50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Longwood

“We have been going to Kobe Steakhouse for several years. Each time we go it has been a great experience. The food is wonderful and the staff are amazing. For the past 20 years we have requested Chef Fuji. He is so fun and really engages with everyone. Chef Fuji always gives us a 5 star experience! I can't leave a review without also mentioning a server who we almost always get, Kevin. He does such a wonderful job and always makes us laugh. Tonight was our sons 21st birthday and the staff, as always, made it a wonderful memory. I can't recommend Kobe Steakhouse enough.“

“Love it! Best lunch special around! Fresh Sushi and wonderful owners.“

“The food is absolutely great ! The drinks are great as well as the service !!“

“Linh and Wawa Great time and service“

“We stopped by last night for the first time for dinner. Food was amazing and the service was excellent. Kudos! Keep up the good work! 👍“

“We came here because of the positive celiac safe ratings and we’re not disappointed! The outside is very deceiving because it is small and not fancy but inside is quaint and minimalist but cute. They serve only bowls but the options are extensive. They are very well versed in food allergies and sensitivities, which was a relief as we have a family member with celiac disease and unable to eat dairy and soy as well. The cashier checked with the chef several times to ensure the ingredients met their restrictions and assured us that all precautions would be used to avoid cross contamination (separate prep area, glove change, etc). The portions were huge and they were delicious! The Korean fried chicken was good but very sweet, so be aware of that. The beef was so good! Cooked perfectly and very flavorful! Beware that parking is very challenging as they share a tiny lot with a cross fit and other businesses. We got lucky to get the only handicapped spot for my mom otherwise there was no parking. Definitely recommend to come here and we’ll be back to try more options!“

“Highly recommend Omo, great atmosphere and fantastic food!“

“Was incredible. The cheezus is a must. The spice from the bomb that was added into my Ramen made it just right for me(if you enjoy spicy) The shishito peppers accompanied the ramen perfectly. Our server Brandon was amazing and attentive, fun guy! All around, I highly recommend this place.“

“Absolutely amazing experience at Gyukatsu Rose!!! The quality of the beef was outstanding, tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The presentation was beautiful, and the interactive grilling experience made the meal even more enjoyable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had a great atmosphere. Every bite was delicious, and the portions were satisfying. I would definitely recommend Gyukatsu Rose to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable dining experience. Can't wait to come back!!!“

“Really great sushi for SUPER reasonable prices. I’m not the greatest connoisseur of sushi and am trying to broaden my pallet and this is a low risk, low cost, very chill & casual place to take a chance on something new. A true mom & pop shop“

“This review is long overdue, as I dined at Sorekara quite some time ago. Even then, it was clear that something special was happening here. The experience was thoughtful, creative, and executed at an incredibly high level from start to finish.

I remember leaving feeling certain that recognition would follow, so it’s no surprise to see Sorekara now holding two Michelin stars. It’s well deserved. I’m thrilled to see they are still going strong and continuing to receive the recognition they earned. A truly memorable dining experience.“

“Great selection nice kid’s menu“

“This place was stunning, the food was beyond amazing. The service was impeccable, they explained every dish, where it was sourced and they mindfulness behind the preparation. This is a wonderful experience in Orlando, 10/10 recommended.“

“First time there yesterday and the service and food were amazing. Love the all you can eat deal!!!“

“Outstanding place, great food“

“🤙🥗🍣🍣🍣🍱🍜🍝🍤“

“Everything was amazing from the service to the food. It was mine and my partner's last night eatting In Florida, couldnt ask for a better place to eat. The food did not mess with my stomach at all I attaully felt good after eatting, I was not bloated. I could tell they make there food with love for a foodie like me thats so important!
The ragoons were phenomenal! I haven't ate ragoons like that in about 10 years. Suish one roll filled me up. Our waitress was so knowledgeable & very attentive bonus great conversation.
Definitely come and suport this mom and pop!“

“Just went this evening. My son's 21st birthday. The food was superb, the portions were large enough to prevent us going to a planned dessert stop afterwards. Very reasonable price too. definitely going on our regular outings list. Thanks“

“Their spicy tuna roll was the best I have ever tasted. The staff was phenomenal, very attentive and friendly. The new Winter Park location is awesome, I will definitely be back 😊“

“I would recommend everything!!! Not a single thing left us with disappointment. The sushi is fresh, the atmosphere is inviting, and the whole staff is beyond amazing. We've been back twice in a week and ordered it on Uber eats. Try the tuna pizza and all the rolls. So worth it!!“

“Amazing food and atmosphere“

“This was our first time coming here and it was a great experience. The gyzoa appetizer was amazing. Very light but full of flavor. TNT roll was amazing an prices were very fair! everything was awesome definitely coming back would definitely recommend. Im 32 yrs old an this is the first time I've ever left a review on a place I've eaten at even if I liked it. Great find.“

“We discovered this place while looking for somewhere with a decent chicken tempura and we ended up sampling a few things. Everything we tried from the rolls to the chicken to the soup were good. And the portion sizes were real nice as well, ended up with enough food leftover for a whole nother meal. Prices were reasonable as well. Definitely will be coming back.

The only knock, if I had to give it one, was there seemed to be only one server working there (there was a now hiring sign in the window so maybe that's why) and things came out a bit slow, but not like in deal breaker way.“

“This was by far the most impressive dining experience I’ve ever had. Fabulous food, amazing people.“

“I LOVE the food! Freshly made to order!“

“We came today and loved our experience! I ordered the Vegetable Roll and Eel Roll. My husband ordered the Pad Thai. It's a small storefront, meaning service is fast. The food is made fresh in back. You know it's legit because every roll is made my hand and authentic. Don't rate poorly for speed please as this is a small business, and I have noticed America is used to McDonalds speed. We were in and out in 20 minutes with fresh food, but I know people rate poorly if not immediate. This is because it is quality. The server was so kind and genuinely interested in knowing us, and signed us up for a reward system. After one meal, we were 1/3 way to a discount. We will be back!“

“Great food and place! Best ramen 🍜 I’ve ever had ☺️“

“Boku Sushi Maitland is my new favorite sushi place. I tried two rolls, Drama Queen and Foxy Lady. My husband had the Beef Wagyu. Our friend had the curry and EVERYTHING was delicious!!! Even the miso soup was very tasty and fresh. Ben our server was informative, personable and attentive. We spoke with Miller, he gave us more interesting information about the restaurant and asked about us and where we were from. Highly recommend!! Loved the food and the eperience!!!“

“I recently visited this ramen spot and was thoroughly impressed! As a fan of bold flavors, I tried both the Tantan Ramen and the Spicy Miso Ramen and they did not disappoint. The Tantan was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice and nuttiness. The ground meat and sesame flavors were spot on, making every bite super satisfying. The Spicy Miso was equally amazing deep, umami-packed broth with a kick that warms you up without overwhelming the palate. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the toppings were fresh and generous. Service was friendly and fast, and the atmosphere was cozy but lively. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great food and environment“

“Great sushi and atmosphere without hurting your wallet. You can tell the ingredients are always fresh. Definitely a must try if you love sushi!“

“This is the quintessential neighborhood sushi joint that makes you wonder why you try annywhere else. I have never had a less than stellar night at Miyako from the recently updated decor, to the friendly and helpful staff, to the creative, filling and FRESH sushi rolls. There’s hibachi available as well. It’s casual, cozy, clean and family friendly, too. Love Miyako so much!“

“Awesome ramen, friendly service, very reasonable prices, and perfect portions. I'll definitely be back. I recommend this place.

Back again! Can't get enough. Consistently amazing. The picture is the lunch portion which is ample and satisfying.“

“Nico is truly exceptional, and Mosonori is incredibly lucky to have him. He always recognizes returning guests, greets them with genuine warmth, and takes the time to ask how they’ve been. His consistency, kindness, and attention to detail make every visit feel personal and memorable.

On top of that, the hand rolls here are some of my absolute favorites — each one presented individually, perfectly fresh, and at the ideal moment. That level of care, paired with Nico’s hospitality, is a huge part of why I continue to return.“

“Great lunch specials and service. We had a party of 11 for lunch and Kiko’s delivered on fresh, tasty and beautiful sushi, rolls and bento boxes! Everyone was pleased and looking forward to returning.“

“We love this place, not just for the delicious food, but for the fabulous service....( Olivia) is by Far the BEST ...!!!“

“Great service Food was very good And the value was excellent“

“Love Koi. Sushi is the best we’ve ever had. I love the family that runs it and the atmosphere. It’s our favorite place.“

“It’s a five star review with only four stars for food service and atmosphere because it’s about a 4 1/2 star five stars to me. It has to be really off the chart incredible. However, hibachi express did not disappoint. Not only did I walk in and order I was attended to immediately, and my walk-in order was done shockingly fast during their busy dinner hour. I would highly recommend eating here for express sushi and I saw the hibachi looks really good too.“

“Delicious food!“

“Great food with large portions and fast service!“

“The food at Sarku Japan is very good, especially if you're a fan of fresh hibachi-style dishes. The flavors are satisfying, and the portions are generous for the price. However, the location being inside Altamonte Mall is a bit of a drawback. You have to order from the food court and eat at the shared mall seating area, which can sometimes be crowded or lack the ambiance of a standalone restaurant. Despite this, the quality of the food makes it worth it, and it's a solid choice if you're at the mall and looking for a tasty meal.“

“It can improve but it was really tasty and I missed going there, plus they had Ramuné (the lychee flavor is my favorite)“

“I had such a fantastic dinner experience at Sushi Lola's last night. Every dish, every drink, and every dessert I tried was delicious and cooked (if cooked - many of the raw dishes were my favorites, of course) perfectly. I highly recommend the peach soju and the sora rolls. The restaurant is a smaller space, but has great ambiance and is exceptionally clean and classy. The staff is so attentive and polite. I have already personally recommended Sushi Lola's to several of my close friends and family members and can't wait to visit again soon!“

“great place to eat love it“

“Incredible place with 5 star food and The artwork on the walls is so inspiring and the artist Sabien was sharing his art in house today. What a special place!!!! We will be back repeatedly and are forever thankful for your event on July 7th Super hero’s exist in many different ways. Thank you for this!!!!“

“I have been eating from Super 8 for over a decade when I lived in Casselberry. I now live in Deltona and will still get take out sushi from Super 8 when in town. Always fresh, great portions, and prices! Extremely friendly staff!! 10/10“

“I will be 100% honest if you get the all you can eat, the presentation may not alway be on point. That being said the taste is so good you won't care. I love getting AYCE as it offer so much diversity in the tastes and experiences for the food. I come here twice a month and it is WORTH every dollar. The staff are also kind and attentive.“
