Yamagata is a cozy Japanese restaurant that offers a mixed dining experience. The sushi and sashimi are fresh, although a bit pricey. Some dishes like broiled yellowtail collar and fried squid legs are highlighted as delicious. The Omakasan, yakitori, and miso cod are also praised. The red bean ice cream is a must-try for dessert.
The restaurant is run by a Japanese owner and offers a small, intimate atmosphere. Customers praise the food quality and service, with the rice being well-cooked and the fish being fresh. The sushi omakase set comes with edamame, steamed egg pudding, and inaniwa udon. The Gindara Miso dish is a must-try for those who enjoy fatty fish.
The staff is always polite, and the restaurant is clean with a lovely ambiance. The owner and manager are very kind and go out of their way to ensure guests have a good experience. The service is fast, and every specific request is always met by the chefs. The restaurant is often able to seat customers right away, and parking is usually not an issue.
