Yugen redefines dining after dark. A promise of an experience where food, drink, and music continue well into the night. A subterranean setting with a refined industrial feel, offering dishes and beverages influenced by the cultural richness of Asia. Tradition met with the intuition of a contemporary flair.

    Food was amazing! The venue is beautiful and the food is creative. Service was a bit odd at times and it’s freezing inside. Would have loved the staff to recommend how many dishes to order and guide us better on drinks and serving sizes. Overall the food was 10/10 and the service was a 5/10.

    It is expensive food lacking in taste and we needed to go elsewhere afterwards to get something else to eat.

    Without exaggerating, this is probably the best fine dining place I have ever been to so far. Dear chef, Exceptional taste and combinations, we are coming back no question. I would like to specially thank Claire who not only took care of us and made us feel comfortable and welcomed, but we had really interesting discussions with her that felt so natural and genuine. Claire, thank you very much!

    We had the chef’s experience and matched drinks. Drinks were good and the food was generally good with a few courses we perhaps would not have ordered. Great atmosphere and fit out

    Great setting and service was good. Food was nice but very expensive. $75 for a sushi platter with only 12 slices of fish and small pieces of scallops. Not your everyday restaurant but good for a special occasion.
