YESS Restaurant Los Angeles Reviews
Ambiance (4.
5/5): High vaulted ceilings, modern Japandi styling, and lots of natural light make Yess feel cozy yet elevated. It felt like dining at a friend's beautifully designed home. Only minor drawback was the Italian music, which felt a little out of p

I loved everything about this place! From the food, to the atmosphere, and even down to the service, you can tell the details are cared about here. Although all the food was on-point, the must-try's are the fig & goat cheese hand roll, unagi
The interior is breathtakingly beautiful.
Feels super luxurious. Their $25 lunch chirashi is a steal and absolutely phenomenal. Tastes like I'm having a Michelin star meal for lunch. Their chirashi salad is my close second favorite. So many different veggies, textures, flavors. So delic

My friend and I dined here last night and to preface, this is very much a "LA" type restaurant; from the interior design to the open-kitchen concept, it is a bit untraditional but I really enjoyed it. We each ordered the daily sashimi, a sp

YESS Restaurant is truly a hidden gem and one of my absolute favorite dining experiences in the arts district. Everything about this place feels special from the beautiful design and warm ambience to the incredible food. Chef Junya is the heart and

I have never reviewed anything ever but I feel like this place gets too much hate. I went during lunch time so the experience may be different but the person that helped us out was so so nice and the sashimi salad is the best meal I have ever had in
Probably the worst restaurant we had eaten the last 5 years
Probably the worst restaurant we had eaten the last 5 years (meaning that I can remember). The kombu lemonade aka seaweed lemonade, is really not for the weak. The sashimi was not cut right - there are chewy connecting tissue and red veins coming out
The food was fine.
Overpriced and very small portions.We spent $270.000. We left hungry and looking for a taco truck.

Progressive Japanese food that focuses on simplicity and freshness showcasing technique. They highlight their eel and we got the whole one to share. It can be a bit intimidating for people not familiar and a bit simple but the effort to prepare takes
Good spot
A truly delightful experience—led by a talented Japanese chef using fascinating techniques and exceptionally clean, authentic ingredients. We were genuinely impressed. Keep up the great work, Chef!
Enthusiastically Yes on YESS
We took two friends to dinner at YESS in downtown LA. I had seen the Bon Appetit video of a day in chef Junya Yamasaki’s operation of this newish Japanese restaurant, and it is also in 2024 LA Times 101 restaurant list. The place is in a not so gre

Yess is a beautiful-looking restaurant, housed in a circa 1920's bank building retrofitted with a lovely custom wooden door (alas, marred by graffiti when I visited). The dining room has a long cypress wood counter facing the open kitchen with

A remarkable restaurant, serving a unique Japanese-influenced cuisine. It is not "traditional" Japanese food. The chef seeks out local, fresh, seasonal produce, fish, and meats, and creates innovative dishes. There is a "temple" i

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to YESS Restaurant Los Angeles at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the YESS Restaurant Los Angeles page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at YESS Restaurant Los Angeles to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at YESS Restaurant Los Angeles!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
