50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Lake Buena Vista

“Customer service is amazing! We had late reservations and the kids were hungry. They let us check in and took us back as soon as they could. Food is delicious. We would eat here again! Best place yet out of all of the parks. We highly recommend!“

“Shiki-Sai was one of the highlights of my visit to EPCOT.

I’ll admit, this isn’t the cheapest meal you’ll find in the park. I decided to splurge on some of Japan’s most prized offerings, including toro and uni, and it was worth every penny.

What makes this restaurant special is its commitment to authenticity. Many of the fish selections are sourced directly from Japan, and you can taste the difference. Everything felt exceptionally fresh, and each dish was prepared with incredible attention to detail.

The food alone would be enough to recommend this place, but the service elevated the entire experience. The staff was outstanding. Everyone I interacted with was warm, gracious, and attentive. The servers embodied the kind of politeness and hospitality that many people associate with Japanese culture, and it added so much to the overall atmosphere.

If you’re looking for a quick meal, there are certainly less expensive options in EPCOT. But if you appreciate high-quality sushi and want an authentic dining experience, Shiki-Sai is absolutely worth the splurge.

I loved this place, and it’s become a must-visit for me whenever I’m in EPCOT.“

“The chicken buns are the best thing I've tried at Disney especially when paired with the sauce from their Japanese fried chicken. Honestly don’t know how it’s rated so low we went back everyday for 3 days in a row lol.“

“What an incredible dinner at Benihana Orlando (Hilton Hotel at Disney Springs)! The hibachi chicken and shrimp combo was amazing, and we loved swapping soup for double salads — fresh and flavorful! The chef’s show was full of personality and made the evening feel special. Perfect spot for couples, families, or anyone who wants a fun, interactive dining experience near Disney Springs“

“Kimonos is a fun spot if you're looking for an energetic night out, but it wasn't quite the experience I expected for a relaxed dinner. Karaoke begins at 9:30 p.m., and once it gets going, the restaurant becomes quite loud. If you're hoping for a quiet evening or an intimate conversation, this probably isn't the best choice. However, if you're with a large group celebrating or just looking for a lively atmosphere, it's a great fit.

The highlights of the meal were the Legends cocktail and the Crispy Pan Seared Rice with spicy tuna and avocado. The crispy rice had great texture and flavor, and the cocktail was well-balanced and enjoyable.

Overall, I'd recommend Kimonos for the food and the fun atmosphere, but not if you're looking for a quiet, romantic dinner“

“Sushi nota 10 e atendimento nota 100000 super recomendooo ❤️“

“shirley was an excellent server for my family tonight. also, melvin did an oustanding job cooking our food. we had one member of our family who was allergic to scallops-melvin worked around that issue without any difficulty. thanks to all kobe staff for a wonderful evening!“

“We had a great experience while here on Spring Break. Joel “Is Blowing Up” our chef was hilarious and kept the energy up the entire time he cooked for us. We had two young kids with us and sat with another family that had 4 children and we were all near tears of laughter the entire time! Thank you for a GREAT experience!“

“We love it here been coming here since twenty years ago. You can dress up or dress down. Go with your family or for a romantic dinner. It’s just a great authentic Japanese experience and the chefs who cook at the table are amazing and so kind and friendly“

“The food and the other guests at our table were great and the Teppanyaki chef was comedy gold! - If he ever retires from being a chef, he'd make a fortune as a stand up!“

“Best sushi I have ever had. The service was friendly, fast and they were super sweet. I recommend the fried shrimp, fried dumplings and cucumber rolls.“

“100% Japan authentic 🎌🏯🇯🇵🗾“

“Highly recommend visiting. The flavor of the food was good, impactful but delicate at the same time. We especially loved the wagyu dumplings. The drinks were perfectly balanced. Miguel M was our server and despite it being quite busy, managed to remain attentive and caring while still giving us our privacy and space. The exterior and interior were both beautifully decorated. Looking forward to coming back again!“

“Recomiendo foods for dine in“

“Steven it’s the best!!!

Absolutely amazing experience from beginning to end! Everything was excellent , the food was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The sushi was incredible, the cocktails were delicious, and the atmosphere made the whole experience even better.
What really stood out was the service. Everyone was welcoming and attentive, and we felt very well taken care of throughout our visit. You can tell they truly care about the quality of both the food and the experience they provide.
We came from Tampa and it was absolutely worth the trip. 100% recommended! We will definitely be coming back. 🍣🍸✨“

“The sushi here was great! I tried the bubble roll and New York roll. I liked the bubble roll a lot, especially the crispy wontons! I had never seen a sushi roll with capers and red onions, so I was very intrigued to try it. It was very tasty, I liked that combination especially with the salmon and cream cheese. Bagels and lox in a roll essentially! The seaweed salad was also good. The prices here were very reasonable, especially moving form Colorado, I’ve noticed some prices here are more expensive. This is the closest I’ve gotten to CO prices.“

“The sushi was very delicious. It was my first time eating it in a long time and I was very impressed with the quality and the flavor. Great prices and service!! I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Kenny the cook was so funny, food was very generous and tasted great. Highly recommend this restaurant. I have been to other locations but this one is the best!! Keep up the great work.“

“Love this little gem off of International Drive, Orlando! The atmosphere is very cozy and friendly. The food is amazing! The food presentation makes each experience of dining here something to look forward to. Big shout out to Sara and team for making every visit worthwhile for everyone! We love you guys and we’ll keep returning ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Wholeheartedly recommend Nagoya Sushi and Hibachi ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“food was fresh and delicious“

“I am a server, and Juliana was running the front of house almost completely solo. She was hosting, bussing, and food running, ON TOP OF BEING THE ONLY SERVER ON THE FLOOR! The fact that this restaurant offers an “all you can eat” option, means that she was running exponentially more food than a typical server would have to, and taking many more orders! She was outstanding!! Food was delicious as well, but we would come back just for Juliana!!! <3 10 out of 10!!!“

“Great sushi and service . Beautiful view of celebration“

“We ordered aome apps and hibachi. The steak and scallops were cooked perfectly. Everything was seasoned to perfection. I can not say enough positive things about this place. Everything was knocked out of the park. Food, drinks, service, ambiance. The price definitely matched the quality.“

“Super recomendo. Excelente atendimento e comida saborosa. Atendende Gabriela e Aguines super atenciosas e simpáticas. Local aconchegante e familiar.“

“Absolutely the best Khao Soi ramen you’re gonna find in Orlando! The people that own and run are so nice and friendly, and they hand make their noodles from scratch! We absolutely love this place.“

“If you’re looking for amazing ramen in Orlando, you have to try Oodle Ramen! 🍜 The food is absolutely incredible, the service is great, and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. The prices are just right for the quality you get. I’ve tried ramen all over Orlando, and this is hands down the best I’ve had. Highly recommend!“

“We drove 1 1/2 hours just to eat here for a birthday dinner, food was amazing! I would make the drive again easily! I ate teriyaki chicken. jasmine rice & plantains. It was so delicious! All my family members loved it as well, service was ok too“

“the best Japanese street food in the area .“

“I was looking for a Sushi restaurant near my parents when I was visiting from out of town. Choices in the area for sushi are few and far between. I found them on Google maps and then checked out their ratings there and on another restaurant platform. Nagoya Sushi and Hibachi has pretty good ratings out of 5☆, so we gave them a try. My parents got the lunch special scallop hibachi and they loved it. I had the Paradise roll, with the freshest fish and colorful fish roe on top and a simple yellowtail and scallion roll. I finished off my lunch with both an eel and tuna sushi(nigiri). Besides these menu items, they also do Ramen bowls, udon noodles and teriyaki. They have something for everyone. This is a gem in Davenport, FL.“

“Food was delicious!! Great service and atmosphere, the price for all you can eat is totally worth it.“

“Cynthia and Rosa provided bag, gift service, and listen to all the dates of our meal“

“We were there this weekend and I absolutely loved the food and service. Location was easy to find and close to our hotel!“

“One of my favorite Japanese restaurants! The food is excellent and reminds me a lot of the all-you-can-eat sushi restaurants in Brazil. The salmon is always very fresh, and everything is well prepared. The service is also great — the staff is friendly, attentive, and makes the experience even better. Five stars for everything: food, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommended!“

“I ordered a large tray for pickup with modifications and it was done perfectly. Everything was fresh, tasted so good, and had amazing presentation. The gentleman who was working the truck was very nice and accommodating. Will be ordering again!“

“I really enjoyed our dinner and experience at Temak House Orlando. The food was exceptional! I did find that there is an almost overwhelming amount of dishes containing cream cheese. Would recommend this restaurant for the food, service, and atmosphere always!“

“ive been wanting to try this place for a while and finally stopped in. the steak and chicken plate was huge and honestly way better than i expected for such a quick spot. the flavors were on point and it didnt feel greasy at all, just fresh. definitely going to be our new go to for a easy dinner when we dont want to cook.“

“Absolutely magnificent!
Very delicious sushi. I got the Green Dragon Roll which blew me away I had to let everyone on staff know how well they did. Very lovely service and attentive when taking your order. I come here every now and then with my Mom, she enjoys the Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box with fried rice. They did well in keeping the broccoli out for her allergy. Always memorable flavors and great staff! Since it is located in the food court I can't guarantee the same experience twice.“

“Outstanding food ! Highly recommend“

“Excellent place, delicious food, nice atmosphere, spectacular view!
We were looking for a place for our Christmas dinner and we found it, we achieved our goal of eating well and watching the Disney fireworks from the rooftop, perfect for the night!
The girl who helped us made some mistakes but the girl at the reception (Heidy) treated us incredibly, very attentive, cordial and friendly score 100 for the reception and the place!

Wheelchair accessibility: Elevator.“

“Found a new regular place in Orlando. Great food and best service from Lucas our waiter who was super nice and attentive. The vibes are just right for date night or casual dinner. Spicy korean fried chicken was a 10/10! (Tonkotsu ramen pictured)“

“We were there this weekend and I absolutely loved the food and service. Location was easy to find and close to our hotel!“

“This place was great, way better than Kobe and Benihana. The value for what you get is impressive. The show our chef put on was the best i have had. He was funny, interactive, and made us all feel welcome. They also have buy bogo beer, wine and sake. I only wish I lived closer.“

“Really nice place to eat. The sushi was awesome. The service was great Will be visiting again the next time we are in town.“

“Came here during our annual family Florida trip. As I was walking by I saw that this place has Bento Boxes, so I was intrigued. I got the chicken bento box and a couple of chicken egg rolls to try on the side, my wife got the steak bento box. It was good, much better than I was expecting! And the value for money is good too, it's not your typical overpriced mall food that you can just make at home.“

“If I could only pick one park to visit, this would be it. EPCOT is the BEST!“

“I love the environment and the food. The waiters are kind and friendly. The food is so authentic! This is the birthday anniversary friends spot!“

“Deborah was amazing! Thank you for being so helpful and kindly explaining the menu. Thank you for your recommendations as well. The food was very good! The rice in the sushi was a bit hard and stale but I did come at 8pm. Maybe the rice had been sitting there for a long time. I will come again but earlier :)“

“Best sushi I have ever had. The service was friendly, fast and they were super sweet. I recommend the fried shrimp, fried dumplings and cucumber rolls.“

“Best sushi in Orlando! Touken offers a wide range of delicious sushi and Brazilian offerings as well. G and Gabriel have both waited on us and provided excellent service! We tell all of our friends about this spot!!!“

“5 stars without hesitation. If you aren’t looking for anything bougie but you want some AMAZING sushi, then this is the place to go. It’s not hole in the wall, but it’s also not on your main strip which means the always have table. The specialty roll (Davenport roll) and spicy tuna roll were outstanding—fresh, delicious, and packed with flavor. Great service, great atmosphere, and easily some of the best sushi I’ve had. And they were quick. I’m originally from NY (born and raised) and my biggest complaint about florida is how SLOW, EVERYTHING is, but they had the food out within 15 minutes of us ordering. I also got a small cold sake. Kumo just earned a repeat customer.“
