This used to be my absolute favourite sushi spot in JHB. I moved away a couple of years ago and was SO excited when I got to visit this weekend JUST so I can go to Yamada again, and get THE best sushi. I have never been soo disappointed and shocked at how much the quality has decreased. It's now my least favourite sushi spot.
The sticky rice was the consistency of pap, and all mushed together to the point where it did not even look like rice at all. I could not see a single grain of rice. Everything was also too big, granted if it tasted better the extra size would have been amazing, but with the taste and the size, everything was just awful.
We spent R550.00 on sushi and only had 3 pieces because we could not get the rest in our stomachs the taste was just soo bad.
Yamada used to be packed with clients, and always had a trendy vibe. But when we got there on Sunday they were empty and I asked if they are closing. I did not get why they were so dead quiet, after experiencing the sushi I now get why they are quiet.
I am saddened by how the quality has decreased and will never eat there again.
