50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Milton

“I never eat at restaurants below a 4.3 but glad I didn’t see this rating before I sat down because it’s quite inaccurate! I’m a foody and sushi is in my top 3 categories of frequented restaurants. The sushi was great and the prices are exceptional. It’s a family run restaurant and the atmosphere is just that. It’s not a chic, boutique sushi restaurant which is why the prices are very reasonable. If you want good no frills sushi this is your place!
Most complaints and 1 star ratings are coming from size of sushi on $1 sushi night. People….it’s $1 sushi!!!“

“I've been here several times over the years. Tastes great. I especially like the chicken and shrimp with rice.“

“Absolutely delicious sushi/hibachi. Really great options on the menu. Easy to miss this location if you’re not paying attention, but I’m glad we saw it and gave it a try. Will definitely be adding this to the rotation! We had chicken/steak hibachi (cooked perfectly), VIP roll, Spider roll, and rainbow roll. All
Yummy!!“

“really amazing food. so fast and delicious! wonderful experience! Kaya Signature with the Karaage ...perfect spice, flavor, texture, broth. we were here at noon and had our food in 15 min from the moment we walked in the door and we did not rush to order.“

“We stopped in here on a whim... spontaneous night out. The place has japanese vibes inside and was quite comfortable. They appeared busy and our food still came out fast. Food..... was GREAT. Best fried rice we have ever had. We did the large sashimi platter, and some Nigiri blue fin Toro and wagyu A5. I see a bad review or two in the reviews.... not sure if they caught them on a bad night or something but, for us.... this was great. Added to our list we would consider becoming regulars.“

“Quality ingredients great staff. Still adheres to Saftey protocols.“

“Okay, another Google bloop, I have rated this place 3 times already since it opened.

Phantom reviews. So here I go again, love this place for Korean food. Ive eaten Korean food in Korea. I was married to a Korean for many, many years. I know what Korean food is and what it's supposed to be. These guys have it down with love.

You name the dish it's game on, we come back here every time we have a craving.

So glad there's something Korean on this side of town so I don't have to drive over to buford.

Plenty of parking. Go to the parking deck and on Saturday do the farmer's market thing. Then, make this your brunch stop. Great place.“

“Oh my goodness!!! Such a great spot !! So much flavor in everything!! Very friendly & attentive server . Must try the carbonara udon , it’s absolutely incredible. I loved the tempura shrimp and veggies as well. Absolutely recommend!“

“Great sushi! Love the chef. Always friendly and thoughtful.“

“Every piece of sushi they have is so fresh and the specialty pieces are absolutely exquisite. 10/10 can’t recommend this place enough“

“First off, I would definitely visit here again. As someone who has dined extensively across Japan and visited almost every Japanese restaurant in the Roswell, Alpharetta, and Sandy Springs area, I was very impressed by both the food quality and the attentive service. The only reason for the one-star deduction is the rice. While I understand it’s challenging to match the exact quality and texture of rice served in Japan while in the U.S., it still felt a bit lacking compared to a few other Japanese spots in the immediate area.“

“Hands down, the best sushi I've ever had. They incorporate truffle oil in some of their rolls and if you like truffle, you cannot go wrong. Very savory. I'd recommend the avocado balls, crunchy spicy tuna roll and the snow crab in miso soup. The truffle aioli salmon appetizer is another hit. The cocktails - Wow! Thai Me Up is a their version of a spicy margarita but they use some sort of oil and it is delicious! I'll be craving that drink for a long time. It's not cheap but if you're looking for a treat or have a special occasion, it's a full recommend from me! Thank you goes out to Kelly, our server, who steered us towards the fantastic dish selections.“

“I've been coming here often for lunch break. The hibachi is always cooked perfectly and everything taste so fresh, especially the sushi. The spring rolls are a standout: crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Friendly service and great atmosphere too.“

“👍 very good“

“My boyfriend and I came here for his birthday and we have nothing but good things to say! It’s run by a wife and husband and their daily hours are limited which allows for the food to be 10/10 also really recommended placing a reservation prior to going or else you might be turned away as they have only a limited amount of tables to also help the experience and be tended to in the best way. The sushi and sashimi is so fresh and delightful not in anyways fishy! We also had the beef skewer and that was also phenomenal! They knew we were celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday and brought out extra treats for us and made this experience 100 times better, if that’s even possible! We can’t wait to be back, we are already planning our next trip back!“

“If you haven't tried Mika's for great sushi, please give them a try. Richard and Anna are always helpful and deliver a fantastic product. And check out their HH specials!“

“Big “Thank you” to Dave (Manager) for his generosity in donating gift cards to Girl Scout Troop # 19799 at Dolvin Elementary in John’s Creek GA. This group is working to achieve their Bronze Service Award by collecting toiletries and birthday supplies for charity. This is one of the many reasons why we love our local Mellow Mushroom and appreciate their support in the community.“

“Food is 🔥🔥. I highly recommend the house fried rice & Wings 👍🏾“

“Great experience! The staff were very nice and the food came out in a timely manner. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and comfortable. The tonkatsu was delicious and juicy—not dry at all! I also tried eating it with the matcha salt, which was very different but surprisingly delicious. Would definitely come back!“

“Great food at reasonable prices.“

“It was so delicious~
spicy TONKOTSU ramen ,
SHOYU ramen,
,Bulgogi curry rice
, fried shrimp
It was delicious
I was very satisfied with the texture and taste.
The meat on top is grilled too well.
It was so nice to eat ripe ramen, green onions,
and bean sprouts together.
It is a ramen restaurant located in a food court,
so there are open seats.
When several people came, it seemed good to
share this and that.“

“Very good food, reasonable prices, fast service and friendly staff.

I had eaten at the old place (Korean chicken) and I was interested in the express hibachi for dinner tonight. From the time I walked in until I left with my food was under 10 minutes. Everything appeared to be cooked fresh and they used all white meat chicken. The egg rolls were fine as was the rice and vegetables - but overall the taste wasn’t as rich as I’d hoped.“

“Great ramen, hospitable staff, and great time. Will definitely come back again. Do yourself a favor and give it a try.“

“Best hibachi in the area 😍 I come here at least twice a week, let me tell you this my favorite spot for a good hibachi meal 🔥

“Amazing food and friendly staff! I have visited twice and both times I've left full and happy.“

“Simply the BEST Ramen Soup ever 😎“

“Great service, hot seasoned food, very impressive. Sushi was great! Hibachi was great! Salt and pepper shrimp great!“

“The food here is great, but the service is outstanding. The servers don't just focus on a single set of tables. If someone who is not your server notices your drink needs a refill, or your table needs to be cleared, they swoop in and take care of it. I've been coming here for five years - often enough that they know my husband and my orders - and this is consistent across all staff.

The food is good, and fast. I love this place.“

“Fantastic sushi! I have only tried two rolls, miso soup, and gyoza here when I visited for the first time. Everything I tried is very flavorful without being overly seasoned. A difficult balance to strike, and they did it very well. The service was quick and polite. Great experience. Will definitely return.“

“We love getting takeout from SushiMing, consistently great quality & takes great 🤤“

“JJ Sushi Mania provides the most courteous family friendly service in a fresh, beautiful, and clean atmosphere. The food is delicious and beautifully plated. Owners go above and beyond to make you feel cared for. Many blessings to you all. Thank you. God bless you.“

“This is the best hibachi takeout in Alpharetta. You can order for pick up directly on their website and the food is always hot when I pick up. The flavor is much better than other hibachi restaurants; it’s our go to for nights when we want to order food in.“

“Amazing take out tonight! Our first time— we tried the steak hibachi dinner, cheese wontons, 92 roll, phoenix roll, and angel roll. The waitress helped us pick out the rolls based on what we like which was super helpful. Our order was ready quick and everything tasted 10/10. Will definitely be back to this neighborhood spot!“

“Brilliant Chef. Fish is off the charts. Toro and Chutoro are the real deal!!!! Simply the best Sushi around!“

“Sushi Chef Phillip, truly made me feel at home. It's rare these days that the Sushi chef. Will make time to converse with you. He asked about my favorite Sashimi cuts. Then arranged them in a beautiful way. Which not only appealed to my hunger. But also to my appreciation of his craft.“

“Delicious food and great service!“

Plates still heavy and customer service is always great 😊“

“Thank you so much for the delicious sushi.It was my first time having sushi made for me at the counter since coming to the U.S. from Japan, and I was so happy to have such a good experience. The sushi and miso soup were both delicious. I enjoyed everything. Thank you again for making my day so special.“

“Hibachi Express has been my go-to hibachi takeout spot for over 10 years, and they never disappoint. The food is consistently excellent—fresh, flavorful, and cooked with the highest quality ingredients every single time. Their portions are generous, always hot and made to order, and you can truly taste the care that goes into every dish.

The yum-yum sauce is absolutely to die for—perfectly balanced, creamy, and the best I’ve ever had. It complements the hibachi chicken, steak, shrimp, and fried rice in a way that makes every bite memorable. What stands out most is the consistency: whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, the food always comes out with the same amazing flavor and quality.

The service is fast and efficient, making it easy to rely on them for both quick lunches and family dinners. After more than a decade of dining here, I can confidently say Hibachi Express is unmatched when it comes to flavor, consistency, and value. Truly the best hibachi takeout around.“
