My favorite restaurant, no matter the chain in Seneca, SC. The owner is always so nice, and it's worth the wait until the weekend to get sushi! Very affordable and is always so fresh. Can't recommend this place enough!! I recommend any of the maki rolls for a healthy meal.

My 19 year old daughter and I stopped here after church about 1/2 an hour before they closed. Service by the waitress and food was fast and with a smile. We shared their $30 lunch special (two entrees plus an app). It was one of the best steak hibachi’s we have ever had! The sweet carrots that came with them were good too. I was helping my daughter with her presentation on her laptop and the owner/ manager even contributed. They were very patient with us and did not kick us out right at closing.

Oh my goodness. First of all the hostess was so sweet and personable. Then the service was fast we got our dinner in like 10 minutes. Plum wine was yummy, the food was so tasty I was full and didn't want to leave any behind. We will be back!

Food was great! Service was quick! And I only saw 2 people running the restaurant! And waitress had the sweetest personality! I would eat there again.

Wonderful food! I got the Habachi chicken with broccoli. Generous portions of both meat and vegetables. The chicken was seasoned well. Excellent lunch. I highly recommend. Waitress was prompt, professional and came back to check on me shortly after serving. Asked me after eating if I enjoyed my meal. Love this place!

Amazing food, quick, an very affordable. My wife and I love this place. The Habachi steak and mushrooms is $15. I order mine with grilled Zucchini and onions instead of the rice. The steak, medium rare, melts in your mouth. Don't forget the Spring Rolls...amazing too. Emma is a great waitress. Check them out.

My favorite Asian restaurant in Oconee County. The service was excellent. My hostess kept a check on me and topped off my jasmine tea. The steak and scallops were cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Yoshi's for your oriental cuisine
