40 Best Japanese Restaurants near Libertyville

“Food is amazing, Kenny was our chef and he was great! It as our first time doing hibachi and they definitely made an effort to show us a good time. Steak was the best thing we had ordered, it is pricy but definitely worth it for when u want a fancy night out.“

Don’t be deceived by the name. The food is very good. Very fresh really great service small intimate restaurant. They have a small dining area probably for parties that are somewhat small or overflow.. try it out so good !!
I guess you can order Omakasa I was looking at reviews and it looks amazing. It’s so fun to sit up at the sushi bar and watch their craft with those amazing knives so skillful.“

“At times this place can be short staffed and take a while to be sat , get your order and food . But the wait is totally worth it . I always get the spicy chicken ramen and it does not disappoint. I always come back and it always hits the spot .“

“Thank you Tony and Young for sharing cheer every year for my birthday since 2006!! Every memory with you both has made my life better!! Teaching me how to clean my grill to how to make the best rice!!! You both have touched many lives and gave lake county excellent Golden Shrimp to teriyaki sauce!!! Every meal of Filet Mignon combination Golden Shrimp with a side order of Golden Shrimp has been perfect and the same for 17 years! I am glad you both get to rest and relax after the New Year!!!! I will miss you both moving to Dubuque, purchasing cups and plates makes me feel like I’m there even more!!! ❤️“

“Pleasantly surprised by the ambiance, food and service. I had the poke bowl which was awesome, but my favorite item was the crab rangoon. They were made like pastries (instead of the crunchy cream cheese style ones) and were phenomenal. I'd highly recommend trying them out for yourself.“

“I have been going to Hayashi for years. Whenever, I have a craving for Japanese strip steaks, sushi, or Udon that is my go-to place. Excellent Food, Excellent Service, and Excellent Ambiance. I would highly recommend this Japanese steak house. They go out of their way to serve their customers. In my case, I love to have their kimchi and they bring it without even me mentioning about it. 5 Stars.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available in their menu.“

“Great sushi and food around! Price is amazing! Friendly staff (owner)!“

The food is amazing too!!! Out of all the sushi places we have visited, this is number one and has become our go to place.
Do yourself a favor and order the miso soup! It’s the best!!“

“Fresh snd FRESH!!!
If not fresh won’t offer it
Discovered this restaurant 13+ years ago like finding a gem. We drive from the Northbrook every time when we need our sushi. If course we tried other sushi options like Bluef**h or Kam***chi they don’t even come close to freshness or taste. Bonus top shelf wines and very knowledgeable friendly staff

Vegetarian options: Ask they can serve all dishes vegetarian

Parking: Shopping mall parking

Kid-friendliness: Family friendly setting side rooms for larger parties“

“The absolute best underrated sushi place in the area. The sweetest lovely woman runs the place, very friendly and traditional. Food is fantastic, and cheaper than other sushi places in the area. She sometimes can be the only one working so please be patient, support small businesses ?“

“A good option

Let's start with the food; They have quite a variety of food, good quality ingredients although nothing different or a reference point, I consider that their quality-cost-portion ratio is still in good balance, I would recommend perhaps improving the speed in food preparation a little .

Service, just good, nothing bad, nothing to highlight, it only remains as something that would not provide added value.

Regarding the environment, it is good, enough spaces for people, you can interact with the people you go to without any restrictions, you can go with your family, friends without any problem.“

“I cannot say enough good things about Koya. I was so happy to find this restaurant. Everything we ordered, tempura, tempura udon soup, kids bento boxes, and sushi was incredibly good. Can't wait to go back!

Kid-friendliness: The bento box options for the kids were great! My 2 and 5 year olds loved it.“

“They always have the best service here. My wife and I have been coming here for nearly a decade now and we have never had a bad experience. They are always very accommodating and help my wife who is Vegan. Hanabi is the best.“

“Imma be honest this place is really good me and my daughter went the sushi rolls are amazing the ugdon noodles are basically beef noodles and broth but good lol not gonna lie but the fried rice isn’t good to be honest that was only thing we didn’t “

“We love this place and we will going to miss it“

“They give you free samples which helped me to decide where to eat lunch. No regrets! They give you so much food for a good price. Service was quick, staff were friendly. I had chicken teriyaki with fried rice and vegetables. The vegetables were surprisingly yummy and I love that there were no onions in it. Will eat here again.
The teriyaki sauce is on the sweeter side, so if you don't like that, you might want something else.“

“I live in Sheboygan falls and i was in the area and decided to give it a shot for lunch. The girl with the glasses and tattoos at the register was very friendly. I asked her what she suggested and she recommended the spicy chicken with fried rice, or the chicken teriyaki with white rice. I took the spicy suggestion and OH MY GOODNESS. It was so good. I was just going to get a drink and she suggested I get an eggroll as well. It came with this sauce that was AMAZING. They need to open one of these places around me! I'll definitely back when I'm in the area! 10/10!“

“Our family has been coming here for over a decade; at least a couple of times/month. Every single time the food has been consistently great and the sushi is fresh. The staff know exactly who I am when I am there and always get the “Red Carpet” treatment.“

“Fuji Thai is the best restaurant in the area! I worked here for 4 years when I was younger and Ive been back as a customer every time I’m in town for the past 5 years. I can say from first hand experience, everything is clean and sanitary. The staff was always great to work with. For a first job, I couldn’t have asked for more. And Mona and her family (owners) are amazing! The food is incredible. Almost everything on the menu is made fresh and from scratch. Favorites: Tom kha soup Panang curry Double shrimp lover“
