10 Best Japanese Restaurants near Monroe

“So amazing!

Now have free egg flower soup and tea as starters which is amazing but the best part was the service. I brought my baby in there and she brought her rice, a little soup with an ice cube, brought her a spoon. She was so attentive without ever being asked for anything.

Food was great too!

Highly recommend!!“

“Quality food and excellent service! They’ve consistently made great food since I was a kid! This place makes WAY better food than the other Kami restaurant in the middle of town. Some personal favorites I recommend are their egg rolls, pork fried rice, wonton soup, beef yakisoba and sweet/sour chicken.“

“My husband loves this place. We’ve been coming here for a few years and doing take out. The portions are great, and the food is tasty. Bonus points because tonight we ordered a chicken teriyaki for my daughter and they pre cut the chicken into small bites for her. Thoughtful and great customer service.“

“This is a wonderful chef who knows his skills, and indeed the beef if chopped, and fried to perfection. The chicken has a nice tender cook, and the beef and chicken combo I ordered was a great portion size. I also tried Yokisoba noodles, and it was about the best I ever had, other then Mongolian style. This chef takes pride in his business, and let's not forget he survived the pandemic that put most business out, and he survived on take out orders, so that alone speaks volumes of his tasty cooking. FYI for you east bound travelers, this is the last stop to get great Teriyaki or plate of your choice, and don't forget your snacks next store. Highly recommend, please try them out! Support local business!!!“

“Best sushi I've ever had. I'm not exactly a sushi fan, but I love thiers!“

“It was a cold and rainy day. After a couple of hours of looking at antiques we were hungry and damp. Ramen was the answer. We drove about 5 minutes up the hill to Niko.

Clean and tidy, and warm. The nice man took our order and delivered lunch to our table. My wife had the Wok Express, a huge platter of orange chicken, rice and salad. I had the ramen and it was delicious. We had a great lunch, and even took some home. I recommend this place.“

“I come here fairly often, and today, as I ordered, I failed to communicate properly that I wanted tapioca pearls in my bubble tea; this is entirely on me, but the owner here was nice enough to fix it for me.

He pointed out the error, and was STILL kind enough to fix it for me with 0 extra charge. Thanks very much 🙏

This 5* review is the very least I can do.

Thank you!“

“Teriyaki Bliss in the Autumn Sun

While walking home on a lovely fall afternoon, I stumbled upon a charming little teriyaki place that seemed to scream, “Eat outside while you still can!” Naturally, I obliged.

I ordered the chicken teriyaki bowl, and wow! It was like a warm hug from a long-lost friend. The chicken, grilled to perfection, bathed in a sweet-savory sauce, had my taste buds doing the cha-cha. The rice was fluffy, and the veggies were fresh enough to make you think they just jumped off a farmer's market table—if I knew what that looked like, of course.

As I savored my meal, the sun beamed down, and I had to fend off some curious squirrels who clearly believed my bowl was their next treasure. I perfected my “I will not share” face—an impressive masterpiece, if I do say so myself.

Overall, this teriyaki spot is a must-visit for a delightful meal that pairs perfectly with the last sunny days of fall. Just make sure to bring your sense of humor and maybe a jacket for when the sun sets and the squirrels start plotting! ???️“

“Happy at the Bay Teriyaki in Duvall is a hidden gem and worth the travel. Easily one of my top three teriyaki restaurants in the Greater Seattle Area. High-quality ingredients, incredible taste. I get the chicken and beef combo (no salad all rice). The beef is steak, cooked perfectly.“

“Stopped in on a Friday evening, dine in and it was wonderful. Small dining area with the basics but is so clean. The dine-in area just had one other couple but the to-go orders were plentiful. The owners greeted everyone with sincerity and all the to-go peeps seemed to be regulars. We enjoyed a chicken bento box and an order of the orange chicken. Both were played well and tasted amazing. So fresh! Japan Teriyaki was a great surprise find tucked away off of 20th.“
