Without question, hands down the best sushi in the Annapolis area! Price point is comparable to other sushi spots in town, but the quality of their rolls is exceptional! Wait staff: always smiling, and friendly. If you like shrimp tempura, the Dinosaur Egg is a MUST HAVE!

Excellent (and BEAUTIFUL) sushi, wine, service and atmosphere. The prices are really reasonable for such fresh, well prepared sushi.. We will DEFINITELY go back! If I had one complaint, it would be the temperature in the restaurant. It was freezing. You could almost see your breath. Bring a sweater!

Great sushi shop! We honestly came here because it was one of the few places open due to snow closures.
Im very happy we did and we plan on returning soon. My wife and I each got some sushi and soup. The service was wonderful, equally matched with the quality of their food. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Our food was amazing and plentiful. The price point was fair.
Im glad we found this option and cant wait to visit here again.

This little Japanese spot is so good! I tried 3 different dishes and were beyond. The yuzu on the dressing for yellowtail jalapeo super tasty. And the little side of cucumber just delicious. Good service as well. If you are in the area you have to try it.

I just had an absolutely superb meal at Yama sushi. The waitstaff was delightful and the variety of options and prices were second to none. As an added delight, the sushi platters were beautifully crafted and the arrangements were elegant. This experience comes at great effort so beware of a slightly extended service time, but its well worth the wait. I personally ordered the volcano roll it was ~fire~ They pulled out all the stops, even until the end where they surprised us with tiny fruit flavored gum balls
