Fantastic Yama Moto restaurant

We went yesterday and had an amazing meal. We are often disappointed by restaurants (Babur in Crofton Park was average). But this place blew our socks of. The staff were brilliant, the meal was amazing. Can't wait to go back.


We had dumplings to start and aubergine with a sesame sticky sauce which was fantastic. The truffle beef was really good too. Meals for two with cocktails was ?81 (about ?20 less than Babur) and we had 3 courses.


One of the best meals I've had in a long, long, long time. We are also big fans of the Crystal Palace Market which sets the bar high. We will start saving again (we don't get out much so would rather have something memorable that we have to save for and feel special and do it less often).

In answer to Seabag's question: No, I don't think so


My experience of this place has been very mixed on the two occasions I've been there. Cocktails were lovely. Service was very good.


Food was.....um....ok. The sushi was quite nice. I left the salmon tartare as it really wasn't very nice.


Having sat at the sit up bar so I could nose in the kitchen I could see just how much of it was cooked freshly and how much came out of the freezer and dropped in the fryer. I also wanted to see whether the vegetarian options were cooked in the same fryer as the rest...


Admittedly I've not been there for a few months so maybe it has picked up

    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
