The food was very good according to the folks I ate with. However, my California Dinner that I ordered had cucumber with the peel in the roll? A California roll is usually my go-to sushi roll and I’ve never had one where the peel was in with the rest of the cucumber. I’m not a picky eater by any means, but it actively scratched against my throat as I ate it and it was very unpleasant.

A really good sushi place in Wellesley! It was less pricey than other places I’ve been to, and the food was all really good! Not just the sushi, but also the tempura, the poke bowls, their fried ice cream, and much more! The service was very prompt once our large group actually got it together enough to place an order, and the overall energy of the place felt authentic but in a relaxed way. If you’re in the Wellesley/Needham area, I would recommend!

Excellent service and an expansive menu with a good variety of sushi and cooked food. Their udon soup is also delicious and I love the variety of vegetables used in their soups. Been coming here for years and have never had a bad experience!

We enjoyed our late night meal at Yama. Our server was helpful. For some reason some of the sushi rolls just were not up to their usual flavor. Maybe it was because we came in so late. They were about to close while we were eating and gave us ample time to order more.

it was not a good experience when we ordered food pick up online. I went to the restaurant and they did not have my order. Eventually, they found my order and I have to wait another 30 minutes. they just said sorry and did not offer any discount, extra food on house or refund. it was not good.

I usually do takeout here, and the sushi is consistently the best. It is also reasonably priced compared to many sushi places. They have really creative rolls and the fish always seems extremely fresh.
