We were just passing through Carbondale and spotted Yamato. We were greeted by a nice young man who turned out to be our waiter. We were very impressed with his attention to detail. I have a rare medical condition called Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction. Because of it I am limited to 25 grams of fat a day. So no oil, butter, salad dressing and so on. He suggested that they make me chicken and shrimp with all vegetables and teriyaki sauce. He also checked to make sure the soup did not have oil even though he was pretty sure it did not. Then he mother came out and asked me questions to make sure that they were understanding this correctly. Our food was delicious and our service was beyond superb. Hats off to 16 year old Daniel for being a fantastic waiter and teenager! We will go back the next time we are in Southern Illinois. Oh, and the prices were very reasonable.

This has become our go to restaurant in Carbondale. The food is superb with great service. Last night was no exception. The Bento boxes are probably our favorites. Great sushi and seafood dishes always.

My husband and I ordered the folet and shri.p. Steak was too tough to chew. Shrimp dripped grease. We wanted something special for our 41st anniversary, didn't happen. A total waste of money!

The employees were very nice, and got plenty to eat. My daughter loved the sauce they make there that is on the table, it is a white sauce. Salad was good as was the sushi and sashimi. Only thing I would like to seen is it was a little cleaner, bathroom needed cleaned as did floors. I will go back.

Yamato is a newer spot in Carbondale. I must have driven past it 100 times before I realized it was even there. So much wasted time, because this is now my favorite sit-down restaurant in Carbondale. I'm going to start with the atmosphere. I think the building used to be a bar of some sort, because the lights look a bit like a club. It's charming, and an interesting contrast to this quiet little restaurant. I don't think this place has been "discovered" just yet. It's typically quiet, which I personally enjoy, but makes me worry about the future of this delicious spot. The owners/staff are friendly and helpful. Great people. The best part, however, is the food! The sushi is fantastic. I've also had the tempura vegetable bento box. It's a lot of food. Be prepared for leftovers. The sauces are good, and the rice is flavorful.

Phenomenal!!! Everything, from the spring rolls to the miso soup to the hibachi was perfection. And the dinners had huge portions. A must if you love or want to love Japanese cuisine.

My wife and I went on a date night and she suggested we try Yamato since we hadn’t been there before. We were surprised and delighted. We were quickly seated and given sufficient time to look at their extensive menu. The food was beautifully prepared, fresh, and delicious. Service was excellent and the prices are fair. I highly recommend the lobster roll....amazing! We shall return!

So this place has recently open, it isn't in a good location driving wise, but it is worth it to navigate too it. The food is excellent and perfectly prepared, I use to go to Fujiyamas, however, this place will be my go to from now on for sushi. The server that attended our table was very attentive, when everyone was server Miso soup, I had politely declined due a mushroom allergy I have, the server offered to make Miso soup without mushrooms, which is shocking because i know alot of places will make a gigantic batch of Miso for the day. I had politely declined but thanked him for his offer. The platting is even more beautiful than any place around this area. They are all reasonably priced for sushi and I will defiantly be returning in the near future.
