10 Best Japanese Restaurants near Boardman

“Hello and this is Desmond Williams and please share with this Restaurant that they should now start serving some American food. Because there is no longer Golden Corral in Boardman and Hometown Buffet in Niles and Ponderosa Steakhouse on Elm Road in Warren Ohio. And now so customers won't have to go to the Golden Corral in Hermitage Pennsylvania to get American food? American food like Real Yams Mac, and Cheese, Baked Chicken, White Rice, Broccoli Cauliflower, Carrots, Cornbread Dressing and Mashed Potatoes and gravy.“

“Very good! Will definitely be back! Soba was amazing. The interior and atmosphere was also very nice.“

“I am an avid lover of all things coming out of Hanami's kitchen. I can not hold myself back from ordering more than I know I should for just myself because it's just that good. Every time, without fail, I have the best tasting, most fulfilling meal and only desire more for my greedy tasebuds. Top tier.“

“My husband and I tried both a dinner chicken bento box and their sushi roll special for the day. Their portions were amazing for the very good price level, and the ingredients were fresh! They were quick with order completion, as well. Highly recommend this gem, as it’s now in my top 10 for affordable and delicious food in the Boardman and Canfield area!“

“I will say this.. I have been to several establishments around and they by far have the best tasting sushi! Fresh and delicious, but that is hit and miss. Sometimes you can go and it is so good, you want to order it for lunch the next day or dinner. Then sometimes you go, the sushi tastes a bit store bought. I hate the hit and miss of quality from this place. Also, they can be a bit stingy on their dipping sauce, if you order two separate orders for yourself and someone else, why would you only give me one dipping sauce? There are two separate orders, so I just don’t understand, and this has happened to me more than once and on purpose.“

“Admittedly, I am a bit of a sushi snob coming from the west coast, but this place is great for a Midwest sushi chain. Their rolls are delicious, and their tempura is on point. I always order a large miso to go!

Kid-friendliness: My kids love sushi, but there are other fantastic options if your kids haven't developed a taste for it yet. And the water bubble wall divider is too much fun. Make sure you ask for a booth on that wall!“

“Let me begin by saying that I believe this is the best chicken teriyaki in the area for the price. The food is fresh, fast, and the meats are cooked hibachi style right in front of the customer, caramelizing them with a high heat char. As others have said, when the cook is done preparing your meal, they'll offer you a ladle of extra teriyaki sauce. The answer to this question is always yes.Now, on to the details and why I gave it 4/5 instead of a solid 5.Let's start with the cashier. Every time I've come here, the same cashier has been working, and she always seems annoyed that a customer has shown up. She can come off a bit snippy and impatient and has cut me off in the middle of speaking many times. I'm not sure what her deal is, or if it's just me, but I don't appreciate being made to feel like I'm bothering the cashier just by walking up to order.A word to the wise: as far as I can tell, the chicken is dark meat, and can sometimes not be trimmed as well as it should be. Almost every order has a few inedible or extremely fatty pieces, and I've come across several small pieces of bone and connective tissue over the many times I've eaten here. I don't know if they break down the meat in house or if it's shipped ready to cook, so I can't really fault them for it, but it's still a little off-putting.Despite these two issues, I do actually really enjoy Sarku Japan and it's pretty much the only place I go when I'm craving some Asian or teriyaki goodness. I highly recommend it. If you happen to be perusing the mall or just in the Boardman area, give it a try.“

“I love this place. It's one of the only Asian places around that tastes fresh with good quality meats and veggies. I would go as far as to say this place gives Mizus a run for its money at half the cost.

It's astounding to me a meal at burger King is 15$ when this place is directly across the street at 13$.“

“I've been eating there for more than 15 years and it's always been Great! The private hut rooms are cool and enjoyed sitting at the sushi bar too! I've eaten many pounds of their cuisine, never a problem. It's a family run multi generational business, competing with the conglomerates! Cut them some slack, please.“

“Delicious food and fun for the whole family. Love the hibachi steak veggies and rice.“
