Cafe Yugo - South Jordan

I fought for my lunch break. the food was good and quickly came out, but the service left something to wish. there was a coworker who took orders and entertained the lobby. she was all business and no hospitality. I wanted to stay and work for a bit on my laptop but went to Denny?s next door because she was delivered such stressy vibes.

Update Nov. 9, 2021 Today my daughter and I returned. We arrived very soon after the place opened and or order was taken as soon as we decided what we wanted. My daughter ordered the Rainbow Shrimp Poke Bowl, a side of Gyoza, and a Strawberry Smoothie with Boba mixed throughout. Since my daughter was trying new things, she wasn't a fan of the sauce on the rice and shrimp, nor was she a fan of the included salad. But she loved the tempura rainbow shrimp, the crab salad, the shelled edamame, and the rice, all of which were in the bowl. She also enjoyed her strawberry smoothie and thought that the Boba had an interesting texture and liked it as it took on the Strawberry smoothie flavor later on. I was more than happy to eat the salad that was in there because I like that dressing, and any rice that sauce touched. I ordered the Veggierritto, and our cashier/chef/server suggested I make it a bowl since the burritos tend to fall apart when they're vegetarian. I was more than happy to do so since I was able to substitute the rice for udon noodles. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of it except for the zucchini which was a little over cooked, but hey! I'm no complaining! She has no help, she's running the whole show herself! I saw a review where the person liked the food but was upset because they didn't get the service they wanted. I want to say that this woman does a phenomenal job working by herself at lunch. There are a lot of places we have eaten in South Jordan that are trying to hire people for lunch. This woman is amazing at what she does and we eat here as often as we can. Sept.. 2021:There was only one staff member filling all of the Door Dash, online, and in store customer orders, but she was handling things beautifully. We didn't have to wait for our food as long as I thought we would, despite her need for more employees. I will say that we arrived only 1/2 an hour after they opened. The place was clean. The food was delicious and fresh! I had the Rising Sun Poke bowl. My daughter got the lunch special #1: a drink, Susie burrito and a side of potstickers. She liked her food too! We're coming back!

I really love the curry noodles and the sushi burrito but I tried the teriyaki chicken today and it was great. It?s so flavorful with just the right amount of everything. It?s not too sweet or tangy it?s perfect. I also had the orange passion guava drink and that was great as well.

Ordered tonkotsu ramen, shoyu ramen, orange chicken bowl, and potstickers with a Thai Tea boba. Result was not quite good enough. Chashu pork in the tonkotsu was very dry and not very flavorful, the chicken in the shoyu was oddly sauced on top of the soup, and not in a very complimentary way. The soup base was good but it can not carry ramen against poorly made competing toppings. The orange chicken was okay, but with a orange oil kick that I personally tend to dislike. Potstickers were fine, but the dipping sauce was overly sweet and vinegar, mostly fixed with some extra soy sauce. And finally the boba tasted like a Thai tea mix was put on top of a sweet fruit tea base with old hard boba. Too bad, by the pictures you can see that it made a decent first impression.

The food was decent, I got the poke bowl and was not terribly impressed. Do not go in the morning. There was one staff member working in the kitchen, taking orders, answering phone calls, bless her heart. It took her half an hour just before she was ready to take our order. It was a decent place to try but I honestly probably won?t return.
