This is some of the freshest sushi I have ever had in this area!…read more Food: 5/5 I could not highlight more how fresh the fish tastes. The sushi in this area is mostly average, but this is comparable to the fresh servings I've had in Maui. Please go try the sushi. We also got the seafood pancake, which was not greasy and delicious, but noticed there wasn't as much seafood as I have seen in other seafood pancakes, more chives (which was still yummy). Miso soup and house salad was provided without us ordering it, unsure if it comes with every meal. Service: 5/5 no-frills service, food came out fast and no issues! Ambiance: sushi bar seats and tables for 4-6 people. Parking is fine, was not busy when we went. Soft music in the background. Bathroom was roomy and clean.

Overall impression? Overpriced for the quality and quantity. I ordered delivery on a weekday night…read moreand would have expected more ample portions and fresher ingredients for the amount that I paid. I ordered two vegetable rolls totaling nearly $20 for only 10 pieces. The pieces were sloppily rolled and fell apart as I was eating them. The sweet potato roll was mediocre at best. The yasai gyoza just didn't taste that fresh and were overall unremarkable. I will be hard pressed to return given a number of better sushi spots in the area.

A hidden gem in Ellicott City! We went to Yama Sushi today…read moreand I'm honestly blown away. We tried the Spicy King Roll, Butterfly Roll, and Columbia Roll. All fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The owner even brought out a sample of seared salmon belly, and it was out of this world! The service was just as amazing as the food. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. I can't believe I've lived in HoCo this long and never tried Yama Sushi before. It's officially my new favorite sushi spot! Highly recommend for anyone who loves great sushi and great people.

There were 12 of us in total (including 2 children). They got us seated quickly. We all ordered separately, but I got the salmon dinner and a yogurt soju. They did well and we will continue to support their Elkridge location since it's right down the road from us.

The chef even made us a baked salmon dish on the house, which was delish! However, it seemed like the rice my sushi was made with was part of an older batch or undercooked? It was kind of hard. My husband's rice had a better texture, more what you expect with sushi. But I could tell the fish was very fresh and so were the rest of the ingredients besides my rice. I think it was not the norm & definitely would give them another chance!

Finally had a chance to leave a review for this amazing place. Conveniently located at Columbia…read moreTown Center and accessible through the mall, this establishment is always welcoming as soon as you enter the doors. Started at the bar and had some super cold Asahi's and crispy as usual. The bartender and the staff are always ready to help. If your direct waiter or waitress is busy, another staff member will jump in and take care of you. When thinking about the food, the presentation is just like the pictures that are displayed. Note: West coast oysters are more meatier than east coast but they are not as sweet as the east coast

The shrimp tempura roll is great. The vegan ramen is also good with the green noodles (no idea what…read moremade them green) and the broth was nice too and not overly salty. It could have been more creamy and flavorful though. My favorite part of the ramen was the egg. It had a soy sauce flavor with a little sweetness. It was probably the best ramen egg I've had. The location is near the Columbia mall near main event which is kind of a trashy place. Anyways it's worth getting once in a while.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by staff and quickly seated. It's a bit dark in there when you initially enter. Spacious with lots of seating. Our server was friendly, gave us time to review the menu and checked in on us frequently. Other staff members also checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed. We started out with the gyoza, edamame and miso soup all of which were tasty and flavorful. We shared the happy together roll and warm to the heart roll. Both of which were fresh and spectacular. I really enjoyed the happy together roll, there a lot of flavors but that's how I like my sushi, packed with flavor. Ended the meal with a lava cake and green tea ice cream. The cake was moist and the green tea ice cream was creamy. Loved my meal and looking forward to returning with my family.

I ordered through DoorDash and I received my order in a decent amount of time…read more I ordered the Kabuki, Spicy California roll, and shrimp tempura roll. I tried the Spicy California roll first and was a little disappointed. The filling was a bit too warm for my liking. It's like the crab salad was not in a cold fridge so by the time it got to me it was already slightly warm. The shrimp tempura was good. Can't really go wrong with that. No real complaints. The Kabuki was just okay. The abundance of onion crunch kind of threw me off. But I liked it. Unfortunately, I was mostly full and could not eat all of it. I did put it in the fridge but day old sushi is never good because of the rice texture. I'm not in a rush to eat from here again, but try it for yourself!!!
