I came for hibachi since the other hibachi place was closed and I’m not sure what I got. The sauce on the “beef tips” was disgusting. Beef tips aren’t hibachi. The rice was bland. I couldn’t even finish more than 3 bites. Service was good. Sweet tea was good.

They have since renovated and it looks amazing inside. The food has always been delicious from the hibachi to the sushi I would come here every day! I used to not like sushi but since eating it here I love it!

Picked up some items to go. Spring rolls, edamame and gyoza 🥟. Spring rolls were crispy and the sauce was excellent. Likewise, the gyoza dumplings were great and included a light sauce that paired well Edamame was cooked just right, served in the shell. What a treat!

The food was just bad. My Spicy Girl was not spicy and didn’t even resemble Spicy Tuna in any way. Plus they seemed to wrap the crunch that was supposed to be on the outside on the inside towards the middle as if they were padding it to use less fish. (Shown in one of the photos) Miso soup was the best thing. My green tea was a tea bag in hot water. The Lobster Rangoon was soooo sweet that I couldn’t eat it. I suspect that there could be fans for that. This meal only got two stars for it’s presentation and for my waitstaff.

Tell me why that Godzilla/Dynamite roll from Yamato in Greenville, MS had me feeling like I needed to stand up and give the chef a round of applause. The crunch? Perfect. The flavor? Loud. The sauce? Fighting for its life to stay on the roll because I was tearing it up too fast. It’s one of those rolls that makes you forget your name, your problems, and whatever diet you thought you were on. If you know, you KNOW—Yamato been showing out with this one.
