21 Best Japanese Restaurants in Burbank

“I've been eating here for over 30 years and I love it every time. The people, the food and the feeling of home keep me coming back. :)“

“Such a hidden gem on West Verdugo! The sushi here is consistently high quality and beautifully presented. You can really tell they care about the ingredients. Service is fast and super friendly every single time. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for authentic and delicious sushi in Burbank!“

“Best sushi ever! I highly recommend them! The food is sooooo good!“

“I’ve been coming here for the last couple decades staff are all very friendly, and the food is always very tasty. Their happy hour Monday deals are fantastic.“

“For starters the sushi here was absolutely bomb all of the rolls that we ordered were amazing there as genuinely nothing bad let alone mediocre. On top of that the service that we received from our server Kim was elite she always made sure that we were taken care of and was incredibly sweet. If you haven’t tried this place already you are missing out.“

“Delicious! And!! They have A5-Wagyu!! You can definitely taste the difference. Too bad I’m not from around here cause I’d definitely hit this spot up on a regular basis! Staff is friendly, fast, and efficient, and has a great atmosphere for dinner dates!“

“Good Sushi place to visit again.“

“I just went to eat here for lunch on a Saturday to have sushi and I had the best experience. The food was great and the servers were very nice especially a really nice girl named Julia she made my dining experience so much better she was very nice and very attentive when serving she brought me water napkins and I didn’t even have to ask for anything. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves sushi. The food is outstanding and the service is second to none. It’s my favorite restaurant to eat at.“

“I enjoyed my rainbow roll, and Hollie P was a great server who made sure that my soy and sesame allergies were accommodated and helped me get an alternate sauce that I could have. It’s maybe 5 pieces sushi for $10, so more snack or light meal than substantial, but that just means you can try more things. Tasty food, nice ambience.“

“I stopped in on a rainy afternoon and placed my order at 1:15 PM. Unfortunately, I wasn’t informed when my food was ready, and it ended up sitting there without me realizing. It would have been nice if someone had let me know. Clear communication would have made the experience much better.“

“Wanted sushi before heading back home from Universal Studios was tired of 2 days park food. Found this place thru Yelp and it didn’t disappoint. We loved the fresh Uni, Chu Toro, & Monk Fish Liver nigiris. Everything was good! A very expensive lunch but was worth it ❤️👍🏼. Very attentive staff too.“

“Tatsu Sushi is truly a cut above all other sushi places in LA. The kaiseki chirashi made by Chef Ike (ee-kay) is nothing short of ART. For ~$35, it absolutely destroys any other sushi restaurant in terms of value, taste, portion size, and presentation. FORGET Sugarfish or any other “elevated” sushi (Sushi Roku, etc)… and please trust me on this! This is a true small business that doesn’t pay for any extra overhead marketing or corporate stuff and the savings are clearly passed right to the customer. I’ve had sushi all over California and this is the absolute standout for me! My photos are evidence of the commitment to amazing consistency in presentation. If you’re looking for a sushi place in the Valley, take this as a sign that THIS IS IT!“

“Todo delicioso y exelente atencion“

“My wife and I came for the happy hour and really enjoyed it. And using their happy hour, we wonder why people go to buffet restaurants. I am a big eater - and I was well fed with a bill - after taxes and before tipp of $54 for the two of us. Including two beers. Of course, it is not the Nobu - but I bet you agree that is not what one would expect from this place. The service was good - and the ambiance a tad worn. I guess I'd rather dine at the Pasadena location - just because the ambiance is more appealing. Other than that: if you have cravings for sushi and money is an issue, the happy hour (even on weekends!) is a fantastic deal.“

“Absolutely amazing! The food was bursting with flavor and honestly felt like pure bliss. The prices were incredibly reasonable for the quality, and the staff were some of the friendliest people I've met. Great food, great value, and outstanding service. I can't wait to come back! 😋“

“Not Burbank locations fault!!! Definitely a corporate issue so tried not to cause their star rating to suffer. All kinds of money back and free offers on app but kept asking for credit card info over and over. I want to use a digital payment like Apple Pay etc but would not let me. Did to feel more secure when ordering.“

“The food was great, service was great . however one of the workers up front was causing a disturbance while I was ordering my food , not professional AT ALL I asked if everything was ok and cashier just apologized. Even thought the cashier apologized I still find it unacceptable that this altercation even happened in the first place. It was really embarrassing to watch and I hope that no ones is fired or blamed but hope that the co workers of the older lady can help try and be more polite.“

“Though we came near closing, we didn't feel the rush to kick us out of the place. Very good food through the years. Courteous servers. I will definitely come back for more sushi.“

“Visiting Burbank for the first time with my sister, we decided to try Silverlake Ramen, and we’re glad we did!

As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted and given the option of where we’d like to sit. The restaurant has a cute, relaxed atmosphere that made us feel comfortable right away.

We both ordered the ramen combo. I had the Classic Ramen with fried gyoza, and my sister ordered the Classic Ramen with a pork bun. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and really hit the spot. The staff also checked on us throughout our meal, which made the experience even better.

Overall, we really enjoyed both the food and the service. We’d definitely come back the next time we’re in the area!“

“My sister and I always order our food in Yoshinoya due to its freshness and affordability. Most importantly, the staff are always courteous and friendly. Today, we ordered in Yoshinoya's Burbank branch and we appreciated the friendly services of Maria Cecilia.“

“They have good food. Can be busy at times. Sunday does not have the same staff and sometimes can't handle a rush.
Lots of variations to choose from. My favorite is the beef bowl. They have good burgers and also variations of charbroiled chicken and other items added to burgers.
Worth a visit for lunch or dinner.“
