The doors are shut and the lights are off; Yama at Bellevue Galleria is closed as they undergo renovations, and they will re-open as a Vietnamese-inspired restaurant with a “French twist.”
Yama, up until now, had been a Japanese restaurant. Recently the establishment had transformed on some nights into a club with a DJ and other forms of entertainment, allowing club promoters to charge cover. Yama opened at Bellevue Galleria in December 2006.
interesting. hmm. i’ll check it out again when it re-opens. it wasn’t that great of a place earlier when it was opened.
I’ve been there twice and liked the food. After the cinema closed it drastically reduced foot traffic to anything not located on the ground level.
