Yama seems to have lost its edge. Multiple cuts of fish lacked any noticeable flavor or edge to them. Though the cuts were huge, who cares when the taste is so unmoving? The tempura was soggy and contained too much squash. The shumai were pastey and greasy.
All in all, a pretty disappointing visit. As per another reviewer, Mishima over on Lex and 30 is superior in terms of both food and service. A bit more pricey, but you won't feel like you've just sucked down raw cardboard for an hour.
