10 Best Japanese Restaurants in Olympia

“Just visited tonight and as always, loved the food and service! Super sweet waitresses and delicious food. I ordered the beef teriyaki bento box and a plate of crab rangoons. My friend ordered the beef bulgolgi. We were both surprised at the fast service and generous portions. It's not often that my friend and I get to go out to eat, but I'm so glad that we chose koibito 🤤“

“The Zen has the best food and great workers! We will be back soon❤️“

“The Sushi House has wonderful bathrooms. I am also partial to the simplicity of it all. It's brightly decorated, fully serviced, and delicious.

Hands down, better than Aya Sushi, and leagues above that trap house in downtown Olympia - Asahi

Family-friendly and fast, Sushi House is the ideal choice.

The Pepper Tuna roll is to die for. I can confidently say that I have never had anything that didn't deserve a 5-Star rating at this establishment. I get Fried Gyoza, Miso Soup, Edamame, and 3 rolls. Be sure to ask your waitress if she has a new favorite and try that!

P.S - Aya is great for first dates or to treat your new mistress. Sushi House is for your wife and family.“

“This restaurant/food stand in the mall is a great place to eat with your friends and family. But for me it a place where you get a lot of your protein because the dishes are basically 1 or 2 maybe 3 meat you choose and steamed rice or fried rice and veggies. It just a great place to eat after a workout.
Sauce is delicious by the way“

“The fish is amazing and well prepared. I tried 14 different nagiri and all were excellent. The staff is very friendly and attentive. I have never given 5 stars before...until now.“

“This is my favorite place to eat. Great food, great service. Price is right. Lots of yummy food cooked to your liking. Definitely recommend going.“

“Really enjoyed the food here. Got the miso soup and vegetable tempura, which were good but pretty standard. Split three rolls with my partner, they were all delicious. Restaurant was quiet, we were the only ones there most of the time, but we were dining late. The quiet was nice, not sure what it would be like on a busy night.“

“It was wonderful. Met my family there for lunch today 10/11/25 and celebrated my daughters birthday. They played a happy birthday song for her and gave us birthday cake. They're such kind sweet people. Thank you for your kindness. Tammie.“

“The chicken vermicelli bowl had fantastically fresh ingredients and the most perfectly cooked chicken I've had in my life.

I'm a home cook and foodie; and even at high-end restaurants, I've come to expect the chicken to be either over or under done—and that's because it's hard to get it JUST RIGHT. But the chicken in this bowl was perfect: no tough, dry exterior; no soft, underdone mushy center. It was consistently textured, moist, and flavorful the whole way through. I don't normally like Vietnamese food, and this dish blew me away. I'll definitely be going back to try more of the menu.“
