Yamato Hibachi and Sushi

What a wonderful experience at the sushi bar with our sushi chefs and our server!! Our food was very fresh and delicious, sushi chefs recommend a lot great sashimi and sushi choices portions do not disappoint. Has a full bar and great vibe, we will definitely be back the next time we visit Victoria!!

Great ambiance and food. I enjoyed my drink at the bar! Went with a friend on the weekend and we had a great time!

We found this gem taking my dad out for his birthday lunch! We came all the way from Cypress. We had a blast! Yoshi was our habachi chef. He was friendly and turns out he knew some of our relatives! The restaurant was clean and aesthetically pleasing. Food was great! The highlight was the lobster tails! They brought out a complimentary birthday dessert for my dad and let him hit the gong! Thank you Yamato for helping us celebrate my dad!

Great service, chill sit down atmosphere Loved the sushi Price was reasonable Portions so big had yo get a to go box

Had an awesome time at the hibachi, great cook ! Food was delicious, very nice and clean building, service was great .. will return soon!

we didn't get to the food because we left. we got there and the setting service was faster then expected and then we ask to sit in the center of the open table and they said not if other people show then proceeded to seat people where we had asked for 10 minutes before. i'm not sure if i dont understand how it works or anything but i feel like if you get the first you should get to PICK your seat.

Service was impeccable. We never had to look for our server she was always attentive. Food is always amazing!!!! From the people in the kitchen to the servers up front EVERYONE is very accommodating. Bar tenders Nicole and Drew were also very accommodating and helpful. Drinks are good and the restaurant is always clean with a great atmosphere!!!

Not off to a great start. Sat us and then made us move. AC is dripping all over the walk ways. That can't be sanitary. Food was great. Staff was undertrained and caused the seating issue.

Food is great but service is horrible, specially with the to go waitress. She is completely unwelcoming and looks at you crazy when you ask for anything extra. She will continue to not get a tip from me until she gets those eyebrows under control. Think of it as my reward for having to interact with you

This review is for Yamato Sushi. Haven't tried the Hibachi room. That being said, Yamato's sushi is FABULOUS.My wife and I love sushi. We've eaten at Uchi, Nobu, and many other fine sushi joints around the country. For my money, Yamato is right up there with the very best.Yamato (in Victoria, TX) happens to sit half way between our home and the Texas coast. Each time we drive to the coast, we make a point to stop at Yamato. We are consistently amazed at the quality of the sushi - regardless of what we order.One tip: Try Yamato's version of Jalapeno poppers. They are stuffed with crab meat and fried in a tempura batter. Then they are sliced in half length wise, making them easy to eat. Without a doubt the best popper appetizer I've ever tried.Don't let the location (strip mall facing Highway 77) fool you. Yamoto is one of the very best sushi experiences you will ever have. Even their simple spicy tuna roll is going to blow you away.
