Yoshida Adds Japanese Flair to Pocatello

Yoshida Adds Japanese Flair to Pocatello

Ever since they opened in October of 2013, business has been booming thanks to a local news story. At first, the Japanese native Sanae Wood was apprehensive about opening a restaurant by her self, but with a little prodding from her family, she made it happen.

Her favorite part about owning a business is what she can share with new customers. Wood enjoys making acquaintances, even friendships, with people due to her little shop in Old Town Pocatello. She admits that her favorite dish is the Ton Katsu (breaded chicken over rice).

It's pretty easy to have a favorite since the menu is so small; there are only six main items available. They are  all affordable, priced under $8 each. Visit their Facebook page to view their menu. Their page also has an overflowing amount of customers raving about the food and low price. This is also apparent on their Yelp page.
