Originally from Osaka,  we opened Yamazushi in 1986 as the first sushi restaurant in the triangle.

We are now introducing traditional Japanese kaiseki dinner. Centuries ago, kaiseki was a multi-course dinner served before tea ceremonies in Japan. It starts with a small appetizer and soup, followed by a variety of small dishes.

Dishes are raw, grilled, simmered, deep-fried, and steamed. Although sushi plays an important role in kaiseki, Japanese cuisine is unlimited in other savory dishes and artistic presentation of ingredients. Yamazushi's new menu represents our passion to introduce new and unique ways to enjoy Japanese cuisine. Dishes in this menu may vary from kaiseki dishes; however, the concept of enjoying small dishes is identical. We offer healthy (macrobiotic) dishes and vegan dishes as well as gluten-free dishes.

At Yamazushi, even the smallest dish is high quality, represented in our selection of green teas, as well as the rice we serve. Plates, cups and bowls in Japanese cuisine are called "Kimono (robe) of food" because they are indispensable for presentation just like a kimono would beautify a person. Most of our plates and cups are imported from Japan or handmade by George.
