About
Founded in 2000, Yamitsuki introduced the concept of Japanese style cuisine, presented to customers via a unique conveyor belt system. The experience was fun and exciting while the food was revolutionary. Yamitsuki became a market leader in sushi restaurants. As our main focus, our sushi bar has the minimalistic traditional Japanese dishes offering timeless perfection, as well as modern American and European influenced sushi dishes. Over time other influences such as Thai and Chinese were incorporated into the menu which led to the development of a fusion Asian menu, offering a Noodle, Teppanyaki and Dim Sum bar, with a variety of oriental soups, sweet and sour dishes and oriental curries. Yamitsuki offers a stylish atmosphere with friendly staff providing our customers with a great place to unwind, relax and to enjoy their dining experience. Yamitsuki is defined as a one stop sushi and oriental cuisine restaurant providing fast paced on-the-move lifestyles with the freshest sushi and a healthy meal. Our freshly prepared delicious food is delivered to our customers via sit-down, take away or delivery. Our warm atmosphere and friendly service, combined with great value, offers an experience that becomes addictive.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Back to our favourite Asian Restaurant. And they didn't disappoint at all. From scrumptious Asian cheese puffs and dimsum for starters, to expertly cooked salmon and fish in front of us. Oodles of noodles and egg fried rice you can't master at home. Ending off with not only a cauldron of cocktail bubbles and whiskey, but quirky fortune cookies and a lesson in origami. Thanks for this awesome experience.

Our first visit to celebrate our anniversary. We were well taken care of by Rose and Bruce. The food and service was absolutely brilliant. The sushi and lunch special went down a treat and we were spoilt with dessert and a hand written note. Will definitely be returning soon! Thank you

Right from the moment I phoned to make a reservation up to the last dessert. The whole experience was enjoyable. Our chef at the Teppanyaki Bar was friendly and catered for both our diets strictly. He also helped recommend dishes that were truly an authentic experience to the tastebuds and were tantalizing! Our Hostess did not shy away from helping us ensure that our anniversary spent was an absolute treat and amazing experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Terrible seating. Chairs is packed right up close to the next person. Food was disgusting. Waiters does not clear empty plates and dishes. You have to ask them to clear. I think the waiters make more noise than customers. The waiters are all over doing nothing. They over book and deliver a crappy tasteless dinner. I could not eat the food. It is my third time at the restaurant but it has gone down in service and quality.

I would have given you a 5/5 your staff especially Mbali was fantastic, the sushi chefs were amazing however the owner did not have a lot of interset as we ask to give him feedback. Disappointed because we love your restaurant- we from Kenton on Sea but whenever in JHB this is our go to place. We just hope you Mr owner appreciate your staff without them you don't exist. Our experience and reality it is really disappointing- and no you were not too busy you were standing outside.

WOW!!! We had a variety of sushi and it was all so delicious. The chefs at the sushi bar were very friendly, worked super clean and were very precise with their knife skills. I was very impressed. Our waiter was Patience who was very sweet and attentive as were all the other waiters.  Thank you so much for the voucher, it was such a treat.

Yamitsuki provided the best setting and delicious dinner in celebration of our engagement. From the divine cocktails to the amazing flavour combinations of all the different types of sushi, every moment was savoured. The decor is beautiful and the service was some of the best ! I especially recommend the Cherry Blossom gin and my personal favourite, their Infernal Roll .

It was my first time dinning at Yamitsuki and I must say I was blown away, best place to celebrate a birthday. My husband and I had a bit of everything. The food was melt in your mouth fresh, incredibly tasty, so much depth in flavor and all things yummy. Love the attention to detail in the plating. Now the service, one word-impeccable. I have tried Asian dishes in other restaurants but Yamitsuki has me blown away, so far the best in Asian cuisine!! Definitely coming back.

The sushi is top quality. We shared a Yamitsuki platter and a chocolate bubble for dessert. The Yamitsuki platter was really tasty and the Rock Shrimp roll was the star of the platter. The chocolate bubble was decadent and rich, we shared and we couldn’t finish it, but it was absolutely delicious.

Our visit was a "spur of the moment" kind of visit, but I'm sure glad we decided to pop in. The food is phenomenal, and service was top-notch! Mzi made out experience one I will definitely not forget for a long time. Definitely my favorite bbq pork dimsum, and the chicken potstickers are jacked with flavor! My husband thoroughly enjoyed the sushi (devil roll and volcano rolls). Already dreaming about our next visit!

I highly recommend this restaurant. I forgot to do this review when I was there a few months ago but better late than never. Excellent service - friendly and efficient. My 2 friends and I ordered a variety of dishes from all over the menu and nothing was less than delicious and well prepared. Would go back any day.

Great food at the Tappenyaki seating area. Service was good. Having wine with your meal however is crazy expensive. Corkage R145.00 a bottle of white wine. A bottle of Durbanville Hills Sauvignon Blanc R185.00 which costs R85 in th shoes. Really!!

Arrived at the resturant, sat down and ordered a drink. After 10 minutes a waitron tells us we have to pay cash as their machines are not working. Who carries cash around to pay for a meal??? Samsung told us to go to an atm and draw cash and come back....... like hell, they wont except a eft or bank transfer!!!!! Shocking services dont think I will be back. Pity because the food is good!

Heard great things, so thought we would give it a try. Not a great first experience. Service ok, food was good, but we waited an hour for our starter plate of sushi. Didn’t bother ordering anything else, just no idea how long it would take. And then on our bill a complimentary sushi listed (not charged, but not received either). Nice touch, if you follow though …

Worth the visit for the theatrics, we had fun. Service however...well we arrived at 7, our orders were only taken around 7.45 (after trying to flag someone down) and our food arrived just after 9pm, need I say more? The food is also, while nice, not as "wow" as the prices would suggest.
