13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Saline

“This was my first time here and I'm pretty sure this is going to easily become my favorite sushi spot! The staff is super friendly and the wait wasn't too crazy at all. The atmosphere is very relaxing. I have social anxiety and sensory issues so I usually just get food to go but I don't think I'll ever do that here. The place is like a nice, calm setting where as other sushi places I've gone can easily get loud. I told the person about my severe allergy and they were accommodating and super sweet about it! Honestly, I don't have a single complaint about this place. The plating of the sushi is aesthetically pleasing and just wait until you taste it! It's like a flavor explosion in your mouth! 10/10 would recommend hands down.“

“Ive had both poke and ramen here, and both were great! Ramen really hits the spot on a chilly dayVegetarian options: Tofu available as primary protein. Veggie ramen available.Dietary restrictions: "Build your own" option makes it easy to control and know what you're ordering adheres to what you need“

“This hibachi restaurant is incredibly delicious! Move over Benihana’s! The soup and salad were excellent; the freshness of the lettuce and the tastiness of the soup hinted at the deliciousness to come.? The service was fantastic, the restaurant was clean, and the chef was engaging. A must-try for hibachi lovers!!!? ?“

“This was my first time ever visiting this restaurant after hearing so many good things I just had to try it and let me tell you it was beyond amazing. Joanna Was our waitress and when I tell you she was excellent I mean it. She made my boyfriend and I feel at home. I got the crab leg boil garlic butter, and Cajun sauce and he got the hibachi steak, and everything was cooked to perfection. The corn in the boil was so soft. She noticed we were on a date and she asked if we wanted our picture taken. And she posed us by having us hold up the crab legs. She was such a wholesome and sweet waitress. And not to mention the place was extremely clean. And although I don’t have children you can tell that they are very welcome there. I went to the bathroom and noticed that they had a bouncer for babies in there A changing table. Gender neutral bathrooms so dads can change the babies too ❤️ 10000/10 I will definitely be coming back“

“We have eaten here twice now, while picking up our daughter at UMICH. Both times the food was excellent! Also have to give a big shout to our server Cathy, who waited on us for both visits. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes and made great suggestions for us as we learned the menu. Highly recommend Slurping Turtle!“

“One of the best sushi places in Ann Arbor. Prices are reasonable, the servers are so nice and the quality of the sashimi is good. I order takeout from them often and have never been disappointed. The uni and hamachi in particular are always great. The only thing I wish they’d pay attention to more is their sushi rice. It’s overcooked and can feel dense and gelatinous as a result. It also doesn’t have a good balance between rice vinegar, salt and sugar. I’ll still order often, but if they can nail this very important detail, it would push them to the top of my list for sushi in Ann Arbor“

“Consistently good. Lots of great meals to choose from. The bento boxes for lunch are a big favorite, you get lots of food and a wide variety - a nibble of this, a few bits of that. It's fun. We keep coming back, this is my office's #1 choice for lunch.Vegetarian options: Most dishes have seafood or meat, but there are enough vegetarian options and they are delicious.“

“Great little sushi spot! Extremely impressed with the quality of the food for the price. $26 bucks for 2 salads and 3 rolls that were filling, delicious, and overall very satisfying. Service was excellent. Waitress was attentive and kind, as were the chefs. I would highly recommend this spot.“

“Came here on a chilly night which is why I ended up ordering the dumpling soup. The size of the bowl was alright for an appetizer and it came with two pieces of dumplings. The dumpling itself is fairly large but I was also hoping there would be more than just two dumplings. This is alright for an appetizer but would probably not order this again. I also got the Totoro tower which I enjoyed more than the soup. The tower was pretty filling, super flavorful, and I really like how they plated this dish with the layers of sauces. Came here during Umich's spring break so it wasn't busy and service was quick. Normally it can be pretty busy and we would have to wait 30min-1hour.“

“Sushi was great. I did have a roll with eel which confirmed that I prefer my eel smoked. Other than that, food came quickly, server was friendly, and the prices are fair.Vegetarian options: Definitely vegetarian options to choose fromParking: Small, limited parking“

“Had dinner with my wife and son and was absolutely amazing! We had so many options that we couldn't decide what to get. We ordered what we thought would have been more than enough. But to our surprise we ate everything. I've had lots of sushi and this was simply some of the best I've encountered. Delicately sliced sashimi with a hint of raw jalepeno....oh and ponzu. Fresh ingredients , great service , and Atmosphere made this a life long memory for us after a wonderful day in Ann Arbor. Thank you!Parking: Easily accessible and in close proximity to the front entrance.“

“Comfy little spot. Wonderful food. Very friendly staff and good sized sushi portions. I visited while in town for the Christmas holiday. I needed to get away from the family for abit (and the high calorie food) so this was a much needed sanity break. Would definitely go back the next time I'm in A2!“

“We've been coming to Sadako since 2004, and it's hands down the best sushi in Michigan. The tuna here is the freshest and best tasting I've had in the states and their rolls are generously sized and inexpensive. It's even worth the hassle of navigating downtown Ann Arbor during move in week like we're doing right now.“
