50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Edmonds

“Wow!!! New favorite teriyaki place hands down! And they have so many other things, all done super well! Teriyaki had a really smokey quality to it that was so delicious, and the katsu and curry was spectacular! I saw their Korean Fried Chicken being served and it was top notch. Nothing here is done lazy, it's all taken seriously and the gal at the counter has a hilarious sense of humor! Will be back!“

“Manna has the best Teriyaki and Korean in town, maybe even the whole Puget sound region!

Manna is family owned, run and operated, and they genuinely care about the quality of their food and the happiness of their customers. This place is a gem of the Seattle area and I hope they can continue serving great food and service for years to come.“

“Screw all the bad reviews, they don’t have taste buds. Good restaurant, consistent quality, not over-greased or skimpy with their portions! Which is a rarity nowadays.. the cost of goods has incentivized most restaurants to portion control down to the penny, so it’s good to experience one that isn’t about all that.

It ain’t dumb cheap, but it’s once again met with decent portions. Been eating here well over five years👌“

“5 Corners teriyaki has been one of me and my family’s places to eat. (Until recently) we bought some teriyaki on New Year’s Eve and the transaction still went through. It was 50 dollars worth of food so you think they would refund it, right? Nope the 50 dollar refund wasn’t possible because the guy working there didn’t understand what we were talking about.“

“I had Toshi's for the first time today after walking past it for almost two years. It was delicious! Fast and friendly service. wish I had stopped in sooner.“

“Very friendly staff, helped answer any questions we had. Extremely clean environment. The food was excellent, their specials were creative, and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Highly recommend.“

“It was everything I expected. The food was delicious! Thank you very much!“

“A great spot for authentic kaiseki in Seattle. The dishes are creative and the presentation is thoughtful, extending to the beautiful ceramics and plating. It’s a quiet, intimate space that’s perfect for a focused meal or a date. Service was excellent and professional. They apply an automatic 20% service charge but don’t ask for tips on top of that, which simplifies the end of the meal. I’m looking forward to returning.“

“Love LOVE this place. I used to love their Kirkland location and was sad when I moved away, so I was absolutely ecstatic that they opened a Ballard location. The rolls are affordable and tasty, and the wine pours are the most generous in Ballard.“

“🥰🥰sushi、 ramen、Hibachi，Chinese wok“

“We lived in Japan and Akebono is for us as good as many of the restaurants we went to in Japan. If you are vegetarian you might enjoy the Inari Breeze Roll! We used to live near Inari - and my favorite sushi is Inari Sushi - they have that also but the Inari Breeze Roll has avacado, spring and cooked onions and tofu. Oh it's so good. So is the shrimp tempura appetizer, the salad, the Agedashi tofu and my husband love the Salmon Trio. I'm sure whatever you choose will be delcious. The atmosphere is very nice and it is very clean.“

“Toyota Sushi is a gem in our community! As a family-owned business, they truly go above and beyond to make every visit special. Their food is consistently amazing, with fresh ingredients and beautifully crafted dishes that never disappoint. The service is top-notch—always accommodating, friendly, and attentive to every detail. I've been a loyal customer for a while now, and I can confidently say I've never had a less-than-excellent experience here. If you're looking for a sushi spot that combines great food with warm, personalized service, Toyota Sushi is the place to go. Highly recommended! Five stars all the way. Ps. We love our Tia Helen ❤️“

“We visited this sushi place from Vancouver because we heard so many good things about it and it did NOT disappoint!! The owner is so kind and welcoming, and the fish is fresh even compared with the best Vancouver places. Get their special rolls!“

“I love this place. I stopped randomly on my way north as I was looking for a place to charge my EV. I plugged in at the Safeway across the street and walked over. The food is comforting, fresh, and relatively inexpensive. The folks at the counter were kind and all business— efficient with a smile.

I’ve been back two more times and I have loved sitting in the back corner booth watching regulars dine in or take out.“

“Super clean restaurant and quick service! Most important of all, the food is phenomenal! Single best katsu curry in Lynnwood.“

“I’m a foodie and am a fan of gourmet restaurants. Sakuma is one of the BEST Japanese restaurants I’ve been to-ever! I’ve lived in Japan before. Sakuma’s so good that it’s like being back in Japan. 👍🏼 Itadakimasu, Totemo Oishi!!!“

“The food is tasty, especially for the large portions you get. I really like all the kimbap they have (especially the triangle tuna kimbap). It was properly seasoned with a good kick to it! This place deserves to be a lot more busier than it typically is.“

“we order from them on Uber Eats delivery a lot and it’s always great quality! They forgot a bag of ours and one of the workers personally drove it out to us with complimentary soda. Amazing service. This will be our #1 teriyaki spot from now on.“

“I've eaten here numerous times, ordering various dishes from this restaurant and they cease to amaze me with their friendly staff, fast service, big portions (especially for the price), and amazing quality. I'm always greeted with a friendly smile from the employees and the food always comes out fast and fresh! It has great options for vegetarians as well. They have many substitutions and upgrades to the food for amazing prices. This place is great for solo lunches, quick family dinner, and just grabbing bite with a friend!“

“I really enjoyed the chicken fried rice here! It has a smoky flavor that makes it stand out, and the portions are generous. I also appreciated that they offer free refills and provide a self-service setup for sauces, including salad dressing and spicy options. It’s a convenient spot for a quick, satisfying meal. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Been coming here for years. Nice staff and good food.“

“Friends recommend this place to me. I wasn’t disappointed.
It started with friendly service. Wait time after ordering was not super fast, but reasonable. They offer self serve hot soup, also free soda or bottled water with each meal order.
My plate came with good presentation and nice portion size. I like their teriyaki which was slightly sweet (most other places are far too sweet).
I would recommend if they can tune down the use of starch in the soup, and a bit less salty. I also prefer if they provide full size forks/spoons instead of mini sizes.“

“I’ve been coming to Nasai Teriyaki for just over 10 years for my Teriyaki fix, and they’re consistently the best around. It’s actually hard for me to eat teriyaki elsewhere because Nasai is just that good. Things are made to order (and they ask me for level of spice!), and the resulting flavor is perfectly charred and absolutely delicious.

I always get the spicy chicken & gyoza combo, but also love their chicken yakisoba. My household will always go out of our way to eat here when we have a teriyaki craving!

Easy strip mall location with a parking lot, and the folks running this small business are so kind and hardworking. I hope to continue to visit for many more years!“

“I ordered a few bento boxes to go for a quick meal before the sportsman show.

I ordered three chicken teriyaki bento boxes, the bento boxes came with teriyaki chicken, rice, a California roll, potsticker , egg roll, shrimp tempura and a salad. Plenty of food for the price and for one person. The bento box could have fed two people.

I love the salad, I love the dressing . It’s a sweet sauce. The chicken teriyaki was a little too sweet but still delicious. I loved the shrimp tempura and the sauce that came with it. It was nice to have a basic California roll since we typically don’t ever order that from a sushi restaurant. The egg roll was okay, it was a veggie egg roll, but still good .

We really enjoyed the whole bento.“

“So glad this place got new ownership. If you have not tried this place do it. I got the Beef Yakisoba and minus the green peppers and zucchini Soooo Good. Portion was big and worth the price. Meat delicious, flavor delicious and will definitely be coming back.“

“Simply wonderful. The entire dining experience, from the lovely gentlemen crafting beautiful, tasty food, to the wait staff, to the food. Price. EVERYTHING. We loved it so much that we made a point to come back the same week on our trip. Will always be a must-stop in Seattle from now on!!! Thank you, Kisaku!!!“

“1st time I experienced this place. OMG .we already fallen love with thir food and service 😍 meal we pay is worthier than expected. Kind and friendly service also attracts the people. What ever pictures you see in this website is really true. Once you step in you'll understand and experienced what I'm saying. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I hope they'll never stop this service forever. Thank you 🙏“

“Can’t even remember how many times I’ve been here! I’ve tried the chicken teriyaki, shrimp yakisoba, beef short rib… my absolute favorite is the chicken katsu!! I think I’ve had it over 10 times already, it’s sooo GOOD!!
The service is always great too, super nice and friendly:) Definitely recommend! Great prices and big portions!“

“Manna Deli Teriyaki is one of those classic Seattle teriyaki spots that keeps things simple and satisfying. The chicken teriyaki is tender and glazed just right — sweet, savory, and slightly smoky from the grill. The portions are generous, especially with the rice and salad on the side.

It’s casual, no-frills, and perfect for a quick, filling meal. Not fancy, but dependable comfort food that hits the spot every time.“

“First time trying this place & I'll definitely come back.
Ordered the small chicken lunch special & taro bubble tea for pick up.
The portion of food was enormous for only $9.99 & service was great. Will definitely be going back to try other items.“

“The food is amazing here and so is the service.“

“I’ve been coming here since I was in middle school. It was always our favorite teriyaki spot in Seattle because the family that first opened it was so friendly, and the food was always delicious.

I’ve seen it change ownership probably 3 times. The quality has gone up and down. Overall, it’s probably not as good as it used to be, but it’s still one of the better Seattle teriyaki shops.

Giving it a high rating in hopes that it remains in operation, and to hopefully motivate the owners to keep up the good work!“

“Been coming here for years. Nice staff and good food.“

“I ended up here on a recommendation from the barbers next door, and I’m genuinely thankful they pointed me this way.
The man behind the grill has been making teriyaki for over 30 years, and it shows in every bite. No shortcuts, no gimmicks, just perfectly cooked, flavorful teriyaki done the way it’s supposed to be. I got the teriyaki chicken and it was hands down some of the best I’ve ever had. Juicy, smoky, rich sauce, and portions that actually fill you up.
While I was there, a woman came in who said she had moved out of town. She went out of her way to stop here because it’s her favorite spot. That alone tells you everything you need to know. People don’t do that unless a place really means something to them.
This isn’t some trendy place trying to reinvent teriyaki. It’s the kind of neighborhood spot that’s been doing it right for decades and doesn’t need to advertise. You walk in hungry and leave happy. Simple as that.
This is one of those places you’re lucky to have nearby, and now that I’ve found it, I’ll be back regularly. If you’re even thinking about it, stop in and order. You won’t regret it.“

“So delicious! I love that the teriyaki sauce is secret homemade sauce AND available for purchase!!!!!! The portions are generous and the place is clean and always smells amazing!!!!! The waiter always changes the tv so my boys can watch kid appropriate shows!“

“A diamond in the rough! Great food and the owner is friendly and personable. I will return. I had the chicken teriyaki and there was plenty of food as I was very hungry after a long morning of doing chores and yard work.“

“This was a good place to eat. Though not the best it was better than others and I would definitely stop again if in the neighborhood. Good portions and nice teriyaki flavor. Would like to explore menu deeper. There does appear to be some goblin activity near by but they don't seen to come out in the daytime.“

“Surprisingly good teriyaki! Clean, well-ordered, and they have a cool little watch & jewelry shop within.A small suggestion: putting the salad in a spinner would take excess water away and the dressing (very good btw) would taste better!“

“If you're looking for fantastic food that won't break the bank, Joy Teriyaki is it. I just had their General Tao's Chicken, and it's absolutely to die for – perfectly crispy, flavorful, and just incredible. The portions are huge, the prices are amazing, and honestly, it's just a win all around. Five stars, easy!“

“Great local restaurant“

“I treated my parents to Copine for their holiday gift, since they do not usually treat themselves to fine dining.
The staff made an incredible experience and the food was amazing,... parents were raving about the atmosphere, service and taste.

Jill was especially helpful with planning and scheduling their meal. She followed up with me and made suggestions on additional things she and her team could do to make sure my parents had the best experience possible. This included helping me with remote payment, tailoring their suggestions and service to budget and taste preferences... she even printed menus with no prices so that my parents could enjoy with out thinking about cost. All of these were her idea, and I credit their great experience to her service.

1,000 stars out of 5“

“This is easily the best teriyaki in Edmonds. The proprietor cooks the food to order this isn't your typical precooked reheated fare it's delicious and fresh. If you live in the area your take out will be piping hot when you get home. There is a reason why this shop has been here for decades.“

“Tried their salmon and tuna poke at the phinnywood tasting today. Oh, Arigato Sushi should have totally won. It has to be rigged 😹 these guys served up super fresh and tender poke. I wish I took a pic. Service was great, the owners/people working there(?) were really nice!“

“Love the food, especially the combos! I love teriyaki as a whole, but this place really does it right.“

“This place is my new go to teriyaki restaurant. Every dish I've tried has tasted like a high quality home cooked meal. I've tried the salmon teriyaki which is always perfectly cooked, tender, and properly deboned. The chicken teriyaki is the best I've ever had. It's so flavorful, tender, and the sauce is delicious. I tried the chicken yakisoba today. I've always had trouble finding yakisoba that's not a greasy and oily mess. This yakisoba is the opposite. The veggies and chicken are perfectly cooked and sauteed. The included rice was nice as well. The miso soup offered alongside meals is delicious and helps me feel warm and relaxed. The family that owns the restaurant are very kind and sweet. I can't wait to try the bento next time!“

“Seriously some of the best chicken teriyaki I’ve ever had! It was very cozy and comfortable inside and the food service was insanely fast! There was also complimentary miso soup which was a nice appetizer. Would definitely recommend the happy tummy!“

“Standard bento style fare served with a smile in a small strip mall area. You can get free.miso soup at the counter, which is a nice touch when eating in. The food is good, plenty of seating, but parking can sometimes be a bit scarce during peak times.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly.“

“I love this place! It's on my way home and if I call when I'm 10-15 minutes out the food is always ready when I get there. Great teriyaki with generous portions and the lady who answers the phone/works at the counter is always in a good mood and friendly.“

“Today was my first time trying this restaurant. I went there because they have many vegan options. The food was delicious! The service was excellent. I’m definitely going back.“
