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.“

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

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

“So good. One ticket is enough!“

“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!“

“My husband and I dined in at the new location tonight. The decor and atmosphere are beautiful, very pleasant. Our server was very friendly and super attentive. The food was excellent, absolutely delicious. My husband had the chicken and steak hibachi and I had chicken tempura. We both had clear soup and salads. Everything was so tasty, very flavorful!! Highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back!! 😋“

“Wonderful food and service“

“Love this place! I’ve had so many birthdays here. Their chefs are so nice and are always professional and the food tastes great.“

“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“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Wasabi Sushi has fantastic customer service! I placed an order for pick up but got a flat tire on the way to the restaurant.

I missed the pick up time. Later in the day I came in and they remade the order fresh at no additional charge, The sushi was great!

Thank you for a great dinner.“

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

“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.“

“I really hate that I have to post a bad review as we love this place but if it will help someone else with serious food allergies then so be it, I explained to the chef that my wife is highly allergic to scallops as someone at the table ordered them, usually no big deal except they brought the food out to cook and the scallops were on the same plate touching the rest of the food, then the chef carried on using the same spatula that he touched the scallops with to touch everything else, steak, shrimp, chicken, vegetables and the butter the scoup from the bucket to season and no one understood what cross contamination is. after a painful affair of trying to explain this to them they say they need to cook my wifes dinner in the kitchen then when it arrives it is subpar to what was cooked at the table, very disappointing needless to say, so just a warning if you go, if someone at the table orders something you are allergic to you are better off either changing tables or going elsewhere as sadly the food cooked separately in the kitchen is not the same as what was cooked at the table, also need to know what you all do with the tub of butter as I'm pretty sure you don't throw it away, do you just send it to the next table? use it again the next day? anyone with shellfish or mollusk allergies need to know it has been cross contaminated as I watched every move the chef made as if I had not we would have had to call rescue, so be extra cautious if you dine here and have such allergies, City of Jacksonville FL can we get a health code violation???“

“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.“
