About Yügo
On Wellington St in Belfast, Yügo serves a tapas-style sharing menu that blends Chinese, Japanese, and Thai influences alongside classic cocktails. The kitchen runs to 21 dishes, spanning sushi rolls like Bluefin Tuna Hosomaki and Salmon Futomaki alongside Yellowtail Nigiri and Spinach Hosomaki. Recurring plates include crispy pork dumplings, chicken and prawn bao, and fried rice with pea and ham, plus seafood dishes such as halibut with white radish and salmon with white radish strips. Sides such as rice or vegetables can arrive separately from the rest of the order rather than all at once. The room opens Tuesday to Saturday, closed Mondays and Sundays, and reservations are required.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return to the tapas-style, shareable menu built around dishes like the crispy pork dumplings, which one diner calls a "death row meal" while another found them merely average. Close behind, the spicy Brussels sprouts draw repeated praise for their bold flavour, alongside standouts like the halibut with white radish and salmon paired with radish strips. Several also single out the tempura broccoli and fried rice, though opinions split on execution. The recurring caveat is price against portion size: one reviewer balks at paying £8 for a single chicken bao and found the fried rice comparable to "a standard local Chinese," while another notes portions have grown more generous over repeat visits even as prices eased slightly. A few also find the menu's non-synchronized courses an odd format, with sides arriving to be eaten alone. Despite this, one visit included a birthday card already waiting at the table.

“Menu is more complicated than it needs to be and dishes don't come out together... which is odd when you can order a rice or vegetable 'side' and you end up eating it on its own. Great food, odd concept.... Not really how I want to eat.”
