    We had a really delicious meal to celebrate our son getting his uni finals result! The food was not only really good, but also beautifully presented and our waiter was friendly and gave us good advice on what to order. We had a great time and feel lucky to have such an excellent restaurant in our local area. Also we went on a Monday evening, good to know because quite a few restaurants don’t open on Mondays.

    We love Yamamomo, we're very loyal customers. However during our last visit: The service was quite slow despite the restaurante was 30% full. It looked to us it was untrained staff. Unfortunately the dessert, yuzu pana cotta, a favourite of ours, was not fresh.
    Yama MomoResponded on April 28, 2025
    Dear Daniela, Thank you for your continued loyalty and for sharing your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your recent experience did not meet your expectations. We are currently training new team members, and we apologise that this affected the speed of service during your visit. We also regret that the yuzu panna cotta was not as fresh as it should have been — this has been raised with our kitchen team to ensure it does not happen again. We appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back soon for a much-improved experience. Kind regards, Yamamomo Restaurant Team
