It’s my second time here. The quality of the raw fish is exceptional! I like their Alaskan roll and spicy tuna roll. I also like ordering sashimi plate. It’s delicious! Edamame as an appetizer is an excellent choice. The service is always good here. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who likes fresh sushi.

Yoi Mi Sushi & Hibachi Steakhouse conjures up a distinctive image of a teppanyaki restaurant found especially in Hawaii and Japan, and major Mainland cities.

To be fair, hibachi (fire bowl) is not teppanyaki. It’s a small grill fired by coals, where you cook your meats and vegetables, whereas teppanyaki is probably an elaboration of that for a crowd, where food is cooked on a large, long, flat top.

But both are cooked simply, teppanyaki served with savory dips like ginger or mustard. Neither are dressed with overly sweet teriyaki sauce.

I avoided going until I had more than myself, because I mistakenly believed Yoi Mi was more like a teppanyaki steakhouse, with a presiding chef, than a dine-in restaurant for one to four+. Maybe that was the point?

Recently, I took my husband and mom, visiting from Honolulu, only for us to be shocked and disappointed.

The only good things we had were an appetizer — tuna tataki, dressed with a savory, lightly sweet sauce, the very hearty miso soup, and the “Sushi” part of the restaurant, very fresh.

My mom lived in Japan and now lives in Hawaii. She knows old school Japanese dishes. So when she saw sukiyaki, she got excited. Still, she didn’t order it, out of fear it wouldn’t measure up to the dishes she had growing up in the 1950s-present.

She might’ve been right.

I, however, gamely tried a filet & shrimp hibachi steakhouse dinner, expecting the meats and vegetables (carrots, zucchini, broccoli, onion) to be grilled and lightly brushed with butter, maybe an umami soy-garlic-ginger marinade that didn’t take over the dish with the dominating, cloyingly syrupy-sweet flavor of an average American teriyaki sauce that pervaded the entire dinner.

My steakhouse dish, the filet — tender but hard to chew — and shrimp with shells on, was covered in what tasted very much like teriyaki sauce, not the good kind, and very much on the overly sweet side. Even the pink “Yum Yum” dipping sauce was nothing but sweet with maybe a creamy back-end finish. Fried rice, typical of teppanyaki, was good.

The chunks of filet steak had no flavor, other than the sweet from the sauce. The shrimp tasted a little better, grilled in its own juices. I didn’t even bother with the vegetables. I would’ve, if they’d been left alone.

When the “tempura” arrived, I took a bite of a small, battered, deep-fried piece of broccoli and instantly didn’t want to go further. The batter wasn’t familiar, or airy and crisp, with little craggy nubs sticking out; it had a weird, pasty aftertaste, as if semi-raw. It looked like a basic, wet-flour-only-batter fish fry. The dipping sauce tasted the same as the teriyaki-like sauce that covered the hibachi steak & shrimp.

Interestingly, the gyoza is offered either fried or steamed. We weren’t sure if fried meant deep fried, or half-pan-fried/half-steamed like we’re used to and served properly in ramen shops, so we went with steamed. It was decent. Again, the dipping sauce could’ve used a smidge of vinegar to off-set the sweet.

The restaurant, operating on the bones of the previous proprietor, a sandwich shop, I believe, felt cramped, oddly out of place, and unworthy of a Japanese steakhouse moniker. An afterthought.

Service was friendly enough, but there were lapses. They forgot our extra wasabi (which wasn’t nearly strong enough) and our tempura. Prices were very affordable for a “Japanese steakhouse,” $20-something for the filet and shrimp, for example, which is a good deal. Only one restroom, as far as I can tell.

Still, the place was packed with locals, so what do I know? Reviews are some of the highest of any restaurant in town. Bizarre.

We’ll continue to try and find decent Japanese offerings up in Boise… We have yet to enjoy anything remotely close to what we’ve had in Hawaii and Tokyo.

People who haven’t experienced a true Japanese Hibachi Steakhouse, or teppanyaki for that matter, would have no idea that what they’re eating at Yoi Mi falls short of authentic or “the best.”

The sushi was really good. The waiter was nice, but we didn’t get as much attention compared to other customers. The hostess who seated us seemed unfriendly.

This is the best place for sushi in town. Their sushi rolls are great and easily customizable to order online. Dining at the counter is a quick delicious experience. My pictures won’t do it justice, but they were amazing.

Had a chance to take the family out to try Yoimi and it did not disappoint. I have heard great things and I am happy to say I was not let down. A great spot for any occasion and one the kids will love.
Plenty of options for anyone. Sushi quality is fantastic and the Hibachi dishes not only are prepared with excellent flavors, they are also generous in portion size. And to pair nicely with the great food was the friendly and inviting service. From the smiling face inviting you in to the waitstaff, everyone was kind and helpful.
For any occasion, I highly recommend trying out Yoimi while enjoying the other shops in downtown Twin Falls.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when we went in as it was our first visit.

We were greeted politely and seated right away. Service was prompt and attentive. Our group ordered a little bit of everything so we could try a lot. Appetizers were awesome, sushi and dinner dishes were all great. Rich flavor, well balanced dishes, and presentation was beautiful.

Atmosphere was cozy and the ambiance was nice.

Our visit was a great surprise and I look forward to getting back for another meal soon!

My daughter took me out on Valentine’s for my birthday, and we both had an awesome experience! Even though there was a waiting list, 30 to 45 minutes wait, we still wanted to try it out since it was our first time eating there…and we were not disappointed at all! The food was delicious! The employees were awesome! Even though it was a cold and rainy night, the atmosphere in Yoimi was not. Thank you for a great experience! We will be coming back.

I had an amazing experience at YoiMi! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and inviting. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt taken care of throughout the meal.

The food was absolutely delicious! “The sushi rolls were fresh and flavorful, and the hibachi was cooked to perfection, Each bite was a delight, and it’s clear the chefs put a lot of effort into both the presentation and flavor.

Overall, I highly recommend YoiMi to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. I’ll definitely be coming back soon!
