Yami Sushi House has been one of Prague's most celebrated Japanese dining destinations since it opened near Old Town Square in the early 2000s. Located in the heart of Staré Město, the restaurant quickly gained a reputation for its meticulous approach to sushi — sourcing quality fish and combining traditional Japanese technique with creative fusion sensibilities.
The Dlouhá street location features an open sushi bar where guests can watch chefs slice fish to order and assemble each roll by hand. The menu spans a remarkable range: from simple temaki hand cones and classic nigiri to elaborate aburi (flame-seared) fusion rolls like the signature Yami Roll, plus Korean-influenced hot plates such as bibimbap and kimchi jjigae. This breadth reflects both Japanese and Korean culinary traditions — a nod to the chef's background and the tastes of Prague's international dining scene.
Yami has spawned a sister venue — Yami Sushi Bistro — also in the Old Town area, testament to the brand's enduring local following. The restaurant is a perennial fixture on Prague's best-sushi lists and has welcomed both tourists discovering Czech-Japanese fusion and locals who return regularly for the Volcano Roll or a Sashimi Set Special. Reservations are strongly recommended, especially on weekends.
