    Booked a table for 9:15, arrived to a queue of individuals all with bookings. Didn't get s table until 9:45, the couple in front of us had a booking for 9pm. Poor table management, took over 25/30 minutes to get our food then once we sat down. Food was good but just the table management failed a bit.

Valentine's Day was an incredibly busy evening for us, and while we strive to manage bookings efficiently, the high volume did cause some unexpected delays. We apologize for any inconvenience this caused. We hope to welcome you back for a smoother experience in the future. Warm regards, North City.

    Decent food. Meat was very fatty in the Karubi and miso was so so. Have eaten much better meals at Yamamouri.

    Our overall experience was great. We have been coming to 'Yamamori' for years and always enjoy our meals here. The service is always top notch and the food is delicious. A major pull for us has always been the fact that they have black rice, which is not something we have seen in any other sushi restaurant in Dublin. The ambience is also very nice with the place looking quite authentic. Unfortunately, because we have been going to 'Yamamori' for a long time, we have also seen a significant incremental increase in price. I would find it difficult to say that it offers a great value for money, because some of the sushi of a similar quality (minus black rice) they offer cost 1.5 times more than some of the other similar establishments. It's definitely a place worth a visit if you are looking for quality sushi, but in our particular case, the prices will certainly mean that we will be reducing the frequency with which we're visiting this restaur.

    Three of us shared a few dishes- California sushi rolls were lovely. As were the prawn goyzas and prawn sushi. Veg tempura and yakatori were all delicious. And our son (aged 13) had the chicken katsu curry. We were all very happy.
