Opening with a great senior management team from existing YO! Sushi’s, we can’t wait to turn on our conveyor belt in Derby, adding to the fantastic success we’ve had from our existing six restaurants in Intu centres.
From our new winter warming, great value for money Sumo Bowls like our Beef Curry Ramen to traditional sushi and classics – Derby is in for a real treat and we look forward to welcoming the local community and visitors alike through the doors next month.”
