19 Best Japanese Restaurants in Rochester

“Fresh and delicious! Looking forward to our next visit 🍣“

“Service and food were fantastic. The food was delicious and full of flavor. Every bit of meat was tender and the vegetable spring rolls were light and crispy. Absolutely will be back!!“

“Some of the best sushi in Rochester. Everything is clearly made to order and always very fresh. My husband doesn’t typically like sushi, but he loves the Samba roll. Volcano roll is another great one. But the seared tuna appetizer might be our favorite! This has become our go-to place for date night.“

“Incredibly fresh sushi and a classic katsu curry rice plate! Easily the most authentic Japanese restaurant you’ll find in the area. I love that they give you a cold washcloth to clean your hands before eating. Our meal came with miso soup and salad which was great too! No frills, just classic comforts in a cute little restaurant :) Looking forward to coming back!“

“First time and was surprised! Ordered apps., fried rice, egg roll. All lightly fried not greasy at all. Reasonable prices. Fast friendly service.“

“We love Taste of Japan!!!“

“We always have an excellent meal at Fish Face!! The house fried rice is out of this world and pork belly buns are as well. Such a gem in Irondequoit!!“

“Had lunch at Honshu Hibachi today ,also the last day in Rochester, they stir-fried the chicken right on the teppan grill in front of us — felt like dinner and a show.
Ha..not sure if the owner adjusted the flavors a bit for us fellow Asians… and not gonna lie, it worked. Delicious!“

“amazing food. always fresh. I am so addicted to their dumplings. taste so much better than Chinese buffets“

“Spectacular Sushi, beautifully crafted, served exceptionally.“

“My second time here and still some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. The price and quality is really unbeatable in Rochester. The photo is from my first visit and was the reason my husband and I came back. The employees are also very nice!!“

“Excellent food, service & ambiance.“

“Gosto do Osaka mas hoje tive uma experiência ruim no delivery, os pratos quentes estavam frios e os fritos estavam murchos, não sei se os produtos são fritos no começo da noite ou se o restaurante liberou o pedido antes e não atualizou o delivery liberando para ir buscar, tanto que após 30 min de ter ido buscar o aplicativo estava mostrando a mesma coisa “pedido em preparação”. Só um aviso para se atentaram mais ao delivery!“

“Great service (I think Frank was our server), excellent food, fantastic cocktails. Highly recommend the chefs table if you’re on a date. It’s a little show to watch while there. If it’s still on the menu get the tuna crudo, it was the best bite of the night!“

“I have been going to Plum garden since I was a kid - and its always a family favorite!

Hibachi is fairly priced, lots of fun, and great for groups celebrating. A full course meal makes it easy to pick and get some of my all time favorites.“

“Great food and great wait staff! Just be careful to ask about their “service fee” which is really just the gratuity already added onto the bill. I didn’t ask what that was and ended up tipping twice accidentally. Other than that - it was great!“

“I ordered 1 pt roast pork with mixed veggies. It was really good and cheap. The vegetables were very fresh and lightly cooked. The soy sauce was gluten free. I loved my dinner.

The decor is stark, only two tables, and a homeless woman was sitting at the other table. It’s in an unattractive area.“

“I celebrated my Birthday there last night. Food is great. Server was excellent and very accommodating. Loved the Hibachi experience and my spicy tuna was Excellent.“

“I came here with my family, whole bunch of kids and they were very accommodating and loved entertaining them. Our waitress Ashley was amazing, checked on us often and brought stuff out right on time.
The only hang up is the owner. The 18% gratuity fee, which is included in the total, goes to the owner where he can spend where he sees fit. So we left Ashley a cash tip. The owner took our receipt and cash tip to give to the waitress, we wanted to make sure she got it so we quickly asked her on the way out... the owner only gave her half of her cash tip. Some of the other waitresses overheard and were upset and acted like this isn't the first time this has happened. When we asked the owner about it he denied it and said we didn't leave that much of a tip but he would go check. He never came back out.
Besides the owner scamming the waitresses and bartenders from their tips - it's a great place. Food was excellent.“
