50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Aloha

“Absolutely love Sakura! This spot is a go-to for amazing food, especially their crab puffs—hands down the best I’ve ever had. They’re handmade, super crispy, and packed with flavor. The veggie rolls are fresh and delicious, and their spicy noodles have just the right amount of heat to keep you coming back.

They’re also open late, which is perfect for those evening cravings. Bonus: they even have the lottery, so you can grab a bite and test your luck. Highly recommend!“

“The best gluten free ramen. The service and atmosphere are perfect here and I will continue to visit anytime I’m in town. 10/10 ❤️ Wish they had more locations!!“

“Anyone can seemingly make sushi seem better by making it more complex, but the real test is whether they can take the simple and make it excellent. Sushi-Ki-ichi does just that. They stick to the simple offerings, leading to an experience that feels less Americanized than other Japanese restaurants. That's not to say I don't love some level of creativity, but you don't need it here. That's because the family that owns Sushi Ki-ichi wants to create an authentic meal - a notion that was confirmed for sure when we had a conversation with the owner. In fact, they take quality to the next level with their equipment and efforts they take to make sure that what they serve is the highest quality, including specific freezers for the fish. We didn't try Sushi Ki-ichi for the first couple of years because we figured that the previous restaurant, a Chinese buffet that had gone downhill and fallen off the cliff, had rebranded and reopened as something new. Now I feel that for those first couple of years, we missed out. This has quickly become my favorite place in Portland. I look forward to any trips I take across town from Vancouver to Tigard, and make a point to stop in and grab a bite.“

“As a Washington resident traveling to Portland often, I must say this is my all time favorite! The staff, atmosphere, location, and most importantly the amazing food is beyond 5 star! I will continue to come back and highly recommend the chicken katsu donburi it’s my favorite 🙂“

“Have been dining in this gem for nearly 2 decades. Always top notch with diversity, quality and amazing service. This time the food wasn't as great (seems nigiri wasn't as fresh), service was bad. Keeping high rating hoping this is one off“

“I enjoy taking my wife here to spoil ourselves. I have had many kinds of Ramen from different places, this will always be a favorite. If you are even the slightest curious about trying the place, seriously, do so. You won't leave hungry.“

“So excited to have another place with vegetarian and vegan sushi in the area! The sushi was good. I do wish they would label their menu so it’s easier to know what appetizers/non-sushi items are vegetarian — there’s a ton of stuff that seems vegetarian, but it’s always hard to know if they’re using sauces or seasonings that have fish.“

“The food was just ok. Too much rice around the rolls. It was almost all rice. We ended up picking at each roll to take out the rice. Spider rolls and tempura was not crispy. Service was ok. Waiter was came and asked if I wanted more water, but never came back. Our two dishes were $45. Probably will kept go back.“

“Very delicious teriyaki sauce that goes great with the chicken and yakisoba, which is what I got. Highly recommend the pot stickers and literally everything else. The price per person was about 11$ and they give you very generous portions, enough to fill you and then some. The workers are super friendly and nice, definitely coming back often!“

“Of all the cities I have eaten sushi in 40 years including Tokyo London New York Los Angeles and too many others to list, THIS IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER ENJOYED!!“

“Sho is our favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. Katsu and his team are awesome.“

“A medium sized izakaya Raman shop perfect for an informal dinner.

The three appetizers we had were pretty good, the karage was crunchy and juicy on the inside. What the breading lacked in flavor the zesty Mayo made up for in character. 7.5/10

The ramen was served with excellent portions and at a normal Portland price, about 15 bucks before add-ons. I always add on an egg for good measure. My wife and I both ordered the signature ramen on the menu and it was good, somewhat mild in flavor but still rich. You can tell the tare is made in house and with care. 7.5/10

The service was excellent, considering the price and atmosphere of the restaurant. Wait staff were attentive in picking up plates that were used and quickly serving food. 9/10

The ambiance is nothing to write home about, this isn't a dining experience, this is your local delicious ramen spot. Now Beyonce was frankly unremarkable and that's okay. 6/10

All in all, if a friend wanted to check it out or wanted to eat there, I'd happily oblige. But I've got my own ramen spot closer to my house that I enjoy more so I won't be returning regularly.“

“Small place with absolutely delicious food. Good portions for what you pay. The young lady working the counter was super cheerful and kind. Will return!

Kid-friendliness: My daughter was with me (9 years old at the time) and loved it.

Wheelchair accessibility: Doesn't have an automatic door that I noticed, but it is on the first floor and the door is wide enough to handle a wheelchair. The counter and several tables are lower to the ground, so the whole thing overall is pretty accessible as long the person in the wheelchair can handle opening the door.“

“My husband always orders to go, and their daily special! He loves it. I have been coming here with my son and we are delighted. The food is always what it's pictured. Great taste. They have free miso soup if dining in.. The environment is calm and quiet.

Parking: This location has several restaurants around, so yes, they have a pretty big parking lot to park.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Inexpensive sushi, large quantity, and great taste. $17 for all that fish in the chirashi bowl.. won’t find that anywhere else. Recently I just had their spicy creamy scallops nigiri and man sooo 🤤🤤 🤤“

“Always fresh and yum!“

“Call ahead and get your grind on at home. Please support your favorite Mama 😉“

“Love this place!! Been here many (20+) times. This is our "GO TO" spot for Teriyaki style food in Hillsboro. Very nice Owner/operator (assuming since I've only seen him and the cook working)... Food is very constantly good!!! The soup is awesome! It has a to-go vibe atmosphere.... Again, great food!!!“

“Fresh food at a reasonable price, loved my own pot of green tea:). I’ll be back!“

“Probably the best sushi EVER!!!! Rolls are massive.“

“A Delightful Experience at Takumi Sushi & Sake Bar

We had a wonderful dining experience at Takumi in Hillsboro, Oregon. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm and attentive. The parking was easy, and the atmosphere around the area is lovely, perfect for a relaxing meal out.

We ordered the Bento Box and the Flaming Jack Roll, which truly lived up to its name! The roll was brought to our table still flaming (such a fun presentation, see photo), and everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The bento box was delicious and well-balanced, with a great variety of items.

As a sweet ending, we had the mango ice cream for dessert, a charming touch that made the whole experience even more memorable.

The chef himself (or someone who seemed like the chef) personally brought our food to the table, adding an extra layer of care to the service.

If you’re looking for quality sushi and a special experience, Takumi is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“It has been a long time since I’ve gone to a teriyaki restaurant because my wife has resisted it. Our friends wanted to go here and, I was excited, and my wife agreed. We both had the chicken teriyaki lunch special, which come with chicken teriyaki on a bed of white rice, a side of either sweet and sour chicken or three pot stickers, and a small side salad with a house dressing. I just assumed the sweet and sour chicken was what I receive in a Chinese restaurant. Boy was I wrong! It was like way over cooked fried chicken. It was so hard that it was difficult to eat and there was absolutely no sweet or sour flavor. My wife said the pot stickers were soft but did not taste very good. Fortunately, the teriyaki chicken was very good and adding the sauce to the rice made the rice very good. The house sauce on the salad was very good. The lunch special came with a soft drink and the entire lunch was $13.50. The lady behind the counter was very nice but speaks Japanese and very little English. I tried to tell her the chicken was almost inedible but she had no idea what I was saying. We do not live in Portland so there is almost no chance we will eat there again but I would recommend the chicken teriyaki with fried rice, which our friends had and they said it was very good.“

“I have Koya on my list for a while and finally dined there. It was such a great experience! We were able to sit right away at the sushi bar. The miso soup to start is very refreshing. Toro Party and Nigiri are so fresh. I love the thick cut they do on the sashimi. I Would definitely recommend and come back.“

“We ordered sushi burritos from this food cart, which had recently increased their prices by $5. We were hesitant to order at first, but we caved because we were craving them and one of us had never tried them before.The service was great! They were out of chicken, but they offered to make us a custom burrito for a small upcharge. However, they later found that they had enough chicken after all, so we didn't have to pay extra.The wrap itself didn't hold up very well. It came apart a few times, which made eating the burrito a bit messy. The seaweed didn't wrap around the sushi fully, which also contributed to the messiness. The parchment paper was also a bit weak, which made it difficult to hold the burrito together.Overall, the food was delicious and filling. However, we don't think it's worth the new price of $15 for a food cart item. We would be more likely to order it again if it was priced at $12. The price increase from $10 to $15 is a bit steep, and we think it's not quite worth the extra money for a food cart item.“

“Is it just a sushi bar? No, it’s much more. They have a wide and varied menu. Many cooked dishes, pork, beef, fish, noodles. All cooked to perfection. Get a seat at the bar and watch the two sushi chefs creating their magic. Great restaurant. A must try if you’re in Hillsboro.“

“After googling multiple East Asia restaurants to dine at the winner was Tasty Teriyaki!

When walking in I immediately felt a warm homey vibe!

I was greeted and ordered within seconds upon walking in.

Today I ordered:
(Appetizer)
Spring Rolls
Fried vegetable spring rolls with a side of sweet and sour sauce.
Four come in the order and they are cooked to perfection, flakey yet the perfect crunch!

(Main Dish)
Tofu Teriyaki
Stir-fried tofu in teriyaki sauce with two scoops of rice and salad!
The portion size is definitely worth every penny!
The tofu was cooked to perfection as well as the rice and cabbage blend.

My pallet was shocked at how each entree complimented the other.

The service was amazing as well as the food!

It was exceptionally clean as well as a peaceful and homie place to eat!

When I come back through the area I will for sure be stopping in to have another meal here!

Thanks for the amazing food!

“I go here often & today, 8-7-24, my cashier was Rubi and the cook and her were awesome and so was the food. Good portions, fresh and very friendly. I got the chicken bento with lots of cabbage which I like. I highly recommend them. I usually go in around 10:30 - 11 to get my lunch and miss the rush hr.“

“The food was absolute amazing. Best i ever had!!�“

“I just ordered delivery from Lu’s through DoorDash, and it was my first time trying their food. It was SO GOOD!! Best meal I’ve had in a long while! I got the chicken thigh yakisoba and it was flavorful, tasted fresh, and wasn’t soggy like some yakisoba tends to be. Thank you for making delicious food and staying open for delivery during the COVID outbreak! Definitely a new favorite, highly recommend!! 💕 Great price too!“

“Food is great, service is friendly.

Our only bad experience was when we tried to order through grubhub/ubereats. Some sort of mix up that the staff refused to correct.

Just phone in and pick up it up yourself, and you'll be treated to the best chicken katsu in town.“

“On March 6, 2021 we ordered catering services from Zen teriyaki and Beaverton. The quality of service and food was amazing and the price point was spot on as well. We ordered their standard catering package and added on salad and 20 Eggrolls total cost before tipping was about $170.00. This was enough good for about 16 people. We only had 12 people, we ate the rest the next day as leftovers. I will use them in the future and I would highly recommend them to anybody who is looking for high-quality food with great service.“

“My favorite sushi spot and a cedar mill staple I’ve frequented for over 10 years now. Fish is always fresh and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Delicious food and very kind owners. Highly recommend the sesame chicken and sushi dinner combo ‘A’. Their miso soup is my favorite!“

“First & foremost, the customer service here is world class. The kind lady at the front taking orders answered all of my many questions about what was vegan & did not look annoyed even after several followup questions. While the restaurant has a vegetarian section, it does not label vegan options clearly. But they are more than happy to let you know what is vegan if you ask. Just make sure to specify you are vegan & provide a quick explanation of how vegan is different than vegetarian. They use vegetable oil to cook food. If you also have an issue with MSG like I do, your only option will likely be the tofu plate, which is what I got. It was great & had a lot more flavor than I anticipated. Will absolutely be getting it again in the future! If you are just vegan, here's the options: - tofu plate (pan fried tofu, white rice, & steamed broccoli, carrots, & cabbage) - tofu yakisoba - vegetable yakisoba - hot & spicy tofu - hot & spicy vegetable - tofu fried rice (not on menu, but it is available) - tofu fried rice - steamed vegetables & rice NOTE: the tofu katsu is NOT vegan“

“Food was great, service was outstanding, and the price was right!!! I will become a regular.“

“If you’re a sushi lover like me, this place is a must-visit! I can’t get enough of it, haha. And let me tell you, their salmon is absolutely incredible. Every salmon I ordered was super fresh and flavorful. I even got 5pairs of nigiri to take home for my kids, and they devoured it in no time!“

“The food was good, tasty, and the servings were generous.
We were there on a Saturday evening on May 31 at 7 pm and the place was full, and people kept coming in. It seems very popular. We are from out of the area and just tried it randomly. We were satisfied enough that we were motivated to write a review.
The atmosphere has a cafeteria feel to it. It seems that they do a lot of take out. You order your food at the counter and then go sit down and wait for your food. So that is why I gave it 3/10 for atmosphere. But it is clean, and if you are in a hurry but still want to sit down in a restaurant, this place is great.“

“The karaage chicken is extremely flavorful and tender, while also being crispy. Mix in some gyoza and you've got the perfect meal. Great portion size, especially for the price. The pickled cabbage could use a bit more pickling to really stand up to the richness of the chicken, but it felt very Japanese in that it was more delicately flavored.This cart pod has tons of seating, booze, and way too many vegan places.“

“Very Authentic. Super nice and appreciative waiter. Hard working gal. Food is super fresh and deliciously flavorful. The Chef that made my seared salmón killed the presentation and the taste was phenomenal. I'd give it 10 stars if I could“

“This was my first time and it was very good and the service was amazing ✌️“

“Some of the best Asian fusion that I’ve had in a very long time.“

“My lady and I LOVE trying new sushi places, and we are SO Happy we found Shoten! The staff are incredible, and the serving sized of the sashimi are amazing! First time we did not finish all of our fish in one sitting! Very fresh, clean, and great deal for the price! We will be returning, get used to us! 😁“

“Great food, fresh and tasty. Service is quick and good, owner is friendly and generous . Clean and closy restaurant .“

“Absolutely the most delicious sushi I’ve had in years!!!“

“Yum... early lunch for the goons 🥸🥸🐔🍲🍛 This was the jacks plate.. 🈹️🐉🏮🎎 #Dfooddude #pdxfood #foodblog #checkmeout“

“The rolls here are great! I typically get the Takuma roll and the Oregon roll, and they're both incredibly flavorful. I also really love the portions for the price, I can get two rolls for about $26- which is way cheaper than other sushi places in Hillsboro. The service is great, and it's a nice little location. I'd definitely recommend this to any sushi lovers looking to try something new.“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE, if you come try their custard filled bread (the one with cute little eyes)! It's to die for! They also have a few selections in the morning for sandwiches priced at about 4.25 for half a tonkatsu and somewhere around $8 for a whole one.“

“This is a lowkey spot my wife and I like to go to from time to time. As good as the food is, It’s surprisingly not busy every time I’m here. Service is great, food comes out hot, ready and quick. They have really good chicken teriyaki with the best teriyaki sauce!“

“This was my first here. I've been to many sushi spots in Oregon. I should have given this wonderful, friendly and delicious place alot sooner.
The staff is amazing! Very kind and attentive. The conveyor belt is full of fresh delicious sushi, sashimi, dessert and fruit.
Everything was fresh and delicious. We will be back.
Thank you for a wonderful dinner.

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting a local Chinese restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious! The portions were generous and the prices were very reasonable. The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly and attentive. The dishes we tried were full of flavor and had a great variety of vegetables and meats. The sauces were flavorful and the fried rice was cooked perfectly. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious and affordable Chinese food experience.“

“super friendly staff and awesome manager who didn't blink an eye and replaced my mom and aunts order to accommodate their health conditions. bomb food and and super fast serve time. will be back again Special shout out to Damont for being an awesome manager!“
