" Yamato was a pleasant surprise! The chicken hibachi had a wonderful balance of flavors and the vegetables were sauteed to perfection. Portions were generous, making it a good deal for the price. The ambiance was cozy, and the staff treated us like family. I will recommend this place to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Yamato based on the reviews, but my experience was just okay. The chicken teriyaki was good, but not the best I've had. It lacked a bit of flavor and was slightly overcooked. The service was friendly, but it took a while to get our food. Maybe I’ll give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" The sauces they use at Yamato elevate their dishes! From the teriyaki to the yum sauce, everything is bursting with flavor. The staff is very friendly, and the prices are reasonable for the quality they deliver. I'll definitely be making this a regular dining spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Yamato is okay but definitely has room for improvement. The sushi rolls are decent, but the selection is not very diverse. I was hoping to find more authentic Japanese options. The service was average, and the restaurant had a casual vibe. I might come back but probably won’t make a special trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Yamato was enjoyable. The sushi was freshly prepared and flavorful. I really liked the spicy tuna roll! The service was attentive and friendly. I am looking forward to returning and trying more dishes from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Yamato for the first time yesterday and truly enjoyed it. The sushi tasted fresh and wasn't overly rice-heavy like some places I've been to. The spicy tuna roll was delightful! The service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and clean. I'll definitely add Yamato to my list of go-to places. " (*Curated Review*)
