Japanese Restaurants near Norristown

“One of my favorite restaurants- the food is always fresh, hot, flavorful and fast. The service is warm and friendly - and the main server treats everyone like a regular. No matter how long between visits, she remembers our favorite bottle of wine. Highly recommended for great sushi and Korean food.Dietary restrictions: The server is very careful if you express a food issue, like needing gluten-free meals.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp up to the front door“

“I’d heard about Ronin from a previous manager who would order their sushi and it always looked good. I was in the mood for Ramen and they came up in my search. It was a small shop, nicely decorated. Most people came for take out, there was a couple dining in when I arrived so it was nice and quiet. The food service was quick, everything we ordered was delicious and flavorful. My bf ordered the shrimp and veggie tempura bento box, and a chicken katsu bao special. I ordered the Crazy Boy roll special and Shimp Tom Yum ramen. Highly recommend this place if you’re in the area.“

“first time ordering from there.. the food was excellent. ordering on line was easy the portions are large.. . the staff during pick up was so friendly and kind.. restaurant was very clean and in well order.. will definitely order again...“

“The sushi was really good. We had the red dragon roll and another combination roll with eel that were delicious. The staff was really friendly. The dining room is very casual and more like you'd find at a dinner, but it was quiet, so it was a nice place for conversation.“

“The folks in this area were convinced that our sushi restaurants were great. They were wrong - until SU20 opened. Finally the real deal has arrived. Beautiful and generous plating, peak freshness and a creative menu of specialty rolls. Their desserts a perfection!“

“Found amidst other small businesses and shops in the heart of Bryn Mawr, Yamazaki Ramen might just be the cozy culinary hideaway your taste buds need. It's a modest space, sure, but what it lacks in grandeur, it compensates with a soul-warming embrace, a friendly nod, and bowls of ramen that could easily steal the show in any food lover's heart.Now, let's talk about the star of our gastronomic journey--the Yamazaki Special ramen. This bowl is more than just a meal; it's a warm embrace on a cold day, a melody of flavors that sings a harmonious ode to traditional Tonkotsu ramen. With its rich pork-bone soup, tender roast pork, and an ensemble of bamboo shoots, kikurage mushrooms, red ginger, scallions, and a perfectly poached egg, it's a dish that doesn't just satisfy hunger; it nourishes the soul.Alongside this noodle nirvana, we ventured into the realm of the Gyudon Rice Bowl. Here, we found a comforting assembly of sliced beef, onions, and pickled ginger atop a bed of rice, all gently hugged by a sweet dashi sauce. The seasoned boiled egg added a nice touch, though the dish played more of a supporting role to the show-stopping ramen. It's still a solid choice for those craving a bit of variety, offering a satisfying culinary experience.Yamazaki Ramen stands as a testament to the joys of simple, heartfelt cooking. In this unassuming spot, you'll find dishes crafted with care, flavors that linger long after the last bite, and a reminder of the quiet power of a well-made bowl of ramen.So, if find yourself in Bryn Mawr and in search of a quick & tasty bite, Yamazaki Ramen checks all of the boxes.“

“Loved the sushi!! Was delicious!“

“This place is a gem. Fast and friendly service, the best ginger dressing on a house salad I have ever tasted. The freshest fish you will find on the main line. The rice was served at the perfect temperature. The owners and staff are the nicest people you will ever meet. If I could only eat at one restaurant for the rest of my life, this would be the one.“

“Took the train up to the end of the Chestnut Hill East line to wander down the main street shops on Germantown Ave and this was the first restaurant we ran into.The girlfriend and I ordered a bento lunch each and an eel-avocado roll on the side. Everything about the meal was delicious. Neither of us could finish the entire meal as the value for $15 was strong.I certainly wasn't expecting to get a full meal for two in Chestnut Hill and walk out less than $50 poorer, especially at a nice little place with attentive service and sushi involved. Will visit again for sure.“

“Koi is an amazing place! It is some of the best sushi my husband has ever tried, and it comes complete with a special design by their sushi chef. This family owned restaurant has multiple member of their family, and it truly adds a personal touch. Joey was our server last night, and it was great to learn more about the restaurant - plus he made us laugh and just made our experience even better! Their outdoor dining is an awesome option - and the setting truly can’t be beat! We can’t wait to come back!“

“Our group, which has been sampling custom sushi roll offerings around the Montgomery, Delaware, and Chester County (PA) region for over 15 years, believes we've landed on a new standard-setter with Osushi in Wayne. Beautiful presentation; excellent service; and fabulous, fresh, varied rolls. We'll be back!“

“This place is so so good! The food is phenomenal, the atmosphere is cute, and the staff is super friendly, polite and helpful. It is great to see the chefs at the sushi counter, and they're always so happy! The rolls (especially the white and black tiger) and stone pot are my family's favorite, and be sure to order from the apps! Everything we have tried has been delicious. Everyone is extremely pleasant. If you're on the fence, definitely give it a try! It will easily become a favorite!!!“

“This is my husband and I’s FAVORITE spot now. The food is incredible- truly unique flavors, curated menu, combinations of elements that are a new experience every time. Service is always so friendly- the owner and head chef is the happiest and warmest person. He is a delight to be around! We keep coming back time and time again and it never gets old! You MUST visit!!“

“Excellent quality sushi! My family ordered a couple sushi combos and a special roll and everything was super fresh and absolutely delicious. Best sushi I had on a long time (inmy opinion, in terms of ramen and sushi it beats some otherJapanese restaurants in the area)“

“Great selections, best sushi I've ever had! Highly recommend.“

“The service was top notch and the atmosphere was pleasant. I had the Manhattan Roll, it was a new one for me and it was great. My main entree was the General Tao's Chilean Sea Bass and that did not disappoint. We will definitely be going back and hopefully sooner.rather than later.“

“I went to Umai for dinner. I ordered rolls and they were very tasty. I would however prefer to have more fish in my sushi ? That's why I only gave a three stars. The restaurant appeared to have multiple regulars there because they called the staff by name. Overall the food was good. The staff was very friendly. Good service. I think it's a nice place to sit down and have some dinner with friends.“

“My go-to in the food court! They have the sweetest staff. Although the food may seem pricy, they give a GREAT portion that could last two meals. Fish is fresh, and they load your bowl up pretty well. Love their boba as well - I usually stick to the fruit teas, but you get a lot for the price, and it’s really good :)“

“Fuki quickly became a favorite place for me and my loved ones to go. The staff are all so attentive and friendly, the food comes out so fast, and the atmosphere is extremely calm and relaxing. On top of all that, the sushi is always fresh and tender and I love the ramen on cold days. I have nothing bad to say about Fuki!“

“I think this place is one of the best Japanese restaurants in the area. Sushi and Hot meals are excellent and creative. Food arrived quickly. Service staff was professional and very attentive. I love bringing my kids who also love Japanese food! Atmosphere was casual and comfortable. We will come back often.“

“I came here on a cold rainy day and had the coziest experience. The service was wonderful and they offer complimentary iced barley tea. I ordered the shrimp yakisoba and it was the perfect meal for that weather! I was so hungry I didn’t think to snap photos but maybe next time (because I shall return!).“

“I am so impressed! We ordered takeout and it was absolutely wonderful! The food was well-packaged for the ride home. Everything was delicious; perfectly seasoned and cooked. This is my parents' new favorite restaurant!“

“Very good“

“Great take out. Lots of choices.“

“Ordered lunch takeout. 3 rolls of your choice for $15. Salad can be added for an additional $1. Sushi had more filling than rice (probably a good thing for most people), rice a relatively thin layer around the rim. Any more rice, the sushi would probably not have fit into the plastic box. Plenty of food for the price. I wouldn't call this high grade stuff but workaday. You can tell from the rice itself, which could be seasoned a little more, but tasty enough. I find Wegman's sushi acceptable enough. Will be delicious enough for most except the gourmand. Comes with soy sauce on the side in small plastic containers. Also get the usual (fake) wasabi and preserved ginger slices. Website uses 'Mealkeyway.' Don't know if there is an upcharge compared to just ordering by phone. 15% tip included by default when you check out (you have to click on custom to change this to zero if you don't believe in tipping for orders you are picking up yourself). They also offer Chinese/Thai dishes.“

“We had a fabulous evening at OSUSHI. The food was fantastic as was the service. The shisito peppers are a must as an appetizer. The sushi rolls are served beautifully and taste great. We ordered a special occasion dessert with a candle and it was delivered perfectly. The dessert was the tempura vanilla ice cream and all I can say is WOW. If you like sushi this is your place.“

“Ever since we discovered Bonjung we can’t get enough of their delicious food. My husband and I have gone there three times in the past 10 days. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Can’t recommend it enough. They knew it was my birthday on Saturday and I got a complimentary fried ice cream.“

“Fantastic sushi. Fresh and delicious. Great variety and friendly service.“

“Their spicy tuna sandwich is sooo delicious! Love this place! I was celebrating my birthday on 11/22 with my aunt, who’s never been there before. She liked everything we had. So much so, that she plans on bringing her crew there for their next hang. We ordered from the lunch specials- eel for me with particularly tasty miso soup- I could smell the smoky scent that tells me it will be flavorful & it was. I HAD to have the spicy tuna sandwich too-it’s still as delicious as I remember from quite a few years ago. My aunt had a beef teriyaki bento box from the bottom of the lunch specials list on the menu & she enjoyed that & everything else in the Boxed Lunch. I let her try my eel and the marinated daikon from the platter & she was surprised at how yummy they both were. Portions were generous too. The staff were very nice, and attentive. We couldn’t have had a nicer experience. We’ll be back much sooner next time.“

“Amazing sushi and service! Great for families with kids too!“

“They deliver!! That was great. No messing around with all the fees from one of the services. The packaging was impeccable and the food delicious. An assortment of food like the wasabi shumai which were amazing and tamago which was delicious. The lo mein was great and very customizable. It isnt' that often that you can get chinese and japanese food from the same place and have it all be awesome. I suggest that you order from there. There is something to please everyone.“

“You can tell it is more a grab and go type of place for the college folks but our dine-in experience was great nonetheless! Staff was so kind, attentive, and food came quickly. Sushi was amazing and amazing, I enjoyed my miso soup, and my husband and I shared some edamame.Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for some sushi in the neighborhood! Mango Tango and Holiday rolls were my favorites!“

“Very entertaining, filet was delicious. Friendly staff and beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Perfect pairing of quantity and quality. I was so good! How can you go wrong with an amazing dinner for under $15?! I had the hibachi chicken and steak. Steak was cooked to order (med. well). Chicken and fried rice was really good as well.This place is on my way home from work. I will be back… often.“

“Had an incredible lunch at Asahi in Lansdale. Ordered the Salmon Teriyaki Bento Box, which came with a miso soup and a ginger salad, rice, 3 dumplings, California roll, spicy tuna roll and a seaweed salad. I also ordered my favorite, an eel roll. All that for only $27. Very friendly staff! What a perfect and filling meal. I can not recommend this place enough!!! Try it and enjoy.“

“My daughter said that she was looking to have sushi for lunch today, so we decided to give Herosame in Ardmore a try. Wow, this is one of the best sushi meals we've had in the Philly area and definitely on the Main Line. I called in our takeout order and the server who took our order was very friendly and polite as was the server who brought us our order while we waited in the vestibule. We ordered the Lunch Shrimp Teriyaki Bento Box and the Lunch Triple Roll Combo. Wow! I thought they had accidentally give us another person's order as the bags were quite heavy. Both lunch specials could easily be split over two meals or at least a meal and a leftovers snack. The Lunch Shrimp Teriyaki Bento Box included a small house salad, a pint of Miso Soup, 2 Shumai, a California Roll, 6 large Teriyaki Shrimp and a pint of steamed white rice. The salad was a crisp and refreshing spring mix with thinly shredded carrots and a halved grape tomato with a delicious dressing. The Miso soup was very rich and tasty. The Shumai were delicious with a nice crisp exterior, but soft, tender and enjoyable meat inside. The California Roll was huge and stuffed with super fresh crab stick and vegetables topped off with tobiko. The Teriyaki Shrimp were just a hair overcooked, but still delicious. The Three Roll Lunch Combo featured a choice of three rolls from a list of twenty different rolls so my daughter picked the Shrimp Avocado Roll, Tempura Roll and Philly Roll. All three rolls, just like my Bento Box's California Roll were huge with the Shrimp Tempura Rolls being gigantic. One piece of the tempura roll was at least twice the size of other sushi rolls I've had. Each roll was stuffed with the traditional meats and veggie fillings. Everything was so fresh and delicious! Herosame will definitely be on our family's list for future Japanese lunches and dinners!“

“A new sushi place that has spectacular sushi rolls, highly recommend trying it! All the food is delicious, the food is authentic and the prices are fair. I recommend ordering one specialty roll and one normal roll of sushi, as I think that’s where they truly excel, however the ramen is also top quality, and has many choices to try.“

“Great place to come to eat lots of meat! I would recommend the non-marinated meats first, see how you feel, and then try ordering some of the marinated ones.“

“We love to e entire MK's experience and are so sad to see it leaving Wayne! The white table cloths and professional servers, on top of delicious authentic Chinese food makes going to Margaret Kuo's and exceptional experience...and then to have her husband ever present and see her in the dining room on the last night was super special! Thank you for many years of being a Wayne landmark, serving superior food!“

“yes food is delicious. Portions are huge. Drinks are great.“

“Always enjoy the vibe and service at New Leaf. Enjoyed seating outside. Service was attentive, food was delicious. Always love their sushi. Eye pleasing, fresh and tasty. My favorite is always the salt & pepper squid. As good as what I've enjoyed in China town. I'm fact I think I like it better. Singapore noodles are always a go to. The surprise was the sweet and sour chicken. I've never had big meaty pieces of chicken for this dish. We were stuffed for our party of two when left. The best part, we can have leftovers today!“

“I had the sweetheart roll, salmon avocado, and eel avocado rolls were fresh amazing. The atmosphere is cute for date nights and was informed it's BYOB. There's other non sushi items on the menu too. My friend ordered udons and it smelled delicious from across the table. Definitely adding to my list of Lansdale eatery.“

“We ordered takeout, so we can’t really speak to the atmosphere. I will agree with other reviewers- excellent selection of sushi rolls and sashimi. Really fresh, very tasty. Prices are very reasonable for the quantity and quality. I also ordered a hot dish which was very, very good- also tasted so fresh. I would definitely come back here and highly recommend this place!“

“We ordered takeout through their website. The ordering page is pretty well organized and easy to use. The estimated time is short and the food is ready soon after we got there (we were just a couple of minutes away). Compared to similar Chinese restaurants, their price is pretty low and their portions large. We ordered basil fried rice, pineapple fried rice, and the volcano roll, nothing too fancy but good enough.“

“Recently had dinner here and can’t wait to come back!! They had so many options, which we tried a lot of them, and they were all really good! The staff was extremely nice! Our waiter took time to explain to us the marinates and also how to eat it! Definitely will be coming back!!“

“One of our favorite places in Bryn Mawr. The food was absolutely spectacular and our server was absolutely delightful. they had something new on the menu and the enthusiasm of our server convinced us to try it and she was absolutely spot on! We also got the Bryn Mawr roll, because we were there to drop our youngest off at Bryn Mawr for freshman year. We ended up ordering two rounds of rolls and man do I wish I had room for more because they were ALL fantastic, but I am still drooling over that Bryn Mawr roll. It's not the most "exciting" but it was just PERFECT. I really can't wait to go visit my kid and go to Sushi Land again!!!“

“Fantastic sushi made with great care. Very fresh fish and great rice. Affordable price. I especially enjoyed the house salad, which contained fresh local fruit that complemented the salad perfectly. Great choice for enjoying in the beautiful outside dining space adjacent.“
