20 Best Japanese Restaurants near Lafayette

“Even though the sushi bar is turned into a daycare (which I would normally rail), this might be the BEST sushi rice I've had. The Ikura was excellent, and all Nigiri sooooo fresh. If they re-did the shop front, they could really turn it up.“

“The staff’s presence is definitely known — they checked on me quite a bit while I was there, which I appreciated. I went during lunch, so pricing was a little cheaper at around $27 out the door with just water. They mentioned dinner is about $10 more and includes a few additional options like sashimi, which isn’t offered at lunch.

They also made it very clear that they charge for leftovers, so definitely order carefully at first. When the food came out, everything looked very nice and presentable. One thing I noticed is that the nigiri portions are HUGE compared to most sushi places I’ve been to. The shrimp tempura and veggie portions were also very generous.

Overall, everything I tried had good flavor, and the portions are definitely worth noting. I’d personally give it about a 6.5/10 overall.

“A really good spacious restaurant that had the best food and service 😇😇 We walked in without any reservations and were seated quickly. The staff is always on its feet giving the best service 😇😇 I had the Spicy Crab and Jalapeno rolls while my husband had Mushroom Chicken with steamed rice and each bite was simply wow ❤❤ Our full compliments to the chefs who were making the food in front of us with so much care and attention 🙏🙏 For dessert I had the Mochi ice cream (mango + chocolate) and my husband had the Tiramisu ice cream cake and once again it was beyond tasty 😇😇 Cannot wait to come back to this 11/10 restaurant and try other items on its extensive menu ❤❤“

“The owner’s fun character The art of the owner’s sushi and quality Sushi rice is the best“

“We hadn't been to Hana in awhile. Everything was fresh and delicious. The yellow tail carpacio with truffle was as excellent as we remembered. The spicy tuna roll, shrimp tempura roll, and every other roll we had were as good as any we've had, for literally half the price as the best boulder sushi spots.
Service was great. Booth atmosphere is nice. We will return soon!“

“Came here for my 21st birthday and it was so much fun!! Staff was so very sweet and friendly!! Amazing selection of games and very reasonable prices on drinks.“

“went for the first time yesterday. got that curry soup which was good (well order again not too sweet like coconut curt can be sometimes) but I asked for my rice on the side since it was to- go. rice was left off :( also, there was a little piece if eggshell in my soup. I was so glad that was at the end bc my feelings would have been hurt if I found it before I was just about finished eating. my daughter had a Cali roll that she said was good. and a kid's bento box. the Ramen was a bit dry IMO but everyone liked it fine. good mango lemonade. I did an Arnold Palmer with mine.“

“Our favorite sushi spot! The ambiance is great, the staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the sushi is consistently fresh and delicious. The appetizers are amazing too. The sauce that comes with the wontons & egg rolls is amazing. Highly recommend!“

“this place is awesome!!!! not only do you get to watch art In motion... everything tastes fabulous!!“

“delicious and wonderful service“

“I love this place! The food is always so good and healthy. The service has always been fantastic and very inviting. Definitely recommend!“

“Juan G was awesome! Checked in on us regularly and made sure we had everything we needed. As far as AYCE goes, Chubby has the highest quality and best selection I've found. The wait was about 40 minutes on a Tuesday night at 7:30 for 2 people, but you can join their wait list before you get there (live and learn).

The restaurant itself is also really cool. Very bright with lots of fun artwork and Japanese inspired styling. Thanks for this find, Instagram 😂“

“Went to Benihana today. Spent close to $200. Service was horrible! Food was okay but not great. Asked for a sushi appetizer which did not come until we had our meal. Server said they didn't have enough help to fix it. When the sushi came we did not have any sauce. We asked one of the helpers who was walking by and she told us we would have to ask our server. We literally had to get up and go ask someone. Ridiculous for the amount of money we paid.“

“Very fresh and tastes great. Appreciate the cucumber water!! Spicy aioli with salmon bowl is 🔥“

“Best sushi in town! Mona is such a sweetheart!😍💓“
