The sushi was phenomenal, JT is the goat tho. If you have the pleasure of eating at this establishment you'd better hope that you get JT as your server. He's got a great personality, this guy is truly earning his tip. Also All You Can Eat is the way to go. The sushi was almost as great as JT. Also the decorations were great. Loved the ambiance, almost as much as I loved JT. You can tell this guy knows what he's doing, a true pro. I mean that very sincerely. He knew exactly what was what before you even said anything. u da goat JT. read more

Pretty good sushi! The all you can eat is the way to go. I really enjoyed the nigiri, but the rolls were super popular among the other customers. The rolls are very non traditional and creative. Service was excellent (thank you Alexis). The ambiance is comfortable. Definitely would return. read more

This sushi spot in downtown Boise was absolutely out of this world. Even on a busy weekend, it was completely worth the wait. We put our name on the list and waited about an hour and a half for a table, and honestly, we would do it again without hesitation. The location is perfect, right in the heart of downtown Boise and surrounded by shops, restaurants, and all the fun energy the area has to offer. While we waited, we walked around, explored the stores, and soaked in the great vibe of the neighborhood, which made the wait fly by. The service was good, though not exceptional, but that was understandable given how packed the restaurant was. With that many tables in a section, it is hard for any staff to deliver top tier service, and they still did a solid job keeping things moving. We ordered the all you can eat option, which was the best decision. It allowed us to try all of the top rated rolls, and every single one was fresh, creative, and incredibly flavorful. The quality far exceeded our expectations for all you can eat sushi. If you are looking for an unforgettable sushi experience in Boise and do not mind a wait, this place is a must try. The food alone makes it more than worth it. read more

A really good deal if you eat an average amount (all you eat for $40.00). The sushi was very good, not excellent. The restaurant was clean and the seating was comfortable. The service was good... read more

Definitely my fave AYCE sushi!!! Quality of fish is great. I take my husband with me here but he doesn't eat sushi, but that's okay because they also order other food :) I like getting their nigiris because you can taste the fish more than the rolls. Their rolls are also amazing though! Definitely 10/10 would come back here again! read more

So fun to come here as a family. The boys love the all you can eat sushi and appetizers. Delicious. Great variety and super fresh.

This place is absolute perfection! From the ambiance, service, value, and food. Everything is so good. I highly recommend it. I got the all you can eat option and ordered tempura shrimp, tuna nigiri, miso soup, and seaweed salad. I also ordered the anger management roll which is their most popular roll. I see why because it was so good. It's located downtown and there is a parking garage right next to it where you can park. They also have outdoor seating for people watching and enjoying the great weather. read more

Loved it! Easy to join waitlist. The customer service was A+. The food was delicious! The egg rolls were some of the best I've ever had. We tried the Bronco, the Zootopia and the Gladiator. All really delicious. If you're worried about spice, the 1 jalapeño spice level is hardly anything at all. I didn't even break a sweat on the upper lip. read more

Garrett is a phenomenal young man! Dressed quite dapper and incredibly polite. He was quite talented with his ability to take orders and had great recommendations. I wouldn't hesitate to trust my parent's kids with this kind gentle sir and think you should to. Leaving 5 stars for Garrett because that is all I could give, not all he deserved. Give this man a key to the city maybe even mayor of New York City. I hope to have him as my server every time I come to yoi tomo, that is if he isn't leader of the universe. read more

Great sushi in Boise huge selection. Service was not the best. But great restaurant and everything else made up for it. All you can eat was worth it. Very busy on the night we were there. read more

More expensive now. You get less in terms of Yakisoba from my experience so shrinkflation much? They removed the simplest thing from the menu, white rice and chicken teriyaki bowl. Now it only comes in a combo with a sushi roll and 2 gyoza but people typically ordering that, don't like sushi (could be out to lunch with someone that wanted sushi.) They refused to let me order just the bowl of rice with teriyaki or they said they'd just say to hold the sushi and still play $19 for just the bowl. Dumb. read more

Solid land-locked sushi. Service is typically good, but can be a little slower on busier nights. It's nice that they have the waitlist you can get on online, but would prefer a traditional reservation. There's usually a 1-2 hour wait on weekends and holidays, so definitely make use of this. Their rolls are creative, some of which I like, some seem a little hillbilly-esq, but we're in Idaho so that's to be expected. Not a fan of cream cheese in a sushi roll. Never encountered that in Japan. The fish has been consistently fresh and appropriate temperature. All-in-all a solid sushi joint, especially considering the nearest ocean is about 450 miles away. The ambience is also decent. Seems clean, well kept, and tasteful. read more

Service and food are always the great. Mav loves the Philly and Mom loves the Twister. Sav gets the kids chicken teriyaki. I love the ice cold beer. read more

This review is based on a to-go order. I have to say the food was delicious, I got the Rainbow Roll and another one I forgot the name but it had mangos, cream cheese and pineapple sauce. It was incredible, I will definitely have to come and sit down to eat next time. Only negative was the hostesses were not very friendly they barely talked to anyone and when they did it was short one worded answers. Kind of disappointing for somewhere that looks extremely busy all the time. read more

My sister and I were going to an event the Morrison center tonight so we wanted to have dinner somewhere close to it. Yoi Tomo sounded like the perfect place to get our night started. We did arrive before the chaos started. Walked in and got sat right away. I love the vibe of this joint! It's busy with customers, food is being pushed out left and right and employees hustling to their tables. The decor is bright and fun, makes the tone of your dining experience light and fun. It also makes me happy to see local joints staying busy and prosperous! Michelle took care of us tonight. She's very sweet and cute. Drinks were started while we looked over the menu. I did look at home online but after going over the menu in person, I thought I knew what I wanted. That changed, everything sounded so good! They have too many options so it was hard to narrow it down to one roll. I ended up ordering some miso, inari and the Anger Management roll. My sister ordered the Blade Runner roll and some Katsudon. We wanted to share a little of everything. I love love love their miso here. It's hot! It's salty! It has bits of nori and tofu! And they give you a beautiful helping of it. It is so good! The inari was delicious. It's not overly stuffed with rice but I did remove some of it. I just like a little rice in it. The Anger Management roll was tasty! It does have spicy crab in it but wasn't spicy at all. I love the sauces that they topped the roll with. I think next time I'm going to add cucumber to the roll to add some extra texture to it. The Blade Runner was fresh and clean tasting. The outside pieces didn't really have the garlic butter taste to it. But once you got the middle pieces, the garlic butter was prominent. The ebi on the roll was so fresh. It was definitely a good roll. The katsudon was crunchy and savory. It came with a side of sauce that added extra flavor to it. Honestly, it would be so much better with curry sauce. I'm going to see if that's an option next time. That would be killer. Sara ended up finishing our service tonight. She was sweet and got a birthday dessert for my sister. I wanted to start my sister's birthday weekend off tonight as well as our planned event. She got a nice scoop of red bean ice cream with a cutie birthday candle. Sara and Michelle did a great job taking care of us tonight. I have come to the conclusion that most sushi joints in town don't add a lot of acid to their sushi rice. I'm very harsh at rating sushi due to working at a sushi joint for over 15 years. But, I have to let it go expecting that kind of acidity. So, just judging the kind of sushi they serve, it was really good! The seafood was fresh. The sauces were savory. The rice was prepared perfectly. And the miso was fabulous I will have to try their all you can eat next time. Some of their appetizer options sound tasty. What we had tonight was fantastic. I look forward to coming back trying some more rolls from this joint. read more

This might be the best AYCE Sushi place I've ever been too. I wanted steak, but the husband was in the mood for sushi, and that never happens. EVER. So, I was like "I can have steak tomorrow". And that's how we made our way to Yoi Tomo. We arrived later than we should have so we had to rush dinner (Which lead to a plate of leftovers and ordering more than we could have) BUT it was was all great, and we will 100% be back. If you do go on a weeknight- there was almost none of the wait times everyone warns about. I get why it's a hit. The formula is pretty simple, most of the rolls have the same ingredients with just a different sauce or set up to make it "different enough" that it's not the exact same bite in each special roll. We got 7 rolls, and that was definitely too many for the two of us- but we got Iron Man, Tomb Raider, The Rock, GI Joe, Black Panther, Spicy Tuna and Ten Ten. I have to ask for no avocado, and they happily obliged. We also had the shrimp tempura, and that's another winner. I want to come back, spend a longer time, and not order as much (or come with people so we can try their items) but I definitely will come back, especially for the price- just don't over order like we did or you will end up paying for your extras. read more

Great service ! Fresh sushi ! Great all you can eat price , under $40! Specious restaurant !

Best all you can eat sushi in town. Here is a little tip: Join their yelp waitlist and time your arrival.

Our favorite sushi spot in Boise. Ambiance is fun, all you can eat is such a great deal, and the food is delish. Great service, too. If someone asked me where to go for sushi in Boise, this would be the place. read more

You add yourself to a waitlist on yelp, and can't wait inside to be called. It's a small location, but it's also cold outside. The staff up front is relatively rude and doesn't seem to want to be there. When it was our time, we waiting in the lobby and there's quite a bit of chaos in there. The interior is small, packed, and poorly organized. The tables are ok, not overly clean. Our waitress was good. She was quick, but she was handling the entire restaurant on her own, and she was running around a lot. The food was a disappointed. The Korean ramen lacked all flavor, and seemed like a packet of Maruchan noodles. The sushi was ok? It lacked flavor or originality. It seemed like grocery store sushi. I did not try the tempura we ordered, so I can't comment on that. Maybe that's the magic meal. I would not come back. read more

Full Montey, Mad Max, & The New T-Rex roll. Awesome !! Actually there are a lot of great rolls to choose from the Valcano, sixth sense, & anger, management are a few more of my Favorites. The jalapeño bombs are the bomb.. The service there is a hit and miss. Sometimes it's great. sometimes it's not so great. I think they get a lot of turnover on servers.. The Sushi always makes up for any lack of service. We've seen Yoi Tomo expand four times now. That should tell you all you need to know. read more

The only sad part about coming here is the wait time, if it's a weekend night good luck. You most likely will have a wait time of over an hour. However, once you're seated the food comes pretty quick. All you can eat sushi is definitely the best bang for your buck. I do really enjoy the service and sushi here and would recommend!! read more

Make sure to make a reservation if you're going for a dinner hour. And the all you can eat makes fiscally sense if you can eat 3+ rolls. Overall great selection of rolls. Nice cuts of fish and good rice ratio. Ambiance is BUSY. It's hard to hear the person next to you. But totally worth it read more

Any place that has people 20 deep waiting to get in for lunch has to be good, so excited to try it! We sat at the sushi bar, were served immediately and had 3-4 special rolls for lunch. The fish was fresh, the presentation excellent and service was impressive. For the quality you get, pricing is super great. Why did I wait 6 years to eat here, no clue...easily the best sushi spot in Boise and the Treasure Valley! Go, and if you're hungry, they have all you can eat. read more

Super accommodating to a shellfish allergy we had in a group, making sure that there was no accidental contamination or other mix ups. Having an all you can eat deal for $33 makes it so that you can try the more expensive or exotic rolls with no worry, and we definitely got our moneys worth! There was a bit of a wait time, as the restaurant is always pretty packed full of people with the smell of delicious sushi reaching out to the street, so make sure to join the waitlist through Yelp ahead of time. read more

Review update!! We've been back multiple times since our first visit. We probably won't be back. Service was great, idea is great. Actual AYCE is lacking. So much sauce and the combinations of rolls are all nearly the same just changed a bit here and there. It just was not worth the wait to get sub par flavors. read more

The food was absolutely amazing, and our server, Garrett, was phenomenal! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and guided us to some fantastic recommendations. Highly recommend this spot! read more

I have eaten at Yoi Tomo many times, and it's always been good. So good that I decided to order takeout of their Don Katsu. First red flag was when we arrived at the suggested time and the takeout box was cold. When we got home I opened the box and was met with burnt bits of breading. Maybe 25% of it was edible, including the rice. There's no email to contact, and no "please rate your experience" on the receipt so I have no way of contacting them for a refund or any other way of fixing it. If you decide to spend your money here, do it in person. Don't waste your time with takeout read more
