50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Bronxville

“Dropped in for the first time. Excellent sashimi, killer wasabi shumai appetizer, simply wonderful service! Need to try everything on the menu....“

“Tasty food. Decent prices… Need to try the drinks to give it a double thumbs up lol.“

“The food was generally salty. The first time I went, I ordered the eel rice bowl, but it was so salty that I thought I'd ruined my appetite after enjoying the other appetizers. The staff checked with me and said it was just salty that day. I got free ice cream instead. So today, I went for the hand rolls for the second time, and even the appetizers were a little salty. The hand rolls were delicious. The other dishes were fine, but they were a little salty. It wasn't just me; everyone I went with said the same thing.“

“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!“

“Absolutely loved our experience yesterday. The basic omakase was delicious at $38, no hidden charges, and staff were lovely. Only slightly minor quibble was everything seemed a bit rushed and a little less peaceful than other places I've been to, but fair enough at that price. I was also a bit surprised at the rudeness of a customer talking on her phone when the staff were trying to engage her. That's not the restaurant's fault but maybe worth having a sign about using phones less and being in the moment more?!“

“Just finished my teriyaki steak box. Has to be the best I have ever had. Fresh, crisp, distinct flavors all on one plate. I do not usually write reviews but was so impressed that I had to congratulate them. Well done!“

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

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

“Our dinner at Minato was amazing! I was truly impressed by the ambience and serenity of the garden area, with beautiful lighting and a fountain. The staff was incredibly kind and informative as they fielded all of our questions, and even were open to adjusting our order based on our preferences.

Highly recommend the assorted fish flight and salmon flight, and the teas which came in beautiful pots!!“

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

“I had the steak soba. Outstanding. There was jazz music playing, but not too loud. The lights were dim but not too dim. Service was excellent. I will definitely be coming back.

Vegetarian options: I'm nit a vegetarian but I did notice some obvious vegetarian dishes.“

“This is a truly authentic Japanese experience. It instantly brought me back to the ramen I had in Japan—comforting, rich, and perfectly balanced. Honestly, this is the best ramen I’ve had anywhere in the U.S., even compared to the fancy spots in NYC. It’s amazing to have something this special right here in New Jersey. With humility and simplicity, they’ve created something truly unforgettable. Thank you.“

“It's been years coming to parsley, I mean how can you not come here. Let me explain to you that this woman all by herself is managing this place. From Onigiris to Tuna Don, Maze Gohan as well as ramen soups. I mean everything is so perfect. She has a great selection of sake to die for as well as beer. Without mentioning that there is a variety of Wines. Excellent for Dine in and takeout. Overall, a great place for dates, as well as coming alone. You will not be disappointed.

Vegetarian options: Tofu soup, Vegetable Gyozas, vegetables Onigiris.“

“i work in Harlem and this little gem on 124th is fabulous. the food is delicious, the lunch specials are well priced. I have had many lunches and dinners at this place. love love love it“

“I’m absolutely thrilled with the takeout experience from this sushi restaurant! The quality of the sushi is top-notch, rivaling any dine-in experience I've had. Every piece is fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The packaging is impeccable, ensuring that the sushi remains perfect by the time it arrives at home. The menu offers a fantastic variety, catering to both traditional and modern tastes. The staff is incredibly courteous and efficient, making the ordering process seamless. If you're looking for exceptional sushi roll to enjoy in the comfort of your home, this place is a gem. Highly recommended!“

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

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

“Top notch sushi in a traditional Japanese sushi bar. Not glitzy, but for me it's all about the sushi. Service is fantastic, my green tea cup never got below half full before they were topping it up. Even the green tea and miso soup were really good and full of flavor, well above average.“

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

“This place has good quality sushi for a good price. I come here for takeout often, and the rolls always hit. The place itself is super tiny but I do dine in here sometimes and it’s nice. Just not for big groups of course. It’s a really solid go to option for me.“

“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 got a takeout order of the lunch special chicken teriyaki bento box to try this place for the first time. The chicken was really soft and delicious. Under the chicken there is cabbage and broccoli which were both cooked well. The California roll was good - the rice had good flavor, and the avocado was soft. I feel more confident to try their raw sushi now. I'll update my review whenever I get around to trying that.

This place used to be a Chinese store, and around 2022 a new management took over and turned it into a sushi place. it still looks like a regular Bronx Chinese store inside. Unlike other sushi restaurants, this isn't really the kind of place I'd want to sit and eat. But it's great for takeout.“

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

“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.“

“fresh and delicious! great customer service!“

“Brought my parents here for dinner. I ordered chirashi (sashimi style fish over rice), my dad ordered a sushi combo, and my mom got the broiled mackerel (saba). Food was delicious and the atmosphere was great — restaurant is nicely decorated and they were playing soft jazz music in the background. Service was friendly and prompt, I also had the opportunity to order our meals in Japanese which was a lot of fun. All in all, Fujinoya is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Westchester and I would highly recommend it!“

“Upscale Japanese cuisine, very friendly staff. For sure one of the best Japanese restaurant in Long Island. I enjoyed!“

“My partner told me this was the best sushi place ever, so they brought me here. After trying their Sakura roll and honey truffle roll, I can confidently say that I have surpassed the human form and ascended into heaven. This is the BEST sushi I have tried. The setting is very cute and the waitress is very kind. I highly recommend coming and trying the honey truffle roll!“

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

“Teriyaki One on Fordham is great! The food is fresh and tasty, and the portions are generous. The staff is friendly and quick, even when it’s busy. The place is clean, and the prices are reasonable. Definitely a go-to spot for teriyaki in the Bronx!“

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

“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😊“

“This a very cool Japanese place on the east side of 125th street in Harlem. They have been here for years. Recently I happened to be passing through and decided to see what was up again. To my surprise they added some very tasty new menu items. I had a delicious spicy grilled salmon roll. A katsu chicken plate. A shrimp tempura roll( who doesn'tlove those), and a spicy grilled chicken roll and a French roll D-damn-licious!!!! The only thing i had i was not a fan of was these chicken wings. I'm sure plain they would've fine. But they put them in some type of sauce that was not very pleasing. Hard pass on the wings charlayyyy....lol. outside of that everything else was Grade A.

Vegetarian options: You can pretty much create your own vegetarian dishes from what they offer.“

“Excellent Asian fusion cuisine and great ambiance-at reasonable prices! Great drinks too!“

“After a long day of walking, this was the perfect spot to rest and refuel. Great value for their $19 lunch options. High quality sushi, wonderful vibe from the service staff, good music and awesome sake. Try their premium cold sake! Wow! So glad we stopped here on our trek to get a pic of Tom’s diner (Seinfeld).“

“I took my family here and it was good. The price is super affordable and the food is not bad. There are a couple new employees that do not speak English very well but some do. The atmosphere is just amazing from traditional Japanese sitting to normal tables. I will defiantly recommend this place.

Vegetarian options: There is a little section labeled vegetarian and my daughter really enjoyed it.“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“Yummy!!!!! ummmmm!!!!! Thi shrimp platter the sushi!!!!“

“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 is basically my local sushi spot and it's not bad. I've also enjoyed their Katsu and Teriyaki.
Most of what I've had was pretty good however the location is meh. I'm probably getting 3 rolls tomorrow. This isn't a dine in kinda spot, I've packed up my order or had it delivered.“

“Very fresh food great service great prices!!!! Will do again!!!“

“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.“

“I feel a need to respond to the crazy person who complained about the bathroom issues experience at Hinode. The people that own and run, this restaurant could not be more accommodating, helpful, and generous. Your experience had absolutely nothing to do with the outstanding quality of their food and service. If you have enough time to write that completely unrelated review and post it. Then you should find the time to consult with a physician and address your own personal bathroom issues. Regardless of your situation, ultimately they were kind enough to allow you to use their restroom.“

“Batka made such fresh, beautiful rolls! Seaweed salad is the bomb. This place is delicious, and the prices are great. You’ll get much better sushi at better prices here than at nearby supermarkets, and you’re supporting a local sushi shop. Go for it!“

“This is the place if you want authentic, high quality, Japanese food. The small dishes on the separate menu are really delightful.

Prices reflect food quality. Be prepared to pay for the best all around Japanese food in the area. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

They run it like fine dining, not like a casual sushi bar. So they have strict rules around noise, noisy kids, and cell phones. Don't expect to bring your kid and set him up with an ipad with the volume on. Seems reasonable. No outside food, no exceptions. Seems reasonable.

The servers were polite, no issues in this department.

A real gem of a restaurant.“

“Great food. Bento box is my fiancé & my favorite. Once a week We order.“

“A really nice and cozy place to buy asian groceries and snacks at a cheap price!Musashi is the ramen store, and Maruichi is the convenience store. They have an open wall between, so you can walk through.It's a great place to go with a friend to get decent food at great prices.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 !“
