Delicious wagyu and excellent service.
I’ve been coming to Yamaya for years, back when dinner was the reason to visit. The quality of the beef has always been solid and while I still think places like Manpuku are a little more memorable, Yamaya has never really disappointed me.

Yamaya Japanese Wagyu & Grill offers a delightful dining experience where customers can cook their own fine meat to their precise liking. The restaurant is praised for its excellent customer service, quality Japanese BBQ, and a wide selection of soju and sake. Customers recommend the American Wagyu set and stewed beef tongue, which are described as delicious, tender, and flavorful. The dimly lit dining room is clean and tidy, and servers are friendly, professional, and accommodating. While side dishes such as Moyashi Namui and Green Salad are refreshing, the different cuts of wagyu are simply delicious. Highly recommended dishes include the crunchy Chef's Cut Tongue, the juicy Premium Short Ribs, and the Outside Skirt.
