12 Best Japanese Restaurants near Danbury

“I live 1.5 hours away and every time I've come here has been a 10 out of 10. I first discovered it while in the area and now I return every month, its that good! I've gotten the tuna tartare, manhattan roll, and mandooguk soup. All are so fresh and absolutely divine! The soup gelatinized to rock solid in the fridge and thats how you know its full of gelatin and all the good stuff from a homemade bone broth base.

Last time I was here, Jay (owner) even checked in on me via tex to double check I got home safe because a snow storm was rolling in as I left. Very good hospitality and quality. This is what every family owned business should be like, the only thing I'd change is to have it closer to my house!

I also love how they add little samples of extra goodies on the side. I love the marinated radishes, crab salad, cucumber salad, and another very yummy korean sample.“

“Took visiting friends here for dinner and had a good time. We had a couple of vegetarians in the group and they had got options as well. Service was fast and the chef was very nice - he entertained with the performance while also being friendly. The cocktails were good and we left the place stuffed after the meal.“

“I can only speak about the food since I had delivery. I ordered the kimbop, futomaki, veggie bibimbop, beef dumplings, and the combo poke bowls. All of the food was quite good. Very tasty and fresh. I was happy to see the kimbop and futomaki rolls on the menu, items that you don’t frequently see in Danbury.“

“Nice experience friendly staff“

“Wow! This is the second time I’ve eaten at Aki… simply amazing! Great drinks, fabulous appetizers and amazing hibachi and sushi/ sashimi. Our server was excellent and all the staff cater to all their clientele. Wherever you eat your Asian… stop and try this! They even gave me a side of Tobiko which is not on the menu. 5 stars!“

“Always fresh & delicious! The best sushi around“

“This is our go to local sushi place. They have an expansive offering and everything we've gotten has been delicious. We have yet to dine in, but takeout is seamless : order through the website which gives accurate wait times and food is ready to go when you arrive. I'm always on and out on literal seconds. Highly recommend.“

“I've driven past this place for years. Finally stopped in and tried it. Went back the next day... need i say more. Some of the best Chinese food I've had in a while. The pork in the pork fried rice isn't overcooked. Its all good, must try“

“Amai Sushi has the best quality fish and seafood in Brookfield! Amber, the owner is wonderful. She takes time to suggest and explain offerings. I recently had the pleasure of the 10 course Omekase. What a beautiful a scrumptious meal! A birthday treat from a dear friend. Definitely worth the splurge. Buttery sushi, delicious uni (sea urchin roe) and a small piece of highest quality Kobe beef. Great king crab and avocado appetizer and scallop hand roll. Caramel custard dessert. Delicious chilled plum wine. Worth the splurge!“

“Love all the dishes i have tried....Very fresh, cooked to perfection.“

“I’ve been trying to come here for late lunch, and I couldn’t ever make it since they close at 2:30. So, I finally made it here today. The wonton soup was good, with a thin wonton wrap and a good amount of pork filling. And I had my usual Thai curry chicken, which left me satisfied and happy. It’s a husband-and-wife team, and they’re so nice.“

“Fabuloso me super en canto“
