50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Fairfield

“I love this place. My sister and I try to go at least once or twice a month. The food is great, the quality is awesome, and the service is good. You don't have to wait too long for your food. My little sister usually gets her California and shrimp tempura rolls. I get the rainbow roll and the O.M.G roll but everything we've tried is crazy good. I would 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.“

“One of the best Chinese delivery places near me in Pine Brook. The food tastes fresh.“

“Had a great time with a great group of people“

“I wish I took before pictures of our food. We stopped in after a very long day out and about and the food was so good that we left feeling energized. We got the ocean roll, pork buns, tonkotsu ramen and a spicy tuna onigiri. Everything was delicious!!

The ocean roll was fresh and tasty, the pork buns were just delicious, the ramen was so so amazing- the pork was tender, the broth was so flavorful and all the add ins just did wonders for the the flavor and the spicy tuna onigiri was hands down one of the best we’ve had.

The service was also great! The staff was so friendly and the atmosphere of the restaurant was on par and so cute! We cannot wait to come back and are so happy we found our new go to spot 🤗

“We've been to a bunch of places in the nearby towns that serve the same types of food - boba, ramen, sushi, poke - Pokestop does each of them better than any of the other local places that specialize in only one. Friendly staff, delicious food, I would give it 6 stars if I could.“

“The food is top notch. From the soup to the sushi. Even the ice cream is delicious. What really bothers me though is the service. There is a 90 minute time limit which I get but when you are rushed to get out by an hour that’s not right. Also when you’re hounding tables waiting to literally take a plate because you have nothing else to do that’s a problem. Finally when you’re coming up to tables and asking them for platters back because you don’t have enough supposedly that’s not good either. Last night I was hounded constantly. Twice I had people tell me to move my sushi to my paper plate because they needed the platter. May I suggest buying more platters. Love the food and yes I know I’ll be back but the service was ridiculous in your face. Don’t come here for date night because they don’t leave you alone“

“This place is a gem.
The best time to go is at around 3:00. The restaurant was virtually empty when we arrived and we were seated immediately.
As soon as we ordered our food, it was on our table within 7 minutes.
Our waiter was very kind!
I highly recommend the Rainbow roll and the Kinya Ramen bowl.
The serving sizes are large and more than enough for one person.
My boyfriend and I plan to return for the excellent food and upstanding service.

Gordon Ramsey would be silent at one bite of the delicious goodness on the Kinya menu. Incredibly tasty. -A Hell’s Kitchen Reference“

“just delicious!!“

“Owned by a married couple, they are both super welcoming when you get inside. They are very kind and make you feel like you're at home because the chef cooks right in front of you and it's pretty cozy in there.

Amazing sushi! It's seriously the best that I have had in my life. The food is fresh with very good quality and delicious flavor. I feel like no other restaurant/place does it like Ino Sushi. The place is also quiet and calm.

When we were leaving, my almost 2 year old brother hugged the owners and they are just soooo nice. Love it here!

Kid-friendliness: VERY kind to kids!“

“Excellent food and especially service. I was compelled to write this review because my family's server this evening actually ran down the block to make sure we got the leftovers we had wrapped up to go and left on the table. Thank you!!“

“I own a business in the same strip next to Sushi Nigiri. I have been ordering Sushi from there since it's opening. I have never written a review until now, but I must say, this place is AWESOME. I'm used to New York City sushi (I live in Manhattan) and this is just as good as most places. I highly recommend this place and I wish this place does more business!“

“I had an incredible dining experience at this sushi place!
The food was fresh and absolutely delicious, with the fish tasting as if it was just caught.
The service was excellent attentive and friendly, making sure everything was perfect throughout the meal.
The highlight of the evening, though, was the mango panna cotta. It was the perfect way to end a delightful dinner—refreshing, smooth, and bursting with flavor. I cannot wait to return! Highly recommended!“

“I had the seafood tempura. So much food that I had to take it home. Have to go back to try more menu items.“

“Woman who takes orders is absolutely the worst. It’s my birthday she won’t even give a single smile or have any sense of being personable. You need to replace her or your reputation is gonna go down the drain. Ruined my birthday lunch. I had a feeling she might be awful every day cause this has happened before so we called ahead to warn it was my birthday and they assured we should come. Regret it! Seriously get rid of her!!!!!!“

“Kyoto is the reason why I started loving sushi!!! They have lots of dishes with cooked fish for sushi (as my stomach cannot tolerate raw fish) and they absolutely nailed it. I keep on forgetting the name of the dishes I ordered but every time me and my husband go there we show them the pic below and they gave us the same order ? thanks guys ❤️“

“This is such a cozy cute place to grab some sushi! We did the all you can eat sushi, every single one we tried was amazing. Everything tasted fresh especially the raw fish! I would definitely recommend coming here! I wish I had taken more photos since the sushi also was presented so beautifully too!“

Vegetarian options: The menu offers a lot of options for vegetarians in rolls with avocado, cucumber, mango, and others. Also, the noodles soup with veggies is of very generous quantity. The broth in the bowl is very flavorful.
The bottomless hot tea is great!“

“Sarku has been a staple of food courts for as long as I can remember. To be honest, the sushi is really good! We ordered at the front and they made it fresh on the spot. The chicken teriyaki is also very satisfying if you want a healthier option for lunch, it comes with rice and mixed vegetables.“

“To start with, the service was fantastic. everyone was attentive to our needs but at no time did we feel like we were being pressured. The food was all delicious and the pricing for main dishes and sushi was very reasonable. The menu is very creative and the dishes are presented beautifully. Definitely worth trying and I would eat there again.“

“Delicious sushi! Good prices. Lots to pick from - we enjoyed a bit of everything from the sushi menu. They have a few tempura rolls, a few naruto rolls (cucumber wrapped, no rice), and a whole 2 pages for regular and special rolls. I enjoyed everything my table tried. Lots of variety to find something for you!

Lost a star for me on service - vibe is nice but we waited a while to order and receive our check even though there were very few guests dining in on a Friday night. Seems like a great takeout choice otherwise!“

“We've been meaning to to try so many of the new restaurants in the area. We finally got here for a late lunch today. Not surprisingly on a Thursday at 2PM and snowing, we had the place to ourselves. It was fortunate because the woman who took care of us explained everything to us in detail. I wasn't familiar with the Kurobuta pork. Apparently it's known as the, "Kobe beef of pork." All their pork come from Berkshire pigs. They come from a farm in Jersey. I'm guessing North Jersey. (Lot's of cool info if you Google them) Cooking is done using White charcoal which is used in traditional Japanese cooking. We started with the crispy cauliflower. It had crispy shallots & tahini vinegarette on them. They were delicious! Then the Shanghai bao. Filling was pork. (naturally) So delicious and juicy! When you slice them in half watch for the juice to squirt! We ordered six skewers. Two with pork jowel (cheek) Two regular pork and two fish. Again, delicious. i also had a bowl of spicy miso ramen. Our server explained how the broth is simmered for eight hours with pig bones and marrow. I could tell as the broth was very rich! That was it for us. We were both very full and i even took half of my ramen. We can't wait to return and bring friends! Highly recommend! ✌️“

“This was my first visit to Blue Wazabi I Loved It!! Large menu selection and wonderful food and portion size. Definitely, will visit again.“

“I have been coming here for dinner with my friend since 2016.
The food is consistently excellent. We normally get two or three different types of sushi & a hot dish. Favorites include -seaweed salad, gyoza, tropical roll and chicken /beef/ shrimp teriyaki. 🍣“

“I wish I could give 4.5, my sushi rolls were fantastic and beautifully displayed. My husband's dish, beef soba noodles, was great but not excellent. Staff were very friendly and the food came out very quickly Overall wonderful experience!“

“The minute I walked in I knew I was in an awesome place. The staff was wonderful and the food was unbelievable. My girlfriend and I need to go back soon as there is too many things I want to try.“

“Nice place. Friendly staff. Good came out within minutes. Seating arrangements were.. humble. The food was delicious. The amount you get for the lunch special is amazing. Definitely recommend that. With extra chicken. Sushi was okay. Not too much of a fan but was still enjoyable. Great for quick bite.“
