11 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 🤤“

“GOOD RAMEN & NICE ATMOSPHERE“

“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.“

“Ordered the Ribs which I will say was a great choice. If your expecting the way we cook ribs when grilling American style your in for a pleasant surprise as they were different in a great way. Flavor seasoning and sauce on point. The Chicken Katsu was like the best we ever had. was not dry. Very tender and moist like you would hope for. We will be going back again.

Parking: Had to make a couple trips around the block but no to bad“

“I have been here several times throughout the years. This has always been my favorite teriyaki place.
BUT, to top it off, as a pregnant woman walking the mall, I got over heated and nauseous so I went to the coffee shop for a water and they said they only sell one size of tap water for $2. I didn't have my wallet on me and I was disturbed by the greed so I came to the teriyaki place and as always, they were incredibly kind and gave me a small cup of water and I can't express how much it helped me.
They've always been amazing, but I'm truly thankful for this experience. I will always support this place.
Great food and kind staff! I wish more places were like this.“

“Great fish and affordable for the portions. Many options for fun and delicious special rolls but the best thing we had was hands down the salmon maki with massive pieces of really fresh and firm fish with just enough rice. Even small details show It's clear the chefs care about the food: better spicy mayo than I've ever had on sushi, flavorful edamame, tender but firm fish that tastes so fresh, rice with glossy and distinct grains, delightful hot tea.“

“Delicious food. Everything is so fresh and tasty. Great service. Ample parking. Reasonable prices. I strongly recommend this place.

Parking: Big lot. Easy access from plum street

Kid-friendliness: They have a yummy kids meal with teriyaki and tempura. My kid loved it!“

“Delicious food and very kind staff and beautiful restaurant! The food is delicious as well as visually appealing. Dinging 1 point because an item was missing from my pick up order and they said they’re unable to refund the item, and that they’d have to refund the entire order. They did offer a free replacement the next time I order, but I’m visiting from out of town so I would suggest they acquire a POS system that is able to accommodate such needs.“

“Best teriyaki I've ever had. And the price is reasonable as it gets these days. And these days everything is expensive.

The chicken was so tender and flavorful. The beef was okay, nothing special but it was fine! The fried rice I ordered as a substitute for white rice was sooooo good!

Everything was so carefully put together. Even the salad. Prime lettuce. The dressing was a bit spicy for my taste but still good quality.

Highly recommend.“
