44 Best Japanese Restaurants near Plymouth Meeting

“The best! Our weekly go to!“

“Benihanas has always been our family’s go to restaurant for special occasions or just to have a large meal.“

“The staff was absolutely lovely from the hostess to the server. The atmosphere was intimate, the decor throughout was very cool. The menu is very fairly priced and the food was incredible. I brought a friend here last night that was visiting from out of town, she can be a hard critic but she left happy. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! I will be back!“

“Toyosu offers attractive, delicious sushi, sashimi, and poke, with a focus on take-out customers—if you opt to eat at one of the few tables available, you will still receive and consume your food in plastic containers. However, you probably won’t mind because you’ll be too busy devouring crisply presented morsels of fish, prepared by aces with big-league experience.“

“Very good“

“I’m from Taiwan, and finding sushi this perfect here was such a delight! The sushi was incredibly delicious and truly authentic. The environment was quiet and peaceful — my mom and I were tired from walking, and sitting down here to enjoy such tasty, reasonably priced food made us genuinely happy. If you come across this restaurant, you absolutely have to try it!“

“Amazing restaurant with great sushi and some of the BEST RAMEN not just in the area, but in South East PA. I crave it at least 2-3 times a week and the sushi options are amazing and the fish is always top notch, fresh and cut perfectly. I love this place.“

“"Kumanon 3 is awesome! food was very good & great service! Can't wait to be back"! Bubble Tea Mango Delicious“

“My son and I just moved to the area about a month ago, and we stumbled upon FUKI — it’s quickly become our new favorite spot! My son loves ramen, and they always make it plain just the way he likes it. I usually get the salmon teriyaki, which is served beautifully seared with teriyaki sauce over onions and peppers, alongside rice — absolutely delicious. We’ve also tried the crab fried rice, and everything has been fresh, hot, and flavorful every time.

The service is quick, the staff are friendly, and the restaurant is extremely clean. We always enjoy our visits and truly wish them the best of luck. Highly recommend!“

“The best softshell cranio I’ve ever had, even better than mine, and that’s just the beginning. Never had a bad meal here. And the crepe cakes are perfect to take home for a late dessert (or next morning’s breakfast) after some time to digest.“

“My friends and I enjoyed a great meal at Takumi. The cocktails were creative and tasty and the sushi was fresh, beautifully plated and delicious. This would have been a five star experience for me had it not been for the poor service. No one came to ask us if we wanted to order a drink while we waited for the last member of our party and it took a good 10 minutes for anyone to take our drink order after that person did arrive. We ordered apps at the same time since we had been waiting. Apps came out super fast, but no one came to check on us or take our dinner order. In hindsight, we probably should have ordered our dinner at the same time as the drinks and apps. After finishing our apps and still waiting for our server, we finally flagged down another server to find her so we could order. While she did come back to check on us once after food was delivered, we spent most of the rest of our dinner having to flag her or another server down every time we needed something, including the check. I'll definitely give Takumi another chance because the food was so good, and hope for better service next time.“

“Excellent service and everything we ate was delicious. My husband and I were amazed to find such high caliber Japanese food tucked away and nearby. It’s on the level with the trendiest sushi places and izakaya spots in LA, Vegas, Manhattan and San Francisco and we are so glad that it’s right here. Also the warm and welcoming owner/chef and friendly wait staff make this our go to sushi spot. The few Korean dishes on the menu are also amazing.“

“Just moved to the area, this was our first time here. The sushi was good and crab rangoons were so crispy! It’s been a while since I’ve had good crab rangoons anywhere in Philly. All the dishes we saw served, along with our own, were colorful and creatively decorated. Our service was fast and all the staff were attentive and kind. Would definitely recommend for dining in or take out!“

“My family and I had an incredible dining experience tonight at Umai. We had a special, Kinmedai aka Golden Eye Snapper that was so fresh and tasty, out of this world good! We also had a treat with broiled tuna cheek that was also outstanding. Otoro was so velvety and rich, spicy hotate, sweet ebi, unagi, fried crabs, incredible sushi rolls, savory Akadashi (my son ordered a second it was so good) and everything else we ordered tonight was just incredible. Thanks so much to Rae and his wonderful staff for one of the best meals I've ever had - the best sushi in this area for sure and such friendly excellent service to accompany it! 🙂 Thanks for such wonderful hospitality and all the extra goodies Rae. It was wonderful to meet you and sample the fruits of your masterful culinary skills!“

“Great food , must have the tea cold tea .“

“Great price and selection for an all you can eat sushi with appetizers, tempura, sashimi, and ice cream for dessert. We've been coming here for years, and the quality and the service have always stayed consistent. We've referred many friends and family here if they love sushi at an affordable price. Highly recommended.“

“My daughter said that she was looking to have sushi for lunch today, so we decided to give Herosame in Ardmore a try. Wow, this is one of the best sushi meals we've had in the Philly area and definitely on the Main Line. I called in our takeout order and the server who took our order was very friendly and polite as was the server who brought us our order while we waited in the vestibule. We ordered the Lunch Shrimp Teriyaki Bento Box and the Lunch Triple Roll Combo. Wow! I thought they had accidentally give us another person's order as the bags were quite heavy. Both lunch specials could easily be split over two meals or at least a meal and a leftovers snack. The Lunch Shrimp Teriyaki Bento Box included a small house salad, a pint of Miso Soup, 2 Shumai, a California Roll, 6 large Teriyaki Shrimp and a pint of steamed white rice. The salad was a crisp and refreshing spring mix with thinly shredded carrots and a halved grape tomato with a delicious dressing. The Miso soup was very rich and tasty. The Shumai were delicious with a nice crisp exterior, but soft, tender and enjoyable meat inside. The California Roll was huge and stuffed with super fresh crab stick and vegetables topped off with tobiko. The Teriyaki Shrimp were just a hair overcooked, but still delicious. The Three Roll Lunch Combo featured a choice of three rolls from a list of twenty different rolls so my daughter picked the Shrimp Avocado Roll, Tempura Roll and Philly Roll. All three rolls, just like my Bento Box's California Roll were huge with the Shrimp Tempura Rolls being gigantic. One piece of the tempura roll was at least twice the size of other sushi rolls I've had. Each roll was stuffed with the traditional meats and veggie fillings. Everything was so fresh and delicious! Herosame will definitely be on our family's list for future Japanese lunches and dinners!“

“We had been wanting to try this place for a while and finally did. It's a cute little place, the service is very good, and the food is good, but the portions are very small for the most part. I ordered a miso soup, a seaweed salad, a tuna roll, a salmon roll, and a mochi ice cream and I still was not very full afterwards. You get just a little bit of seaweed salad for $5.95. The rolls are tiny. You get one small mochi cut in half for $2.50. I might order a set dinner next time or more likely go somewhere else where I can get more food for my money.“

“I got the 3 rolls special for $15.95. If you go in before 3pm, they also give you a free miso soup. My favorite was the fried calamari! So good. It’s really substantial and cheap. Worth it! Awesome service, delicious food, would love to come back next time!“

“first time ordering from there.. the food was excellent. ordering on line was easy the portions are large.. . the staff during pick up was so friendly and kind.. restaurant was very clean and in well order.. will definitely order again...“

“Great take out. Lots of choices.“

“อร่อยทุกอย่างเลยค่ะ ชอบสลัดอร่อย บริการเร็ว พนักงานบริการดี อาหารอร่อย 🫶🏻🥓🥢🥙“

“We were very impressed. Came hungry and left full. We’ll definitely be back!!“

“the waitress was super kind and friendly to us when we walked in and was super duper sweet, shout out to Katelynn, she’s da best. Food was super good, udon is amazing. Big plus when dining here cause they have an amazing playlist playing in the background 10/10 would recommend people to come dine here.“

“We’ve been coming here for almost a year and it’s 100% the best sushi in the area. Everything we’ve tried on the menu is worth getting again. Highly recommend the chicken katsu in addition to all the delicious and fresh rolls. Attentive service and the friendliest staff. This restaurant is the definition of a hidden gem.“

“This restaurant, previously named MoguMogu, is now WADAYA with the same owner and same recipe. It is an absolute fun experience to eat here. The noodles are delicious. The drinks are unique. I highly recommend the Yuzu Cocktail (and for you to play the dice game). The service will make you feel at home. You will leave happy 🍜🍹.“

“Favorite sushi place! We came from out of state because we love this restaurant so much. We've come many times, usually dine-in but also once to go. The sushi is very fresh and tasty, and reasonably priced. We especially enjoy the sweetheart roll, Godzilla roll, rose roll, and new rainbow roll! Pleasant staff and lovely atmosphere, as well. Can't recommend enough!

I didn't get pics of our most recent visit but added pictures we previously took.“

“Great service, red curry veggies with white rice and udon noodle soap with tempura was excellent!“

“The variety of food and service at Poke It Up was very good. Honestly wish I'd tried it sooner! There are different varieties of poke bowls to select from or you can make your own. The fish was very fresh and came with a healthy portion of rice. The veggies and sauce complimented the meal and the serving size (for me) was quite large so easily came for two meals. Definitely recommend!“

“It was my first time eating at Osaka Hibachi and I was very pleased with both the meal and service.
I ordered the chicken and salmon hibachi and both meats were tender.
The vegetables were cooked perfectly.
The rice was also cooked well.
My only con was the teriyaki/ hibachi sauce was a tad bit salty. Other than that- great experience and you get a lot of food!“

“Never disappoints“

“the teppanyaki grills. the skill and techniques, the style and positive energy flowing through the whole restaurant is found no where else.“

“We love Kabuto. We come all the way from Boyertown to eat here. Great service and reasonably priced. We always leave full.“

“This place is a gem. Fast and friendly service, the best ginger dressing on a house salad I have ever tasted. The freshest fish you will find on the main line. The rice was served at the perfect temperature. The owners and staff are the nicest people you will ever meet. If I could only eat at one restaurant for the rest of my life, this would be the one.“

“Best meal I have had….maybe ever!“

“Tokyo's was delicious with beautiful presentation“

“We love Yuki! They have outstanding food, from appetizers to a large selection of Sushi. We've never had a bad meal or bad service here. We have been ordering delivery once a week since the quarantine (min order of $25 to qualify). They are offering credit card payment over the phone, and the delivery man safely passed off our order from a distance while wearing gloves. Support local businesses like Yuki Sushi right now if you're able to!“

“Great tasty eclectic Japanese food“

“Honestly, this might just be one of my all-time favorite sushi spots. The Kanpachi Crudo and Crispy Tuna are absolutely outstanding. There’s also a fantastic selection of non-sushi options from the kitchen, perfect for anyone in your group who isn’t a sushi fan. The restaurant is clean, beautifully presented, kid-friendly, and, above all, serves truly exceptional food!“

“Food looks amazing, clean, nice music“

“FRESH sushi poke bowls and ramen dishes on a limited menu are fabulous. The quality of the sushi is exceptional, as are the portions. The service is wonderful and accommodating. Located in Whole Foods on the perimeter between the exterior walls and check-out registers, this is a wonderful option and addition to an already top notch source of quality food!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten-Free Ponzu Sauce available“

“I visit Kansai at least once a week. The sushi is great and the staff is friendly. Prices are reasonable. Friends I take there always love the sushi.“

“Love the sushi and all food they have.“

“Great place to eat at Assi Food Plaza. Quick and relatively cheap during these times of inflation. Lots of options to choose from. Really love their Donkatsu and the Curry Rice. The peanut dressing on their salad is top tier. Most things cost around $10 to $20. ?“
