My Review by colleenc985126154 on 8/18/2012 via Citysearch
Go early or forget it. The last five attempts to wait for a table have been a disaster. Every time our name was scratched out and passed over for another group. Yumi is completely unsuited to seat tables. She barely understands English and…

Great Sushi by ltr4241 on 1/29/2012 via Citysearch
This place has an terrific menu and the sushi is excellent. We found it a bit high, but perhaps you get what you pay for. I will say this place is tiny, and we felt we were on the clock to eat and get out, so the next people can sit. If…

Decent Sushi but rushed and cramped by slacker11 on 1/13/2012 via Citysearch
First, this is a solid sushi bar....the fish is fresh and the taste is up to the standard of a great sushi bar. They have all the fish you can desire and what looks like a solid line up of rolls, if thats your thing. I have been hearing…

awesome by Jennifer on 3/5/2010 via Insider Pages
BEST SUSHI IN THE STATE. Yumi's is always busy so go early.\r \r Nothing else to say but a definite MUST!

Love it! by Annabella on 8/6/2009 via Citysearch
Not bad sushi considering we live in Minnesota! Great menu choices for sushi beginners and experts alike. I especially love the Tonka Maki roll. Lines can be long so get there early or else plan to sit at Jakes or Haskells and have a…

Amazing Sushi by Alicia R on 4/13/2009 via Insider Pages
Yumi is a small sushi bar that is AMAZING!!!! The service is great and has great food for sushi and non sushi eaters. It has a small and intimate atmosphere.

Very good sushi!!!!! by go4sushi on 4/2/2009 via Citysearch
Yumi's sushi bar is one of the best on town! Tonka roll is one of my favorites rolls (tuna,yellotail,salmon,white tuna,cilantro,jalapeno and more veggies finish with one touch of wasabi cream) create by chef Gonzalo.Sashimi is good too…

Good time for go to Yumi's is early, they are always busy have to wait a little bit for table special on weekends.... Food is great! the spicy tako salad the best !!! the lobster roll and the water street roll new creations of chef…

Best sushi in MN, maybe anywhere! by klehrb on 3/8/2009 via Citysearch
I find some of the negative reviews comical and probably written to deter people from going because the wait is long at times. Yumi's place is excellent and she deserves only great reviews!\r \r We have been going for years and it remains…

Superb Midwest Sushi by Adriana S on 9/10/2008 via Insider Pages
Unbelievable sushi can be found in the midwest believe it or not. We found this wonderfully quaint sushi bar that serves the most unbelievable grade and variety of sushi. There is no need to drive into the twin cities. This lakeside…

Tight spaces, okay sushi, difficult parking by dododog1 on 4/7/2008 via Citysearch
I immediately saw a familiar face behind the sushi counter. The tables and spaces were tight, definitely not kid friendly, casual atmosphere. The sushi was decent, certainly not the best but there are not many options at that location. …

Easily the best sushi in Twin Cities, VERY high quality, GREAT chefs by epdiner on 2/19/2008 via Citysearch
I've been to at least 12 different sushi bars in the Twin Cities and Yumi's is by far the best. The quality of the fish is consistently high, the selection is very broad, and the chefs are extremely creative and friendly. Yumi's is often…

angry sushi chef by love4sushi on 12/17/2007 via Citysearch
Couple weeks ago we went there , Food was so-so but sushi chef was yelling at the people and it was very noise even sushiman drunk , kind of not my place to go there ....

Fantastic Sushi! by teddi67 on 11/29/2007 via Citysearch
This is the best place on the West side to get Sushi. I recommend sitting at the bar. The Dining room is way to crowded. It is a very small place and you are sitting right on the other diners. This is not a place for romance are…

Best service ever!!! by sushiwiz on 9/25/2007 via Citysearch
I have been eating sushi since the late seventies, and I have been all over the world. Yumi's sushi is second to none. The fish is as fresh as anywhere I have ever eaten. The chef's need some work on their communication, but overall their…

Yumi's Sushi Bar by rawbitchslime on 9/22/2007 via Citysearch
A small sushi bar by lake Minnetonka in charming Excelsior Mn. Derfinitely worth the wait if you happen to get there later. Freshest sushi in the whole twin cities. Fresh faces, friendly chefs and servers. Imported saki you can't get…

Horrible service, so-so food by anderson_andy on 8/16/2007 via Citysearch
I was there last sunday and Yumi recommed me to sit at sushi bar . She said it's fun and better turns out Rudest customer service I have ever had. The sushi chef was very impatient and snappy when we asked simple questions like how big…

Rip Off by smith_scoother on 8/6/2007 via Citysearch
My friend and I went back to finally have omakase. This time they had our reservation, but we were mostly ignored by the chef. The quality of the fish was high, the art of sushi-making was average and in an american style (monster pieces).…

Avoid on Fridays, Do NOT try by frank_jr on 8/3/2007 via Citysearch
The food was okay and we had no complaints, but it doesn't make up for a lackluster dining experience. The cook we had was okay "don't know about fish" and don't speak english, but the wait staff was pushy and impatient (We had about 2…
