41 Best Japanese Restaurants near Greenwich

“Good sushi and sashimi. Good place“

“Excellent! Everything is always amazing! Great friendly staff. I live down the street and they remember my preferences and are overly accommodating.“

“We had a great omakase experience here last night! The food was incredibly fresh and delicious. You can tell the servers care about each course, and we loved learning some background about what we were eating (especially our male server last night - I didn’t catch his name but he was great!!) We’ll be back!“

“If you’re looking for an honest experience at Abis Restaurant, I suggest getting the experience firsthand. I’ve been there myself, and my experience was completely real — in the best way.

From the moment you walk in, everyone is welcoming, attentive, and kind. You can tell they care about the guests, not just about “doing their job.” Service felt warm, not forced — the kind where you feel comfortable asking questions and taking your time.

The food is where Abis really shines. Every dish we had was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. You can taste the quality and the care in the preparation. The menu offers comfort and creativity at the same time, which isn’t easy to pull off. Nothing felt rushed or careless — it felt like food made by people who take pride in what they serve.

The hibachi experience is a highlight all on its own. The chef didn't just cook- he put on a full show. It was fun, interactive, and entertaining without taking away from the quality of the food. Watching the precision, energy, and skill on the grill while the flames go up adds such a great atmosphere to the meal. And the food coming off the grill? Perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and served hot and fresh.

Of course, Chef Angelo deserves recognition for the passion and leadership that clearly comes from the kitchen. But it’s also important to acknowledge the other hibachi chefs working that same day. Watching them cook for other tables, you could see the same level of talent, focus, and passion in their performances. It’s clear that the quality and showmanship at Abis isn’t just one person — it’s a team of skilled chefs who truly care about their craft.

And Jay, the owner, deserves recognition too. It’s rare to see an owner so present and involved. You can tell he truly values both his customers and his team, which says a lot about the heart behind this place.

Overall, Abi’s isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a place where hospitality, experience, and quality matter. I’ll definitely be coming back and would encourage others to experience it for themselves.“

“Attentive friendly staff and delicious food. Amazing combination will definitely frequent while in Greenwich.“

“Good food, very consistent quality and service“

“The hibachi was amazing! We also had sushi and fried calamari were scrumptious.“

“I chose the sushi deluxe, and I guess it’s similar to an omakase style. They told me it would be 9 pieces with one roll, and honestly, all the selections were great. The fish was very fresh and high quality. I was also really impressed by their service.

My friend and I were deep in conversation and lost track of time, but they never rushed us to leave. I will definitely be coming back and will make a reservation next time (we were lucky to get seats with no wait just by walking in)!“

“If you find yourself wandering through Rye and craving a culinary experience that feels both sophisticated and soul-warming, Oko is the absolute gold standard for modern Japanese fare. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between minimalist chic and neighborhood warmth, making it an ideal spot for a curated dinner that never feels stuffy.

​The craftsmanship behind each piece of scallop nigiri is evident in the way the flavors are balanced, providing a clean yet incredibly rich profile that lingers just long enough on the palate. It is rare to find seafood handled with such reverence, where the natural brininess of the scallop is elevated rather than masked by unnecessary garnishes. Each bite feels like a celebratory nod to traditional techniques reimagined for a contemporary audience, and it is honestly worth the trip to Rye for this dish alone. Oko delivers an unforgettable bite that will have you planning your return before the check even hits the table.“

“Excellent Asian fusion cuisine and great ambiance-at reasonable prices! Great drinks too!“

“BEST tuna dumplings & extremely fresh sushi 🍣 love this little gem 💎“

“The service, attentiveness, and genuine warmth from everyone in the restaurant instantly make you feel at home. There’s a clear level of care behind every detail, and it shows in everything that arrives at the table. Each dish feels thoughtfully prepared, and that kind of effort doesn’t go unnoticed - it just makes you happy to be there.“

“Great food. Bento box is my fiancé & my favorite. Once a week We order.“

“What a great experience. The Sushi was the best we’ve ever had. The freshness and the presentation of every plate was a work of art. The owner, Steve welcomed us as if we were part of the family. Could not have asked for a better experience. The service is top notch.“

“Great food abs great environment!!“

“We are new to the area & wanted to find our "go-to" Chinese food delivery place. We ordered Fuji recently. So delicious! We will be ordering from Fuji from now on. EXCELLENT! Thank you. Delivery was great! :)“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“We have loved Kiku Sushi for many years and were sad to see the ownership change. However Fiona and the new team have raised the bar tremendously over the last year. The menu now includes more Asian selections and the sushi menu is awesome in taste and variety. Definitely try the Specials Rolls and all the other new additions. The staff are friendly, efficient and work as a team. We go weekly now and still haven’t tried half of the new menu. Casual and friendly setting.“

“It’s a tradition in my family!! We always have the best time. It’s local and the people make it special. They were all awesome to my Granddaughter . I’m a customer and a fan.“

“I had an outstanding experience at this BYOB sushi spot! The food was exceptional, boasting fresh ingredients and delightful flavors. The service was top-notch, and Sharon, our server, elevated the dining experience with her attentiveness and friendly demeanor. Bring your favorite drink, and enjoy a fantastic meal with excellent service“

“It is clean, balanced portions of food, I had the combo shrimp & filet mignon steak, very good at reasonable $, I think it's ,the best combo! including miso soup & choice of ice cream,I had Pistachios with marischino cherries. overall great 👍 thumbs up!“

“Excellent Sushi 🍣 so fresh, amazing Thai been going there for over 11 years. You will not be disappointed. It's family-owned. It's more than just Sushi it has Thai,Seafood, Curry and of course freshest Sushi around! xopuma“

“This place has the best general tsaos chicken in all of Stamford and possibly Fairfield County not only is the food top notch quality, but the service is impeccable, and they are so helpful with everything that we asked for to accommodate for and all of the requests we made. I literally order from them all the time now because my son absolutely loves their food as do I (sesame chicken is my fav!) I will be a regular customer for as long as I live in Stamford. You guys rock!!!“

“I'd like to happily say that I've been to this place several times and ordered delivery a few times as well and they've been consistently great. All staff are very friendly, and the delivery is fast and correct. They have great lunch specials with rolls, but I've had dinner there before, too which is just as good. Hibachi-seafood(though I had it served to the regular table)-was delicious and a quality portion, but the sushi is just as good. Their avocado salad is great.“

“Came here to eat in New Year’s Day. Miso soup was so good. We ordered many hand yolks between two people. There was one tool I didn’t like too much I can’t remember the name now but all the rest were fresh and delicious.
They even gave us a cute ice cream dessert“

“Great food and great service.“

“I came from out of town looking for some sushi. This place was great. It was an all you can eat sushi place where instead of having a buffet. They have a couple of guys in the back, actually, making each sushi roll by hand can't rave about this enough. It was a great experience. The staff was really friendly and would recommend to anybody!“

“Tutto molto buono e posto gradevole“

“The food was delicious, service was great too! Really good drinks 🍹“

“If you like sushi and really delicious and we'll prepared food. This is the pla e for you. I usually order some sushi rolls, the fish soup and my favorite is the vegetables in garlic sauce. Absolutely delicious. They also make the best cheese cake around.“

“One of the only places around that is Asian food with a nice atmosphere. The dumplings were especially delicious, and the salad and miso soup were especially good. Then the bento box is always fun. The only negative was that the teriyaki chicken could have a little more char on it.“

“I finally got to try this restaurant after the shut down of Ichiban and I was not disappointed, the chicken teriyaki has a more soy taste to it than sweet which I didn’t mind from Ichiban. The chicken teriyaki was delicious but the only critic I have is, for the extra portions of meat or shrimp plating it better in the tray because the sauce was dripped all over the place. Other than the plating critic, that’s all I have to say, good job and Welcome!

Kid-friendliness: EA Teriyaki is inside of the mall, come on in and bring the kids with you!“

“A reliable sushi spot that we keep coming back to when we’re in the area. We went around 5:30pm and were seated right away. It wasn’t too crowded initially, but picked up as the evening went on.

Parking on Mamaroneck Ave can be a bit tricky, but if you circle around, you’ll usually find something.

We like sitting near the front with a view of the street. Service is consistently good, and it’s nice seeing familiar staff over multiple visits.

We usually order a variety of rolls and share, which makes for a great mix. Everything is fresh, well presented, and tastes great. A Sapporo pairs perfectly with the meal.

Definitely a spot we’d recommend and continue to revisit.“

“Hunan Larchmont has been my family’s favorite restaurant since my children were very young. We have celebrated many occasions there throughout the years and love the friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. Their food is always fresh and delicious!“

“Good lunch selections just that their miso soup is so salty. Otherwise everything else is very good. I had salmon teriyaki with California rolls. It came with side salad , miso soup and steamed veggies. Salmon size serving is big for lunch . Very happy with the order. Cheap for $14.“

“The food was delicious, with the sushi tasting amazing. Excellent quality. The sake was also great quality and not too dry or bitter. We enjoyed several appetizers as well as sushi options. We were disappointed to learn that the omakase option on the menu was not available even with planning ahead.“

“Food was great, nice decor and soothing atmosphere. Very affordable. Had a great time with family.“

“I’ve been coming to this place since I was a kid — I’m 31 now and still just as in love with it as ever. We even stopped by recently with the family right before a snowstorm, and it reminded me why this spot has always been special.

It’s a family business, and you can feel it. The owners and employees are super friendly, welcoming, and consistent. I first came here when I was 6 years old, and 25 years later, the flavor still impresses just as much.

That kind of consistency over decades is rare. A true classic that never disappoints.“

“Eat in or take out the food is always great! Order food to pick up and it is always ready! Friend workers, doesn’t get any better than that 👍“

“Can’t wait to go back!
Water Moon is such a cozy little gem. The vibe is super relaxing, and the dumplings? Unreal. So flavorful and perfectly made, we couldn’t stop talking about them. Our server, Anna, was the sweetest and made everything feel extra special. Sad they’re closed for remodeling, but I’m already excited for their return. Definitely a favorite! Perfect for a business meeting, a friends/family get together, or even to sit down and do some studying and enjoy lunch!“
