42 Best Japanese Restaurants near Dobbs Ferry

“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.“

“Sushi was wonderful and the staff was attentive and knew what to recommend.“

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

“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!“

“My family arrived at Sushi and Kimchi late in the evening right before their closing, but the host welcomed us and informed us what was available. We were so grateful. The food was authentic and delicious (My 80 year old Korean mom approved them too!!) and the service was beyond imaginable. We are very jealous of locals who can go eat there often. We will definitely go back when we drive through the town again. Thank you!!!!“

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

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

“The food is incredible! The waiters and waitresses are all very nice, and they make the environment very comfortable and super enjoyable. Matsuyama's open until 10 pm, so it is very suitable for later dinners. The restaurant design itself is also beautiful. Could not recommend a sushi restaurant more!“

“We decided to try this sushi spot under its new ownership—and we’re so glad we did! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the menu had a great variety of rolls to choose from. My daughter ordered the Udon noodles, which were packed with flavor and served with crisp, fresh vegetables.

The sushi chef even surprised us with a complimentary roll as a thank-you for coming in—it was almost too beautiful to eat! And to top it off, they gave us each a serving of mochi ice cream on the house, which was a perfect sweet ending.

The food, the service, and the hospitality were all excellent. Definitely worth checking out under the new owners!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

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

“I’ve been coming to hinode since I was a kid. the sushi is always fresh and tasty. I live 45 minutes away and still take a trip over whenever I want to treat myself to good food. I will be returning in a few days for my birthday.

Also saw someone left a review about there not being a bathroom which made me laugh, there is a bathroom and Ive washed my hands in it every time Ive visited since I was a little girl - they must have the wrong place.“

“I love it!! And the place is clean“

“We absolutely love it here at Kobe. We’re local to New City and used to go to another Japanese restaurant until we discovered Kobe about 4yrs ago. Since then we are regulars, we all love it - my husband and 3 daughters. We celebrate almost all of our family birthdays here - it’s always a good time. They always have something fun going on, most recently we attended their Anniversary party and everyone who attended had the opportunity to win a prize . They really appreciate their customers . The fish is fresh, the martinis are strong, the staff is always so gracious and pleasant. I can’t believe I hadn’t left a review sooner . We love KOBE it’s the best restaurant in New City in my opinion.“

“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.“

“The food here was fantastic — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The restaurant was clean and the atmosphere was lovely. Our server was incredibly kind and welcoming; truly one of the best dining experiences in terms of service.

However, our meal was disrupted by a group of unaccompanied children who were very loud, constantly changing the restaurant’s music, and playing with the volume to the point it was hard to hold a conversation. One even mentioned their dad owns the building. Another diner actually asked if they were ours because it was that disruptive.

I really hope the owner addresses this, because it’s not fair to the staff or the guests if the children are being truthful about coming three times a week being this disruptive. Otherwise, this place is wonderful and I’d absolutely return when I’m back in the area.“

“This loosely Chinese/Japanese food is a safe choice if you want a meal that will fill you that isn't expensive in terms of Chinese/Japanese take-away.

Parking: A decent sized parking lot. Midday and evening are definitely the busiest times.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps allows an ease of use for wheelchair bound indoviduals.“

“Outstanding food and outstanding service. We went for a birthday, and they provided a dessert for the birthdays we were celebrating. I definitely recommend going, as it’s an amazing experience with amazing food. Additionally, it’s on the quieter side, with a very calm atmosphere. Very well-decorated too!!“

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

“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😊“

“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“

“It’s a tradition in my family!! We always have the best time. It’s local and the people make it special. They were all awesome to my Granddaughter . I’m a customer and a fan.“

“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.“

“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 !“

“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. 🍣🍤🍸“

“Excellent food Excellent service Excellent prices!“

“Love this place! Bought my family for the first time and they were amazed at how delicious it was and there is parking! Definitely recommend!“

“I love to eat here and my favorite dish is Pork/chicken Katsu. Always fresh and crunchy,
They cook the best katsu/curry sauce. They cook daily and it is a rich sauce with veggies and meat. Family cooking style. Simple and delicious! Thank you !“

“I just finished a fabulous Hawaiian poke bowl that I would recommend to anyone. A perfect blend of crunchy spicy and succulent. My choice is to have it over greens, but I think it would be just as good over brown rice. The staff is incredibly friendly, patient with new customers, and so helpful. Good to eat in, eat outside, or takeout!“

“The tea and the sulshies are really good I love there shrimp fried rice and the suhsi is really good you wont be disapointed“

“In a town with many dining options, you can’t go wrong here. There is a great variety of items to choose from in a arm and inviting atmosphere. It is also just around the corner from the Burns Film Center- perfect for pre or post cinema. Nice place for a relaxing drink too“
