50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Island Park

“Had sushi from them 3 times this week!! We love it! The salmon is delicious and the crazy tuna roll is our favorite! Yummy.“

“Amazing sushi bar and customer service!! 100% recommend!!!“

“Incredibly popular — and it’s easy to see why! Even though they were super busy with orders, everything was handled smoothly and professionally. My sushi arrived fresh, neatly packed, and absolutely delicious. You can tell they care about quality, even during a rush. Great food, great value, and totally worth the wait. Will definitely order again!“

“The Atmosphere is so chill and the food is amazing. You have to try the coconut cake and the coconut pudding. It’s homemade and made with fresh coconut water. Please continue to support them as they are an amazing and friendly business. You won’t be sorry. It’s very demure very cutesy ?

“Had a bento box for lunch and was really impressed! The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was beautiful, and the portions were generous. The tempura was perfectly crispy, and everything tasted great. Tina was so sweet, genuine, and welcoming — 10/10 would definitely come back“

“muy buena atención, exelente todo 👍“

“Mufu is a hidden gem! Their poke bowls are super fresh and flavorful! I had pineapple, chicken, and brown rice, and it all came together perfectly. The restaurant is spotless, and the service was fast and welcoming. I’d 100% come back again! Sooo delicious!“

“Best sushi in Long Island“

“Came here for lunch and it was great. Wonderful portion size and a good selection of bento box. Not served in a traditional bento box but a 4-sectioned plate. Soup and salad served separately. Price is reasonable. Attentative staffs. Will return in the future.

Parking: Parking lot behind the building“

“The freshest sushi you'll find.“

“Just ate here for the first time last night - a friend highly recommended it. The food was amazing - we had two poke bowls, chicken teriyaki, vegetable fried rice, shumai, Chicken negimaki - everything delicious. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Best sushi I’ve had! They have Karaoke nights on Thursdays and it’s a lot of fun!!!“

“I'd recommend this place ... sort of. We chose to sit on the dining side since it was only two of us and didn't want the "show". The service was friendly and good but not overly attentive. Our drinks were very good and a fair price (we had the Oceanside Zombie but without the Sprite added). We both ordered the hibachi surf and turf (lobster and filet mignon) which came with a house salad and clear soup, both of which we really enjoyed. The filet was tasty but the pieces were cut very unevenly so some pieces were medium rare and others were close to well done. The lobster tail was very small and too salty. I would not order it again. I was completely disappointed that the veggies were drowning in teriyaki sauce. There was no indication on the menu that they are served in sauce. I typically love hibachi vegetables but I hate teriyaki sauce! They reminded me more of Chinese takeout vegetables than Japanese hibachi. The fried rice was good but not the best. It came with lots of peas and I hate peas. Another disappointment but not a surprise was they don't offer hibachi mustard sauce. Like so many other places these days they offer yum yum sauce instead which we refused because, yuck yuck. They offered us some ice cream on the house (I think because the server knew I was very disappointed about the teriyaki sauce). It came to the table in little plastic cafeteria style cups with the pull back paper top. LOL. I'm glad it did though because the top listed the ingredients and let's just say, we immediately sent the ice cream back. All in all, not the greatest hibachi experience but also not the worst. I would maybe go back for drinks and try some other menu items ... and hold the teriyaki sauce!“

“With so many options in the area, it would seem crazy to suggest that Kaiyo could possibly set itself apart. I mean, it's not like the menu is wildly original or anything. However, somehow, Kaiyo's fish selection finds itself absolutely on another level. Sashimi heads rejoice.“

“Food is awesome and tastefully delicious 😘😋😋Staff are so friendly and cordial 😊🥢🥢“

“I love going to Sherry Blossom! Food is amazing and healthy and the menu has been expanding. Best pork gyoza! Wish I could help open another store! Keep it up!“

“quality sushi for what seems like a 100 years. Amazing service and one of the most welcoming environments in long beach“

“I love this place. Sushi and cheap drinks, good drinks too! Way better than Tobiko by King Kullen. Staff is super friendly and the place is nicely decorated, chill music not too loud, and they deliver! I hope this place stays here, really awesome. I always stop in whenever I'm around
Edit 2024: They no longer deliver :(
But the quality has not declined!“

“Honestly I haven't had sushi this fresh and high quality in a long time. Even the mango was perfectly ripe
(which is hit or miss at most restaurants). The salad greens were fresh and not wilted . I was impressed and will definitely go back.“

“Great food, great service😊“

“I went here for my birthday and the food was phenomenal. The chef was super friendly. The service was attentive while not being too pushy and asking customers if they want anything else. They even cater to toddlers as well and that's always a great plus. The bathrooms are tidy and the host was quick to assist us.“

“First of all, customer service is amazing. They were super kind and my order of 4 Hibachi dinners was done in less than 20 minutes. Second of all, the second I walked in, I could smell the fresh chicken. Third of all, when I took a bite of the food, it was straight up amazing. I will be coming back!“

“Was looking for a new sushi spot & found it. Great location. Very spacious restaurant with a nice atmosphere.
? the quality of food was very good. Everything we got felt very fresh.
? our waitress last night seemed overwhelmed, we had to keep trying hard to get her attention.
? so we got the maki combo to start & we chose option B with miso soup, it was very good.
? from the special rolls we got the the
-Tiffany Roll . So delicious! It’s heavy, but very good.
-sushi sandwich - it was good, but it needed something crispy to hold & feel it…felt very mushy eating it…so it wasn’t a pleasant experience
-drank hot tea

Overall definitely recommend!

“two days ago was the first time in this excellent restaurant. But It is surely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the efficient service, with the high quality meal and wine and with the honest cost. We will no doubt visit there again.“

“The Absolute Beat hibachi ever!!! Amazing people and the freshest foods ever!!! We love going to Merrick Suki!!!“

“Shogun Japan is a gem for sushi lovers, offering an authentic experience that delights from start to finish. The moment you step in, the serene, beautiful décor sets the tone for a meal that's both intimate and exceptional. The sushi here is simply outstanding—every piece is fresh, beautifully presented, and crafted with care. Opting for the sushi dinner choice was a highlight. Allowing the chef's expertise to shine through in a perfectly balanced progression is a top choice for anyone. They also have other menu items like fried rice , rolls, calamari, dumplings, and so much .“

“Omg this place makes great food. Get the hamburger. I was so impressed with the quality, presentation and flavor. This is one special spot.“

“Always good, all the time. Been going to Komo for some time. I enjoy the sushi. From special rolls to the simple and classic, always fresh and delicious. My wife gets their hot food, also very good. For takeout or dine in, give it a shot, you won't be disappointed.

Parking: Park in the lot behind the restaurant if you can't find a spot on the street.“

“Food is always fresh, innovative and delicious. cons service: you feel like you are on a 1/2 hour lunch “rush” no matter day or evening. While enjoying your appetizer and warm sake, the wait staff piles down your entree …. I’ve learned to order my entree after I’ve completely finished my app. going for years, wait staff no personable skills though very polite. Decor cosmopolitan, they spent a lot of money on the chairs but now the faux leather vinyl is sagging, peeling and it’s hard to find a comfortable seat. I overall love and support this hidden diamond in the rough Asian restaurant“

“i got the teriyaki chicken and shrimp and it was so good! my boyfriend got it a week before and gave me a bite. had me craving it for a week and when i finally got it, did not disappoint. we split a plate and it was more than enough for both of us come come come !“

“Excellent food and service.“

“Great service. Ken is the man on the grill??????????…. Five star service“

“Had a fantastic birthday/mother’s day celebration tonight! So happy to have a great restaurant to celebrate important events with the family! Such a huge selection all included in their base price! So so delicious and so reasonable! Can’t wait to come back again soon! Well done all!“

“I just wanted to get something quick, I found out they had cards they can stamp to eventually get a free meal. I’ve been here about 4 other times and no other cashier has ever mentioned that to me until Alexa did tonight. She ended up giving me two for filled up cards which she didn’t have to. Her customer service was fantastic. And would definitely keep coming again. Everyone is very nice and friendly in there. Would recommend.“

“Must try the Swan bowl = 10/10“

“Best sushi on the south shore.“

“Best sushi place I've had the pleasure to visit in a very long time. We thank our server, Maggi, and restaurant owner, Peter, for their expertise with gluten allergies!!! Strongly recommend anyone with Celiac to this restaurant!!! Awesome!!!“

“Unbelievable! Great food, great fun, and the best service! Can’t wait to go back!“

“I loved the Teriyaki meal I purchased with shrimp! They also had awesome customer service to go along with it. I was met with a smile and the staff was very polite. The Chicken teriyaki has a nice savory taste and crunch to it almost. Cooked perfectly and It's a bit sweet. Right amount of seasoning and I loved that. It's some of the best Teriyaki i've purchased. I will be returning and I recommend trying their food.“

“Great People and Great Food!!“

“Absolutely 💯 out of 10 Service Servers Food Experience Amazing!! do not miss out!! we will definitely be back!!“

“KINHA is consistently delicious and a fun evening for Japanese Fusion. The presentations are exquisitely formed and appealing. On a busy night, the service could possibly be rushed but overall the staff is friendly and welcoming and efficient. It is a definite regular for us.“

“Amazing food, ordered here in the past and had the best Japanese food I have had outside the city. Hell, they are in my top 2 now and the 1st place is a 5 star place. Perfectly prepared, flavors are on point and freshness is there. Great portions for the price and I hope they only get better. Next time I go, I'll add some photos to show you how good it looks.“

“If you’re looking for the most delicious Asian cuisine & sushi and have never been to Sakura, you don’t know what you are missing! This is our favorite place for dinner, take out & party platters for special occasions. Their food is always a work of art & so yummy! Whether you order ala carte or take advantage of their all you can eat menu, you will leave happily satisfied, every single time!“
