50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Palatine

“This is the best sushi, hands down. Whether you dine in or order out, you will not be disappointed. The food is consistently fresh and delicious. My favorites include gyoza, Hawaiian roll, Volcano roll, seared tuna, bento box..... and everything else I've tried. Please give them a try, you'll be so happy you did. We will never go anywhere else! Thank you Asahi!“

“Food tasted great! Friendly staff and amazing service. Will be back!“

“Great sushi. Friendly service. Consistent quality.“

“The sushi here is delicious and always packaged so you can be sure of the freshness and quality. But the price per person of $25.99 is simply insane. My husband and I counted everything we ate and it turned out that it was less than the amount we had to pay, which was $57.70 WITHOUT TIP. So there is no point in coming to the buffet anymore, because there is no point. I recommend calculating the cost of sushi and rolls on the website before you decide to pay $25.99 for All you can eat“

“Love this place! The food was delicious with amazing presentation. It's very clear the chefs put careful detail into every menu item and is one of the best veggie maki rolls I've ever had from a restaurant. The service was great and staff made my experience enjoyable along with the amazing food prepared, I highly recommend trying this restaurant!“

“So glad to have Tekka Sushi in town. There are numerous sushi options in the immediate area, and our family enjoys most of them, but for ambience and presentation, Tekka cannot be beat. I have visited for date night, business lunch, family meals--they never disappoint.“

“Always a dining experience for my tastebuds. The service, the food, the ambience. You couldn’t ask for more. The sushi rice is, hands down, the best we’ve ever had. Questions answered, recommendations given, new adventures with unknown cuisine. This is our go to for the authentic taste of Japan.“

“Very nice, hardworking staff and delicious food! Love this place and highly recommend!! 😋👍“

“In town from MN, and saw this place on Google. Glad we did it was amazing. Place was busy which means you know it's good, so we got take out. They even through in a couple appetizers for free. Sushi and Sashimi plater for 2 was amazing.“

“All other ramen pales in comparison to Chicago Ramen Annex. The Jiro style Ramen is amazing, the appetizers have been outstanding. The staff is super friendly and helpful.“

“the food is yummy / authentic japanese ! the service is great ,“

“One of the best sushi spots in the suburbs 😍“

“perfect foods...great decorations.. nice price...“

“A great find! Dishes are quite different than typical Japanese restaurant menu items, maybe a bit intimidating if you aren't familiar with the ingredients or style of cooking but rewarding for the curious or adventurous. Definitely coming back.“

“The food and service are great!“

“Can I give 6 stars?

1. Asked questions of Shoju, the owner brings beautiful bottle to show you and give a taste! This is better service than last night at 5 star Park Hyatt restaurant!

2. The Izakaya grill chicken skin & spicy pepper, 5 star presentation and taste. 5/5

3. The chilled tofu, 6 star presentation on an iced bucket, and for a steal price. 6/5

4. The simmer fish bone, good amount of fish collar, again nice presentation. 4/5

5. Fatty Salmon Nigiri, 5/5 So what’s the secret of make JP restaurant level sashimi VS the supermarket sashimi? Different level fish, or different knife cutting technique?

6. JP music at background and nice sushi bar seat, deco is 5/5.

I’ll be back for more. A new Gem in Chicago suburb. Must try, please. I’m concerned, they don’t have enough customer to sustain their current food quality / service / price level.

People, this newly renovated new owner restaurant is a must try.“

“Spicy miso Ramen, so good“

“Another successful Friday Date! Sagano offers a large selection of dishes, sushi was our reason to be there and Sagano didn't disappoint. Among the freshest fish we have had. You could see by the look, color, texture, and taste Sagano sources only the best grade stock. I give Sagano 5 stars just based on quality and freshness.“

“Great food. Excellent friendly service.“

“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.“

“Royce chocolate and cookies is located inside of mitsuwa along with several high end vendors and shops. Royce doesn't disappoint. Paris was extremely helpful and went over all of the offerings that Royce had. I ended up getting the variety pack because I couldn't make up mind. Great gifts for the adventurous tongue and even for someone with a sweet tooth. The have adorable pink gift bags to make it for a quick pick up. I absolutely recommend the fromage blanc chips, they are delicious and daring at the same time!“

“We had a lovely birthday celebration for my husband. We were able to sit outside on warm fall night and ended special attention and delicious food. There were four of us and we each had a scrumptious meal! No leftovers, we enjoyed it that much!!“

“Great spot for sushi tucked away in this shopping center. Went here with my family for dinner. Ordered four sushi rolls and we enjoyed all of them. The spicy tuna crunch was especially good, with the fried rice adding great texture to the dish. The restaurant was nicely decorated and upscale. They were well staffed and service was exceptional. All in all a great experience, thank you!“

“Came here from Dallas. It was like $9 for a bowl of udon absolutely loaded with chicken. The chicken was unbelievably tender and the broth was super good. Like unironically, this was the best udon I've ever had and it was like $5 cheaper than what I'm used to in Dallas. And the lady was very nice.“

“First time going here was amazing, staff was great and very respectful, and don’t even get me started on the ramen, everything about it was amazing from the taste to the look. But yeah honestly great place to grab ramen.“

“Always great entertainment and food!!!“

“Just went last night and happy to say that it is finally improving after hitting a slump during the pandemic. The food has always been excellent but service is spotty. Last night, I would give a solid A- for service, and the food, an A+! Hope they keep the upward trend!“

“Best sushi ever, great hospitality, I recommend the Salmon Sunset. I can never get sushi anywhere else, this place is a hidden gem!! 10/10“

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

“Love it!!!, the food and service was amazing. Would go for it again. 10/10!“

“They had yakitori, which I tried. I ordered the chicken thigh, pork belly, and sausage. Everything is cooked to perfection and smells good from the charcoal fire. The pork belly is my favorite because of the fat, the meat was crispy and tender. I ordered the karaage don (mayo & poached egg) as my main course. I believe the teriyaki sauce was overdone. As a result, the chicken lost its crunch.“

“Absolutely fantastic! I ordered the Kaiseki Bento with Salmon, and it was a feast! The grilled salmon was perfectly cooked—crispy skin with tender, flaky meat. The bento came with miso soup, fresh salad, delicious gyoza, tempura that was light and crispy, and a few California rolls that rounded out the meal beautifully. Great presentation and flavor. Sushi EN has definitely become my new go-to for Japanese lunch and dinner specials!“

“Food was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend!!“

“Very good quality fish. great service“

“Party sushi Trays - Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — every bite was perfection.“

“delicioso! 100% recomendado“

“amazing all you can eat wagyu and snow crab shabushabu!“

“Curry has good flavor. Yakisoba has good flavor, but mixing the two in the same dish was too much. The yakisoba also comes with thinly sliced pork mixed in so it's not vegetarian. The karage chicken had good crunch and was soft on the inside but seemed over priced for the quantity given. There's a good variety of side sauces that you can put in to go cups yourself at the counter. The wasabi soy sauce was the best. There's a long wait time.“

“The food was amazing and the service was even better! Jacklyn was so helpful throughout the whole menu process and was very attentive to mine and every other customers needs! The owner, Steve was also great as well! I highly recommend the restaurant.“

“awesome sushi place it was yummy“

“I absolutely love the chick who works here at the front counter, she’s so friendly, I love her energy. Doesn’t hurt the food is really good. But honestly I look forward to seeing her every time I order there! Thanks for your good attitude towards the service industry, it’s appreciated.“

“great place to eat, very good service and very large portions. loved it here“

“Amazing food, made to order!! Delicious and fast please tip the servers well!! They deserve it“

“Phenomenal in a true gem in the Hoffman Estates area. The crabcake is to die for. Some of the best sushi that I’ve eaten all around. Very reasonably priced super tentative staff. If you have the opportunity to eat here, take it.“

“Delicious food and good ambiance“

“Enjoyed a simple but incredibly tasty lunch with the BlueFin tuna and crunchy rolls that were soooo good. Yum!!!!😊👍“

“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“
