50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Citrus Heights

“Excellent menu.
Excellent service.
Excellent food quality and presentation.
Negatives. Felt like their ac was not working well on this hot day and therefore it was a bit stuffy.
They were also out of an appetizer and dessert which should not be the case early Saturday evening before the dinner rush.“

“I have been coming to Fukumi for awhile, not as often as I like but for awhile. The food is always super good and fresh and the staff, helping and delightful. the resturant is on the smaller side but nice and intimate. I appreciate places like these. Thank you Fukumi and wish you years of success.“

“My boyfriend and I now frequent Sushi Star since discovering the place a couple of months ago! It’s always very clean. A very pleasant atmosphere. Our waitress has always been Yi. She is very pleasant and thorough. Now, then there is the master sushi chef, Eric! IOHO we think he makes the best sushi we have ever had hands down! Our BIGGEST RECOMMENDATION IS THE BAKED SCALLOPS! ABSOLUTELY DYNAMITE! Thanks guys! Neil & Courtney“

“Mizuki in Citrus Heights is hands down my favorite spots for sushi in Sacramento. It’s become a go-to for our work (Deacon) crew for years; we’re here so often that the owner, Ella, knows us all by name. That personal touch makes every visit feel special.

The food is consistently amazing. The Red Dragon roll is my favorite with jalapeño peppers also it’s just packs the perfect kick. The Citrus Roll is fresh, flavorful, and a perfect signature touch. And don’t even get me started on the gyoza—easily the best in town. Pam seared to perfection on the outside, flavorful inside, and always served piping hot.

Whether it’s a casual lunch or a post-shift sushi fix, Mizuki is always my go-to. Can’t recommend it enough!“

“One of our all time favorites. And we’ve tried it all. We always return!!“

“The staff is very welcoming, refilled our waters before we even look, the food is delicious and melt in your mouth AMAZING! My husband is picky about his seafood but wanted to try everything! Couldn't get pictures of my husband's food because he enjoyed it so much😁“

“Great food and stellar service absolutely love this place.“

“We ordered two combos of the ramen and kimbap and one of the soup (I forget), bulgogi kimbap, and the fire chicken. All were very good. Our server was a young woman who had blue hair. She was very nice and attentive and polite. I loved her! The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. I want to come back and try their other food.“

“Wife and I went for lunch today, we had the seaweed salad, ebi nigiri, spciy California roll, ocean roll and dragon roll. The food was very fresh and each item tasted great. Most sushi places I go to all rolls taste the same. This was not the case at Tokyo express. We will be back.“

“The food was simply sensational, exceeding our expectations with every bite. The sushi was exquisitely prepared, featuring fresh, high-quality ingredients that delighted my taste buds. What truly set this place apart was the warm and inviting atmosphere, where the staff treated us like a cherished guests. From their friendly greetings to their attentive service, we felt a genuine sense of belonging. This combination of exceptional cuisine and heartfelt hospitality made our experience truly memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend Silver Sake to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience where the food is extraordinary and the feeling of being part of a family is unparalleled.“

“Teriyaki chicken and every meat taste really delicious and I really want to eat every day! Also, the Servers are really kind and helpful! I really like teriyaki grilled chicken in Arden mall!!“

“Fantastic food, diverse menu and great prices. Service is great“

“The best sushi in the area without question. They never skimp on portions and they always have the freshest fish, that just melts in your mouth. And of course, they always super friendly.“

“This was my first time visiting. I recommend trying the tempura and pepper fins they were great it had a really nice presentation. I also tried the California roll, which tasted okay, though the rice had a weird color that threw me off a bit. Overall, the service was a positive experience“

“I wish I could give 10 stars for atmosphere, service, and food. Chef Cam’s delivery and expertise of his craft was unmatched — who knew such a gem exists right here off Madison Ave.

Oh, and ask if they have Truffle! Sourced wild and locally from The King’s Bolete.“

“Teriyaki Town offers delicious Japanese food in Roseville. The spicy pork plate was flavorful and extremely tender. Appetizers like the crispy egg rolls and pot stickers were great. I really recommended the Lion King Roll – it has excellent flavor! Expect generous portions, a variety of Japanese dishes beyond teriyaki, and friendly service. A solid choice for a satisfying meal.“

“First off don't let their exterior scare you off. I drove by the restaurant, saw the darkened for and no windows and almost left without going inside. I was pleasantly surprised to find a bright welcoming restaurant inside. I ordered the lunch special. It was up quickly and they packed my to-go bag with chopsticks, plastic ware, napkins and extra sauce packets! Food was tasty and fresh. Definitely coming back again.“

“I was in the area on a business trip and stopped by for dinner. Ordered the Tuna Lava roll and Sashimi sampler. Fresh, delicious and smooth taste. The have a large menu selection, the staff is friendly and it is one of those family run places where you are guaranteed to get good food and good service.
I would definitely recommend.“

“What a great place to come celebrate my son’s victory at state cup quals today. Next stop State Cup Semi-Finals. Victoria did amazing, very quick and pleasant- her as our server made it that much better of a celebration. I should have taken before photos but my son and I pretty much devoured everything without breathing. 😋 Thank you Pier 50 for the incredible experience“

“Just go!

The ramen is as authentic as it gets!

Kara miso ramen with pork chashu
And a pork bun

Can’t find this anywhere else, the pork chashu is my favorite. It’s chared but glazed? Yum! Very spicy be careful 🤪

I love coming here! Great service!“

“I 100% recommend this place! The staff was incredible. Their food was really good and I loved the teriyaki sauce 🤤. I loved the atmosphere because they had real plants and it felt very welcoming. We also had wonderful service, and they had our food done quickly and it was quite good. I recommend their spicy edamame and the lychee marble soda. They sell mini bamboo plants for just 10 dollars each. They also sell fun snacks, cute candies, and other things.“

“I did an online pickup order as this restaurant is nearby my work. Right next to Starbucks. I ordered a Thai Chicken Plate and a Crunch Roll. As I walked in, the gentleman behind the counter greeted me with a smile as he helped me get my order. The food was delicious! I will definitely go back to try other rolls!“

“Delicious and fresh fish quality, melts in your mouth. Chef's choice sushi was brilliant. The rice is a great texture, just needs a slight bit more warmth to be perfect. Good texture for ochazuke if they ever decide to go there 😃. Soup was perfect. Salad was your typical iceberg lettuce with standard dressing. I could've skipped the salad altogether. Service was excellent and the place is small but elegant.“

“great family restaurant. friendly staff.“

“Excellent food and service.
While visiting Folsom I stumbled upon this gem of a place. I ordered a rice teriyaki dish with tofu and vegetables.
It was excellent!! Real tofu not the spongy kind. The portion was a good size. It was so tasty and light. Not full of oil. The owner, I'm assuming, was friendly and had lots of pride on his excellent dish. I ordered a to go chicken noodle dish for my son. He also raved about how good it was. My new favorite place to go to.“

“My girlfriend Sumi and I come to Noma on a regular basis because the food, services, and overall experience is always 5 star!!! Giimaa the owner is so friendly and welcoming. We love Giimaa and her daughter’s service. If you are looking for a good ramen/sushi joint with fair prices come to Noma Sushi & Ramen! I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“I'm not a fan of most miso soup but this miso was so tasty I picked up the bowl and tipped it back to get it all out the teriyaki beef with spicy tuna roll and chicken tasty with tempura roll combo plates 🍽 tasty tasty and plenty on the plate did not leave hungry“

“I'm on vacation with the family. Pack your bags, I'm going to take you on a rant. A lot of the time fast food is the easiest option. We did not want everything we ate to be fast food. With that said, sushi is always a fresh option.
Zakuro is one of the best sushi places that i have come across in California. Literally. We've have been all over California. The creativity and flavors they produce are exceptional and inexpensive.
(Both rolls i ordered were deep fried. So much for being healthy lol)“

“We are long time visitors to Blue Nami and we love the convenience and how easy it is to also order it to go, the atmosphere is really cool. Kind of feels like Pirates of the Caribbean in there. The food is delicious my favorites the yummy yummy roll, crazy fly the lion King and the Jack special. If you love sushi, you will love this place. It taste so delicious. I highly recommend giving them a try.“

“I like this place a lot just make sure if you are planning to go to get there earlier if possible, if you are going for a weekend dinner i reccomend going 2 hours in advance since the waitlist is always pretty long. The employees are all really nice and i have never felt bad after eating here“

“Edit: Updated to 5 stars, I was just hangry. Still love this place and will be back very soon for another Deluxe plate!!!

Love the food, one of my favorite places. But last time I used the online ordering system, it sent my food to the wrong location. I called to ask what happened, but what I was told is that all I could do is come pick up my already cold order. It was good but cold. Ill come back because I like the food, but customer service could use a little work.“

“The flavor of this place has had me coming back for decades. Plus family owned and I love their faces 🥰“

“Best option for food in the mall hands down!! You already breaking the bank why pay the price to on your health as well??? Eat healthy, feel better!!!! Yum . On my way to eat here second day in a row. Thank you for providing healthy option here in the galleria mall!!!“

“Every birthday it’s been tradition that we go. My son absolutely loves it! The service is always great. We do the hibachi grill and the food is soo good! I got the filet mignon and lobster tail. Lobster tail was fresh and cooked perfectly and so was the filet mignon. Atmosphere is so much fun! We love this place. Thank you guys!!“

“Great food, great service, AWESOME staff! Best in town.“

“This place was worst every bite. The owner was very personable and took care of us. This sushi quality is amazing they could definitely charge more if they wanted but the price is so reasonable. If I lived in the area, I would come here every day.“

“Good customer service highly recommend triad plate 🍽️“

“Dining at Tokyo Dori was a delightful experience. We loved the beautiful ambience and cozy atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. We have wonderful and pleasant dining experience. We will definitely coming back.“

“I order online from here several times a month, and it’s consistently great! The food is always ready on time, and the staff are fast, polite, and efficient. The sushi quality is reliable and tastes freshly made every time.

My son is obsessed with the seafood udon—he loves the generous variety of seafood in it. And my daughter can't get enough of the Cherry Blossom roll (honestly, I don’t blame her).

This place has become a go-to for our family sushi nights, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“We visited Tangs for the first time on the 3rd of July. Exceptionally busy but even with a slower service than we anticipated we absolutely will be back. It was worth the wait!“

“Amazing & creative sushi rolls at 50% off all of the time. The waitresses are charming and attentive! Recently remodeled!“

“Pretty packed and loud but it was worth it. The food was really delicious. We had a great time. All the servers were great. It's a little on the pricey side but they give you big portions. My friends ordered family style and we all got so sample each other's food. I'd go again if I'm in town.“

“Absolutely love this place! The House Wife Roll was a standout so fresh and full of flavor. The Gor’s Special had a perfect hint of lemon over the salmon, making it light,unique, and delicious. If you’re into spice, the Tokyo Roll delivers just the right amount of heat. The zig zag handroll is a must!! Every dish was beautifully presented and incredibly fresh. The service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Easily one of the top sushi spots in Rancho Cordova and Carmicheal!!“

“It’s a nice place for lunch. Food tastes great and you will go back to your office with a scent of grilled meat like when attending a bbq event.
There is a large variety of items to choose from the menu.
Good thing they didn’t drown the beef with teriyaki sauce. It had plenty applied but additional was provided in a side container.“

“What a wonderful happy hour ! Met some wonderful people ☺️“

“The fish is fresh and the rolls are bomb“

“Yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy“

“I was looking for a sushi place with some reasonable prices, and found this place. I was a little hesitant to try it because of the name, but I'm glad I did!

Went with a few buddies, and we got some apps and each got two rolls. We left completely stuffed and happy. We didn't even finish our apps, even though we wanted to.

I would recommend trying the Roger roll. It comes out on its own plate, and is on fire to start! It was the first time I had a flambéed sushi roll, and it definitely imparted an irresistible flavor to it (similar to wok hei).“

“This restaurant truly offers a one-of-a-kind experience. The interior is beautifully designed, blending traditional Asian elements with modern touches to create a stylish yet comfortable setting. The staff were attentive and made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. The food was the star of the show, though. The sushi rolls were some of the best I’ve had, bursting with flavor and topped with delicate garnishes. The miso-glazed cod was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside and tender inside. Every dish was a flavor explosion. A must-visit for any food lover!“
