    Shrimp tempura roll
    Cheryl S.

    Need to walk to this from the public parking garage. Clean restaurant with country music playing. Three screens. Football at bar, a screen of people in Japan, and a screen with fall scenes and Boston. Need to order at counter and find a table yourself. We were there at 7:35p. Friendly staff. Got a Philly roll, the crispy shrimp tempura roll, and the fried chicken dish. The rolls were fine. The chicken panko crust was crunchy but the chicken was slightly tough. Wasn't dry but definitely wasn't juicy. It came in a rice bowl with sauce.

    One of the best places to eat in Baytowne Wharf! Order at the counter and they'll bring your meal out to you. Large outdoor patio. Plenty of tables inside. Kids loved the chicken tenders and fries. We ate and loved: -Hibachi Katsu Chicken -Gyoza / Potstickers -Bao Buns Highly recommend eating at Yaki!

    I was hoping that an Japanese restaurant would come to The Village at Baytowne Wharf. Welcome, Yaki! I love their spicy tuna roll. I do wish they offered more sushi rolls. Perhaps in the future, they will offer some special rolls. The more tuna the better! I recently tried their delicious fried noodles and vegetables with chicken. Everyone I've met there, from the owner to the waitresses and chefs are very friendly and professional. I'll be back again to try

    We ducked into Yaki for a quick appetizer on a Tuesday evening around 7:30pm. In there, you seat yourself, order at the bar & then someone brings your food to you. We ordered the Bao Buns & they were pretty good! We received 3 pork & cabbage filled buns that were smothered in barbecue sauce. 2 of our buns didn't have much filling inside, but overall we enjoyed our visit!

    Indoor and outdoor seating with a nice view. Order at the bar and they bring it to you. No need to wait for servers.

    A great new place in Baytown. Quick and delicious! There's a good selection of lunch specials and many different things that kids would like. My kids loved the noodles. I hope this restaurant sticks around because it's a good addition to the area.

    sushi looks a lot better than the texture, and a whole lot better than the taste.

    December 30, 2023, dinner... This location is ideal for upscale tourists - it is right in the middle of Baytowne Wharf / Sandestin Resort. New Years Weekend. Customers walk in, order at the counter, and pay. Of course when paying, there's the question about about of tip you'd like to leave - before you get any service and before you eat any of their food. I opted for no tip. (this review is not based on the tip issue - many places do this nowadays). After ordering, get your own drinks from the coke dispenser (like McDonald's kinda thing) and grab a table; they bring the food to your table. Seven of us for dinner, 4 had sushi... at this Japanese restaurant. Not one of us were impressed with the sushi. The taste and texture was bland, with a somewhat 'bitter' aftertaste. The seaweed wrap was tough - could not even tear it apart without significant force. This quite reminded us of the sushi one would get at a Publix - but multiply the price by 5 or so. We do not recommend sushi at this Japanese restaurant.

    We love Yaki! This is our second time coming here and it doesn't disappoint. Our toddler even enjoys eating the noodles and chicken. My husband tried the Fuji Apple Saki warmed and it was very good. The apple taste was nice and refreshing.

    We stopped by and didn't realize that they were about to close... I said no, no, we'll go someplace else, so y'all can go home. The owner Quang said absolutely no you are staying here! As a previous restaurant owner, I know if you are ready to leave and someone walks in - well, you take care of them, but you really would rather go home!! Yaki's sushi was fresh and delicious!! He even gave us a special treat because I asked for something that wasn't on their menu!! Suki, our server, was so sweet, and even though we were the only table - they treated us like royalty!! Thank you Yaki for fixing us up!! Great fresh food, superior service and very clean!! 5

The riceberry rice is outstanding - never had that before. This place will alleviate your need for a Thai food fox. It should be similar to your favorite place in the dishes, taste, portion and price.

The restaurant's ambiance perfectly captured the essence of Thailand. We were seated quickly and received the menu. From the menu, we decided to try Iced Thai Tea, Summer Rolls, Wonton Soup, Basil Fried Rice, Pad Drunken, and Garlic & Black Pepper. We began with Thai Tea, which was excellent, tasting like local tea prepared well. The Wonton Soup was equally impressive, a delicious and comforting hot soup that everyone in our group thoroughly enjoyed. These two were the best dishes of the night. Our food order soon arrived, but the portions were quite small compared to the prices we paid. Furthermore, the amount of protein was extremely limited; our dish contained only 3-4 small pieces of chicken. The taste of some of the dishes, for example, Basil Fried Rice and Garlic and Black Pepper, was bland, which was another disappointment of the night. From the ratings and ambiance, the restaurant looked amazing, but the food was disappointing.

When we arrived, the restaurant was pretty empty, but by the time we were finishing dinner it was completely full. It was great to see, especially during their down season leading up to spring break. Our waitress told us about the happy hour specials after we sat down and gave us time to look over the menu, which we appreciated. We started with the BBQ shrimp and the garlic herb oysters (I believe that was the name). Both appetizers were spot on. There were about nine shrimp soaking in their flavorful sauce, and the oysters came out piping hot and just melted in your mouth. For my entrée, I had the grilled fish tacos. The mahi-mahi was fresh, and the mango salsa on top was superb. Honestly, I wish you could add an extra taco for an upcharge -- it was that good. My friends ordered the crab cakes and the fish of the day, and we all agreed this was the best meal we've had there. We'll definitely be back again before we head out

Started with the smoked tuna dip and oysters, both of which were fantastic and perfectly seasoned. I had the Parmesan crusted chicken with potatoes and green beans. It was served piping hot and simple but elegant presentation. The chicken was crispy and juicy. It was quite good. Also got to sample my wife seafood pesto pasta, this was fantastic! Taste of crab and shrimp, perfectly cooked angel hair pasta. Service was on point as well. Our server was quick, friendly and attentive. Entrees took a bit to come out, but good food takes time. Would definitely return, great family dinner spot.
