About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Healthy
Our South City residence, our founding Japanese restaurant that opened in 1995, remains the flagship location of the Yamamori Group. Boasting an array of delights, including tempura, sushi, homemade dumplings, ramen, and katsu curry, all prepared fresh daily, it has secured its place as a pioneer of Japanese cuisine in Dublin. Beyond its culinary offerings, Yamamori South has etched a lively history into the city’s landscape, complete with a friendly and dedicated staff, ensuring a memorable dining experience for all. We will celebrate our 30th anniversary in August 2025, and we believe that the Yamamori Group will continue to serve Dubliners as a household name in dining and thrive as a bustling business for years to come.

    Food was delicious myself and a friend shared a large sushi platter, prawn gyoza and tempura prawn, hot food came out piping hot and sushi arrived at a perfect temperature and all sushi was fresh and tasted beautifully

    I've been to this restaurant several times in the past 6 months and always get the Teriyaki salmon as it is usually perfectly just cooked and so moist. Yesterday 19.05.26 it was quite dry so very disappointing. My guest had the Tuna in sweet soy sauce it was served in a bowl drowning in sauce, he had to replate his meal as it was overwhelmed in sauce. Can you please go back to the way things were :)
    Yamamori South CityResponded on May 21, 2026
    Thank you for coming back to us so many times over the past 6 months, and for taking the time to share this feedback. We’re especially disappointed to hear that your recent visit didn’t live up to the standard you’ve come to expect from us. The Teriyaki salmon should absolutely be moist and perfectly cooked, so we’re sorry it was dry on this occasion. That’s not the balance or presentation we aim for. Your comments have been shared with our kitchen team so we can address the consistency issues immediately. We truly value loyal guests like you, and we appreciate you letting us know rather than simply not returning. We hope to welcome you back soon and give you the experience you’ve enjoyed with us previously. Warm regards.

    Service with a smile! We asked for a booth and were accommodated. All our servers were lovely. We were well looked after and not rushed at all. The food was delicious!
