13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Mentor

“V good. Definitely worth the drive to parts East“

“My family and I LOVE Maki. Their food is always fresh, and delicious. I haven't found my favorite dish YET. Too many to choose from. I love their Beef Pho, and Yakisoba. My husband enjoys ALL of their specialty sushi. Their waitresses are always kind, and attentive. My husband is always thirsty, and never has an empty cup. The main man...sushi preparer is amazing! Always delivers a beautiful dish! Out of all the restaurants we frequent in Lake County....Maki is always consistent with their food quality and service.“

“My wife and I felt like trying something new, so we opted for Sumoboy. The clear soup was flavorful. The chicken katsu i ordered was crispy and saucy. My wife enjoyed her bento box but thought there was a bit too much teryaki sauce, and some of the chicken chunks were a little tough. We were the only ones in the restaurant the entire time, so hopefully it was just an off time for them.“

“Sarku Japan is mainly known for its location in mall food courts across the country now starting brick and mortar locations. When Sarku disappeared from Great Lakes mall I must say I was saddened. I really miss occasionally eating there and did feel that the food they served there was cost effective and well balanced for around 10 bucks.
Having said that they now have a new location which is open in Mentor serving up there wonderful meals once again.
Keep up the good work!“

“First time at Issho Ni Poke Bar, and even though I didn’t try the poke, I was seriously impressed! I had the Rainbow sushi burrito and the Karai Maguro Onigiri—both were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully put together. The burrito was loaded with colorful, quality ingredients, and the spicy tuna onigiri with cucumber, eel sauce, and crispy onion was an awesome combo of heat, crunch, and richness.

My family goes to their Willoughby location all the time for sushi and ramen, so I already knew they were legit—but this spot has its own unique vibe and definitely lives up to the name. Friendly staff, quick service, and super clean inside too. I’ll definitely be back to try more!“

“Thos place is awesome! This is the best hibachi grill I've been to in years!!! The servings are big and the seafood was very fresh. The shrimp, scallops, and lobster tails are no joke. They're huge! The sushi is also really good. You can't go wrong eating here. We drove all the way from Conneaut, OH to get here and it was worth every mile there and back. My advice, come hungry.“

“The best Sushi I have ever had!!! My kids and I absolutly love it there! The owner is so sweet and remembers what sushi my son gets! The best service and food!! Highly recommend! We go at least 2/3 times a month! Ran into the owners at Sam’s club and was soo pleased to see all they had was fresh fruit and veggie!!! no frozen! There veggies are so crisp being fresh!!“

“HELLO MAMMALS!!! Today is my first visit to Young's Sushi at their new location at 12 E Spaulding St, Willoughby, OH 44094. The last time I visited they were still on Clark Ave. The new location is very nice. I ordered some Nigiri and some Pot Stickers. As always the service and quality is absurd“
