15 Best Japanese Restaurants in Fort Wayne

“This place is absolutely the best sushi place in Fort Wayne.. super authentic and fresh while other places in Fort Wayne can’t even compare… I challenge anyone who enjoys sushi to take the challenge!! Consistency and top quality bring me back again and again“

“From the fine Manhattan to the generous wakame and tasteful nigiri plate presentation, this was a find. Humble exterior, warm interior, and great service. We're only traveling through, so we don't know if this is the best kept secret in Fort Wayne.... But we're very glad we found it.“

“it genuinely does not get any better than this. fort wayne is undeniably lucky to have food this authentic“

“Easily one of the best lowkey spots in FW, they have a great variety of ingredients and toppings. I always get a bowl (usually with marinated salmon) and they pack it full. Everyone's oh so nice too! Highly recommend giving them a try. For people wary of what poke it even is, think of your favorite sushi roll and just deconstruct it, hope that helps!“

“My wife and I had an eye doctor appointment, and we decided to check out Shoccu, which was a couple doors down. The restaurant was clean with a simple yet, very appealing wood theme throughout. Our waitress was awesome, and the food was too. Shame on me, I did not take any pictures of our food, but I can tell you it was an appealing presentation. The sushi rolls were amazing. I plan to go back for another round and get some pics. If you happen to be close by, put Shocco on the to-do list because bold savory flavors, crispy textures, and a full belly await you. Oh, as per the waitress, REAL WASABI! BONUS!
ADDED PICS, BECAUSE WE WENT BACK FOR ROUND TWO. SOOO GOOD!“

“I have passed by this place a hundred times over the years and never thought anything of it. I recently moved to the area and wanted something out of the ordinary for dinner tonight because the kids were off doing their things. I got a spicy kani roll and a tempura asparagus roll. They were absolutely delicious. The taste, texture, sauce, and ingredients were all supreme. The best that I have had in years. The miso ramen was outstanding. It was the perfect combination of salt, sour, crunch, and slurp. We will definitely frequent more often.“

“Friendly staff and great food. The drinks were good too but the food.....yummy🥰☺“

“I recently dined at Koto Japanese Steakhouse and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were courteous and attentive, always ready to assist. Watching the chef in action was entertaining, and the food was top-notch—every bite was delicious. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained. I would gladly return with friends or family for another great experience.“

“The best in FW!! Much better than the others!“

“It was amazing my boyfriend love it“

“Never disappoints. Friendly staff and the food is delicious. A hidden gem in Fort Wayne.“

“The staff was very polite very professional and food was amazing. I haven't had Teryaki chicken and rice in years as the one in my hometown closed. This one not only met my expectations but exceeded it! 10/10 recommend and will be back!! Already bragged to family that loves them as well! The price is more than it used to be when I was a kid but only by a few dollars and I was shocked. So still a very affordable price!“

“Great atmosphere & fantastic food! The live music on Friday night was awesome. Highly recommend.“

“Hands down my new favorite go to for my Asian food takeout!! The orange chicken and fried rice is the best I've had in a long time and the crab rangoons are so good! The service was great! Everyone was super friendly!“
