50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Old Bethpage

“Definitely a hidden gem for authentic Korean food on Long Island! The portions are just right, everything is packed with flavor, and the banchan is amazing. I honestly loved every single one.

We ordered the Short Rib Soup, Chulpan LA Galbi Gui, Mukeunji Gamjatang Jungol (pork back-bone stew with dried cabbage), Chulpan Bulgogi Gui, and cold noodles. Everything was delicious, comforting, and full of authentic Korean flavors.

If you’re local or anywhere in the area, definitely give this hole-in-the-wall spot a try. Come hungry you won’t be disappointed! They take cash and credit card. Paying cash is better and you will see why when you are there. Bring cash for tips. There is a restroom and there is a decent size private room in the back. Service is outstanding.“

“We came in with a beastly group of about a dozen, and the kitchen handled the table with impressive speed. The food came out fast in steady waves, which kept everyone busy passing plates and eating without any lull. Every single dish hit the mark. The geek in me love the technology - from ordering on the tablets, to easy sign up on the app, to contactless payments.

Dim Sum & Starters
- Har Gow: Plump whole shrimp with wrappers that held together cleanly when picked up.
- Sticky Rice Shao Mai: Hearty and deeply savory, easily one of the table favorites.
- Scallion Pancake: Light, flaky layers without the grease you often get elsewhere.
- Sesame Balls: Fried crisp on the outside with the right amount of chew.

Entrees & Wok Mains
- Chongqing Spicy Chicken (La Zi Ji): Crispy bites packed with fragrant chilies and a great numbing heat.
- Mapo Tofu: Silky texture with a rich, warming kick that worked perfectly over rice.
- Pickled Mustard Green Fish Soup: Tart, comforting, and packed with tender fish slices. Unexpectedly a soup - we expected this to be stir fried (didn’t read enough)
- Shrimp with Bok Choy: Fresh greens with a satisfying snap and generously sized shrimp.
- Stir-Fried Udon: Good wok char on thick noodles that stayed bouncy.
- Chicken with Broccoli: Tender chicken and crisp broccoli in a clean, savory garlic glaze.
- Sesame Chicken: Sweet, crunchy, and vanished quickly with our crowd.
- Yeoungchow Fried Rice: Fluffy and light, acting as a great base for the spicy mains.

The staff kept our tea topped off, plates cleared, and the pace moving from start to finish. A reliable spot in the area when you have a big group of hungry people that wants variety and quality.“

“The perfect family compromise with amazing food! Our family is always divided when ordering dinner—half of us want Chinese food and the other half craves Japanese. Sakana is our absolute savior because they do both incredibly well. It makes ordering stress-free, and everyone always gets exactly what they want. Beyond the convenience, the food is consistently fresh and delicious. To top it all off, Cindy is wonderful! She is always so friendly, welcoming, and incredibly generous every time we order. We love supporting this local gem and cannot recommend it enough!“

“An Absolute Culinary Triumph with a Casual Twist

If you are looking for some of the freshest, most expertly crafted Japanese cuisine on Long Island, Dozo Dozo in Woodbury is an absolute must-visit. From the moment the food hits the table, it is clear that the kitchen operates at a world-class level. The fish quality is unparalleled, boasting a melt-in-your-mouth texture that rivals top-tier, high-end omakase spots in New York City.

Every single dish we ordered was a home run. The crispy rice tuna was a spectacular starter—perfectly golden and crunchy on the outside while remaining delicate on the inside. The spicy Kani Salad and Edamame were spot on.The specialty hand rolls and the signature Miso Black Cod were equally breathtaking, showcasing a masterclass in flavor balance and presentation.

The staff also deserves immense praise; the service was incredibly attentive, fast, and warm throughout our entire meal; with a nice window table.

The only minor disconnect is the atmosphere relative to the price point. With a premium menu where a dinner bill can easily scale up, the environment feels a bit too casual and informal. While the space is clean and contemporary, it lacks the quiet, upscale intimacy you might expect when paying top dollar for premium sushi. It leans more toward a lively, neighborhood-casual spot, kid-friendly, than an elite dining destination.

That being said, the food is so phenomenal that it completely overshadows any minor atmosphere critiques. If you prioritize world-class sushi over strict fine-dining formality, Dozo Dozo will easily become your new favorite spot. I will definitely be returning.“

“Love the family owned restaurant. A true culinary masterpiece. roppongi sushi has such fresh and tasty food. Top Japanese quality. Sushi chef Bendy makes every piece absolutely delicious. The sushi rice is perfectly balanced with the seafood. A true hidden gem.“

“The food was amazing! Everything tastes great, the portions are really good, and the food always feels fresh. We loved the calamari; it was very crispy and absolutely delicious. The shishito peppers, also incredible. We ordered the salmon and the steak, and both were cooked perfectly. Everything we tried was delicious.

The service I received was amazing. The two servers were very kind and attentive. I can’t always come in to eat, but I do order on DoorDash, and the sushi is the best—so good. Highly recommend it!“

“Amazing ambiance, the ceilings are super tall which is always great. Personally love the fact that's the menu is favored towards authentic Chinese cuisine. Everything is done really well. The dice mala chicken with chili is something i always order at every place that has it on the menu and this place definitely tops it. It's a must order. Would definitely return on the regular!“

“Steven and his staff are the best! Food is fresh, well presented and delicious! Very attentive service! Thank you for taking my challenge and crushing it. I walked in and said feed me with no holding back. I did not even look at a menu And they knocked it out of the park! Thank you again!!! Until next time!🙏 A+++++++++++++“

“Perfect gem in a little strip mall in Hicksville! One of a kind. Super fresh sushi and delicious bubble tea! Will be back and very soon!!“

“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!“

“It was a great time. My boyfriend and I enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Sitting with total strangers that were like friends before the night was over!!“

“Most of the Asian restaurants in Suffolk County are extremely hit or miss. Some use questionable ingredients, others are unfriendly and still others offer small portions for full price. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised by Tang Asian Fusion. The food is fairly priced, it’s made from high quality ingredients, the staff are happy to see their customers and the portions are generous. Every item I’ve ordered has tasted bright, clean and delicious. Best sushi around and enough to last two days. Excellent restaurant all around.“

“We came in on a Sunday about 8:40, well before the listed 9:30 closing time, and were warned as we came in that they actually close at 9:20. It seemed odd that it would be an issue with plenty of time to order; but apparently unlike most restaurants the closing time is a matter of when they expect you to actually leave.

Still, with seemingly enough time, we ordered, and the appetizer - soft shell crab - came quickly. Unfortunately, though it was not one of the dishes listed as “spicy”, it came with spicy mayo on top. I told the server that I can’t eat spicy food, would not have ordered it if I had known, and asked her to take it back. She gave me an argument, saying I should have told her I can’t eat spicy food. I pointed out that since they list some dishes specifically as spicy, one would assume - as in most other restaurants - that the rest are not. She reluctantly took it back, and informed us the Angel Roll we had ordered, also not labeled spicy, came with spicy mayo on top as well, so we also asked for that to be redone.

This pushed things closer to closing time, and rushed our meal a bit. But I have to say that the food was wonderful: The crab crisp outside, moist inside; the sushi fresh, and the pineapple shrimp fried rice delicious.

So despite the unfortunate attitude we encountered, this restaurant is well worth the trip for the excellent food. Just keep in mind that the closing time is not what’s listed on the website. And that it’s best, whatever the menu says, to ask details before ordering.“

“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!“

“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“

“Love the Matcha Latte, and all the different appetizers. Very friendly owner and staff!!! 👍🤗“

“Excellent, fresh and warm atmosphere.“

“Generally get take out but the few times my family has eaten there, the experience has been really good. My family's favorite sushi spot within 30 minutes of our house in Kings Park. Well worth the drive for special occasions or looking to treat yourself.“

“It’s just real good !! They check all the boxes ! Go enjoy a nice dinner or lunch !“

“An absolute and unexpected fantastic experience. The high quality food was freshly prepared and the service was so polite and friendly. They really understand takeout and pack the sauces and liquids separately so the food doesn't become soggy. The sushi and sashimi are prepared to order but they are very efficient and the wait time is not so long. Mizu is a huge step up from the usual asian takeout. It's restaurant quality.“

“Great vibe and food! Excellent service“

“Very decent and nice boss, the dishes are authentic and generous, like many other locals, I recommend this restaurant to my friends.“

“very nice fresh and delicious food“

“Hands down best sushi I’ve had, especially when factoring in the price. They are so sweet in here, and the food always comes out so quickly. Such a huge selection and everything is so fresh! Recommend the shrimp killer roll, the Christine roll, and the avocado salad with pepper tuna!“
