Yusheng here is severely undersized and expensive for it's price! I ordered a Large Yusheng and they gave 8 pair of chopsticks. But the actual size of the Yusheng, is extremely small like a mini version. Super disappointing, tried to call them, but no reply.

Very good Sushi and Sashimi. Really enjoyed their Salmon mentaiko roll and all their Salmon sushi. …
Kumar
Tempura was nice and crispy though some of the vegetables were cut too thick; sushi rolls were great. Had beef rolled with enoki and beef was slightly tough and chewy. Food and service were quick. Overrall good value.
