Pleasantly surprised the past three times we went! Food, service, value were all really good! We went after the lunchtime rush since I have a life threatening shrimp allergy and they accommodated! No need for my epi pen which i can't say for some other local sushi restaurants. read more

My family and I love this place! Staff is so friendly and the food is amazing! My personal favorite is the shrimp hibachi, so many good flavors and good value for the price. Beautiful ambiance and very cozy vibe inside and their clear soup really hits the spot. Highly recommend for carry out and dining in! read more

As we navigate this new Florida life finding good spots to eat can be a challenge! So glad we tried U-Yee! Service and food is great such a positive experience and the location is great! Nice to not have to travel 45 min- an hour for good Sushi! read more

U-Yee Sushi & Grill - Love boat! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

As a long-term loyal customer, I was stunned by the extreme poor quality, taste and quantity of their sushi. The minuscule offering was 30% less in volume and quality was substandard to Public. No manager on a Saturday night, tried to reach manager who had not set up voice mail and then learned he spoke only Japanese. Will not waste my time returning. read more

Love the hibachi Filet Mignon and the sushi. The service is always great as well. My go to when in Babcock.

Excellent sushi and service don't like the change in hours. Close everyday at 2:30 no late Lunch:(

Sushi was great but service was slow, esp with only 3-4 occupied tables. I'll go again - maybe takeout is quicker.

Service is always great. Food is always excellent atmosphere is wonderful. I have been a repeat customer for years and continue to enjoy every aspect. read more

My wife and I lived in SoCal for most of our lives, moved here recently and found that the few sushi restaurants (compared to those back in SoCal) we've tried are lacking in quality and also in the size of their rolls. Our experience here was great. The food quality is terrific and the portions for the rolls were good as well. Nina and her team took really good care of us. We will definitely come back again. If you like rolls and salmon, definitely get the Kelmon Roll and Double Salmon Roll. read more

U-Yee Sushi & Grill - Partially eaten rolls and sashimi. Delicious. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

Used to be a customer here, been many times. But portion sizes for appetizers got way smaller and prices for sushi rolls went way up. Unfortunately probably won't be back. read more

U Yee was great! The sushi is super fresh. The seating and service was very quick. We got a ton of sushi. All of them were good. My favorite was the lakewood ranch roll! The seaweed salad was great. The appetizers left something to be desired, the calamari could be better. The crab rangoons were good but not the best I've ever had. Overall it was a great experience!!! I would definitely go back. read more

What an unbelievable great restaurant! Went there last night with a party of four and were very very surprised on how good the food was that we ordered. Service was awesome, the restaurant was really clean, and as I said the food was outstanding. They have a nice selection of Japanese beer as well as sake but do not have a hard alcohol license. The biggest surprise was the price of the sushi, it was not the most least expensive sushi restaurant I've been to, but it was by far definitely not on the high end of sushi restaurants that I've been to. Quality food this good always equates to a much higher price point and I hope they maintain the prices that they have now. I haven't said this in a long time but I am looking forward to going back for both lunch and more dinners! Even though it's not barbecue this is a T-shirt were the sushi restaurant! read more

They used to have good quality chirashi. But It was the worst chirashi ever I had in my life. All the sashimi were too thin so had holes. It seemed like to be sliced a regular sashimi in three pieces. No worth for $24.5. It's a big ripoff. I don't recommend. read more

Nice and convenient location. The restaurant has several small tables. Good for parties of 4 or less. My go to is the sushi rolls. I try something new every time which is shocking... I'm usually a routine person. They offer takeout. Be prepared for it to take awhile! It takes about 30 minutes. Do not order via Ubereats because they do not start cooking it until you arrive which defeats the purpose of it. read more

I really wanted to like U-Yee due to the lack of good sushi in LWR. However after dining in and ordering both sushi and hibachi it is simply meh. The servers are very friendly and the restaurant is super clean. As far as the sushi it was just basic with no real wow factor. The hibachi was bland which doesn't make sense when hibachi is usually salty. Inevitably I'll be back to give it another shot. read more

The pan fried gyoza was fine, as was the Lakewood Ranch roll. We had another roll with eel on it and the eel was yucky. It's hard to do eel right and we don't like it here. The house white wine is blah, the house red is better, but you should go with the Terrazas Malbec. read more

Spontaneous drop in and was very pleasantly surprised! Excellent, excellent sushi. Fresh and well prepared. Wife had a steak and shrimp with vegetable dish. Very, very good, she reports. Will definitely return. read more

03.15 Came in for late lunch after viewing a few houses in Lakewood Ranch and Bradenton. I'm nursing a temporary crown, needed to eat something soft per dentist. So we decided to Yelp sushi places. Good reviews are on the dot... sushi are def good. Hubby had the lunch special and I had usual salmon and unagi sushi and their version of caterpillar. Scheduled to move to the area end of May and this place is def going to be in my new good eats collection list. Can't wait to come back for more great sushi. read more

Stopped by on a whim. Wasn't crowded when we arrived Saturday night about 5 pm. By the time we left, the place was packed. Food was excellent and the service was very good. We were pleasantly surprised since some of the reviews said food was good but service was not so good. We will definitely go back again. read more

Ordered delivery. Not good at all. Sushi small and mushy. Salad dressing was gross and I love Asian dressing!

The food is excellent.. The service sucks They are slow, favor certain tables over others, and generally are disorganized It's a shame because the sushi is very good This restaurant is just up the street and we will never go again read more

Excellent service, fish very fresh, Katsu very generous portion. Very popular location full the whole time we where there, recommend reservations! read more

The food was good, but we had the absolute worst service ever. Had to ask for refills, at her inconvenience, also had 2 people on ticket and were charged a 18% tip of $14.00. Every time we asked for anything she rolled her eyes. Don't waste your money or time. read more

What an amazing little place! It's very clean, nice decor, and fresh sushi. Had the pink lady roll .. YUM!! Service is also great! I wish I lived closer!! Highly recommend. They have the good ginger too! ( not the pink one ) read more

Nice people so I feel bad their business has appeared to slow down. It could be because the quality of their food has decrease to cut costs. The Dynamite Roll used to have raw salmon in it, but yesterday they definitely used left over cooked tail of salmon. I know because I hate the narrow tail of the salmon so I know when I'm eating it. Maybe they figure because the roll is breaded and fried, no one would notice, but I did and it was awful. Watch them make your sushi and know what you are getting. Very disappointed. Shame on them. read more

The food is top tier, my daughter usually gets the udon noodles and as a VERY picky eater she loved it! The rest of my family gets the sushi and we are very happy with our purchase 10/10 times. This is the one corner shop with the great food in movies..but better. Not only is the food outstanding but the service is great! If you're having a bad day, come here. read more

Atmosphere is a little lacking but the food has always been good! It's a little bit away from everything but I think that makes it better as it's never really too crowded. Sushi is fresh and we love to get the chicken katsu. Never disappoints. read more

I'm wondering if they are under new management within the last few months... we use to love U Ayer but the last two times have been horrible. Tonight we ordered Togo and had it delivered. Upon receiving it we realized we were missing one whole roll, the salads for both the teriyaki chicken and the hibachi chicken. The one roll we did receive was falling apart and soaked in a wet sauce. The hibachi rice is so over cooked it's mush. So disappointed. When we called to let them know the guy confirmed everything was in one bag, I told him what was missing and he kept telling me what it would be in and after telling him multiple times that one more roll and two salad wouldn't fit in this same bag he got huffy and said well fine I'll call and have them refund you. So now one of my kids doesn't have food they will eat and my pregnancy craving of ginger dressing is worse! read more

Love love love! Honestly the best service. Delicious food. I just can not get enough. They are always so accommodating and kind. The best service read more

We have been to U-Yee Shushi several times and have always ordered rolls. the rolls are terrific. Last night we decided to try a hot dinner. I ordered Chicken & Shrimp Stir Fry, my husband ordered Steak and Shrimp Stir Fry. Each comes with salad, stir fry vegetables and Fried Rice. The salad consisted of a small bowl of iceberg lettuce with one piece of cucumber. The stir fry had a generous portion of shrimp and chicken. However the vegetables were not stir fried, they were re-heated and some were cold. The rice was not what we know as fried rice, it was also reheated white rice. The meal was only moderately warm, not hot at all. There was very little seasoning , I used sriracha sauce to make it moderately interesting. Overall, very disappointing. read more

The side salad I received is the saddest salad I've ever seen. It had maybe 6 pieces of lettuce and zero cucumbers. read more

Great food. Open late on the weekends. If you're in the area must try. Service is slower.

Excellent new Sushi place located on the corner of Lorraine & University next to Publix. So unassuming from the outside, but wow, step in and it's a really pretty place! Brand new, clean and modern. Excellent service, eager to please. Sushi was fresh and nice large pieces of sashimi. Presentation was incredible. Prices are very reasonable, as well! We have found our new go-to Sushi spot. read more

Visiting from NJ - and making the point to visit some to get ideas of favorite places so we are not starting from scratch when we move down. Anyway, we love good Sushi and have a place in NJ that we would want to find here in Lakewood Ranch and we definitely found it in U-Yee. The atmosphere is lovely, our waitress Nikki was super friendly and so prompt with any request of more water, more tea, hey can we order Saki etc. we shared the edemame which was prepared perfectly with a great sharing portion. We had the Sashimi regular with the Miso (miso was perfect- which is always a good benchmark). It came with 3 slices of each : tuna, white tuna, salmon, red snapper, escolar. The slices of sashimi were on the larger side and so fresh and delicious. Then we ordered 4 rolls (did I mention we had skipped lunch!) Pink Lady, lucky Dragon, tiger roll, and Lakewood Ranch roll. The fish to rice ration was generous and the sauces and various ingredients were so well balanced for the perfect bites. We did not quite finish but we did a good job. The green tea (also a good marker for us) was also excellent! Highly recommend and wanted to add to this group since we appreciate the info you all share so much! I forgot to add a huge thing for us is i hate cucumber so we always tell people "No cucumber not even as decoration" (not a big mystery how that second part came about) and she made a huge note and not a single cucumber was near our plate! You would be shocked over the years how many places can't follow that one thing- another thing we loved about Nikki and the restaurant overall! read more

U-Yee has consistently good sushi and a friendly staff. The dining room is pleasant and clean. I have ordered to-go lots of times and my order has always been right. My only complaint is that if they are out of something they will just leave it out of the roll and not say anything about it. read more

I've been very impressed with my last two visits to U-YEE GRILL. I've sampled the combination sushi and sashimi , the Phoenix Roll, Miso Soup and Salmon Roll and give the Chefs very high marks. The service has always been excellent and the interior does a good job of transporting you to Asia. I look forward to my next visit. read more

This little gem is a great addition to Lakewood Ranch. The owners are friendly and welcoming and the service was fantastic. Now the food: DELICIOUS! We were given complimentary clear soup and the Holiday Roll appetizer. So good! We ordered sashimi and 2 rolls. Everything was fresh and flavorful! We are so excited to have this restaurant in our neighborhood. I know we will be regulars (especially if they have Uni!). read more
