22 Best Japanese Restaurants near Powdersville

“Absolutely LOVE Dozo and have since they opened. The sushi is always fresh and we are always treated like family. Yes we miss Mr Mike but the cook at Powdersville is just as good!!! We will continue to support Easley and Powdersville locations for years to come. Do yourself a favor and try the kracken roll. Who knew bacon and sushi went together?!?!?!?“

“This restaurant is definitely one to check out! The food was freshly made, and quick service. The restaurant and bathrooms were very clean. I'm big on cleanliness, so this was a great to see.
The worker recommended the steak shrimp combo meal. The portion was good with two scoops of rice. The food was cooked thoroughly, and had the Japanese flavors we all love.
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is due to the cost. I think the plate was a little steep at over $17. However, with the ingredients being used, it was still not overly priced. You're not getting a deal, but you're not getting ripped off. They keep the seeds inside the zucchini, so you will notice many of these as you dive in. I am excited to come back one day to try some other plates. I will update then.“

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

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

“Excellent tasting food and great menu options.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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“

“The Malaysian Ramen is amazing!“

“Food is delicious and the service is great“

“I moved into The McClaren apts. (awesome place) about 14 months ago and discovered Otto Izakaya early on. Only 2 blocks away for me. Otto is, and has been, my go to place, especially when friends, family or business friends are visiting. Not a sole I have introduced has ever had anything but praises for the experience. If we are a small group, I always encourage dining at the bar. I have no idea who will read this, but people buy from people; and people they enjoy interacting with. I would be totally remiss if I didn't specifically mention bar manager Matt and his team behind the bar. If Matt has ever met a stranger, I missed it, as he has the personality to balance the engagement with customers, while still providing excellent customer service. Also, everything I've tried off the menu is high-grade and fresh! That's a must for me. I'd be slack if I didn't mention the awesome hard working sushi chefs, who are always open to preparing a creation to suit YOUR palate and preferences. As to other regular customers, and just my observation, but like me, they appear to have found a home away from home; a place to be comfortable, chill and let the time spent make a bad day better. I almost never take the time to give a review and especially a compliment; as I sometimes look for the negatives, as it is always so easy to criticize. So, as a native Greenvillian and business (person); and someone who believes and enjoys a five ***** experience that is reasonably priced, give Otto Izakaya a try. Whether you live in the area, or are simply visiting, when you leave you will already be thinking about when you can do this again! If you enjoy an adult beverage, be sure and stop by the bar and ask for Matt, as this master mixologist will want to know exactly what you're looking for. If you read this review and haven't stopped by, you're in for an experience catered to the way you would most enjoy it. And ladies, as I have a daughter in college, so please know whether by yourself, or in a group, you're in a safe place without being hassled and you don't have to look over shoulder (unless there is a stud sitting behind you), because Matt and the supporting staff will have your back so you can relax and enjoy. If you have a chance to meet the owner, please do, as his passion and dedication for excellence in all aspects of the business is instantly captivating. Sorry for the length of this, I was on a roll! No "pun" intended! Give it a try real soon! M.P. 😎“

“Hard to go wrong here. Can watch them make your food through a nice little window. Quality of food is good. I'd suggest substituting the ginger sauce for the shrimp sauce. I believe personally has a lot more flavor and definitely has a lot of this calories.“

“Absolutely fantastic sushi. Portions are generous too. My new favorite for sushi in Greenville.“

“We celebrated my wife's birthday with an incredible dinner full of flavor and fun. The night kicked off with fresh, beautifully prepared sushi that set the tone just right. The hibachi was perfectly grilled steak, chicken, and vegetables right off of the hot grill! We toasted with sake-Simple and satisfying. Great food, great vibes, and the best company.“

“Atmosphere is casual and inviting. The service was amazing. We started with a variety of apps. Tuna tartare, cucumber salad and edamame were all delicious, but the tacos we finished with were less desirable. Maybe next time I'll try some sushi.“

“Come eat here!!!“

“Great food and very friendly staff. It was my first time having Poke and it was wonderful!“

“Great hibachi and the sushi ain’t half bad. Customer service is ok.“

“The food was good. Steak was cooked the way we ordered. My kids loved the miso soup and sushi. The chicken was good as well. The only issue I had was that the fried calamari was awful, very overcooked. I tried a piece before I left the parking lot, and it replicated a rubber band when the batter was gone. I took it back, and they refunded the calamari. I really did appreciate that. Overall, it's really good. Just don't order the calamari.“

“Great food, drink, hospitality.“

“New to the area. We very much enjoyed the food and sake with friends. we will be back!“
