Yama Sushi

Don't even deal with all the fake knock off all you can eat sushi places in Vegas. This one is the real deal. So good. Kids can get chicken nuggets, she said they taste like McDonald's, idk. I know their sushi is sooooooo good, high quality, never ever had a problem. Service is amazing and I appreciate the waiters so much. Thanks for being the best.

This is the best value for the money off the Strip. Fresh seafood. Friendly servers. Food comes to table within a few minutes.

Update another great night, thank you Tony & the guys! Oliver, Gary & I had a wonderful evening! 04/13/25 Great experience! The chef's were awesome!

I didn't realize All You Can Eat sushi was such a tradition in Vegas. I originally wanted to try a different spot but some random guy recommended this place on our way back to the car (there was a 1.5 hour wait). Called, they said 30 minutes. We got there and were seated immediately. For 30 bucks, I was really impressed with the quality of the sushi. I have no idea how they get raw fish out in the middle of the desert, but it maintains a quality such that Yama Sushi could easily trade blows with many sushi spots in California. The rolls are definitely smaller, but when you can order as much as you want I don't see that as a downside -- I would just never order right off the menu. They do go a bit heavy with the sauces, but everything tastes quite fresh, especially the fish and rice. One thing they get right that I almost never see executed properly is putting fried shrimp in a roll. Normally it can taste soggy yet stale. Here the crustacean is still bright red and perfectly succulent. Also, as a random note, they were playing The Hobbit on the screen while the speakers blared Cotton Eyed Joe, random EDM, and Crazy Frog. Not sure who picked all that but what could I expect from Vegas?

Excellent service. Great atmosphere and fresh, delicious sushi. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Thank you!

Great customer service! The nigiri is fresh. Atmosphere is comfortable. Really laid back. Highly recommend eating here.

Found Yama Sushi on google so I thought to try it. Fish is top notch. However, the star of the show is the sushi chef Yuki. He knows his sushi and knows how to make it. If you ask him for a suggestion he seems to read your mind. I had an assortment of nigiri that was quite nice. Then he made three hand rolls: one with fresh assortment of fish, one with eel and tempura shrimp and one with. They were SUPERB! The fresh fish assortment one had all the freshness of fresh fish and was not drenched in all kinds of overwhelming sauces that would mask the flavor. Superb job Chef Yuki! Recommend this place 100%

Really nice local place to enjoy good sushi. The service is great, very friendly, the menu is extremely diverse, cool beer. Prices very affordable. 10/10

Yama is located in a pretty dark and semi seedy shopping center, but the parking was ample and well lit compared to the building itself. The hostesses were great and seated us immediately where our server soon greeted us. She was quick to take our drink orders and explained the menu to us. I went with 3 rolls, and 2 sushis. Their tamago and yellowtail were definitely the highlights while the rolls themselves left me craving more flavor. I would give the food quality a 3.5/5 but the service was great and a 5/5. The cost after tax and tip was about $40 a person for AYCE sushi which is probably a little much for what I felt I had in terms of food ROI. $35 woulda been more realistic. I'd probably give it another shot in a few months but it's not a place I'd immediately choose over another.

A couple years back this place was a great place to come and enjoy some sushi but lately it seems as it is going down hill. I have been back a couple times in hopes things would change but it seems that is not the case. Service has declined majorly as the servers have become unwelcoming and rude The sushi is more rice than anything to which it feels it has lost the point of being sushi. Definitely feels that you are being rushed out. I understand the time given for AYCE but to feel rushed when you are putting your first order in and through out the sitting is not it at all.

for an AYCE sushi spot in Vegas, Yama can't be beat. Not too far a drive from the strip. The quality of sushi is top notch, the service is impeccable, and it's clean and spacious inside and the bathrooms were immaculate. I was only out $25 and must have had at least a dozen different rolls and sushi.

Things have been sliding downhill here for some time. Last three visits, the sushi is sloppily prepared, not the best fish. Lots of rice, not so much fish. Service - orders are missed frequently. It used to be we'd be excited to come to Vegas and look forward to eating here. No more. Sad to say there are better options for AYCE sushi. I hope they turn things around.

Yummy yummy sushi. Awesome service. Casual dining option close to the strip. I can definitely eat here again.

I consider this places among the hidden gems of Vegas. I'm very picky about my sushi and there's only one other place I love out of the many others I have tried. Yama Sushi will go down as one of the best! I love the ambiance of this place and love that it's somewhat hidden. I tried two of each type of roll (raw, baked, deep fried) and all were phenomenal. The appetizers were tasty as well. The service was quick and superb! I also got mango sake and it's quite strong. Or maybe I'm just a lightweight. *shrug* Either way, can't wait to go back!

Pretty solid AYCE located in a strip mall on Flamingo, right by UNLV. They have three other locations around town, too. They were busy on a Saturday night, with a wait time of about half an hour. The interior is fairly small and cozy. Service was quick. The sushi and rolls are on par with other all you can eat sushi spots around town. The slices of fish were pretty good and the amount of rice is minimal. The two rolls I got were good. I preferred the Hawaii roll. Plenty of tuna for all you tuna lovers out there. The 'You the Man Too' roll wasn't bad, just a little spicy for my tastes, which overpowered the fish.

I had a difficult time deciding between a 3 or a 4. I'm leaning more towards a 3 based on quality and taste but they're pretty cheap so I guess that's like an extra half star. The positives: The rolls are pretty good! I can't remember all of them, but several were quite tasty. I love that they give you an option of a half roll as well as a full roll so you can try a lot more. The appetizers were mostly good too! Chicken Karaage, shrimp and vegetable tempura, and the gyoza are recommended The negatives: I wasn't really fond of the sushi (nigiri) that was not rolls. I think the eel was good but the rest were mostly didn't have a lot of flavor. Out of a less expensive place, it's not exactly unexpected though. But I do also feel the rice of the nigiri needs some work. Should be a little more chilled, slightly overcooked too but again, maybe not unexpected from an inexpensive place. I didn't particularly like the tiny takoyaki balls either. I don't think i got any actual octopus in mine So I might possibly come back one day, especially based on price, but i would just stick to the appetizers and the rolls next time

Yama Sushi was worth it for the price and quality. Really enjoyed this local joint. Service was quick, but you should not down what you want beforehand. $30.95 AYCE. Get the BBQ Ribs, the Baked Mussels, and Soft Shell Crab. Make sure to have your order ready while waiting to be seated.

We are from Arizona but always make it a point to stop at Yama sushi when we are in town. Today was the best service we've ever had and it was all thanks to Flores! She was super wonderful, personable, easy to talk to and fast. We did all you can eat and always had food coming to the table without having to wait. Hope to see you again Flores! Ryan & Arielle.

This was one my first AYCE sushi I've tried in Las Vegas and so I can't compare it to any others but for the price and quality I thought it was great value! We went on a Saturday night and it was quite busy. Had a hour wait. Service was great. They quickly took our orders and 5 minutes later orders started to fill in. All the nigiri was great. My fave was the smoked salmon. The scallops were my least fav. As for rolls, they have many to choose one. I'm not a big fan of fried or heavily use of cream cheese so I didn't try them but my friends thought they were great. As for other menu items, we tried the tempura udon which was decent. Broth could've used more umami. As for dessert, can't go with mochi ice cream. We were able to easily eat for the full 2 hour allotment. Ambiance is nice. They do have a sushi bar that guests can sit at. I would go again.

I just got delivery from here and it was fantastic. The sushi rolls were wonderful, flavorful, and best yet , two for one. But the star was The tempura udon noodle soup... I literally couldn't stop eating it. Will be back again and again. Oishi! Arigato gozimashita!

I stop here every time I'm in Las Vegas. I was just here Easter 2024 weekend again. This is an all-you-can eat place. $35 per person. Everything is delicious. Fish is fresh, and place is clean, and service is good. Just make sure to either come before 5 or if you plan on coming afterwards expect a wait. Especially on weekends. You can wait for an hour on weekends. My favorite is the sashimi salad. And I love the tempura ice cream for desert. And again everything else on the menu u is good. It's sushi. My husband can eat so we'll get 4 rolls and some appetizers. Again everything is good. Make sure you come with an appetite cause they frown on throwing out food. And there's a 1 1/2 hour seating limit. They also have beer and wine. Enjoy this place next time you're in Las Vegas!

One of my favorite all you can eat sushi spots. Not in the best neighborhood but original location and old school favorite. Stopped in on Wednesday night for dinner with the girls and had a great time. Not a long wait for our food and great waitress. Also stopped in a couple weekends ago and failed to review... sister and nephews dinner and was a big hit with the kids. Will be back!

The staff was very friendly. The restaurant was clean. The food was great. Had the All you can eat for 25.00 well worth it. There was a roll that had a citrus wedge on it, not sure if it was called the happy ending roll, that was the only one that didn't go down right. Besides that, everything else was really good. My favorite was the rainbow roll.

Best sushi in all of Vegas have tried them all We drive from Arizona atleast once a month just to eat here and do a little shopping The happy ending roll is amazing and so is the Harry Potter roll

Dined here with family during Father's Day Weekend. The staff were super friendly and welcoming. Though we did have a large party, we were handled with care. Food was great and the atmosphere was what was expected- fun. The only downside is the area itself. Lots of homeless outside as well as drug dealers. Don't let that steer you from making a visit. Just get in, dine and enjoy, then safely make your way back. Their Spicy Seafood Salad is second to none and is always worth the visit for me. Be back soon.

I did this last year as well, but Sakana had a wait timw of 40 minutes. Came here instead and we were seated right away. Sunday at 3:30pm, sunny and hot out. Tables were about 60-70% occupied. Service was quick and dishes were brought out within 5 minutes of ordering. Salmon, tuna, white tuna, inari sushi, ikura, masago, scallop, uni and oysters were all good. Also got agedashi tofu which I liked a lot. I do think $30.95 per person is on the expensive side but would come back. But if the price goes even further higher, I would reconsider eating here. Overall, it was quiet, attentive servers, or maybe too attentive aa they seemed to want us out as soon as possible and kept asking if we were done, but it was a good dinner after a long, hot day.

Good food and fantastic service. Newly renovated since my last visit in 2019. I would definitely return my next visit to Vegas. I had lunch and price was reasonable.

Yama is probably squarely the second best ayce sushi on the east side. I will say the one on Maryland has super fast service which is probably the best of the 3 main ayce

Every time I came back to this all you can eat Japanese restaurant it never disappoints! Soft shell crabs were crispy and fresh, shrimp was fresh and sweet!

Amazing food great costumer service!! Ambience spectacular!!! I'm looking forward to visit again!

AYCE has a wait time most of the time . And do new guest what's the time for wait time? So do I. This place has no wait time at all. As you walk in. The greeter as you. Table or bar and they accommodate us right away and it's busy Saturday night too. And the cooks at the bar, let them know what you want and they'll take care of you. And the servers are very good at following up to you. They don't bother you if you have food as long as you have food. And this place has the items that I usually get to a sushi resto. Kudos.. love to come back here...

Yama is one of mine and my boys go to for all you can eat sushi. Quick and friendly service always. And food is always sooo good. My favorite is always seafood salad, mild for me. And the superman man roll and wet dream are a couple of my kids favorites. There's so much to choose from.

The sushi was bland. We tried several different ones and unless you get the deep friend or extra spicy rolls than all the regular menu is no good. However, the was one not on menu that they have pictured on the wall that was fantastic so I'm not sure why the rest was so dull. The servers were very nice and tried their best to make our experience better but honestly, there's no way I'm paying normal sushi prices for mediocre sushi. Might as well buy one of those grocery store containers that are days old, it would taste the same.

We had an amazing time at dinner last night for my son 19th birthday! Ours served was wonderful! As I was a little worried due to the area the service and ambiance was great! They even play happy birthday over the loudspeaker for my son! It was very nice.

I walked a mile and a half in 100 degree heat to eat here and it was worth it. The inside of the restaurant is nice and clean. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Multiple people checked on me often and they always double checked if I wanted to order more food. They left a carafe of water for me at the table (I love when restaurants do this). Lunch price as of 6/18/23 is about $26 AYCE. Lunch excludes a few items like uni, but you can still pay the dinner price ($31) at lunch hours to get those options. The nigiri is awesome. They have so many different choices. I basically tried everything. They use an appropriate amount of rice and the fish is delicious. For most of the rolls you can order a half size which is great so you can try more. I had the UGT roll and Snow White. UGT was perfect love it. Snow White was too spicy. To be fair the menu says it's spicy, but I consider myself to like hot foods, but the fish in the roll was coated in a spicy seasoning. The heat was too much for me, but I still enjoyed the taste and texture of the fish itself. I wish I could've eaten more because everything is so good, but I was sooo full. I came hungry and left very happy.

I found this restaurant on the best AYCE sushi spots in Las Vegas so of course I had to try it for myself! I went to the restaurant thinking I would be able to dine in however it was so busy with a line almost out the door I decided to order to-go. I'm always a bit tickled by the creative names of the different sushi dishes sushi restaurants come up with, but Yama by far takes the cake lol. I ordered two different combinations: "YO SEXY" and "WHOS YOUR DADDY" lol. I swear I didn't do this intentionally lol. Despite it being very busy. To-go orders were dealt with and came out pretty quickly. While I was waiting for my order I had a look around. I noticed at the sushi bar everything looked clean, fresh. And arranged neatly which is essential for a sushi spot. My order was correct, fresh, and tasty! I'll try another day to dine in because I must experience dining in Yama!

Listen, y'all better go dine with my girl Flores! AKA MISTY!! I put that on everything! Best sushi experience of 2024 right here From the best band in the land, The James @jimjamlv

The DEFINITION of a locals sushi spot!! Every time I have visited the area this is one of the first places we visit. All you can eat, fast service and delicious options...need I say more?? Okay I'll say more...not only is it all you can eat but the prices are very fair, ESPECIALLY when you compare to what's on the strip! This place is on my must visit for not only myself but every time friends come into town. The service is quick paced and even with some of the largest orders you should expect to receive your food in a relatively quick time! Also this place is very much a dive in a mildly sketchy looking strip mall. The inside is clean but nothing very special. But as I said, it's all about the food here! Go and enjoy!

For 20 years I only ate sushi at one place, until yesterday ... now I have a second place to go. The place is small and tight to optimize the number of tables but you barely noticed anyone nearby because you were so enthralled by the food. 3 of us had ayce and our loved one had a la carte. The AYCE menu had a fantastic assortment of rolls with great names... the sashimi was fresh and the rolls full of flavors, textures and heat... I ordered the spicy tuna role but so caught up with catching up I forgot and wondered why is my roll so spicy ??? When I looked at the roll it was colorful, uniform and tantalizing... sure, yes I held off from eating breakfast and was hungry but I know quality through visual and taste... it looked as great as it tasted. Yes this was yesterday and as I checked out of my hotel room today I contemplated having it again today for lunch. I didn't but wished I had. Next time for sure... As the loved one said, its closer. The staff was very helpful and kind and accepted my fist bump with a smile. I was reuniting with friends so I didn't use the restroom and just was at peace and loving the food and the cool vibe. I will be back. Strip and Chinatown locations too.

After waiting for lunch over an hour at the famous place across the street, we fortunately found this place on Yelp. They had seats available immediately at the bar and the staff was top notch. Great seats at the bar and good music! Sushi and rolls were top notch my friend said, and he's eaten a lot of it when in Japan!

For as far as "All-You-Can-Eat-Sushi" places go, this place is winning in my book. We were a party of 20! We did make reservations ahead of time and we were seated promptly. Their entire menu is pretty much open game. This is not the sushi buffet type of All-You-Can-Eat. Here at Yama Sushi, you order off the menu and it's brought out. Special roll after special roll was ordered, on top of salads, nigiri, sashimi, and specialty items like fried softshell crab. The place was a wonderment of service. If an item was missed, it was being whisked out on the next food drop. We ate so much!!! It was definitely a Mountain of Sushi.... This place is completely worth it. Five stars for keeping a table of 20 happy, and providing a great menu.

I usually go to the Yama Sushi Spring Mountain location but this was closer to work, so thought I'd try it. The food was as good as the Spring Mountain location, which is my fave sushi place. Our interactions with two of the servers that we had was good. But there was a conversation by the server who took our initial order, to another that included profanity. It wouldn't necessarily bother me but it was the context of it and not what you want to hear while eating. I meant to call and ask for the manager to give feedback, but life gets busy and just realized I never did. This location is a lot smaller than the Spring Mountain location and is in a strip mall with an Albertsons and lots of parking

It's been awhile since I been to this Yama Sushi location, and I am pretty sure they did some remodeling work. I was already in the area for an appointment that required fasting, so I figured I get sushi at Yama Sushi after I am done. Plus it would be nearly 22 hours since I last ate, even more motivation for AYCE. The place looks a lot nicer than I remembered, and it was before noon (UNLV probably have not started back up yet) so I was amongst one of the first 6 or so people to be seated without any wait. By the time my ride pulled up and I left the restaurant, 1/2 the restaurant was still closed to overflow seating. So price has gone up. Biden wants to blame Putin, but we were paying more to fill up our ICE cars way before February 24, 2022. It is what it is. Not much changed to the menu compared to what other Yelpers uploaded 3-4 months ago, except only one (1) scoop of ice cream per AYCE customer. Service was good, without being overbearing and intrusive. I only remember the name of one waitstaff, and it is only because i asked. Thank you for the hospitality and letting me know of Salmon Kama as a special of the day. So I ordered the following after pre-game strategizing the night before: Double Dragon Roll - the thick, nearly indistinguishable rice grains made the rolls a total meh. I understand it is tough to give better fish to rice ratio, but why prepare and serve the sushi rice in such a disrespectful way to the other ingredients and the customer? Sun of the Beach Roll - see above Hamachi Kama - really small and looked it it was reheated in the oven. Was served really quickly. I was famish and killed it like grapes fed to Greek demigods by toga wearing mortals.. Palm Job (hand roll) - needed chopsticks for the assist to pick up with one hand without making a mess with my other hand. It's okay. Uni - pretty sad looking Giant Clam - definitely not "giant" and 3:1 ratio favoring rice Soft Shell Crab - it's alright. Sweet Shrimp - decent and good size, but only 1 piece. The fried head was a big glob of batter. Ikura - not much and also not very fresh based on the deflated sight of each roe. Chicken Karaage - decent, and a highlight of the meal. Too bad my ride arrived 10 minutes earlier than their own estimate, and I didn't get to eat all of it. Salmon Kama - the waitress (Flores) told me they have that too, and it was easily 3x the hamachi kama, and was one of the better item I ordered. Had 2 hours to milk the clock, but I was done in under an hour and hailed Lyft before the last of my order arrived. It's a good thing too, since I charged my card and signed it and left a note about the sushi rice. Anyway, I hope it is a fluke and they live up to the compliments of other Yelpers recent 4-5 star reviews. Or the chef can get to the bottom of this and right the train.

One of our favorite places for all you can eat sushi. For one decent price you can enjoy anything in the appetizer menu, traditional or special rolls, nigiri and desserts. There are 3 locations including one on the strip, but this Flamingo location is our usual go to. There is free parking in a lot right out front. Service is good and food is fast, fresh, and tasty. Our best menu choices are the steamed rice, fried rice, beef and chicken teriyaki, cucumber salad, miso soup, shrimp lovers roll, crunch roll, fried mussels and mixed veggie and shrimp tempura.

We did the AYCE. You better have your order ready. I'd suggest create a list on your phone. I felt rushed the first round of ordering but was prepared for the second round. You can also order 1/2 rolls. Took a while for the waitress to return. Most of the food came out quick but did have to check on the status of a couple rolls that took really long to come out. I did enjoy everything I ordered.

As always the sushi was on point! Service was excellent! EVeryone is always smiling, friendly and welcoming. We got to see our favorite server Mia ... she always takes good care of us! I tried a couple of things I've never ordered here before... the hot night roll, and yellowtail belly (not on the menu) the salmon belly was delicious as well. I also love the fresh wasabi. That also have a new green tea mochi with boba inside.

One of the best sushi spots near the strip. Fresh fish and amazing rolls with hilarious names. Always friendly service and fast to go service. I've never at inside, but the to go is always perfectly packed and delicious!

Yama sushi has a wide selections.of dishes. From the traditional Ngiri, spicy tuna rolls, hand rolls to their own special rolls. The servers are friendly and tentative. We have been coming to this location for more than 10 years. It's our must go vegas spot.

Here's the facts as always! Plenty of parking! The wait isn't bad! All you can eat is awesome! Lots of choices! Full menu! Minus a couple dinner only items! Clean! They are kid friendly! However my son spilled his soda and I'm pretty sure my server hated us after that! They have several ppl checking on you! Running out plates of food, grabbing your next order, clearing the plates and helping you get what you need. The food comes fast! My kids did all you can eat! They even offer chicken nuggets! The sushi was fresh! I love smaller rolls you can actually eat and I could! The rolls are perfect sizes! My only complaint is that the table we got was two tables joined as one and it kept sliding apart so the wobbly table is partly to blame for my sons drink. Also I wish the server wasn't mad at us for him having an accident. Otherwise it was a great experience and I would definitely go back! Food was cooked or raw as some was----to perfection! I posted pics for size guide! It was a good time! I'd highly recommend going! Just remember you have to eat it all or pay for what's left!

Best Sushi in Las Vegas!! seafood is all fresh and food is always done perfectly!! Cooked items are also delicious!! Very impressed with the food quality! if your in vegas this is a muat try!

Best sushi in vegas! Everything is good and they actually make a mean Mojito! I typically go to the one on spring mountain road, they are quick to get you in and seated and get the order coming right out. I love how there's not just one dedicated waiter or waitress but whoever's close by takes care of you.

I had a few business colleagues in town and we wanted sushi close to but not on The Strip so we chose Yama. I didn't realize how close it was to the university area which can be a bit shady and run down but it still worked out. We all order the "All You Can Eat" sushi dinner option and am so glad we did. We all ordered different items and shared which turned out great. Each roll had funny Vegas names and or something quirky. My favorite roll was "Happy Ending" salmon with lemon and other stuff. Yum. One minute man was different but good. It was a fried roll though. A little spicy but just right. The service was great. We had multiple people taking care of us though which was a little confusing. Lastly, the place is dated a bit but still was very busy! I think they must get traffic from both the strip and the university. Overall, everything was great. I'll go again soon with family!

We were invited to Yama to celebrate a family member's wedding. We were told our reservation was set, and they raved about the food and service. We were a little nervous to venture out, but also excited to see if we could have possibly found a new sushi spot we'd go to- it was a miss unfortunately. When we were seated, I'm not sure if the party we had contained more people than originally spoken with when the reservations were made, but we weren't seated together. We were split between a long booth, and two tables. One person took orders for drinks, then another person came and asked us for our drink orders, then again, another person came to take app orders. At first we thought because we were a party of 20, we'd have a team assisting us to ease some of the craziness with the AYCE ordering. Then, some appetizers were coming, and they kept coming, and orders were still being taken, which I thought was neat. The beginning was decent; but then we were brought repeated orders multiple times. We were able to share them, but eventually it got old. After some more ordering, and more orders coming in, we decided to ask Flores, a server what we were still expecting. When I tried to ask, my sister tried to say that we were getting multiple orders, and she rudely cut her off asking, "Well what are you waiting for?!" I stepped in and said, "we are asking because we keep receiving the same items over and over and we don't know who keeps repeating the order." We wanted to order dessert and leave, but it just took so much time to get to that point. Some of our drinks went unrefilled, and we had to ask several times for refills, some orders took a long time, and the nigiri I tried, like the yellowtail and "garlic" tuna was warm, and did not taste good. The servers we had were all rude except one who is tall, slender and has piercings all over their nose and ears, the sweetest and most patient person there. The sushi, apps, and the dessert was mediocre, the strange names were not entertaining to me at all, and the sushi wasn't even worth the wait, because it did not taste fresh at all. If Yama had no staff, or did not have the patience to serve 20, they should have said that to my sister when she called for the reservation. I personally will not be back, the food was not good, and the service left a bad taste in my mouth.

Amazing, delicious, and fresh sushi every time. The restaurant is always loud and busy but that's typical for AYCE sushi joints. I love squid sashimi and I ordered so much of it that the chef made a special squid dish just for me! It really made my day and I appreciated the extra gesture.

Food was great we tried about 6 rolls and they were all delicious and fresh. Service is great! Staff always making sure you're good whether it's their table or not. Environment is chill vibes

I was introduced to Yama about 8 years ago by a friend and we did the AYCE and it was amazing. Over the years, I have introduced many friends to the restaurant and everyone has loved it. It had been a few years and I had a friend who wanted to have sushi so I suggested this location. Bring your appetite and the price is worth it. The food was amazing, the service was quick and efficient and I've never been disappointed. Going on the weekend? Expect a line up.

Always excellent great service fresh fish, I'm a nigiri girlie and this place is my favorite. Soft shell crap and oysters also
