Japanese Restaurants near Alpine

“We had such a great experience at Kiku! I took my niece for hibachi and she had a blast. She was a little scared when the fire flared up, but she couldn’t stop smiling and ended up loving every minute of it. The chef was entertaining, the food was delicious, and the whole atmosphere made it a fun, memorable night. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Found this place because I craved both sushi and bibimbap. So glad I found this place. The owner who also helps serve is super nice and attentive. My husband and I are vegetarians and she's always very thoughtful on what we can have. Food is good, as always“

“Best sushi restaurant I have EVER been to. It is VERY affordable, the service is amazing!!!! I went with my wife and my son, and they gave use free desert and food for my son. I will be recommending everyone I know to come here. 10/10✨✨✨“

“One of the best brunch spots in Upper Manhattan! The Latin music sets the perfect vibe, the drinks are on point, and the food is absolutely delicious. The service is super friendly, making sure you have a great time. Perfect place to go with friends, enjoy some music, and just vibe. Definitely my new favorite spot. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent quality sashimi and sushi. The gozen set plus a couple hand rolls a la carte made for a satisfying lunch. The edemame stood out because it had a grilled flavor and was well-seasoned, unlike any I have had before. Curious to try some of their other dishes besides sushi.“

“Amazingly fresh sushi. Traditional Japanese restaurant with great customer service. Expensive but worth it; better quality than any other sushi place around.“

“Was visiting my godchild and she wanted to eat here. The staff was amazing as was the ramen. Cozy and cool. We went for lunch on a Saturday and we were seated right away. I would definitely go back“

“This place is quickly becoming a go to spot for me. Everything is absolutely delicious! But my biggest thing is their chawanmushi. It's been years, decades since I found a restaurant that serves it.

Parking is a bit of a hassle, but totally worth it.“

“One of the best sushi spots I’ve been to! The food is fresh and delicious, and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely loved my experience at Uncle Fatty's Sushi Bubble! 🍣✨ This spot is a hidden gem — incredibly affordable without sacrificing quality or flavor. The sushi was fresh and delicious, and everything came out super fast, which is perfect for a quick lunch or casual dinner. The staff were welcoming and genuinely friendly, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. If you're looking for great sushi with top-notch service, this place is a must-try!“

“Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Wish we lived closer.“

“I absolutely Love This Place. I come here every chance i get, i love the food and the chefs provide cool entertainment 💪🏻“

“Our favorite sushi restaurant ever! And if you're not into sushi, there is something for you too - tempura, hibachi, etc. So very delicious and they are so nice there!“

“I didn’t see any lunch specials on the website so I called and they did have them and were super helpful walking me through them and helping me place my order. Great spot to grab sushi for lunch then head back into the office, and it tasted amazing!“

“I stopped by for a late lunch take out and I was pleasantly surprised.
First, the interior while not large is cozy and very inviting, complete with nice Japanese wall art, and even a stove heater in one section with many Japanese ceramics like tea pots on display.
I ordered a Chicken teriyaki lunch box (bento) - (Entree, $14.50, 4/5) - I was happy with the heft of the bag and upon opening it, food was hot and fresh. California rolls were good and 2 pieces of shumai were crispy and nicely seasoned. Rice was the right portion and chicken was fresh-tasting with good quantity of teriyaki veggies. Some pieces were a bit tough and the seasoning overall did not really permeate, but I didn't mind. I mean, it's lunch special so you can't really expect too much. I was nicely satisfied with this bento - not too much, not too little, and at a great price.

I used to do yoga right next door for years and had never gone in, but now I would like to dine in because they had that nice, cozy and authentic Japanese sushi house vibe that was so inviting + of course, good tasting food at reasonable price. I'll be back!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Otter Fine Sushi & Beyond is absolutely incredible! The variety of sushi is amazing, everything is super fresh, and the service is excellent. I’m so glad I found this spot in Fort Lee—what a gem! The $40 unlimited deal is unbeatable and probably the best you’ll find anywhere. Truly an outstanding experience every time. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent experience from start to finish. The service was stellar, so warm and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious (highly recommend the spicy tuna tartare), and the omakase was outstanding. This was truly one of the best dining experiences my partner and I have had in New Jersey.“

“I just gotta shout out this amazing Asian spot in the Bronx! If you're looking for a cozy, welcoming vibe for your crew, this is the place. Whether it's a family dinner, catching up with friends, or even a casual date night, the atmosphere is straight-up warm and inviting.
The menu is crazy big – we're talking rolls, sashimi, ramen, bento boxes,Chinese food.No matter what you're in the mood for, they got you. And let me tell you, the fish is so fresh, it tastes like it just came out the water. Portions? Don't even worry. You're leaving full, maybe even with a box for later.
The best part? The prices are seriously good for what you get. Real talk, it's hard to find quality like this without breaking the bank here in the Bronx.
This spot is a legit hidden gem. Great food, big portions, friendly faces, and your wallet won't hate you. What more could you ask for? 5 stars, no question. My new go-to!“

“Great service, delish is food! Never disappoints.“

“So good . When you order takeout fried food, they wait to the last minute of your delivery time to put the food in the fryer. Don't complain if you have to wait a few extra minutes . To get hot crisp food instead of soggy cold stuff that steamed it self cold in the togo containers. LOVE THEM.“

“Omakase sushi is best quality and everything is authentic and excellent. Clean soothing atmosphere and great service“

“Love This place !“

“We had dinner at Matsu on Friday......its a little gem in Hillsdale. We were pleasantly surprised, by the quality and quantity of the food. The Staff went out of their way to accommodate us. They very friendly and warm. It was a most enjoyable dinner. We have ordered food to takeout but hadn't been inside the restaurant since the pandemic.... We will definitely go again soon. It was a great experience and we both recommend you give it a try!“

“The Umami Bomb is exactly that. the bomb (1990). So good back to pre-pandemic portions and tasty ingredients. Thank God you exist.“

“absolutely delicious service was great .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤“

“Fujinoya has been my family’s top favorite Japanese spot in all of Westchester - aside from Sazan in Ardsley - boasting a delicious authentic menu, kind Japanese staff, and a cozy vibe that’s small yet inviting. The seasonal offerings are always a standout, including the sukiyaki hot pot that’s my all-time fave! 😋 highly recommended“

“I’ve been to Star Sushi several times now, and every single visit has been great. The owner, Anthony, and his staff are always super friendly and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers — it’s the kind of place where they remember you and your favorites.

The fish is always fresh and the rolls are consistently delicious! My go to is the Star Tower. The amount of fish is very generous and it blends perfectly well with the rice, avocados, roe and sauces. It’s honestly one of the best sushi spots around, both for the food and the people!“

“Món ăn Nhật Bản ngon nhất tôi từng nếm thử. Tôi rất khuyến khích. Best japanese food I have ever tasted. I highly recommend.“

“Was super excited to try some rolls tonight after a 12 hour work day, but unfortunately after 45 minutes of waiting patiently inside for them to be prepared they still were not ready and hadn’t even been started to be made. Staff not entirely apologetic. Asked for refund and won’t be back.“

“Ordered takeout and I realized after getting to the hotel that they got my order wrong. It ended up being so good that I wasn’t even upset about the error.

To start, I love the menu and really appreciate the variety of options for simple rolls (healthy, limited/no filler ingredients) versus the usual sole focus on an array of specialty rolls. Additionally, the portions were perfect, especially the rice to protein ratio, and the prices are incredibly fair.

Lastly, i’m a fanatic for avocado maki rolls, and the avocado was so perfectly RIPE that it was borderline melting in my mouth. It might sound silly, but I was in heaven lol.

Place also looked super clean when I came in to pick up my order. Would absolutely love to come and dine-in next time.“

“The Nagasaki Champon is our new favorite. My wife and I had a very pleasant Sunday dinner. Haven’t had a meal this good in a long time. We were supposed to have dinner here some few weeks ago but the Fort Lee-Pal Park traffic congestion gets really bad. Last time we were here was in 2021!!. Now we can’t wait to go back. We also had the Salmon Roll and Yakitori Chicken, Pork, Beef and Mushroom wrapped in Bacon.“

“We like this place a lot! Delicious food😋,great service!😀👌“

“Awesome atmosphere and music ….and the food is a “10” out of “10”!!! Delicious !!!!! The octopus is a definite must have!!!!!“

“We always order takeout through doordash. Yesterday, we dine in to celebrate my daughter's birthday. The restaurant was very clean and tidy. The food was good as always, especially the crispy spicy tuna which we love most. We had a good time.“

“A cozy and relaxing dining experience with authentic Japanese cuisine. What I enjoy most are the surprise complimentary appetizers that appear with sometime other later gratuitous treats. The entire staff including servers are genuinely welcoming. A small but relaxing ambiance. Enjoy the experience!“

“First time trying after a friend’s recommendation. We ordered five plates. Wow. Loved every bite. Their food is fresh and delicious. The vegetable gyoza was the best I’ve had. Warm reception at the front counter, even for a take out order. Tucked in the middle of one of the quaintest blocks in New York. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Food is very good. The sweet potato rolls were good as well as the sashimi app. Sashimi arrived still cold which is a big plus. Chicken teriyaki with fried rice was also good. Everything tasted fresh which I was happy with. No real complaints there.

Only thing to mention is the Chicken teriyaki. It had way much rice and not enough protein. Other than that I’d order again. Probably avoid the teriyaki next time.👍“

“One of the best Ramen Bars I’ve ever been to. The flavors across the menu are unreal. The Spicy Miso Ramen w/ Pork Belly in particular was one of the best soup broths I’ve ever tasted. The service staff could not have been more friendly and courteous. The quaint setting and atmosphere lend themselves to almost feel like sitting at one big family style dinner table.“

“I don’t know about the rest of you all, but this is by far, the best Japanese Cuisine place in the Area. Some of the best items from their menu The Angry Dragon Sushi, The Shrimp tempura, and the Spicy Salmon rolls.

Also try the gyoza and the amazing Kani salad (regular or spicy)

Also the presentation is outstanding, and don’t forget to try their amazing Thai ice Tea which is homemade. 100% recommended. 🫶🏻

PS: ask for their Fried Oreo Dessert, you won’t regret it😊“

“Always delicious & enjoyable. My ‘go to’ place when friends come to town.“

“This is the Best sushi restaurant. Jimmy is a master sushi chef. The fish is so fresh and delicious. You must give it a try you will not be disappointed. 🍣🍤🍸“

“New owner!

Very nice atmosphere, super comfortable. The food is delicious and menu is affordable for the quality of the food you are getting. My husband and I had the Agedashi Tofu, Pork Sirloin Katsu, Tuna Kimbap, and Potato Croquette. For dessert we had the Mango Bingsoo.

The bingsoo is probably the best in the area! Full of delicious mango, and syrup. It’s very tall too, so it’s a good deal.

The owner is very nice. Always provided a quick hot water refill.

It’s really very comfortable here. I could see myself sitting here for a while to just decompress. Will come back!“

“Great food and ambiance! You must try it!!!“

“The spicy ramen was amazing, the people were very kind to me, and I felt loved for the first time since my parents left me on the cold, Tony porch of the California fire station. It was thundering and raining and I crawled into miso for protection. They have raised ever since I am now Superman. This is my true origin story.“

“My favorite sushi place ! Not only do they service the most delicious rolls, they treat you like family ! Awesome cocktails and great atmosphere ! Check out the OMG roll or fiesta !“

“Thanks Nihon Kai for delivering my sushi you satisfied my cravings. This place has the most super nice staff., highly recommended. Their sushi is so good. Highly recommended this place to anyone looking to dine in around Bergenfield, New Jersey“

“So delicious food 🥘 🍱 🍲 and the service is kind and friendly, would recommend to everyone 🫶“

“Best Sushi in Yonkers. All the rolls are absolutely fresh and decadent. The quesadillas are excellent as well. A fun mix of Sushi & Mexican. A must go to if ever in Yonkers. I even dare say it is the best sushi in the Bronx. They are located less than 1/3 of a mile from the Bronx border and they deliver to the surrounding neighborhood in the Bronx. The guy who took our order is very amicable. The sushi chef prepares the rolls right in front of you. It was a great experience.“

“Truly a one-of-a-kind experience. My fiancé and I had an incredible time. The portions were generous, and the flavor profiles were outstanding. We were genuinely blown away by the quality of the meats and Chef Chris’s distinctive style.

Be sure to take a photo of each plate and savor what you’re eating—you’ll definitely want another serving and might not remember every detail! My favorite that day was the sea bream, though I almost feel bad singling it out because everything was spectacular—even the miso soup.

Jay, who is part of the ownership team, was exceptionally welcoming and made everyone feel comfortable and fully immersed in the experience.“

“Recently tried the Las Vegas Sushi midweek lunch special. The Hwe-Dup-Bap was well made, with fresh ingredients, and served with miso soup. We will be returning.“
