“What a wonderful dinner we just had at YamaChen's. it was a lovely experience from beginning to end. Relaxing atmosphere, amazing staff, and of course, the sushi was divine. Thank you so much, for a wonderful, interesting, and tasty meal!“

“Perfect Spot for Friends & Family!

Absolutely loved this place! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm, inviting, and super fun — perfect for both family gatherings and catching up with friends. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, walking us through the menu and making sure we had everything we needed.

The shabu shabu was top-notch — fresh ingredients, high-quality meats, and rich, flavorful broths. They had a great selection of veggies, sauces, and dipping options that let everyone at the table customize their meal just the way they liked it. We especially loved the wagyu and the spicy miso broth — so good!

The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and had a great energy without being too loud. Plenty of space for groups, and the table setup made it really easy to enjoy the cooking experience together.

We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cozy, interactive dining experience that brings people together!“

“A great Sushi restaurant. Must try ,! Delicious food, nicely decorated clean and very friendly service. Many different choices. Can not wait to go back.“

“I visited a take-out Japanese restaurant at the H-Mart Fairfax Food Court with modest expectations regarding the quality of the food. Surprisingly, the Chirashi Salad Bowl and the Sashimi Combo were fresh and flavorful. Initially, I thought the Chirashi Bowl might be too small for one person, but it was just the right portion. However, considering its price, I found the Sashimi Combo to be relatively small. For those who prefer to dine in, there is a shared seating area in the center of the food court accessible to all the eateries.“

“Came for dessert after dinner at the plaza next door, and we got the Red Bean Bingsoo. Love that they use shaved milk, and not shaved ice 🥹 it is on the pricier end for the amount of bingsoo you get (the V-shaped bowl is slightly deceptive), but every bite was worth it.

Saw that there was a self-serve ramen bar, so I’d definitely come back here with friends next time!“

“Loved the food. I got the salmon Lover sushi entree. So much quality salmon and they have a pickled something on top of them that were yummy. Really good spicy salmon roll too. My boyfriend had the Tonkatsu (pork), which was yummy. Both were large portions - at least two meals. The bench in the booth needed repair and the service was occasionally slow, but still in love because of the quality of the food.“

“Ingredients were fresh. Sashimi was very fresh. Mafia sushi roll was the best. Spicy tuna and osaka was yummy. Dragon was alright. Wish the sushi rolls were thinner and a little more well made. The special chefs bonus at the end was yummy! Will definitely be back tho.“

“Love it here fantastic beautiful food Attentive staff A delight“

“Wonderful sushi especially the chirashi. The tempura is also delicious always crisp and not greasy.“

“Fresh, delicious sushi, amazing service and vibe check on point!
We got the best, most epic sushi boat I've ever seen in my life. The fatty tuna and the salmon belly sashimi is probably the best sushi I've ever had. The wagyu was also super delicious and we love how it's served on a banana leaf. We can't wait to try their other dishes like Udon and Wagyu Sukiyak“

“Outstanding dinning experience! We’ve been to and have had Korean BBQ, but NOTHING compares to this! The quality of food, knowledgeable staff, creative cocktails and atmosphere are what make this restaurant well worth the visit. EVERYTHING was OUTSTANDING! I’ve never enjoyed a restaurant more that Gyu-shige! AAA+ We will be back!“

“Great food. amazing service“

“Sushi Prince has the best sushi in all of Fairfax. The fish and ingredients are always so fresh and delicious. It is the perfect spot for a date night.“

“We love coming here, great ambiance and people. David the manager was very accommodating and our chef - Ryan - did an amazing job tonight. We love that they give noodles and fried rice! Also you MUST try the Tokyo Shrimp here it is FANTASTIC!! The filet mignon melts in your mouth love the salmon lobster and scallops too. Their ginger sauce, yum yum sauce, AND salad dressing are all on point. It’s hard to find a place that does everything as well as Samurai. We drive from Ashburn just to come here for hibachi.“

“I always love the sushis over there & he loves the beef bento..“

“We thought everything here was great. I enjoyed the food selections and quality. There are many options compared to other buffets in the area. The sushi options were great. There are many other food options. I like their green tea ice cream and espresso machine. The dessert collection was great.“

“Best authentic Japanese cuisine in our area😋“

“Can’t speak to the hibachi but the sushi from here is really, really good. I’ve ordered many times now for delivery and it is always great. Big rolls with lots of fish, fresh, and they always provide lots of ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce.“
