Reviews for Yamato Japanese Steakhouse in Centralia, IL

I am completely dissatisfied with this restaurant. I should have known to leave when we arrived and the place was empty during... dinner rush. My family and I ordered the following; General Tso's Chicken - chicken was tough, dry, chewy and bland. Therewasn't any spice to it at all. The accompanying rice was bland as well, and the broccoli wasn't even warm. Rainbow Roll andPink Lady - were the only redeeming purchases from an otherwise lackluster meal. Steak and Shrimp Hibachi Combo Dinner - Therewas maybe 2 ounces of steak and 5 tiny shrimp. The accompanying rice and vegetables were cold and bland. Spicy Crab Stick - Theonly thing spicy about this, was the wasabi on the side. Otherwise tasteless. Filet Mignon and Shrimp Hibachi Dinner - Again,about 2 ounces of steak and 4 tiny shrimp and the accompanying rice and vegetables were tasteless and cold. Chicken Lo Mein -My young daughter absolutely loves her noodles and hardly ate any of this dinner, so I can safely assume that it was in the sameregards as the rest of the meal. I spent $120 and my family left dissatisfied and wanting to get a pizza on the way home. TheLadies restroom was also just absolutely disgusting. Do NOT eat here. If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Read more

Great place to eat sushi did not think I would ever eat sushi but it is good . My kid loves it . Chicken teriyaki is good .

The food was so good. Very well made. The waitress, was not. I think her name was Erica. Only reason I didn't 5star.

This place is gorgeous!! The food is amazing. Every bite of sushi I had was a party in my mouth!! I couldn't believe how good it... was!! So fresh and delicious!! I can't say enough on the sushi! You'll love it!! The waitress was perfect and super nice! Youwon't be disappointed here!! Oh and FYI the front door is just hard to open. You'll see when you go. Read more

Loved the plum wine! Food was prompt, service was great, place was clean and we had a good time!

Steak was over cooked, the shrimp and steak were just smothered in sauce as if they were trying to drown it. Rice was over... cooked and sticky. Asked for a salad with ranch and It was ranch I?m pretty sure it was blue cheese or something but it tastedhorrible. Place is really clean and nice but very underwhelmed about the food. Read more

I've ate here twice in the past week. The food is very good. I highly recommend the Dynamite roll and the Bento box. We did not... leave hungry and both times asked for a Togo box. The last time we were there people were complaining there was only one saladdressing and they didn't get rolls with their steak. This is a JAPANESE restaurant. This place is for sushi lovers. There is noAmerican food here. No French fries or nuggets for your child. And thats what we liked. The prices are decent. A roll of frozensushi is 6$ a $ more here and you have fresh. The waiter was good and cleared our table and filled our drinks. My only complaintwas the construction dust still around here and there. Otherwise it's clean. Read more
