The Japanese resturant offer a wide variety of. Japanese dishes - sushi, maki, hibachi- I thought was teppanyaki, tempura and sashimi. The Chef was very entertaining when cooking. He interacted with us and even sent pieces of grilled zucchini cook f flying through the air into the mouth of the customers sitting around the hibachi area- when you ordered the hibachi set. I realised the American sushi here are made into larger bite size than those in japan and Asia by the truly Japanese Chef. The variety of sushi or maki is also different. Lots of avocado, tempura, shrimp, salmon filled sushi. Good for large group and family dinner gathering resturant.

Food is incredibly fresh and you don't feel like you are eating unhealthy fried food. Great sushi and all the entrees are great. And they deliver further in Natick than anyone else.

They have dozens of kinds of sushi rolls, sashimi, yakitori of all kinds (shrimp, squid, teriyaki chicken) as well as roasted and deep fried whole fish like pollock or haddock, a whole Chilean sea bass and an entire array of salads with seaweed, eggplant, asparagus, lettuce and kimchi and mixed salads of all kinds.They also have and entire dumpling area with shrimp, crab, and pork dumplings and a while shellfish area with crab, clams, mussels, shrimp and many other types of cold and warm shellfish dishes.The dessert bar is also pretty good with fruit and jello options and a soft serve ice cream machine with vanilla and chocolate ice cream.If you can't find something you like, you just don't like seafood!Pricing is fixed price all-you-can-eat with lunch at $17.95 Monday-Friday and $21.95 on Sat.-Sun. and holidays.Dinner is $31.95 on Mon.-Fri. and $33.95 on Sat.-Sun. and holidays.Kids are priced by height--half price for 5ft and over, quarter priced for 4 feet or shorter and free for 3 feet and under!Well worth it--everything is very fresh and the place is very clean with friendly and helpful service.Be prepared to arrive early as it gets very crowded at the buffet sometimes.Plan to be there at the opening at 11:45 or noon for lunch and 6PM for dinner service on Mon.-Fri. And by 5PM on Sat.-Sun.They serve lunch until 2:15PM Mon-Fri. and 3PM other days and dinner until 9:15PM Mon.-Thurs. and until 9:30PM on Fri.-Sat. And 9PM on Sunday. Be sure to get there to start eating at least a half hour before closing time.Great place for a large family or group. They also serve drinks including beer, wine and sake.Good place to go before if after shopping at the Natick malls, but be sure to bring an appetite--so many things to choose from.

Went here as a group of family for dinner. I used to live in Japan and can be a bit of a food snob with Japanese food but was very happily surprised to have such a delicious Japanese meal on the east coast! We ordered a ton of dishes and shared everything. We loved the fluke starter with yuzu sauce, kinutemaki, nasu dengaku, tempura, gyoza, and maki. The agedashi tofu was good, but a little more firm tofu than I prefer. I preferred ogaâs cold appetizers and maki rolls to the nigiri but everything was good. Definitely a place where sharing style eating works well!

Not sure what has happened to this restaurant lately as service was terrible as others have experienced. Meals were served quickly however server literally started removing our plates before we had completed our meals. So awkward. We told her we were still eating and she left in a huff. Our last experience was so terrible we wonât be returning.

Food is good, but don't expect fine dining or ambience. People in Wellesley use Yama for reliable takeout food, and ocasionally it is nice to go there to sit at the Japanese style tables in the back, with the kids.
