We came here now and then for lunch. The katsu here is very good and this time, I brought a friend from Japan, and she said katsu here is almost the same as those she had in Japan. She was very excited to try it out and really enjoyed it. This place is not busy during lunch hour, typically there are 3-5 tables occupied. We ordered different katsu: Curry chicken katsu and pork katsu, both very delicious. Their katsu usually comes with rice, salad and miso soup. I recommend this place for lunch. If you stop by, try their katsu. read more

Consistently great sushi and katsu place on the Ave near the University of Washington with kind owners! I've gotten a variety of dishes here, and I've enjoyed all of it. Some of my favorites include the fried sashimi appetizer, the katsu-don, and the salmon sashimi. Service is quick and friendly, and the restaurant has a very relaxing atmosphere, which makes it a great stop at the end of a long day. I would recommend! read more

Very delicious! Food was great, if a bit salty, and perfect for a drizzly spring day. I had the curry udon chicken katsu because I didn't want to make a choice and it had everything in it haha. Katsu was super crisp, udon was bouncy, rice was perfect. He ordered the chicken katsu don and I'm not certain we got the right dish because he ended up with udon and katsu? Regardless, it was delicious. read more

This is the second time I've been to this restaurant. Both occasions have been very pleasant. The first time I came around 7pm, it was packed. Today I arrived at 5pm and I am the only person here (both visits were on random weekdays). I ordered the spicy white tuna poke and a nigori - both were very tasty. The restaurant is clean and the staff have been very friendly. read more

Food was fine. If you're interested in a quick meal, this works. But not crazy about the QR ordering at the table as it really depersonalizes the service. We requested no sauce on the katsu and it came with it. What's the point of submitting instructions in the app if the kitchen doesn't follow it? The tonkatsudon was fine. Heavy egg on top, little sauce. Green tea ice cream was good and a generous scoop. Place is prettier than it feels. Maybe it works better in a group. read more

It wasn't super busy on a Tuesday evening, but it is also the summer so there aren't many students around. We got seated fairly quickly and the workers were nice. The curry pork loin katsu was pretty good and the portion size was enough for a full meal. The katsu was super crispy and delicious! I also got a rainbow roll and a piece of sake salmon. I will say the prices for the fish do feel a bit pricey when compared to other places in the area. The sake salmon was quite large and fatty, so I think it can make up for the price. The fish I tried all were flavorful and delicious, so I enjoyed the food overall. The servers were nice but they never noticed to refill our water even though we were there for a while. Otherwise they were great! read more

Very clean, very fresh food. Friendly service and excellent suggestions! Sushi tacos were great!-two different styles. Not yet on menu! Nice upscale but unimposing decor, pleasant background music. Terrific flavors. Sushi tacos were my favorite! Hope they make it to menu soon! read more

The gentleman at the counter was very kind and welcoming as well as highly efficient. We just grabbed some take out and it was ready pretty quickly. The ambiance was nice and spacious too. I had the caterpillar roll and Inari and then my partner had the shrimp tempura roll. We both liked our rolls and felt the quality was good and fresh and traveled quite well. It was also well packaged. read more

Came here for lunch. Quite expensive and the food taste is not authentic at all. Doesn't worth. Service is terrible. Asked for water a few times and seems nobody cares. On top of that, they will charge a service fee without any notice. Won't be back. read more

We ordered the west coast roll and the dynamite roll, as well as 2 salmon sushi. The salmon sushi was okay but wouldn't recommend - it was served with a lot of rice so we couldn't really taste the salmon very well. West coast roll was pretty good - salmon quality was to be expected at the price point. I really enjoyed the dynamite roll. Food came out quickly, so if you're in the area craving sushi and want it fast, Yu Sushi would be a good option! read more

Service was quick and sweet! I only gave it 3 because I personally didn't think the dynamite roll that I ordered was very good because there was little filling in it. My friend got the curry udon though and really enjoyed it. Seating was super comfortable and I loved the open windows giving it a very outdoors feel! read more

For me, Yu Sushi & Katsu was a solid 4 stars. Dropping in the restaurant was almost empty. We ordered via the QR code menu at the table (which syncs per table if on different phones) and our food came out fairly quickly. Because they didn't have avocado maki on the menu I ordered the veggie roll and shrimp tempura rolls and although the shrimp tempura ended up being quite good, the veggie roll was made up of fermented (not fresh) veggies, and strangely included mushrooms. All in all, the service was prompt and the miso soup quite tasty, but their background music is one repeating song and when paired with the limited veggie menu, it's just not the experience I tend to seek out when I have sushi. read more

Came here for the udistrict food walk although this place seemed to participate unofficially. We couldn't help but wait in the line for a $2 katsu. Even with so much going on that day, the people working the orders were fast and pleasant. The bang for buck was 100% there, was a solid little strip of katsu, and the katsu sauce on it was tangy and not too sweet either. read more

We came here after a Dr's appointment and had: Pork Katsu Curry This was legitimately everything I needed on the first really cold, rainy day of the fall. The pork was cooked beautifully. Not greasy or dry. Perfect. The rice was nice and bouncy, and the curry was delicious and thick. I asked for extra sauce because some places skimp, and our server made sure that I had enough for my katsu and my rice. I was very happy. The meal came with a miso soup that was perfectly savory, and a small cabbage salad to help break up the thickness of the curry. I was SO happy. Vegetarian Nabeyaki Udon My kiddo enjoyed this a lot and ate every bit of it. I did not get to try it. Lol I really liked the atmosphere of the place. It was quiet and calm. The plate arrangement was the most artful I've seen. Especially because this place is roughly in the same price range as other Japanese restaurants, it made me feel really impressed. Meals at "fancy" restaurants aren't as beautifully arranged as the plates here are. The only thing that I didn't like, though I understand the need for in the udistrict is ordering on your phone as opposed to through the server. The server was still incredibly attentive...but I might just be getting old for this to be what I have to complain about. read more

I came with my girlfriend and immediately broke into a sweat upon seeing that my entree was $21 and hers was $25. She was in the mood for some edamame so we got one order of that too, which was about $6. I hoped that that would be the end of our suffering. However, despite ordering via QR code and there being a total of like, two people working there, to my horror and dismay there came a $7 service fee, on top of the total and tip. I wondered, why would God make this happen to us? Why does it cost an extra $7 to make two entrees and put them on the table? What college student can afford this? At least the food was good, but I have no idea why there's a service fee they don't even tell you about until they charge it. read more

Good sushi spot on the ave, just a nice spot to check out and sit down if you're craving sushi on campus. Nothing to write home about, the sushi was good. I want to try the udon and katsu/curry next. The table next to me ordered the curry and it looks delicious! Cute decorations and the lady in the front was very nice. read more

Came here on a friday night and it was not busy at all. Ordered the curry chicken katsu and it was exactly what I wanted. The curry was strong which went well with the rice and the chicken. Side salad was decent. Food came out quickly and the service was good. They gave me a container of water for the table. read more

Came here on a Monday night 30 minutes before closing, and the owners still allowed us in. You order per table via an app. We came here to get chicken katsu since not many places in Seattle proper offer it and we developed a taste for it since visiting Japan recently. We were more than satisfied with the cutlets - fresh, crispy, and oh so delicious with both the curry and tonkatsu sauce. The side salad was good, but I'd say the udon was mid. Will try sushi the next time we visit! read more

Wanted to really like this place but alas, it was not to be. The prices were high for the quality. The space needle roll was a mash of all sorts of flavors and was just too much. The wasabi portions were tiny. No standards like spicy tuna. Maybe the other menu items are better but I don't think we will be back to find out. read more

Food is good, but a little expensive especially for a college student area. Closing times are incredibly inconsistent. Went in today at around 6:30 and they were closed despite saying they close at 9 on Yelp and Maps. Another time I came by at 8 and they were also closed. The door says when they open but not when they close. It is disheartening to look forward to eating here and find out they close early without notice. Also, they charged gratuity on top of asking for tip, which I thought was a bit unfair because it was a party of 2. read more

It's very convenient being right off the line and close to the U. Prices are great. Good food. Clean.

Everything was awesome! We ordered the Chicken Katsu, Dynamite Roll, and Caterpillar Roll. All tasted amazing and would definitely order again. Really enjoyed the miso soup and salad that came with the Katsu. The sesame dressing on the salad was great! Definitely coming back :) Service was great too! read more

Fantastic katsu and sushi! Fresh and delicious - and the service is excellent. Will definitely come again!

Very friendly staff! The food looked great and smelled delicious! The place settings and decor were also well organized.

The food is ok but overpriced, I could have find much nicer place or quality food for the same price. Disappointed, Not recommended. Won't come back. read more

Really over priced for average quality sushi. Service fee is added and they had the nerve to ask for a tip too. It is a mom and pop establishment that only cares about closing at night. Dirty bathroom and no air conditioning. Wasabi on the plate was the size of a eraser head. I would never go back! read more
