49 Best Japanese Restaurants near Stevenson Ranch

“Good food and service. I enjoyed it.“

“My husband was craving Teppanyaki so we came to Yamato on a Saturday night and it was pretty crowded but since we really just wanted the food and didn’t necessarily want to see the “show” we were seated pretty quickly at a nice spacious booth. The servers were very friendly and attentive. We got the hibachi steak and shrimp and the hibachi steak and scallops which were both delicious. The fried rice was extremely flavorful and the portions are generous. The side of veggies was absolutely amazing. The price point is also very good. Some teppanyaki restaurants are extremely overpriced and Yamato is priced fairly especially for how much food you get. The atmosphere is fun and lively and perfect for celebrating birthdays, graduations, etc.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly atmosphere. High noise level for babies but very fun and lively for littles.“

“1/14/2026 - Ananto Sushi in Stevenson Ranch was open one year ago and is a hidden gem in a neighborhood of Los Angeles.

You will be impressed with its daily Omakase offering with fresh raw dishes, in addition to a great presentation - see the uploaded short videos for your reference.

The owner is also chef, who worked for an upscale Japanese Omacase restaurant in Beverly Hills for many years before opening his own upscale Sushi restaurant one year ago.

There are ample big parking lot in front of the restaurant for free!“

“Wow! I mean like really wow. This place is fantastic! I have had poké in just about every city in Los Angeles and this place is on point with the best! Super fresh, big servings, great price and what a wonderful welcome! The man working there, his name is Danny. He had me laughing the whole time. Felt like being at home with friends! Thank you PF! You are my new spot!“

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

“Hole in the wall teriyaki place. You order at the counter, you pick up your food, you clean up your own table after eating. Easy free parking lot or street parking. They have a lunch special for $11.95 that includes chicken and rice with salad. They also have specials A, B, C and D that are around the $15 to $20 price range. I had the special C that had white rice, a big piece of chicken katsu, two pieces of chicken teriyaki, salad, two small onion rings and two dumplings for about $15.95. Not a bad value. You get a teriyaki sauce and hot sauce on the side. Their teriyaki sauce is very good here! The serving is very generous. I was not about to finish it in one sitting.“

“If you have an avocado allergy, Tokyo Sushi is a tough spot. 46 of their 50 rolls include avocado!

But that's my problem, not theirs. We went for the chef's choice sushi sampler and the bulgogi plate. While the cuts on the sushi weren't super precise, and our entrees came out 10 minutes apart (I feel like that's not uncommon when ordering sushi and hot food), and our tea pot was kind of rusty... It's still probably one of the better sushi spots in Simi Valley. I haven't tried them all, but I've tried quite a few.

The building helps; it's this low-ceiling, square room decked out with wood, surrounding a large sushi bar. And the servers were all very friendly. Clearly there are a lot of regulars here.

Tokyo Sushi is not perfect, but it's very good, and I'll definitely keep it in mind when I want sushi!“

“Izakaya has some of the best quality fish in Simi Valley. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I rarely leave comments. I visited once before and felt the quality of the pork wasn't quite up to par. Today, however, we ordered the Spicy Miso and a Chicken Ramen—and honestly, they were absolutely delicious. From the quality of the meat to the flavor of the broth, this visit certainly didn't disappoint. I'll definitely be back!“

“Just wanted to show some love to this restaurant I just finished watching a YouTube video from DuB family and it made me cry because the owner was so sweet and kind to the guy making videos. I pray that have more people come to their restaurant in the future. I Plan on going in a few months for my vacation week it’s an hour and 30 mins from me but I will make my way to the restaurant.“

“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!“

“The food was well made, came out quicker than expected, food came hot and offered additional sauces because i sat down. The music was nice and added a calm and relaxing environment. I think this is a great place to stop by on your lunch break and was pretty affordable so i also recommend if you’re on a budget. Would def go again“

“Great food, great service, great portions. This is a regular lunch spot for my son. We bought the entire baseball team chicken bowls. They made it so easy to pick up. They were generous and thoughtful to ensure every teammate had what they needed to enjoy their bowl! See you next year!“

“Absolutely delicious! You should definitely stop by if you're in the area. The food was impeccable. I ordered the Tonkotsu Black Garlic Ramen and it was packed with flavor. The pork had a good ratio of meat to fat an awesome taste, the noddle were cooked to perfection for good texture, the broth was exploding with flavor. I also ordered the fresh water eel, yellowtail, and the salmon. All very fresh.
The prices were very affordable too. Give this spot a try.“

“The food and service was excellent.“

“The best yellow tail Nelly sushi ever“

“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!“

“We had both sushi and ramen. The sushi was VERY good, nice cuts and plentiful! The ramen was very tasty, slightly smoky flavor. Will definitely be coming back“

“Great food and great customer service.“

“So good!! Better than Hungry Ninja in every single way and form. Literally eating here at least twice a week.

The meat quality is amazing and it’s literally enough food to have almost 2 meals out of. Best rice plate, bowl spot in SCV!!“

“Great atmosphere - fresh sushi - amazing service . For sure best sushi in SCV! Ranking up with sushi from Hawaii !!“

“Love Ramen, must try Honey Toast for desert“

“This is a hidden gem in the valley. From the outside I did not expect the interior to look so nice and Japanese style.

The sushi omakase was so tasty with different cuts of fish like toro, salmon belly and more. Each one had garnishes like chili oil, yuzu, fresh wasabi, etc. The presentation is stunning. The other items we ordered were also so fresh and tasty like the Toro toast, negitoro mini bowl, and shishito peppers.

Fresh and delicious food here !“

“Always good sushi chef Ian is awesomeness“

“***EXPERIENCE 1*** (Positive) 08/26/25

On this occasion, the man working the counter had a very pleasant demeanor. I ordered the Hamburger Cutlet, and my Mom got the Pork Cutlet. You get a complete meal. Both cutlets came with a side of shredded cabbage, and sides of Miso Soup, Takuan, Rice, and a dipping/topping sauce. The presentation was very nice, the cutlets were placed on grill plates so they don't sit in grease which is great. I tasted some of the Pork Cutlet and it was crunchy, tender, and juicy. My Hamburger Cutlet was the same, and it was pure meat patty, no fillers here. Overall, dining here is a great value. You get restaurant quality food at a reasonable price. And, customer service was excellent. The gentleman working the counter really was extremely nice and was a big factor in our positive dining experience.“

“The food here is great because it taste fresh. The service is great. The owners are pleasant but not overly engaging. They are very prompt to pick up dirty dishes and refill drinks. The Tepan chefs are talented and funny! We go here often and the leftovers are fantastic.“

“Nice and great services, very good options and super fun cooking.“

“First time here and it did not disappoint! Food was delicious, tried several different rolls and all of them were good, the presentation was also great! Friendly staff and the prices were extremely reasonable compared to other place. I will definitely be back“

“Very nice ambient and friendly waiters“

“I can confidently say this is the best sushi experience I’ve had. The fish is exceptionally fresh, and every dish is crafted with precision and care—you can truly taste the quality in every bite.
What really sets this restaurant apart is the environment. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and feels like you’re part of a family the moment you walk in. The staff are incredibly attentive, making sure every detail of your dining experience is perfect without ever feeling overwhelming.
I also really appreciated that the team speaks English, Japanese, and Spanish, which makes the experience even more inclusive and comfortable for a wide range of guests.
Overall, this place delivers on every level—food, service, and ambiance. Easily a 10/10 experience and a well-deserved 5/5 stars. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Walked in and was immediately greeted, the food came out pretty quick and was so delicious and flavorful. I got some extra teriyaki sauce and some chili sauce. The only negative thing I would have to say is that the floors looked pretty dirty, but I did show up about an hour before they close. When I was leaving they acknowledged me and said "have a blessed day" ? I guess it's the little things for me.“

“Amazing everytime The Red Eye is the bomb 🍣🍤“

“Nice place Delicious Fresh food Many menu Friendly“

“Incredible food, great service in a very nice atmosphere. Unassuming, but well crafted with care right in front of you. Very small restaurant with only 7 seats, and reservations are required since he is booked months in advance. Already have my next reservation on the books!“

“Super high quality fish, great food all around. Staff are super friendly and nice. Highly recommend.“

“We been to many different sushi’s in CA & in Mexico & hands down Love sushi is our favorite sushi of all times and if we had to pinpoint it, we would say that is their sauces and flavors. They have a special Spicy Mayo recipe that they should honestly Brand and sale on every store 🤤
They dishes are very flavorful 🤌 and they we’re going downhill after covid but the original owner came back and food tastes even better now! He made some “Off Menu specials for us” so delicious! 🧡“

“This location has a great staff, they work well together and the food tastes hot and fresh. But the negatives are that it's difficult to find parking when the lot is full. It's a very busy location with many eateries and shops. Plus this store is small. They were busy and it felt very cramped. Also there aren't many tables for seniors or the disabled. There are only two available. The rest of the tables are too high and have stools. Not good for someone with bad knees, like myself.“

“Tried this spot for a quick sushi fix—overall it was just okay. It gets the job done if you’re in a hurry, but it’s not somewhere I’d go out of my way for. The sushi felt closer to room temperature than fresh and chilled, which took away from the experience.

That said, the staff was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. Nothing terrible, just not very memorable. Good for convenience, but not a standout sushi spot.“

“Everything....A+++++. Clean and the food for take out was great!“

“I'll be here Friday's or Sundays always coming here and getting me a meal has my experience I will say is better than Panda Express come check it out you'll be satisfied

Dietary restrictions: Come check it out

Kid-friendliness: Of course

Wheelchair accessibility: Of course“

“If you love Korean cuisine, this is the place for you. The food here is incredibly delicious. The service is attentive, and the atmosphere is pleasant and authentic. The prices are slightly above average, but the dishes are definitely worth it. Overall, you won’t regret it 👍“

“😁😁 Great Place to Dine !“

“I love sushi, it's our go-to place. My son loves this place. He even made sure to come here to celebrate his birthday. friendly staff. I have tried quite a few places in the SC valley. So far, this is the only place we have found consistent with the foods.“

“One of my favorite sushi place to eat with my love ones and children. I love the taste of their food and sushi and raw sushi are fabulous. Service is good and friendly. Highly recommend this place.“

“O Sushi is our family’s favorite! Long time sushi lovers, we’ve been to many different restaurants over the years, and consider O’s one of the best. Their tuna tataki tops all! 😍“

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

“We absolutely love Mr. Sushi. After trying other places, we always come back here because the food is just amazing and consistently fresh. You can really taste the quality difference in the fish.

Everything we’ve tried here has been great, the portions are generous, and the service is always welcoming. If you want high-quality sushi in Santa Clarita, this is the place to go!“

“As you enter you are greeted by an open and spacious space. The sushi bar area is nicely decorated and looks well maintained. The entire restaurant is meticulously clean with everything in its place.

Service is attentive and gracious. I ordered the Chicken Karaage Curry and my mom ordered the Salmon Collar. When our food arrived it looked fantastic. The Chicken Karaage looked really crunchy. I ate a piece off the top and it was extremely crunchy, my expectations were high. I dipped a piece of chicken into the curry sauce, but the sauce seemed bland. As I ate it was clear the chicken was incredible, but the curry sauce was broken. There were multiple signs of separation. Some parts were watery and bland, other parts were thicker with stronger flavor. In the picture separation can be seen around the edges of the sauce. Another issue is the rice was room temperature and the grains were starting to tighten and did not mix well with the curry sauce. The disappointing thing is both issues could have easily been fixed before serving. The curry sauce was an easy fix and the rice just had to be warmed. Small things really do make a big difference. I would give the Chicken Karaage alone a 5 out of 5, but with the curry sauce and rice, I would knock that down to a 3.5 out of 5. If everything was freshly made I'm sure it would have been a 5 out of 5.

This is a Sushi Bar and I didn't even try the sushi, so I can't say much about it. However, the prices are very reasonable and definitely worth a try.

Overall the issues were minor. So, this is a place worthy of a shot.“

“My husband and I drove from Bakersfield and stumbled upon this place. Decided to stop and try their AYCE dinner. About $46 per person. We don't eat sushi rolls, only nigiri and everything was excellent. The sushi was cut so evenly and made with care. We will be back!“
