Fodor's "This tiny, unassuming restaurant is arguably the best Japanese restaurant in town." Full review
Frommer's "Skip the booths and go directly to the bar, where you can sit and watch the action. This place is made for raw-fish aficionados -- if you like your food cooked, you're out of luck." Full review
BlackBook "Guest-bedroom sized sushi succulence."
Gayot16.0
"Yotsuba is so popular and so tiny---just two small tatami mats and a sushi counter that seats about six---that you'll need a reservation at least three days (preferably a week) in advance." Full review
Time Out "Yotsuba is a veritable sushi heaven in Beijing, with seafood flown in daily from the Tsukiji market in Tokyo." Full review
