Yokuji Asian - South Sarasota

Chicken Leg Quarters for Lunch Special pickup only.12:00pm--3:30pm

I ordered 2 dinners but I'm sure it will make for 3 meals fir mom and I. Good food and friendly service.

Coming from an Asian country, I would say the food here is pretty authentic ???????????? Price is reasonable and the portion man pretty awesome, especially the ice tea- wow I have never have a drink like that huge in this area?love it People usuallyorder take away since it is a tiny restaurant, only has a table with four chairs at the front, but the service is pretty fastand nice.

One of the best Asian food which I ate in resent times in this town with minimum rate.
