Best spicy tuna reel you can get in the city! If you're looking for sushi, this place will fulfill your desire. I cannot speak for the whole menu, but the spicy tuna reel is good? fresh, not too spicy and tasty rice with the right ratio. I'm glad I finally tried! Also super friendly staff that welcomes you and say goodbye? very much feel a mother and pop friendly type.

Look, there's other places in Fallbrook to get $18 worth of a good meal. I ordered a bento box and this is what I got.... salad doesn't cost that much, rice doesn't cost that much and miso soup definitely doesn't cost that much so you make up for it with the protein. I'm extremely disappointed bc even after I called to ask if this was the right amount of meat the host said yes and that they weigh 5oz. And to enjoy. This is just ridiculous. Wouldn't recommend not even for the sushi if they treat customers like this. And no I didn't eat anything when I took this photo.

Update (02/26/22): Yama must have a new chief or have been overly busy today. The food quality was way down. ? Miso Soup: Too thick. Powdery not flavorful as usual. ? Tempura Vegetables: Under cooked. Tempura batter soggy, not crunchy. ? Mexican Roll: Got an A for presentation. B minus for flavor. Something was a little off on the roll. Would I return to Yama again? Yes. However, if the quality continues to suffer I might have to seek out a new place for sushi tempura. The staff at Yama Sushi are welcoming and ready to serve. The fish is fresh, clean and so tasty. Highly recommend a visit to Yama Sushi for a bite.

I recommend the Oh Yeah roll. It's the one of the only reasons I'd go to Fallbrook. So delicious and filling. Everyone there is friendly. My food was served fast. I couldn't finish my Miso Ramen so server put in to go container for me. That is also a delicious dish there too. And it's huge. Highly recommend if you're in or passing through Fallbrook and are craving Sushi and or Ramen. *I ate a few pieces of my roll before I realized I needed to take a picture*

This was the first time I have tried this place. It was clean, the staff was friendly and welcoming even though I don't wear a mask. No judgment just service! The beef and chicken yakisoba was delicious. We had the dragon roll and shrimp tempura roll. The dragon roll was fantastic, for me being a newbie to sushi! Highly recommend this local place. Great quality of fish and shrimp. Noodles tasty and decent prices for quantity.

**Yama Sushi: A Hidden Gem in Fallbrook** Nestled amid the hustle of a bustling strip mall, Yama Sushi stands out for its inviting atmosphere and warm service. Patrons rave about the fresh fish, particularly the spicy tuna roll, which boasts a perfect balance of flavor and texture. While the bento boxes and tempura have received mixed feedback regarding portion sizes and cooking consistency, many diners cherish the cozy vibe, accentuated by soothing jazz music. With a dedicated staff and a commitment to quality, Yama Sushi is worth a visit for sushi and ramen enthusiasts seeking a delightful dining experience in Fallbrook.

I ordered the protein house special (no rice) it was very delectable. I ordered the IPA beer which was lagunitas. I think this place is very great. Very quiet around lunch time. Jazz music is perfect.

Best spicy tuna roll you can get in town! If you?re craving sushi, this spot will satisfy your craving. I cannot speak for the entire menu, but the spicy tuna roll is good ? fresh, not too spicy, and tasty rice with the correct ratio. Glad I finally triedthis location! Also, super friendly staff that greet you and say goodbye ? very much a mom and pop friendly type feel.

Great food! Great service! Fun filled atmosphere watching the chefs create works of art that you eat!

Incredible sushi hidden in a busy strip mall full of stressed white Americans. Fish was fresh. Normally spicy tuna/yellowtail comes premade, but our chef chopped it up and made it in front of us. 10/10 would recommend.
