Large portions for a reasonable price. Everyone was friendly and even gave complimentary mochi and fortune cookies; they were very cute.

Exactly what I want in an authentic sushi restaurant. Friendly service, good portions and consistent quality. I have ordered from here and dined many times over the last 15 years and the quality has never wavered.

lunch bento is incredible value for what you pay!!! i thought everything was made super well and packaged beautifully. i think the miso soup is lacking in flavour but they most definitely do not skimp on the portion. they also have a 10% discount for tufts students :D

My good friend and I come here at least once a month!! The food is SO yummy and the portions are great for the cost! Such a cornerstone of the Tufts food scene You can often find us in the corner gossiping or yapping or being so silly and I am so glad Yoshi’s has become our spot 33

We ordered delivery from Yoshi’s for my 50th birthday and it was INCREDIBLE! We had a very large order (feeding 12 people). I appreciated being able to order it the day before for delivery at a specific time; the delivery driver was right on time (actually a few minutes early) and very nice. The sushi was fresh and delicious(and our low-carb family members loved the rice-free ones!) The hot dishes were delightful, the portions were generous, and attractively presented. They kindly made a special dish with no oil for one person. It was quite a large order and we were thrilled with a few extra surprise treats! Thank you Yoshi’s! I was super happy with everything and will definitely be back again!

A surprisingly nice atmosphere (clean, quiet, ambient) and quality food that exceeded expectations. Yoshi's does an interesting mix of traditional Japanese sushi and Japanese dishes with traditional Korean entrees. The portions are great and the prices are reasonable. The quality of food was sincerely high and really enjoyable flavors. The menu is extensive and they have many appetizers, sushi options, and entrees. We dropped in on a whim but were so glad we did. Highly recommended!

We got a to go order and were very happy with it. Big portions, delicious food, we even got complementary rolls (maybe it was a mistake, but let’s think it was on purpose ). Food was ready on time, good value!
