We dined at this restaurant recently. The food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and kind. My son was having a rough day and was very tired, causing a bit of a mess.

I recently had one of the best tonkatsu dishes at Yayoi in a long time. The broth was rich in flavor and the pork was delicious. The salmon dish I tried was also fresh and flavorful. If I find myself in San Mateo again, I will definitely consider dining at Yayoi.

The food is still delicious, but there are not as many side dishes as there used to be. Coupled with a change in their pricing policy (they used to offer free refills), this restaurant has become too expensive for what they are offering.
