25 Best Japanese Restaurants near Garrison

“This place is really nice and the prices are outstanding, sometimes when there only one bartender it's a lot for them to manage making drinks for so many they need 2 bartenders during their peak times always. KAYLA, the bartender is amazing. Friendly attitude is always helpful, and a few others sorry don't know the other girls name. When they ate there and elk staff, which has not been lately, not sure why, but when they ate, you will have a great time food inexpensive, but good drinks are always nice. You must go and see.“

“Wonderful sushi in the heart of old Ellicott city! Several rooms to dine in. The top back of the restaurant is the best, they play jazz music and there's a beautiful view of the river with the sun setting out the window. The sushi and apps we had were phenomenal and I will definitely be going back! Our server was very personable and I enjoyed her very much!“

“Me and my boyfriend ordered from here plenty of times for takeout and always enjoyed their sushi! We started dining in recently and it's just a relaxing place to eat. Love the atmosphere and the kind service. The food just seem to taste better too! Just a lovely experince overall and good food.“

“We were just making a stop on the way home from a soccer game and I can’t explain how much I wish we lived closer to this place! It wasn’t too busy, the service was quick, and the staff was amazing. I love this place and wish I could come and eat here all the time!“

“Our favorite local sushi place. Rolls are cheap, but not TOO cheap - quality is good, and we've always enjoyed our meals. I prefer to take my wife for date night - this is six regular rolls, and on the boat without asking for a boat! We love Yama!“

“I absolutely LOVE Fuji San! I moved to the area almost two years ago and this was the first place I ordered from. I order almost once a week, and occasionally done in for date night. The atmosphere is laid back and cozy. The service is cordial and prompt. And the food is AMAZING! Wether dining in, taking out, or delivery, you're going to love Fuji San!Vegetarian options: VEGAN OPTIONS!!!my wife is vegan and she highly recommends the panang Curry with tofu..Just be sure to tell them to make it vegan as I believe the sauce has to be modified. However, there are more dishes that they will be able to make vegan... Just ask!“

“Food was delicious and the service was super good. Enjoyed the quiet atmosphere where you can enjoy a good conversation. Definitely a good place to enjoy some quality sushi with friends and family~! Highly recommend it! Owings Mills roll was really good~“

“Yamato Sushi is one of the best Japanese restaurants in the area. It's on the smaller side, especially compared with Umi Sake or Sushi Hana, but that doesn't diminish the restaurant's excellence. I've had both sushi and entrees from the restaurant and everything is exquisite and fairly priced. The staff is very friendly and attentive, the latter of which is definitely helped by the cozy environment.I highly recommend giving Yamato Sushi a try. You won't regret it.“

“I have never been let down by the crew at Quickway Timonium. Every time we order food, it is delicious. I now order on line and pick it up on the way. They are fast and very polite. The sushi is also good and a nice treat. I have only tried the hibachi meals, not the bento box yet. I'm addicted to the beef and shrimp hibachi combo with fried rice and veggies. The flavor is just too good!!! Parking is busy in this lot because Starbucks is next door, so just take it slow and be careful. This place is worth the hassle though.“

“This place is great. Staff is friendly and food is excellent. I did pick up tonight and I don't think it's any different for pick up then it is for in house service. Noodles and rice for little ones if they haven't been introduced to the Asian cuisine. A little bit of a drive for me to p/u but worth it.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible at drop off. Most parking is at the bottom of the hill. Worth it though!“

“Good food but my friend and I felt rushed as the woman hostess kept asking if we were done twice when we visibly had food still on our plates. Nice atmosphere and good sushi just need to be mindful of rushing customers especially when it’s not “

“The food was really good, and the presentation of the sushi clearly showed the effort put into preparing the dish. The quality of the sushi was excellent, and I especially enjoyed the tuna, which was super fresh and buttery; it was just amazing. Additionally, the price was pretty reasonable; I paid about $40 for what is shown in the photo. The server was very knowledgeable about the menu and the types of fish, which is important because different areas of the fish taste different.“

“Excellent sushi restaurant on York Road. This is our go to place when you want a sushi fix. You have to try the crispy salmon skin roll. I have not had any other place come even close to this restaurant’s preparation. And of course their Escolar Nigiri is divine! And it’s BYOB!“

“I finally found AMAZING sushi in the Baltimore area! I’ve returned 3 weeks in a row to Naru. Their salmon sashimi is the freshest I’ve had in the States, and their rolls are terrific. Naru Sushi is part of the BeSeTo food court, with 3 Chinese, Korean, and Japanese restaurants and a marketplace downstairs. The ambiance is casual and relaxed. I've only tried the Japanese place, but the food court is always packed, and all the food looks great!“

“We frequent this place as it’s the closest to our neighborhood. The service is very friendly always. The food is good quality and made with good quality ingredients. The inside of the restaurant is a bit too cold, but that’s my only gripe. If you carry out your food, my only piece of advice is to get it right away. Don’t let it sit too long or it won’t be as tasty :)“

“Don’t miss out on this gem! I would drive 45 min here for sushi 100%. Visited twice and both times food and service were excellent. Terrific attention to detail and great menu options. Did I mention I got 3 dishes for $26? Don’t go, run!“

“Pleasant atmosphere and helpful staff. They also serve vegetarian dishes and will veganize (omit egg, mayonnaise, fish) your food upon request.Some months ago, my family visited Sushi Sakura for lunch and ordered Japanese Vegetable Fried Rice, Vegetable Lo Mein, Cucumber Avocado Rolls and more. Everything was tasty!“

“Just want local folks of Ellicott City to know that Niko’s is open for carryout/takeout. We celebrated my birthday by getting sushi and meals from Nikos. As usual their sushi is fantastic with an outstanding what I call fish to rice ratio. Please support your local restaurants. Thank you“

“The food is always hot and fresh and isn’t greasy like a lot of places are. The owners/staff are always very very friendly. This is my go to place for Chinese food. I drive 30+ mins because it’s that good! Their vegetable egg rolls are my FAVORITE! And the roasted pork fried rice is so good too!“

“I go here for lunch all the time because they're oddly the most affordable lunch option given the surrounding area. But over the weekend I hosted some friends and got a platter and it was immaculate. This is literally the best sushi spot in the area. Everything is fresh, if you're not into the "raw" aspect of sushi but would like to give it a try, everytime the fish tastes fresh, feels fresh and they're not stingy with providing adequate portions per roll. I'm never disappointed, even with their apps and entrees. Me Personally I enjoy the Salmon & Yellowtail because they're the more flavorful fish to me, but it's all yummy. Not to mention they had my order ready on time! I can't say enough good things about Edo Mae!“

“This place is so legit. I used to live in California and the thing I miss most is probably the poke out there. This is actually the same in terms of variety and quality. Kind of wish I hadn’t discovered Poke Bowl because now I’m going to crave it pretty often.“

“This place is good. I dont really want to tell people so it doesn't become too busy. But i also want them to do good so they stay in buisness. One of the last places that deliver and not through a lousy 3rd party with extra fees and higher prices. People on the phone are always nice and easy to easy to talk to and understand. It's definitely my go-to Chinese food place.“

“Ikkyu is inside Lotte's food court and is my favorite choice out of the 4 restaurants inside! Tonkatsu 10/10- crispy, lots of sauce- comes with rice, pasta salad with cucumbers, a side salad, pickled yellow radish, and a small bowl of miso soup - they used to also give kimchi but I guess they updated the menu Once you order, they'll call your order name/number on the intercom once it's finished. Service is relatively quick!“

“Chiyo Sushi in Mt. Washington is a true gem, offering a warm welcome and an authentic Japanese dining experience. The menu features a delightful mix of traditional sushi and innovative dishes, all showcasing the freshest ingredients. The standout for me was the Roast Duck and Dragon Roll, a testament to the chefs' creativity and attention to detail.“

“Great new place! We stopped by for dinner at Absolute Thai. We had a great dinner. We ordered crispy Brussel sprouts in a soy citrus sauce, and crispy chive dumplings in a thick soy sugary sauce. Our parang curry with chicken was delicious with lots of kaffir lime leafs in a rich coconut spicy broth. The spicy eggplant was very good. We ended with mango sticky rice. We had great service. The environment is unusual -- a restaurant with one wall open to the mall. We enjoyed our dinner!“
