50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Granada Hills

“Always amazing genuine food! I always order from here and they always get it right. The #2 special is always my go to and they make it so good every single time. A little older of a building but don’t let the looks scare you away, their food is wonderful and so are the people behind the counter!“

“Very nice ambient and friendly waiters“

“Here for a birthday for my sister, she was craving sushi and she loved it. It was delicious, baked sushi took a little longer but it was very good. We like to rate place, this one or the other one, everyone picked this one. More expensive but worth it for special occasions.“

“Fast and courteous service! Good selection of food!“

“Everything was amazing from the service to the food and sushi and the environment is unassuming and comfortable. Top notch!“

“This is hands down my new favorite sushi place. I will never be going back to Katsuya. Joe is quite an extraordinary chef. I used to frequent a sushi restaurant he used to work at, but it wasn't the same after he left. I'm so grateful that I was able to find him here after a good hunt. Highly recommend!!!

Vegetarian options: You can ask for whatever you want that doesn't contain any meat. Like cucumber rolls, avocado rolls, egg rolls, or just miso and an order of sticky rice.“

“I really enjoyed dining at Taisho Sushi! The yellowtail serrano was perfectly balanced with just the right spice, and the salmon dry miso was incredibly flavorful and fresh. The presentation and service were both excellent — definitely one of my favorite sushi spots in town. Highly recommend!“

“Great service and food💗 There are many alcohol menus and food items that other restaurants do not have, and the restaurant is not too big, so you can enjoy a relaxing, calm and stylish time. There is plenty of space for parking, and I would definitely go back‼︎“

“Sooo good!! I tried their yellowtail garlic ponzu rolls I think, something yellowtail the server recommended me and omg it was sooo good!
Also I had their curry it was so good.
The service was so nice they were so kind and the ambience was so nice the open windows were so nice it was a nice chill experience!“

“Salmon Ikura dish is amazing! So much flavor!“

“We had a longer wait, but it was well worth it! My sister, her kids, my boyfriend, and I all had great food after a long day at Universal Studioes. The food was authentic and the service was so friendly 🥰 my sister and I are always looking for a good Japanese spot as we get homesick for the food!“

“Amazing fresh old school sushi ❤️❤️❤️❤️. The owner is so friendly and knowledgeable and it’s now my happy place!“

“Those of you who know me aren’t surprised I ended up here. This place looks sketchy and the ac isn’t enough to cool the covered patio.
I have passed by this place many times and yes I was a little hot while I ate but honestly the food was great!
I had chicken and steak skewers over rice with a small green salad.
The skewers were tender and very flavorful. The rice was perfectly steamed and the salad was lightly dressed like Cole slaw.
This is not some place you want to go if you're not into hole in the wall spots. This place is perfectly suited for people like me who value flavor over frills.“

“In my book, this is the best Teriyaki chicken in the valley, maybe even Los Angeles. I have done dine in and take out, both situations yielding the same great food. The meals have great portions. But the teriyaki chicken and rice is the best. The chicken is never dry and always grilled with their terrific teriyaki sauce. It never tastes like it's been sitting on the grill for an hour, it's always fresh. Absolutely worth your time if you are a lover of good teriyaki.“

“Andreas Super helpful and knowledgeable about all the foods on the menu the chef always hook it up fresh. Oh my God, cucumber salad stuff. It’s unbelievable delicious number of sauces. You can choose from really affordable and large portions. You have to try this place multiple different choices. Trust me you will not be disappointed.“

“Stopped here a couple of times, and both times it was very good! On this occasion we got the eel bento and the chicken katsu curry. Both dishes came with very generous portions! The prices are amazing! I would definitely recommend coming by for a bite.“

“The sushi was on point. I had a caterpillar roll. The ingredients were fresh and I was full from the size of the roll! Also, it was quite a deal too as I had dinner on a Wednesday. Currently, Monday through Friday the restaurant is offering 20% off.“

“I love eating here! The service is always so awesome. I love that it's tucked away, and every time I've brought someone to eat here they don't expect that the restaurant is here. As for the food, it's DELICIOUS! My son is picky, and even he couldn't deny how good the food is. The ramen is amazing, it's so good and the portions are hearty. I usually end up getting a ramen combo with a chashu bowl. Now, I get to eat there AND have delicious leftovers. My family have tried other ramen places around and we keep coming back to Futaba because it's number one in our eyes. The flavor is always on point. Definitely recommend.“

“Yummmmmmy!!!! Great sushi and friendly staff. It’s a little pricey but great quality so it’s worth it =}“

“We moved a street over and were excited to try. The $80 omakase left us full and content! The perfect amount of food. The black cod, seared salmon, and otoro were huge highlights. As a ginger lover, I was thrilled with how good this was and ate my entire pile mostly plain with just with their high quality soy sauce. We couldn't help eyeballing the huge 12 piece rolls that were going out past us and can't wait to try next time.“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“Highly recommended place, clean, nice decor, excellent customer service, short wait times, delicious food, well presented and at a good price, 5/5 if you are hesitating to go to this restaurant, give it a chance, I'm sure you'll come back just like me.“

“Masa-san serves chef's choice, and the food is fresh and delicious. Eating here is an extremely delightful experience. The sweet shrimp with eggs is one of my favorites. Always finish your meal with at least 1 (maybe 2 or ...) of his blue crab rolls. The crab is carefully hand-pulled, the rice is warm, and the seaweed is crisp. You won't find that combination of quality and easy dining experience anywhere else in the Valley. Please try it!“

“This chain is amazing! Food is always super fresh and serving is good size there are a lot of options especially great for lunch those who want to eat light or be full. If you are vegan or pescatarian this place is great for you too We have options for everybody.“

“I found out about hungry ninja on door dash a few months ago and have been hooked ever since. Portions are great, food is made with love and tastes amazing, and most of all the customer service is great. If you are in the chatsworth area and looking for good teriyaki this is the place I would go to!“

“Brothers Sushi is a must. Make a reservation and you can’t go wrong with anything you order.“

“The food is AMAZING. I do feel a bit cheated out of the overall experience. The joint is inside the supermarket and they don’t have a seating area. Something the previous reviews neglected to mention. For a $100+ order and two have to take it to go, it’s definitely not what I expected. We did a picnic nearby to adjust. The food is a culinary trip. I highly recommend them. It is by far one of the best sushi joints in the San Fernando Valley.“

“My very first time at Jinya Ramen Bar in Studio City and everything was beyond fantastic, from the service from our waitresses Juliana and Sophie, and the food. I can’t say anything bad about this place and my experience.
I’m definitely coming back“

“A great place to enjoy fresh sushi when visiting Canoga Park!
The building is unique with a warm and cozy vibe.
The food is consistently fresh, great portions and delicious.
The service is always great, friendly and always available

The koi pond at the entrance is awesome“

“From the moment I settled in the booth, a caressing breeze welcomed me. The large garage door like opening of a window added to the beautifully appointed space. There were many highlights of the evening, including the delicious spicy albacore role , the more rare sashimi sea bass, and the decadent dessert banana ice cream caramel sandwich with crunchy filo dough. Our waitresses Monique was hands down the highlight of the evening- what a pleasure to be served by a competent, passionate, and beautiful human. A memorable evening.“

“Who thought that classic American fare and Japanese cuisine could mesh so well??!!“

“One of the best sushi places you could find! Every roll is beautifully made, the fish is incredibly fresh, and the flavors are perfectly balanced. The presentation is always on point, and the staff are super friendly and attentive. You can tell they care about quality and customer experience. Highly recommend trying their chef’s special rolls — absolutely worth it!“

“I had an amazing experience at Beto’s Tepanyaki! The service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and fast. The chefs are truly skilled.

I ordered the New York Steak and Chicken Bowl, cooked medium-rare, and it was absolutely delicious! The steak was tender and juicy, while the chicken was flavorful and perfectly grilled. The portion size was generous, and every bite was packed with amazing flavor.

If you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and a fun dining experience, Beto’s Tepanyaki is the place to go. Highly recommend!“

“The menu is unique and named creatively, which I found charming. The food was well-made, and made in ample time. The service was amazing and the cashier walked me through the process, being very nice the whole time. The roll I ordered and the tea were delicious, and I'd love to come by again soon.“

“Traditional Japanese izekaya. Daily specials. A definite must try.“

“One of the very best Japanese restaurants in the city. Reasonable prices and home style Japanese food. Worth the wait. Come early.“

“Tatsuki never disappoints! It is my all time favorite sushi bar...Always fresh and delicious. Love Hector, Chris and Manuel!“

“Honestly, I would give more stars if I could. The ambiance and restaurant itself was very elegant but cozy. Every dish we tried was incredible, we started with appetizers the crispy rice with tuna was cooked to perfection as well as the cucumber and avocado salad, which was delicious and flavorful.
Some of my FAVORITES included the yellowtail and jalepenos which i would highlyyy recommend. The Jessica Roll was absolutely to die for and melted in your mouth. We had a few other rolls including the lemon roll and fantasy roll while also grabbing the salmon and yellowtail belly.
Everything was super fresh and flavorful. I would highly recommend stopping by here whether it be with friends to catch up or your significant other for a date.“

“Walked into the mall wanting to eat. Suki Hana caught my eye and I was helped by an employee named Shantell. She gave me recommendations on what to get and was absolutely helpful. The food was great, and their work area was clean. Shantell helped me out a lot and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the great service & food!“

“Little Izaka-ya is my go-to neighborhood sushi spot, and it never disappoints! The servers always remember me, which adds such a nice, welcoming touch to every visit. It feels like a place I can count on for a great time and delicious food every single time. The sushi rolls are consistently fresh and full of flavor, but my personal favorite is the white fish roll—YUM! It’s always a treat. I also love how easy it is to make a reservation, making dining here super convenient. Whether it’s for a casual night out or a special dinner, Little Izaka-ya always delivers. Highly recommend!“

“I was really indecisive about what I wanted to eat tonight. This is my first time trying this place and let me tell you, it’s the best hibachi I’ve had tbh. My regular spot is usually in Hollywood but definitely switching to this place. Everything cooked well and seasoned just right.“

“Wow! If you like great sushi, great service, and great ambiance - you have to check out Yume in Calabasas! This is my third time coming back and hands down it’s the best sushi my friends and I have had. I haven’t been to the Studio City location yet, but from what I hear…same same. I wish I took some pictures! The presentation is awesome. 😊🍣😋“
