What User likes about Yamaya Seafood:
Little patience is not enough, you need a lot of patience to dine here. It took me 1.5 hours to get the first dish. And reservation is needed.The food is nice, very authentic traditional Japanese food. Chef prepares every dish with his heart. Feel like I’m in Japan, lots of traditional Japanese decorations. Recommend to try if you are not in a hurry. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Yamaya Seafood:
Bad business. I'm arrived at 8:25pm and he said hurry order then after we done order he said sorry we closed , and he need reservations. And then I understand why no customers in his restaurant. Good luck for his business. Idk before when he just opened and more love for this but now I can see only disappointed View all feedback.
