Food tastes great, just small portions on the sushi. I had salmon & avocado. Pretty clean place with quick service.

Was my fav place for many years but tonight it finally happened. All my Hispanic guys in the back were not there and my food was not only tragically flavorless but also ice cold like only some pieces got hot and others stayed cold from whatever fridge they were in (raising questions about freshness on slow nights). Sad but my last time visiting unfortunately ): read more

We took vacation and slept overnight at the holiday in near by. Don't know what to eat and saw a lot of people stop by this place. We found it surprisingly good taste. Also big portions and good price! read more

I ordered the veggie bowl and crab Rangoons. I forgot to take pictures! The bowl was a good size packed with rice, onions (majority), mushrooms. It was ok. Not the most flavorful dish. Crab Rangoons were on the large size and I considered them tasty. Not the best of the best, but definitely not an awful lunch. I ate almost 3/4, so I consider that a decent meal. Not sure I'll go back, but if I do, I will update! read more

9/12/24 I placed an order for Hibachi Shrimp and Steak. I asked for mushrooms and was told they didnt have any. So I said ok. My husband then ordered Hibachi Chicken and Scallops. We got home to only discover that his food had mushrooms. So I called back and asked why I was told they didn't have mushrooms because clearly, they did. The person taking the call apologies and tells me the next time I come in he will give me a free side order of mushrooms. Like really! Who just eats mushrooms by itself! read more

Delicious tasting sushi and hibachi! Service was very helpful and fast. It is an indoor but offers take out. We were weary from the other reviews but definitely will be back! read more

Really good food huge portions for the price! My go to for Hibachi in Smithfield 10/10 recommend

I have lived in Ny 28 years of my life and came to NC looking for a tasty Japan spot. This is it!!!! you can pick anything off the menu and it will be good. My regular order is the hibachi chicken meal with extra yum yum sauce. I gotta pause and talk about this sauce cuz there is no other place that has a sauce that comes close to how good this sauce taste. I even tried to buy it at a Asian market and it did t taste the same. I've been to this spot over 30 times and my food is over the top good every time. They give you large portions to for a good price. I would drive over a hour just to get the food and yum yum sauce. I will try to remember to add a updated pic the next time I go! Enjoy! now I'm hungry again lol. read more

If you hate Yummi Japan you're either tasteless or an entitled stain on society, this place's food will slap your tits off. That white sauce is godtier. Keep it up fellas. read more

Yummy is the word! Love the Yummy Chicken. The rice is so good too, and I love the ginger sauce and yummy sauce.

Great Japanese food. Me and my hubby come here everytime we come to Smithfield. We can't leave without stopping by Yummi Japan. I'm a big fan of their bulgogi, not all places can cook that right but there's is awesome. Their Yum Yum sauce is great too, you can order it on the side but I usually put it on the rice. My 10-yr old stepson loved it too and loves to go. Great spot to go to when you're looking for some awesome Japanese food. read more

Definitely not the best experience I've had eating Japanese. Honestly, this is the worst I've tasted. The steak was well done, I wasn't asked how I wanted it. The flavor was decent but definitely tough. The was meh at best and the white sauce was nearly inedible. The vegetables were way over cooked. The cashier, appearing to be a 30 something Hispanic male has no manners or customer service at all.....definitely would not recommend!!! read more

Placed order for pick up when I got there I asked to add two salads and was told to give them a few for the salad, that was fine. I get home and the salads are old and full of water. The get is that I waited 5 mins just for those salads thinking they were being made but I guess I was just waiting for someone to grab it from the back. read more

I picked up takeout this week and was impressed with the amount of food for the money. And it tasted good!

So the food will always be good, service isn't amazing it's closed inside and no bathrooms are open. read more

Yummy Japan - the inside of a fast food restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Smithfield, North Carolina

Dirty. Not authentic. Gas station sushi. Yuck. BTW, the spring roll isn't a spring roll... It's a fried egg roll. You have been warned.

One of the best Japan places for your money. We have been here many many times and it never fails us. The only thing is I don't recommend the miso soup because it doesn't taste what you think it does, but everything else is the best it can be! read more

This was this restaurant's inaugural weekend, so maybe I'm being harsher than it would be if it had more time. Small storefront with a mix of sushi, traditional japanese, and hibachi. REALLY limited menu and some takes on American food done in a "Japanese" manner. The weirdest miso soup that I have ever had, tasted off and looked weird to boot. The California roll tasted odd -- the most standard of all rolls -- shouldn't be odd. It made the child puke . read more

Do not eat here unless you enjoy eating insects. The place smells like dirty grease. There was a huge fly placed between the batter and the fried vegetable. The only reason I didn't eat it is because I was peeling the huge amount of batter off of the vegetable. When I went back to return the food they were closed. I will be back tomorrow. See pictures. I'm disgusted read more

We love Yummy Japan! For quick, on the go hibachi it's perfect. The staff is always so sweet. They have taken lots of covid precautions which is appreciated too! read more

Ordered take out. Way too much juice which spilled outside plate when transporting. Hispanic kid at the cashier needs an attitude problem check. You represent the restaurant. Unprofessional. Food is okay. Sushi food area doesn't look well ventilated and looked dirty. Will update in the future is my experience at this place changes. read more

When you are in the mood for some quick good steak and shrimp, this is the place to go! I wish my wife would be willing to eat here more. Keep up the good work! read more

Really the food tastes strange compared to other Hibachi food I've eaten. You pay extra for sauce (which is what makes the food in my opinion) and the white sauce tastes awful. I use to eat here years ago, and I don't know whether the quality went south or I've just realized how bad it actually was. read more

I go to yummy Japan almost every week and it my all time favorite fast food restaurant.

I agree with the others. Gross. Got the hibachi chicken and teriyaki chicken. Didn't feel bad about throwing away half of it.

I love Yummy Japan. I've been coming here for years. Thankfully I've never had a bad experience. I always get the hibachi chicken and steak. I will admit I've had better elsewhere but it's not bad. I've even had sushi from here before. Although I believe I just got a Philadelphia roll. It's pretty standard hibachi. There are a few tables to dine in. read more

I give you a 1 review since i have never been to the Carolinas and someone used my card on june 23 2017 possibly around 4pm to 5 at your smith location.. called the number and a worker said too busy and manager not available and nothing they can do... he said no online ordering so not sure how they got my card if tney have to swipe it... it was $22 would like to get the charge back and if there are any ways you can backtrack on cameras read more

I love this place. I could eat it everyday. I was raised in hawaii where there is a big japanese influence so this is the "kinda" fast food I'm used to. Their white sauce out as I'm used to calling it their "yummi" sauce is awesome on everything. Also their scallops are not the tiny sea scallops but a small/medium size bays. Their eel rolls are pretty tasty just wish that they could start serving inari. I also with they only charged extra for yummi sauce on take out orders not dine in. Over all a taste of home. read more

Not bad - I was looking for hibachi while in town on business. I came across this place, which was close to my hotel and seemed to have pretty good reviews. It was nothing to write home about. The place appeared clean and busy with dine in and take out orders. I ordered the steak and shrimp hibachi. The shrimp was alright, but the steak was dry. The vegetables were good, but made to look bigger by adding mostly mushrooms and onions. If I come back to Smithfield again, I probably will not order from Yummy Japan. read more

Tonight my family and I stopped in at the "Yummy Japan" restaurant near Smithfield, North Carolina. I ordered the steak bowl and it was very good. I recommend others adding this stop on their trip south on I95. read more

Came here multiple times. All were good except got food poisoning last night from yummi chicken.

Like the food, it is fast, convenient and good plus they will adjust the dish if I want. The downside and the reason I have not been back in a while is because the last two times I was there, they ran this horribly loud mixer the whole time to mix sauce or something in a large container near where they were cooking. To make matters worse, the second time, I watched as the mixer part was taken and put in the trunk of the employee-owner's car. Concern now is about the sanitation. read more

DO NOT EAT!! By far the dirtiest place around. All vents have gross dirt marks proof the filters may have never been changed. The trash can is covered in rust and the A/C wall unit is covered in dirt and oil. I have no idea how they have a 96% sanatation rating. Spent nearly $30 for the worst hibachi and sushi. The steak hibachi had zero seasoning along with the broccoli and zucchini mix. The rice was old, cold and had soy sauce. The sushi is not even worth reviewing. The cashier is very rude and yells when you ask for a receipt. read more
