We just had a fantastic meal at Yama.
From the service from Myron to the food we ordered, everything was delicious & the quality of the fish was superb.
Price to quality ratio is outstanding.
Will definately be coming back.

Gorgeous, art-filled space with warm, welcoming staff & excellent food. The Yama salad was perfect, & the nigiri & hanabi were fresh & beautifully balanced.

Do not come here. You will get better service at a food court & better quality of food. Came in eve of Christmas eve, the restaurant did not seem busy. However, it was impossible to find seating. I waited over 30 minutes just to be acknowledged & was eventually seated at the bar.

The food quality was unacceptable. The fish dish was extremely salty & stringy. The foams on the plate were dried out. Even worse, breakfast ordered through the hotel came with berries that had visible white mold next to my eggs Benedict. This is a serious food safety issue.

Very disappointing experience. Would not return.

The food & vibe is great- the staff is incredibly unhelpful & seem to require further hospitality training. I was staying at the hotel & had three issues. First, I ordered breakfast & my order was never put in- I waited over 45 minutes before I was told this. I was offered a croissant for my trouble & never got my food. Second, we were asked to leave due to reservations despite staying at the hotel- there were plenty of open spots around us & we were there for 30 minutes having one drink. The third, I broke my ankle outside & was trying to get to the hospital. I had been putting in to go orders all week & when I tried to put in a to go order on the way to the hospital I was told that they don't offer to go orders- only eating in restaurant or room service. I explained I had been doing pick up all week & that I broke my ankle. The gentleman who answered my phone call told me there was no way I was doing pick up all week (I have receipts showing I did) but agreed they could'figure something out'. My husband went to pick up my order, & they said it was never put in for the second time, but we could get room service. I waited over an hour for two cold & stale bagels & was charged a room service fee still. It was over $75 for two bagels. We absolutely love staying at the Vogue but this restaurant makes us think twice about coming back. If you're coming just for dinner I'm sure it's fine, but if you're relying on Yama as an option during a hotel stay, I cannot recommend any less. I've never experienced such poor service.

Very confusing menu. Food looked great, nicely plated, but taste did not impress. Very few people present, estimate 5% capacity yet we waited way too long for our food to come out. Wait staff not so attentive. Toped off my sparkling water with tap water by mistake.
A patron at a table right behind us was FaceTiming quite loudly. Staff unfortunately, did not intervene.

Decent bar snacks, great cocktails.

Slipped in for a quick drink during my stay at the hotel. The bar was a ghost town at 3 PM on a Sunday, so I basically got a private session with the bartender. He clearly knew what he was doing, & instead of letting me blindly pick from the signature list, he suggested small tweaks like adding yuzu syrup & zest. I don't remember the exact builds, but both drinks were smooth & distinctive.

Food options were limited during off-peak hours, & I ordered the chicken dumplings & truffle fries. The dumplings came bathed in a tangy soy-based sauce & were fine for the price. The truffle fries were slightly undercooked, though the trio of sauces on the side was good enough.
