14 Best Japanese Restaurants near Mauldin

“I'm really glad I found this place. Their isn't much good take-out asian eats around here that are affordable, so this place is a great find. I've tried their small steak hibachi, philadelphia sushi, small lunch orange chicken, small lunch sesame chicken, shrimp tempura, spring rolls, and egg roll.

Orange chicken and sesame chicken were good, esp. considering the price. I willl definitely be back for their lunch deals. It's solid, and the fact you can get a pretty good portion for $6.25 and not make yourself food is great. Really affordable and yummy, but not blowing your socks off good.

Steak hibachi was okay. Steak was a little tough, but good portion of veggies. I'm not a fan of the sauce they use for hibachi.
I'm also not a big fan of their fried rice, either. Try taking it home and doctoring it yourself. It's just bland as it is. If you get their lunch meal, you can stir in the sauce into the rice and that helps a lot.
I also would not get their egg roll or their spring rolls. It's not very good, in my opinion.

Their philadelphia sushi was really good! I would go back for their sushi, as well. Rice was soft, wasabi was good, and their ginger was delicious. For the price of almost a publix $5 wednesday sushi, this was far superior.

Their shrimp tempura was also A-mazing. Extremely light and crispy.

Honestly, overall, this is really not a shabby place. I like it. Its ran by a mom and pop plus an additional cook, and their young son pops in and helps answer the register or window if the parents are tied up. It's cute. I'd keep this place on your radar for a quick and cheap meal that also scratches the asian food itch.
It's also a lot better than every other chinese take out food (I know its not chinese, but c'mon, their lunch options are definitely like chinese take-out). I recommend.“

“Great sushi, excellent service , love the place !“

“This place is a common choice for lunch during workdays. Whether you want ramen, udon, bento box, sushi, or a rice dish, they have authentic Japanese food that is absolutely delicious. The waiters are always very kind and never forget to say hello when you come in and say goodbye when you leave. It's a cozy little place and I hope to try their dinner one day. Prices are extremely reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food you get.“

“Absolutely one of the best meals we had during our trip. The presentation was top notch, staff friendly and the food exceptional. Highly recommend!!“

“Great food, friendly staff, and some of the best Ramen I’ve had a Greenville“

“Awesome drive thru with a large easy to read menu on the side of the building. Prices are fantastic. Seriously, a great meal here is cheaper than a combo at McDonalds. The staff who work there are so friendly. Really everything about this place is top notch. Discount if you pay in cash.“

“I first heard about this spot from local influencer @healthyishdani, who called it her favorite sushi place—so of course I had to try it. Absolutely did not disappoint! The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was top-notch. I can honestly say this place deserves all the hype. Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing sushi—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Service is incredible, food is amazing, and environment is very friendly! Definitely recommend other people to try it.“

“If you transplanted here and soon fell out of love with Ramen because the selection fell short, prepare to fall back in love with noodles. The flavors are fully developed. I highly recommend the scallion pancake with spicy crab. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the Paloma, so try a different cocktail, but otherwise please go support this business so they don’t leave!“

“Outstanding ramen, sushi and other goodies. The pork buns are tasty and the takoyaki was superb.“

“First time having actual traditional ramen and it was amazing! Great sushi menu, friendly service and very tasty food!“

“I loved this place, will be back very soon“

“My family and I just happened to wander into the front doors of this wonderful place and we were extremely pleased with prompt, friendly service, relatively affordable pricing (especially considering the area), and exceptionally fresh and wonderful food. The atmosphere was very upscale, but being casually dressed in blue jeans and t-shirts, we still felt very comfortable and welcome. I had the Hibachi Chicken Plate, and she had the Steak Hibachi. We split our Sushi: the “IBM Roll” and “BMW Roll” and words cannot describe how fresh and delectable everything tasted. We were astounded at the quality of food, the speed of service, the friendliness of service and it was like the cook was professionally-trained. Very nice place, if “taste” is what leads you to somewhere new. We loved it and will be back.“

“We eat here a few times a year. It’s always good. Staff is great also.“
