29 Best Japanese Restaurants near Snellville

“I was traveling thru and met up with a friend for dinner.

Let me tell you, this was the best dang dinner I ever had!!!

We were seated with a family that knew the cook and everyone there. Between our cook and this family, we were laughing all night long.

Our hibachi was so very good, steak was so tender!! I wish I had gotten names from everyone. If im ever in the area again, I will definitely go back!!!“

“If you go, get the double shrimp roll. I’ve been sushi all my life and that one right there is solid.“

“I had the steak and white rice, very good. Ate the whole plate in no time! We sat inside and ate it was very chill nothing crazy it was calm but not awkward or anything. My sister loved the mango boba and the vegetables and everything was good. I’d definitely recommend“

“We went to Sakégura for the first time yesterday to celebrate my husband's birthday, and we had an all around wonderful experience!! We initially had a 6pm reservation for a party of 8 but needed to adjust the time earlier at the last minute. They graciously accommodated and were most welcoming and attentive to our family. Everything was set up, including the high chair, when we entered, and the service was expedient, efficient and exceptional. Very, very friendly and professional team. As a family with diverse dietary restrictions, we appreciated the careful attention to ensure clarity when taking our orders. The hibachi chef was also superb, taking time to engage the kids, acknowledge my hubby's birthday and verify the details of each order. The food was perfectly cooked to order with generous portions. Overall, it was one of the absolute best dining experiences we've had in a while. We've lived in the area for five years, and I've shopped in this area regularly but have never tried Sakégura. We've been missing out, but we'll definitely return. My high standards of excellence were exceeded. Thank you Sakégura team!!“

“Do I even have to say much? This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants and not even all the fancy overpriced ones in downtown Atlanta can beat this one. Everything on the menu is good and I mean everything. My favorite is the lobster fried rice, bagel rolls, pad thai, pad si ew, panang curry, I could go on. I took my Vietnamese family here and mind you my mom is a great cook and my parents are strong food critics but they absolutely loved it. Unfortunately after the pandemic, they’ve been raising the prices due to inflation but everything is fresh and great portions. You won’t regret it, trust me on this one.“

“Very clean and simple layout featuring a sushi bar as you walk in and both indoor and outdoor seating.

We were greeted quickly and shown to a table immediately.

Our complete order ended up being: 2 waters, 1 cold green tea, 5 rolls, 1 Chef's Nigiri, and 2 Green Tea Ice Creams.

We were presented with miso soup to begin, along with kimchi, shredded daikon, marinated broccoli, and pickled onion.

Loved that they gave us soup spoons and chopsticks without the usual fork, knife, and spoon.

For the rolls we ordered Garlic Crunch Roll, Hide and Seek Roll, Mango Tango Roll, Volcano Roll, and Golden Tiger Roll.

Nigiri was fresh and their rice was good.

I don't know where/who they get the green tea ice cream from, but it was the perfect ending for the meal.

Have easily spent the same amount at flashier, popular sushi places and gotten lower quality, so this was a solid homerun in our book.“

“Very good and nice atmosphere.“

“The food is always so fresh and the service is so quick! Have been coming here for years and it is without a doubt my favorite place to get some authentic Japanese food!“

“Came here to eat dinner for a friend’s birthday and everything was delicious, the Yama Roll and American Dream are amazing and I will gladly get it again!

Things I loved:
Ramen was flavorful, Sushi was immaculate, Thai tea was the perfect addition to the meal

I will say, if you are not a fan of cucumber, the Naruto roll is not for you. Otherwise, everything was great especially for the price!

I will be coming back! (They also had Naruto playing on the TV)“

“Very pleasant & good vibes“

“Been here many times, and it is always excellent. Usually grab takeout for the guys in the office. We all love it.“

“It's a neat soup restaurant where you pay at a kiosk and don't have to tip. You pay first and the wait time for your food to come out is not very long. Food allergy information is unclear as there is no separate explanation. I'm eating well.“

“Gentleman at the counter was very friendly and the sushi was good, but I ordered habachi rice- in the picture it looked like it was fried rice (with egg and veggies), but I got it and it was only rice and soy sauce. Also, I ordered four Miso soups (because my hubby just had surgery and is on a liquid only diet and it’s what he was craving), but all of the containers were only half full when I got home. We were both pretty disappointed :(

I ended up having to essentially recook the rice at home by adding egg and veggies I was expecting.

**update: after posting this review the manager reached out personally and offered to give me soup to make up for the small portion- what amazing customer service! I’m very impressed**“

“The establishment is much larger on the inside than it appears from the street. It is absolutely beautiful inside. The beef tataki here is amazing. Easily the best I’ve had. The fish on the nigiri rice i ordered was heated due to the rice being so warm. That was off-putting as that is a dish traditionally served cold. Not pleasant. The shoyu chicken ramen was about what you’d expect for a $12 soup. My server made sure I had everything I needed and constantly checked on me. All in all it was a good experience. I’ll be back.“

“Go ahead and try to top this. You can’t do it.“

“Everything love ❤️ the owners great service great food relaxing atmosphere everything about it is great 😊“

“The food is amazing. I tried the Snow Mountain Roll tonight and wow!! Definitely give them a try if you haven’t already“

“Clean and friendly atmosphere. Very reasonably priced.“

“I always eat at the Takis at home in Hiram Ga now I'm in Dacula Ga They're all good 👍😊👍“

“Great place! Dan the Sushi man makes great sushi for the price. Consistent and dependable. I come here with the family and have had the hibachi as well, it’s great also but our favorite is the sushi“

“If you have a. Large group or big family celebration. It’s perfect for big families. Like a big birthday elderly person who have a celebration. Ask her miran Kim She is great and magnificent. Great team.“

“Fumi is top-notch when it comes to service.. Kamal is one of a kind.. he is very attentive and ensures me and my girlfriends are taken care of..
Their appetizers are fantastic..

Rock shrimp, Brussel sprouts, spicy tuna roll, and fried blue crab claws are out of this world with flavor.. we sometimes add a side of hibachi fried rice on the side and the drinks oh my my my my my my...

I love this place..“

“I'm not from here, so I wanted some good lemon pepper wings wet. When I arrived I asked the man at the counter if the lemon pepper would be wet. He said yes, but when he showed them I really didn't see a lot of sauce. When I say the wings here are delicious, it's not an understatement. The strawberry cheesecake is good too, and I will be returning.“

“This Thai basil beef and chicken dish is truly delicious! You can really taste the smoky flavor, along with the fresh basil leaves and a satisfying kick of spice. Plus, the portion is huge, making it a great value. The service was also very friendly.“

“Me and my family have been coming to this Shogun location for a couple of years now and we are always treated with nothing but kindness from all staff and members. Momo is an amazing waitress who never fails to make us feel at home. She is always making sure we have everything we need to make our dinner delightful from remembering our orders from previous visits to connecting with us on a personal level. The cooks do an exceptional job at making the food perfect to your needs, all whilst putting on a lovely show for all families to enjoy. Overall, Shogun has an amazing atmosphere and is a wonderful place to have a dinner with family or friends.“

“I love the chicken tenders! Best I ever had. The wings and hot dogs are also great. Wonderful service and clean restaurant.“

“Me and my hubby went on a Saturday night place was cool cute little spot all the other spots are pretty jumping in the they have a bowling alley n night club but this place is place quiet and chill great date night is intimate and the food is real good the Thai egg rolls were to die for I had the house rice and hot wings the rice was good the wings were so good I just wish they were a tad bigger he had the duck it was good but a lil tough but the food was good and service was great we will be back and yea the sushi was good they have raw and cool both were good.“

“Service was Great as well as the food. My son and I were satisfied. He wanted another Sushi roll. He gave it 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. While waiting for food we dined in the young lady brought it out with a smile along with extra sauces . We will return!“

“I asked Mrs. K. what she wanted for dinner and she said, "Poké!" so I let Yelp find it for us along the way to where we're spending the night. We arrived at Poké Bar (it's a chain) at around 7pm on Friday and other than three other dudes eating their dinner and drinking some boba, we were alone.

We noticed that the restaurant was clean as we checked over the poké bar, other than a whole lot of boxes stacked in the back. As we ordered our bowl, the tuna ran out but the young man serving pulled out a fresh tray from the cooler and removed the wrap. Yay!

On a sticky white rice base, tuna and salmon, topped with spicy avocado, seaweed salad, krab salad and sesame seeds. With a bit of wasabi on the side that was not needed as the fish was perfectly fresh tasting. The rice was sticky enough that we did not need a fork and we cleared the plate. Quite delicious, filling and fresh tasting.

We'd eat at Poké Bar again!
