50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Worthington

“I went to the soft opening today and was blown away with how great everything was. From friendly counter staff to beyond amazing food! I can’t wait for the Grand Opening because all of my coworkers were jealous when I brought my food back to work. Also excited to take my family there! Great job all around!“

“I cannot recommend Song Lan more! I cannot believe this evening was my first time stopping in. I’ve been meaning to check it out for quite some time. However, I organized a meetup for dinner at North Market before a comedy show in Bridge Park and North Market was unexpectedly closed for a private event. A friend and I went separate ways to find a place that could get 10 of us in last minute. The staff was so kind and sat us in a beautiful back room. Our waitress was so kind, the atmosphere was perfect, and the food was out of this world amazing! Cannot wait to go back!“

“We (5 people) ate an early dinner here yesterday. Nice ambiance. We tried a large selection: edamame, ebi shumai, salmon onigiri, fried squid, ebi tempura, miso ramen, chicken katsu bento box, tonkotsu ramen, teriyaki don, red bean ice cream and sasadango. Everything was delicious. Our youngest liked it so much, we’re coming back for their birthday. Our server Natalie was wonderful also.“

“there food is good I have had it 3 times and I loved it“

“My husband and I went for his 40th birthday. We've been looking for a place to get some authentic Japanese food, and we finally found it. He got the okonomiyaki (so incredibly hard to find in the states) and I got the pork katsu dinner. Best katsu I've had in the states! I cannot gush enough about how good the food was. The staff were diligent and attentive, service was timely, and atmosphere was bright and clean. 10 out 10, would recommend“

“Great food with large portions. Service was excellent and most importantly the place was very clean!“

“We went for a late lunch early dinner and the prices were really good. The food was good, the chef very personable, the atmosphere could've been better. Unfortunately, some parents just allow their children to run around, yelling and goofing off. Definitely a lack of parenting! It was the only negative.“

“The ramen 🍜 & udon 🍜 is 🌟“

“Yummy roll and crazy tuna roll :)“

“Best hibachi in Columbus. I have gone here for lunch consistently for a couple of months, and everytime I eat it in the office someone comments on how good it smells. Each week it seems like another coworker wants to try it and they have never disappointed! Their chicken is always tender and fresh, the steak is legit and their veggies are always perfectly cooked. Cannot recommend it enough!“

“Came in today for a late lunch before driving back home to the Youngstown area. I eat here maybe 5-8 times a year depending on my travel schedule and Kyoto has never let me down...today was simply another great meal. Splurged with the Fillet and Scallop Combo with the egg yolk sauce for the scallops and it was all cooked perfectly.“

“The food is made fresh and it is Delicious 😋“

“Always extremely delicious food! The people are amazing! They are always very nice and if you ask politely you can get some extra sauce on your meal! Every time my wife and I come to the mall, we eat here. This place definitely beats out the other places around the food court.“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The food at Domo is excellent! Sushi is fresh and tasty, menu is creative, and the atmosphere is fun! We recently celebrated there with a big group, and everyone raved about the food and had such a great time. Staff was attentive and friendly too! So happy we chose Domo!“

“Service was kind, quick, accurate. the atmosphere was very chill. The food was immaculate. Great prices too! Will definitely come again!!“

“Delicious. Love everything!“

“I love the lady at the front - she's phenomenal ☺️ this place has the best rice -lawwwwddd it's cooked just right - they are literally the best hibachi place I've had in a while !! 5stars ! ( Try it you will NOT regret it )“

“First time at a House of Japan. It was Expensive but good quality and portion. The show was nice and the chef engaged with the patrons. I love when bean sprouts are in season they are my favorite hibachi vegetable. The protein is cooked like requested and is seasoned well. The yum yum has almost no flavor so I'll pass on that next time. But If you want a happy birthday or anything for the bday patron, it's all extra $$ even if you just want a song. The children were entertained for being so young but overall it was a good experience. Oh the bathrooms are cleanly and nice too.“

“Great neighborhood take out restaurant. Chicken lo mein, crab rangoons, and won ton soup is really good. First time getting Mongolian chicken here- ordered medium spicey and that was great but other than that the chicken didnt have much flavor. Have ordered here before and likely will again. Good service and good food.“

“Went for lunch had the steak and shrimp it was very tasty. I could take or leave the yum yum. The ginger sauce was delicious. But the food was so good it didn't need any sauce. The portions are huge. Also had the crab rangoons they were delicious too.“

“The bubble tea is so yummy!! I'm always here 😊 usually once a week“

“We were blown away by the quality of the sushi and the exceptional service at Sushi Factory. The staff were friendly and very attentive, and the food was truly exceptional. We will be recommending this spot to everyone we know! We have been going here for years but things have gotten EVEN better and the food was beyond delicious. Highly recommended!!! 10/10!“

“I ordered a teriyaki chicken kid meal coming with an egg roll and a can of soda. The teriyaki chicken tasted amazing without too much salt and oil. The juicy cabbage improved the taste.
The room was clean. WiFi was available. Service was fast. There were also sushi rolls, daily specials, and lunch specials.“

“Love this place. Highly recommend the shrimp gyoza and pineapple sticky rice. Everything here is great though.“

“Order was ready super fast and the quality is superb! Love all the options available. Friendly staff and clean eat in/out area!“

“Everything we have tried has been fantastic. We’ve only ordered takeout so I can only imagine it would be even better in house. Their rolls, hibachi and rock shrimp are sooo good!! Will definitely be giving Oishii our business again and again.“

“Love 💕 the taste, great place to eat!“

“The onigiri is absolutely amazing, everything is flavorful and beautifully proportioned. Love the extra mile that they do to for carry out packaging. Very authentic flavors.“

“The service is incredible, and the choices ARE AMAZING!“

“Absolutely amazing food and the sushi is the best I’ve had by far.“

“Great service - great food! Hot and fresh!“

“Went here for a company lunch outing and overall had a great experience. The food and service were both solid—our party of 8 was well taken care of, and everyone enjoyed their meals. Our chef was friendly and entertaining, doing all the classic hibachi tricks and gags. While not quite as impressive as some chefs I've seen at other Japanese steakhouses, he still made it fun. The only downside was that they were actively training staff at the table directly behind us during our lunch, which felt a bit out of place and slightly distracting. Otherwise, a good spot for group dining.“

“I have never had anything here that wasn't delicious. Mr. Kim is absolutely exceptional! He always remembers my son and is so kind to us every single time! He was pretty busy this evening but still made the time to say Happy birthday to my kiddo and the food was still top notch. As long as Mr. Kim is there, this will remain my favorite sushi spot. 🍣“

“This new Hibachi fast food restaurant got great hibachi combos with reasonable prices and great sizes. The steak hibachi had the same price as the chicken. The steak was great with a medium temperature, but the fried rice was too salty. Yum yum sauce was great.
Service was fast and friendly. WiFi was not available. The room was small without a restroom.“

“First time dining. Crab Rangoon was incredible. Mongolian Beef Delish and Seaweed Cucumber Salad was fantastic. Generous portions“

“We had a VIP after party event at the Switch. Everyone at Crafted for You was great to work with and the event was enjoyed by all of our guests. Nice venue!“

“My son and I visited this location this past Sunday, and we were not disappointed. All the dishes we had were wonderful. This was some of the best asian cuisine we have had in quite sometime. Nothing was greasy or overly salty. It was also one of the better restaurant experiences we have had in a few months. The staff was friendly and attentive.“

“Amazing sushi and great staff! Definitely come check it out“

“Soooo good! Came here before walking to Kemba for a concert! I like how Kooma is tucked away to the side. Quiet vibe, kind staff, delicious food. My friend and I were sat promptly and each ordered three rolls. All absolutely incredible! I will be back to try some of their hot items. 🤩“

“The staff here was amazing! So friendly and warm. The food was so good, I can't see myself having sushi anywhere else in Columbus for a LONG time!“
