50 Best Japanese Restaurants in Jacksonville

“Stopped in to scope out a place to take my native born Japanese mother. VERY GOOD FOOD - the tonkatsu ramen was fresh and not overly-salty as other places tend to serve. The chirashi was delicious. Will definitely return!“

“So let me tell you. I love their sushi. Good food. Great price. Always good service. Now a beef. I used to eat there twice a month. They give you fried Oreo for desert. Complements of the house. But when I order pick up guess what. They wanted to charge $6 for something they give me free. Used to be a regular and hate to even say something negative but that’s just not right.“

“Delicious food, excellent service, reasonable prices, very clean restaurant and the owners super friendly. My favorite restaurant ❤️. The best place to celebrate the birthday 🎉.“

“ALWAYS great food and great service! Very fresh sushi and salads! Their dinners are also always perfect, our favorite is the side filet medium. I love that you can get the usual full hibachi meals but if you don’t want that much food, they have a “side” menu where you can get just the hibachi meat without the veggies and rice. Best Japanese food around!“

“True hidden gem. Easily some of the best sushi in Jacksonville. Always fresh, great variety, and very affordable. Portions are generous and the quality is consistently excellent. If you want high-quality sushi without paying high-end prices, this place is a must-try.“

“Very friendly staff and great menu options.“

“I came here a couple times when I got to town because it was right next to my hotel. Now that I am in an apartment it's about 20 minutes away, and I tried two other sushi restaurants close by, but they didn't compare. So, I drive the extra distance just for this.“

“Beautiful presentation and taste and reasonable cost. From Texas and would come again.“

“This place has been my local takeout for Asian cuisine for 2 years now. Our orders usually contain a soup, sushi and a chicken entree. Generals and orange are a favorite choices. Food is always hot even when we get it home! Soups are tasty and seasoned well. Staff is helpful, and always gives us extra sauce when asked. We use the beyond menu from the google page and it’s easy to use once you get used to navigating it. We’re lucky to have this place in close proximity to our home.“

“We have visited this establishment several times and everytime has been an outstanding experience. The food has always been amazing and very friendly service.“

“Delicious food in a beautiful environment. Service was very good.“

“I don’t often go to the same sushi place twice, but for the past 5 years this has been my place! I love the service, I love the food, the atmosphere, and the great martinis Cindy at the bar makes😘 Always a great time. I always recommended to everyone:)“

“I wish I had some pictures to share right now, but I actually made a goal to support a local business daily who I truly believe in so I have to say that all location on one 103rd off the 295 in Jacksonville has amazing cuisine their chicken wings on top of that are amazing but they have very delicious fried rice. They have amazing chickens a variety marinated their eggrolls are amazing. I would just overall give the store the highest score ever because it’s never been a miss!!! They are just such a worthy business to start getting your food from!!!! I can say every single thing I’ve had from there has been amazing their crab Rangoon is also served with a unique red sauce. Just absolutely delicious and I personally truly enjoy the steamed Dumplings I’m having a brain fart on what the vocabulary was for that at the moment but those are just so good with them soy sauce I swear I would be an obento ambassador at this point 😂😂😂🙏🏻🙌🏻“

“Delicious sushi, Kani salad and hibachi! Excellent, fast service! We will be back!!!“

“An amazing experience that was professionally delivered by Zoe where we had a great meal with impeccable service. The General Tso chicken is definitely different now and quite frankly the best I have ever had. The number 4 spice had a great blend of heat and flavor. Will be back and add to night out regimen. You earned a customer, well done!“

“Great sushi! The staff is always so nice and helpful! This is my go to sushi restaurant in Jax!“

“Wonderful food and service“

“Best Japanese steak House food experience I've had in many years. Food was beyond excellent and the chef was friendly and, well the word talented just doesn't give him justice, but he was fanominal in his craft...
Highly highly highly recommend !!!“

“Incredibly delicious! Met my expectations & cured my cravings!! I highly recommend you try it!“

“Kingdom sushi Windermere é mais do que bem recomendado, melhor sushi da Florida“

“One of my favorite Sushi restaurants in all of Jacksonville. The sushi is always extremely fresh, and the service is beyond excellent.“

“We love this place! We always get DELICIOUS and fresh Asian fusion food and it never disappoints. Large portions, too!! We wish there was one closer to San Marcos, but we don't mind coming down to Bartram. Just for this!“

“I'd eat here again service is ok food is good“

“This was my favorite restaurant in Jax. But, the waiter decided to add a 20% gratuity to the total. We were only a party of two, and this typically applies to parties of more than 4. Be sure to check your tickets. He did this to everyone at the table. We will not be revisiting anytime soon. Likewise, he only checked our drinks once.“

“This is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants, and its convenient location near my home makes it even better. The sashimi and nigiri are exceptional — always fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The salmon, in particular, is outstanding and something I look forward to every visit. The staff are warm, attentive, and welcoming, which truly elevates the dining experience. I highly recommend this place.“

“Great spot for sushi burritos! I get a veggie roll every time, and sometimes I choose to have it rolled, cut, or even deep-fried.

The staff are super nice and always playing music. However, I notice that when a certain lady is there, the guys tend to be quieter and don’t talk much, as she seems a bit strict. This place is located inside The Avenue Mall in the food court.

The food is delicious and reasonably priced. It’s an extra $1 for deep-frying, and avocado and cream cheese cost between $0.50 and $0.75 extra, while additional sauce is just $0.25.

I highly recommend this place! I get a burrito every time I'm at the mall.“

“5 Stars. Great food and service. Prices are also great Highly recommend“

“This place is really surprised me! There is not very much healthy food options in the West North Side area but I was so happy to find a place that served sushi. I got the Spicy Shrimp tempura and it was super fresh. They are also fast and check out this Hibachi Shrimp, chicken, and steak! It's loaded to the top!“

“Excellent food and excellent variety. Sushi is top notch. They use Tamaki Gold rice on all Sushi. I eat here at least once a week.“

“This place is an overall five stars in terms of its cost and service. Some of the food is very good and well worth the price. Other food could be a little bit hotter at least or better quality at most. I would come back if I’m in the area and looking for a solid buffet.“

“We ordered the King Love Boat for my daughter’s birthday and it was absolutely perfect! Everything was beautifully presented and so fresh from the sushi and sashimi to the specialty rolls like the green dragon and rainbow. It made the celebration feel extra special. Highly recommend for any special occasion!“

“food is great and service is good quality over all“

“awesome food .and atmosphere...wonderful......🙂“

“I love this place. I drive about 30 minutes to get the amazing Japanese teriyaki chicken with noodles and steamed rice mixed vegetables and tons of teriyaki chicken. The portion size is unbelievably huge. Totally get your money's worth.. super friendly staff. Gilbert the manager and Miguel always greet me with a smile and a thumbs up. Way to go guys. Best value for Japanese teriyaki.“

“Good value AYCE sushi, I would say one of the better ones in the area.
The service was prompt and efficient.
We ordered several starters (edamame - great, wonton - good, lumpia - ok) and a variety of sushi and sashimi which all tasted quite good.
For just $27 per person for AYCE lunch on a Sunday it's a solid choice.“

“This place is a hidden gem! Absolutely love it“

“Wasabi Steakhouse is a dependable spot for a fun time. The food is really good and always turns out good. They are consistently reliable, whether you get hibachi or sushi. The chefs put on a good show, too.
The service is good, but not great. It's polite and efficient, but the staff is usually busy managing the crowd, so don't expect a lot of personal attention.

For a tasty Japanese food in a lively setting, Wasabi is a solid choice you can count on.“
