Our son and I checked out Sushi Yama, and it was all excellent. We had George roll (favorite), pink lady roll, Alaskan roll, and Fuji Mountain roll. Although their prices seem to reflect their popularity, it is still some of the best sushi in BR. read more

Sushi Yama - Sushi Bars Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

My husband and I really love this spot for lunch. They have the best sushi rolls hands down. The Fuji mountain roll is a wonderful choice and big enough to share. The fresh tuna is absolutely perfect and the wonderful ending of fresh cut pineapple ends the lunch perfectly. The staff could be a bit more attentive but they aren't too bad, the place is always busy for lunch and the food is always fresh and the place is always clean. The prices could be better as well but you are in the heart of Baton Rouge. read more

Little Rice Roll - Amazing as always, we really enjoy the sauce it comes with Pink Lady Roll - good! M. J. Roll - fresh and yummy. The yellowtail was really good. I liked that the spicy mayo was on the side (I prefer without spicy mayo but my fiancé loves it, so I really liked the option on the side for that roll) Six-three Roll - tried it for the first time and we LOVED it, fresh and tasty! Great quality sushi in BR. Service is excellent! We enjoy dining each time, also take out quality is good too! read more

I am a huge sushi fanatic, and this is my absolute favorite sushi spot in Baton Rouge. You can tell the fish is excellent quality because the nigiri and sashimi melt in your mouth. I often order the spicy tuna roll and salmon avocado roll and they are consistently delicious. I always leave wanting more! The atmosphere is great but pretty busy so I recommend planning ahead. read more

It's the best sushi in town. It's amazing every single time. I've eaten everywhere for sushi. I do wish the rolls could be smaller sizes like the NYC and the west coast bc it makes it hard to eat, but everyone makes huge rolls in this area. read more

Wow!!! The Thuy V roll was so amazing. I've eaten at many sushi places all over Louisiana this is by far my top 3 roll. The hospitality and service was amazing as well. Will be my go to spot from now on when I'm in town read more

Hidden gem in Baton Rouge. A lowkey, bar hall vibe with long tables and all glasses served in mugs. You walk in and it feels like a warm hug. Excellent pork gyoza (the shrimp is fantastic too). Very delicious and well made sushi. We had the chicken katsu as well and it didn't disappoint. What i loved most is that they serve large Asahi beers (one of the only places in BR that has Asahi). I can't wait to go back. read more

The sushi was SUPER fresh! Great quality. Definitely on the extra pricy side.. three rolls was $80+ with no drink in that price. Worth it for my first visit to Baton Rouge tho. Server was very friendly, sushi felt like it took a while to get but it was a pretty busy night and we weren't in a rush. I liked that they gave you pineapple with your bill! read more

The best sushi in Baton Rouge, hands down! The ingredients are always fresh and top quality.

Sushi Yama is a great choice for sushi lovers in Baton Rouge! While the prices are slightly higher than other nearby restaurants, the quality is absolutely stellar. Note that you also receive a delicious cucumber salad before your meal and pieces of pineapple when you receive your bill. If you have a chance to sit at the sushi bar, you'll be amazed to see how quickly the sushi chefs work while you wait for them to work on your order. The service here was fantastic as well. As a party of two, we were in and out in slightly less than an hour (enjoyed an appetizer and shared a few rolls). The inside doesn't look like much, but it's simplistic and clean - very on point to what you would find in Japan. Don't let that fool you! Note that they don't take reservations, but you can always call to see how long of a wait there is! read more

Great place with delicious sushi. As others have noted, there's a free little cucumber vinegar salad to start and pineapple triangles at the end. Service was very nice. Ample parking.

I took my wife here for her birthday. We had an wonderful experience. The sushi is top shelf. Fresh, clean flavors. Ginger house salad is a must. We opted for 3 low carb options (rolls), and a Philadelphia Roll. They hit the spot. The atmosphere is clean and comfortable. Our waitress was on her game. If you're in the area, or not, I recommend a trip here. It's not fancy. It doesn't have to be. The sushi speaks for itself (not literally ). read more

Definitely the best sushi quality in Baton Rouge! The fish tastes fresh and the rice is cooked to perfection. The cost is very reasonable given the quality. The only downside is the ambiance... it is one giant room, so no internal walls to dampen the sound which means it is REALLY loud (I know... I'm old). read more

Went to eat here on Friday w three friends. We got there at 5:30, and the waitress told us the sushi bar was a "few minutes behind due to to-go orders" and we thought nothing of it. Fast forward an entire hour and we still didn't get our food. A family came in w a young boy next to us 40 minutes after we arrived and they got their sushi 10 minutes after. It was ridiculous??? Once we got our food about an hour and 10 minutes after ordering, we ate all our rolls and we're STILL hungry. Please prioritize the people dining in :( it sucked waiting so long for sushi, this is supposed to be one of the best places in br. read more

Best sushi rolls and the most authentic Japanese food in the area. Service is always great. I think the rainbow roll is my favorite.

YELP DOES IT AGAIN! Today my boyfriend and I went for a long walk at the Burden Gardens, and when we were done- we were hungry and decided we were in the mood for some sushi. So I pulled up my Yelp app and checked out the nearby Japanese restaurants. Sushi Yama was 1.5 miles away, and was rated 4.5 out of 5 stars. That's all I needed to see! The restaurant was about a 6 minute drive from the gardens. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted and seated in a booth along the side wall. The restaurant is clean, open and modern. There is a sushi bar along the back wall, so you can watch them prepare your dishes if you choose to. The menu has all of the standard Japanese dishes, and super reasonable prices. We we're planned on having a "light" lunch, and so we ordered 3 different sushi rolls. CRUNCHY ROLL: Tempura fried shrimp, avocado & masago in eel sauce DYNAMITE ROLL: Mixed fresh fish in spicy sauce with avocado TEMPURA ROLL Tempura shrimp with cucumber, avocado & masago, topped with eel sauce ALL DELICIOUS, FRESH, FLAVORFULL AND BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED! We loved everything so much that we decided to order some dessert. The fried icecream was TO DIE FOR. I have no idea how they deep fry a ball of ice cream, it's literally mind blowing.... but WOW. I will 100% be back to try other things off the menu. Sushi Yama gets an A+ in my book. read more

The two rolls got were the Rock n Roll and V roll. Both fresh and packed! One roll can be split between two people. We left supppper full. 10/10 food and service!!!! read more

Really good sushi and vibes. I would definitely go again - one of the best sushi spots in Baton Rouge.

We dropped in after viewing the Christmas lights at the LSU botanical gardens. Place was packed, but we were seated in less than 10 minutes. The server came to get our drink and appetizer order within 4-5 minutes. Drinks came quickly, pork gyoza in about 5 more minutes. We put in our sushi order when the appetizer was served and dinner came in about 12-15 minutes. Nigiri was fresh and firm, and the rolls were very tasty. Considering that there was not an empty table anywhere in the house, the staff did an excellent job getting us served. Very friendly. The only drawback was that they were out of some items, but that was probably because they were so busy. We live over an hour away, but if we were in the neighborhood again we would definitely go back. read more

I'm here celebrating Pacific Islander and Asian Heritage month at my favorite sushi and Teriyaki spot.

The sushi is hands down the best in Baton Rouge. I've eaten sushi all over the US, and nothing compares in my opinion!

Sushi Yama was amazing! My boyfriend and I went today for an early dinner because we've been recommended this place so many times but finally decided to try it for the first time today. We should have listened to people sooner it definitely deserves all the praise it gets. We got: - Atlantic Salmon (10/10) - Little Rice Roll (8/10) - V Roll (10/10) - Nigiri - Salmon, Eel, Fatty Tuna (7/10) - Pineapple sake (10/10) We also received a complimentary cucumber salad at the beginning and pineapple with our check which was a nice touch to the experience. Although pricey (about $130 for all of the above ^) the portions were very filling and we def think the price is worth it for the experience and the quality of the food. read more

I definitely enjoyed my food but I don't get sushi in Baton Rouge- everyone had fake crab in their rolls and they call us snowkrab. First they bring you cucumber salad with fake crab. I got the MJ roll minus the rice which was yellowtail, shrimp tempura, jalapeño, cilantro and sour wrap with Japanese spicy mayonnaise on the side. The jalapeño was got enough without it. I also ordered masago sashimi and they put it in a cut-out cucumber. It was adorable. I ordered a Heineken and it was a light beer. When I asked to tab out they brought me cut pineapple. The people here were great read more

Sushi here is pretty decent. There's quite a selection, so picking what to order was difficult but fun. I don't think there's really any wrong choice. It's a bit pricey though, so be prepared for the bill. Overall the bill was $$$ for 2 of us, with a few rolls and a full pineapple saki. Would come back again when I have another special occasion read more

I got the samurai roll, and substituted cucumber for jalapeno, and it was pretty good. The rolls were wrapped well and the fish seemed fresh. I also got fried ice cream as a dessert. It's just ice cream with fried batting on it. I probably won't get the fried ice cream again, but it was good. read more
