    We had a lovely time at Yamato on Saturday. The staff were excellent, very attentive and welcoming. We were celebrating a birthday and they made sure to make it special. The restaurant itself feels inviting and authentic. The food was incredible, we will definitely be visiting again! Best sushi I’ve had - would recommend to anyone that is looking for good quality food :)

    This is an excellent Japanese restaurant that tourist would not chance upon. The sashimi and the yellowtail tune cheek were fantastic. And washed down with cold dry sake
