12 Best Japanese Restaurants near Palm Springs

“Superb quality! Apart from Shabu Shabu in Rancho Mirage, this is the real Japanese sushi restaurant in Palm Springs!“

“Just as good as I remember. I moved away from Palm Springs 12 years ago but was sent out for the day for work. I used to love this place when I lived here and was pleasantly surprised to see its still around. The same cute old couple is running it and the food is just how I remember it. Its simple, fresh, quality food for a good price.“

“great service, friendly staff fun atmosphere“

“The food was delicious! It came out very quickly after we ordered. We got beef and chicken teriyaki plates with the rice and noodles and I would eat it for dinner every night if I could. The teriyaki sauce was the most delicious I’ve tasted with a lovely homemade flavor. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Japanese cuisine!“

“Excellent experience. You have to be open to sitting with other people.“

“Wonderful food at a great price, the drinks were great too. It is a perfect location to have Hibachi in a comfortable atmosphere with very entertaining chefs !“

“Very friendly staff, very delicious food, great sushi and udons.“

“First time trying from this spot and I ordered the plain edamame, gyoza, and spicy scallop roll. The edamame and gyoza were delicious, but the roll could’ve used a tad more flavor. The scallop was delicious and fresh, but it was definitely missing flavor. Besides that, staff was friendly and kind !“

“I have been a repeat customer for many years now. Years ago, the management suffered and was holding back a lot of potential from this restaurant, but it eventually was revamped, and the menu/food took off to become quite an amazing reflection of what you expect in a high end sushi restaurant. I used to enjoy sitting at the bar alone to enjoy the experience of small talk with the sushi chefs while they would occasionally hand me unique one offs that were very authentic to a Japanese cuisine. It kept me coming back as each visit varried from the last. Although covid crippled life for most everyone, they managed to maintain quality and once again fulfill the customer's expectations with excellent service and high-quality selections of fish and many sushi options for even the most picky eaters, I would say. Arigatō!!“

“Friendly staff Fantastic fresh sushi Generous portions And a good price for the quality It will be a regular!!“

“Everything was delicious!! And service great!!!“
