  How NOT to treat ANY customers, ESP. a suuuuper sushi fan (me) who was sooooo excited to FINALLY have good sushi close by here in Springfield, Ohiooooo (and Mr. Picky-Reluctant Eater)
  -Don't know what specials are being offered (smartass waitress answer, "sushi!" and don't seem to care, so hungry cust. has to go out and check the board herself...
  -Don't have place settings ready, not even chopsticks...
  -Have your bored looking cook (who's apparenty more intested in watching The Wheel of Fortune on the TV overhead than doing his job correctly) send out a salad with no dressing (ooops!) and an entree, teriyaki NY strip steak, with nothing but likewarm meat and rice (oops again on the veggies?!?)  Way to scare off Mr. "I'm afraid of just about anything that isn't good ole' American meat-n-potatoes!"
  
  There were only three tables occupied on the Thurs. night we came in for dinner, and the bored looking staff seemed to be working harder to stay awake than get their jobs done.  I really hope we just hit a bad night, and will probably give this place another chance, if for no other reason than my blind love and devotion to sushi (their limited offering is not half bad...!!)  
  Don't blow it, Yamato... Hate to have to say "sayonara" to what could be a long, happy relationship!!

  Not impressed.  Miso was good, seaweed salad was good.  Hibachi grilled food, eh, not so great.  Food came out kind of tepid.  It was fresh, but just not hot.  Note: this is not a "hibachi" restaurant where the food is prepared and cooked at your table.  For the money, I've had better food ... and gotten a "show".

  Returned to Yamato for second time since it opened. It's still a great place to get sushi in Springfield OH.
  
  We ordered the Yamato roll, Dragon roll and Spicy roll. Each roll costs about $10. All three are excellent. The Yamato roll is deep fried and crispy. We also ordered the chicken yakisoba. Unfortunately, it is similar to the lo mein from a local Chinese restaurant.
  
  The staff is still friendly and attentive. Overall, Yamato is still a great sushi restaurant!

  Very good food. The sushi was tasty and the noodles are excellent. Good service and nice atmosphere. My only quibble was that they do not have beer (I really wanted a Sapporo with my food). Give them a try-- you will not be disappointed.
