21 Best Japanese Restaurants near Walled Lake

“Delicious entrees, I had Katsu Curry Udon, which was flavorful and well prepared. My family had an assortment of fresh sushi that was also very tasty. Excellent experience overall.

Tonight, 3/14/26 I had spicy miso ramen. Which was spicy without being too much, and featured the standard ramen addins [charshu, fish cake, and egg] instead of seafood which seems common in many spicy ramen dishes. Again, the sushi and entrees my family ordered were well received. Sushi Den also has really tasty miso soup, which seems an afterthought in many Japanese restaurants.“

“Great Authentic Japanese Sushi in Michigan.“

“The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly, my favorite restaurant in the area.“

“10/10
This is some of the best food I have ever had!! If I were the type I would call it life-changing. But I needed a nap once I had finished my meal. I've worked with Japanese companies in the US for a long time and have had a very difficult time finding an authentic Japanese restaurant. The specials are ALWAYS great! The people who work here seem genuinely happy and they are the nicest people. And the prices are great!!“

“Great sushi but terrible service. The seating is cramped, and the wait staff is completely inattentive. I had to beg for napkins and eventually flag down the host to get my check because our server disappeared taking care of everyone else! They tried to compensate for the long wait with free ice cream for my daughter, but the lack of basic service makes it hard to recommend this place on a weekend.“

“My boyfriend and I ate here for the first time yesterday, and was very pleased with the service. Our waiter, Mark (I hope I’m remembering correctly), was very courteous and pleasant. He went above and beyond what was expected. Our waters stayed filled, and although it took a while for our food to come out, it was worth the wait. It was beautifully displayed and was very yummy. It is likely we will come here again!!“

“Food was okay. The waitress was not friendly at all. It was my groups first time visiting so we werent sure the flow of the place (writing down your own order, straws already set up, etc) when we asked questions her reaction was as if we were the biggest burden. She never came to check back on us and we had other friendly staff that did and refilled our water. The drinks were extremely flat, even after we told them the refills were still flat.“

“Great place to stop for fresh, authentic, high-quality Japanese food. Never disappoints.“

“What a find! I felt like I found a secret spot in NYC! Ordering system is easy. I suggest getting in line and taking a slip for what looks good and then pare down your choices at the end of the line instead of going back and forth. The servings are large, fresh, and delish! Best cafeteria ever!!“

“0 out of 5 did not have a good experience it was a long piece of hair in my food and they only took 2 dollars off i was disgusted after eating the majority or my food couldn’t finish and the manager response is this isnt our hair the hair was longgggg and curly i have braids the waiter was really nice but the manager wasnt he even brought the plate back to the table with the hair“

“I'm in town for a buisness trip and wanted to try something unique! I ordered the Katsu chicken curry and egg salad sandwich and it was delicious 😋 the staff is friendly and the order was prepared fast . Everything tasted great 👍“

“We felt transported back to a cozy Japanese Izakaya here - definitely a hidden gem - the chicken katsu and sushi were great.
Food was fast, affordable, and with friendly service.
If you’re looking for more Americanized sushi probably not your best bet, but a great spot for one of the more authentic Japanese meals you can have available in this area“

“So good. It's a place that's probably flying under the radar because of its unassuming exterior. The seafood was so fresh. 🥰“

“My favorite Japanese restaurant I’ve ever been to. Wow, I’m so glad I tried it! The teriyaki chicken was delicious. I loved the tempura udon, it was fantastic! Very cozy interior, reasonably priced, great service. Can’t recommend this place enough.“

“This is a family owned restaurant and our experience was wonderful. We were greeted and seated simultaneously and expeditiously. The young male server was very attentive and answered any and all our questions-and I had a lot of them. I also didn’t know the sushi role I got was uncooked, they were happy to replace it with something more satisfactory. It was my first time trying dumplings and OMG it was a 10/10!!!! I DEFINITELY will come again!!“

“I was fasting and needed something quick so I could catch up with my class. I ordered four rolls and told them I was in a rush, and they had my entire order ready in just seven minutes. The service was amazing and they were very responsive and helpful. I really appreciated how fast they worked and how kind they were about it. Great experience overall.“

“Alana provided excellent service during our visit to Nara. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. She checked on us regularly, kept our drinks refilled, and was always pleasant and professional. Her positive attitude and great customer service made our dining experience even more enjoyable. It’s clear she cares about her guests and takes pride in her work. Thank you, Alana, for making our visit such a great one!“

“First time. Food was fine. Atmosphere is issue. It’s basically a carry out place either some tables. Do it really lacks s any personality. Worst is that they have a doorbell so whenever someone goes or goes it rings. As in every ten seconds. Could not even chat it was so annoying and loud. I mean don’t you see the people come In. Lastly the five in business is an afterthought“

“i will update as i try the menu. (i dont use soy sauce)

green river roll 10/10 - salmon was very yummy and a little fatty. I liked it

California roll - 10/10 crunchy , yummy , classic

spicy tuna 6/10 - I love tuna but it was not very spicy or seasoned. I didnt taste much flavor“

“The kindest staff I've ever come into contact with by milestones! The food was amazing, wonderfully priced, and the portions were perfect! I absolutely loved that the owner took time to come and see how things were AND give us some insight to some things on the menu. Ex: they create their own sauce there and it's delicious! I cannot wait to go back!“

“The food and the service here was so good, the man working the front of house was so nice. We started with the croquettes, I got the volcano roll and my partner got the bryan roll but we both tried each others, and then we split an octopus nigiri because we both wanted to try it! At the end the man working the front brought us each a mochi ice cream. Will be going back next time I'm in Farmington“
