    Sushi

    So much good sushi available here! I tried many options and all the employees were working hard the whole time I was there. They really know how to handle a crowd quite simple. They allow you to add or reduce items with the sushi so I was happy about that. Will definitely be back soon!

    Wow the food here takes me back to Japan. The katsu curry was delicious! i highly recommend this place if you are craving Japanese food. Service was nice and friendly. Really relaxing and chill place to come eat at. It is a bit far from the city so I will go here once in awhile

    Enjoyed my experience. Came on a Fri night just after 7PM (by myself) and they were full and taking names. Short 15 min wait and I got seated at the bar. Beer menu was typical Asian offerings - opportunity for them to have some local IPA's. Started with edamame ($6) and ordered the Salmon Lover ($16) and Tuna Nigiri ($8) and enjoyed all of it....the Nigiri was the highlight for me. Service was friendly and prompt. I plan to come back again with my bride.

    MY GOD! I can't fit enough in my belly. I love Somi Sushi sooooo much. I over eat every time and you know what? I'm ok with that. As a red blooded American I like MORE and when I'm done more and Somi Sushi don't disappoint. Everything is 10/10 but the home made hot sauce is 50/10 lol. It's garlic and red peppers and so good I base my entree around it. Get here early cause it fills up fast. It's next to Harris Teeter and Ho Cleaners (lol) so you'll have something to do if Somi has a wait. So clean ya Hos and get your groceries and come hungry. Get some beer, saki and a bento box. I get katsu chicken bento box with a few servings of the hot sauce and always have take-home to continue the AWESOME in between visits. You're welcome

    I'm sorry it took me so long to discover this restaurant. This is a small family run restaurant with amazingly fresh sushi. My favorite here is the Premium Chirashi which is a sampling of sashimi over rice. I love that the Chef gave me so many variations to sample. The only difficulty is to get seats here since it's so small and popular.

    The Aesthetic: Trendy, quaint, and impeccably clean sushi restaurant with creative rolls and friendly service. The Price: I had a self care date with myself the day I tried Somi, so it was pricier than typical for me, but it's the average cost of good sushi in CLT. The Value: You get a reasonable amount of food for the price, but the real value is in the high quality fish and ingredients. They do not skimp on the quality at all. The Parking: It was in a large plaza so there was plenty of parking, but with how good this place is, plan ahead! My Order: The Somi Roll was recommended by my waiter, and I'm so glad he did! It's the best roll I've had in Charlotte so far, and I've had more than the average consumer in this city guaranteed. I was in love with the chili sauce on top. I paired the roll with hot sake, and my self care day turned into the best day ever! The Conclusion: If you want high quality sushi in a modern spot, drive yourself to Matthews and try the Somi Roll, you won't be disappointed.

    This place never disappoints. Their Sushi's are phenomenal. The Ramen is just delicious and the service is great. This a very small and cozy place that prepares really good food. A must try.

    I don't know if I can consider this as hidden gem. They are busy and a lot of people seems to know about this place. But I don't think too much people talk about this place, so I will said it is hidden. But seriously, the service is fast and food potions are huge. I mean come on I got a sushi roll, tempura, salad, and ramen for about $20. You can't beat this. The only thing is this place is on the smaller side. If I am hungry and on a budget I am coming here!! Also this reminds me of the bento set up in Japan, which they don't go cheap on their food. Love this.

    This is the sashimi bento box.  It also had a salad.

    Absolutely a beautiful tray of food. I had the sashimi bento box. Fish was very fresh. Tempura was perfect. The popcorn shrimp was amazing. Truly could find no flaws. Cost was $35 with tax. Better than anything in Charlotte. The waitress was very helpful, welcoming and nice.

    I've had some of the best sushi in Charlotte here, originating at the South Park location and then…read morein Ballantyne as well. Excellent specialty options and everything I've ever tasted has been delectable. Quick service, excellent food and always reliable.

    On the tail end of my NC trip, my friend and I were looking for Sushi. The spot we both really…read morewanted was closed which is how we ended up here at Yama. Parking was really easy. And FREE. Pretty good size shopping plaza and it's a standalone building. Don't have to walk thru the plaza dealing with people. Park and walk right in. For me, service is what made it just an OK experience. It was a little late for dinner but the restaurant was still open. I understand the side work for closing as I've been in the field before but if you have a table, it should be a focus on the guests not the other way around. There was a mix up on the bill and the annoyance on her face seemed as if she felt it was my fault. But she did fix the issue almost seeming begrudgingly. I'll also mention that I had to flag down other staff for refills, as well as the bill. And you know how it goes - one thing is off and it makes for a forgettable experience. But I will say that dinner was fine. See pics. Can't complain about prices or portions but when I was annoyed, I was just eating to eat. I don't know anyone out here whose tastes for Sushi/Sashimi aligns with mine so it's hard to say whether I'd go back or not. First, obviously I don't live there and second, more places I'd probably want to try before I go back for service like I experienced that night. But it's probably not likely
