YukiYan Sushi Japanese Restaurant

Enjoyed a lovely Friday evening with the in-laws. Relaxed cafe vibe with friendly, helpful staff. Sushi was delicious, tasty gyoza - all yummy. Would recommend.

Great Japanese restaurant around Wales, just have to make sure you have booked before you come. Great and friendly staff too! A must try is you are Japanese food lover!

Not amazing, not terrible. i went the other night for dinner with my family after we found out our normal japanese restaurant was closed. the taste was okay, your average Japanese restaurant BUT the portion sizes were very disappointing and none of the dishes came with rice (we ordered some separately) but instead so much salad. for the price i would except better. the beef in the 3rd photo has more onions than meat, the taste was wonderful for the beef just waaaaay too many onions compared to meat . staff were lovely, however i will not be returning.

Food was really tasty. Was well prepared and really beautiful dishes( I know it doesnt matter a lot😁). The service was so friendly. Well done people. 👍👍👍

I don't know how there can be bad reviews for this restaurant because it is literary my favorite place to eat in Cardiff! I have so many nice things to say about this restaurant. First of all, the staff are so nice and accommodating. Secondly, the atmosphere is so cozy and relaxing... its my comfort place to go when I've had a bad day. From the lighting to the decorations to choice of music. Third, the food is fantastic. I always order the Katsu Don and it's become my favorite food. Their miso soup always comes on the side and its so tasty too! The portions are so generous and the chicken is always cooked to perfection. Even when I order something else to switch it up (like some sushi dishes or udon) the flavors are always amazing and the presentation is just as beautiful. They also have a good selection of drinks! The only thing I would change is possibly adding in some new dessert options every once in a while :)

Booked in advance for a weekday dinner, and was glad we did as a couple of walk-in groups were turned away while we were there. The staff were really friendly and the food was incredible. Like really incredible. Could not recommend this place more. The price was reasonable, and the restaurant was extremely clean and felt covid safe.

Honestly the best Japanese and Asian food I have tasted in Cardiff. A real rare gem this place. Was quite tempted to keep this to myself.

Our own 2020 Tokyo Olympics opening ceremony 🇯🇵

As the 2020 Olympics have taken over the tele, it felt right to celebrate Great Britain’s hopeful success in style with our own Japanese feast - from the comfort of Cardiff! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇯🇵

Our meal at YukiYan was incredible, every dish was full of flavour, vibrant with colour and the portion sizes had us rolling home with happy full bellies.

On the table we had:
California roll sushi; my all time fave sushi! Can’t get enough of Japanese Mayo!

Teriyaki chicken served with fresh salad, a bowl of miso soup and served with a Japanese tartar sauce. It really works!

Tako Yaki; fluffy deep fried octopus balls served with Japanese mayo and dancing bonito flakes.

Katsu Don; breaded pork served on a bed of sticky rice, laced with egg, leeks and mushrooms in a sweet rich sauce.

Sapporo Ramen with minced pork, chargrilled pork loin, mushrooms, bean sprouts, egg and sweetcorn in a creamy broth. Topped with a cheeky knob of butter which made the dish so rich and delicious !

If you are a lover of Japanese food or want to start exploring new cuisines, YukiYan is the place to go! Located on woodville Road opposite the Irie Shack.
Gorgeous decor with lots of Japanese art and really lovely staff who are willing to help you through the menu!
