This place is always packed, and there's a reason: It is amazing. Our go to is the bubba, yummy Yama and pan fried gyoza. It's right up there with the best sushi we've ever had. And they also have subtle touches, like they put the gyoza in styrofoam containers, and then they poke holes in the styrofoam to make sure the gyoza stays crispy and doesn't soften with its own steam. Also, they will hold open the doors for you if your hands are full with a carry out order. Such nice touches!

Sushi Yama has been my go-to sushi spot for quite some time now, especially since the decline of Sushi Yoshi a few years back. Their commitment to quality at reasonable prices has truly made them a staple in our town's dining scene. While Sushi Cho offers another alternative, I'll review that separately. One minor drawback has been the wait times for takeout orders, which used to be unrealistically long. However, I've noticed a significant improvement in this area recently, perhaps due to increased competition.Notably, Sushi Yama has recently introduced a new online ordering format, albeit with a nominal processing fee of a buck or two. While some may find this a minor inconvenience, I see it as a small price to pay for the convenience and efficiency it brings.Overall, Sushi Yama continues to impress with its consistent quality, reasonable prices, and efforts to enhance customer experience. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, you can count on Sushi Yama to deliver delicious sushi that satisfies every craving. It's definitely a must-visit spot in our town for any sushi enthusiast.

Food was wonderful and price was just right. Spent over $250 to feed 7 people not too shabby. The quality of fish was good and did not smell or taste funny. Picking up the food in the back next to the kitchen can be a little crazy and hectic. They don't offer food delivery service which is a little inconvenient.

My family has been coming to Yama for years and is our go-to sushi place. You can't beat the quality for the price. Even after a lot of restaurants started going with crazy incremental increases in prices citing inflation (e.g., $20 for a medium bowl of pho, $14 for three spring rolls, really?), Yama has remained reasonable.We almost tried the entire menu including the hot food and have enjoyed every dish. My son is crazy about their sukiyaki, my wife devours the salmon sashimi, and I rotate through the special rolls. Side note, they can be very busy for dinner on the weekends, so I recommend calling either for a reservation or to get an idea of the wait. There can be a wait to get your food too, so something to keep in mind as well. Same goes for takeout as it can be over an hour for a sushi order.
I don't know how it is possible that this sushi place is not number 1 in Vienna. We lived in Asia for a while and my sushi standards are quite high. This place has never let me down and we order often. We tried all other sushi places in the area - some are good some are worse and all of them at some point would miss the mark. Sushi Yama has never done it. Great quality. Fast service. Nice atmosphere. Give it a try. Yama is worth your time and money.

Friendly service. Not the biggest of menus but it covers all the bases. Super fresh and tasty fish. A lot of places Ive gone have issues with timing the delivery of all the meals when there’s multiple orders at one table. Not the case here. 3 people 3 separate orders all delivered at the same time. Highly recommended. I’ll be back.

Been going to this place for best friend's birthday since 2016. Every time we visit they're the most nicest staff and the quality of the food is phenomenal. There's a wait for the food but it's worth every second.
We liked the Katsu Donburi and Yakisoba we ordered. Good flavor, fair price, good portion.

THE most charming place with the best sushi. I have been following "Sushi Bob" since his McLean days and have been going to this place since he opened it. The quality is still top notch though he's semi-retired now. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants great sushi.

Wow, just wow! Stepped into this gem of a Japanese spot and boy, was I blown away! The crew here? Absolutely awesome – they make you feel like royalty without even trying too hard. And the sushi? Oh man, it’s like a flavor party in your mouth! They don't skimp on the fish – we're talking big, juicy pieces that look as good as they taste. Plus, the vibe? Cozy and cool, the kind of place you'd want to hang out all evening. Seriously, you gotta check this place out!
