25 Best Japanese Restaurants near Old Hickory

“Heard mixed reviews so I decided to try for myself. The chef is from Korean so decided to try some Korean items. I had the Korean fried chicken wings and the veggie bibimbop. The wings were nice and crispy as you would expect from Korean fried chicken.the sauce was both sweet and spicy.
The Bibimbop had a bed of steamed rice pockets of veggies, topped with a fried egg.
There are things I would have done differently but overall a very solid dish. The seaweed salad is cold and unexpected in the dish.“

“Best Philly roll anywhere. Always big and tight not falling apart like other places nearby. I refuse to go anywhere else for cali rolls as well!“

“The food was great. I had the crab and cheese Rangoon appetizer and shrimp ramen bowl. Service with a smile and the prices are reasonable.“

“This was my first time trying this place with my mom, and I highly recommend it! Make sure to get there early since it gets busy quickly.

The food was delicious, and the service was great. I got the onigiri and mini chirashi bowl, and my mom got the katsu curry. I had never tried onigiri before, but theirs is amazing! The snow crab one was my favorite. The chirashi bowl and katsu curry were just as delicious, and the katsu chicken was crispy and light.

Definitely will come back!“

“I was vacationing at Nashville for the weekend and heard this place was amazing. Well, coming from Miamian foodie, this place was delicious. We had the bone marrow, crispy rice, blue fin tuna cruda, wagyu brisket, crab fried rice, and truffle fries. Amazing.“

“Sorry to say that I didn't dine here but was told that they served the best Sake in Davidson County and thus far, I would have to agree with them. The service was very pleasant and I prefer my sake hot but they also serve it cold. But by being there I discovered that it would be fun to eat there too because they do it traditionally and I hope one day to return to dine to get the experience!“

“I don't know where to begin but I guess at the beginning. From the moment we walked in and was seated, we felt welcomed. The staff knew it was our anniversary in advance so they acknowledged it throughout the night. Our waiter Eric was phenomenal! From the moment he greeted us, we knew we were in great hands. He took plenty of pictures for us and recommended various good and wine for us to try. The food was out of this world! I've never had a meal like the one I experienced at Kanye Prime. Overall, if you're looking for a place with excellent customer service and food, Kanye Prime is the place to check out.“

“This is FAST, GOOD food. It's kinda surprising how good it is. Elvis is the owner and he really knows what he's doing. High quality ingredients and you can taste it when you take your first bite. He's got his team trained well. Every single time, it's perfection.

Oh, and the cheapest place in town for scallops!

Not much on atmosphere, but I found out that most of their business is drive through. Good for them. If you're a drive through kind of person, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food here.“

“Food here is amazing and I love the coupon they have on the back of my local Kroger Register tapes. Great to save money now I can go more often. Thank you“

“Our waiter was super friendly. He had just started and had a great personality. The hibachi Chef was really talented. His food was delicious and the portions were big. The price was very reasonable for the trio. The The steak, shrimp, scallops were all cooked perfectly. The rice might’ve been the best I’ve ever had.

Parking: The restaurant is in a strip mall with lots of spots available.“

“The food is delicious ? worth the money and of course yum yum sauce so good to. Chicken and Shrimp ? Hibachi for the win comes with rice and veggies. Also, their sushi ? rolls are so good to. They have Japan house 2 in Gallatin TN we also love that one! They are both fabulous.“

“I don’t know why Nashville hasn’t been talking more about this restaurant. The food, the service, the atmosphere, and the music are fantastic.

Must orders:
1. Kumamoto Oyster: Very tender and creative, must try if you love oyster
2. Skirt Steak Tataki: perfect steak that’s so easy to chew and just slip into your stomach
3. Koji 1/2 Chicken: pleasssssssss order this one! It’s so good so juicy and so tender. The truffle fries and the koji au poivre sauce is the best combo.

I am definitely coming back!“

“O-Ku is my absolute favorite restaurant EVER! I take all my friends and family and it’s the best spot for a romantic date! The food is always so delicious and beautifully presented. The whole atmosphere is wonderful and the staff is the best service I’ve ever had. Everyone is so nice, helpful, and genuinely friendly. My favorite servers all work here and I’m not the only regular who would say the same. I love you O-Ku Nashville! Shout out to some great servers I’ve had and highly recommend: Leah (the cool environmental enthusiast), Chance (the jokester with the biggest smile), and Ally (the crafty gal with the coolest handmade earrings and the sweetest heart). Food recommendations: PLEASE try the omokase. It is a 6 course tasting meal that is different every time you come in. I’ve had the best dishes from this meal and the nigiri are always so delicious. But honestly, I recommend anything and EVERYTHING. To start- king pao Cauliflower. Hot dish- get the Tokyo chicken bowl. Sashimi- the usuzukari or hamachi carpachio. From the robata grill- kamo negi (duck breast). A sushi roll- the playboy. Also the have O-toro, Uni, and so many specialty fishes like kin medai and shima aji!!!!“

“I really love Dumpling House on Belcourt so I was stoked to learn the owners had opened up shop close by the house. The dumplings are fantastic! So glad to have them here! Y'all go! #FoodiesOfNashville

?: spicy pork dumplings & cold noodles w/ peanut sauce!! ?“

“Would recommend the chicken hibachi , sukiyaki chicken and the sushi is super tasty! Tried this place for the first time and it didn’t disappoint ! I regret not trying it sooner ! Food was hot and delicious , will def be coming back .“

“Tried this place today after the gym and I’m so upset I haven’t tried it before. I usually dislike tofu but their tofu is on point! I bought a Junior bowl as a huge meal isn’t what I was looking for and it’s the perfect amount for a late lunch. With a side of edamame and a drink you can’t beat the cost and quality. The staff was so nice while I was waiting. Establishment is clean and a good place to sit and eat. They even have outside seating. I ordered online, super smooth process.“
