18 Best Japanese Restaurants in Federal Way

“We have been there a couple of times. Everything has been excellent. Prices are comparable to other sushi restaurants in the area. Our only complaint is the tea is a bit week. Still deserves 5 stars.“

“This is my favorite restaurant for sushi!
It’s clean, fresh, beautiful presentation. At this point, I’ve probably brought 15 different friends or family members and they all love it too!
The chirashi bowl is my favorite. I appreciate the warm towels, soup and fried shrimp they bring before the main dish.
If you’re getting rolls, the Aji roll is the best. It’s got a good mix of fish, buttery salmon, tuna, crab etc and fresh elements like avocado.
The Japanese ceviche and fried avocado are also amazing!“

“my son told me to try the tonkatsu ... and he was absolutely tastier and juicier right👍👍“

“Delicious Ramen and dim sum“

“I have been a customer for over 35 years. Never ever have I experienced a better Sushi restaurant. I adore the owners. Fresh amazing food.“

“Shari is the best !!!! I love her service she made me feel welcomed and had a big smile . I was comfortable and. Tipped her very well. If anyone need a raise is for her compassion at work !!! Let’s Go SHARI !!!!“

“First time eating at Nami Sushi, and it did not disappoint! We ordered the small boat, which has 20 different items in the boat and 3 different kinds of rolls. We also ordered the tempura calamari and Agedashi with a side of Japanese beer (large bottle of Asahi). The wait staff are attentive and checked on us multiple times. The restaurant is clean and tables are nicely spaced apart, tables are cleaned immediately. The decor of this restaurant is pretty cool and unusual. We will definitely be back. Thanks Nami Sushi!“

“Last time I went here was a few months ago now but they were super friendly until the 1 time I had the day off work and wanted to grab a quick bite. When I walked in it looked like everyone was at lunch as well which is fine. I politely waited and just watched what ever they had playing on the TV for a minute but when they finally got around to asking me what I wanted it just seemed rude. Like snapping at someone. Their food portions and price have always been why I go here. But that interaction just detoured me from coming back. Can't say I would recommend after that. Seems like a family owned resteraunt tho and they def seemed like a go to before that interaction. I always liked their teriyaki chicken. Always had enuf sauce and didn't feel like alot of the other places that try to skimp on filling a togo box with chicken or rice or anything. Won't rate them harshly off that 1 experience tho and may give them a shot again.“

“Amazing family owned restaurant. The service here is phenomenal and so personable. The food I'd delicious and always prepared so well. This has become a favorite of mine recently. Highly recommend.“

“Really great burger! Not like regular burgers. Fresh ingredients and bread. Unique sauce. Killer fries. highly recommended!“

“Ichi Teriyaki is conveniently located near Trader Joe’s in Federal Way, with a cozy seating area for about 32 guests. When you arrive, you order and pay at the front counter first—there wasn’t a greeting, and I did have to repeat my chicken teriyaki order a few times to the male server.

The dish was $14.12, tax and tip included. While waiting, I noticed another customer get a bowl of soup from the counter, which I assumed was complimentary—I wish the server had mentioned that when I ordered. I did know that water from the soda machine was free, but I wasn’t sure about the hot tea—so I probably should’ve asked.

When my chicken teriyaki arrived, it was massive—served on a generous platter. I ate about three-quarters before feeling completely full.

There was no greeting, no check-in on how the food was, and nothing about the free offerings. It wasn’t a big deal, but I mention it since other teriyaki spots I’ve been to have a bit more interaction.

Still, the portion and overall value earn Ichi Teriyaki a solid four stars from me.“

“My wife pretty much dislikes teriyaki chicken. However, in a moment of weakness, she said yes to it this time. Since we moved recently, I looked around for a well rated Teriyaki restaurant near us, and Teriyaki house came up. Well, she loved it (and so did I!) but did not care for the sauce. So next time I went in, I asked for the chicken without the sauce, just on the side. Since then, this has been the only place we go for take out. The quality of the food is the best out of all the other Teriyaki places we tried and the couple who own the place are wonderful. I would love to spend a few days in the kitchen watching how this wonderful chef makes these dishes. I've tried several of the other offerings and they are just as excellent as the teriyaki. I look forward to trying more of their fabulous offerings. Highly recommended.“

“chat ts is awesome my dude. The girl at the front very friendly and the food is obviously good. Very friendly towards customers. I always get my UTENSILS because I ASK for them. ☺️
I don’t mind paying 50 cents for the sauces, it’s not a lot of money unless you’re broke. I enjoy the atmosphere whenever i’m in there, very calm and enjoyable. Definitely recommend this place ☺️“

“Last year they were decent. But now they are absolutely amazing I have gone two times in the last month or two and the food was a 10 out of 10 every time. Very reasonably priced. And they pack your take out tray I almost wasn't able to finish both times.“

“We've been going there for at least 25 years --from when we moved to Fed Way --and the food is consistently delicious. The lady is not comfortable in English, so can come off as rude!“

“This place is great! I got a giant portion and the food is delicious. The generals chicken is bomb! Super crispy and flavorful. Teriyaki chicken was also super good with moist chicken and plenty of sauce. The lady at the counter was super nice also. I will definitely be back.“

“Some of the better teriyaki, and has been for years But it seems they are down sizing their portions to keep prices lower. which means more needs to be ordered to have the same amount which just ends up actually costing more in the long run.“

“New Head Chef Logi!! Conveyer belt is open again and food was amazing!! Will definitely be back again with family and friends!“
