I thought the service was excellent but far less so impressed with the food. We both felt the egg drop soup was oddly textured and marginally seasoned. The Korean short ribs looked amazing but were overly fatty and not great tasting.

Excellent service from walking into the front door through the check after the meal. Food was really fantastic. We had meat and sushi (recommend both!). Really top-shelf. Although we weren’t drinking, the bar was clearly active and most folks around us were having something.

This was my 4th visit to Yoko and it never disappoints. This time I ventured away from the Pad Thai to a burger and it was delicious. The service was attentive and fast. The presentation is beautiful. 5 stars again. I will be back soon

3rd visit since it opened- gets better every time! Delicious, unique, fresh and fun. Greats at the door by the owner. Waiters pleasant and knowledgeable. Newest on the growing list of “kosher fine dining “ in Chicagoland and quickly becoming a favorite. Bar drinks are unique.. Hamburgers elevated to gourmet and made perfect to your desired doneness. Not a big place (yet) so make a reservation. Few Negatives: - 1.no barrier between door and tables So can get breezy at some seats ( I understand this may change) 2- great music- but can get very loud sometimes so hart to have a conversation ( was better this last visit) All in all- fabulous place and plan to visit (or order) often.

The chicken and beef dishes we had were excellent. The banana dessert was too oily. Otherwise the meal was wonderful. The noise level is too high making a business meeting impossible . The music is pulsating and after awhile becomes distracting.
