Yelp.com Review - by Robert P.

4.0 of 5 stars. From all the five stars this place has been receiving, I thought I would check it out for myself. My wife and I tried the Poke, it was a bit different. The dish focused more on the favor of the tuna…

The Best Sashimi

I have been dining at Yamato Ya since my sister introduced it to me in 1987. I have tried other sushi bars but nothing compares to Yami's. It is the best, friendliest Japanese sushi bar in Anchorage.

Yelp.com Review - by R L.

4.0 of 5 stars. The sushi here is delicious, and I consider myself a connoisseur. A big part of what makes or breaks sushi of course is the quality of the fish, and in Alaska you're really spoiled. You'll want to…

Oishii!

Their Chirashi (Sashimi on top of bowl of sushi rice) was absolutely wonderful! My friend who is also Japanese said the same. It was not only taste good, look good also. Great job! I hope the chef who made my Chirashi last time is still there today. I am going to eat it again! Join me!

Yelp.com Review - by Suz L.

5.0 of 5 stars. Ken-san and his staff are the best! I've been going to Yamato Ya since I was a kid and there have only between two price increases over twenty years. Ken-san buys everything in small quantities so…

Yelp.com Review - by agnes b.

5.0 of 5 stars. This was always a favorite of mine, but what really touched my heart was when I got my wisdom teeth out, and the waitress, who knew me as a regular, chopped up a bunch of food really tiny for me and…

Yelp.com Review - by wanugee N.

4.0 of 5 stars. I have to disagree with the other 5 star reviews. I would actually give this place 3 stars, but I will defer with the benefit of doubt that perhaps I caught a bad night here. I will tell you why this,…

Yelp.com Review - by judy w.

5.0 of 5 stars. Holy Mother of Pearl. I'm so glad I researched sushi joints before my trip to the country's 49th state this last weekend because we happened upon the BEST SUSHI I HAVE EVER HAD.

Yelp.com Review - by matt s.

5.0 of 5 stars. Welcome to the best sushi place in America. I came to AK on business and decided sushi was in order. I asked around the locals and all pointed to this place.

Good basic Japanese and full-service sushi bar

A favorite of long-term locals looking for good low-impact Japanese at an affordable price, where you can take the kids and relax. A good sushi bar for the fanatic and a nice casual low-key seating area for...

Hard to beat sushi

This is one great place for sushi. I had my doubts when I walked into the restuarant seeing that it was a bit run down. My attitude took a 180 degree turn once I sat down at the sushi bar and had some of the...

with a variety of entrees to please everyone, you don't have to be a sushi fan to enjoy eating here. chicken teriyaki ($6.50) and beef udon noodles are two of the bland selections if you are not up for the...
