Wow, this place is 5 stars plus. The fish was falling apart in my mouth. So tender and flavorsome. The vegetables were prepared so well too, with amazing sauces to go with. The service was fast and friendly.
Food was good, very fresh serving of sushi but service was kind of slow, maybe it was a crowded midweek. Seems very popular with the locals too for a good Japanese dinner. Prices are quite pocket friendly too
Fabulous food! The staff are amazing and the service is quick. There is tables to sit at around one side of the restaurant or you can sit in area where they make the food in front of you. Delicious food, it is on the expensive side but definitely worth it!
Yamato has always been my favorite. I like the new owner :) she’s very friendly. Food review 1) sushi rice can be less sweet 2) fish and tamago sushi were perfect 3) shrimp popcorn too sweet and too much sauces 4) tofu salad can have more salads? 5) udon was good 6) negitoro was good 7) tataki was g
Sashimi are so fresh and sushi are very yummy. Suggest sitting at the table area rather the sushi bar area.
Lovely sashimi boat, and very busy restaurant. We arrived 6pm the restaurant just opened, after sitting down, the restaurant fill up very quickly
We had the best experience today. The service from all staff was amazing. The manager was so welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely spectacular. My favourite place to eat out. We definitely will be dinning there on a regular basis. Could not fault anything. Great job to every
We drove all the way from Hamilton to try Tomato, as friend highly recommended this restaurant. And we love it! The sashimi was so fresh, and the prawn roll sushi was crunchy and fresh. Impressive!
Belated review. Came in on a Saturday afternoon and the place is packed, good sign. The sashimi is fresh and the tempura udon is the authentic Japanese taste, yummy yummy. Will definitely patronize again whenever I'm in Rotorua and crave for Japanese food.
I used to live in Japan some years ago. This is definitely one of the most authentic Japanese restaurants in NZ. Real taste of Japan with reasonable price. We spent $71 for our family of 4 and we couldn’t finish it all and not to mention the food was so delicious. I hope we can find the same quality
