13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Quantico

“Nice flavors and properly prepared (Moms dish - chicken & broccoli). I had the Bi Bem Bop. Flavors were good. I do prefer the more traditional hot bowl to crisp the rice with other ingredients hot. But this was still a nice BBB.“

“Amazing food, extremely generous portions. We got the chicken/beef hibachi and this was the best I’ve had in Virginia. The owners are super nice and made sure we were taken care of. I will definitely be coming back and trying the rest of their menu!“

“Wow! New chef Jason is a rockstar. Best meal at hibachi ever. No extra sauce, just cooked to perfection with the right amount of flavor.“

“I’ve been going here for years and it just gets better . The food the atmosphere the wait staff is all great ! Love to take family here for gatherings . Highly recommend.“

“I first visited i ❤️ teriyaki the day they opened. Found them by accident that day. I have been coming back ever since. The food is excellent, large portions, and the owner john is very nice. My daughters, who are all grown up now, ask to go here when they are in town. So i recommend this establishment wholeheartedly.“

“The talent and creativity intertwined with the freshness equals culinary excellence! Thank You Sony!“

“Love so much of their menu - from the cocktail Japanese Slipper to their bento boxes to their ramen (I always ask for extra egg) to their sushi and sashimi and more.“

“So good�“

“As authentic as it gets. Highly recommend the spicy chicken halal ramen. The broth had a great flavor and there was a generous portion of noodles. Most ramen places in the DMV play it safe with a high sodium broth and offer chili oil on the side, it was nice to have something different.“

“Love the Garlic Twin“

“Food tastes amazing as always and very large amounts of food. However I’ve occasionally ordered take out from here and when it comes to take out it’s not the best experience. I pre ordered through my phone and when I arrive this has been the third time they say my order was already made and given out. I’m assuming other customers are taking more than just their order. It’s easier to just order there and wait for your food. I ordered at 6:36 pm and arrived at 7 to give them enough time. I arrived and the cashier says they’re working on my order still; okay I sit down and wait and I see tickets being cleared and called out. I go to the person expediting the food and she says “ no I made that order along time ago and her face just got shifted. I said he’ll I’ve been waiting and she had even told me to wait till my name was called out so when I approached her again that’s when she kept saying she gave it to someone else. Took her a while to tell the staff to remake my ticket. I know how annoying this must be and how dishonest customers can be and want to lie to take more food. I felt her attitude change and her staff looked a little nervous. I tried to ease her up as I didn’t mind waiting I just wanted the food. I know it’s not her fault again and customers screw businesses over by taking other customers orders. I believe for how busy it seems at this location they should have a better system in place or at least have customers have to verify their orders before just saying it’s theirs without any conformation. Again great tasting food , workers are very hard working, love this place but when it comes to take out I suggest just order in person and wait for food instead of the app.

Vegetarian options: Accommodations are met“

“I went there around 6 p.m. on a weekday, and the place was already packed. The food was warm, which was nice. One thing I wish they had was disposable gloves for picking up food. Some of the serving utensils were a bit sticky, and it felt uncomfortable holding them with bare hands.

This place isn’t really a Chinese buffet. It feels more like a general buffet that also caters to the Latino community. They didn’t even have fried rice; you cannot NOT have fried rice at a chinese buffet. They also had sushi, which honestly wasn’t great, but I didn’t go there for sushi anyway.

One thing that really stood out was the imitation crab soup. It was really good, and you don’t usually see that kind of soup at a buffet like this, so I was impressed. Other than that, it felt like a typical buffet experience but a little less.

For the price and the variety, I’d give it four stars, but I wouldn’t call it a Chinese buffet, just a buffet overall.“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but Mandarin Court inspired me in the same way a flat tire inspires you to learn how to change one — out of necessity… except this time, it was a pleasant surprise necessity.

This was, without question, one of the most unexpectedly memorable Chinese food experiences I’ve had.

The General Tso’s chicken was impressively subtle and balanced — a culinary achievement, really, considering the dish is normally known for being overpowering. It had that comforting, reheated-in-the-best-way feel, like leftovers that somehow taste even better the next day. They even served it in the same container it was warmed in, which honestly made it feel cozy and unpretentious — like eating something straight from the kitchen before it even has time to cool down.

The fried rice was… unique. Not your standard heavy, greasy version — more like a time capsule of classic takeout flavors. It felt intentional. Retro, even. The fried beef? Minimalist. Deep-fried breading with just enough beef inside to keep you guessing. Calling it “fried beef” might undersell the artistry. “Breaded air sticks with beef rumors” still applies — but in that avant-garde, less-is-more kind of way.

Food aside, the aesthetics of the place give off strong “no-frills, all-focus-on-the-food” energy. The floors and simple interior lean lived-in rather than flashy, and the cool dining room temperature? Let’s call it invigorating. Like a bus stop in January — but you’re waiting for something worth it.

I went in thinking, “How bad could it be?” and left thinking, “Well… that was definitely an experience.”

Would I recommend it? If you appreciate character, commitment to simplicity, and a dining story you won’t forget — absolutely.“
