Sushiyobi

Good food, attentive server. Split a bottle of sake with an eel roll. We had teriyaki chicken and spicy BBQ chicken and would have it again.

I love the beef teriyaki! The sushi is great! I like the patio when it’s warm out. Sometimes has been a little slow, but food always tastes good!

Decent food, but not the best Nashville has to offer.
I had chicken teriyaki with rice and vegetables. The carrots seem fresh (not frozen), and the chicken was run of the mill.

Atmosphere appears to be a minimally refurbished pub-​style restaurant. Friendly service; we asked to move due to a loud cell phone talker and the server happily accommodated us. We had the sashimi combo, which was fresh and delicious but somewhat overpriced for the quantity. We also had the salmon teriyaki, which seemed somewhat overcooked. Vegetable udon noodles were also overpriced IMO due to the paucity of vegetables. I was disappointed that there was an extra charge for fried rice not mentioned in the menu. $ 64 for two adults and 1 child, no alcohol.

Absolutely best sushi in Nashville. Sushi always fresh using variety of seafood and veggies. Family run. not big franchise so request for custom rolls are easily accommodated. Great prices on all menu items. Good atmosphere for families or couples, but late night crowds do party hardy. My number 1 must go sushi bar anytime I am in Nashville

A solid sushi pick near downtown but not a lot of vegetarian options. A quick, economical option!

Had a friend bring me the the sashimi salad Togo. Looked awesome and pretty when i first opened the box. Then I really got into it and saw that the lettuce underneath was old and not fresh at all. Very disappointed. Even though you do get quite a bit of sashimi in the salad the old lettuce underneath was really off putting. Also the sauce just tasted like vinegar and soy sauce.

Confusion and long waits…
I am not sure what is going on here. Seems like a lot of conflict with staff and the service is the lowest common denominator I have seen anywhere I have been — and I travel 50%+ of the year.
I have been here now twice and to get 3 orders of sushi and 3 rolls took almost 45 minutes. The most disorganized business I have seen in a decade.
Foods ok but the service is TERRIBLE!!!

Ordered takeout. Takeout sushi is not always safe so I was hesitant but had been craving it. Sushiyobi does it perfect! Everything was right in place, Saran Wrap so it didn’t fall all over the place and the rolls Bob Builder and Mexican were delicious! Very happy customer!

I have to give this place 2 star. Food is good, don’t get me wrong. But service is slow. They need more people to work it especially being located on Demonbreun. I waited more than an hour for my food and it has been a consistent experience for me. I’ve been here more than once.
It’s too bad because they probably have one of the best spicy tuna roll ever! it was so good but the service was just slow. The people are nice, though. They just need to staff their restaurant with more workers during lunch.
if you have the time to wait, it’s not a bad place.

This was the most lousy, apathetic service I have ever had. I am not hard to please and fast to praise. But this place… I will never go back.
Our server was rude and rushed with us from the beginning, like she had something better to do. I asked for the ginger said but add avacado. She brings me a totally different salad, and when I asked for what I’d ordered, she made a big stink about taking it back and then mouthed off about us to another server. We made it clear that we could hear her and that it was not our fault that the wrong item came out. I did not expect an apology for bringing the wrong thing (I mean, couldn’t hurt, right?) but to talk about your table ten feet away from it is rude, especially when we have done nothing wrong.
I also asked for vegetables with brown rice. She said they come with fried rice. I said, «But you have brown rice on the menu, if you can please just substitute it. Even if it costs more.» She finally says ok. Everyone finishes their salad and move to entrees.
It takes ages, but I finally get my correct salad. Everyone else at the table is nearly finished with everything by the time she sets a bowl of veggies on the table in front of me, then hurries away. I did not even have time to ask about the brown rice that was supposed to be with it.
Yet another 15 or so minutes later, as she walks by I call her over and ask where the brown rice is, and she rudely says, «It’s coming» and walks away again, like I’m a huge bother for asking for what I ordered 45 minutes ago. Everyone finishes their meals as my veggies get cold waiting for the rice. Another 15 or 20 minutes later, she comes back to say, «We can’t make brown rice right now.» (As they were not getting ready to close, they simply did not «want» to. But they are the ones who took so long and pushed us to closing time… we were there plenty early.
At this point the veggies are cold and I am missing half of my dinner, so I tell her to just take it off the ticket and I will eat elsewhere.
No one comes to apologize for the mess ups and bad service. No one offers to discount the table or anything to make it right. And, in fact, she charges my husband an extra $ 1.50 for some condiment or something he wanted. So they treat us like dirt, then nickel and dime us.
I could not leave this place fast enough. No excuse for this dire lack of customer service or incompetence. Much better places around town.

Ordered take out with the Eat 24 app. Our order was accurate and ready quickly. They even accommodated our request for veggie-​only tempura and extra chopsticks.
The food was pretty good! We ordered an appetizer and four rolls of sushi. Recommend the Dr. Pepper roll and Crunchy Crab.
The 5 stars are for the great attention to detail tho.

I got it. This is Nashville and it isn’t exactly known for sushi. Yes… this place of variety between the various tempuras and a gazillion sushi options. The service is super friendly and fast. But ultimately it is about the sushi:
1. It is okay fresh — but nothing better than I have had in most Nashville places
2. Awkwardly off temperature at times… as in rather warm rice
Add that to how its really difficult to park here and the loud music inside can be decently annoying — I wouldn’t come to this place unless I was here for a quick stop and was walking distance.
DO NOT GO HERE ON A DATE!!! Go with a friend when you are too lazy to travel for sushi

I was craving sushi and happened to pass by Sushiyobi. I went in not expecting great sushi, but was pleasantly surprised that their rolls were very generously sized and the fish was decently fresh. I stopped in with a friend around 8pm and the service was smooth. We sat at the bar and got our food within 10 minutes of ordering. I split two rolls (Alaskan and over the Rainbow) with the friend for $ 20 (including tax/​tip). There was a substantial amount of sashimi in the rolls — something that I always look out for at typical sushi joints. Overall, I have no complaints about my experience here. I would definitely come back to try other rolls and entrees, but probably only often enough to satisfy my sushi cravings.

Went here for Valentine’s Day, and was pleasantly surprised. I have not been the biggest fan of Nashville sushi (it’s not a town well-​known for its fresh ocean fish), and so I was delighted to discover that the fish at SushiYobi tastes fresh. I also enjoyed the wide variety of items (there were even rice-​free rolls, for those on low-​carb diets), and the prices were reasonable. While «good sushi for Nashville» is a different standard than «good sushi for Seattle,» this was definitely on the high end of the sushi spectrum for Nashville. Service was friendly and relatively quick. We ordered a mix of traditional and specialty rolls, and both were delicious. I would recommend this place, and plan to return.

Got this delivered to me at a hotel I was staying at. Not the greatest honestly and the sushi tasted fishy which shows quality to me…

I was a big fan of what Sushiyobi does. They are located in a hip area of town and my only complaint about them would be the lack of parking in the general area. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions of the rolls. They have a huge list of sake which were priced very well. The food was very fresh and favorable. My girlfriend and me split a Happy Roll, she had a Yum Yum roll, and I had the Spicy Yellowtail roll. They have some of the best Yellowtail I’ve tried in Nashville. I’d recommend this place to any sushi roll lover!

Sushiyobi has turned itself into our go-​to sushi place mostly because of its location and the quality of its sushi. The sushi here is actually very good and if this was a review for sushi only, I would give this place a solid 4 stars… maybe even 4.5 stars. No, my not-​so-​good rating is for the crap they serve up for lunch.
There are fewer things I love more in the world/​universe/​life than a great bowl of ramen. Homemade savory broth, fresh noodles, there are few better marriages. Sushiyobi calls its ramen «The Best Ramen in Nashville!» If that’s the best ramen in Nashville I need to hitch a ride out of this twisted twisted TWISTED town ASAP.
For $ 9.95 Sushiyobi will serve you a bowl of Maruchan (the red ramen package) ramen with «Fresh From the Freezer» vegetable medley. Do the owners think that we’re stupid? We know you are serving up Maruchan ramen. We’ve been to college. We’ve survived off it when we had $ 7.25 in our bank accounts. It’s a slap in the face to call this ramen and it angers me that they have the guts to charge $ 10 for this abomination. Greed is a terrible thing. The Japanese make incredible ramen. Embrace it and make something you’re proud of or don’t serve it at all.

Stopped in for a lunch going away party for a former staff member. With parties as large as ours you can always tell the limit of service a restaurant is willing to provide. I have to say they certainly acquitted themselves well.
The food was decent. I didn’t have Sushi though, just a «box lunch», so I can’t speak to the namesake quality of the food.
Parking is kind of «sucky» in this area because its mostly metered parking. I suspect there IS a lot somewhere, but I doubt there is any situation where you won’t pay to park. Plan accordingly.
I might not rush back here in the future, but I’d certainly return given a choice.

I always enjoy Sushiyobi!
Sushiyobi has a nice outdoor seating area right on Demonbreun (good for people watching) and is never super crowded when I’ve gone. I’ve tried a couple different things, but always go back to the Rocky Mountain roll. It is literally a mountain of sushi with spicy crab meat on top. Delicious! It’s not cheap but not overly expensive either. I’ve tasted other rolls and entrees here and there, but can’t cheat on my number 1 roll! If you are looking for a good sushi place, this is one of my favorites!
