little hole-in-the-wall japanese place. it's only open a few hours a day, and don't let the long lunch lines scare you. cheap and good sushi, chicken teriyaki, and soup.

there's nowhere really to sit, so you'll have to take your food to the park or back to work. but the staff are ridiculously friendly. if you work in this part of town and haven't eaten here, you're missing out.

You get what you pay for at Yo Yo's, but then Yo Yo's is dirt cheap. "Decent and efficient" udon and sushi, though the quality of the food is no better than what you'd find at most downtown locations serving pre-packaged sushi.

  • Pros: inexpensive
  • Cons: no seating, unremarkable food

Yo Yo's is wonderful. I'm almost always out the door for less than $5 - and often less than $3! The soups are great and the service is fast. They've been there since 1988 and I don't think they've eve raised the prices. I suggest the soba noodle soup with extra tofu.

  • Pros: Price, Food, Services
  • Cons: Takeout only

This is a tiny tiny place for take-out food only (no tables). They don't have many options but their options are pretty tasty. They sell teriyake chicken, small salads and noodle soups. Good, but nothing great. It is a basic place for food if you work in this neighborhood. Theowners are friendly. For lunch only though - No dinner served.

PROS: Fast service, Tasty Food

CONS: Small amount of choices

There's a lot of good sushi on and around Valencia Street. And a lot of good service. (Tokyo A GoGo, surprisingly enough, even though it has a high design interior, is surprisingly friendly.)

However, the top of the tops is Yo Yo's. The best service in town comes from sisters Jennifer and Jessica, who will serve up delicious sushi with fun conversation and a great sense of humor. Yo Yo is also a great place to take a big party -- it's rarely crowded, and their are plenty of tables to defeat the usual "sushi wait". Go there. Now.

  • Pros: Fun, Uncrowded, Not too loud

  • Pros: quick, cheap, good food
  • Cons: take out only
