27 Best Japanese Restaurants near Erlanger

“Sake Bomb is a great little Asian Restaurant/Sushi Bar in Erlanger. We've been here a few times but it had been quite a while. They have quite a lot Asian dishes but on this occasion we focused exclusively on the Sushi. Among the one's we had were the Sunday Morning (my personal favourite), fire scallop, and the firecracker among others. They are all visually appealing and absolutely delicious. The chef really took a lot of care crafting flavours into every bite. I really can't recommend their Sushi highly enough. Also I know I mentioned this in earlier reviews but the restaurant looks so magnificent and really authentic to Japanese culture. The seating is very close quarters so I must mention that as it might be off-putting to some. All in all the Sushi was excellent, the service was good, and the place looked awesome. Fantastic experience.“

“We come here several times a month. The food is delicious and owner goes above and beyond to give us a great experience! My daughter is gluten free, and he makes every effort to bring us items that work for her diet. Worried about dining in during these uncertain times, Park did an amazing job disinfecting and partitioning off tables to keep our experience safe!“

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"“

“Jay Jay, you must work for the competition ! I've been a cook over 35 years. There's nothing unusual about the cleanliness that is a usual kitchen. They are not pretending to cook.. They're really making you something.. that makes a little bit of a mess. And a little wear & tear nothing unusual, jay jay, you lying. Food was good and the service was excellent. And they're especially generous, especially compared to the competition nearby.“

“We are on vacation and decided to try this place out. I would recommend 10/10. The chef was amazing. My grandkids have never been to a Hibachi place. The chef interacted with the kids as much if not more than the adults. Good was fantastic! Waitress was a little slow but the place was really busy. I will definitely visit if I am ever here again!“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat lunch. I have sampled many of the items on her menu and all of them are just wonderfully delicious“

“Outstanding customer service. Wife and I and 1 year old grandson went to Fuji for wife's birthday dinner. Just as chef starts cooking my grandson gets ill (vomiting). Wife runs him to restroom and I get help from staff for floor. The staff assisted my wife with bringing her warm towels to clean him up bags to put dirty clothes into. Once we got him changed they helped us box our untouched meals and got us the check promptly. The staff went above and beyond to help us get our little guy cleaned and get our food prepped and out the door as we didn't want to upset other guests. My wife ate her meal at home and said it was great.“

“I've been looking for a good Chinese takeout restaurant for a while now, and the search is over, we've found it! Come for lunch or dinner!! Everything is hot and fresh just wonderfully seasoned, it's just all over a great experience. We love HOT WOK!!“

“My fiance and I are currently here, super full and only halfway through our noodles! He got the spicy mala noodles and I got the chicken broth with chicken tender noodles. We also got the egg rolls but we ate them too fast for any pictures. The food was DELICIOUS, and the server was fantastic! We will definitely be coming back!

UPDATE: Return visit today, August 11th, and just as great! The server was the same, and he was wonderful. We will have to come back more often! I got the chicken broth with noodles like before, and we also got the egg rolls again. Differences were that we also got the fried dumplings which were so good, and my fiancé got the sesame chicken - he loved it! Definitely come here for great service and yummy food!“

“My wife and I just discovered a hibachi spot that's lit - Miyako Steakhouse and Sushi! Fair prices, fantastic food, and top-notch entertainment. I mean, it's been ages since I've been to a hibachi that actually entertains. And I'm not just saying that 'cause we had six tiny tornados at our table - every table was getting in on the fun. If you're in Crescent Springs, do yourself a favor and get on down to Miyako Steakhouse & Sushi Bar - it's our new go-to hibachi spot!“

“If you’re looking for top quality sushi in the tri-state, this is it. The freshest salmon I’ve ever had. They use real crab not imitation as a lot of restaurants do. Crab Rangoon is made fresh daily. Never frozen or out of a bag. This is truly the freshest sushi I’ve ever had in all of my travels. My spouse loved the fried rice as a new favorite. We live 500 miles away. EVERYTIME we are in town to see friends and family, we make it a point to come here for dinner. TLDR; best sushi you’re missing out on if you don’t stop by.“

The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and very helpful in setting this up. To say the food was delicious is an understatement! Until we actually outgrow the capacity to host us we will keep returning! Me personally, I will return regularly!“
