" What a fantastic find! The atmosphere is so inviting, with a great view of the city. We started our meal with miso soup and edamame, which were both flavorful and fresh. For my main dish, I tried the teriyaki chicken, which was tender and paired wonderfully with fried rice. The service was attentive, and our server made great recommendations. I was particularly impressed with the sushi that my friends ordered—it looked incredibly fresh. It's a bit on the pricier side, but the value for the quality of food makes it worth it. I will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience at Yanagi Sushi & Grill! My husband and I chose this place for our date night. The sushi was fresh, and every dish we tried was flavorful. The chef at our table was personable and entertaining. While it was a bit pricey, the experience made it worth it for us. We'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went to Yanagi on a weekend, and it was a memorable experience! The cook was friendly and entertaining, and the food was delicious. I ordered the hibachi scallops, which were cooked perfectly and paired nicely with fried rice—absolutely delightful! The restaurant was busy, but the staff handled it well. I will recommend this place to my friends and come back next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Celebrated my best friend's birthday at Yanagi Sushi & Grill, and we had a blast! The chefs were hilarious and made our meal feel like a real event. The sushi was incredibly fresh! I particularly enjoyed the spicy tuna roll and the dragon roll. The fried rice, however, stole the show for me! It's a bit pricey, but worth it—quality and experience count for something! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited a few days ago and had the teppanyaki for the first time! It was an awesome choice; the flavors were fantastic and the chef made sure we were happy with how our food was cooked. The portions were fair, though I expected a bit more for the price point. The atmosphere was buzzing and it felt good to be part of the action. I would recommend making reservations since it is quite busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations after seeing many positive reviews, but unfortunately, my experience wasn’t as great. The sushi was average at best; I expected more freshness. The ambiance was nice, though, and the chef at our table was entertaining. Overall, I might consider trying it again but won’t make it a priority. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner with friends at Yanagi! The sushi was fresh, and the appetizers were delightful. We got to sit at the grill table, which made our night extra fun! The only downside was the service was a bit slow as it got busier. Overall, the food and atmosphere made for a wonderful dining experience. I will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)
