27 Best Japanese Restaurants near Fridley

“My family and I came here to enjoy the cuisine here. The price is affordable compared to other places. The dishes are okay, not too salty. But I don't like the sushi very much. Because the rice on the sushi portion is very big. The special thing here is a melted chocolate tower that my child really likes. In general, everything is okay.“

“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.“

“We ate there last night. My wife and I loved every bite and our server Jimmy was beyond welcoming and accommodating! I tried the tempura sushi and my wife ordered the steak and shrimp with veggies and noodles with a side of fried rice. Everything was perfectly cooked and soooo good!! It was honestly the best Asian food I have ever eaten. Fresh, flavorful and cooked to perfection. Seriously, try this place and ask for Jimmy as your server and thank me later! We sat on the restaurant side. They also have the grill where a chef prepares your food in front of you live. We also tried a steak appetizer that was delicious 😋“

“Very nice experience we all enjoyed definitely coming back!!! Everything was just perfect 🤩“

“I don’t remember which dish my wife and I got but it was delicious. Service was great.👌“

“Best matcha in the city! I have tried quite a few places in the Twin Cities and Cafe Yoto takes the cake for best matcha. You can tell the matcha is good quality and the atmosphere of the cafe/restaurant is lovely. I live out of the country but whenever I visit (which is almost every month or every other month) I always make time to stop here!“

“I needed a treat, and did I ever get one in my bag of takeout tonight from Midori’s Floating World Cafe (in their temporary Seward Cafe location). The dumplings, entrees, and dessert were exquisitely prepared, with flavorful sauces and broths. Glad I splurged on the Daifuku: it was a little work of edible art. This food woke all of my senses for spring. I’ll be back.“

“Really friendly staff and delicious sushi!“

“Love the food here- it’s my ‘treat yourself’ spot with solid ramen and great staff who are very helpful!“

“My family has eaten there a lot and the food quality has always been good. It is consistently good. Sushi is great as well as presented in an artistic way. Great neighbors place to enjoy lunch or dinner. I enjoy having a glass of wine with dinner too!“

“This is my favorite place to grab lunch on the weekdays. Quick and easy ordering through a kiosk. Food comes out quite quickly. I highly recommend the volcano roll, it’s an explosion of flavors in your mouth. Very fresh fish, friendly staff, and the music makes you want to dance!! For non sushi eaters- they have chicken options, the bang bang chicken bowl is another favorite.“

“The food was excellent! Probably one of the best! and the service provided by Brian and Riley were over the top superb. It was obvious that they loved working there and took such pride in doing it. So refreshing!!!“

“Great food!!! We've had both of the steak and chicken fried rice. As well as the steak and chicken hibachi with fried rice added.

They were delicious!!! The yum yum sauce & the spicy mayo (not very spicy to me in case someone doesn't like a lot of spice) really set the flavor of the food off nicely!!!

This time I got the Thai milk tea. It's pretty good. It's creamy & not as sweet as other places I've been. Sometimes the sweetness is overbearing. I didn't want the Boba so I can't tell you a comparison there.

I DEFINTELY recommend!!!“

“*uber eats review only*
I ordered one of their lunch specials which was 3 sushi rolls with a side salad or soup
For $14 it's a great deal
Hiked the spicy salmon roll the best
It appeared freshly made and stored nicely in the box with enough wasabi and soy sauce! Chopsticks were also included(not the ones in the picture those are my own)“

“great food and good staff“

“10/10 all the way around. My family of 4 came on a Thursday night around 9:45ish, the place was busy but we were seated almost immediately. The atmosphere was booming with a younger crowd throughout the place, but still had sprinkles of families with babies seated as well. They have a sushi bar with multiple stools as well as tables & booths. We ordered from the Happy Hour Menu, very well worth it! Sushi and apps were cheap and delicious! Service was excellent and staff was friendly! We spent $60 for 5 full rolls, 2 piece salmon, and 2 appetizers. The sushi was fresh and was served quickly! Absolutely best part is that they are open late!! 11:00 is the latest I’ve seen a sushi place offer a dine in option that actually has great prices, service and atmosphere!! Will definitely be back!“

“This is by far my favorite place to eat. I usually pop in for lunch 1-3 times a week. The servers are wonderful and the sushi is the best i've had. My go-to's are the crazy tuna rolls and mn rolls. I recommend this place every chance I can.“

“Not all Osakas are created equal, but the Roseville Osaka is a gem. They have the most affordable and tasty hibachi in the city (that I know of) and their sit-down sushi side of the house is excellent. The sushi is always tasty and super affordable. They have a ton of fish combos to choose from. Excellent lunch spot as well. Great ambiance, with a koi pond that my child is obsessed with. They even have a nice bar if you just want to come in for a cocktail and maybe an appetizer. On the hibachi side, the chefs are engaging and fun and the restaurant doesn't nickle and dime you for every side like Benihana does. Remember to tip your staff!“

“I am in love with One Two Three Sushi! If you are looking for fresh food with the perfect portion size, that matches an amazing price; this is your place.“

“Great experience at Joy Kitchen! First time stopping in on Valentine’s- they were packed with takeouts and dine-in service still ran smoothly. Our food came out with no wait and was delicious. Staff were also friendly & attentive despite being busy.“

“This has been the best sushi I’ve found in the Roseville area. The sushi is a little pricey but you get the quality food you pay for, and the rest of the food is well priced and high quality. Second favorite dish is their lo mein, I like it best with the roast pork, very delicious and great for leftovers.“

“Absolutely fantastic food consistently!! Crazy Monkey Roll is a favorite and Ginger Mushroom with Chicken.“

“As a Japanese person who is born and raised in Japan, this restaurant is the most authentic Japanese restaurant in Minnesota. Since I started to live in Minnesota, I had struggled to find good Japanese restaurants that satisfy my tongue. However, this restaurant really changed my life in Minnesota. The food, service, atmosphere, everything is amazing and perfect here. The price is really affordable for broke international students like me. Location is also very good.
I deeply appreciate this restaurant. Without Kinzo udon, I couldn’t survive in Minnesota.“

“Ordered sashimi, a specialist roll and a miso soup through UberEats. It was here quickly, the sashimi was of exceptional quality (very fresh, fatty, melt in your mouth - I eat a lot of raw fish and am pretty picky about freshness) and the roll was delicious and beautiful. Also love that they're open relatively late. Will order again!“

“Kenzi and her besti are the best servers I have had since precovid! Kenzi was varey friendly personable attentive and I really injoyed are conversation.How ever the Mens bathroom was descusting it smelled reely bad and needs some paint and reparirs along with a good deep cleaning.almost makes me woder what the kitchen is like? And if the emploeys wash there hands? However if i Owned the place i would give her a rasie and promation. People could learn alot from her and she will have a blessed futcher. Also the out side of the resterant could use some work but aging i want to thank kinzi for an unforgetable dinning experance that you do not find anymore.when i go back next time i want to hear about her raise and promotion and if not i will find here a beter job personaly becues she dezervise it“

“Yum yum yum. I rarely come here as I don't like trying to park downtown but my coworker had leftovers from Daruma for lunch which smelled amazing and she said it was worth going downtown so I figured, yes, it was. Their hibachi is delicious. The meat is flavorful and the fried rice is awesome. So glad I picked up take out. Street parking was actually quite easy.“
