Reviews
"Chef Yama-San is incredibly talented. He’s so warm and friendly unlike many other sushi chefs. His kaiseki is one of the best I’ve had in Los Angeles. My husband and I discovered Yamakase in 2020 and have been going back regularly ever since. An absolute staple when it comes to top kaiseki meals in LA!"
"Amazing food. The experience is unique. There’s only one chef in the customer facing kitchen, and the chef does everything in front of you, from prepping the ingredients to final assembly. Chef Yamamoto is the most well rounded Japanese chef I’ve witnessed. Everything he does in the kitchen are done with top tier skills."
"Special place for special occasions. Yama-san is truly a master at his craft. The menu will vary depending on season, availability, and most importantly, what he feels is needed for his audience that night. The staff and service are top notch. Bring a bottle of your favorite wine to enjoy."
"Very very special & delicious omakase. The chef is Japanese but the flavoring is very diverse & more like fusion style. Ex. he would use lots of truffles & caviar in the courses, which is rare in traditional Japanese course. Besides the flavoring, the size of each course is bigger than usual Japanese course too. The service is great and chef is also quite friendly, we will definitely revisit in the future."
"Super delicious Japanese Omakase! Definitely a feast of premium seafoods from Japan and chef's genuine recipes from traditional sushi to creative combinations. The quantity is also very impressive that I couldn't finish all the dishes. Strongly suggest eat nothing since morning prior to your reservation. Ideally, no food since the night before. Otherwise, you would not enjoy the taste of each every dish they served."
