14 Best Japanese Restaurants near Mokena

“Went here for my friend's birthday on a weekend right at dinner time. I booked at reservation and was seated almost immediately. The staff was very friendly and our chef on the grill kept the mood lively. The staff also gave my friend a nice birthday shoutout, even though I let them know it was their birthday, no idea what they were going to do so it was a pleasant surprise. I'd definitely go again and try the steak. As a person with a sensitive stomach, everything was really flavorful without any of the oil or butter triggering anything.“

“I had the deep fried dragon roll, my husband has the Kung Pao chicken, and we also ordered the chicken and broccoli for my son.

He said this is the best Kung Pao chicken he's ever had and that's usually all he ever orders when it's offered. The wasabi for my roll is some of the best and most evenly flavored and has a kick! This is our new favorite place to go. Prices are fair and service is excellent and complimented by a beautiful environment.

Just one question, what does the table say? We had fun trying to figure out what it said. I'll have to go back to confirm! ?

Parking: Plenty of handicapped parking.

Kid-friendliness: It's not a play place but the snap peas keep the kids entertained!“

“Been here a few times now and got their sushi lunch special. Decent sushi at decent price. It's a small carry out with 2 booths. Not intentionally for dine in. They're always friendly and nice. Which is why I'll keep coming back. I liked that the lunch special comes with a big container of soy sauce and miso soup. As a matter of fact, I might stop by for some sushi today ?“

“This has been my favorite restaurant for 25+ years. Their service and food are of the highest quality. They are better than any hibachi restaurant and I will only go here for hibachi. The garlic lobster and shrimp are out of this world. I have even gotten taken out numerous of times and it’s still just as delicious!“

“Food is fresh and excellent. I find it to be one of the best in the area. Non greasy, good flavor, service is ok, but when they attend to you, you have their undivided attention. I have been there a few times, and it does not vary. It is also very clean, with large tables and booths.“

“We recently visited for my bday on 5/31. The decor is beautiful and the service was stellar! Everyone was attentive and friendly. Our hibachi chef was amazing. He was extremely entertaining and super accommodating. He made our hibachi dinner experience the best we have ever had. The food was perfect and great portion sizes. My son even ordered Spider rolls and said they were amazing! My two teens and 1yr old enjoyed it immensely! Thank you all for the great celebration. We will be back for sure!!! Highly recommend to all!!“

“I love this place been here twice had a different waiter today and it was amazing my sons 13th birthday didn’t rush us very patient even lit a candle for him to make a wish I love it great food and service can’t ask for anything more thank you 😊“

“Food was great- ordered a few combos and they were wonderful. Drink menu was fab and the bartender and server deserve some extra credit. Our table was the furthest from the bar and we ordered 2 rounds of martinis. They filled those martinis to the top- and I mean the top. The server walked all the way from the bar (slowly) and did not spill a single drop. We were more than impressed! Love a full martini glass!“

“Bamboo garden is a hidden gem inside of a first I almost passed it by well, I'm glad I didn't. This place has been a local gem ever since Number One Chop Suey in Oak Forest closed this is. My new go-to for Chinese food. I had the chicken walnut dinner spicy and my friend had beef. Broccoli, both dishes were very good. The restaurant itself was clean. However, they did seem a bit unexpectedly short-staffed for our visit. I would go back. I would recommend it to local friends.“

“The food is fantastic! We will be back.“
