About this place
Diners who chose the wine-steamed young chicken at lunch have described dipping the bread in olive oil and rock salt, or soaking it in the Japanese-style sauce. Another visitor singled out the tender chicken and the flavour of the sauce coating each bite. Other lunch mains include Kagoshima pork fillet cutlet, hamburger steak and fried white fish. Some diners report being able to choose rice or bread, a welcome option for anyone who wants to mop up the sauce.
Lunch has been reported to come with soup, salad and rice, with the soup changing from day to day. One diner enjoyed basil soup; another had winter melon soup alongside the wine-steamed chicken. With a choice of main, lunch could suit either a meal between work commitments or a more leisurely midday break.
Dinner listings include game dishes such as shabu-shabu with bear or wild boar, as well as rice porridge made with either. A visitor who had the bear hot pot also enjoyed the porridge served to finish the meal. It’s an option for those looking to make an evening meal of both the hot pot and its final rice course.
Bistro Yamagata offers a broad selection, from appetisers and mains to dishes to finish the meal. Choose from the Western-style lunch options by day, or consider a set menu or game dishes in the evening, depending on the occasion.
