Yama Sushi & Grill, Concord

If you have yet to try Yama, it's a great time to visit the hugely-popular Japanese restaurant. It's a culinary destination for those seeking outstanding service.

There's not really a recommended attire, so feel free to dress comfortably.

For those who are interested, the menu does feature healthy items and it's been tabbed as a nice option for both families with children and large groups. If you're in a hurry, you can always take advantage of the convenient take-out offerings. Or, if you just want to stop by for a beverage, the restaurant has a pretty broad selection at its bar.

A good spot for both lunch and dinner, Yama is definitely worth picking up the chop sticks for. Don't worry about trying to find a spot on the street, as visitors to the restaurant do have access to a private parking lot nearby.
