37 Best Japanese Restaurants near Northport

“My wife and I walked in for dinner without a reservation maybe two months ago at around 6:30 on a Saturday. Since the wait was a bit longer than usual we were kindly given a plate of Edamame on the house. That's when we noticed that our server was working the entire dining room by herself after another called in sick last-minute.Being short staffed is a challenge on any night but this was a packed house on Saturday night with a large number of take-out orders flowing and the team stepped up with impressive dexterity. Given the circumstances mistakes can happen but we didn't notice any.Our meals were delicious, creative and beautiful. We've since returned several times for the great food but the real triumph that night was how well everyone in the front house performed.

Kid-friendliness: We saw several kids having a great time!“

“My family has been ordering from here for years. When we don’t want to cook, we go to Happy Wok for a quick, reliable, inexpensive, and delicious bite. We have had both take out and delivery. My food always comes out great. One time they forgot one of my items, but in the end, they made it right. If you’re reading this, give Happy Wok a try. They are a staple in the Northport community“

“Amazing place. I was making a delivery when I stumbled upon it and I tried their menu. I love their sushi, I am on a roll of trying it all, but I'm stuck on the spider roll it's so good I can't move past it.... I like to call in advance so I don't have to wait but they're always quick. Super healthy and delicious lunch/dinner options!!“

“very nice fresh and delicious food“

“We have only eaten here a handful of times but each time the food is fresh for both dine in & take our. I love the 20% off when you order on-line. The staff is very friendly and accommodating allowing my daughter to customize her bento box. Tonight we took out & I left my phone on the bar. The staff held it for me in the register until I returned to get it. They definitely won me as their customer!“

“I want to love this restaurant because I find it to be one of the better Korean restaurants on LI. I have enjoyed many of the apps and grilled dishes. My biggest issue is the soups and jigaes are disappointing. They are so under flavored. Korean stews and soups should be rich with flavor and spice, please don’t hold back on this. 🙏“

“Truly a hidden gem!! This authentic Korean restaurant beats out popular spots in the city. We were greeted warmly upon entry and immediately served tea and a wide assortment of banchan (the tiny side dishes). We started with Pajeon (seafood & green onion pancake) and honestly I’ve had this in countless places and it was the best Pajeon I have ever had- not soggy at all, and the seafood was tender and not annoyingly chewy. Also had the Japchae (excellent), Combo #1 (LA Galbi Short Rib and and soft tofu stew) and a summer special of chilled buckwheat noodles. The portions were generous and the wait staff really were attentive and so helpful. The place has a homey feel like you’re at your favorite auntie’s house. 10/10, no notes, this will be in my heavy rotation.“

“Sam and I love going here! The food is magnificent! We love the sautéed oysters appetizer and the tuna is amazing! We never had a bad experience here it is $$$ but worth it. It is definitely one of our favorite restaurants.“

“Great food&crew. definitely recommended“

“Amazing experience! Dennis is the absolute best in the business ❤️“

“Felt hungry so I grabbed a California and Tuna roll at Miss Sakura. California roll was exactly what you would expect ; tasty crab and creamy avocado. The Tuna roll was even better; the tuna tasted fresh, and the nori was crispy. Service was friendly, and the place was chill. Overall, a solid, reliable sushi spot for a casual meal. 10/10 🤩“

“Excellent Sushi, Teriyaki, Pad Thai, Indonesian, Szechuan, and noodle dishes. Fresh, quickly prepared and delicious. Amazing hot and sour soup. Try the Szechuan peppercorn dishes! Staff is thoughtful, polite, and attentive. Lunch specials are a great value.“

“Sushi is always great! Reasonable prices as well. Prices have gone up recently like every other place, BUT they are the only place that also increased their portion sizes. Rolls got bigger! So well worth it!

Seriously, I can't recommend this place enough for take out sushi. I keep coming back. There's a few seats inside as well, which are nice, but they definitely cater to take out a bit more.“

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this Thai restaurant last night with our family! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for the evening. The host was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and friendly—making sure we were comfortable throughout our meal.

The food was outstanding—every dish was bursting with authentic Thai flavors, beautifully presented, and perfectly cooked. We especially loved the [insert a favorite dish if you’d like], but honestly, everything we ordered was delicious!“

“The food was good and great service“

“Absolutely loved my experience at Honami Sushi and Bar! The sushi was super fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy yet modern. Highly recommend their salmon mango rolls.“

“Food here is amazing, they're so friendly and attentive, menu choices are great, lunch special is a good price, and they pat attention to detail! I know most sushi places have ginger dressing salad and miso.. but theirs is better than usual lol. And the rolls are fresh and not skimpy. Tea is included. I love coming here on my breaks sometimes.“

“The manager Cindy is sweet, personable and extremely accommodating as is the waitress also named Cindy. Their sushi is always fresh and the amount of fish in the nigiri and rolls are amazing!!!!As a sushi lover and a personal chef, I highly recommend this secret gem.They are located on the west side of Broadway/Greenlawn Rd., on the same side of the street as 7-11, within a small group of stores.Not to be confused with the other Japanese across the street. That's a completely different story.PS. They have a sushi roll special that's really amazing as a quick takeout.“

“First time being at the restaurant, originally thought it was a table serve restaurant but it's actually a casual take out spot with the option to dine in.

Despite seeing a bit of mixed reviews I couldn't say I was hesitant since the photos of the food shared look genuinely worth trying and it exceeded expectations in terms of freshness, flavor, and even presentation
Ordered Sesame chicken combination platter and they do not compromise on flavor.

Each part had its defining flavor even the eggroll tasted as if it was fried in a very high quality oil setting it apart from others I've had. The sesame chicken had the best balance of sweet and savory with the pork fried rice being a standout for me.

This isn't your average yellow friend rice from your favorite hole in the wall but a delicious fried rice with some wok char, bright bean sprouts and the tastiest pops of salty pork. The pan fried dumplings had a very authentic flavor with the perfect crisp on the bottom.

What surprised me more was that this restaurant wasn't really busy, only a few people popped in for their take out order. With such a great experience, genuinely tasty flavors, I'm genuinely excited to revisit and try some more!“

“reasonable prices, great tasting food, friendly service“

“We took my niece here for her birthday. It was her choice. She loves hibachi loves it I think we got it for the last 24 years of her 24 years on this world.

So we took a hike to this place which is not close to her house but it was well worth it. The selections were so much better the chef was so much better he didn't kill everything like they doing some of the places I didn't feel rushed out of there like you do in some other some places.

They had red snapper as one of the choices I've never seen that. And I had it and I was worried because a lot of times they overcook it like crazy. But he cooked it perfectly. I will come back just to have this.

The only one thing that I thought was a little misplaced is that you have to choose between soup or salad it's usually both it's always been both. They decided to change it monetarily I suspect.

That's really the only thing that I thought was a little off. Other than that the chef was so much fun and he did the most wonderful balloon gifts for my niece and her friend and another woman at the table.

I would go here again“
