28 Best Japanese Restaurants near Glen Allen

“Arilang has some of the freshest fish in the area served up some gorgeous plating. The atmosphere is relaxed and quiet, the staff are super friendly and attentive. I cannot recommend this place more. Also this was one of the few spots that served up hand rolls! We will surely be returning.“

“Awesome food. Awesome service. But mostly, awesome people!!!!!!!! It’s our go to restaurant now!“

“We absolutely love Tokyo Sushi. The food is amazing and the owners are so welcoming and kind.“

“Where do I begin?! The service was so attentive and engaging. The atmosphere felt cool and trendy. But of course the food is what I came for and they did not miss. I did the omakase experience and learned what sushi is actually supposed to be. I kept thinking each round was my favorite dish, then the next one would be even better. I was stunned, blown away, overjoyed. It was literally a perfect culinary EXPERIENCE. I was perfectly stuffed by the end of the night and had a hard time walking away from the counter.“

“Kanpai‼️Awesome Happy Hour “Sake” Sushi 🍱 Bar Excellent“

“Great food and atmosphere! I would recommend coming here for the Sushi and Hibachi!“

“Miyabi has been my go-to sushi spot for almost ten years, and I have never had a bad experience. I’ve dined in, had delivery, and taken out.

The fish is always fresh. I legitimately crave half the menu every week. And the people are so personable and lovely. It’s a low-key environment with staff that care about the quality of their food and the comfort of guests.

I could not recommend you try this Main St. treasure more strongly! Just try a delivery order, and you’ll be happy.“

“After reading all the great reviews, I wanted to check this place out... and I wasn't disappointed! It's a quaint, little onigiri shop with a very friendly & welcoming atmosphere. There are so many Japanese touches everywhere for those eating inside at their limited seating & those ordering to go. The selection was simple - mostly Japanese rice balls with various types of fillings for everyone to find something you'd like. I highly recommend the spicy tuna if you can handle some spice, but two onigiri are just right to be filling for a simple lunch. I can't wait to stop by for some more rice balls the next time I'm in the area!“

“There’s rust on the buffets, the food was room temperature and the bathrooms look like they haven’t been cleaned in years. There is so much build up on the faucets and there is dried human waste smeared in the stalls. I left an entire plate of food sitting there because there was no way I was eating food prepared there after I saw the conditions presented to the public. I don’t even want to think about what the kitchen looks like.“

“Dining in for a romantic evening, family outing, friend outing and self date. The food was amazing. The waitress was pleasant and very quick. The chef was nice and very friendly and humorous.“

“I had seen several posts recommending Level Sushi - finally tried it for the first time today. It was fantastic! IYKYK. If you don’t, I hope you will try it soon. Sorry, no pics. But we tried: * Edamame appetizer * Fried Calamari appetizer * Level Sashimi Roll * Steak Bento Box Lots of leftovers and can’t wait to return.“

“Contrary to some recent reviews this place delivered exactly what I wanted. $25 after tax for a steak, shrimp, and chicken expressly cooked hibachi. Steak cooked medium for the best flavor, it definitely won out over the chicken. Shrimp was not rubbery in my experience. Large enough portion to have both lunch and dinner. Definitely will be going back.“

“Delicious! Server was so sweet and the restaurant is adorable. This place is definitely what the reviews claim it to be!“

“Kabuto’s is my favorite restaurant! But, my last experience was very disappointing. Part of the experience is to watch the show. But because there was a couple at the other end of the table (not with us), who brought babies with them, they did absolutely nothing. No fire, no volcano, absolutely nothing. Apparently they had asked the waitress if “the cook” could be quiet. I feel in this case, either don’t bring the infants, or sit alone at a table. This was not fair to the other customers. It was our 35th anniversary and I feel like we missed out on our experience.“

“This place used to be one of our favs! Unfortunately the best menu items have slowly been disappearing 💔. They used to have the BEST tots in town, but those are gone. We loved the karaage chicken but haven’t seen it the last few times we’ve gone. Their amazing chicken sandwich used to be a fried cutlet, but that has been replaced with some sort of minced chicken patty. Even their fries were replaced by inferior crinkle fries. Hope to see our favs return soon!“

“I enjoyed the show by Chef Leo and the staff was courteous and professional and most of all the food was awesome“

“Super delicious premium sushi! 🍣 Totally worth the price!“

“I just moved into this area & I love the entire shopping center the family that Own this are very friendly and patient .. everything is fresh the smoothies and the ramen and sushi are my favorite good portion size for the price ! Only thing I wish is their hours where earlier but I’ll wait because it’s just that good“

“I live Yoshi Sushi! They have always given me great service and very tasty food. I worked with sushi restaurants for about 10 years and I can say that the quality is great for the price. I always get the Tropical roll, it’s like dessert. The sushi rice is delicious, cooked just right. Nothing worse than sushi with overcooked rice. The foods that come from the kitchen are also great. Shrimp and veggie tempura, hibachi, and yaki soba are among my favorites.“

“We had excellent service. Our food was delicious. Delivered quickly. Our evening was so fun and we love this place. Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Good location Great Food“

“We came here on an ad in Reach magazine, and I'm so glad we did. We've been twice, two different days of the week, different times of the day. The service is stellar, the staff is so nice. The rolls are exactly the right size. But what really sells this restaurant is the environment. The music is low but present, the seating is comfortable, and the overall "vibe" feels inviting.

The food, without a doubt, is fantastic. While we haven't done hibachi, if it's as good as the sushi, I will have to try it soon.

Kid-friendliness: Small kids menu but very standard“

“By far the best sushi I’ve ever had. I don’t know how this place isn’t 5.0 stars. Extremely fresh. Fantastic beer and miso soup as well. Very kind staff. Rolls are great but the fish deserves to be eaten as nigiri or sashimi. Fresh real wasabi as well. This place is a must if you’re in the area and a sushi connoisseur.“

“Wok N Roll is a Restaurant I always love visiting. The Staff are always so kind and polite. The food is prepared fresh and hot and always on time. I would recommend anyone in Richmond or the surrounding areas to give them a try. They definitely deserve 5 🌟⭐⭐⭐⭐ !!!!😊“

“chicken,shrimp with rice and noodles added 🍄“

“I ordered a quick lunch pickup, a pork banh mi. It was perfect! Fresh baked bread, tender pork in a creamy peanut sauce and topped with a ton of fresh cilantro, carrot and jalapeño. I couldn't ask for more, and it was under $6!“

“Great place to eat! So many choices and something for everyone.“
