We had an absolutely delightful vegan sushi dinner at Youmiko. They offer multiple sets of various sizes, as well as ramen and a la carte sushi. We splashed out on the omakase set (79 PLN/person, which is a lot less than you'd pay for something similar in any big city in the U.S. Pricey by Warsaw standards; not so bad if you're paying with euros or USD). We were served a wide variety of plant-based sushi, done in different styles - thin rolls, thick rolls, rice-outside rolls, multiple kinds of nigiri style. There was even a sweet inari (tofu skin stuffed with rice) with plum at the end of the meal. It all looked lovely, and tasted delicious. The highlight was nigiri made from celeriac and lovely pieces of rice wrapped with seaweed with puréed toppings (see the photos!)
The omakase was the perfect amount for two very hungry people with good appetites to eat to the point of being nicely full without feeling overstuffed.
They have an English menu, and both servers spoke English well. I recommend making a reservation if you go on a weekend night; it was hopping even after 9 and 10 pm on a Friday.
The only drawback: the service was very slow, which I don't really mind. But the service we got appeared to be significantly worse than the other customers. We ordered tap water at the beginning and weren't brought any until we specifically asked for it again (even though other tables who arrived after us were brought water before we were, and without asking twice.) Every other table was brought ginger and wasabi automatically before their food arrived, and we had to specially request it after the first dishes had been brought to us. And a table that arrived well after us and ordered the omakase as well was getting their food at around the same time we were (which may just be a pacing issue, since they were busy.)
I'm pretty sure that we were the only foreign tourists/English speakers in the restaurant, and I suspect this is what made the difference between the service. This wasn't enough to ruin the meal, but it was distracting and disappointing.
