24 Best Japanese Restaurants near Auburn Hills

“Delicious food and good service. Friendly staff“

“First time here, best sushi I've had in awhile. The salmon and tuna melted in your mouth. They have kabayaki but, not traditional. The octopus salad was nice, needed a bit more octopus for the price.
That being said will definitely be back.“

“Excellent cooks at the table! Was a truly entertaining experience!“

“This place is golden I wish this was closer to Detroit cheap but amazing food is served here!!! Got two plates chicken and beef with fried rice and both were absolutely amazing and made me rethink where I eat. I'm now looking for a new chinese/japanese restaurant near me because it was so good, I dont think I'll find one like it though.“

“What an amazing find! Was in the area on business and discovered this establishment! Can’t wait to return. I love ramen so thought I’d check it out. The lunch specials looked amazing. I ended up ordering a katsu bento box. Delicious! And excellent portion sizes. Can’t wait to return!“

“Sushi King is one of those places that doesn’t need luxury to stand out. It’s small, simple, and cozy, but what truly matters is on the plate: incredible sushi, fresh and full of flavor. You don’t go there for the looks—you go because every roll is absolutely worth it. Without a doubt, it’s one of those spots that quietly earns its place as a favorite.“

“The masses will talk about the so called “authentic” “hole in the wall” or “novelty” sushi restaurants. The ronin, the noble fish, the kura. These restaurants are for exactly that, the masses. The common folk. And, I hope it stays that way. The real purveyors of fine food and atmosphere know that the best sushi restaurant sits in a humble strip mall sandwiched between a pizza place and auto parts store. Take Sushi is the american melting pot’s version of Japanese izakaya. Intimate, friendly and humble with exceptional food that remains consistent for years. An evening trip to take sushi means you are often sitting shoulder to shoulder, it means dim lights, the faint sound of korean music, and of course, excellent food. The sushi is phenomenal, the hot dishes punch way above their class, and the soups worth a try if you are in the mood for something unique. The atmosphere feels unlike any other establishment in Michigan. It feels lived-in, cozy and authentic, there is little modern influence and that is a good thing. If Take Sushi is anything, it is comforting. This is evident by the near constant “How have you been?” between the staff and each patron who walks in. So if you’re looking for sushi and you haven’t tried Take, arrive hungry, with an empty stomach and open heart. And, if you decide it isn’t for you, that’s ok. There is a corporate mass-appeal sushi restaurant that should do the trick.“

“Lovely Japanese like bakery with cotton cake (fluffy cheesecake) with your choice of syrups liķe, raspberry, chocolate, strawberry
Vanilla, pistachio. Lots of choices for coffees. I had lavender vanilla. Absolutely ♥ delicious. I also had one slice of blueberry lemon cheesecake but I would pass on that one. The girls were very helpful as I needed cakes for a going away gathering so they explained the syrup process. Out of this world delicious.“

“Our new favorite for sushi & Thai!! Great taste & portions for reasonable prices!! Highly recommend!!!!“

“Its just a small sushi shop with, you guessed it, sushi! I enjoyed the meal, it was simple. Gyoza, cancun rolls, spicy California, and lemonade. Its a cute little place. I went in the afternoon to eat. Not many people there. My overall dining experience was cozy with good food. I did eat by myself and paid almost 40$“

“Just has a really nice sushi lunch here. Sushi lunch special well priced at $14. The food was great and served was appropriately attentive. Atmosphere cute and homey. Love that it’s in Rochester’s charming downtown. Would definitely come back.“

“I am absolutely outraged with the behavior of the owner today at SOHO. My family and I went to this restaurant after Saturday little league games. We had 5 adults, 5 children and 2 babies. We have been to this restaurant countless times as a family. Today, after sitting and looking an menus, ordering drinks, we were met by the manager that came to our table and said “I’m sorry our limit is 8 people”. Confused, we asked for clarity because again, we have been to this restaurant countless times with the SAME group and number of people. In fact, we have NEVER been to this restaurant with less people. I asked, “wait are you saying we can’t eat here today because of the number of people?“ THAT is how confused I seriously was. The manager then responded, “Yes, I’m so sorry”. I pointed out to him that we had been sitting, getting ready to order for quite some time. Moments before this, the waiter came to take our orders but had to leave to grab us extra napkins. He said that his waiter called him all the way from his home because he couldn’t “do it” - referring to asking us to leave. There were quite a few other staff members there. So if this was a rule, why didn’t any of them point it out to the “new person” or let us know right away Of their “party limit”.? Please know we went on a Saturday around 330pm and there was two other parties in the entire restaurant - totaling only 5 other people. To me, if I had a party that was a few people over my “limit” I would not kick them out one, but definitely not when my restaurant is close to empty and the party has already been sat. Because of my “new team members” error- as a manager, I would have continued to serve this party. I need to point out that NONE of us in our entire lives have ever been asked to leave ANYWHERE. We are a Christian family of Pastors and ministers. I say this to speak to our character. There was no behavior on our end, that warranted this. I also pointed out that the table we were sitting at was DESIGNED for more than 10 people. We didn’t come into the restaurant moving tables and chairs together, the table was already set up for 12 people to sit there. I asked the manager why we were sat and waited on For all this time to then be kicked out? He claimed that the person who was our waiter was new and didn’t know their 8 people limit rule. I pointed out the fact that the table we were sitting at was set up for 12 And asked why that is if they had a limit of 8? He then said with our number of kids - it is not safe for them in the restaurant because their establishment serves alcohol. So first it was because our party was more than 8 and then it turned into being an issue with the number of kids? There is absolutely no reason for this behavior. To me, the only thing that makes any sense is it being racially discriminatory. I strongly urge you to no longer go to this restaurant. Of course, we left with no issue because if we are not welcome or wanted because of race or any other invalid reason- we don’t want to eat at the restaurant anyways. But point of my review is to prevent this from happening to anyone else. we used to love this place and our entire family would come. never again, even with 2 people will I step foot in this establishment and I will strongly encourage everyone I know and everyone that’s reading this to do the same.“

“You may have a wait because the place is small however the authentic Japanese food is well worth it.“
