17 Best Japanese Restaurants near Alvin

“Just finished dinner there with my kids. Our waitress, Kelly, was very sweet and had some brain teasers for our kids. She recommended a few rolls for us and we never had an empty drink. Very sweet people and good food!!“

“Excellent good food and service, enjoyed everything about it.“

“Been here a couple of times and let me tell you guys that I have never been let down. The food is always amazing! The fish and other ingredients are very high quality and always taste so fresh. The owner, Chef Ruben, is highly skilled at what he does and offers the best customer service ever! Every time I come, I always feel welcomed as a long time friend. If you're ever in the area or need a quick pick-up, I would highly recommend this place. Being completely honest, I think I prefer this spot over an actually restaurant, it's so yummy!“

“WOW WOW WOW! If you have not visited yet, YOU ARE MISSING OUT! Finally, a REAL sushi restaurant that has impeccable service, attention to detail, and flavor to satisfy everyone in the Pearland / Manvel area! Every peice of sushi we had was incredible, and the service from Nathan was top notch as he was professional, yet down to earth with a great personality. This will be our new go to sushi spot to replace the sushi restaurant across from the HEB on 288 that gets you sick, and the other one off 288 that has three letters with horrible flavor that tastes low grade! None of them can even come close to competing with Yamamori! Y’all, THE LINE WAS OUT THE DOOR to be seated at a table so we sat at the bar on our second visit!! They flawlessly balance all of their to go orders while serving the main floor (we know because we sat at the bar)!

We will be back at least once a week, so thank you Yamamori!“

“Yoshi is my family and I’s go to spot whenever we’re craving sushi. The owners are extreamly generous and the atmosphere of the restaurant is warm and welcoming. Their menu has a wide variety of options and their sushi is incredibly fresh and delicious!“

“I had a friend visiting from out of town, and I wanted to find a nice elevated dining place in Clear Lake. Luckily, I found Masa! To summarize my review before it begins, Masa is now my destination if I am craving sushi and Japanese food. The atmosphere was elegant, which makes it stand out from other surrounding sushi restaurants. We started off with cold sake and Ahi Poké Nachos, which were crispy and delicious. My friend and I split Sushi Combo C, which features 20 pieces of assorted sushi with California and Spicy Tuna rolls. The sushi was very fresh and skillfully made. The Tamago was freshly made with the traditional chopstick method. This was the best sushi I have had since I dined at Nobu in Las Vegas. Our companions had the chicken katsu Bento Boxes because they wanted an assortment of things to try. The tempura battered shrimp and vegetables were lightly crunchy and delicate. After dinner, the four of us had a round of Ninja Drop martinis, which were tangy and sweet. The owner, Michael Zhou (pronounced "zjoe"), came over to say hi. He encouraged us to try one of his favorite items, the Ahi Tuna Tartare, which was spectacular. To finish, we had a couple of bottles of hot sake alongside some yummy mochi ice cream. Our experience was amazing. Our server, Jordan, took great care of us, and we all had a great time. I was looking for an elevated experience, and I got exactly what I was looking for and more. I can't wait to eat here again and try other things on the amazing menu!“

“Omg the broth and ramen are delicious! I love the ramen options on the menu and the prices are great! Yum!“

“This is grocery store sushi and to me, is a category on its own, and should not be compared to restaurant quality sushi. With that said, this place is so accommodating when I want a custom roll made. Always fresh. Won't get it any where else.“

“This is the place to go for AYCE SUSHI and small plates. Everything was delicious! Service was solid and drinks were good as well.“

“It is all about their teriyaki chicken here. Sarku is a chain food court restaurant, but they're not very common. If you have never had a free extra helping of that sauce on top of your chicken and rice, you have not yet lived. If you don't order chicken, rice, and veggies, then you needlessly hold up the line. Stick to the good stuff.“

“Incredible food. Incredible service. Incredible atmosphere. From the chefs, to the servers, to the hostesses, absolutely the best. Our grandchildren come from Beaumont just to eat here. The owner even ordered ingredients for a specialized drink I like. We eat here several times a month we love it so much.“

“The food is really good and the drinks are really good as well !! The passion fruit lemon drop is my fav😂🫶🏽“

“Great price for great food“

“I just love this place. We don't live over in the area, so when we are in town, we go here. The crab salad is just awesome. Hibachi is always delicious. From the show to the meal it is just great! Sushi is delicious. I never understand why lunch isn't packed! Very good pricing for lunch. I like quiet but I just don't know why they aren't busy at lunch. People don't know what they are missing!“

“This place is amazing , The food tastes so good and the service is excellent .“

“Best sushi in town by far“

“I have always loved masa but after today’s experience my whole view of this location has gone down hill. my son and I came in to have lunch and I saw the sign that said their card machine was down until 3:45. No problem that was only 20 minutes and I wasn’t in a rush. I asked the server if she would check to make sure it will come back on before we ordered (I had some cash but not to cover tip and all) and I didn’t want any of us to be stuck there because the card machine never came on. I asked before I sat down and the server said she would find for me . I over heard I guess the manager or the gentleman get angry that we were there and we should have never been sat. I left money for my drink as well as my sons- but I won’t be coming back to this location. If it was an issue- come tell me that’s why I waited before ordering.. not yell at the server and talk bad about us.“
