Yamato Japanese Restaurant

"Horrendous experience. Hostess has no people skills and was standoffish - terrible way to greet customers. Food was an epic disaster. "Steak" was chewy and low quality and poorly seasoned. Almost like when meat is cooked or boiled straight from frozen. We couldn't finish more than a few bites before abandoning it. Dogs wouldn't even eat this steak. Avoid this place, it has gone downhill."

"The hostess was very accommodating. Our cook/chef was hilarious, and very entertaining. I’m giving two stars for service just because the place was so grungy. The food was not very well prepared, all of the meal items were overcooked and over seasoned. The dining area was very, very grungy. the walls were greasy covered with dust stuck to the grease. Every glass surface had a layer of grease. The ventilation was very poor in the place. Overpriced for the quality of food."

"The food is delicious, and Chef Jet was a real treat. He's an excellent entertainer, and prepared my (beautiful cut of) salmon perfectly. This could have been a 5 star review, but two things hold it back. For one, they were out of tofu and apparently have been for a couple months, that makes it pretty limited for vegetarians. Second, the place was very loud. Even before our chef came out, I couldn't converse with anyone not directly beside me without yelling, and the restaurant was only half full. I would only go here if you are mainly interested in the show part of the dinner, and definitely not with a large party you want to talk with."

"The staff was very nice, with good service. How ever the tables and cook area was absolutely disgusting. Keep in mind this was at the seating area and it was nasty, and not cleaned. If they are okay with you seeing this right infront where they make the food I can only imagine what the back looks like."
