good teppan – while i wouldn't come here for a sushi meal, the teppan here is pretty decent. the place has really gotten packed within the last year, there's now a 30-40 min. wait most days. the seafood teppan is much better than the chicken or beef and the chefs are usually very nice and entertaining. prices are pretty decent (about $20/person), and people tend to now bring their kids with them to dinner here, so that may or may not be your scene.
Nice Japanese Place – I know this place is known primarily for its Teppen grill and sushi, but its traditional Japanese fair is quite good as well. I usually sit in the "sushi" or "regular dining" area of the restuarant, and get standard Japanese fare, sunomono salad, agadashi tofu, tempura, udon noodle bowls ---it's always quite satisfying, and there is a pleasant warm, buzzing environment. Sometimes the service can be a little bit dodgy, and servers may forget an order, but they are always polite and gracious, and quick to... read more
Somethings Fishy... – Yamato - great sushi. The bar is good for dates. If you want to dine, be careful. The service as of late has been on a steady decline. I don't know if it is because of the hired help or lack thereof, it took too long to get some of our orders that were all given at the same time and spread out over three seperate delivers spaced about 10 minutes apart! I love the food, but the service needs an overhaul!
The BEST Sushi in the Valley – My husband and I have been going here since it opened. We're happy that it's become a popular spot, but also realize that it's growing popularity makes it harder to get a table. I cannot say enough how great this place is, and my husband and I have both worked in japanese restaurants. It is my favorite sushi bar, and this place turned me into a sushi fanatic. Definitely sit at the sushi bar if you can. The albacore sushi is the best I've ever had. The giant clam and uni (sea urchin) are the bes... read more
forget the sushi – go for the tepan grill, it is the best grill in the valley. I have been to benhihan (sp?) and this is a clear winner. I recommend the lobster or the sword fish. Everythign included is amazing AND MAKE SURE U GET THE FRIED RICE it is to die for
What a Deal! – You can beat the half-price rolls and high quality fish. Toshi at the sushi bar is so fantastic... a culinary genius and so personable, making an effort to really remember each and every one of his customers, even their likes and dislikes. Though there can be a wait on Friday and Saturday nights and it gets a little loud when full, it's such a great place.
Great SUSHI! – I love this joint. I honestly only attend for sushi and normally we like to sit at the bar. The sushi bar guys and friendly and funny, often breaking into songs. The sushi at the bar is half price and is incredible. I also enjoy the little treat at the end a half orange with strawberrys and whipped cream. The perfect way to end an evening. Drinks where also pretty good from what friends have said. I would enjoy eating here any time. I have not eaten at the grills on the other side of the restaurant but people ... read more
Great sushi place! – There are a lot of sushi places in the Valley... this happens to be one of my favorites. It gets crowded on Friday and Saturday so make reservations or be prepared to wait upto an hour! It features a sushi bar as well as teppan grilling. Much of the sushi is 1/2 price, compared to other places. And the sushi staff is fantastically funny!
