YO! Sushi opens doors at Dubai Festival City

The new 2117-square feet contemporary sushi eatery reflects YO! Sushi's pledge of providing a high quality-core menu and the authentic Japanese experience.

Opened at the Dubai Festival City today, YO! Sushi is located a few meters away from Festival Square with access from inside the mall and the canal walk.

YO! Sushi's unique concept is an exciting experience not to be missed - prepare to be wowed! The 'on-stage' kitchen located in the centre of the restaurant, inside the conveyor belt area, is where the chef and his brigade cook and freshly prepare all 121 dishes from the menu, providing theater for diners seated around the conveyor belt.

YO! Sushi has a unique cost concept; all dishes are colour coded. The vast selection of sushi dishes, and more, range from traditional sashimi, nigiri and maki rolls, edamame and noodles right through to hot classics like miso black cod, chicken teriyaki, salmon yakitori, ramens and the best miso soup which is unlimited.

Freshness is guaranteed - all fish is delivered daily from sustainable sources and is on the conveyor belt for a maximum of four hours. Each diner can also enjoy unlimited green tea, as well as a seemingly endless supply of pickled ginger and soy sauce.

In his comments, Mr Antonio Bautista, President of Gourmet Gulf Company, a regional restaurant holding group that owns and manages the YO! Sushi concept in the region, said: "YO! Sushi has experienced phenomenal success since we introduced the sushi on conveyor belt concept in Dubai two years ago. Such positive reception and its growing popularity is also a result of an appreciation of the healthy value of freshly prepared sushi. We are confident that this new restaurant at the Dubai Festival City will be warmly embraced by regular sushi lovers and win hearts of those who may experience it for the first time. For those who have a keen eye for architectural trends, this particular location will not let them down. YO! Sushi's design team has, once again, delivered a superb space following the brand's futuristic and innovative philosophy."

YO! Sushi will be open from 11:00am right through to 11pm daily, providing the perfect destination for a casual business lunch or light grazing right through to a laid back dinner in the evening.
