Sushi & Sashimi Lunch combo with spicy tuna roll
Jonah W.

Ordered delivery from Yamashiro for lunch through Postmates. Unfortunately I got the wrong order! Mistakes happen though, and I'm pretty sure it was Postmates's fault and not the restaurant's. The good news was that everything was still something I would eat, and was really good! The sushi and sashimi lunch combo is a solid amount of food. There were only three kings of fish included, so I wish there had been a little more variety. The star of the show for me was the spicy tuna, which was along the better I've had. The rock shrimp tempura was good, but it doesn't travel especially well. By the time the food arrived, the tempura had lost its crisp. The taste was definitely there though. Overall, I'd order from Yamashiro again. Hopefully I'll get to try the thing I actually ordered next time.

Fried Crispy Calamari Miso Soup Seaweed Salad
Sophia C.

Great taste miso soup. Calamari were too chewy and greasy but the rest was good. I had beef and shrimp bento box for like $21 and it was a lot of food, I didn't finish it all. Prices and service are good. I will be back.

Beef Yaki Soba $12
Lisette T.

After walking by this place with our dog, we noticed a crowd and a delicious smell wafting. We decided to come back a few days later and were surprised to find the restaurant was bigger than expected! It overflowed into the back, with quaint music and a little waterfall. Ambiance was quickly approved! We ordered the house sake to share (and got another later to go with dessert). We were really hungry and started off with the Tuna Tataki ($11) which we sadly forgot to take a picture of. Again, super hungry, and it looked delish. It was perfectly seasoned, not too salty but ample pepper. There was a lovely vermicelli noodle salad underneath that was actually edible and delicious! So many vermicelli noodle bases at other places are just for show and too hard to eat. You could tell they marinated their noodles and meant them to be eaten. Bravo. After eating our app, we then placed the rest of our order. We wanted to wait since we were so famished and didn't want to over order! My partner ordered the Yaki Soba with Beef, and we ordered two special rolls to share - Mango Dancing Roll and Yamashiro Wasabi Roll. The soba noodles was an ample portion which we considered taking half home to leave room to order some sashimi, but he loved it so much, he devoured it all. The two special rolls were abundant in size and had 8 pieces each. Both were sooo flavorful and full of texture, a necessity to make sure you're not just eating mush. Our favorite was definitely the mango roll, it had so much flavor and the crunchy spicy tuna and yellowtail were just... wow. The other roll was an entirely different flavor palette with whole fish pieces, so they complimented each other really well. We had planned to order more, but the portions were plentiful, so we decided to close with just another sake and some mochi. The freshness was beyond evident. We're normally sashimi people, but with their specialty rolls knocking it out of the park and at a great price, we're excited to come back and try more of their specialty rolls. Definitely excited to add this to our favorite neighborhood restaurants list. Myrtle Ave has so many gems.

I have been dining at Yamashiro for at least seven years, and I can't express enough how wonderful, warm, and attentive the owners and waitstaff are. After seven years, it's clear that my husband and I truly love the quality of their food. I definitely recommend it!

Chirashi Sushi Special Lunch and Salmon Teriyaki Lunch Box
Kailey N.

I ordered through Postmates and got two great lunch specials! I tried the chirashi lunch special and the teriyaki salmon lunch special. Both were SUPER tasty and such a great deal for lunch. They both came with rice and miso soup. The miso soup was great! And the rice was nice too. I can't speak to how the inside of the restaurant was since I ordered takeout but I can say that the takeout was well-packaged. Even with 2 things of hot soup, there were no spills! The restaurant was also kind enough to put a piece of cardboard between my chirashi and hot salmon teriyaki which kept the salmon from warming the raw sashimi too much. In that way, service was great! Will be ordering again from here!

Beef Teriyaki Lunch Box
Walter T.

Pulled up here for the lunch school Inside , the place is tiny , not many seats . There menu is pretty big . I've ordered here the 3 sushi rolls combination. My plate was very big and lots of sushi. In my order , the pork Culet was good . A but tough . But definitely a BIG PORTION. The service here is ok . I see there do a few Uber eats - door dash service here . So that's. A good thing. Drinks come separate. And are extra. It's a decent meal here w/ service at its best... it's under $14 dollars so that's cheap for 3 rolls .

My husband had the kaishin don, I had the Ozakaya donburi set and our girls shared the shoyu tonkatsu ramen. The fish was so incredibly fresh here and the rice was seasoned perfectly. My donburi set also came with dashi broth that the waitress later brought over to pour on top of the leftover rice in my bowl to be enjoyed at the end of the meal. The broth and rice combination was really comforting and satisfying. This dish was something I wanted to try in Japan but did not get a chance to experience when there, so I was excited to try it at Ozakaya. I was really pleasantly surprised by the ramen here as well. Although the pork could have been better/more tender, the broth was rich and seasoned so well and not too salty like other places. Last but not least, the service here was excellent and efficient. I would definitely come back here the next time I visit Brooklyn as there were many dishes on the menu I wanted to try!

This place is super popular and I get why. It was packed but the service was insanely quick and efficient, which I appreciated. We shared the chirashi (9/10) and a spicy tuna roll (7/10) and it was honestly more than enough food for both of us. The sashimi is chef's choice so you're getting whatever's freshest that day. Overall, the quality was excellent. A couple of pieces were a little on the flavorless side, but nothing that ruined the experience. I'd still give it a solid 9/10 and would definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

Above all, the fish quality and freshness is excellent and the nigiri felt especially authentic (not too much rice, sizable cuts of fish done in the traditional style). The akami and hamachi belly were particularly great. The toro scallion and king salmon crunch hand rolls were also favorites. Our opinions were more split on the spicy tuna crispy rice (I loved, husband was more lukewarm) and dumplings (obviously very freshly prepared but quite fried). The overall ambience is airy, quiet and calm and service was warm and fast. We would have loved to try the cocktails as they sound really interesting -- next time!

The space is pretty large, with a good amount of tables in addition to bar seating. I split the tuna crispy rice and the signature roll set and it was plenty of food for two. The signature roll set had an assortment of interesting and unique rolls ranging from truffle to mango- my fave was the New York crunch w potato crisps on top. The tuna crispy rice was also a bit different- served as a tartare w crispy rice chips for dipping. Very crispy and tasty though! Service was super attentive and very welcoming. Definitely will be coming back if I'm in the area.

This is the best sushi I have ever had. Though, I should mention I only recently learned to enjoy…read moresushi and have not indulged beyond salmon rolls and haven't yet gained appreciation for raw fish with a bite. Regardless, it's the best salmon roll I've ever had -- buttery with a delicate, fresh flavor wrapped in fragrant rice in perfect proportions. After experiencing the first salmon roll that I could stomach and finally understanding the hype a while ago, I've tried dozens of rolls throughout the city at many price points and this was my favorite experience. It's also relatively very affordable; my meal of a miso cod appetizer (flaky scrumptious simplicity), miso soup, a salmon roll, and green tea cheesecake came to $54 + tip. The service was also excellent. I'm the sort to dine solo with a novel, want to be completely left alone, and not notice the quality of service at all. The waitress provided the feel of an independent experience while also being very attentive, pleasant, and informative. There was an art to her skill that prompted me to observe and note an art to the service I rarely do. The staff was very watchful and reaction; everyone was well cared for. I'm inspired to try something over than a salmon roll. This seems to be the place to do it. I'll also add I was surprised to read the review on them refusing to let a guest take their leftovers home. I had just a few bites of my dessert remaining, and they asked me if I'd like it boxed unprompted.

Sat us quickly but service was rude, rushed, and I did not enjoy the food…read more We ordered the set of rolls since there weren't many options, which we are okay with. They would not let us take the rest of our food to go. I would not have ordered if I knew that beforehand. 30 years of eating sushi never once have I been denied taking home food I paid for already. On that note alone I won't be back.

The spicy cucumber left more to be desired not only was it not spicy, it wasn't that flavorful at all. It tasted like just cucumber. For our main, we shared the Goma Hamachi, American Wagyu Steak, Seared Salmon Roll. The hamachi and salmon roll were our favorites. So flavorful. The steak was okay. Cooked to our liking but flavor-wise wasn't anything spectacular. The sauce it came with tasted like oil with no seasoning. For my drink, I had the margarita with mezcal. It was amazing. For the service, I wish the food had been timed out better. We had a small two top table and the food came out so quickly. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing but we rushed eating our apps because we had no table space. We had to constantly shift plates, the candle, and our drinks to make room. It was slightly frustrating.

What really put things into perspective was visiting Raku shortly after. At a similar price point, the difference in portion, flavor, and quality of ingredients was noticeable.

Since they have handmade noodles, we ordered the karaage ramen and Niku udon. While the texture of the noodles were great and broth not too salty (which is good), the protein toppings were just OK.

Overall, the dishes were just OK for how much they costed. Staff was courteous, interior design was cool, and their bowls are beautifully shaped.
