11 Best Japanese Restaurants in Poughkeepsie

“Me and my daughter were looking for a place and I'm so glad we checked this out. We did the lunch special and it wasy so affordable that this is going to be out go to place. Sushi was good, service good and even the miso soup tasted better than most places.“

“Truly the best Japanese restaurant in the area! Food is always so fresh, service extremely attentive! A wonderful family owned establishment! Owners make you feel so welcome and always remember you and what you order! Love this place!“

“Akari Sushi has exceptional customer service. Their waiters are very attentive. I come here every weekend and I would always get a special roll. The fish is always fresh. Kitchen entrees are always served hot. Try the home made hot sake when you’re here! Totally recommend this place!“

“Great owner bartender Karen. A must. Great place for motorcycle rescue.“

“Dinned in for sushi rolls while in the area. The quality of the food and the presentation blew my mind away. Amazing value for the price. The salmon roll had 6 pieces, and in other restaurants two pieces could equal the size of each of these pieces. The boba tea was delicious and reasonably priced. Our server seemed overwhelmed with assembling to go orders, but immediately brought the check when I flagged her down.“

“Omg when I say the food is so fresh. Ginza cleans their seafood very well I go at least once or twice a week just for the seafood boil. Customer service is amazing they all are so sweet and respectful. Thank you again for such great food Ginza“

“This is my favourite Food Court Restaurant at PG. Their Chicken Teriyaki, Sesame Chicken, Chicken Broccoli, Lo Mein, White Rice & others are flavourful & delicious. Each PG visit ~9of10 times I'd have Little Tokyo & my #2 Pick making up 1/10 would be Taco Bell directly across.“

“Can't say enough good things about this place. The service is friendly and attentive. The ambiance is cozy and attractive. The prices are very fair. And the food is AMAZING- last time we had the most beautiful literal bamboo BOAT of sushi and it was so fresh and beautifully presented. I've been there for lunch and dinner and will continue to return every time I get a sushi craving. The lunch specials are very reasonable as well!Last time we got a free mochi green tea ice cream as well and it was delicious!“

“Hubby and I had a bento box and terriyaki tofu. Both were delicious. The broth soup was also very flavorful and not overly salty. Service was efficient and timely. Waitress asked to refill drinks before glasses were totally empty. We'd definitely co.e here again to try other menu items.“

“I enjoyed this Godzilla Roll for its hearty warm flavor & deep-fried texture, though personally I thought the constituent seafood would be fried, & then wrapped into a roll. Either way, it's likeable fusion cuisine! I've also enjoyed their all-you-can-eat Japanese food special in the past, w/ former co-workers.“

“Vegetarian options: Even the sushi menu has fish free options.

Parking: Large parking lot inside shopping Plaza. Can drop your party off right at the front doors and parking spots are in the main lot.

Kid-friendliness: Hibachi is fun! Probably only want to bring kids who understand not to touch hot things.“
