36 Best Japanese Restaurants near Marlboro

“Tough to go wrong here. Not the best you can get but definitely the best you can get for the money. Parking lot is awkward. Wouldn't even try to park next to the restaurant. Go behind the next cluster of stores next to it. Half priced sushi from open to close. I will not say a bad thing about the sushi vs the cost. Also got gyoza-couldve been a little crispier. 4 items including 2 spicy crab rolls for less than $25. Tough to beat“

“We have been ordering from here for over a year now, after trying so many places around here this one hit all of things I look for in a Chinese take out place. The food is delicious EVERY time. We have ordered so maby things...its all good. They actually have their own delivery drivers, which is rare nowadays, they are very accomodàting with regards to special requests and substitutions. They are also very REASONABLY PRICED for this area. Lastly, their complimentary fried noodles are not those thin generic ones. I think they make their own and they are very good. 🙂“

“We stopped in for dinner this evening (night before Thanksgiving) and we absolutely loved both the food and the service!

We had the kani salad & green salad, the fried shrimp appetizer, salmon sushi, and several special rolls - everything was fresh and very tasty with great portions!

And I would be remiss if I did not mention that our server, Chen, was an integral part of the experience and the enjoyment of our meal! She is a very welcoming host and lively conversationalist who really takes an interest in her work and her customers.

This was our first time dining here and we will certainly be back (and often)!

Parking: Parking was easy, they have plenty of spaces!“

“Fantastic food! Kids loved it too!“

“I had heard so many good things about Nikko's so I stopped by for a take out meal the other day. From the time I walked through the door, I had a great experience. The decor is really nice, the restaurant clean and the people working there are even nicer and very helpful. I ordered the seafood hibachi entree. The smell was so good I couldn't wait to get home to eat it. I wasn't disappointed. The meal was delicious, plentiful and made with FRESH ingredients“

“The food was delicious, more than you can eat. The cook was very entertaining!!!“

“I don't understand how they have the ratings they do. Their sushi and milk teas are amazing!!! The workers are quiet and to themselves, but they're not rude. They do an excellent job at providing what you need. And they're fast. I come here a few times a month. Def worth coming here!!“

“We have been ordering take-out from Rainbow for two years. The sushi is consistently fresh, service is excellent and delivery is quick. Today we ordered steak hibachi for the first time; it was delicious. Even our son who is a picky eater cleaned his plate!“

“First time going here and it was great our Hibachi grill guy was fun. As for food , salad and dressing tased fresh and dressing was delicious , miso soup was very good , fried rice and vegetables extremely tasty really enjoyed them and we enjoyed our steak. Of course icing on cake is it’s a byob!

Kid-friendliness: They had a kids menu and our kids enjoyed it all.“

“My husband and I stopped at Eastern Sushi on our way back to the city from Atlantic City—and wow, we were seriously impressed. I had the Golden Salmon Roll (swapped the tobiko for masago) and it was super fresh with really high-quality fish. My husband got the hibachi scallops, which came out piping hot and perfectly cooked. Honestly, the food here is better than some spots we’ve tried in Manhattan. The restaurant itself isn’t fancy, but it’s very clean and the service was great. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in the area!“

“Excellent restaurant. My wife and I love their food. Extremely high quality food at great pricing. Every meal we’ve ordered is delicious.“

“Amazing, family-run business that never compromises on quality! Even as Omakase has grown, their sushi is always made with the freshest ingredients. I can’t wait to see how they expand upon their catering business!“

“I had an incredible dining experience at Oyako Tso. The moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive without being intrusive—truly professional and welcoming.

I ordered Sushi and Steak. It was absolutely delicious. The flavors were well-balanced, portions were generous, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh, not from a can of food, also high quality.

Special shoutout to the French Fries.

The service was amazing, and I never felt rushed. Even the little details, like presentation and drink pairings, I was so impressed.

Never was forced to tip, but still left 30 dollar tip.

I Highly recommend this place for a date night, special occasion, or just a good place to get food. I’ll definitely be coming back!!“

“Sono has always been our go to for delicious fresh sushi. Tonight there was a delay with our pick up....it's lent. We get it - they even gave us 2 free sodas to apologize. Then 2 hours later they send us an apology text. Honesty and apologetic. Now that's a classy move!“

“This is usually my favorite sushi spot but unfortunately service was extremely slow this time. My first order never came out and I had to flag down the server after waiting a long time. He said he forgot to put it in. Several times he never brought back the menu to continue ordering, even though the menu is supposed to be kept at the table. The sushi took a long time to come out each time and the server barely checked on my table. Disappointing but hopefully next time is better as this is one of my favorite sushi places.“

“Absolutely awesome. I would highly recommend this place“

“Solid bowl that hit the spot and warmed the body on a cold January afternoon. Pickled mushroom provided a mild tang to offset the richness of the broth, jammy-ish egg, and fatty pork belly. Staff was friendly and readily answered menu questions“

“Best sushi around! Fresh and the service is quick!“

“I’ve been living in Freehold for 27 years, yet I couldn’t even name another food court restaurant, let alone endear myself to any so much as I have Little Tokyo. When I was a little girl, I would so look forward to their INIMITABLE teriyaki dark meat chicken samples, and I spent my first wages ever on an actual meal from this place. It is a time-tested fixture at the Freehold mall, a must-have if you ever work or shop here and still a reliably fast and delicious option for me when I am in the area. I’m pretty sure I’ve been helped by the exact same woman at the front of the line my entire life, and she gives me a big smile every time I see her. I’ve tried teriyaki/bourbon chicken at other malls all over the state, and this is the only one that is not only delicious, but is prepared in way that is not greasy. This is truly the only place I will go for Americanized Chinese food and enjoy it at all. My go-to: 2 sides, 2 entrees - string beans and plantains, double teriyaki chicken. Even post-pandemic, the price is unbeatable for the amount of food you get.“

“Food is good. We ordered 2 different sushi and chicken katsu. One of the sushi was served raw (as most sushi are) and I can't eat them cause I am BF-ing my baby. We told the staff and they cooked them for us. Good food and descent price. The atmosphere is good and quiet for a date night with my husband.“

“Fantastic“

“Delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Love their Bento boxes!!!“

“The owners are the best they stay open 1 more hour after closing time & sushi 🍣 was great 🍣🥰“

“Had a nice time celebrating my birthday. The food was great & so we’re the drinks. 😁🍹🧉“

“HIGHLY recommend Koi Sushi! It was DELICIOUS 🥰“

“Are you open for dining and do you offer the all you can eat“

“Love, love, love this place. I was in heaven. Presentation was awesome. If you love sushi, come join us! 🥰“

“ordered DoorDash and the food was amazingggg
I got the little chicken dumplings - veggie spring rolls - and the beef teriyaki lunch bowl and everything was super yummy.
The reviews about the service are kinda scary and i can’t comment on that Hanna girl- but what i can say is the food is worth the price !“

“I’ve been eating at this place for a while. It’s pretty good standard Chinese food oh and the sushi is always good. The reason I’m writing this review is because of their delivery driver. An older gentleman came to my door with a smile very friendly. After he handed me the bag he extended his hand for a hand shake and said happy new year. You don't see that type of kindness/friendliness every day. Give panda house a try good people work there“

“I can’t speak on the atmosphere but I can tell you about what I had
- Salmon Bento Box
- Miso Soup
- Shrimp Lo Mein
I ordered through DoorDash because the family I babysit for wanted that ordered for the kids , never heard of this place but was willingly to try
All the food was absolutely delish !!!!!
I was so suprised that everything has so much flavor ! I was on the fence before since I saw some of the negative reviews on Google after I had already ordered , seems like they’ve made some positive changes because our food was hot and very very delicious ! Completely different than some had said a year ago“

“Everything was delicious and the staff were absolutely excellent in every way!“

“The hibachi was great, plenty of food! Will go back again“
