Yamato Japanese Steakhouse

I didn't have a great experience at Yamato, but it certainly was a good one. Way better than what…read morethe majority of other yelpers experienced, based on the reviews. Myself and two buddies at a Yamato on a Friday night. I was expecting a wait, but one of the guys called in early. So, we had to sit at the bar for a bit, but only about 10 minutes. The bar is small, maybe 6 seats. It's kind of an afterthought in the restaurant, tucked away in a corner near the restrooms. But, it has stools and a guy that pours your beer, so it gets the job done as a bar. Yamato has the usual selection of Japanese beers (Kirin, Asahi, Sapporo), plus some standard domestic fare. They have a short sake menu and some specialty cocktails, including a sake martini that I would not recommend. We were seated at the teppenyaki table with a couple, so only 5 of us total. This allowed us to stretch out, which was nice. Every other time I've dined in a setting like this, the table has been full. Our server came over quickly to take drink orders, but after that it took awhile for her to return to take our dinner orders. This was the only issue, she was very attentive the rest of the evening. I went with the Yamato Special: lobster and filet with all the extras you typically get a place like this. We had the requisite broth with floating mushrooms and fried onions, followed by a simple ginger salad. These were fine. Our chef arrived next, and he was friendly. He immediately started with the fried rice, followed by the shrimp. The shrimp was better than I was expecting, it wasn't overcooked, and was nice and juicy. Also, we got a lot of it. I don't know if the kitchen accidentally gave him too much food, but I would estimate each of us received a dozen (at least) shrimp. Likewise, the lobster was cooked well, certainly not overcooked. The filet was not as strong, it was overcooked beyond medium rare, and did not appear to be the best quality. This was the worst part of the meal for me. A problem with this meal was the pacing. Usually at places like this, you are given time to finish each course, or come somewhat close, before you are given the next course. This guy was shoveling food at us like he was double parked. So, we didn't really have time to enjoy anything, as it was coming at us so fast and our plates ended up piled with food. My buddies I ate with said this was atypical for Yamato, which is good, because it was very annoying. Our server was great, she let us sit for awhile after the chef left to finish our meal. She was also very prompt delivering refills. Overall, this was a good dinner, and I'd return. But, don't expect to be blown away by Yamato.

Our orders were taken and we received our drinks and then we didn't see anyone for another 20 minutes. We took our cups to the bar to get soda refills on our own. We had to do this twice. Finally, a waitress came to the table and said we would have a "little wait" because they only had two chefs working. Our chef acted as if he was intoxicated. He cooked the food but we got no show. None of the fun entertainment we took our kids for. Then he left abruptly and said he would be right back.... that was another 30 minutes. More than 2 hours later we were ready to leave. Oh and the bathrooms were disgusting. All of the toilets were full and there was urine on the floor. So disappointing.

The restaurant is spacious and full of seating, so getting in on a weekend is easier. The service for the most part is good as well.

Thankfully, to-go is still great because they have wonderful packaging to keep everything separate and fresh on the ride home. It's the best bowl of ramen in Norman by far and well worth the visit.

I ended up with a two roll lunch special and got the Alaska Roll which ended up being my favorite and I tried the Tokyo roll which wasn't bad, but wouldn't be something I'd order again.

We really like the sushi as well and often order from the sushi menu rather than some of the other entrees they offer.
