My wife is Japanese and we heard great things about Yotsuya but we both agreed that it was very dissapointing. The sushi portions are about 1/3 the size of our preferred restaurant. We were told that in order to sit at the Sushi bar there was a minimum of $50 per person, so we sat at a table and then we were told that we had to order 4 sushi orders per person. That seemed fine because we usually order much more than that but to be told we had to just felt wrong. Then our order came and the sushi was all rice and wasabi. So we ate our 16 pieces of rice for lunch and I left hungry. It was the worst $52 lunch (with no drinks) I've ever had. I liked the authentic Japanese ambience except there was no music and they have a huge big screen tv. Even our japanese market in West LA has better sushi than this place. Perhaps if we were prepared to spend $100 + for lunch and sat at the sushi bar we would have had a different experience but I doubt it.
Pros: Nice simple Japanese interior
Cons: Big screen TV, unbelievably small portions and high prices and fish was not freshest
