13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Apex

“Delicious and friendly. Highly recommended“

“Great sushi. One of the best in the area. Wish their lunch hours extended a bit longer.“

“Friendly staff and great food! The sushi, soup, and goyza were amazing. We will definitely return!“

“Cozy little place with great food!! Their garlic ramen was amazing!!“

“The food was delicious, presented attractively, and authentic. The portion sizes were a bit small for the price, but we just got to try a few more appetizers. Some in my party were not familiar with Japanese food, so it was a good way to introduce a range of various dishes and options. The staff was very friendly and helpful, with great recommendations. The parking lot is a little strange, be aware that you can't drive around the building.“

“Ramen and sushi were both outstanding! Prompt, friendly service. Highly recommend!“

“This has been my favorite restaurant for years! Everything is delicious (I could eat ten of those salads with ginger dressing) and this is the only place I’ve ever been to that serves zaru! I highly recommend and I bring everyone I know here!“

“I’ve already been to Hibachi 88 twice in the past two weeks, and I can honestly say it’s quickly becoming a favorite! The steak hibachi and chicken skewers are amazing. Tender, flavorful, and cooked just right. The portions are generous, and for only about $17 you get a LOT of food, which is such a great value. Both times I left full and impressed. Definitely recommend if you’re craving hibachi without breaking the bank!“

“Pleasantly surprised at how good my lunch was today! At first I thought the menu lacked variety but the quality and taste really made up for it! I ordered the hibachi steak lunch and a side of miso soup and it was made Fresh! The veggies were so crunchy and the steak was cooked just right. The miso soup came boiling hot and everything just tasted not too greasy. The portion size was large enough for me to have leftovers for the next day. For $14 you can’t beat it. Highly recommend to check them out! By the way the decor is adorable! Super instagram worthy and it’s a husband and wife shop too!“

“Some of the best sushi I've had since being in Japan. Even the rice was outstanding, as it should be. The service was also excellent. Our waitress was knowledgable and very helpful in designing a progression to get a good selection and variety. One of our party had a shellfish allergy and she was able to get a selection put together that accommodated that allergy but did not sacrifice the overall experience.“

“Always on point. Restaurant is always clean, food is always fresh and I have never had a problem with anything that I’ve ordered. This has been my go to hibachi spot. Thank you for being consistent in your food quality and your service you are AMAZING!!“

“Excellent food! The sushi was fresh (salmon nigiri was delish), homemade dressing for the salad, great tempura, yummy sesame chicken and large portions. I felt the prices were reasonable for the quality of food and portion size. Some meals could easily be shared along with an appetizer. Nice, clean, peaceful ambiance, great for a date night or group outing. Outstanding service. We can’t wait to come back!“

“Quick, food was fresh and really good. Still currently take out only but we sat at a table outside and enjoyed“
