25 Best Japanese Restaurants near Waterdown

“The sushi here is absolutely delicious. The ingredients are fresh. The rice is cooked properly and the portions are good for the price. These rolls are quite big (above average) and lots of variety to choose from. Note this a takeout location only with no dining in. A great spot if you’re in the mood and looking to try something new. We’ve been multiple times now and they have been consistent. Enjoy“

“First timer at Cozy Sushi place and I was impressed by the quality of the food and the excellent service! Everything was fresh and ready on time. I received more than I ordered and now I am addicted to the tofu soup as well! If you like sushi, this is the place to go!“

“My favourite restaurant. Been here countless times and I think it's safe to say that even their worst dish would still be good. I like the older lady waitresses she's always very friendly. They have very cute decore too but tbh the food is so good I hardly notice anything around me when I'm eating there lol“

“Their sushi is amazing!! We have tried several sushi restaurants in Burlington and they are by far the best. Would highly recommend. Very friendly atmosphere“

“Service was top notch and it was evident that this was consistent throughout the restaurant as there was never NOT a smile on someones face. All of the staff are wonderful and the food is beyond delicious! This place WILL exceed your expectations.“

“Food was awesome! I’ve been there about 5 times and I’ve never been disappointed. Highly recommend the sushi. Perfect restaurant if you prefer quality over quantity.“

“Just amazing. The udon soup is so comforting, noodles are cooked perfectly, broth is delicious, and the meat has a very clean taste. Some of the best Japanese food you can get at any chain. Service is quick and chefs are very kind. You can tell they really honour their work and try to give the best quality they can. Thank you!“

“Stopped in here, craving a Won Ton soup, didn’t realize they made it here. They have a small size and a regular size. Had 1 small Won Ton soup, took a bit to prepare and the servers were nice of them to tell me to sit down (while they got it prepared) When the soup was ready, I picked it up at the counter. The soup was very good, nice and hot, with small wonton noodles (with a meat filling) tasted like a seasoned pork. Soup had pieces of broccoli throughout it, and broth was a bit salty (but tolerable) could taste the spices, ginger root and garlic added in. Tasty broth, I added pepper for taste no soya sauce. The larger dishes look good also, but they have rices, spring rolls, teriyaki dishes. I’ll have to try, cooked right in front of you (with fresh ingredients) and placed steaming hot into the container (all ready to eat in food court or take home).“

“I don't have sushi often, but this restaurant exceeded my expectations. The flavours are saucy and exquisitely blended, creating a sensation that left me craving more. The place has some bright and appealing visual with great service, that's a huge bonus for the dining experience. I highly recommend this newly opened sushi restaurant for anyone seeking a refreshing and tasty journey while in the mall.

Vegetarian options: There were some veggie options, probably 5 or so with cucumber, carrot, avocado and some spicy variations. All look and probably taste great“

“I take a 30min+ bus ride to this mall just to come to Mac's. Their avocado sushi is amazing! Nice big slices, avocado is not over or under ripe. Serving sizes are nice and big: their grab and go bar gives you 2 rolls worth. Seaweed salad was also incredible and a nice big portion size.“

“Staff was very friendly and efficient. They answered my inquiry of Mirin usage (they don't use it) over the phone kindly and with knowledge of their own product. Atmosphere was the best I've ever had a sushi restaurant. There was a nice 2 seater for my wife and I with a privacy screen. Loved it! Also they have popular anime figurines in the shop lol.“

“My date and I went in thinking they might have coffee but it’s more of a Korean tea lounge. I tried the Hokkaido milk tea and liked it ?. My friend had the peach tea but misunderstood and thought it would be like a western tea but she liked it still“
