13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Waldorf

“Very simple Korean - Japanese fusion restaurant. Their Korean dishes are great. I didn’t like their Korean style sushi as much (Kimbap) it tasted a bit off. Their spicy tuna was good and the spic bulgogi was pretty good as well. The portion was not too large and not too small. The sides were great.“

“Review: A Gem in Waldorf!
If you’re looking for a spot that hits the mark on both flavor and atmosphere, **Extreme Teriyaki** in Waldorf is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the kind of warm, attentive customer service that makes you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure everything is perfect, making the entire dining experience seamless and enjoyable.
### The Stars of the Show
The food here is consistently fresh, vibrant, and packed with authentic flavor. Every dish feels like it’s prepared with genuine care, but there are two standouts that keep us coming back:
* **The King Kong Shrimp:** This dish is a total powerhouse. The shrimp are impressively large, perfectly cooked, and tossed in a sauce that strikes the ultimate balance between savory and sweet. It’s hearty, satisfying, and lives up to its bold name.
* **The Shrimp Tempura:** My wife’s personal favorite, and for good reason! The batter is incredibly light and airy, providing that perfect golden crunch without feeling heavy. The shrimp inside are tender and sweet, making every bite a delicious contrast in textures.
### Final Verdict
Everything we’ve tried has been delicious, with portions that leave you full and happy. Whether you’re a local or just passing through the Waldorf area, Extreme Teriyaki delivers high-quality food and top-tier service every single time. We can’t recommend it enough!“

“Food was fresh and hot, made to order after my call. Very helpful polite staff! Everyone loved it at home especially the sweet potato appetizer and avocado salad, bento boxes and steak and cheese roll. Fair price and great serving size. Much appreciated service with a smile.“

“The food is delicious! I try to branch out and order other things but the Kobe Shrimp and Shrimp Ramen are so amazing everytime!
The atmosphere is cozy but if you like quiet time while you dine, you might want to get there early!
My only grievance is the service. They are friendly but I think they should hire more people to help cover the tables. You'll wait for things a little longer than expected. But its worth it the food and drinks so I personally dont mind since im never in a rush to go lol.
4/5 🌟's for sure!“

“Amazing great food. Great, everybody. So nice and friendly“

“Today was our first time here and I loved it! I’m a girl who likes to order a bunch of small items, and this was just perfect. I had the Kani salad, miso soup, and a shrimp tempura roll—all were delicious and they made alterations without any issue. Boyfriend had a tuna roll and the chicken/shrimp hibachi lunch. He enjoyed those also! Will definitely be back!!“
