Came here after a full day of driving and shopping around Vegas. We called ahead and were told that it would be an hour wait so we put our name down and started driving to the restaurant (20min away). Before we got to the restaurant they called us an said a table was ready (we were a minute away). So when we got to the restaurant we were seated right away. The restaurant also had plenty of parking out front. The ordering here was a little different then other places we've been to. They give you a menu and you place each order with a staff member. But, like other places there were some menu items which was one order per person. So we ordered some of those - soft shell crab, LA Galbi, and Oysters. The Soft Shell Crab was humongous and very tasty! The LA Galbi was a really good portion and grilled to perfection. The Oysters were a good size with the only complaint that it was one order/one oyster per person. We let my wife have them all as Oysters are one of her favourites. All the food was really good, well presented, fresh, and tasted great. We liked the large assortment of rolls and that you could get a half order - that allows you to try without being to committed. Salmon Avocado Temaki (hand cone) were great and good ration of avocado/salmon/rice. The tempura was not too oily. There is a limit on dessert but we were so stuffed that we could only get one ice cream and 2x Melona ice cream bars to share. Staff were extremely friendly and came around often. This was good because you always had to place an order through them. On this night it was quite busy and the noise was moderate and we could still hold a conversation. The large portions, the fresh fish, ability to get 1/2 order rolls, good selection of desserts, friendly staff, and relative closeness to the strip makes this a gem and we definitely will come back again. read more

Yama Sushi - Salmon belly, blue fin & King Salmon. Chefs kiss!!!!! - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I had been to this space quite a few times over the years. I lived a mile from here for a few years. This was the most awkward and technically "bad" visit I've ever had. I don't always come at night but it was my bday and my friend wanted to take me to sushi. ULTIMATELY my service was good from the server of the section I was in. It was the host/busser that made the evening frustrating. My friend and I entered and were quickly greeted and sat at the chef bar but under the AC. I asked if we could change but host couldn't think of a spot, and went to grab items from the back. We did move to the back room, 2ft away on the other side of the small doorway/wall with the chefs awareness. I didn't get to tell the host but they saw us gone but never approached or gave us menus or anything even though they could see us through the doorway. I served for a handful of years so i quickly realized i was in the experienced servers section, they had about 7 tables all to themselves I immediately felt so bad because this server was already swamped with people and a party of about 20 was in the front room, so there was no back up for them. Maybe this caused or triggered a rift with the host? Bc we moved on our own and maybe someone thought the other did it? Either way, the host barely helped this server and almost never brought us anything or checked on us to lighten the load for the server(s). The server went hard and apologized and i felt so bad bc they were the best part of the experience (and the chefs!) someone did assist and another person, a young man came by but he didn't fire the items we asked him for, so the server had to get the chefs to quick/refire my order. My friend worked 8 days straight 10hr days and still took me to my bday dinner. She was tired and falling asleep but she didn't understand the nuance of what was happening in the restaurant, so she was pretty upset. If she wasn't tired...it would have been a different night is all ill say. read more

Yama Sushi - Strawberry popscicle and pistachio ice cream - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

It is just a okay food quality wise. I kind of doubt the freshness of the fish to be honest. Everything is midiocre but you get to try a lot of different rolls, nigiri, fry items...all that typical stuff. Service is standard. The restaurant is small and kind of smells "funny" not in a good way for this location on E. Flamingo. I don't think I'm coming back. read more

Stopped on a Sunday for lunch at Yama Sushi. Many years ago I used to eat here for lunch and decided to try it out again. The restaurant is still nice looking and wasn't very busy. We were promptly greeted and got a table. We did the all you can eat lunch option and tried a range of different dishes. What really stood out to me was a definite change in flavor profiles from what I'm now used to. While we enjoyed many items, others were definitely not what we are used to at sushi restaurants. We really enjoyed the tempura udon. The sushi was all fresh and lightly poked good with a minimal amount of rice. Anything with spicy tuna in it had a texture and different heat/spice element- perhaps the fish was chopped so smoothly that it was almost creamy; but the heat while pronounced, wasn't blended in the way we normally see it. The tempura batter was tasty, but a thicker and heavier batter. Lastly, the green tea and pistachio ice creams had different flavors that we didn't care for. The green tea didn't make me think green tea; and the pistachio had more of a syrupy flavor. All that said, the restaurant got busy as we ate - so clearly other people enjoy their food more than us. I would say the food was okay but nothing special. The service was very good! read more

The food was amazing. Very fresh and super delicious. I would say it's the best sushi place in the area. They have a huge menu, plus you won't have to wait too long for your order. All the people who work there make sure you feel welcomed and treat you nicely like you are the only guest there. Atmosphere is also very nice. 10/10! read more

My other half has been coming here for 10+yrs. Service from the sushi chef was trash. We sat at the bar. I was highly disappointed. I think it was just the sushi chef at the time. Food was great though. Will come back to try it again. Sushi was Fresh. Rolls were good.

I really like the location on Eastside on flamingo road. Plenty of parking and lots of seating space. Yama Sushi is a must-visit spot for all-you-can-eat sushi in Las Vegas. The fish is fresh, the rolls are creative, and the service is fast and friendly. Their nigiri and specialty rolls come out beautifully plated, and the kitchen items like garlic edamame and tempura are great additions. It's a busy place, especially during peak hours, but totally worth the wait. Great value for the quality you get! This place is all about better fish to rice ratio. Do t sleep on the soft shell crab and the kbbq short ribs. read more

Outstanding service, with very high quality ingredients. I was blown away by not only the portions but the selection offered on their AYCE menu. Everything from premium rolls to Takoyaki and Uni. This place is by far the best to get your fix for Japanese all around. Can't wait to return! read more

I think this place has gone downhill I don't know since when. I've been here twice before this visit and I liked this place a lot since the last time I paid them a visit maybe few years ago. We came here for lunch which limited what items we could get from the menu, that was fine since you do pay less for lunch. We ended up getting a whole bunch of appetizers and I would say about half of them were good but not super impressive. I like their baked mussels a lot. The bacon wrapped shrimps would be better if they didn't put so much sauce on them, I think they were way too salty with the sauce. I also like their tempura items. The rolls are ok, my favorite was their salmon skin roll, definitely recommend it. The service was good but it did take a long time for them to bring us our food since from the start. Ambiance was just like most of the all you can eat sushi place, a bit dated but clean. I think overall it's not a bad experience, perhaps my expectation was too high since my past experience from this place was so good. read more

Yama is located in a pretty dark and semi seedy shopping center, but the parking was ample and well lit compared to the building itself. The hostesses were great and seated us immediately where our server soon greeted us. She was quick to take our drink orders and explained the menu to us. I went with 3 rolls, and 2 sushis. Their tamago and yellowtail were definitely the highlights while the rolls themselves left me craving more flavor. I would give the food quality a 3.5/5 but the service was great and a 5/5. The cost after tax and tip was about $40 a person for AYCE sushi which is probably a little much for what I felt I had in terms of food ROI. $35 woulda been more realistic. I'd probably give it another shot in a few months but it's not a place I'd immediately choose over another. read more

Things have been sliding downhill here for some time. Last three visits, the sushi is sloppily prepared, not the best fish. Lots of rice, not so much fish. Service - orders are missed frequently. It used to be we'd be excited to come to Vegas and look forward to eating here. No more. Sad to say there are better options for AYCE sushi. I hope they turn things around. read more

We weren't informed until after my husband paid that it was dinner pricing for lunch. The salmon was hit or miss, some were super chewy and fishy and some tasted good. The service was good.

Stopped in after a day full of PowerPoint, was seated immediately. It is a smaller restaurant, at least from what I could tell, but I liked the bar that you can watch the guys make the sushi rolls. Every roll that I ordered came out very quick. I was pretty impressed with the teamwork between the servers. Son of the beach - came out quick, a little spicy, very good Superman - came straight out of the fryer, great taste Man whore - baked roll, very very good Strip tease - I ordered the spicy version, very good sushi roll read more

This was one my first AYCE sushi I've tried in Las Vegas and so I can't compare it to any others but for the price and quality I thought it was great value! We went on a Saturday night and it was quite busy. Had a hour wait. Service was great. They quickly took our orders and 5 minutes later orders started to fill in. All the nigiri was great. My fave was the smoked salmon. The scallops were my least fav. As for rolls, they have many to choose one. I'm not a big fan of fried or heavily use of cream cheese so I didn't try them but my friends thought they were great. As for other menu items, we tried the tempura udon which was decent. Broth could've used more umami. As for dessert, can't go with mochi ice cream. We were able to easily eat for the full 2 hour allotment. Ambiance is nice. They do have a sushi bar that guests can sit at. I would go again. read more

I've been coming here for over 20 years. It's my go to sushi place when in Las Vegas. I brought many friends and they've all loved it. Also we certainly come for the all you can eat special. But I like best about them is that you can order half rolls and not have to get a full roll so you can try more of a variety of cut rolls. The sushi here is always fresh and flavorful a lot more meat than there is rice so you don't fill up on the rice. It's kind of a little hole in the wall, but is nicely decorated. The staff has always friendly and they are constantly asking if you would like more sushi and filling up your drink glasses. One of the best sushi places ever. Highly recommend stopping in here. read more
