He wanted to come deliver my food to me. he said "I AM VERY SURE YOU'RE HUNGRY" (I WAS) ps instead come all way 95 asked him drop my house. HE DID to pix and gave to roommate (thought was asleep) he didn't care about the tip.. just wanted make sure I had something to eat. knowing I was writing since 7 am and was almost 11 pm. THAT IS IMPECCABLE SERVICE WITH SWEET KINDNESS ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! recommend 1000%“

“sushi best of Broward , consistent fresh ingredients.“

“We had a wonderful experience celebrating a birthday. Our server Connor gave great recommendations. The tuna pizza and the 48-hour short ribs were faves, but the miso black cod was also insane. Truly everything was superb from the cocktails, to the saki to the dessert. We will definitely be back! Note that it is a very cheery atmosphere so it can be loud. I have pictures but can’t seem to add them to the review.“

“My favorite meal at Yama is....well, there are so many. Like Yakitori, Nigiri Tasting, Tuna Tartare, Special Yama roll, 2nd on 2nd roll, Chirashi, Spicy Pork Bulgogi then wash it down with a Lychee Martini. 🙌😋🙂“

“Everything Is Recommended!“

“Thank you for making our special day unforgettable! We truly enjoyed every moment. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—we’re already excited for our next visit!

Chef Anthony was incredible, not just for his outstanding culinary talent but also for his warm and welcoming personality. The ladies on staff were so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, making us feel completely looked after. Every aspect, from the service to the presentation, made our celebration feel truly magical and memorable!“

“The food is consistently good but the “nickel and dining” is ridiculous. We were a table of 8 - we each ordered a cocktail, appetizers & main dishes. Three of asked for a shot of lime juice on the side of our cocktails - not additional alcohol - lime juice and we were each charged an additional $1.00 per shot. Why? Did it really cost the restaurant $3 for three small portions of Roses lime juice? Should have just been complimentary“

“This was my second visit to this place. I enjoy the taste of the rolls and edamame. However, the calamari was rubbery this time, and they brought the wrong rolls instead of the ones I ordered. I’m not lowering the rating because the bartender/waiter offered to fix the order, but I declined since there were only 15 minutes left before closing. I understand the staff might have been tired. I also received a complimentary beer, which was a nice gesture — the customer service is good.

As for the atmosphere, I give it two stars. I understand it’s meant to be an authentic spot and it looks great in photos, but in person it feels quite cluttered. The posters are faded and could use an update, and the place would benefit from being a bit cleaner.“

“My usual purchases:
1) The Chicken And Shrimp w/ white rice
2) Chicken Teriyaki w/ fried rice
3) Crab Rangoon

Their chicken and shrimp are NEVER EVER dry; the teriyaki sauce is sweet and savory; they use GOOD jasmine rice that heats up well the next day for leftovers (not cheap hard rice);
And their crab rangoons are LOADED with cream cheese (they don’t skimp out on filling); they give you a CONTAINER of yummy duck sauce with it; with extra packets in the side.

They also give you a PUNCH CARD, so after 6 orders, you get one full sized chicken teriyaki with vegetables and rice for FREE.

I love their consistency with their food quality. It’s what makes me drive out of the way to get their food.
