NYC Tastes

Yama is a tiny little sushi joint that sits just below 17th street. The inside has 2 small rooms with about 5 tables each and a tiny sushi bar in between. The place is very minimalist with little to no decoration which is just fine, since the sushi would steal the show anyway. This is their Sushi Entree no Shellfish. This came with 2 pieces of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, mackerel and a tuna roll. As you can see their pieces are HUGE!! They come on a huge wooden slab that's kind of intimidating once they put it down in front of you. I have trouble fitting a regular piece of sushi in my mouth all at once...here it was impossible! The pieces weren't only big in size but big in flavor. All of the pieces we ordered were super fresh and full of flavor. The Sushi Entree also came with your choice of soup or salad. We didn't realize the pieces of sushi were going to be so big so we had ordered some more food along with the platter. I got a piece of Toro and Mr. T got a piece of Unagi...
