Yamagata offers a mixed dining experience, with some customers finding it average and others highly recommending it. 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. Reservations are recommended, as walk-ins might have trouble getting a table.
The restaurant is run by a Japanese owner and offers a cozy, small atmosphere with limited seating. 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. While some customers find the quality not up to Japanese standards, the majority highly recommend the restaurant for its authentic Japanese cuisine and reasonable prices.
