Yamazaki Sushi Bar in Basingstoke and Deane

A hidden gem..sensational food in a beautiful little restaurant. Well done team. We will be back VERY soon!

Visited mid-week with friends and, despite the restaurant being very quiet, our food took far too long to arrive. Even worse, our mains turned up alongside our starters (the team tried to “keep them warm,” but it only meant cold, bland chicken karaage and duck gyoza). My chicken katsu curry felt like a budget ready-meal—dry rice, soggy fried chicken and a thin “chip-shop” curry sauce with a sad sliver of lettuce. Overpriced and underwhelming service. You’d be better off at Wagamama.

Best restaurant in Basingstoke by far. Food never dissapoints and service is always great. Love the place

Delicious food and really nice to have so many veggie options! Great service as well!

Best sushi in town. Never put a foot wrong.

Amazing food great customer service would definitely go again.

absolutely amazing service and food 100% recommend

We tried the sushi set menu (£47 for 36 pieces), which included a nice variety of nigiri, maki rolls, and sashimi, with both fish and vegetarian options. While the overall quality was good, the sushi leaned a bit too sweet for our taste, and the portion sizes were smaller than expected. The flavors didn’t quite wow us. That said, the staff were really friendly and the ambience was lovely, which definitely added to the experience. Still, we feel there’s room for improvement on the sushi front, and we probably wouldn’t return for it.

Stunning food, if you haven’t visited you must!! Best food in Basingstoke!

The sharing platter was amazing, and the soju was great.

Food was delicious. Fair price. Amazing service and very cozy place.

Delicious Japanese dishes! As you can see, we eat a lot and it’s all worth it. I’ve been back a few times and always receive great service. It gets busy, so make sure to book a table.

Every time we visit Yamakazi we are greeted with upmost kindness and amazing hospitality throughout, the food is and always has been sensational, 10/10 would 100% recommend to anyone looking for an amazing sushi spot. This small family run business has it all.

Amazing food - a hidden Hampshire gem

Once again, 5 stars! The Salmon Donburi was so good but the Samurai Blaze Hot Wings were a hit!

Hands down, best sushi restaurant EVER! Staff are lovely, food to die for and atmosphere cozy. Highly recommend!!

cosy,unique interior and very tasty food would highly recommend this place

Lovely food and excellent customer service

Small portions compared to the price, the rolls were the thinnest rolls I’ve ever seen and not the best quality fish which if I’m paying those prices I would’ve expected better. The delivery was quick. Won’t be ordering again.

This is a regular place for me and my partner and me and my friends to go. I love the food and the staff UNFORTUNATELY last time I went they had changed the seating to hideous velvet booths, they feel dirty and cheap and the layout is awkward. It used to be classy and romantic now I feel like I’m sitting being watched by the other diners and it’s like an American style cheap restaurant. I actually dislike it so much it’s putting me off going again so I won’t be back I may get a takeaway but I’m not sure I think sushi is best eaten in. Please change the seating back! Then we can have our usual again wehhh! gutted.

Some of the best food I’ve ever had! A very chilled atmosphere, and the staff are wonderful. 10/10 recommend!

Amazing food, great service and a perfect birthday treat

Honestly the best place in Basingstoke and I think the best UK Japanese outside London.

Really like this cosy Japanese restaurant. Excellent food and friendly staff

Great restaurant and food! Staff are friendly and the service was speedy.

The food was delicious and really fresh. The staff were polite and attentive. Will be back!

Our favourite place to eat!! Staff are fantastic and the food is the best we’ve ever eaten.

Great little place, booked late but had a good table, very attentive service without being pushy, excellent food and plenty of choice. Will come again.

Would highly recommend, polite staff, nice atmosphere and well-made dishes.

Delicious food, portion sizes were amazing for the price. Came here for my birthday and they gave us a nice little dessert with a candle, which was a lovely touch. Service was 10/10, will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely amazing! The staff is very nice and friendly. The food is lovely. Highly recommend.

Excellent people,excellent service, excellent food

Went here for Valentine's day as we love the place! Food was outstanding, service was wonderful and it had a great atmosphere. We would highly recommend the octopus balls and sushi but it's all amazing!!

Very good. Good food, lovely people, great value. Food presentation is very well done. Book a table to avoid disappointment!

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere! Always a great experience, and thoroughly recommended for any occasion 😀 We'll be back soon 😎👍

So lucky to have this hidden gem in Basingstoke.

We've been coming here for years and it's always such a lovely experience; the food is flawless, authentic and always delicious. The service is always fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

Really good, love the Mochi and the staff are really nice. Atmosphere felt authentic.

The food I had was extremely hot but also very delicious. Better than wagamamas. Would come here again.

A nice escape after a busy day. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food came out fairly quickly and was absolutely beautiful. It's was impressively presented and very tasty. Will definitely be paying another visit soon

Beautiful, cozy and warm Japanese restaurant; offering a variety of delicious Japanese cuisine. The staffs and owners were very welcoming, and I loved everything we ordered, from the chili garlic edamame and chicken katsu curry to the spicy beef ramen, Yamazaki special sushi box, blueberry soju, and coconut mochi. ✨

My wife and I went there for lunch today, and the food was exceptional.

This was my first visit. Lovely place, tasty food and the service was excellent.

Delicious food, very friendly staff and great value for money. Will definitely be coming back!

Went here for my daughters 21st. Wow. Incredible service, food and value for money. Dont hesitate, have lunch or dinner here as soon as you can.

Favourite spot in Basingstoke to eat. Great food, service and speed!

As always food and service was outstanding. Lovely to see new decor too. Never fails to impress. We will be back again very soon.

Lovely, Friendly accommodating Japanese Restaurant, nice service and well presented food, appears to be family run & the staff are eager to please guests ensuring that everyone is enjoying the nicely presented food. Large choice of food available and although a little on the pricey side worth it particularly for special occassions

Myself and 13 members of our Jiu-Jitsu school ate at Yamazaki to celebrate my birthday, on a Friday night. The food, the service and the welcome could not have been better. Naresh (the boss) was gracious, warm, patient, and a real gentleman. The serving staff were fantastic and the chefs were lovely too. The restaurant is immaculately clean, and - one of my favourite things - you can see the food being prepared in the open kitchen. We had a great night with great hosts. It was my second visit to Yamazaki, and it won't be my last. Fantastic.

Went out with girls for Christmas night out,we really enjoyed, food was delicious, service amazing, can't wait to go back!

Phenomenal! Come here often the sushi, everything is just delicious.

The food is absolutely delicious fresh sushi and the hot and sour chicken was beautifully made and the service is quick and staff are very friendly and polite definitely coming again

This is my wife and I's favourite place to come. Food is always incredible and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Could not fault this place at all

Fantastic restaurant! The food is amazing and the staff are all very warm and welcoming, they clearly all care deeply about what they cook and the experience they give you. Couldn’t recommend this place enough, my family and I come all the time.

Lovely restaurant with delicious food and a great atmosphere. The staff are lovely and so attentive. Will definitely be returning!

The best sushi in town (we’ve tried them all)

My sister's favorite sushi place in Basingstoke. Delicious sashimi, great local service. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing service and food. Perfect for a day out with a friend or family.

My favourite place in Basingstoke 🥰

One of my favourite restaurants ever. Called in for lunch with a friend yesterday - we were the only ones in and, honestly, this place deserves better. The food, the reception and service from the lovely owner, the cost - everything. Amazing as always.

Food is always really good whether it is sushi or hot food. The service is really friendly and they serve a great Japanese beer Hitachino Nest Red Ale

Very nice food , quick service and accomodating staff.

Excellent fresh food! Probably the best Japanese restaurant in Hampshire. Excellent service too. Will be coming back 💯%

A very special little restaurant in Basingstoke and well worth finding. Prices are very reasonable, the food seems fresh and tastes great if you like Sushi or Asian fusian cuisine. Phone reception can be quite bad inside the restaurant and I'm not supportive of paid customer WiFi, thats a massive no from me, hence a mark off for atmosphere. Overall though 9/10

Wonderful evening. Excellent veggie options. Eat here, you won’t regret it!

Incredible food, incredible service, incredible vibes

This place is amazing!! another family authentic business in the town, it makes the town atmosphere better from the chains.

Absolutely amazing!!! First time trip for my b-day and the service and food was immaculate! 100% recommend for sea food or sushi lovers. P.s: mochi is so nice.

Absolutely amazing, the food is simply gorgeous, staff are lovely and the atmosphere is great. Best place to celebrate a birthday! Thanks so much

Amazing food and amazing customer service. Best place to eat in Basingstoke! My go to!

Amazing food, great service, highly recommend to anyone looking for some authentic Japanese food

Really delicious food which brought a smile to my face, lovely staff and great atmosphere.

Delicious food, wonderful atmosphere, high key recommend to anyone interested.

As always perfect, really good food nice relaxed atmosphere not bad price

Used to love the food but the noodles were really greasy and gyoza were cold :( such a shame

Incredible food, very friendly staff. Amazing place to come and eat. Favourite place to eat

Love this place - best restaurant in town - great food, atmosphere & service! Highly recommend.

Says order delivered but order never arrived

Not sure how this place is rated so well? The service is good. But the food is so mediocre, like something you could make at home. Doesn't taste authentic or good at all. Especially the noodles. The broccoli is such a weird touch and the noodles are not soft.

The sushi look empty… they need to have more filling and add more tempura sushi options. I also wish they used less cucumber and more chives.

A hidden gem in Basingstoke. We eat her regularly. Always excellent and very fresh.

What a lovely little hidden gem of a restaurant, food is gorgeous & loads of choice, service is excellent & an all round fabulous experience! Five stars all the way!

Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff! The food is super tasty and we always have a great experience here

Delicious food and great service

My family and I are regulars here! We love this place! The staff are so friendly and prices are reasonable! Highly recommend! Sushi is incredible and so is the rest of their food!!

My new favourite sushi/ramen restaurant in Basingstoke! Great variety, great atmosphere, great service. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing food every time! The staff are so welcoming and helpful

Brilliant, great food. Will now be a regular:)
