A very cozy Japanese restaurant! Service was very friendly and helpful. Me and a friend went on a Thursday and the restaurant filled up as the night went. We wanted to try a bit of everything so we went all out. I got the unagidon (grillled eel rice bowl), my friend got veggie curry rice and both our mains were fantastic! The eel was delicate and flavorful, the curry delicious and packed with veggies. We also got inarizushi (fried tofu pouch marinated in sweet sauce stuffed with sushi rice) which were really a tasty treat and a few pieces of sushi. The saba nigiri (mackerel) was so good! The temaki spicy crab roll was great. I was surprised to see perennial dim sum favorite shumai were on the menu. These came out super fresh and hot with a dab of Chinese spicy mustard. Everything was just delicious. Atmosphere was nice and quiet. Golf was on the small TV behind the sushi counter. We had one of the many sake selections, the Hakutsuru Junmai Ginjo which is always great and a sake we’ve had many times before. It is very smooth and fragrant with fruity notes when drank cold. For desert I got a melon cream soda float and my friend got mochi mango ice cream! What a meal! Their menu is very diverse and has options for many dietary restrictions as well. Now I need to go slip into a food coma…

The best Japanese restaurant in town . Hidden gem, not quite hidden as this place is located in the strip mall off the busy road. The sushi was fresh, and the sushi rice was expertly coked. Not too hot or cold , just enough warmth to enhance the flavor of sushi. Highly recommend .

If you are a foodie, this is the place for you! We got rejected twice from not making a reservation and I will say, it was alarming at first… but after finding out why, I appreciate the exclusivity.

Some of the freshest sushi in Tucson. There are also plenty of vegetarian options on the menu. You can tell even from a take out order how much love & thoughtful little details go into each dish.

Had ramen and chef’s choice of sushi. Both were good. I haven’t eaten a lot of sushi so don’t really know how it rates, but we would definitely eat there again.

Chef Noboru at Yamato really adds to how special this place is. The sushi is tremendous and the people are great. The fish is super fresh and delicious! His presentation is one of the most beautiful.
