Yo! Manchester Selfridges Trafford

I came with friends to the Sushi School and it was so good! We had a lovely chef show us how they cut the fish and step by step instructions for making 5 different types of sushi (2x hosomaki, uramaki, temaki and nigiri). It was loads of fun and we got to eat our sushi or take it home after and there was plenty of it. Free drinks too. Highly recommend!

There’s always a long queue here so we’ve only ever got takeaway before which has been nice. It wasn’t that great the quality is pretty average and the price really isn’t far off what you’d pay in Australasia in Manchester for a similar portion. Its a long time since I’ve been to a Yo but there’s a lot of stuff they used to offer that’s gone away water taps at the counter, complimentary ginger and wasabi, it was all a bit underwhelming really.

Well since we had an hour and a half to spare before my childs play session at play factore we thought we 'd go to yo sushi the queue was massive it was boiling hot in there we contemplated leaving the queue several times but this was meant to be part of her birthday treat. We kept seeing several empty seats but they were not getting filled and the queue was not moving it was a form of torture really by the time we got to the front of the queue it was time for the 2 hour play session to start and i hoped we would finally get seated soon so we could make it to the play session before it finishes. But it was still another 15-20 mins before we were seated in chairs that look like theyve seen better days. Once there it was great. I mean it was slow service if you ordered food and drink and no one explained the system to me i had to ask if the '20 ' sticker on the dome on top of the dish means its 20 quid and they finally explained no the pricing is colour coded accorded to the dish and handed me a menu which i hadnt been given before. I have anxiety it makes me anxious to not know the prices of things until its time to pay and would have preferred to pay upfront but as this wasnt possible i had to use my calculator on my phone to monitor how much it all was and to tell my child to limit herself. Then they added a service charge to the end anyway. What service? They werent seating people in time or explaining the system definitely acted like i was bugging them by asking questions all the time- at the end i literally asked 3 different employees how im meant to pay and they walked right past me without acknowledging me like i never said anything and we ended up being late to the play session due to slow service but its not a low rating because the actual food was good and id recommend. I played it safe with prawn crackers miso soup and mochi and really enjoyed it. Really like the moving conveyors. If i had been seated quickly and explained the system and it wasnt so hot it probably would have been a 5 star review from me. Also wish they had drinks like ramune my child gets it from the yo section at tesco so i assumed theyd have them in the restaurant too but they dont? Food: 5 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2
