15 Best Japanese Restaurants in San Leandro

“Happy hour 5-7 mon-thu, 4-7 fri-sun. Delicious food, super easy to over order here, but really good value for money. A few favorites, chef bento, raiders roll, Japanese tacos, Hamachi kama, otoro. The staff are all super friendly and really helpful in suggesting options. No bad selections so far. Excited to go back again!Parking: Dedicated Parking lot behind the restaurant and some on street parking in front.“

“The poke bowl here was great, along with the combos that my friends got! We felt like it was worth what we paid for, which isn't always the case when it comes to Japanese cuisine. Although it's not very large, the store is charming and homey with cute decorations all around. Since it's not too big of an establishment, the staff are attentive and take care of how you're doing, so it was an overall great experience coming here.“

“This place was great and had good food but not enough for five stars tbh. Some of the food items are great and some are okay and need a bit more seasoning. Sometimes it's hard to get the attention of the staff. Some of the items are a bit pricy.“

“I just had a wonderful experience at Kaisen Don. The service was amazing, and they were so quick with bringing out our food. The staff made us feel right at home from the moment we stepped in. Even though it was bustling, our dishes arrived in a flash, which was awesome. And let me tell you, the sushi was absolutely delicious! So fresh and full of flavor. If you're looking for a place with great service, speedy delivery, and mouthwatering sushi, this is it!“

“Excuse my French but....THIS PLACE SO MF GOOD !! I rarely leave reviews but I had to for this one. They knew what they were doing naming this place "yummy yummy" y'all know how Keith Lee syncs into his seat when the food hits ?!? Baby that was me on the ride back to work lol. Thought I'd just get a little taste and baby I tore that trio plate up ! It was my first time so I went during their lunch time and they have an amazing lunch special. Everything is seasoned to perfection! The rice is cooked perfectly the steak butter and literally melts the chicken is tender and I've been to every hibachi in the bay and sometimes the chicken can be a bit dry but not at yummy yummy ! The veggies were even seasoned perfectly! I also got a lobster in the side and there was some garlic butter that didn't quite melt and I scooped it up with that piece of lobster meat.....orgasmic!! So happy I gave this place a try I will definitely be coming back again !!“

“First time and it was very good light on the stomach n refreshing. I will be back and recommend it . Yum I'll be back“

“Well balance diet. Lots of vegetables. 1scope of rice and No MSG in the food & soup. Meat is plenty. What else can you expect from a takeout. NO MSG is the BEST you can get these years. Lots of Asian run restaurants are using MSG, intensively.Way to go !!!!!!!!“

“I tried the spicy chicken donburi. It was exceptional. I really liked the taste and the spice was perfect, anything less or more would have ruined it, they nailed it. Comes with miso soup which is good as well. Chicken was fresh and juicy. They did not include the soy sauce in my takeout, which was a disappointment, but don't forget to grab some on your way out.“

“Karaage is the perfect crunch! Not too greasy, not too soggy, perfect consistency. just perfect. We were going to each have a dragon roll but John said to do a Badass roll instead and I'm sooo glad we did. Next time we want to eat the E 14th roll to honor this small biz being around for 25 years Oh yeah and service was impeccable“

“This place seems more of a take out place, than a dine in place to eat and lounge. Inside is small, and not large but there is still seating. The prices here for sushi are fairly inexpensive compared to other sushi restaurants in the bay area. Service is quick, ambience isn't quite there but that's okay. The sushi tasted delicious and I was happy with the prices!“

“Love their sushi boxes! My go to when I'm craving sushi but do not want to go to a dine in restaurant. The box itself is cute with the utensils and prepackaged wasabi and soy sauce. Sushi is always good. My favorite is the Go Go Box! My favorite rolls may be the shrimp tempura roll and the dragon roll! I always order online and pick up and it has always been quick and easy!“

“My friend and I went for a lite dinner on Sunday, Mothers Day. Had the best experience. The Sexy roll was absolutely delicious. Something I had not seen on the menu before was appetizer called Bomb. And it was THE BOMB!!! It's Tuesday and I'm craving that meal all over again. Next time you go please give that a try it was really really delicious. Dang wish I would have taken a picture.“
