28 Best Japanese Restaurants in Oklahoma City

“Awaji is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. Everything we tried was excellent. The ambiance is just as impressive as the food. It's warm, stylish and inviting, with a fun energy that makes you want to stay awhile. It feels special without being stuffy or overly formal. Great food, great atmosphere, and an overall wonderful experience. Definitely one of those places you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend!“

“The food was delicious. Romantic and Beautiful Japanese Scenery. We really enjoyed ourselves.“

“The 20 course Omakase dinner was outstanding - every bite was worth it and fabulous. It started with bubbles and caviar as an amusement bouche and it just keeps going from there. My favorites were the toro uni rice hand roll, uni pasta, chawanmushi with ikura, Wagyu with quail egg, and all of the nigiri was sooo fresh. It was a fun and cozy intimate dinner with 7 seats total. They sent us home with a menu and a Polaroid picture of us attached, such a cute touch.“

“Excellent dining experience and so much fun with friends!“

“One thing about Ichiban is that it's going to hit EVERY SINGLE TIME. I order to go often to work when I want something light, fresh, and delicious. The poke bowls are highly customizable and are perfect every time. I don't know why I took so long to write a review. EVERYTHING I've had from here (poke bowls, sushi, tempura, fried rice, Thai tea) has been exceptionally good every time. ✨️✨️✨️✨️“

“Greatest dining experience in Oklahoma City ! Entertaining and delicious!“

“Been eating here foor over 10 years. Some times twice a week.. always good food. Ben the owner has a great memory of people tnat eat there.“

“I had the sashimi dinner, 1 order of inari, salmon, and salmon roe, all of which (along with the wasabi, ginger, and soy sauce) was pretty delicious. Service was pretty good, quick, and friendly.

I was looking at the restuarant decor, was talking to my server Yoriko and was pleasantly surprised to hear of Japanese people in Oklahoma, as I've lived in Texas my entire life and was only visiting for Game 7 Spurs vs OKC. With that being said, this restuarant is authentic and I recommend.“

“First let's just look how gorgeous this is right now. The detail in everything is impeccable. The fish quality, the rice, the seaweed, the crab, the cucumber, the avocado, the wasabi(fresh wasabi, not artificial tube/burning your mouth wasabi), the pickled ginger, and the soy sauce are all quality ingredients. Yes it's Kikoman soy sauce but they're actually an authentic Japanese brand. Nothing was too fishy, the salmon is fresh, the red snapper is buttery, and the texture of everything really is on point. You will not be getting mushy old ingredients here. Everything is made to order, no flavors are overpowering. You can genuinely taste the effort put into sourcing every single ingredient. Try them if you haven't. I recommend the California and the Rainbow rolls. But I know the rest are just as good because they all use the same ingredients. The staff are always extremely pleasant. They're more than just smiling faces; they are genuinely kind, caring, and take pride in their service. Even though the inside is smaller and cozy they are bustling back and forth to get orders out with grace. They can get busy at times but they're definitely worth any wait time. Good people, great food, great atmosphere/lighting, and great ingredients!“

“Love the food and atmosphere here. I know the owners - they are very hard-working. highly recommend five stars!“

“This place is perfect for the family and the quality of sushi is 10/10.“

“Food is usually really good. Tonight I waited an hour for my to go order which was fine but I don’t appreciate paying full price and not getting mushrooms or sprouts. My egg roll order was short and the yum yum sauce tasted funny. Won’t stop me from going back, just think you guys can do way better.“

“Smelled so clean, staff was amazingly inviting and not bothersome at all, the food was more than delicious, and the prices were very fair! The cherry on top was that our waitress asked US if we wanted drinks to go. We didnt have to ask her! ❤️ We did go on a Tuesday so Im not sure how they are with a busier crowd but we loved it. We will definitely be back many times!“

“Tried out this new Norman restaurant recently and the food was amazing. The place is so clean and employees were very friendly. Mostly a carry out but there are a couple tables. It is very good.“

“I enjoyed it; good service.“

“The food here is delicious, the people are very friendly, atmosphere is great too. If you’re not a sushi fan they have other options that are great like the hot bowl, Mongolian chicken hot bowl is my favorite. Once you walk in the door you’ll be glad you did.“

“It was our first time trying to eat here, but I have no doubt that we will be back very soon. We had a beyond fantastic experience! Andy provided top notch service with a great personality and the food was phenomenal! We highly recommend to anyone who has never tried this place!“

“So what its a gas station? This food is great, ive had it almost weekly for years. The chicken fried rice, egg rolls and crab ragoon are some of the best in Oklahoma. The owner is amazing and always know his customers names (,long time) sushi is made right in front of you and has a clean set up. This place needs to have delivery again haha.“

“Searched for a new sushi restaurant to try for dinner, and came across this one. Me and my husband Botha grew this is the best sushi we have had in Oklahoma. Everything taste very bright, and fresh. Service was great too! This will definitely be our new sushi spot!“

“Best sushi I’ve had in okc“

“I enjoyed it; good service.“

“I went to Penn Square Mall for the first time in a long time yesterday, and a defining part of my time was the Chicken Teriyaki! It was absolutely delicious, we got a free sample while waiting in line and I knew I needed to get it, I couldnt think of eating anything else there. So, I got it, and it was a relatively short wait considering how many people were there. Overall, the food was delightful, the people are nice, and the service was amazing! I will definetely be going back any time I am in Penn Square!“

“The chef was very funny and entertaining.“

“oyishi。zzzzz“

“This Japanese steak house has been a staple in northwest OKC for years. I have celebrated many birthdays here. The food is still very good and consistent every time. I feel like the decor has not changed either in all these years. The dried up fountains in the eating rooms might need a little refresher. Our chef was not very entertaining this last trip either. No fancy food tricks or shots of shrimp in your face. Kind of disappointing. I hope this was just a slow night and a chef in training because I have lots of love for this icon of food history in Northpark Mall. I will still return soon and hope for the best.“

“The food here is truly outstanding—so yummy and clearly made with care. But what really set the experience apart was the service. The staff were all very nice people, providing great service that was both attentive and warm. A fantastic dining experience overall that I highly recommend!“

“Very good salads and sushi 🍣 good servers“
