11 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!“

“Always fresh food, absolutely love the chicken and brown rice bowl, house made teriyaki sauce is awesome and the salmon skewers are delish! Generous portions, lovely family-run business and well…get out and support a local PSP spot!“

“great service, friendly staff fun atmosphere“

“Great food and service. Please support this mom & pop restaurant. The owners are so kind and friendly. They're very funny too. They make you feel welcomed and appreciated.
The few complaints I see about mistaken orders can be remedied by enunciating your orders or even pointing on the menu. All of chefs recommendations are tasty. But my boyfriend's and my stomach/heart belong to the terriyaki combo. Definitely get it with half noodles. The beef and chicken combo is top tier. I get it with shrimp too when I'm in the mood. They have beers which my boyfriend likes to get. I haven't tried anything on their drink menu yet but it's because their food is so filling already.
The dining area has cute wood seating arrangements that are comfy. They even got a large fan now so eating in is much better.“

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

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

“Sushi Bella in Desert Hot Springs was such an unexpected find…honestly, some of the best sushi I’ve had in California, and I cannot believe I found it all the way out in the desert.

Everything tasted incredibly fresh. The nigiri was beautifully cut and buttery, the specialty rolls were generous without being overloaded, and the crispy shrimp hand roll was ridiculously satisfying. Even with some of the richer sauces and toppings, the fish still remained the star of the meal.

It’s a small, unassuming spot, which somehow makes the experience even better. You walk in expecting a casual neighborhood sushi restaurant and end up having a meal that easily competes with places I’ve eaten at in Los Angeles.

Fresh fish, great portions, really delicious combinations, and absolutely worth seeking out if you’re anywhere near Desert Hot Springs or Palm Springs. This was one of those wonderful food discoveries that makes traveling so much fun. I will 100% be back.“
