Yamashiro

I had an epic birthday dinner last night. My best friend took me there as a surprise. Chef was so amiable and the food excellent. Was so full and happy with the 19-course menu. I love the local laid back atmosphere. Will come back!

Wow! What a great expansion for Yamashiro - this side is new (4-weeks old as of posting this) and it might be one of the best omakase experiences in NYC. My friend and I did the 19-course meal for $108, and each course was a hit. Fresh, balanced, and well conceived. It was amazing to watching Chef Jimmy work and explain each dish. On one hand, I’m worried this place is going to blow up and become impossible to get into, but on the other, I’m not one to gate-keep and they deserve to be discovered! Thank you Kelly, Jay, and Chef Jimmy for such an amazing experience - can’t wait to come back!

The most delicious, mind blowing omakase I have ever been to. Jimmy was our chef, and he was so skilled with the knife and knowledgeable about such minute details. He was kind enough to explain each course to us down to the exact species of fish, the cut, the temperature, and how every ingredient is made complement the flavors! He apparently studied under a master for 5 years in Japan before coming here and WOW does it shine through in his work. Wait staff was also impeccable – she was so attentive to every need, and so quietly professional. You can tell both of them have such passion. My favorites in our 16 course was the soromoro appetizer, otoro seared by oak charcoal, kinmedai, and the uni; but the courses change based off the season and the fish purchased fresh. The price is very reasonable as well for the amazing quality we received. Very very much recommend.

We had such a great experience at this omakase spot !! Would highly recommend going there if you’re looking for high quality fish in a welcoming atmosphere ! The flavors are outstanding & everything tasted super fresh.

It’s the memory you’re going to make here that elevates their omakase to the top. From personalized catering, ingenuously creative dishes and extravagant value - well there’s a reason Yamashiro has been around for over a decade. Their standout Chawanmushi deserves its own recognition for its depth and breadth. Trust me - you’ll be sleeping like a baby tonight

This was an incredible experience. The chef was amazing !!!! Music and staff were great. The 19 course omasake was a 1000/10 experience. Such as a variety of flavors and beautiful presentation. Each meal kept getting better and better. So out of this world. Cannot wait to come back!

Loved their new Omakase experience! Chef was friendly and highly skilled. Tailored the meal to our taste. Everything was impecable from the flavors to the plates! Really appreciated the creativity of the chef serving us a wide variety of flavors including otoro topped with foie gras! Stunning!

One of the best omakase’s in Brooklyn - every course is its own creative and unique experience of flavors singing in harmony! Not only is this the freshest fish and seafood, but the chef is so attentive to ensuring each bite is exquisite. I love the purism of just fish, but the subtle adjustments of adding some truffle here, caviar there, pickled yuzu, foie gras and wait for it…gold sparkles - just enhances the flavors of the fish. Not only is it incredible but the value is great. 12 courses for $88 or 19 courses for $108 with the most attentive service is such a deal. This place opened mid 2025 while next door is the restaurant from the same owners that have been around for 20 years. Definitely go check them out!
