Yoko being my all time favorite restaurant, for my all time favorite food, I am not sure, I can write an objective review. But, I still try. Growing up in Mumbai, Yoko's sizzlers Santacruz was out favorite joint in college days. On all days that we could afford to, we would be in Yoko's.
I will obviously start with the positives. I always, literally always, take the sizzling chicken in asparagus sauce. I am a sucker for their sauce. The chicken is always cooked right, brown on the outside and tender and juicy in the middle. My husband swears by mutton in pepper sauce. They have a large selection of sauces and meats, and have something for everybody. If you are looking for anything other than sizzlers, you are in the wrong place. But, if you are a fan of this food and have a good appetite, you will not be disappointed.
Yoko's serves food in humongous portions. Their sizzlers start at Rs.260 to Rs. 350, depending on whether you take vegetarian, chicken, mutton or fish. The meat/paneer portion is almost enough to serve 2 people. There is a generous serving of fries and mixed steamed veggies(to relieve you of the guilt) with ample quantity of their signature sauces. I always order extra sauce on the side and they willingly oblige.
The ambiance is good, with rustic decor. There is a short wait for the food and hence, you do not get a change to notice the ambiance. Service is quick and waiters are unpretentious. I think it is about time for my next visit.
