10 Best Japanese Restaurants in Sioux Falls

“I like this place a lot it was comfortable and the service was really top-notch. Everything came out in a very timely manner during the lunch hour which was important cuz I was in a hurry but I did have enough time to drink a bottle of sake.“

“It was perfect. Perfect. Down to the last minute detail.Seriously, I can’t express how great the food and service here is. My wife and I came here as we were visiting a friend in Sioux Falls. I’ve never had restaurant ramen before, and my friend suggested Tokyo. I loved my experience from beginning to end. Our server was excellent and helped my wife pick out a sushi roll that was cooked and not spicy. He even recommended a secret-menu roll to her that she absolutely loved. They brought us sushi chips on the house before our entree. I loved my first-ever bowl of ramen. It was so flavorful and filling. It will easily last 2 meals. I hope to return to Sioux Falls soon, and I will definitely make Tokyo a regular stop whenever I do.“

“So far the best sushi in Sioux Falls. The quality of the fish is just so much better than the other places in Sioux Falls. Had the two tone sushi combo of tuna and salmon, just wow. Nice large pieces of fish on top of sushi rice. I would say they provided 50% more fish than the normal sushi places in town, and the flavor was spot on.A little expensive for an everyday kind of restaurant, but a great special date night kind of a place. Average cost $30-40 a person I would sayNote, this is a small mom and pop location, so seating is very limited.“

“Had a lunch meal here. I had never tried it and it was not busy. You are self seated when you arrive and then order at the front when you are ready. Then, the food was brought to the table. The food is conveniently given so you can package the leftovers to take home. Food was a cool variety of things that differ from the usual rice/noodles with whatever meat as well as tasty. We were in and out quickly and I am definitely wanting to try it again next time we are downtown SF!“

“The Tokyo restaurants are owned by mostly the same people. With that in mind, they seem to have a great idea of etiquette. Not only are the staff professional and hardworking, but they try to make their customers feel welcome. It's a lovely feeling in these cloudy days to have a polite conversation, if not a potential friendship if not cordial relationship with your meal.Speaking of meals, the food is usually amazing. While it's no surprise that eating at a sushi place can be spendy, you can be assured that you'll be getting your money's worth for it. That, and sometimes they will provide complimentary snacks based on occasion or the aforementioned good customer disposition.Also for food, their fried rice is addicting. I'm not ashamed to admit I ate chicken fried rice for a week straight at one point.“

“I ordered the sashimi salad with the sweet potato tempura appetizer and taro Boba tea. The dressing on the salad was too salty so I would ask for that on the side or swap out the dressing next time. The staff were very kind and professional, can't wait to come back here again!“

“There was a bit of miscommunication on the rolls I ordered- but I think I could have handled it a bit differently:I’m allergic to avocados, so I asked they be substituted with cucumbers. One roll was, and it may have just been because I pointed it out on the menu, however, another one was not and came to me with avocados, but it also didn’t list avocados in the menu. The wait staff was amazing in correcting it for me!The food was phenomenal! I got miso soup, an appetizer and 3 different rolls than I normally do and I could not tell you which one I loved the most, they were all delicious and fresh!Will definitely eat here again. Excuse the half eaten rolls in the photos, they were so good I didn’t think to stop for photos.“

“This was a wonderful place to have Thai. They were very helpful with selecting menu items that were vegan and gluten free. The food was delicious.Vegetarian options: They can substitute soy sauce for fish sauce. Tofu, pad Thai, sweet potato fries.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, vegan, vegetarian“

“My kids and I decided to try this place out for the first time tonight. It was right before 6 when we arrived. Not much of a wait to have our order taken. The cashier was very friendly and helpful, answered our questions and was patient with our indecisiveness. Decided on salmon, teriyaki and orange chicken, all 3 bowls with noodles. By the time we sat down (had all clean tables and drink station that I saw) after getting our drinks, the customers had filled the lobby. I realized then, there was lots of food delivery orders coming out of that kitchen.We observed people until our dinner was brought to our table- the interactions, mannerisms, patience, multitasking and composure. The cashier was very busy taking and bagging up orders, and serving customers. I was happy to see a gentleman from the kitchen come to her aid before it became too overwhelming. The delivery drivers were patient, alert and prompt on grabbing the orders as soon as they came up. Carry out orders were just the same. Only customers who vocalized their impatience on food orders were for dine in. And to that, I’d like to remind them, this restaurant is not fast food, it’s made to order. Coming at a prime dinner time near a busy intersection of SF, you can expect a wait, especially with so many people ordering online these days. Overall, I was pleased with the way people treated each other during the hour we spent there, as it was all part of our first dining experience there.The teriyaki salmon with noodles and all veggies was delicious. My kids preferred the orange chicken over teriyaki and with less veggies. The gentleman from the kitchen came to check in to make sure we liked what we ordered. I also let the cashier know it was really good and thanked her again before we left.Between the food and customer service, we will definitely be coming back!Kid-friendliness: My kids really liked the forks and the jr bowls were perfect size for them!“

“Wow. This place has something for everyone! So many options for Chinese and quite a few American foods as well. The staff was friendly and nice. We came in, waited to be seated, ordered our drinks and then had the option of 6+ buffet lines. I definitely recommend them. I will be back! I also want to note that the price was very reasonable!“
