Comment: Our favorite and only sushi spot we will eat at. The quality of fish is fantastic, and the menu is the perfect size. Me and my boyfriend have been coming for years. They are so consistent and that proves it all. My favorite is Hirame Usuzukuri & Nabeyaki Udon. George and Stephanie we can’t thank you enough. If you haven’t tried it yet, here is your sign !

Comment: Best Tonkotsu Ramen 🍜 outside Little Tokyo/Los Angeles. Makes any other NYC/metro Ramen taste like dish water. Worth the drive. I’ve been eating pork Ramen for 25 years, and always on a search. I found my place, and nothing else matters anymore…🍜💪❤️⭐️💜 ps—u must try their dumplings. Last time I had dumplings like this was on the Ginza in May 1984.

Comment: My family and I have been coming to Yami Ichi since they opened. I moved to North Carolina 2 years ago and this is the only place I crave when I come back to visit my family. The sushi is always fresh, and the miso ramen is my absolute favorite. The owners put so much thought into their menu and making customers feel at home. Pictured is sushi a la cart, miso ramen, and kimchi. Can’t recommend this place enough!!

Comment: We have been looking for an authentic Japanese place for a long time. We found it! Small, family-run place. We went with friends who used to live in Japan. They saw a dish they said they had not seen on a menu in the US and last ate 20 years ago in Japan.

Comment: Small restaurant in a strip mall with minimal ambience, yet each dish served as it would be in Japan: on a tray with stone crockery. Sake in a Masa Cup; Soup with a shallow wood spoon shaped like a ladle (actually hard to eat from - so I gauchely drank from the bowl).There is a small Sushi Menu - dont expect fancy, trendy, jumbo rolls, just tasty, fresh fresh served at room temperature, plated simply. This is basically a kitchen restaurant serving Ramen, Soba or Udon with various ingredients in soup or Danbury Bowls. Truly delicious. A godsend in exurbia. The fabulous broth is meat based, so not a lot of vegetarian options.

Comment: I have been going to Yami-Ichi with my friends and family since they opened and it has always been a wonderful experience! It is one of my favorite restaurants in Mahopac. Not only is the food delicious but the atmosphere is cozy and the service is top notch. Some of my favorites include gyoza, katsu curry, shoyu ramen, and oyako-don. The setting is nice and intimate as there are enough tables to avoid over-crowding - every table has their own space. Georges service is excellent and he is always friendly, accommodating, and knowledgable. My family loves the authentic food and beverages offered at Yami-Ichi and we will continue to dine there!

Comment: Absolutely delicious food! We ordered the gyoza & Takoyaki and it came out HOT and fresh. The sushi was the freshest I’ve had in a long time— everything from the sushi rice to the nori & especially the fish, you’d think we were right by the ocean. The owner was very sweet & welcoming. Looking forward to another visit soon!

I had a Japanese boyfriend for many years and I was reminded of his moms really fresh home cooking, which I miss, but here at Yami-Ichi, was served in a more elegant way.Highly recommend the Matcha Tiramisu with plum wine to complete your meal.Def returning to try Ramen and Lunch specials.

Comment: I couldn’t be happier when I discovered that it was Japanese owned authentic restaurant!! They always have the freshest Fish there. Yoshi San makes the best Sushi, I mean 100times better than those over priced sushi in the city. Also the izakaya style appetizers and Soba is just authentic and reminds me of home. It’s a small family owned restaurant and get very crowded on weekends, expect for long wait or I would recommend to just go there during the week.

Comment: A tad more than Im used to spending when I dine out but I tend to be frugal. Im sure the quality ingredients they use cost a lot so I understand the price. You can taste the freshness and quality products that go into each recipe.My family had:Edamame - great but hard to mess up edamame anyway lolJapanese fried chicken - SURPRISINGLY amazing. So juicy that they are dripping wet on the inside but super crispy outside, it was fantasticShrimp Shumai - only thing I didnt like. A little undercooked I thinkPhilly Roll - PerfectKatsu Rice bowl with Kim chi - My niece said I want to eat here every time we come to Mahopac after trying it.Panko fried chicken - Standard Tempura chicken, it was goodShoyu Ramen - Fantastic, so many good flavors.Really impressed by the food. It took an abnormally long time to clear a table for us to sit but once we did the food came quickly. Great beer and Sake selection as well as soft drinks. My mother had a glass bottle coke, always a treat. I had a japanese wheat beer which I didnt even know existed. Niece had a Ramune with the glass bead. Overall great time, will return.

Comment: I never got a chance to write a review for this place though Ive been coming since 2019. The owner (George) makes a regular attempt to get to know every customer down to their names and birthdays and honestly where will you get that type of treatment anywhere else. The food is great and I find myself coming back regularly half just to have a nice conversation with him again, and to get the same order of ramen Ive been getting for years. Highly recommend anybody who is a ramen fan.

The prices are also quite reasonable, and the service was warm. There is not a better Japanese restaurant within an hours drive, at least.

Comment: Absolutely the best ramen in the area!! Giving this place 4 stars only because their service is pretty slow. It’s crazy how long they have people waiting and how many people leave due to the wait time. If they can sort out their internal operations and make the service faster, this place would be 5 stars. Expect to wait 30-45 mins just for your appetizers.

If you like ramen (and Japanese food) and haven’t tried this place out yet, you’re doing yourself a disservice!The only caveat is that it’s a smaller place so seating can fill up quick.

I’ve had sushi at dozens of sushi restaurants in Westchester, Rockland, Dutchess, and Putnum Counties and Yami-Ichi is by far the freshest sushi I’ve ever had. The Spicy Tuna and Spicy Salmon were amazing!!! This place is my new spot now for Japanese food. The service was also exceptional. We had to wait a half hour for a table, but it’s well worth it. Just make reservations if you prefer not to wait.

Comment: I have been coming here steadily now since they have opened, at least 2-3 times per week, and can honestly say that the consistency of the service and quality of food is far beyond anything I have experienced. Have brought countless friends and family here and everyone has had an excellent experience each time. A family owned and operated local business I am happy to support and help grow as much as I can. I am not even a fish person and this place has put me onto dishes I never would have imagined eating a year ago. To George, Stephanie, and Yoshi-san, I can not thank you enough for expanding my pallet, teaching me some Japanese, and bringing something different to the table in our small town!!

Took a chance stopping by, with reserved expectations and was happily rewarded with very good appetizers, try the Squid! And the Sushi was delightful. Service on point, knowledgeable and left nothing to ask for. Will be back again, and again for sure :) no other local sushi measures up.

Comment: I went there late before closing and the food i took home was simply fantastic. i orders an avocado/ cucumber roll, gyoza, and the katsudon. the roll was carefully made and was a refreshing and delicious appetizer to my heartier meal. the gyoza was well cooked and soft enough that my chopsticks could chop them in half. the pork meat on the inside was juicy and and easy to eat (which i love). the katsudon was great, the egg was cooked just right, leaving it moist and with some yolk left for the rice below. the rice was cooked thoroughly and was the perfect amount for a meal. the pork was fried with a flavorful batter.the only complaint i had was that the pork in my katsudon was a bit tough, but i do not blame the cooks, as i asked for this all to go and i left it in the to go container for about 20mins (so thats on me).the atmosphere is calming and gives you a nice and simple dining experience. it is a small venue, but a great place to stop by for lunch. i hope to sit down in the restaurant for lunch sometime soon :)

Comment: I visited my sister in Mahopac and she brought me to this new Japanese restaurant. From the outside I thought it was really cute (love the black signage)! My sister ordered the miso ramen and tuna roll and I ordered 4 piece bluefin tuna sushi, spicy salmon roll, and eel cucumber. My sister absolutely loved her ramen and kept mentioning how delicious the broth was while I thought the sushi was tasty and very fresh, especially the bluefin tuna sushi. We look forward to going back and bringing the rest of the family!

Comment: We are so happy theres finally a place like this in Mahopac, let alone upstate NY! This is is our second time here and I was in for a real treat when I found out they had the uni from Maine. This was the freshest Ive had anywhere in the world and I travel all over. The owner George was extremely welcoming and accommodating, and made my girlfriend and I feel like we were at home. There is a large selection of sushi rolls, we decided to go with the sweet potato tempura and avocado/cucumber, as well as the eel and cream cheese roll (my FAVORITE, not pictured). The dessert pancake filled with red bean and a side of green tea ice cream was a nice added touch to the menu and a great way to finish our amazing dinner. This is a perfect date night spot, as well as for a family outing.

Comment: An hour after I found out about this places existence I was there, the people who own/run this place were super accommodating and wonderful.Best restaurant within many miles. I have waited so long for a legit Japanese restaurant with good ramen and more traditional dishes. What I got was AMAZING ramen and dishes I would normally only expect from a proper izakaya.Shoyu ramen was complex and smokey and perfectly fatty, pork was tender, noodles cooked perfectly. Katsu curry was crispy, flavorful, and super stick-to-your-ribs satisfying.I cant want to go back. They have great lunch specials so this is probably my new lunch spot.Trust the reviews, they are all five stars for a reason.

Comment: My wife and I went yesterday to this new Japanese spot and so glad I went (My 1st time/wife 2nd time). The food was so good and this is the only place that I totaly finished the miso soup lol. We got the ika butter, green tea drink, karaage chicken, black seewed salad, japanese sausage, wife got ramen noodles and I got the pork tonkatsu. Everything was so good even the green tea ice cream for dessert was good. The place is great, owner and chef created a real authentic restaurant usually only found in NYC but this is in Mahopac. Also they have sushi lol.

We ordered vegetable sushi rolls, gyoza dumplings (my favorite), and the Donburi rice box!! The house blend green tea was also amazing. All of the food was so so delicious, and the most authentic Japanese I’ve ever had.This is our new favorite restaurant and we will definitely be back!

Comment: Was passing through Mahopac and found this restaurant by chance as they recently opened. Wow! Was thoroughly impressed by the sushi selection and the freshness and quality of the fish. My girlfriend had the curry soba and was in noodle heaven! I’ve been to Japan and this is probably the most authentic Japanese experience you can find in the state. Still thinking about the buttery sea urchin. Chef Yoshi you really made my night. Thank you!! I can’t wait to come back. Beyond highly recommended this place for lovers of sushi and Japanese fare.

Comment: Really couldnt say better things about this place, I had the Uni. Needless to say but first off, THEY ACTUALLY HAVE IT UNLIKE ANY OTHER PLACE IN MAHOPAC, also it was the best freshest Uni Ive ever had. Next, I had their karaage and it was insane, probably best Ive ever had. Everyone needs to come here for Japanese. Everyone else is either fusion or doesnt step up to the plate. Ill be here everyday for sure since I am next door.
