50 Best Japanese Restaurants in Jacksonville

“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.“

“There is nothing bad to say about this place. The food is absolutely delicious, the people are so kind! And the service is so fast. It’s one of my boyfriend and I’s absolute favorite places to eat at. Any special occasion I’m always asking to come here. My heart would be absolutely broken if it were to close.“

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

“Best sushi in town. Awesome food with the best service… Thanks Hiro!“

“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!“

“I found this place by accident while i was on this side of town. don't judge this place by the way it looks. It's not a fancy looking place at all, but the people are nice and the place is clean. The Sushi is excellent.....i have been to some of the restaurants in Jacksonville that are suppose to be 5 star but their sushi doesn't compare to this place. I price is excellent and they make it fresh as you order it and the taste is excellent!“

“Friendly staff and amazing service“

“Phillp Sushi is hands down one of the best (if not the best) sushi restaurants in Jacksonville. The two best rolls... "Out of Control" and "Godzilla Rolls" with soy paper are hard to beat!!“

“The sweetest people ever. I ordered on Uber eats and asked for extra sauce. I told them to request my cash app because I wanted to tip them for the extra sauce (it wasn’t an option on uber eats). They charged me an extra dollar, which was way less than what I would’ve given them, and gave me an extra sushi roll on top of a LOT of white sauce. Definitely will be ordering again. Thank you so much Tokyo Asian Kitchen and the angels that work there ! ♥️“

“Absolutely delicious! Incredible food and service. Definitely going back!!!!“

“Place is nice, service was great and the food is good. Lina our server was super sweet and attentive, made great recommendations. My wife loved the hibachi Salmon and my nigiri and sashimi platter was outstanding. We will be coming back soon.“

“If you want a pleasant dining experience and great food, this is a go to place. Clean and relaxing environment. Perfect for family, dates, just you. Everyone who likes Asian will LOVE this Asian food. The staff is 100!! I can’t dine out often so this is my treat for myself and especially any out of town guests I have to visit.“

“At Christmas we had 19 here the staff was amazing, the service was PERFECT!!! We tell friends to come here all the time, we come here at least 2 times a month!!! Can't get enough�“

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

“Very friendly staff and great menu options.“

“The food is always so good, large portions, and the staff is friendly no matter how busy or slow it is. One of our favorite date night places! Can be pricey depending on what you order, but you get what you pay for and we will be back again very soon!“

“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.“

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

“This was my first time eating here and it won’t be my last. The police was really clean and I am very excited for the new ownership of the building, the place was really clean and inviting so I did not mind waiting. The staff was OK. I think I may have annoyed the lady running the cash register because I took so long and couldn’t make up my mind what I wanted. But I did try shrimp hibachi it was really good and everything was fresh. The rice was sticky just like how I liked it. I also appreciate that you get two shrimp sauces or Yum Yum sauces with your hibachi order so that was great. The fried cheesecake was so delicious, crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. Love,love, love, the food. $19 + tip is pretty pricey for 1 plate and a slice of cheesecake, however try again.“

“my step daughter and wife's favorite place to eat.“

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

“Wonderful food and service“

“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.“

“I ordered the chow mein with crushed fried strips crushed on top and cream cheese wontons. Something new for me , it was so savory and I really enjoyed my dinner ! They are never too salty or too saucy, just nice meals. I usually order their house lomein, their noodles taste so wonderfully buttery and light. I rarely review but after so many great visits I proudly give them a 5stars. Thank you for servicing the area. The guy at the counter is always great as well.“

“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.“

“I cant begin to say how much mu hubs and I love this place. There is no hibachi table service but who cares when the food and servers are this amazing! We love Kyle and how attentive he is! My hubs alway gets the shrimp hibachi dinner and adds scallops thanks to kyle helping us figure out the best bang for our buck.
I absolutely love the relaxing, intimate environment and price point.
Theres an amazing canned cold green unsweet tea here and the sweet potato tempura sushi is the best.
We dine here at least 2-3 times a month.“

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

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

“Omg they have the best deep fried sushi rolls and they big they wings also so good and noodles this the best Japanese place I've ever ate at they food is so good I love it I could eat this everyday my daughter brung me here I been going every sense“

“Went for lunch after church on Sunday
Quick service nice and clean
Inside is bigger than what it looks from outside
I ordered Duval roll and Agedashi Tofu. I didn’t like dipping sauce had ginger in it. My husband order steak and shrimp hibachi without veggies could use little more meat. Overall it was good“

“Aqui em casa nem arriscamos mais outros lugares. Sushi é Kingdom ! Preço justo , atendimento , cardápio variado , tranquilo para ir com crianças e o MELHOR CARPACCIO do mundo .“

“Decent hibachi. Semi-decent sushi. For the same price you can take your wife to a real hibachi place - but if you want hibachi om your way home from work this is the best option. I'll give them a call 10 minutes away and it's always done when I pull up.

Parking: It is in the same strip as a Harvey's Supermarket...so....y'know.....
Lock your car doors when you go inside.“

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

“We had a reservation for 8 last night at the Hibachi table. Kelly was our server and she was great! We ordered a dry white wine and received a white Zinfandel which she quickly resolved. John John was our chef and he was fantastic! He had everyone laughing including the children! The food was delicious and John John made our evening perfect!!! He is the best!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Great food experience the chef and staff were excellent. They dont serve noodles with the dinner and I really wanted noodles with my hibachi but the fried rice was very nicely done. Overall good experience and good food. A little pricey though so best for special occasions.“

“Perfect location to fuel up with some awesome authentic tasting food. There was NO wait and all.the food was fresh hot and plentiful. The ribs and the sushi was truly the best. I'll be back, (3.5 plates) not including the ice creams and fresh fruit.“

“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.“

“Spent our two years anniversary doing the 17 course omikase experience and it was worth every penny. The service was amazing and the food went beyond our expectations. Can’t wait to go back and try a new menu“

“We had a great time! Exciting dinner and show! Our chef was a great humorist and sweet! Cinderella was playing out across the table. He could do better than that ginger witch. So could the kid. The fried ice cream. The Cherry Coke pairs best with Asian cuisine. ?

Parking: It fills up fast after they open.

Wheelchair accessibility: My handicap was politely accommodated!“
