8 Best Japanese Restaurants near Fultondale

“Our host was super kind. Service was pretty good cause I liked our server but she got my to go order wrong that I ordered for my mom and I didn’t know until we were home already. I tried to call next day but they were too busy to answer I guess. Not sure if I’ll be back to this location I usually go to the other one in Hoover.“

“I pulled a non-Karen today and asked for the manager. I explained to her how amazed I was at their food and how utterly fantastic it is. I ordered an unagi poke bowl and a salmon Maki roll via GrubHub, then I went there in person and ordered the unagidon and salmon roll, and today I ordered the steak teppanyaki, salad, seaweed salad (OMG - seriously? BEST I'VE EVER HAD), and got the tonkotsu ramen with menma. She remembered me from my order today and when I was there last week. Let's talk about the salmon roll - absolutely fresh and filled with thick pieces of salmon and perfectly cooked sushi rice. The rice was a compliment rather than the main to the roll. The steak? Chef's kiss. perfectly seasoned and tender with amazing veggies. Serving size? Goodness, well deserved of the price. The seaweed salad? OMG. usually, I'll get a teensy bit for the same price. Here, you get a good chunk of it but it's served over romaine lettuce with chopped cucumbers. It's definitely a true salad. Now, let's talk about the tonkotsu. The chasu pork is seared perfectly and absolutely delectable. It's also served with green onions, an excellent half of a shoyu egg, and I added menma (bamboo shoots). The broth is excellent and you can tell it has been carefully taken care of (a tad garlicky, but that's fine with me), silky, and says "I'm your comfort food" over and over again. Lastly, the service shows how much they care about their food and their customers. Like I said, I pulled a Non-Karen and spoke to the manager and sang praises for their food and service. I now have my favorite Japanese spot now that I'm back in Birmingham. PS. their unagidon is on fire! Yum!“

“wonderful sushi burrito, salsa and fresh chips“

“We had a really nice brunch there. The food quality was really good. The sushi was tasty. Exceptional breakfast courses. The drinks were exceptional. Our server Marco was super attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back, and highly recommend this place.“

“Awesome food and service! We had a large party and everyone loved their food, including the vegan!“

“Absolutely loved this place! Top shelf sushi and service for sure! The restaurant itself was ok, but they certainly need a more upscale environment for this level of food and service. But don't tell them! Their prices are several dollars less for similar dishes from Stix. Very lucky find for me! I'll be back!

Parking: It's in a shopping center. Plenty of parking“
