About Yama Sushi

Yama Sushi is a Japanese restaurant located at E Main St, #5, Denville, New Jersey, USA. While categorized under a Chinese Restaurant platform, Yama Sushi specializes in Japanese cuisine, particularly sushi and sashimi. They offer a dine-in experience and likely takeout services.

Customer reviews provide insights into the dining experience at Yama Sushi. One reviewer consistently enjoys their visits, noting a "warm smile" upon arrival and a "relaxing atmosphere." They appreciate sitting at the bar to watch the chefs carefully prepare each roll. The food is described as having "well balanced rolls" with "high quality fish," with the salmon being particularly noteworthy for its melt-in-your-mouth quality. Special rolls like the "haru" and "Yama special" are consistently satisfying for this customer, who looks forward to future meals at the restaurant.

However, another review offers a cautionary note for lunch customers. This reviewer found the lunch specials to be smaller portions than expected. Specifically, an $18 chirashi lunch was described as having barely half a cup of rice and very thin sashimi slices, leaving the customer hungry shortly after eating. Despite the smaller portion, the quality of the fish itself was acknowledged as "very good." This suggests that while the ingredients are fresh and of high quality, the portion sizes for lunch specials might be smaller than some customers anticipate.

Based on these reviews, Yama Sushi offers a pleasant and relaxing environment where customers can enjoy watching the sushi chefs at work. The restaurant is known for its high-quality fish, especially the salmon, and its well-crafted special sushi rolls. However, potential lunch customers should be aware of the possibility of smaller portion sizes, as indicated by a recent review.

Currently, no specific promotional information for Yama Sushi is available online. Local users in Denville, NJ, seeking a Japanese dining experience with fresh, high-quality sushi in a relaxing atmosphere may find Yama Sushi appealing. However, those considering lunch specials may want to inquire about portion sizes.

Every time I come to Yama sushi I am always greeted with a warm smile and quickly sink into the relaxing atmosphere. I sit at the bar and watch the chefs as they patiently craft each roll. My food arrives and I enjoy the well balanced rolls containing high quality fish. The quality of salmon stands out in particular, satisfyingly melting in your mouth. Their special rolls such as the haru and Yama special never disappoint. I look forward to my next meal at Yama sushi

Lunch buyers beware.: The lunch specials is NOT a full portion of food and you will be hungry shortly after. I assumed an $18 chirashi lunch would have included enough rice and fish to sustain me but I was wrong. It had barely half a cup of rice and the thinnest sashimi slices I’ve ever had. The quality of the fish was very good however.

I love Yama food and the service! Been a regular for a while and the business is owned by a Korean family that offers delicious/fresh fish!

I travel to Japan frequently and Yama Sushi in Denville is my favorite in the area. The quality of the fish is high and they really care and take the time to develop artistic creative maki sushi and rolls which are not just the standard you normally find. The employees are great along with the service.

This place is a cute little restaurant in the center of Denville where there is ample other places, shops and sights to see. The sushi here is amazing with the service being just as amazing as the food. The variety of rolls are so hard to choose from while you can have a view of the counter where they prepare your meal. I come here often and was never disappointed. If anything, I was shown a new type of fish (eel) that I have never tried before and absolutely fell in love with it. Thankful for this sushi spot and the experience to open up my tastebuds.
