Yamato Japanese - Grover Beach

Please do not waste your money on this place! My to-go order was missing an item, the gyoza was also freezing cold, and our sushi rolls did not have the avocado as they were supposed to! The staff is also VERY mean! I was told not to expect perfection from them when I am ordering take out. Everyone should order from Sushi 805 or Yanagi Sushi instead!

This place is hard to describe. Its like eating at your friend's restaurant. It has that feel. Its cozy inside and can get really busy. The food is fantastic, no other sushi around compares. Service is always great and everyone is working hard to make it work. Its a bit of a hole in the wall, but arent those the best places?

Super cool sushi bar on the Central Coast. Get in early or wait, but worth it. Steve (owner) behind sushi bar. Great night of dining on great fish!

Got a togo order of the beef teriyaki, chicken teriyaki, and chirashi, and 2 rolls. The food was really good, but they use too much rice compared to the fish. The chirashi bowl was not worth it. The cut pieces of fish was very tiny and the togo container was 2/3 filled with ride. This place is the better sushi joint in the area.

First of all this place gets 4 stars for customer service. Food quality more like 3 stars. This is a no for me especially when I have gone to other sushi places where fish is fresh. We ordered over $100 worth of apps, sushi,sake,etc. Overall, it was ok, but not a repeat when there are nearby sushi places that supercede in quality.
