Looks like there are many YAMA sushi chains in the city, but this one was bad. The quality of the sushi was bad, the way it was cut was bad, and the waiters kept trying to clear off my miso soup even when it wasn't finished. Shrimp tempura lacked crispiness and the panko was oil ladden; the sushi combination platter only had two kinds of fish, and they tried to fill it up with imitation crab rolls. I call this place a rip off. I also saw lots of empty tables but the main host was telling people to come back - I call that trying to fake an image of being popular. Very disappointing.
Pros: immediate seating
Cons: bad quality, atmosphere, service/value
