Poke Yama Reviews
I absolutely love Sushi yama. I've been coming here since they've opened. This is the first place that introduced me to sushi. I've never had a bad sushi here.
My husband and I came here for an omakasi for our anniversary. Chef Rick and all the staff were extremely nice and personable. The food was absolutely amazing and probably the best food that I've ever tasted. We are already planning our next omakasi with them!
All I wanted was a rainbow roll without rice. The hostess said, no problem and took my $17.00
40 minutes later, she said they can’t make it and I’d have to wait another 15 minutes.
Terrible service from this place.
So we ate at Sushi Yama for Valentines Day last night and was highly disappointed! We have ate here several times before as it is usually one of our top sushi restaurants.

We waited over an hour for our sushi rolls and still didn’t receive all our food! We were almost late to another reservation we had planned that was 2 hours after...read full review

Poke Yama, located on Main Street in Travelers Rest, offers a wonderful ambiance with industrial decor and ample seating. The restaurant is popular and has a pleasant atmosphere with nice music. While the sushi is good, the hibachi dishes are highly recommended. The chicken and shrimp are cooked perfectly, and the veggies and rice are very good. The lunch specials are reasonably priced, and the service is excellent, with attentive waitstaff. The spicy tuna roll could be improved by having the spicy sauce throughout. The mochi is a tasty dessert option. Customers love the sushi, with one describing it as "exceptional" and the "best they've ever had." The omakase experience is also praised, with customers saying the food was "absolutely amazing" and "the best food they've ever tasted." Overall, the Poke Yama experience is positive, with good service, ambiance, and delicious food.
