| - After having Oyishi sushi on Wednesday, I decided to truly compare the two highly rated AYCE sushi joints.
First of all, the restaurant is a bit small and crowded. So try to plan ahead and make reservations or you might get stuck waiting in line for about 30 min or so.
The food was very fresh and tasty.
We started off with soft-shell crab, agedashi tofu, and a i love salmon roll. The softshell crab was mediocre, i wasnt a big fan of the type of batter they used to fry the crab. The agedashi tofu was small deep fried tofu in the normal agedashi broth, mediocre as well. The ilove salmon roll was pretty much a philly roll but loaded with an excess amount of cream cheese.
Next up we ordered a mountain of nigiri from salmon, halibut, garlic tuna, uni, sweet shrimp, yellow tail and many more. All were very very fresh and delicious. Comparing quality to oyshi id say they are on the same level if not better.
There were 2 key items that made yama rise over oyshi, 1.) hamachi kama and 2.) unlimited mochi. The hamachi kama was grilled to perfection and had a lot of flavor. Unlimited mochi speaks for itself.
Overall i definitely recommend Yama, if you dont mind the drive down to flamingo and maryland.
