text: ichiza sent us here after having us wait 40 min with a baby for their estimate of 30 min, only to then say it would probably be another 45 minutes. not sure if that was BS or not but we couldn't really chance it. \n\nyu-yu was on my list to try so we took it in stride, and it is just a short walk. small but very welcoming place with fantastic service. the server's english was not very good but she was extremely attentive as was the whole staff. if you have a family with small children, it's certainly much more tolerable than the hustle and bustle of ichiza.\n\nour young nephew gave a big thumbs up for the tempura udon, as well as the jidori cutlet. i thought the jidori cutlet was awesome...crispy and moist and sizable. we also had the fried jidori which i really enjoyed. the yellow tail carpaccio was excellent,. as was the mini toro bowl (nevi toro-don) and the kushi age bowl (three kushi age's on a bed of rice). the marinated squid and octopus was also good as well as the agedashi tofu. all prices quite reasonable. i'm glad we got shuffled over here. It's worth repeat visits.
