Yama (Young’s Restaurant) - Japanese restaurant in West Lebanon - 96 S Main St, USA

Yum! I had the tropical roll, the sweet potato roll and a salmon roll with mango. While it took a wee bit longer than I expected, it was very fast considering there were other orders before me. (I forgot they were doing other orders which is why it was longer than expected. I mention this because when you walk in, it's quiet and most orders appear to be to go orders. So, just be patient. They are very fast considering.) The rolls were delicious! I loved each bite and I am so glad I came, sat down and ate here. This little mom-and-pop place is perfect. My rolls were simple, but the rolls coming out for others, the more extravagant rolls, they were gorgeous and HUGE. Beautiful in fact. I also ordered miso soup and pajun. Delicious, perfect amount and I left comfortably full. How things work. You come in, order and pay, and then you sit to eat or grab it to go. The staff are friendly and efficient. Oh and don't forget your drinks in the fridge. They have same drinks I would get out of the vending machines in Japan. It was nice to remember. Overall, I am very happy I found this little place. Next time I make the 3.5h round trip drive out, I am definitely stopping in again! Thank you so much for your hospitality and delicious food!

Great place! I use to visit pre-COVID and now they are back open with limited dine in service (you order at the cashier station and they will bring out food to your table). All of their food is just as good as I'd remember and the only place you can Korean cuisine for miles. The owners and front person are super nice. The place was clean and the proportions (and flavor) are worth the price. They also take allergies seriously which I appreciated! If you like Korean food and sushi you shouldn't be disappointed. Just remember to get some Banchan (side vegetables) as they no longer serve all the side dishes with your meal since COVID so you have to specify.

Don’t know why we waited so long to come here but I’m glad we finally did! The Green Monster: fresh & yummy. I get why people recommend this restaurant for their sushi. Jjamppong: perfect for the rainy weather & had a nice deep flavor. Tangsooyuk: yummy & I was surprised how crispy + juicy the pork was Staff are very friendly and warm. Has a cute and cozy vibe inside. Definitely will be added to our rotation of regular restaurants 🫶🏼

This place was a great pit stop, and not a big detour from the highway. Lots of fresh vegetables, the tofu was delicious, and they make a homemade teriyaki sauce which is truly lovely! The portion sizes are quite large and service was quick!

Homemade food with incredible Korean dishes and daily rotating banchan choices! SO tasty

Super tasty good with an amazingly nice and courteous front of house service. Just not a spot for fancy date night.

Cute little family-run restaurant in the Upper Valley with good food. They don't offer dine-in, but the take out is pretty good. Ordered the pork bulgoki and bibimbap and was pretty satisfied. Price was slightly on the higher side (~$35 for 2 people). They offered free candy for valentine's day, which I thought was pretty cute. PS: I ordered on the phone and they gave me a wait time of 1h. I don't know if that was due to v-day rush, or if that's the usual scene. But the ordering part itself was pretty hassle free. PPS: excellent covid safety protocols.

Went back today for the first time in ages and I'm glad I did. Yes, a lot has changed since they reopened, but you can tell this familiy is doing their very best to keep serving the upper valley. As of 1.13.24 there are only cold drinks in the cooler (I should have asked if there was a byob situation). You place your order at the cash register, everything is brought to your table, and then you pay before you leave. Not full table service, but nothing wrong with that. (the website is still a little unclear with some instructions stating take-out only - that is not the case!) I had a chef's choice sushi/sashimi plate and dukboki. The sushi didn't seem as fresh or flavorful as I recall, but still good enough. The dukboki though...I will be dreaming of that. So good - perfect chewyness, actually spicy, but not so overpowering that you can't taste the flavors of the sauce. Will definitely be ordering that again. The real reason to eat here is to support a family owned restaurant that offers good food you really can't get anywhere else in the region. They really do treat everyone who walks in like family, they are so so lovely and they are doing everything they can to continue serving the area.
