Yame Sushi

Big lover of sushi, let alone all you can eat sushi. How amazing is it that there happens to be an all you can eat sushi restaurant near my office? Me thinks not. This wasn’t my first at Yame but it may be my last. The selection is weak. Where’s the variety? Thank god they were quick to refill our waters because I watched my sushi sit on the counter for a lengthy amount of time before it made it to the table. Come on, a restaurant can’t run on water refills and delicious mints. We asked for the bill three times until we had to get up and pay ourselves. I know the rule, eat what you order or make your best effort — but we were yelled at to finish everything we ordered and then charged extra because we couldn’t finish due to the fact we were late getting back to work because of the slow pace, garbage service. I get uncomfortable when people I know raise their voice, so let me tell you about how I feel when strangers who are serving me my lunch raise their voice — horrified.

Had a great time last week. The food was fresh and tasty. The service was good. We didn’t have to wait long at all. Will go back again.

Pros: fresh food, big menu
Cons: not the friendliest service, not the tastiest place to get sushi in Oakville

Located in Kerr village, this place is always busy! It’s clean and friendly! They are careful with my dairy, nut and egg allergies! Thank you! My young is pleasantly on fire from the fresh wasabi!

This place is reasonably priced and their sushi is delicious! I come here all the time and I’m never disappointed! The only thing I wish was better is the dessert menu, not a lot to choose from compared to other all you can eat sushi places I’ve been to. Still a great spot for a yummy lunch or dinner! The service is always great too!

Other than the seaweed, everything else was great. Friendly staff and fresh food. Their menue items are a lot better than the ayce options but still one of the best ayce around. So maybe try them. PS the ice cream is actually ice cream if you know what I mean.

Better than most ayce experiences. Service is a above average — not great but better than most ayce. The offerings a decent; the quality and craftsmanship is above average as well.

My partner and I love this place. The sushi is always fresh and delicious and, arguably, the best sushi place in Oakville. The staff is surprisingly fast for a sushi place and very friendly. Go here and you will not be disappointed. I would also suggest going for dinner because the extra price is definitely worth it.

I tried this place when it first opened a few years ago, and I thought it was okay. Stopped by on Friday night and were pleasantly surprised. Food quality was good, place was extremely clean, and service was attentive and pleasant. Why not 5 stars? Some of the sashimi was cut a little too thick, not a big deal; however my personal hate is a tv in a restaurant. I will be back to this place, and if I am feeling bold I will tell them I deducted a star because of the TV

Decent AYCE for the money! Loved ordering tempura by vegetable type — ie: I only want broccoli and sweet potato. Vegetable Udon soup was good; skewers were OK but I wish they had a kushiyaki other than chicken teriyaki.

I came here 10 times within a year. The all you can eat is the best thing! The sushi pizza was a huge disappointment though, but I’d still give out 5stars.

I wish there were half stars but 4 it is.
This place we popped in for lunch, I must say for the price you pay it was quite good! Service was kind, polite and fairly quick.
Good tasted good, and I really only had an issue with the décor of the inside a bit dated and could use some renovating. Overall a good experience. I haven’t been for dinner but on a weekend lunch being ayce at 14.95 I have no complaints at all!

This review is purely based on takeout as I haven’t actually eaten in the restaurant. I got takeout only once and it was not a good experience.
I got vegetable tampura, salmon sashimi and spicy salmon roll. The tampura was a little on the greasy side and the sashimi was definitely not the best I’ve had. I did enjoy the spicy salmon rolls, but found them to be on the small side — like the size of the ones from typical all you can eat restaurants.
Down side of the entire experience is I ended up horribly sick all all evening/​night and was fine by the next morning. Needless to say, I haven’t been back.

While visiting my grandfather in the hospital, my husband and I wanted to have sushi for dinner. Luckily Ami Sushi was closed, otherwise we would have never ended up at Yame Sushi. Try the grilled enoki mushroom with butter. It was so good!
Tempura was a bit oily, but still good.
Oh, and the chopped salmon sushi pizza was okay, but would have been better without the peppers.

Why is Unilocal awesome? Because when you visit an unfamiliar place and don’t know where to go, Pick the place with the highest review and it will not dissapoint. This is usually the case, but definitely NOT for Yame Sushi…
Visiting my friend all the way in the other end of town, she was craving sushi so of course I would use my handy-​dandy Unilocal app to see where I can get the best sushi around the area. Maybe because there isn’t too many selection for sushi in the area, Yame sushi popped up first on top of all its competitors so of course I picked it, no questions asked.
When I first walked into the restaurant, I felt very out of place which NEVER happens because I’M ASIAN! The place was swamped with oakvillians so I was a little skeptical… Not to bash on Oakvillians but I think us East side would be more familiar with the food.
I was not impressed with anything they served infront of me. The selections were VERY limited. By the second round of food, we didn’t know what we wanted next because there wasn’t much to choose from. They stuffed the rolls with rice to fill you up and the fish sashimi slices were thin as paper.
EEK. ME THINKS NOT.

Hmmm, yeah… sorry guys. I’ve had better.
I came here based on all the great reviews, even from some elites that I know and respect.
I was prepared for the service not being great from what I read (although it wasn’t «bad»… it was really quite typical of a mid-​range ayce sushi spot in the GTA) and willing to wait out the lunch crowd knowing that on the other side I’d get to maow down on some delicious maki.
Unfortunately, the offerings left a lot to be desired. Aside from the puney, unstuffed, loosely rolled maki being plated so lazily, that it didn’t look appropriate to present, let alone eat, it was completely blah. Nothing special, dare I even say not very good. The nigiri wasn’t any better. They get points for creativity in their menu but it’s really a let down to actually see and eat their specialty rolls. I wound up getting a seaweed salad just to have something that had to be good and I couldn’t bare more than two bites. It was bad.
Somehow this place seems to please most folks but it was a real let down for me. I don’t think I’d come back even if invited. Sorry but that’s my truth.

$ 15 and change per person before tips for ayce lunch.
Pretty much all of their special rolls were delicious, and particularly the Moscow one I liked a lot.
Fire Kamakachi roll was a unique roll I have not seen elsewhere. The feature that stood out about it was the use of smoked salmon on the outside of the roll.
The lunch menu didn’t have soft shell crab roll, which is one of my personal favourites but that’s ok, it’s lunch. Maybe the dinner menu might have it?
Service was great, albeit, it wasn’t very busy at 2pm on a Tuesday.
My friend asked if they had chocolate ice cream even though it wasn’t on the menu, and they did bring her some and added chocolate syrup upon request as well.
Another thing I want to point out, a customer walked in for take out as they were closing and prepping for the dinner service and asked for a lunch special even though he had missed the lunch hours by quite a distance. But they still served him and gave him the deal. This to me says a lot about the integrity of the business.
Would come again. =D

Such amazing tasting sushi. Get the all you can eat and you can sample all of their different roles. The choices are so awesome. The coco roll, Moscow roll, Tropicana roll, fire kamikachi roll, spicy salmon roll, jungle roll. The list is a bit crazy because it sounds like I’m just reciting the menu, but it’s honestly because so much of what they serve is so good. The bright green signage is a little off putting, but it’s well worth it, and the interior is really nice. Great food, great price, and amazing value. Even for oakville!

Frozen Beef Sashimi is the reason for this 3 star rating. Otherwise, the Sashimi was quite fresh. Service was attentative, but nothing on the menu stood out to me.

Feel the need to update this since I’ve been there a few times more and once for dinner.
Their sushi is better than most places in downtown Toronto (though it can’t compare to Richmond Hill a LA carte), but I’ve ordered some additional things that make me think I should up my rating to 3.75 because they are total killers (in a good way)
a) Kalbi
b) Moscow roll — OMG! Like move me to Russia!
Those two items are more than worth upping my rating to 3.75 forcing me to round up.
Need to re-​visit again soon.
