16 Best Japanese Restaurants near Vallejo

“I had Salmon over rice Togo. When I pick up my food, I opened it but I didn’t see any vegetables in that. I asked him and he said that I should order the meal if I would like to get small salad too. (I ordered wrong tho) but he so nice:) he gave me the vegetable salad for free of charge. I will definitely come back. I like to support local and good people, plus their food is so yummy and fresh too.“

“The food is great!!! Crew is awesome!!! Dine by the sea!!! Highly recommended!!!“

“Customer friendly & quick service. Food is great.😋“

“There was an important item left out of my order last night. But when I went back today, the Asst Manager Brandon went over the top. He really hooked me up. Their food is good, but their service and attitude is the best!“

“Absolutely,I recommend your restaurant, good good and friendly staff.“

“This place is pricey but good. The only problem I have was they forgot to give me my Vanilla Ice cream and Snapple drink I ordered two different Sushi Rolls with Vanilla Ice Cream and Snapple drink on Uber Eats and you guys forgot to put my Ice Cream and Snapple drink together with my order. Shameful I just wasted half my money to order those“

“Amazing!“

“Fantastic! Can’t wait to go back!“

“We came here for lunch right when they opened at 11 AM. There were no guests yet, so we were seated and served right away. The place was cozy, comfortable, and clean — even the bathroom was well maintained. They served water first, which was a nice touch.

We ordered the sake nigiri and were surprised by how big the salmon pieces were — definitely worth trying! The tempura appetizer was also great — light, not just all breading — and came with their own special sauce.

The katsu curry came with a generous serving of rice. It was good, though I found the katsu sauce a little bland for my taste. Still, the portion size was satisfying. It also came with miso soup and a salad on the side — both were delicious, especially the salad dressing!

My husband ordered ramen, and the meat was so tender and flavorful that I might try it next time. :)“

“Delicious, friendly, and peaceful since the first time we went here in the 90s, had 2 bday dinners, and had lunch with my childhood friend from Asia. But recently, the sushi, it's like I was playing Barbie meals with my date but at adult price. No other places I've been, served good sushi smaller than average.“

“😍😍😍😍 sushi burrito so good must try !“

“As great as it gets local sushi at affordable prices. Good clean taste with nice touches of flavor that excite the palette. I got a crazy monkey roll and some chefs nigiri that was perfect for my refined taste. I ended the night with halibut nigiri (shown here) and walked out happy“

“This sushi place is the best one I’ve been to. The friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere is amazing! They never rush me and even accommodate me if I’m running late for another event. Also the place is very clean, the lighting is inviting and the food is very delicious. I’ll be back next week, as they know😊🍣“

“Definitely a solid sushi place if you like the American style rolls, which obviously most people in America do :) I didn't get any of the Nigiri or Sashimi so I don't know how fresh their fish was, and it could have been absolutely amazing just I'm sorry I can't report back on that because I wasn't in the mood for raw and got a bunch of low brow American imitation crab cream cheese deep-fried tempura, and they were absolutely delicious, so I don't know how good their actual sushi is, but I can tell you that they're like comfort food deep fried imitation crab stuffed with tons of cream cheese with tempura batter rolls are epic, both rolls I got were absolutely delicious ;) 👍🏻🤤. So yeah I'm sorry I can't give a better critique, like if you ever just looking for some comfort sushi, and you want some deep fried Philadelphia cream cheese imitation crab stuffed Goodness then this is your place because it was Excellent, and I'm sorry I don't mean to say that's all they have, because I very literally didn't have a single piece of nigiri or sashimi, so they're more traditional stuff might also have been Super fresh and awesome, I just didn't order it so I couldn't tell you. Their large 22-oz Kirin ichiban beers are Cold and fresh and delicious though ;) and their tempura batter is legitimately very good and very light and flaky and crispy and not heavy and greasy, it actually was quite delicious. So don't knock the deep fried Japanese-American fusion Goodness that was delivered quickly and hot directly from the kitchen by a very friendly and prompt attentive and respectful front house staff that was speaking Mandarin to each other 👍🏻❤️.
So anyways that's my semi disjointed but very appreciative review of this place, it definitely was very relaxing and clean and had a comfy kind of family style to it, and me and my buddy did see a few families eating there with children that were enjoying themselves, and they did have a really cool Koi pond and a nice welcoming bar with an Izakaya style theme, so basically this place has it all. I just wish I had tried some of their raw fish to let you know how it is, but unfortunately I only got a bunch of delicious shrimp tempura mn2 different Americanized rolls with a bunch of imitation crab and cream cheese in them that were absolutely delicious, so if that's what you're in the mood for definitely this place was 100% solid. And who knows their fresh fish might actually be extremely good as well, I just unfortunately didn't order any so I couldn't tell you.
But anyways it was a very enjoyable experience, and they gave me exactly what I asked for, and it was very good, and their beer was cold and fresh and the serving staff was very quick to come when called and very friendly and attentive, and my only complaint, is that I was too stupid to not try out their fresh fish ;)“

“Located where the old outback used to be, this is great for someone like myself who lives in the area and wants decent sushi. The rolls aren't huge but I like that so I can order/try a variety of rolls. Lunch is $25 and dinner is $40 if I'm not mistaken. The staff is so nice and attentive. Everyone helps out and the food comes very fast. Good quality sushi with fried options and good appetizers. The only thing I would skip next time is the ice cream. Other than that I will be back!“

“I come twice a month. This place is my go to for Japanese comfort food. I love the gyudon just the way they prepped it. Saucy, sweet and savory just like I remember from childhood in Asia. Sushi and sashimi are fresh (enough). Bento is reasonably priced. Atmosphere is good. Not pretentious like some of the Japanese restaurants in this area. They actually play Japanese tunes.“
