Sushi Yama is too good to pass up; it’s where art and food
intersect creating an adventure for both eyes and palate. No wonder this bistro
draws crowds all year.
Located in the Garden Square Shoppes, Sushi Yama exudes
freshness; there is no hint of raw fish in the air. After being seated at the sushi bar we were
mesmerized by beautiful plates of raw fish being assembled with vegetables artistically carved into flowers and other ornaments. Pleasant staffers obviously enjoyed our
appreciation for their skills.
A Spicy Krab roll
with cucumber and spicy mayo, and a Krab Tempura roll with avocado and
cucumber were enough dinner for two (and at less than $12 each, a bargain)
but we wanted to sample a chicken stir fry heated up to a three on the spicy
scale. It was as delicious as the fresh salad served with peanut dressing.
It’s all here: sushi rolls, sashimi, temaki—cone shaped hand
rolls—tempura chicken or fish, whole red snapper, beef entrées, vegetarian
fare, noodle dishes, bento boxes … and glorious desserts. The staff is as warm
and friendly as the atmosphere is sophisticated with its white leather chairs
and subdued lighting.
Some say those boats of sushi amid beds of vegetable art are
made with each recipient in mind. It’s
hard not to believe. They try that hard to please.
