Decent Japanese food - would recommend to try the bentos and drinks
It was not bad decent japanese food. I liked the bento
Lovely place to eat at, our local Japanese! But changing over so a shame
Yuuma was amazing, did not disappoint! Although the prices are a bit higher, but you are paying for such amazing quality food!
Food is not bad. Service is good. But would try other Japanese places too.
Good service - staff was helpful with recommending the meal. Good food. Music was a little loud but staff was happy to lower down the volume after requested.
Portions are small but food is unique. Overall space is very tight and booking is essential
It’s our favourite Japanese local joint. The space is small but this is made up for with tasty food. The pork belly gyoza is absolutely delicious 😋😋😋
Consistently good food and friendly service. Always a favourite for lunch or dinner
Better than I expected. Impeccable service! Wayguu beef bento was divine and done medium rare, exactly how I liked it. A lot of food. Should have taken the leftovers instead of trying to scoff. Looking forward to try the cod next time. Hojicha tiramisu could increase in flavour but still good, especially in hot weather! Overall, enjoyable experience. Will return.
great food, great service highly reccomend! will be back for sure
Food is good, our favs would have to be the sashimi and pork belly bento, those were super on point (would definitely return for these). However, I do feel portions are a bit smaller, but it is modern Japanese. Service seemed good too.
Fresh, tasty foods and good price too, will definitely come back
Yuuma is always a delight! Love their lunch bentos and great price too.
customer service was AMAZINGGG - even though we came 15mins late, they still gave us our seats and let us enjoy our meal! the food was delicious, particularly the squid watermelon which was a good recommendation by our waitress
A small restaurant in Vic park, easy parking, not cheap $120 for 2, but we've had lovely dinner
Good authentic Japanese food. Service was good and sashimi was fresh.
portion is small for pricing. flavour of food is good. didn't even offer tap water when we went.
We booked for an early Saturday booking and it was all extremely rushed. When sat down, we were told we had 60 minutes and there was immense pressure to leave - plates taken away far too promptly and cloths to wipe the table down were put on our table while 2 of the 3 of us were still sitting there. This was extremely rude and disappointing. Food was only okay. The premium bento was a little disappointing in terms of the accompanying sushi (tuna mini roll x 3 and 1 x salmon nigiri - nothing special at all) and the scallops were overcooked so a bit dry.
We ordered Sashimi (santenmori)for entree Beef bento and prawn tempura udon for mains Positives : The beef in the bento box was super tasty and perfectly cooked The sashimi was was tasty and the fresh wasabi was nice The udon noodles had great texture Negatives The udon broth and tempura prawn were too salty and unpleasant ,the tempura prawn was put in the broth which made it lose its crunch The front of house staff is not friendly ,did not feel welcomed He also emphasises too much on adding truffles to every dish He made us change our order advising we are ordering too much food (so made swap from sushi to sashimi) Felt too rushed when taking the order ,we also wanted to order drink and desert with the order but he didn’t have the patience to wait for few seconds The tables are too close to each other , felt like the table next to us had joined us for dinner Overall an average dining experience and would likely not return back
Everything was great! Food was delicious and the service was good. Would definitely recommend
Felt rushed. Got asked about order three times. Table cleared as soon as I took the last spoonful. Small servings. Overhyped. Don’t come here for a celebration. Felt like fast food restaurant than fine dining
Great service Clean modern venue amazing food highly recommended to all
The food was fantastic! Can’t wait to go back soon! !
The food and the presentation was great the atmosphere was really nice and we enjoyed our meal the only downside is the dinning area is tiny and the dinner slots are only 1 hour and it is byo which we did not realise until after we arrived and were seated.
Friendly service, amazingly fresh and tasty food. I’ll be back!
Food was good and at reasonable prices one of the best Japanese restaurant visited so far
There was an eggshell in our onsen egg. Also, the flavous though amazing, for the black cod miso, was a little disappointing for the mushy texture of the fish. The rice was mushy as well. Truffle fries were great though. Might give it another try.
Amazing bento box meal. Watermelon squid and beef tataki was yummy
friendly service, fresh food and delicious!!! only regret was we did not manage to try their desserts due to only 1 hr dining time limit
Nothing special, a little overhyped. Staff are helpful but wouldn’t rave about it
Delicious freshly produced dishes... Only thing is we got our mains (hot food) before our entree (cold food) Felt a bit rushed, otherwise delicious
Great japanese food, especially the bentos and the umami fries! This is my 2nd visit in less than 2 months, and i totally enjoyed my experience there!
Very. Good quality food and great choice of bento and the usual favorites.
We pre ordered the chef’s selection - 6 courses that was creative and tasted divine. Highly recommended and bookings essential.
Fast service but expecting more from food for the price I paid
Great experience with great food and service. Definitely going back there!
So delicious! Will definitely be back for the taster menu
Good food and good vibe! As I dont really like tiramisu, its was one of my favorite
The place is small, and you strictly have to stick to timeslot. The food is good above average but found the menu to be eclectic; never seen loaded fries at a Japanese before. Also the signature dish which we went for miso cod was not available.
friendly service, food was nice. miso soup was very nice!
The food was scrumptious and service was warm and friendly.
Delicious. Had the pork belly gyoza dumplings, tuna poké bowl and fries to share with a friend. We had no space left for dessert even though that looked delicious too!
Amazing food & great service. Had the watermelon squid entree and futari wagyu bento & black cod miso bentos. Highly recommended...Will be back!
there was no social distancing rule applied. We understood it was a 60 mins seating. We arrived at 6pm and made our order and arrived at 6.30 so we felt pressured to finished our food and left before 7. The Udon was salty and a bit bitter. The tempura prawns were put in the soup which made them soggy. Our overall experience was not good. Won't go back.
love the beef tataki udon especially the onsen egg. very good and friendly service. very good sashimi as well
Always a pleasure dining at Yuuma. The pork belly gyoza is delicious
Super busy, but delish as always. Had the new black garlic scallop bento. Yum!
Great service and atmosphere, black cod miso disappointing (somewhat dry and chewy)
Nice, fresh food - however waiting time was a little long.
