50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Montclair

“Big bowl of deliciousness! Authentic ramen we've been searching for in the I.E. We had the Naruto chashu ramen with medium spice and everything about it was perfect.
If you're a Naruto fan, this is your spot. Anime themed decor.“

“Excellent foods and excellent service every time“

“Omigod I told them I would write a review if I went home and liked what I ordered. Hands down 10s across the board! Everything was delicious! They even gave me a free onion soup! I will be back all the time I’m obsessed with hibachi and yours my friends was delicious! 🙌🏽🫶🏽“

“Very clean, good service and delicious!!“

“This place was amazing. They have an extensive menu, with unique rolls. The service is great and the atmosphere is perfect, with many TVs. I live in Rancho and have been to many sushi restaurants. None of them are as good as this place!!“

“Came in on a Friday night, found them through some positive google reviews and did not disappoint. The bowls and portion sizes are very generous for what you pay and most importantly food is fresh/delicious. The owners and staff are very friendly, very much looking forward to coming back weekly.

“We got the A5 Wagyu skewers and the Sushi platter. Sushi is fresh, beef is good. I would say that the atmosphere is more new generation pop themed rather than traditional Japanese. The service was great! Very attentive! The food tasted good but not exceptional. The rice was a bit pasty and the beef not as flavorful for an expensive dish. Karrage was great!“

“It was so good worth it y’all!“

“We had an amazing experience at Tenmaya Japanese Restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious , fresh sashimi, perfectly cooked tempura, and flavorful rolls. The presentation was beautiful and everything tasted authentic. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and relaxing. Definitely one of the best Japanese restaurants in the area. Highly recommend for both family dinners and special occasions! 🍣✨“

“Five stars. I came for sushi and left questioning every bad sushi decision I’ve ever made.

The fish was so fresh it felt disrespectful to dip it in soy sauce. The rice was perfectly balanced, not mushy, not dry, just sitting there quietly doing its job like a professional. Every roll showed up looking like it had a résumé.

Service was fast, friendly, and somehow always there exactly when I needed more water or made eye contact with the menu again. No hovering. No disappearing act. Just solid execution.

Portions were generous without being sloppy, prices felt fair, and nothing tasted like it came from a freezer or a shortcut. Even the wasabi had personality.

If you’re debating where to get sushi, stop debating. Go here. Future you will be annoyed you didn’t go sooner.“

“Very friendly service. This place gets really busy on a Friday and Saturday evening and the staff handles it wonderfully. Food is also very good, one of a few places that serve kizami wasabi. Our favorites include the beef udon, energy roll and the sashimi platter.

Drink specials always on point. Plenty of parking.“

“Ordered the chicken and shrimp teriyaki bowl with a crunch roll on the side. Food was delicious, fresh and reasonably priced. Additionally, the owner was nice and the restaurant is super clean. Definitely worth a try. I wish I lived closer to visit more often. Thank you!“

“Third time there tonight. Always delicious!“

“love this restaurant, even I am not a fan for raw food. I ordered beef and chicken teriyaki. It is good and delicious, and the service was excellent. Really want to recommend to friends.“

“The service and food was super good. One of the best Ayce sushi spots I’ve had. I would call myself a sushi connoisseur lol and I give it a 10/10. Fish quality was there and they even gave complimentary ice cream at the end. I recommend getting the premium menu if you truly enjoy sushi, it is worth the extra 10 dollars. The oyster is a must try!!“

“Not many places in LA offer hard to get fish from Japan. I was impressed with their unique fresh fish and the quality of sushi. I will definitely return for another great experience. I sat at the sushi bar and had great service from the chef.“

“I order takeout from here all the time because the food is very very very good. The service is always very excellent My only concern is where it's located. I usually get delivery because I don't like the location of where this is. If it wasn't located where it is I would definitely be going there quite often. But if you know anything about this location you know what I'm talking about. But I do keep them busy with delivery I'll tell you what.“

“Hidden gem! This Japanese restaurant is amazing.
You order at the register with great staff, they have pictures of the food so you know what you’re getting yourself into.
We ordered the veggie gyozas that were delicious, cream shrimp udon noodles that were amazing, and two sushi rolls that were surprisingly amazing.
The ambience is great and their music selection is top tier.
Definitely recommend the curry and sushi.“

“Fresh, fast, and served with a smile. And for $0.02, you even get advice! Really great value.“

“Read my post it's the best around“

“Wow this place surprised me so much, I went on my birthday it was a Thursday mid day and it was lonely. Not sure if that’s good or not but as we walked in, we were greeted and welcomed to a nice beautiful atmosphere.

Open concept, nice design. We were serviced beautifully everything was clean and squeaky clean floors.

Menu was okay to read, but we were able to order a few yummy rolls.
Ocean roll
Super salmon roll
California roll
Vegas roll

Wow the my favorite was the Vegas roll the combo with the crispy outer layer and the fresh fish on top with avocado with sauce oof it was delicious a must order option!
Everything was delicious and what made the difference was freshness.

I would definitely come here again or order out, but it seems a lot of people order out. Dining in was a great experience and more need to come and experience everything as well at least when they can.

Parking was a bit difficult, one level and easy wheelchair access.

You can get vegetarian options here or ask what they have :)

Overall my experience was pretty great and those who love sushi definitely need to try this place out.“

“Located right next to Cal Poly college, Jinza Teriyaki is a great spot to eat after classes, my all time favorite is the Loco Moco bowl. The people are incredibly nice and especially early the place is a nice quite area to eat in. My only wish is that they would open earlier as someone who's out n about by 7am, but I understand not wanting to open at the crack of dawn.“

“Been craving teriyaki bowls lately. Decided to stop in and try this place out. The portion was good. Tastes was good. Price was competitive. Place is decent. Would recommend if you crave teriyaki chicken and are in the area. They have plenty of options to choose from.“

“Everything their soup is delicious“

“my 1st time. food was off the hook good. I will be back again“

“Marugame Udon in Chino Hills is such a comforting spot; especially on a cold, rainy day. Their udon soups are absolutely delicious, warm, and full of flavor. You can really taste the freshness in every bowl.

As a first-time visitor though, I will say the ordering process was a little confusing. A clearer sign or simple explanation for newcomers would go a long way. The layout of the tables also feels a bit uninviting and could definitely be improved to make the dining experience more comfortable.

With that said, the staff truly made up for it. Everyone was warm, kind, and welcoming, which I genuinely appreciated. Overall, great food and great people; just a little room for improvement in the flow and layout. I’ll still be back for that amazing udon! 🍜“

“Came here for my post graduation dinner they were friendly and attentive though the front desk was a bit blunt when we were asking about if our table would be ready soon after waiting some time for our reservation. The food is good nothing out of the ordinary, I got the tonkotsu ramen it wasn't bad.“

“This was my first time here. It was our company Christmas luncheon. Really great time. the food prepared in from of you was excellent and quite the show. Both the service and food was exceptional.“

“So good and service is very nice 👍🏻👍🏻“

“This was the best teppanyaki spot in the inland empire. I was blown away by the food and show. Alex was our chef and he was amazing. There was a special sirracha he made for us that was the best I have ever had. The resturant is very cute inside and my family had a blast.“

“The take-out box was convenient, if not finished in restaurant. The beef and chicken were great with the provided salad dressing, rather than the teriyaki sauce. It was placed as side as suggested by the host, especially that I was a diabetic. The water was refilled as needed, which was appreciated. I also asked for a second bowl of miso, which I enjoyed. Overall, it was great to have a meal at the Bento Box in Chino.“

“The staff here is all super friendly, the one time they gave me a wrong order the sushi chef sent over a free appetizer for my table and then my food was out quickly after. Regardless the staff is great, love the atmosphere, good music, it's a smaller restaurant yes but they have great quality in each dish and even when it's super busy you don't wait long for your order.“

“Always fresh, consistently delicious, and served with a smile! The team at Amazing Poke is incredibly friendly, accommodating, and genuinely cares about your experience. Whether you’re customizing your bowl or trying one of their signature creations, everything is high quality and reasonably priced. One of my go-to spots in Chino—highly recommend! Their location is always clean too.“

“Most fresh and flavorful sushi I've had in my life! Their cooked dishes are very good too. I like the broiled cod and baked muscle. I have been coming here for almost 30 years. If you're seeking a top notch, authentic, and Japanese-owned restaurant, look no further.“

“Great experience!! Love the food!!“

“This is a really delicious place to eat on campus. I am really looking forward to the opening. The poke here is really good. I like the bowl option because I can pick one fish and as many toppings as I want. The toppings are unlimited. The boba is good too. I like the milk tea with boba and matcha option.Features: Since this is a college campus, it is required to wear a mask at all times except when eating. “

“Poke was pretty good, could've used more sauce though. But the portions are really good compared to what we get where we live and the prices are even better. The medium is even bigger than the large we usually order in Elk Groven and $5 cheaper. We ordered on the kiosk and didnt realize we could just walk up to the counter and order there which would have been better for us since it was our first time there.“

“This place was full when we came but one staff immediately cleaned a table for us... nice! Food was superb & so with the service. I love their Orange Sushi... it's was one of the best sushi I ever had! Love this place. We're sure to come back.“

“Great food as always. Fresh fish.“

“Nice place, pretty busy by locals. The food was good but not great, I had the beef bowl. The rice and meat were a little dry in texture. But the flavors were good! Maybe I went during the lunch rush.. they have lots of options so I’ll for sure be trying other items.“

“Today will be my third time I will be visiting here with friends and family
This place is b00mb, no discrimination, food so good , above all they are all nice and polite to their customers. I highly recommend this restaurant for your friends and family👌“

“I called to complain about an online order I made and found out the mistake was actually mine. I missed something on the order. They offered to fix it for free! I paid for the extra item, since it WAS my mistake, but I really appreciate how kind the manager and employees were“

“Allen is the man. This place is like eating at home but like they make sushi and stuff. Food speaks for itself and is legit. Best sushi place for miles. Small intimate place easily becomes your go to spot to eat. Very friendly and just like a barbershop open to conversations that end up taking over the place with laughs. Get to know the chefs and they'll become family and take care of you like no other. If I could give more stars I would. I never really write reviews but this place deserves recognition from staff alone. Love the food too. Them rolls man ? . Let's go! God bless.“

“We always have a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The service is truly excellent, friendly, attentive, and thoughtful from start to finish. What stood out the most was how kind they were with our baby, Mila. Highly recommended for families!“

“Delicious and affordable food 👍🏻And the staff is very friendly.“

“Yum yum yum yum 😋 🤤 …I am sure going to miss this place“

“The food my wife and I ordered was very tasty, fresh, and well prepared. Our servers were also very attentive and polite from beginning to end. The ambiance, seating, and overall experience are enjoyable here. We'll be coming back to this local sushi spot again in the near future.“

“This place is a treasure. Even the avocado roll was amazing.

A spider roll was the roll that made me become a sushi enthusiast, and for years I've searched to find an equal to that sublime roll. This did it, flavors and textures that were a perfect balance in every bite.

“Everything is perfect. Best sushi I have had in any area of San Bernardino, LA, or Riverside county. Cooks and owner all appear to be Japanese, so it is almost certainly the real deal. They are all so Friendly. It is not a dine in restaurant. They do have a couple chair and tables but it is rather small. It is stricly take-out mostly. Small but effective menu. All the food. Absolutely all is a A+ in my book.“
