About Yokomi Sushi & Korean BBQ
The dining room runs a clean modern Asian aesthetic with both standard tables and Korean BBQ tabletop-grill tables (where you cook your own meats). The sushi bar serves a full lineup of nigiri, sashimi, and creative rolls. The Korean BBQ side runs marinated meats — bulgogi, galbi, pork belly — which you grill yourself with a server’s guidance. Banchan (Korean side dishes) come complimentary with BBQ orders. Hours are dinner-focused. Reservations recommended, especially for the BBQ tables which are limited.
Signature dishes & menu highlights
For sushi: the Yokomi Special Roll is the must-order signature, plus traditional Salmon and Tuna Nigiri. The Sashimi Combo for two is excellent value. For Korean BBQ: the Galbi (marinated short rib) is the headline — sweet-savory marinade, grilled tableside. Bulgogi is the lighter Korean option. Pork Belly is the indulgent pick. Banchan sides come complimentary — try them all. Drinks: Korean Soju, Japanese sake, basic cocktails, and craft beers. Save room for Mochi Ice Cream to close the meal.
