Dietary restrictions: THE MAN THAT WORKED TONIGHT WAS RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL! The food had NO FLAVOR, The meat tasted like rubber! It was not even enough food for one person , and he put an opened soy sauce packed in the bag that had spilled everywhere!!! I forgot to include that !!!! I let him know my food was supposed to be cooked all the way and he started talking junk , then said give him the food back because they are closing. It would’ve been fine if he had said it in a polite manner but he was raising his voice , and walked away. He said he was “ Done talking to me”. I will be calling corporate in the morning

Get outta my house

No dine in

It's always a pleasant experience going to Yamatos. The owner always interacts with the customers and he's super nice. Hate they don't have help to open inside, but it's still the best Japanese restaurant to eat at.Definitely my go to when I want Japanese food.I'd give them 10+ stars

Came around 11:30 to pick my order up this was my first time eating here and was excited but now I don’t want to come back. The lady that rang up my food was rude and then on top of that mine and everyone else’s food was bland and nasty. I do not recommend this place to anyone, highly

**They charge your card twice and will not refund you!!** Worst experience I’ve had with this restaurant. I’ve been eating here since they opened and have never had an issue until yesterday (12-01-2023). I’ve read other reviews of this situation happening to people who have bought food here, saying to only pay with cash and not card, and I thought it was a bunch of croc because I’ve ALWAYS had great and quick customer service. All of our food was undercooked, no sanitary practices, and very rude and argumentative owners not seeming to want to correct the issue. They also tried to yank my receipt away from me so I wouldn’t have proof of them charging me twice. Needless to say, I will no longer be returning as a loyal customer.

The two that had the chicken was extremely sick a few hours later... sucks this happened cuz we always liked the food. But lesson learned and won't be going

After consuming a plate of "food" from this place last night hell opened up in my stomach. I had to strap myself to the toilet because the force of the diarrhea was so strong. I ended up laying on the cold bathroom floor for a few hours to get some sort of relief but round 2 came in and I was not prepared. I'm going to have to install new everything in my bathroom because it's a horror show. Thanks yamatos.

The man swiped my cash app card 3 times… the first payment clearly went through because it notifies you on everything.. I tried to show him but he slammed the window in my face and wouldn’t return my card… knowing I haven’t made it that far in life… after 10 minutes of waiting at the window I decided to pull off and report the card stolen, dispute etc given he wouldn’t listen nor give my food etc it was either that or jail time so I took the high road.. please do yourself a favor and “shop black” no respect at all whatsoever but in a predominantly black neighborhood… make it make sense ( when will sake express fix their building?!) better food & service hands down… stay away from this place
