10 Best Japanese Restaurants near Middlebury

“Fantastic place for Chinese food. Fresh and full of flavor.“

“I ordered the most expensive roll, the lobster king roll, which had lobster and avocado inside and mango outside! This was my favorite roll EVER. Our server said that this same roll was also her favorite. I also had the Thomaston roll, tried the sunrise roll and the Mars roll. Still the Lobster king roll remains my favorite. I also highly recommend the shrimp tempura appetizer! Their dipping sauce is the best I've ever had!

Parking: Park in the plaza next door, over the bridge.“

“Awesome food, service and staff are great.. everyone is so friendly“

“Quaint space perfect for meeting up with friends or as a date night. Menu has plenty to offer and service is both friendly and quick. Prices match what you’d see at similar places , though the pieces of sushi did seem smaller. The serving size was spot on regardless and everything tasted great!“

“I typically never write reviews for restaurants that we only visit once while traveling but this spot was phenomenal. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating and made us feel welcomed in a restaurant we’ve never been to before. The food was prepared for us quicker than any other Chinese food spot I’ve been to and it tasted AMAZING. They offer both Chinese and Japanese food so the variety was large. Sometimes when restaurants have a lot of selection, the food is moderate but that wasn’t the case here. We ordered a lot of food and everything was delicious. Space is very clean too. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area“

“Love the sushi at Minami! Fresh, delicious, and great prices! The all you can eat is a great deal if you’re extra hungry.“

“One of the Best Japanese Restaurants in Connecticut if you love Sushi and Sashimi. The Spider roll made with fried soft shell crab is to die for!! My wife had the Dinner Bento Box with the Bento Chicken and loved everything. The service was outstanding. The prices are very reasonable and the portions generous. The soup or salad that comes with the meal is very good. We go to the best rated restaurants in Connecticut and NY. and if they were to improve their ambiance/atmosphere which is a little plain and make the restaurant more romantic it would be a destination restaurant and one of the best anywhere.“

“amazing food. Always fresh and great quality, we have been there 3 time's in the last year & it continues to be consistently delicious with fantastic service. With the decline in food service since covid this restaurant stands out for excellence every time“

“Hands down the best hibachi restaurant around. The food is always fresh and the portions are big. The price is very reasonable for what you’re getting. The service is good. I usually dine by myself for lunch break. I’m not overly bothered by staff which is nice. It’s very clean also. In my opinion this restaurant is better than ALL surrounding towns that have a hibachi restaurant.“

“Everything is always so good“
