The best Japanese food near me, and possibly in all of Gresham that I've had so far. We ordered the teriyaki chicken with some nigiri and it came faster than a blink of an eye. The servers are sweet and kind and always check up on you. The food is delicious and very quality. Worth the price! And friend and family friendly. read more

Yami Sushi & Teriyaki - Amazing meal - Japanese Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

This place is probably the sushi I've had they are wonderful and always have great service when open

Great sushi! We've been here plenty times and loved it every time. Great yakisoba!!!! We like it with shrimp! They lightly deep fried the shrimp and it's soooooo good!! Tried their spicy ramen once and it's good, but it's not Japanese ramen, more Korean. read more

Yami was my first experience with Sushi and I was really surprised how much I liked it. We ordered the Jalapeño tempura for an appetizer and they were absolutely amazing. For my first actual sushi experience, I ordered the Golden Cali. Think of a traditional California roll that has been lightly deep fried. Yes, it was absolutely spectacular. So why am I taking a star off? The service at Yami is incredibly slow. Most of the time when we needed water or anything for that matter, our waiter was behind the counter on his phone or somewhere in the back. The restaurant wasn't super busy and the poor service was completely uncalled for. The food here though is so good that it's worth putting up with if you have the time and patience. read more

This place is very good the service is reasonable. And the prices are great for the quality i would recommend the nigri salmon great quality of fish. I would also like to recommend the veggie tempera very delicious especially the souce for it. Great for a light lunch. read more

Yami Sushi & Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

See all

Service is amazing and food is the best! I think this place is the thing I miss the most in this whole covid mess.

Mouth-watering dishes, great service, great prices. What an awesome find ! An under appreciated hole in the wall right in our neighborhood. We will definitely be going back. This is now our new favorite place. read more

They're finally open again!!! Only for takeout but still one of the best sushi places around.

Ordered to-go from Yami off the recommendation from a friend for a celebration and, after being blessed by the tenderness and flavor of their marinated kalbi, felt compelled to leave this review! The food was delicious and the service was so friendly. It's honestly the go to especially if you've been craving kbbq since pandemic hit and restaurants were closed for a while. And if you are real about your kbbq and eat ALL the meat and cartilage around the short rib bones, this is HIGHLY recommended - it basically slid off the bone and was suuuuper tender. Will definitely be getting more food from here! read more

Not a very good variety of dishes. Overpriced. $5 for a fountain soda... husband said sushi was good. Service was good and the place was clean. read more

I can't rate this restaurant as I never got a chance to eat here. Wish when we had looked it up that it had indicated it was closed on Sundays... or maybe they were too busy to answer their phones. We ate elsewhere. read more

Hmm, I just came home from having a terrible lunch at Yami Sushi and decided I would check out the yelp reviews. Imagine my surprise when they were mostly 5 stars!! I thought I just had the worse meal I have had since I moved to Portland 6 months ago from San Francisco. Since I arrived I have had some of the best food I have ever had and this place just did not measure up. I can't recall the name of the roll I had but it was so salty as to be uneatable. I ate just two of the pieces. I also had the teriyaki bowl. The chicken was tough and the teriyaki was just not that flavorful. So, bottom line, I will not be going back. I am giving them two stars instead of 1 because the staff was extremely friendly and that I appreciate. read more

Honestly I really liked their food till now . Costumer service is really rude. A guy that works there came up to us, and told my mom to go re-park our van somewhere else, not professional at all!! Never going to eat there again. I was not going to even rate it, because of how rude and unprofessional the guy was. read more

We came here on a Monday on a bigger van and there was many parking spots open and we come in and one of the employees there came up to my mom and said to repark somewhere else in a rude way. My mom had to park all the way at Walmart okay if there where no parking spots I get it but there were many open . And that I find was so unprofessional. My mom walked back and she looked like she was about to cry :/ and we just left without even eating the food the mood was way too killed. Will never be eating here read more

Very good sushi! And the service is pretty good too. They're fast and convenient. I go here frequently :)

It's hard for me to post such a low review for a restaurant that has such good food... But the experience you will have here is abysmal at best. The service is terrible which is why we consistently get take out. If you arrive less than 30 minutes before closing time they will not even seat you. It doesn't take me 30 minutes to eat sushi! When we get takeout they usually mess up our order. By usually, I mean they have given us the wrong food six times. Then they argue with you about what you ordered even though they read it back to you after you originally place the order! Seriously? Just give me what I paid for! We have learned our lesson: if we don't check what they have given us before we leave it will inevitably be wrong. We continue to order from them because the sushi is just so good! And quite a good deal considering the quality. Keep the chefs, get better people to take my order at the counter or on the phone, and servers who know how to serve. I would love for this place to stay in business for a very long time, but the service model they embrace doesn't seem like a winner Food gets 5 stars Service get 1 read more

Food is really good! Sushi is just amazing! I would give 5 stars but one of the older ladies is always giving dirty looks and doesn't seem very friendly. read more

SOOOO good! I have been going here for the past year and have never been disappointed. Great family and employees and their sushi rolls and specials rock. Oregon rolls are bomb dot com and they're a great place for delicious sushi. Do not be deterred that they're in a little plaza because you can dine in or eat out! Thumbs way up :) read more

Yami Sushi & Teriyaki - Salmon roll - Japanese Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

The service is kinda mean. The food is good though. I get a stingy vibe from manager or owner of the restaurant.

Great sushi. Try a volcano roll. All specialty rolls are unique and delicious. Service is great. Wonderful family environment. Unlike most sushi places no tv which my family prefers. read more

It is a refreshing change to talk about a restaurant that is actually worthy of a good review. This new Japanese Bistro is called Yami Sushi and Teriyaki and it is one of the best Sushi, Teriyaki and Japanese Bistros in the Greater Portland area. After living in Japan for over a year and falling in love with both sushi and teriyaki, I have searched in vain for comparable Japanese cuisine. However, Yami Sushi and Teriyaki was a breath of much needed fresh air. The slight differences between different sushi restaurants may seem small, but the subtle differences are truly what separate mediocre sushi to the truly extraordinary. First, the freshness of the fish and other ingredients at Yami Sushi and Teriyaki was truly unparalleled. Even my children in elementary school loved the sushi! Next the rice was authentically seasoned and complemented the various kinds of sushi extremely well, creating a tasty harmony. Another appealing surprise was the affordability. In our group of 6 adults and 4 children there was something that everyone, including two vegetarians and one very picky child loved. =) The first thing that stuck out was the presentation of the creative, beautiful rolls comprised of raw, seared, or fried salmon, tuna, prawns, and more. Next the charbroiled teriyaki chicken and short ribs were equally delicious. The wide variety of Sashimi (sliced assorted raw fish) signature rolls and grilled foods convinced me to never again settle for sushi served on conveyer belts. Lastly, the service was spectacular. Although it was busy, our waitress answered all one thousand of not just our questions but our children's as well, all with a cheerful smile. Lastly, cleanliness of tables, windows, utensils, countertops, floors, facilities, etc. were very clean. The waitress said that this was their grand opening last week and all of the furniture and decorations (which were very cute) were brand new, so the level of cleanliness was absolutely pristine. I normally don't write reviews but I was truly impressed by the atmosphere, service, cleanliness, and most of all the food. I would recommend this restaurant to couples, families, or even single diners. Whether you only have a 15 minute break before heading back to work or an hour to dine and socialize with a coworker or friend, the sushi bar is an extremely delicious, efficient, and healthy way to spend your afternoon lunch. Perhaps the most important aspect of this contemporary bistro is use of the freshest ingredients and absolutely no use of MSG. Not even a minuscule of flavor is sacrificed even though the food is extraordinarily healthy. read more

The food is fabulous, the best I think in our area. The decor is nice, the staff is super friendly. The thing that impressed me the most (besides how good the food is) was the presentation. Everything is so pretty, you almost don't want to eat it. The sushi rolls come out looking like dragons or Caterpillars, its absolutely amazing. I would eat there ever chance I could, but it is on the spendy side. My daughter and I ate dinner one night and the ticket was just over $30. It was totally worth it though. We have been a handful of times since they opened, and we will continue to return. read more

The sushi quality wasn't bad compared to the sushi I usually get back home in Sacramento. It was a lot better than the sushi I have tried from Sushiland. The service wasn't all that great that is why I am giving it 3 stars. The lady that helped us seemed like she didn't want to help us. Our food came but we didn't have any utensils. I asked for chopsticks and she gave one. So I asked for more since there was 5 of us and she didn't say anything to me as I was standing next to the chopsticks. She just grabbed 2 chopsticks, walks by me and places it on the table. I will probably look for another sushi spot next time I'm in town. I am big on Customer Service. read more

Really good food. The staff is delightful and the place is spotless. Try the "Monkey Brain" appetizer and the St Helens Roll. Yummy!

Nice reasonable priced sushi. The only complaint I have is the rolls are a little large but other wise good.

I grew up in Gresham, moved away when I was 18, and just returned a few months ago. Never in my 28 years has there ever been--or could I ever have predicted--a sushi restaurant to be good in Gresham. Gresham has delicious local fare, there are some good coffee shops, and Jazzy's, but nothing more. Yami does a great job of mixing things up and they make good food. The rolls are a bit large and unwieldy, but they're tasty. I also had the spicy teriyaki. Very spicy but delicious. read more

I'm so glad there is an amazing sushi place in Gresham finally! Very good taste and creativity! The sushi chefs obviously know what they are doing. read more

Came here for lunch with 12 people. Serve was attentive and helpful. Since we had so many people, the owner gave us complimentary appetizers to help with our wait. The food was good and was pretty big. I don't like cucumber so they substituted it with avocado for me. Will be back read more

Food is good. A little pricey but it's hard to find good sushi on the east side so we pay it. However, the service sucks! We got seated in the back of the restaurant. We have small children so it's nothing new to us. What isn't ok is ignoring us for 15 min before we walked out. No water. No saying we are busy but we will be with you soon. We got nothing. We won't be back which is too bad since the food is good. read more

Great sushi for a great price! Best sushi in Gresham! I came here with my youth group and it was amazing! We got chicken teriyaki and mochi! Chocolate, mango, green tea, and also strawberry. Delicious food for a great price. Come check out yami sushi if you are in the neighborhood! read more

Came with a large group of 10-15 people. Service was great! Food came out fast and chef gave us complimentary dishes. Sushi and teriyaka both tasted great. Would highly recommend for people who love teriyaki and good service. read more

I have lived with a Japanese family in my past, for 5 years. To say I'm a sushi snob is an understatement. I was beyond impressed, surprised and so grateful to find this hidden cornucopia of Real HIGH Quality Sushi, legit. I can't wait to go back!!! YES read more

Good sushi in Gresham? YES! Yami not only has fresh and beautifully presented sushi, but the have really friendly staff as well! If you're in a lunch break, they'll have a delish chicken teriyaki bowl put together for you in under five minutes - even if you don't call ahead. While I have only sampled a small section of their menu, I never had a bad meal here. Nor I have I had bad service. Give them a try! read more

So I am not a sushi snob but I've had the privilege of having good and fresh sushi. I am normally a sashimi lover; however when I asked if they had it bc it wasn't on the menu, I was told they are prepared on the morning-otherwise not fresh. The food is over salty and has way more rice than needed. It's good for those that don't eat sushi often or that drunk or high night when the craving is just that. read more

Such good sushi!! We've come 4 times since moving to the PNW. The sashimi deluxe is beautiful and amazing cuts of fun fish. The BSC scallop roll is so decadent!! Anything you get will be delicious. Staff is friendly and didn't mind cleaning up after our 18 mo. Old when she spilt water everywhere. Great atmosphere, quality of fish, price and service. What more can you ask for??? read more

I had super spicy tuna roll and it was some of the best sushi in east county. Friends had teriyaki chicken and they all liked it. I think the star is the sushi and I will definitely be back with my better half soon. Make sure you come here and try it. read more

It's hard for me to decide the number of stars. I loved the nigiri--hamachi and salmon--very fresh snd generous portion. The miso was tepid, but tasty. My mother-in-law really enjoyed her beef bento box--especially the crispy gyoza. The staff is super-friendly. But--I cannot adequately describe how horrible the loud loungey smarmy music is--so distracting. WAIT! Edit--within seconds of me posting this review, they turned it off. The crowd roars! 4 stars!!!! read more

Very impressed with the service and food quality... which is HUGE when it comes to raw fish! Quality is everything! We are new to the area and will definitely be back for date nights! read more

Came here on a whim when I was craving sushi. It is SO good. Darlene was super nice and very attentive. The food was great and they gave thick pieces of nigiri which was very fresh. Prices were good too! I'll definitely be back. read more

Fast service, great food and reasonably priced. Sushi and sashimi is fresh and made to order. We have only done take-out. Def making it a regular stop! read more
