The short version
  • Frequently called the best sushi in Vilnius — and by some, in all of Lithuania.
  • Exceptionally fresh ingredients, balanced flavours and beautiful, careful presentation.
  • A creative menu of unique sushi combinations plus ramen and poke-style bowls.
  • A tiny space with very limited seating — built for takeaway and delivery.

Big flavours from a tiny kitchen

Yama Sushi, at Fabijoniškių g. 2 in the Fabijoniškės district, has earned an outsized reputation: many diners call it the best sushi in Vilnius, and some go further and say the best in Lithuania. The praise centres on quality and care — fresh ingredients, original flavour combinations, and presentation so neat it elevates even a takeaway box. Run by a friendly, passionate chef and team, it's the sort of small local favourite people return to and recommend without hesitation.

The menu reaches beyond classic rolls into creative, unique combinations, with popular ramen and poke-style bowls alongside the sushi. The trade-off is space: the room is very small with limited seating, and the official website confirms a focus on delivery and takeaway. For the best experience, order ahead for pickup or delivery and enjoy the food at home — that's how this spot is built to be eaten.

Good to know

Some diners note the rolls can run small for the price, and the official website doesn't publish a full menu or pricing, so it's worth checking the latest options via a delivery platform before ordering. Given how few tables there are, treat Yama as a takeaway or delivery spot first; it's a little outside the centre, so most visitors will order in rather than make the trip to dine.

  • Address: Fabijoniškių g. 2, Vilnius — in the Fabijoniškės district, north of the centre.
