yuri japanese restaurant

underwhelming. anti-family, very cold, unfriendly, unaccommodating, rude (in a bad way), and pricey. thissushiwould be third rate in new york, boston, or toronto but in cary people like it because it pretends to be something it surely is not.

worst service i have ever gotten. they should be ashamed.. i went to this restaurant tonight with my husband and my 10 week old daughter. we were seated near the back so we had room to put our stroller. my daughter was quiet while we were waiting for someone to actually come along and serve us, then someone came to take our drink order finally (did i mention it was not very busy). anyways, my daughter did start to cry a bit so i was putting her in a sling to breastfeed. she was starting to calm down (we were probably in the restaurant for a total of 10 mins with maybe 2 minutes of combined crying. so, she was starting to eat , and the older man at the front asked us to please order "to go". i had to ask him to repeat himself. so he said he wanted us to make our order to go. i told him then we will not be ordering. he actually asked us to leave! told him he was rude and that we have never been treated like that. i have lived in toronto for years and have been out several times with my daughter and not once have i ever been treated like that!

prices were big city like. manager/owner was rude. i lovesushibut this guy just put a bad taste in my mouth. if you have any respect for yourself go somewhere else, there are far superior places. this place severely lacks hospitality in the truest sense.

awful experience. i had an awful experience at yuri tonight and sadly it wasn't because of the food. while enjoying my tuna tower, i shockingly viewed the owner of yuri throw out two couples with their children simply because they had children! as a mother of 3, who goes to many restaurants with her kids, i was absolutely disgusted and offended by this type of behavior. although thesushiwas fresh, i doubt i will ever go back to this restaurant after what i witnessed.

well worth trying. have been on about half a dozen occasions and been very pleased with each meal. if you like a bit of adventure, and a bit of spice, try the ahi tower. a multitude of flavors and a lot of food. i have to admit i've only had thesushiand sashimi, but have had friends say their savory dishes are delightful as well.

not great food and poor customer service. took my 2 daughters there for lunch today. we hurried after a soccer game to make it in time for lunch and arrived at exactly 2:25, we were seated and then promptly told they would charge us dinner prices (which are really expensive!). we showed her our cellphones showing the times 2:22, 2:23, and 2:25, but she told us that their clock (which was obviously fast) said 2:30, therefore they were charging us dinner prices.
nice! we left and will not be back. terrible customer service! there are too many other good places around here to getsushiwith a smile. hope they're satisfied with loosing a family of regular customers over 5 minutes.
besides theirsushiwhich is decent at lunch prices, the rest of the food there is pretty gross, particularly their salad dressing, which is runny and the teriyaki chicken with what seems to be bottled sauce dumped on top. they also use cheap dark meat chicken.
back tosushithai for us!

pretty good!. my daughter and i ate there for lunch and ordered 2 bento boxes with nigiri, a california roll, one had teriyaki chicken, the other had vegetable tempura and salad. now, the good and the bad:
the bad first: tthe chicken was seriously overcooked with some not so tasty teriyaki sauce dumped on top. the salad was inedible. it was floating around some tasteless, runny, watery something that i assume was supposed to be salad dressing.
on the other hand, the nigiri and california roll were very good. the seafood tasted very fresh! the miso soup and tempura were good (standard). the wait staff was friendly and attentive and the decor is attractive and modern. the restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms (which i really appreciate), and the wait staff was very busy cleaning in between orders.

chicken deep-fried in panko crumbs, dip it into the plum sauce and yum! and of course yuri’ssushiis top-notch with great rice and firmly rolled for dipping into the soy sauce. their sashimi is beautiful, pink fatty tuna and more.

sushi good - the rest poor. i hate to be the one to post a negative comment but my family ate there tonight and will not be eating there again. thesushiwas good - but one of the only restaurants in the area that does not offer buy-one get-one free. all 4 dinners were less than acceptable. we all had leftovers for the dogs. dark meat chicken seamed low grade and looked more like mushrooms than chicken. one of our meals came out 7 minutes after the others were served. not at all worth the high cost!

simply the bestsushiavailable in the triangle!. our group of four eatssushiweekly and we have tried every singlesushirestaurant in the raleigh/cary area. you will not find a better option than yuri. the freshness of the fish and the imagination of the rolls cannot be topped at any price level in this area. the staff is friendly and remembers you. the service can be a tad slow if they're overwhelmed, but it is always worth any wait. i can't overstate just how much better this place is than anysushirestaurant in the triangle.

our #1sushirestaurant in cary. exceptionally fresh fish. some of the rolls are unusually creative. thesushispecials are expensive, but worth it - try the live scallop. the ahi tower is hugely satisfying. good selection of sakis. artistic interior. friendly and efficient staff. highly recommended.

some of the bestsushiin cary. i have eaten at yuri half a dozen times and never been disappointed. everything is delicious but thesushiis unbeatable. i highly recommend thesushirolls, nigiri, and sashimi. their rice-free rolls are also very good, although pricey. the decor is soothing, the staff is very friendly, and everything is always clean.

best in cary. great sushi, friendly staff, and creative chefs make this a must-try for anysushilover. they offer a wide selection of specialty rolls at a reasonable price. i recently dined with a party of 7 with each person ordering 2 different rolls...no repeats. each and every roll was outstanding!

fabulous!. my wife and i lovesushi-- i.e. sashimi and nigiri for me andsushirolls for her. we ordered thesushicombo for two plus and extra roll (since i'm a big eater). at other restaurants i would still have been hungry. at yuri i was stuffed and we took rolls home. the best part though was the incredibly high quality of the seafood. i've been eating shushi for 21 years. -- it just doesn't get any better. btw the service was great as well!

amazing!!! bestsushiin raleigh & durham. thissushiis fresh!!!! anyone who comments different has not had quality sushi!!! the presentation is amazing and the staff is so welcoming!! we have been going to the restaurant since grand opening and visit 2-3 weekly!!! we love the variety of rolls and they will make you anything you want to try!! we have brought out of town family, friends, and co-workers who have all raved over this place!! if you like quality & freshsushiand a nice clean relaxing atmosphere than this is your place!!!

very good!. i dined at this restaurant multiple times and it has been very good. the food was fresh, and the price was fair; the serving size was perfect. you have to try the monkey brainsushiroll, it is exceptional! i scrolled down and saw two negative comments made by yeam and eric, and i can not believe that we went to the same restaurant, they must have made a mistake.
