Japanese Restaurants near Sylmar

“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!“

“Absolutely amazing sushi! The quality of the fish is always fresh, and the presentation is top-notch. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Whether you're a sushi lover or just trying it for the first time, this place never disappoints. Highly recommended!“

“Absolutely love this place! My boyfriend and I live in the area and we love being able to walk to places in our neighborhood. This is definitely a new favorite spot! I rarely write reviews but I had to share my great experience to support this business. The food is fresh and delicious and the staff is very kind.
We ordered the Rainbow and the Spicy Yellowtail rolls for pick up orders through their online website, had a lovely sunset walk during Golden Hour to and from there, and the service was timely and efficient. When we got back home the food was packaged and presented beautifully and it kept well. We thoroughly enjoyed this whole experience and will be happy to order again soon! We look forward to dining in person there as well. Definitely find out for yourself and enjoy this awesome little gem!
Thank you to the entire staff for bringing this spot into the NoHo Arts District!“

“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‼︎“

“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.“

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

“Just had dinner at this restaurant with my two sons. We had Tonkotsu Black, Tonkotsu Shoyu and Teriyaki Chicken Bento. Service was prompt, prices were good and the food was delicious. I didn't know we had good quality Ramen in Santa Clarita. We'll be back for sure.“

“Absolutely THE BEST RAMEN!!!! I LOVE THE SPICY TONKASU. YUMMY. I have tried so many ramen places and this is the only one that satisfies. The staff is amazing, too. They even remember what every member of my family usually orders. Personalized, kind and attentive service.“

“Huge portions and very tasty. Everything is fresh and made to order. Havent been here in a while but the new owner is awesome and super friendly so ive come back quite a few times. Guarantee you a size large bowl will feed AT LEAST 2 people.“

“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.“

“I recently visited the PokiTomik in my neighborhood, and I couldn’t be more impressed! The experience was delightful from start to finish. The staff greeted me with warm smiles and were incredibly helpful in guiding me through their menu options.

I decided to try the poki tacos, and they were absolutely amazing! The combination of fresh ingredients and flavorful sauces made each bite a delicious experience. The tacos were perfectly crafted, showcasing the vibrant and fresh flavors that this restaurant is known for.

The atmosphere was welcoming and clean, making it an ideal spot for a quick lunch or relaxed dinner. It's wonderful to have such a high-quality, healthy dining option so close to home. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their menu!“

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

“My kids love ramen so we came by to check it out. They had so much fun picking thier packet from the wall, cooking it and adding the toppings. The staff was so friendly and accommodating!

The kids picked a mild ramen and it was perfectly spicy. We got a couple sushi rolls that were also delicious. We will definitely be back!“

“Great food , great prices and great people. This place is my go to sushi spot throughout the whole valley, nothing beats the flavor and the portions. The staff is also very kind hearted and welcoming as well as insightful in case you don't really know what you're looking for. Sometimes there can be a wait on food but only because they're incredibly popular and I'd even say a valley classic at this point. Make sure to try the baked shrimp crunch roll, baked salmon roll or the udon noodles!“

“I had the chicken katsu for lunch and the portion size was so large I couldn’t finish it in one sitting but it was one of the best restaurants I’ve tried since being out here. I had to take my husband here for dinner and he got the chicken teriyaki, shrimp and steak and finished his entire plate. This place definitely deserves to be on your review board.“

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

“I usually come here for lunch, but I must say that my experience has been nothing but stellar every time visited. Food comes out quick, ramen is cooked perfectly, and the establishment is spotless. I've been to Kopan Ramen in different locations, but I would rate this place the highest. I'm not sure if this place can handle large parties, but groups of 1-4 are perfect.“

“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.“

“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!“

“I got take out but wish I dined in! Walking into the restaurant felt authentic and smelled like your classic old school sushi spot that brings back that nostalgia feeling from back in the day. The sushi was incredibly fresh and melted in my mouth. I got a spicy salmon roll and spicy yellowtail and they actually had a small kick compared to other restaurants. The miso soup also tasted super fresh. Wish I took pictures but will definitely dine here again!“

“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!“

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

“Excelente...muy buena atención y la comida muy buena, lo recomiendo...“

“Visited here with my wife to have a nice evening. The menu was good, especially the soups; the broth was so tasty, the flavors were perfect. The restaurant owner needs to upgrade the furniture and walls and repair the ceiling; they will have more visitors for sure.
Overall, a good place to eat delicious soups and sushi.
Thanks for the warm welcome and good service!“

“This is place is fantastic! It is such a unique experience, the food is delicious, fresh and so satisfying. We ate our food so quick that i didn't get a chance to take pictures of everything else we ordered.My husband and I have been coming here since late 2000's and so happy to support his business for many more years ❤️“

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

“I always stop here on roadtrips and it’s a solid place for affordable, healthy food. The chicken salad is my go-to and it’s always fresh with plenty of chicken. The facilities are also very clean and the staff is friendly - highly recommend!“

“The food is so yummy. We ordered the chicken and steak with veggies and rice plate and the tofu with veggies and rice bowl. Similar to Wa$a with better quality meats and much better customer service.

Kid-friendliness: My kid loves it.“

“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!“

“Okay?get ready! This is a killer 5-star Hibachi restaurant! Hibachi is just ? ???The rice is not overcooked and fried perfectly, the steak is always from good pieces of meat without sinews,portions are huge? this is the most tasty and delicious Hibachi I have ever been eating! Thank you guys! Keep it up! THAT WAS 10TH TIME ORDER AND REPEATEDLY GREAT ? SO THEY ARE PRO“

“The best yellow tail Nelly sushi ever“

“The food and service was excellent.“

“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.“

“Excellent food 🥘! Always hot and fresh. A treat every time.“

“I was pleasantly supprised by this place. I came in here when i was passing through the area and was feeling a little hungry. While there appeared to be other food options in the area, I decided to give this place a try.I ordered their beef dish with noodles. It was a little pricey and they did charge me a fee for using my card. But when the food finally came, it was really good. Very flavorful and quite a big portion. The meat wasn't all gnarly either, which is always a concern when ordering beef.One thing to keep in mind is that their menu in not that big.They did say that they've been open for about 4 months or so. I hope that this place makes it. There were not a lot of customers in here when I visited. They do seem to be more of a carryout type place though. And I also visited in the morning when it first opened.Overall, this place does have a few minor flaws, but the food is good quality and the portions are pretty large.“

“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“

“Staff is so nice and always ready to help.“

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

“This is a great place to get a boba tea and a quick bite to eat. I'll definitely be back to check out more! Nice friendly staff. Check it out!“

“This place doesn’t shout for attention, but the tonkotsu ramen is rich, creamy, and deeply comforting. Noodles had the right bounce, and the broth was clearly simmered for hours. The staff are quick without rushing you. I ended up slurping every last drop. A neighborhood gem for sure“

“fast and excellent service 👌“

“We’ve been coming to this sushi spot regularly, and it’s safe to say it’s become one of our favorites. It’s a low-key place with a relaxed atmosphere, but don’t let the casual vibe fool you — the food is consistently fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. The rolls are creative without being over-the-top, and the classic options are always done right. The fish is high quality, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve.

One of the best parts is the pricing. Compared to some of the trendier sushi restaurants in town, this place offers incredible value. You get generous portions and great flavor without the inflated price tag. Whether we’re grabbing a quick dinner during the week or bringing friends on the weekend, it always hits the spot.

The staff is friendly, service is quick, and the ambiance makes it easy to relax and enjoy your meal. The only real downside is the parking — it can be a bit tight or hard to find during busy times. But honestly, the food is good enough that we don’t mind the minor inconvenience.

Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for quality sushi without the fuss.“

“The food here was so good that we ate it before I could take any photos! The sushi chefs totally rocked! The atmosphere was dark and warm. It felt good. It felt like I was in a more upscale restaurant then just one and a strip mall in Sunland California. This place is nice yeah you can show up in your humblest attire and eat some of the best sushi you've ever had. Definitely worth a try. You'll likely be back again.“

“I ordered chicken teriyaki bowls with no veggies to go. They have a bunch of sauces you can choose from. I tried the orange, bulgogi, and the teriyaki sauces. I liked the bulgogi the most and my son liked the teriyaki sauce the most. The customer service was great, they were very patient with me when I had to change my order due to someone else. I think next time I will add veggies and try some more sauces and meats. The place looked clean and the staff was nice. I will definitely come again and I'm glad it's near my house“

“I have been to just about every teriyaki chicken bowl place from here to Portland and this is by far the best. If you've ever seen the anime food wars every bite is like the scenes when one of the judges takes a bite of the dish and they nut so hard there clothes explode off of them. Also they price is insane for how good it is. I love this place and make sure to get it as much as possible whenever I'm in the la area“

“Delivery. Came for a customer's order. Asked about the order's readiness and wanted to use the restroom, but the employee rudely and mockingly forbade me to use the restroom. Judging by this attitude towards me, it is unknown what would have happened to my food if I had ordered for myself in this restaurant.“

“Got Yoshinoya coupon? Enjoy a meal for two! The deal is so worth it. We got combo meals with Tokyo fried chicken, which is so yummy and crunchy, chicken teriyaki, and original beef. And the steamed veggies are a must. It's a complete meal!“
