempura rolls are a bit dry for the rice, there are drizzled with eel sauce, if you're strict vegetarian or you're not sure what eel sauce is, may as well ask for sauce on the side. read more

Various types of food to choose from. Service isn't bad but could be friendlier. The sushi is great, we ordered the special plate. Udon was good but the rice plate we ordered were either a bit salty or too sweet. The receipt was hand written, having a hard time reading it. I don't know how much the tax was because it wasn't stated. It just "tax+18% tip". What really good was their hot tea. read more

This a beautifully quaint, family owned restaurant near Yosemite. Polite service and nice presentation of the rolls. Sorry, no picture because we were breaking our fast during Ramadan and we inhaled the food. If you're a sushi snob, temper your expectations - it's good! read more

Ordered the combo a , udon, rainbow roll, pink roll and the agedashi tofu . Staff got our food out fairly fast and our waitress was very sweet. Got asked multiple times if everything was OK. Food it fairly average, im from orange county and we have a lot of amazing japanese restaurants so it seems unfair to compare a place so secluded to that. I thought the nigiri and the udon the best items we had. The sauces for the tempura and agedashi were fairly plain and could use more sodium and sugar . Overall not bad ,just nothing I'd rave about . read more

My family and I went to eat there yesterday night. My daughter was craving sushi while we were camping. The staff were so friendly and the food was absolutely amazing. I had to the teriyaki salmon and my kids had sushi rolls not sure the names of the rolls. I definitely will be going back read more

The food was disappointing especially when it was expensive. Ordered ramen and was just noodles and miso broth. No meat, egg and great veggies. There were a couple of onions and sprouts. Terrible green tea was $3.00 a cup. It was steaming hot when we can in and we had to ask them to put on AC. Owner gave us a stare when he went to thermostat and I could see it was 82 read more

We totally recommend tourists should try eating at Kyoto Kafe, it the best we ever eat for a long time, the food so authentic and fresh like homemade, we first time visiting we come back again, it's small but the food comes out very quick and very tasty read more

Super generous portions and really reasonable prices! I loved the spicy seafood noodle soup, and both the Yosemite Roll and Rainbow Roll were amazing. I will definitely come back :) read more

Came in yesterday night after a fun filled day at Yosemite, had dinner her with a few friends. My impression of this sushi restaurant is not good at all. Food was not great, the rice for the rolls and bento box taste and felt stale. The service was not up to par. Avoid this place if possible read more

Just had lunch here and it was amazing. I live in the area and most of the restaurants are middle of the road, I love sushi and Japanese food and usually order a lot , I ordered a very similar spread as I do in the city, and the quality of food was better and the price was about half of what I usually spend. Seems like a family business., definitely a five star gem. read more

Searched for Asian food after a weekend in Yosemite and we ended up here. We had a large group and the owner apologized that they might not be able to get us food in a timely manner or proper service but we let them know that we wouldn't mind! They seemed understaffed and was probably expecting a slow day. They were kind enough to accommodate so we have no complaints there. This place has a medley of different selections! Mostly Japanese, but some Korean. It's crazy how they maintain such a large menu. The rolls are cheaper than usual Japanese restaurants. They did the job, and their rice didn't fall apart easily which is always a plus! Their bulgogi was probably my favorite along with their udon. My only complaint is probably that the katsu in my katsudon was sadly very firm. It sort of felt like I was biting into rubber. My experience would've been perfect if it wasn't for that. Nonetheless this place deserves more traffic! read more

Food was good but they server accidentally brought us out a plate of egg rolls and we didn't order them so we assumed they came w our roll, then 10 mins later we ate 2 already and the girl comes back and asks "did you order egg roll?" And we said "oh no sorry they brought them we thought they came w everything" & she goes "oh noooo , but you eat" and proceeds to pick the plate up .... TOUCH THE 2 LEFT , confused and puts the plate back down ??!!! AND THEN THEY CHARGED US !!!! We didn't even fuss we left . Don't come here read more

Came for the Yosemite marathon and felt like ramen soup. This place has great service ! Family owned and operated with good food. Miso ramen was a hit, and bento boxes well served. Would come back when I visit oakhurst again. read more

I had posted a really good review of this place earlier this morning for the great service my fiancé and I had last night at this restaurant. However when we went back today, I couldn't say it was enjoyable. My fiancé and I got some food at Trader Joe's and wanted a little spicy mayo and soy sauce for our lunch. This restaurant would not sell us spicy mayo or soy sauce if we didn't buy sushi? Weird... would think if a restaurant is getting money for something no matter how small that they would be happy? Guess not. read more

This would be the best Asian restaurant, if a person never had Asian food before. Never had food this bad before. The ramen ordered was straight from the grocery store Asian isle. The staff was rude and never brought water to the table. The sushi looked like it was made by children and tasted the same. The wasabi had a strange bluish tint to it and the ginger was aged. We had to bring our own water. Was charged a premium rate and kept saying they had to turn others away due to our large party, but no others were at the door and the other side was empty. read more

Great service Great food we will be back very clean and welcoming , did not realize they were there living here 6 years ‍ glad we stopped

I ordered a rainbow roll and a California roll. Both were horrible, the rice was old and hard.

My daughter and I got sushi there 2 nights ago. It didn't look great- I assumed they were just using skimpier portions and cheaper ingredients. We ordered 2 rolls a piece because it was late and we were starving. Didn't finish it because it wasn't good. Fast- forward 24 hours and be both became violently ill (and still are this morning). Hit us about 15 minutes apart. My two sons who didn't get sushi are fine. Even without the food poisoning the worst sushi I've ever had. read more

Its disgusting and horrible food Dont waste your time!! All the other negative reviews are there for a reason. Curry udon literally had nothing but udon in some diluted curry sauce with water yuck! read more

Kyoto Kafe, Japanese & Korean Cuisine, Oakhurst, California: 7 June 2020 Seafood Champon: This popular Korean spicy noodle soup dish was supposedly created by Chinese immigrants living in Nagasaki, Japan. It has since been adopted by the Koreans, and served in Korean towns all over the world. I've been watching many Korean dramas during this shut-down - and thought I'd try this dish because it looked really good in the movies. I was looking forward to the 'seafood'... fish, clams, prawns, crab, etc. - but what I was presented this evening were mini shrimps, three pieces of fake crab, bits of clams - and one mussel. The soup was tasty and not very spicy. I had trouble with the mussel - it didn't open up and fought me to stay closed. I won... finally, but only managed to pull out tiny bits of flesh. I must say the smooth noodles were very good. (4 of 5 just for the noodles and soup base) Bulgogi: Korean-style grilled dish made of thin, marinated slices of grilled beef. The meat is first marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic and ground black pepper to enhance its flavour. The dish originated from northern areas of the Korean Peninsula, but is a very popular dish in South Korea - where it can be found in upscale restaurants. What we had was seasoned well but the meat itself was quite tough. It's more of chewing and spitting - then swallowing... (3 of 5 for the flavour) Miso soup: This came with the Bulgogi set. Miso soup is a traditional Japanese soup consisting of a dashi stock and softened miso paste. This clear soup is - well... clear. The taste is non-descript. (2 of 5) California roll: Nothing to write home about. Rice could be stickier. Service: Due the current pandemic situation, we decided to celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary by ordering take-out. The service was good. Location: Just minutes from our house, we consider this a nice location. Parking is limited though. $$$: I think it's priced on the high side. We've eaten at many Japanese restaurants, and the food here is not on par with some of the ones we've tried in the Bay Area. Overall: There is no on-line menu to look at so we had to call and go down the list of food we've had at other Japanese/Korean restaurants to place our order. We'd like to give this place another try - perhaps something different from what we had today. Maybe after the pandemic situation has cooled down. read more

Do not eat here. The quality of food and service are both very low. Even if you are a tourist and really want to eat here because you love sushi and are craving it, you will be disappointed. read more

Horrible experience for my family and I. Date 08-31-2024. Dined in to celebrate my mother in law's birthday, she decided she wanted sushi..this place was the only sushi spot open.. the other sushi spot she wanted to eat at was closed for the day which was 5 stars compared to this place 3 stars out of 5. I felt uneasy going in to eat but my mother in law wanted sushi. Not the cleanest place to eat sushi. Half way through our meal, I thought I only noticed but also my mother in law also noticed.. the sushi chef would jump in and take orders for customers WHILE using the same gloves to make sushi with..handling collecting the menus, writing down orders, handling the cashier. I kept turning around watching sushi chef waiting to see if he would change out his gloves but he didn't. Disgusting!!!!! Why is he jumping in taking orders for people when there are two other staff members taking orders? If you are the sushi chef (handle the food) not taking orders for customers while using the same gloves. This place needs to be shut down asap.. I did not order sushi for myself, I felt disgusted walking in already..I ordered katsu curry while my family ordered sashimi and sushi. I was afraid my family or I would get sick on our Labor Day weekend mini family vacation. So please customers if you are reading this please be aware of the sushi chef.. he is plain unsanitary. Sushi was made horrible, food is mediocre and place is dirty. read more
