30 Best Japanese Restaurants in Bellevue

“Could only show 10 of the 25 dishes served! Becoming my favorite omakase in the Seattle area!“

“There was no wait for the table and upon sitting down we were treated to a light and relaxed atmosphere where the wait staff were very attentive and welcoming. The food itself was very satisfying and left nothing to be desired. I will be sure to come back and enjoy more of the same.“

“absolutely incredible — a perfect balance of indulgence and artistry. The juicy, medium-rare beef slices glisten with tenderness, while the golden tempura shrimp and vegetables add a gorgeous crunch and visual contrast. Every layer seems thoughtfully composed — from the glossy rice base to the vibrant green onions on top. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause just to admire before diving in — rich, satisfying, and full of umami harmony.“

“Very fine Japanese restaurant!“

“Best place ever!! 5 stars!! The food is incredible, best vietnamese I’ve ever had. Not only is the food incredible, but the servers are so kind! Overall a great experience and would highly recommend!!“

“daily specials are awesome. delicious food that’s so worth checking out“

“What time? It's theriyaki time. Very good food, they serve here. Absolutely amazing. Great customer service, friendly staff and very clean restaurant. They usually get my teriyaki ready within 5 minutes.
Which is very fast compared to other teriyaki places overall very good spot for a quick bite. They're doing good and I like this place. Will definitely come back again“

“First time at Toshi's Teriyaki Bellevue. Our group had a sampling of several menu items including the half chicken, the beef skewers, the shrimp skewers, teriyaki chicken & Yakisoba, potstickers and eggrolls. All were very quick to be prepared and yummy. Staff was super friendly.“

“Such an amazing place to stop in for lunch or take out for dinner! I love their gyoza's & eggrolls, they really go with anything you order. But personally the chicken teriyaki & katsu are my favorite / go to's. The lady who took our order is the most friendly / kind person, just terrific service all together. Been a recurring customer for years! Family loves the place!“

“Cozy place to enjoy Teriyaki.
Good delicious teriyaki plus other menu items

Nice friendly service.

Higher prices than average, but we are in this gorgeous nice city of Bellevue, every thing here in every where is expensive. Nothing cheap. Nothing has reasonable price.

But here the Portions are good.

Convenient place
Near QFC.
Large parking lot.“

“Recommend the chirashi, maguro, or tonkatsu bowl. The fish is fresh, tonkatsu well fried and moist inside. Portions and price reasonable. Order at counter, find seat and they bring food to you. Bus your table after. Staff polite and property is very clean. Washroom is clean. Nice model and set up. Parking is ample and free. Recommend if you are looking for fresh fish or tonkatsu donburi“

“I always go for Musashi if I decided to have some sushi for the day. Good price, good quality and big portion but… they always forget to pack my soy sauce for the sushi like most of the time when I ordered togo…luckily I do have some at home lol“

“This place gives a good amount of food for the price and it tastes great too. The staff are kind and sweet. Best Teriyaki place I’ve been to.

Kid-friendliness: The staff had no issues cleaning up a water spill from a family with two little kids and even gave the kids lollipops after they finished!“

“Great food. Great service. Highly recommended.“

“Amazing and authentic Japanese sandwiches! I recommend them all!“

“I don’t usually write reviews, as you can probably tell from my non-review status, but this Jumbo Chicken Teriyaki Box has completely changed the game for me. As someone who travels frequently for work and eats on the go, I was not only surprised but genuinely in awe of the simple yet incredible meal that was delivered to my less-than-glamorous hotel room in Seatle.

When I say "simple," I don’t mean it in a negative way—rather, it was simply perfect. The chicken, the salad—everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. I was so impressed that I feel compelled to tell others: Order from here now, and often!

It’s been two weeks since I left Seattle, and I’ve thought about this meal at least 35 times since returning home. This place is a hidden gem, and I can’t wait to get back to the West Coast so I can dine here again. For what it’s worth, I ordered from them both nights of my stay in Seattle. Highly recommend!“

“The food is amazing and the service is phenomenal! This was so good!“

“I enjoyed the high quality cuts of fish and unique dishes like the beni-tenshi parfait! Totally worth going just for dessert.“

“My wife and I absolutely LOVE this place! It is smaller and quieter than most sushi spots in Bellevue/Seattle but it is by far our favorite. We have ordered a variety of their rolls and dishes but we now have out usual order of:
Tuna Roll
Caterpillar Roll
Yellowtail Tataki

It is such a hidden gem and don’t be fooled by the “fancier” places around. This is our go to sushi spot. We are unfortunately moving out of the Bellevue area but will still try to come back at least every other week. That’s how much we love this place. The service is also kind and welcoming. Just a great spot!!“

“This was my gf and I 1st time eating here and let me tell you it was soooo good! We will definitely be frequenting this place. Thank you guys for dinner 5⭐s“

“I love everything about this place! the owners, the food, the hospitality, the atmosphere! my partner and I stumbled upon this place a few years ago and now we go every chance we get! delicious sushi, amazing sauces, huge menu. love love love!“

“We came for the pool tournament and stayed for the steak! Absolutely incredible food! Highly recommended! Hospitality and service were top notch. From the time I gave them my card I was addressed by my first name and treated like a friend. Couldn’t ask for a better night! 5 star!!“

“Hidden gem alert: Just tried Tokyo Flame Teriyaki in Lynnwood and wow—this place delivers flavor and comfort in every bite.

I ordered the chicken teriyaki combo and it was perfectly grilled, juicy, and glazed with that rich, slightly smoky sauce that makes you want to lick the container. The rice was fluffy, the veggies crisp, and the portion? Generous without being overwhelming.

The staff were super friendly and fast, and the place had a cozy, no-frills vibe that made me feel right at home. Prices are great too—definitely wallet-friendly without sacrificing quality.

If you're craving classic teriyaki done right, this spot is a must. I’ll be back for the spicy pork next time!“

“Delicious food. Excellent portions. Good friendly service. Reasonable prices. Clean spacious seating lounge.

But if something not up to your expectations.
Please talk to the owner at the casheir They will make it right to make you happy. So you can have a very good eating experience.
Convenient location, large parking lot. Lots of free parking

Highly recommend“

“We had the Katsu Don and the Odun and spring rolls. Everything was delicious! The staff was super friendly and very attentive. The restaurant had a very sleek clean look. Prices were reasonable. Would definitely recommend this fine dining experience.“

“all we got was the matcha ice cream and the black sesame and they were amazing! $5 for a large scoop that you could split between 2. If you love matcha definitely get the matcha ice cream but if you want to try something new i definitely recommend the black sesame ice cream!“

“Delicious Peruvian food, nice atmosphere and outstanding service, the best of the northwest!!“

“We had tempura udon and sushi, and it was delicious!!! The servers are super nice too. Laid back vibe. The only reason I’m putting 4 stars instead of 5 is because I ordered the “house sake cold” for $10, and when the bill came, they had charged us for a $30 bottle of sake. When we asked about it, they said they don’t have cold house sake. Could have sworn it was on the menu. They insisted it isn’t… and honestly we didn’t like the sake anyway. But we still had to pay $30. We will still go back! It’s just good to know.“

“Another great experience at Japanese Bellevue in the books.“

“We were actually on our way somewhere else to eat when we saw Joy Box and the menu. It looked good so we walked in. The food was so good. The portions are HUGE. Great value for the money. We had the seafood ramen which was super spicy in a good way and full of flavour. We had the katsu chicken bento box which was full of wonder things to try like fried dumplings, spring rolls, noodles, rice and of course katsu chicken. We had fried dumplings and beef bulgogi. Everything was delicious. The restaurant was clean and the vibe was nice. The staff was good. We highly recommend this place.“
