| - For the longest time me and a friend have planned to have sushi together and finally one day after months of waiting we made it official at Yama Sushi. She loves Yama Sushi, but unfortunately I can't say the same. I've been to Yama one time previously, but the visit was mediocre and easily forgotten. My latest visit was certainly disappointing.
Yama's prices for AYCE is a little cheaper than most places in vegas at $20/lunch and $23/dinner. If you're not ordering AYCE then you should expect most rolls to cost you anywhere from $3 (vegetable roll) to $14.
Lets talk about the grubbb. I ordered three different nigiri which were salmon, tuna, and yellow tail. All three each were fat slices of dry fish and smelled fishy. The tuna was especially rubbery and I am ashamed to say I had to drench it in soy sauce to finish it. However the rolls were decent, maybe because of the sauces hiding the poor quality fish. My "I love salmon roll" had a good portion brown avocado, but I guess what can you do it is AYCE. The rolls off the special menu (the rolls with sexual names i.e man whore) were very presentable. If I were to visit again I would definitely skip the nigiri and go for the special menu items. Desserts are AYCE as well, not limited to one like other places. AYCE mochi ice cream yay, but for some odd reason my plum ice cream was really foamy.
Now to the quirky service.
Short version: quirky and confusing servers. Long wait time, forgot orders, payment problems and miscommunication.
Brace yourself for story time.
My waitress that day was all sorts of weird. When my missing party members came she asked them what they wanted to drink, but in a rude tone. Uh... okay maybe thats her natural tone. Next was the ordering issues. I tell her about 5 things that I would like to order (2 orders of salmon, tuna, yellow tail nigiri, 1 seaweed salad, and a I Love Salmon roll) and then she moves onto the next person, but wait she then tells me I can only order two items at a time. What the.. okay maybe they want to protect me from wasting food. So she then ask me if I want my nigiri first or my roll. I tell her I want my nigiri first and she confirms it with me, alright cool. My first order was my roll, what the heck, thats no problem since I still wanted the roll.. but why even bother asking me if you're not going to follow through. My friend whom ordered halibut nigiri and a roll did not get his order for atleast 15 minutes, and when it came, it was just the roll. He confirmed with her if his nigiri was still coming and she checks with the chef, "it will be just a moment". It never comes, he gives up, and just orders something else. My other friend did not receive his cucumber roll for at least another 10 minutes after my second order. When it came time to paying we split the check, one with two AYCE (mine) and the other with two AYCE and one drink. We specifically pointed to the credit card that is getting the two AYCE and a drink. For some reason they charged me two AYCE and two drinks, not a big price difference or anything... but what the heck, we POINTED out which card.
Argggh horrible service is a real killer for me, perhaps their staff were all newbies that day, all I know is they need to get it together.
