6 Best Japanese Restaurants in Bozeman

“Izakaya was the best food experience I've ever had and probably one of the top 10 experiences I've had in general. The kitchen staff was engaged and helpful (Paul, Maddi, and Trevor were amazing, but also shout out to the rest of the kitchen), and the food was out of this world.

Paul obviously cares deeply about his craft and made sure we knew what we were eating and where on the fish it came from, and it was really cool to watch him work right in front of us (especially given the fact that the sushi was out-of-this-world). Trevor was super fun and kept everyone engaged through the whole night while also making sure we were supplied on anything we needed - not to mention he is an impressive force in the kitchen and everything they brought out was great. Maddi was also incredible and made the best mocktails I've ever had (and it's not even close) - each of them was innovative and delicious.

The food itself was amazing and there wasn't a single course that I disliked. It's near impossible to pick a favorite because they all felt like stand-outs. I am traveling for the summer so I booked a solo reservation and they treated me like family and made sure that I was never bored or left out. Montana is a beautiful place with lots to do and still Izakaya's omakase experience is near the top of my list. If you are on the fence about this experience: make the reservation, it's worth it!“

“Hands down the best sushi in Bozeman! A great blend of traditional rolls and creative combinations that pop in your mouth. Their ramen is excellent too!“

“I take my family to Wasabi in Bozeman for birthdays and special occasions because the food is amazing every single time. From the fresh sushi rolls to the hibachi steak and chicken, there’s always something everyone loves, and you can tell the ingredients are top quality.

We usually make a reservation because it gets busy, especially on weekends, and the atmosphere is lively and fun — perfect for a celebration. The hibachi dishes are always cooked perfectly, and the sushi is fresh and flavorful with lots of options to choose from.

The staff are friendly and make every visit feel special, whether it’s a big family dinner or just a night out. It’s comfortable for both kids and adults, and it’s a great place to make memories together.

Overall, this is one of our go-to spots for celebrating because the food is delicious, the portions are generous, and it always hits the mark. Highly recommend if you want a fun meal and amazing food in Bozeman.“

“Suffering from a cold/flu and had my husband pick up few different dishes. Amazing and just what I’m craving!“

“Love this restaurant. The mushrooms were amazing“

“The sushi is great! We are regulars here. However, I recommend that you make reservations if you are going for dinner. At the recent visit, the restaurant was crowded and our server seemed to barely stop at the table--he was so busy. The restaurant itself is loud. Normally, we try to go off-peak times. But the rolls keep us returning.“
