This place was recommended by a trusty friend who has lived and traveled extensively to Japan, therefore I believed them when they recommended Yami for good sushi.
I'll preface this by saying that I am not a sushi connoisseur and just recently started trying out more sushi varieties outside of the fast food and supermarket genre. I've tried Yami on a couple occasions now for take out and really appreciate the simple menus with pictures, attentive service, generous portions and fair pricing.
This is surprisingly a very busy place even during this time of year, when I went to get my food, the phones were always ringing off the hook and the restaurant was swarmed with delivery app drivers coming to get orders.
I have enjoyed everything I tasted so far in terms of their sushi offerings and the other friends I shared food with had the same opinion. You can see the staff making the sushi for you, everything is fresh and made to order. I particularly loved the "dragon eye" sushis or those with a more "western" spin that contained chicken or beef, cream cheese and teriyaki or spicy sauces. These were total flavor bombs.
There are all kinds of varieties and the website is well designed if you want to order in advance and get an idea along with photos of the food.
Note that Yami also serves a range of Asian cuisine, popular Chinese dishes such as noodles, fried rice, veggies, general Tsao chicken, etc. We tried a noodle dish and it was very tasty but the portion was somewhat small and not meant for sharing.
I'll be coming back for sushi because there are plenty more to try and I'm very excited for whenever restaurants are fully open again, this place has a buffet and judging by the quality of food so far, I'm confident the buffet will have some great choices. read more
