16 Best Japanese Restaurants near Kennett Square

“Delicious place!! Our waitress was awesome.“

“We either eat in or get take out about every other week. Their rolls are excellent, my favorite are the Dragon Roll and Eel Cucumber. My fiance loves their Sushi and Sashimi dinners. Decent prices, great service. They stayed open for takeout throughout the Covid period. This is a local favorite. They have another location called GuGu Asian table just outside of town. I haven't been there but my brother says I is just as good. Recommend you purchase a take home bottle of their salad dressing. Best I've ever tasted.“

“My family and I order from here on DoorDash almost once per month. We get the giant party tray and the fish is always fresh. Each roll tastes absolutely amazing. They give you the perfect amount of soy sauce, ginger, and wasabi. Absolutely amazing good and cannot reccomend them enough!!“

“Awesome restaurant with a fantastic menu and delicious food and wonderful service from staff“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but Okura really deserves one. It’s a bit farther than I normally drive for dinner, but lately I’ve found myself going more often—because I just feel good every time I’m there. The first time I went there was in 2009 on the recommendation of a friend who used to have a Japanese restaurant. With job changes, going back to school, and plunging headfirst into a turbulent new career with multiple job changes, I never got back there until 2022. And guess what? They remembered me! The staff is genuinely friendly. They remember what I like, and a few times I’ve described dishes that weren’t on the menu—and they made them perfectly. They actually listen, and that level of care is rare. The wine and beer selection fits my tastes really well, which is a nice bonus. Every time I visit, the atmosphere is happy and relaxed. I often see other customers come in and get greeted like old friends, and it’s clear this place means something to a lot of people. It’s not just a meal—it’s a place that lifts your mood. Okura has become one of my favorite spots. Friendly people, great food, and a warm, welcoming vibe every time.“

“Inside dining was great and the hostess was very awesome and polite .“

“I really enjoyed myself. Especially on a dinner date by myself.“

“Red chicken Curry, green chicken Curry, fried pork goyza( dumplings) and prince charming sushi roll. all excellent even for 15 minute takeout drive. we really enjoy this place. I have tried many warm sushi rolls and enjoyed every one. service is great too.“

“Rice has long been our go-to place in DE for sashimi: thick cuts (as they should be), always fresh, expertly prepared. We love the wonton soup and fried rice as well, and everything we've tried from the non-sushi menu has always been a cut above. Everything tastes prepared fresh that day; the vegetables are crisp; it's never overloaded with salty, gooey sauce. So many places just cover up mushy vegetables and old rice with sugar-heavy sauce because it's what we Americans expect, but this restaurant seems to actually care about putting out quality. The staff is always courteous, too. Thank you for the lovely Valentine's Day meal my husband just brought home. You all are doing a terrific job.“

“This is by far the best sushi and thai place in west chester, and my personal favorite restaurant Ever. I visit primarily for their FRESH, filling and affordable lunch specials. The bento box, sushi sashimi combo and Thai plates are Goated, coming with their respective sides and always miso and/or savory ginger sauce green salad. I’ve been coming here frequently the past 4 years and swear by their menu. Something for everyone to try with both raw and cooked appetizers. Dont sleep on their monthly specials either, treasure box and beef pho are exceptional. The sushi combos for dinner are epic - dinner for 2, 4 or a large plate for a party- sushi cheff knows how to throw down. No rip offs here, the sushi is always fresh and has the perfect rice to fish ratio. Several vegetarian and vegan options as well for all courses! Amy was wonderful aswell as our lovely lunch waitress, always attentive and never overbearing. The music is always calming and a little jazzy at times. Interior design is neat and clean, 2 working bathrooms, great lighting from the front windows (that doesn’t blind you, but peers in as it should). There is street parking and a great parking garage arpund the corner aswell. As a college student with limited spending money who loves Thai/Japanese cuisine I recommend this place to all in the region. 10/10 , 5 stars and all love to our beautiful Tsunami ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Love everything about this menu and the people here. Extremely nice and the food is BANGIN, very affordable as well. Get that Hibachi bowl with the Yum Yum sauce your life will change.

I'd give it 5 stars if it looked cleaner inside but it's hard to care about that when everything else is so good 😭💯“

“The food is really good and the place is cool. The staff is friendly and the price is reasonable. One of my favorite places in the area!“

“We are there tonight. The food was excellent. The portions were large. We will definitely be going back again in the future.“

“There are many Asian buffets these days and while there are some top-of-the line buffets, there's plenty more than are good and there are of course some that are rough because the food isn't rotated to keep fresh food on the buffet. This buffet though is pleasantly good and it has a nice atmosphere.
I like that the buffet's atmosphere is very well done with good decor and not feeling like a generic restaurant. The service is also good and for the most part well done for a buffet as well.
The food is what you mostly expect for an Asian buffet with a mix of Chinese dishes, sushi, a Mongolian-style grill and American buffet fare. The sushi is one of the better offerings I've seen in an Asian buffet; the fish was fresh when I was there and they had an actually good variety of different maki rolls and nigiri. The Mongolian grill has some good choices and the chef does a good job cooking the food up. I did wish they had a better selection of difference sauces to tailor your dish, but what they have works. The Chinese dishes are also pretty good with the normal variety of Amero-Chinese entrees and the fruit when I visit was reasonably fresh.
Overall, this buffet has very tasty options for food and a good variety of dishes as well. For a local, this is a good buffet to visit. But not quite one I'd go out of my way to visit.“
