Yamamori Izakaya - Japas & Sake

A friend recommended this place to us when she heard we were going to be in Dublin for a long weekend. When we reserved, we were told it was a table at the bar and we were a bit unsure about it. We needn't have been. The tables have a partition so that one has privacy and it creates quite a cosy atmosphere. We decided for the set menu and everything was delicious and the quantities were more than enough (we are not big eaters though). We were here on a Thursday evening so it was cosy and relaxed - not sure about noise levels during the weekend. Service was very friendly and professional. I have heard that the cocktails are good too, we stayed with the prosecco which was perfect for the evening.

We had the best sushi in Ireland here! The sushi was very taste and absolutely delicious. Our waitress, Mugi, was wonderful - she warmly welcomed us, explained the menu in detail, and made great recommendations. The service was fast and attentive, and the whole experience was great from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Dublin. Nearly a decade since my last visit — and it’s still just as exceptional. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the service attentive, and the food simply outstanding. We enjoyed a selection of sushi, a fresh salad, and finished with the wagyu — every dish was flawlessly executed. The photos hardly capture the true quality and flavor of the experience.

Ordered the set menu for €50 after suggestion from the waiter. Unfortunately the food seemed a lower level me u than the food I saw on other tables coming from the individual menu. The Pork Gyozas were ok and the Chicken Nanban (fried chicken) was not crispy and a bit flavorless, bit it was plenty. The worst was the Spicy Salmon with cream cheese sushi roll which tasted like canned salmon and could not taste or find a trace of cream cheese on it. Not good and not worthy for the price.

Gorgeous spot for yummy Japanese tapas style food as well as traditional style sush/sashimi. Fab cocktails, and the staff are just so nice and friendly. Really recommend this spot for a fun evening out or even a low key evening. I feel the staff can feel the vibe you’re after and they go with it. Big shout out to Niall and also all the other staff who I didn’t get their names. 💯 recommend!
