Yamagata Teppanyaki - Doncaster East

I went to this restaurant with my family, a total of six people. We opted for the Tokyo set menu. The seafood dishes were excellent, especially the plump and perfectly cooked scallops. My teenage daughters enjoyed the lively atmosphere, and the food was delicious, clean, and there was plenty of it. While teppanyaki meals can be pricey, it's worth it for the skillful chef, the entertaining games, and the high-quality food - all of which were abundant at this restaurant.

I went there with Elise last Friday night and I had the Teriyaki Steak and Rice with a Shirley Temple to drink and she had the same thing as well. We both shared a Banana Fritter for dessert but the glass of wine she had was devine. The staff were very kind to us and the service was amazing.

The restaurant was expensive for the portion sizes received, with dishes listed on the back page of the menu rather than the set teppanyaki offerings. While the flavors were good, the portions were small. The teppanyaki format had a range of prices, but upon observing the experience of others, it did not seem like good value for money. The chef added some entertainment by tossing raw eggs to be caught by diners and flipping food into their mouths, but it became repetitive and watching people play with their food was not enjoyable. I wondered what the chefs thought when yet another egg ended up on the floor.

We visited this restaurant for dinner and found all the dishes we ate to be very nice but their massaman curry was by far the best.

Beautiful setting, quiet atmosphere, friendly service. my family had a good time and definitely a memorable experience for overseas visitors. Quality of food was excellent, value for money. only fault i can find is that there is never enough of the good food... Thank you once again for the excellent service.
