50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Bellflower

“Muy amigables todos y la cómoda esta deliciosa .“

“got one roll with way too much rice in one bite and wondered if id made a mistake but then the salmon belly melted on my tongue and everything was totally fine

perfect little spot the staff are freindly and the miso is warming“

“This place has replaced Benihana for my family of 4. The food is just as good if not better! The chef is still in plain sight which I like because I can see my food being cooked. The staff came to our table a few times to check on us even though it's not serviced that way. They prepare your food and you sit and eat. Simple and it doesn't take 3 hours like benihana. I love that we can come here and just be served amazing hibachi without the long wait. We are regulars now and hope they are here to stay for a while! Oh, and the veggies are AMAZING!“

“I think this had to be some of the best teriyaki I've ever had or at least that I've had in a very long time friendly staff decent portions but I think the medium bowl is close to the same size as the large so you'd probably be better off with the medium sized bowl if that's what you get but very very happy with the food I got and am very much looking forward to going back very soon and trying other things“

“You can eat your style taco, burrito, tostada, salad, hamburger or plate you can choose grill jalapeño, chiles different kind of hot sauces and good teriyaki taste excellent service“

“The chicken teriyaki is bomb!“

“We had a really nice experience! The side of the restaurant has enough space for a few tables to dine in, and it felt cozy. The service was quick, friendly, and efficient. I liked that they had sauces and water available right at the tables for self-service.

We dined in, and everything came out fast! We spent around $40 for a chicken bowl, two sushi rolls, and two miso soups ,perfect for two adults and a toddler. The food was amazing! My husband said the teriyaki chicken was really good, and I agree. the chicken was juicy, not dry at all. The salmon sushi was good too, just a little warm for my husband’s liking, but overall, everything had great flavor.

The music was a fun surprise, they were playing some techno, which we didn’t mind at all! It actually made the experience more fun. We even found ourselves dancing a little while eating. Definitely a place we’d come back to!“

“The lunch special caught my eye as I was walking by. Walked in was greeted so warmly. Kiki attended me and she was great and provided the best hospitality. It’s family owned, so I’m glad I was able to help support their business!!!“

“This is one of the best and only place we like to go. They are very friendly and best fresh sushi all around. it really feels like a small family enviroment“

“Osaka Story has some of the best sushi I have ever had! Theres plenty of different options to chose from on the menu and the portions have a lot of fish. Such a nice atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is so welcoming and sweet. Highly recommend!“

“This place is AMAZING! The food is delicious and reasonably priced (and plenty to take home), the atmosphere is cool and the drinks are cheap! But the real stand-out is the staff - they are super nice and are working really hard to make sure everyone feels welcome. My new favorite place in LA!!“

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.“

“Fresh sashimi, cozy atmosphere & friendly staff! A must visit Japanese dining restaurant in Pico Rivera :)“

“The staff are friendly. We enjoyed the Kitchen boat. The garlic fried rice with chicken was very good and tasted similar to hibachi fried rice. Brought my young nephews and they enjoyed the beef and chicken teriyaki. Will definitely come again and will try other sushi and noodles dishes.“

“The food is delicious!!! The broth for the beef ramen is so flavorful and the gyoza are perfectly cooked! The drinks and water are refreshing. The service is great! Very kind and polite. As a anime watcher, I love the atmosphere, the lights and anime posters with the music make it very enjoyable to be there.“

“Really enjoyed this spot. The sushi rolls were fresh, flavorful, and plated really nicely. The crispy toppings, sauces, and presentation made the rolls stand out, and the edamame was a solid appetizer. The restaurant had a cozy vibe and the meal felt worth it overall. Definitely a place I’d come back to and recommend for sushi. My partner and i really enjoyed.“

“Have eaten here about 10 times . This restaurant doesn’t disappoint. I’ve tried all there’s sushi roll which are always fresh and delicious.“

“I just randomly stopped in for an Asahi beer.Then I decided to try the RISING SUN ROLL. OMG.super delicious and mouth watering. I'm coming back with my friends“

“Always good food. Started eating there a few years ago when I just happened to hear about what the owner did for a customer that had his food eaten by a food delivery service driver. Stand up guy! Always a good interaction when I stop in! Highly recommend them. The garlic noodles are delicious“

“so far everything I've tried has been delicious!“

“Usually I save TikTok videos of restaurants I wanna try when I travel to LA but we were starving when we got out of the source oc plaza and just randomly searched a ramen place nearby. This was the place nearest to us that the ramen pics looked appealing. I have to say the ramen here was amazing. It tasted almost the same to the ramen we tried in our trip to Tokyo. And our server was so nice and attentive. He was so sweet that he gave our mom her drink for free since she wasn’t going to consume food due to not liking ramen but she was accompanying us. Found this place by accident but i have now marked it as a favorite and will definitely go back!“

“My bestfriend and I went for happy hour and had a great time! Awesome music, great service, tasty cocktails, and delicious food! We ordered mixed tempura, octopus, ceviche and yellowtail carpaccio! Lovely presentation and everything was yummy! We especially loved the tequila and mezcal options! Will definitely come back and recommend for groups and dates!“

“Best teriyaki chicken“

“We went here for the AYCE sushi and got the premium menu because we're visiting Socal for vacation. Absolutely phenomenal with the service and food! I love how friendly the staff was to us and explained how the process actually work. There are leftover fee + only order what you can eat! Definitely should ask for recommendations and they provide you a menu with pictures. I would absolutely come back here again! The parking lot is kinda small, but we were able to find a spot before the dinner rush.“

“This Japanese restaurant has been here at least 20 years. The food is fantastic. The service is welcoming. This is now our favorite Japanese restaurant. We use to go to the one on Rosecrans where Albertsons is. But there is no comparison to midoris food. We will be back again and again“

“I’ve ordered here 3 times and food here has been consistently fresh. This place is near where I live. I was surprised to find out it was just a take out establishment during my first visit. But services have been quick and they have gotten the orders right so far. They often send out discount codes which are very helpful in this economy. Prices are fairly reasonable. Try it if you’re in the mood for sushi!“

“service and the food was excellent our waitress Sherry bear was awesome“

“We tried the chicken katsu and a noodle dish, they were both really good. We want to go back and try some of their other options as they have so many. The service was excellent, the gentleman brought us all the sauces and was so nice. The place is small, with a few tables but very clean. Definitely recommend this place!“

“Food is amazing. Pork Katsu comes with 5-6 pork slices that are extremely juicy and tender. Rice on the bottom with salad. Amazing side dishes like pickled radish and cucumbers served with creamy soup.

Service is incredible. Very attentive waiter. Fast with drinks and extremely speedy with service. I ask for napkins or more water; I close my eyes for one second and it's literally all there! Kim Tae (Ted) is amazing! Great work ethic displayed and attentiveness.

Hope to come again with Ted being my server!“

“If you’re looking for top-tier takeout, Teriyaki Wa Sushi absolutely delivered. I ordered the three item bento with teriyaki chicken, shrimp tempura, and a Crunchy Roll, and everything held up incredibly well by the time I got home. The teriyaki chicken was juicy and packed with amazing flavor that perfect balance of savory, slightly sweet, and rich umami that really stands out. Every bite tasted fresh and well-seasoned, not rushed or generic like a lot of takeout spots.

What really impressed me was how both the flavor and texture stayed on point. The shrimp tempura had a clean, crispy crunch without any greasiness, and the Crunchy Roll was fresh, flavorful, and layered with great texture. Nothing got soggy thanks to the smart packaging, everything was separated and neatly put together. This is exactly how takeout should be done: bold flavor, quality ingredients, and consistency from start to finish. Definitely going back.“

“Love this place .. the staff there is so friendly It’s amazing they make you feel so welcomed and the food is so fresh.“

“Quality fresh food for a cheap price! Located next to Starbucks and Subway, this place is owned by a very sweet family. I would definitely recommend getting the chicken beef plate, but everything on their menu is delicious. Support local businesses during this rough time!“

“As near to an authentic upscale Japanese izakaya one can find in Long Beach. Greeted by an attentive and professional staff, seated promptly (make a reservation), and drinks came immediately. The flavors and styles of food transported me back to my time living near Tokyo. Truly a unique and delicious experience and I cannot wait to go back.“

“The chicken teriyaki is bomb!“

“Delicious food, great preparation and presentation!“

“I had the sake salmon and egg sando.
The sando was good. Moist egg filling and well toasted bread. The sake salmon...goodness gracious. It was delicious! I want to try more items on the menu, but I may have a hard time not ordering the salmon again. I highly recommend Neighborhood Bento.
It's definitely worth noting that the staff were cheerful, knowledgeable, and professional. I will definitely come here again.“

“I recommend everything, thank you for lunch...“

“One of the best restaurants in Long Beach for Peruvian, style, seafood, ceviche, and Sushi. Family owned and operated with a friendly vibe and amazing service.“

“One of the best inari sushi spots I've tried! Everything tasted amazing, the portions were generous, and the prices were hard to beat. The staff made us feel so welcome with their friendly service. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. You won't be disappointed!“

“Food is amazing and the prices are actually very good for the amount of meat you get. Love that they are healthy conscious, they had a list of some menu items and their protein and sodium content as well as other measurements which made making a selection so much easier. Will return, staff is very friendly and the food was made fresh and quick“

“Had the halibut sashimi (광어회) at Hiyori in Buena Park, and it was absolutely top-notch! The quality of the fish was outstanding, and I was completely satisfied. The atmosphere is bright and clean, making for a really pleasant dining experience. Highly recommend! (Check out the photos!)“

“Stumbled upon this location looking for somewhere to eat and when I tell you the amazing smells drew us in like a siren call??? There was a barely noticeable wait and we spent it eagerly looking at the menu. Service extremely prompt and scrupulous. Place is a bit small and they fill the space, so be prepared for loud noises. Food came out pretty fast, especially for being slammed, and it was all very, very good! Tried the ramen, udon, and one of the 'baked' rolls. 100% would come back to try more of all of the above!“

“Best Japanese Food in Whittier“

“Nice quality good service“

“The best sushi experience!“

“I was honestly impressed with the food and the uniqueness of their rolls. I had one with salmon and cream cheese that was hitting hard that I cant quite remember the name to. The prices were on the higher end but I was well satisfied overall. Service was also great which I noticed reviews weren't too fond of.“

“Donburi Cafe brings a vibrant blast of authentic Japanese comfort straight to the heart of Long Beach. Tucked into a lively shopping center, this high-energy neighborhood destination pairs a cozy, casual indoor dining area and a welcoming outdoor patio with exceptionally warm, friendly hospitality. The kitchen delivers bold, scratch-made flavor, pairing their signature loaded donburi (traditional Japanese rice bowls) like savory Gyudon beef and crispy Chicken Katsu with authentic ramen, fresh bento boxes, gyoza, and comforting curry dishes.“

“I've gone here since I was born. Great beef teriyaki and chicken teriyaki like no other. The salad is fresh and crunchy and th service there is very friendly and helpful. The grilled chicken is fire! Always bring family and friends to try it. They never disappoint. 😀👍🏻“

“honestly The food is very very good, I rate the his place a 10/10 in food and service. For being a Japanese restaurant this food is very tasty, the only thing is that they will serve your food in to go plates. Understandable, but if you are craving something with a lot of variety very good food, healthy and good in nutrients I have to recommend you this place. Also, if you are on a diet this place have the BEST fresh produce you can imagine so gymbros and gym girls do not miss this place 👍✅“
