Went there for dinner, atmosphere reminds of Japan in 2000s, the food was good for the money, lychee sake paired great with everything!

This place was outstanding! Maggie our server was crazy awesome, we just asked for her to serve us what she would think we liked to eat and it did not disappoint! The chefs were also on point. I can’t recommend this place enough for atmosphere friendly staff and super delicious fresh sushi.

It was my first time visiting Yamato, a Japanese restaurant, and trying Japanese food. It was a great experience! If you enjoy seafood, it’s definitely worth a try. They also offer Japanese-style steak for those who prefer it. Overall, a good experience—especially thanks to the entertaining hibachi show.
