Yama Chinese Sushi/Grill on Highway 620 in RR

Chef Roger Jang

About a mile west of St. David’s Round Rock Hospital on Highway 620, you’ll find a small strip mall with a killer Asian restaurant. Remember this name: Yama Chinese Sushi/Grill. This place is seriously good.

Chef Roger Jang and his wife Elaine have created an uncommonly good Chinese and Japanese/ Sushi menu. I’ve tried the Gyoza (potstickers), a number of the Rolls, the Szechuan Beef, the Salt and Pepper Shrimp and the Vegetable Yakisoba. All delicious. Roger Jang is a heavy hitter in Chinese circles, having helmed legendary restaurants like Bejing, Hunan Lion, and the Tea Garden.

I can see that I am going to be spending a lot of time working my way through this menu. The phone is (512) 671-4788. Please go there NOW because this place deserves more of an audience than it’s currently getting.
