A Hidden Gem for Sushi Lovers!
This was my first visit to the Portland area, and I was really hoping to find some fresh seafood. After searching around Beaverton and Hillsboro without much luck, I finally came across Yuubi Sushi—and I’m so glad I did!
When we arrived, I noticed the restaurant was on the smaller side, with only three or four parking spaces on the side. Luckily, there was additional street parking just a few steps away. Inside, it’s a cozy and immaculately clean spot with just nine tables and two sushi rollers working behind the counter. We got there around 5:30, and aside from one other couple, we had the place almost to ourselves.
The service was fantastic—two young women with big smiles, wonderful attitudes, and top-notch professionalism. They were polite, helpful, and honestly, just fun to interact with. Right away, they made sure we had everything we needed and even customized all of our rolls with soy paper instead of nori for my dining companion.
Now, let’s talk about the food—because it was next-level:
• Hon Maguro (Dry-Aged Japanese Bluefin Tuna) – Insanely fresh, melt-in-your-mouth, and just high-quality perfection.
• Hamachi (Yellowtail from Japan) – Excellent. Two pieces for $20, and worth every penny.
• Crazy Boss Roll – A beer-battered tempura shrimp roll topped with spicy tuna, eel sauce, and spicy mayo. Fantastic.
• Spidey Roll – Another tempura-battered roll, this time with soft-shell crab. Absolutely delicious.
• Miso Soup – Perfectly comforting on a cold evening.
• Truffle Tuna Roll – I don’t remember the exact name, but wow—fresh, flavorful, and an absolute must-try.
Overall, this was an amazing experience. I’d absolutely bring my group of chefs here for the super fresh tuna and incredible service. Yuubi Sushi is truly a hidden gem, and it makes me wish I was a local!
5/5 – Highly recommend!
