13 Best Japanese Restaurants in Kirkland

“Second time ordering here, and safe to say this is my new favorite spot for sushi. You can taste the freshness, care, and incredible flavor. They’re consistent and just great overall. Will be ordering here on the regular! Udon noodles and spicy tuna HIGHLY recommend.“

“want to recommend Kami Teriyaki in totem lake Kirkland because, for me, it is one of the best teriyaki places I have ever had in Washington, and honestly in my life.

I am a regular customer, and when I am not eating at the restaurant, I also order delivery. It is my favorite place for teriyaki.

I highly recommend it because it offers fresh and delicious food, very generous portions, fair prices, and very good service. The owners are very kind, and I only have positive things to say about this place.

It is my favorite teriyaki restaurant. Thank you, Kami Teriyaki.“

“Great foods and awesome service!“

“I eat my teriyaki at the one Toshi operates himself in Mill Creek. I believe his son operates this one. This is the definitive teriyaki place in the US. Amazing.“

“2 orders of shrimp Yakisoba to go... 3 positives: Lots of noodles and veggies. A very big portion. Also, three sauces, also nice taste. 1 negative: the shrimp were extremely over cooked. Almost inedible. Which is unfortunate because there were a good plenty.“

“This is the best teriyaki restaurant, period. The food is incredible and prices are amazing. The owners are very friendly and responsive to any feedback m. I've been a customer for 20 years, it is our family favorite. I am thrilled to see more and more reviews coming in recognizing this place because it’s my absolute favorite. The even have kolbi beef! The tempura and pork are amazing.“

“Bro, i eat teriyaki all over western WA and this is one of my favorite spicy chicken teriyaki’s Ive ever had. It slaps, smoky char, juicy, great sauce. So lucky we have great teriyaki in western wa!! Price is on the higher side, but I don’t even care, its so tasty“

“Not only is the crispy rice and tuna, pork belly bun, and ramen delicious but they are also life savers. My best friend started choking and one of the employees came and gave her the Heimlich maneuver. Thank you for helping her! I tried to tip the employee and he refused. Really thank you. I know everyone’s adrenaline through the roof!“

“A nice little spot for some delicious sushi in downtown Kirkland. Walked in on Friday evening and were seated really quickly. The staff was welcoming and friendly in a down to Earth way. Our table was clean and comfortable. Great variety on the menu; I was able to order non-sushi items for myself and daughter while my friends found some great looking sushi plates. My chicken Katsu was crispy and cooked perfectly, and included a fresh salad and a cup of miso soup, which was very tasty. We tried the potato-ball/squid dish (I can't recall the name) and it was VERY good!!! Great on a cold evening to warm you up. Prices seemed fair and our waitress was very helpful and friendly. Definitely worth a stop! :-)“

“Reasonably Priced; Outstanding Sushi!😋 Oh, and the FRIENDLY PROFESSIONAL SERVICE was very appreciated.“

“Everything there is delicious and always artfully presented, and the service by the staff is also very good.“

“Fav local sushi place in Juanita“

“My wife and I went for dinner this Tuesday night and it was a great experience. The ambiance was lovely, the service was attentive, and the food was amazing.

We tried their omakase which was unique and fun. The scallop was our favorite, but many of the bites were quite memorable

I honestly have no clue why this place isnt rated higher on Google. I didn't find their prices to be too crazy either, especially considering what sushi can often run you in kirkland/bellevue area. Definitely check this place out; you wont be disappointed!“
