Customer Reviews
The food was delicious. Large portion sizes and affordable prices. The sushi roll was huge and tasted so good. We loved everything we had. Our waitress was wonderful. The lady at the register was so friendly. Great overall experience!
I had stir fry chicken and it was delicious. The snow peas were crispy and the chicken was grilled. The atmosphere is very casual. The family owned restaurant is very good at making your dining experience pleasant and savory.
My family and I ate at Yamato in Middleboro a few months ago and it was wonderful and I have been craving the fried rice since then. Today I went and got some from the location in Berea and it was awful. There was no carrots, peas, eggs, or onions things that normally come in fried rice. I think they took steamed white rice and fried it. I found clumps of white rice. Most of it had no taste except burnt. I tried to eat as much as possible because I hate to waste food but it has made me sick to my stomach. The only good thing I have to say is the portion is HUGE but that doesn't do any good if you can't even eat the food. We also got an order of sping rolls which were about the size of my husband's middle finger in circumference. They had next to no filling so if you order that just be prep
We have been going to Yamato for years. The food quality is consistently some of the BEST Asian food I’ve ever had. It’s a fresher, lighter style than Chinese and compared to other Japanese restaurants in the area it’s our favorite. Like all small businesses in town the serving staff is ever changing. At times you may experience a rookie server but the food is always GREAT!!
Don't go anywhere else!!! Service was absolutely outstanding. We had been struggling with doordash for half an hour and gave up... called the restaurant 20 minutes before closing time and apologized profusely for the late order. The time of the order did not matter to them. Their service, food, and presentation, all of it was still perfect!! There's nothing worse than craving a special dinner and getting it, only to be disappointed. THIS DID NOT DISAPPOINT. We ordered the filet mignon bento box. The steak was cooked medium/medium plus, so juicy, and the most tender hibachi steak I've ever had. The flavor was outstanding. I have no other words. And the amount of food??? My husband is a large body builder framed man... and he couldn't even finish half of it. It's all the bang for your buck,
