Japanese Restaurants near Arden Hills

“Cheaper than a Big Mac meal and more full filling. If you're looking for a cheap eat that will fill u up, their lunch buffet is excellent. Food quality is more like 3.5 stars which for the price, no complaints during this day and age where eating out becomes expensive.“

“I was in Minneapolis for a show and wanted sushi. So glad I found this place!! The restaurant is beautiful inside and has a very nice outdoor patio with lots of umbrellas for shade. The food was fantastic!! I had sushi and got a tuna poke bowl to go. I’ll definitely be back for the Tibetan Momo!! If you haven’t been to Momo Sushi you need to check it out!!“

“This place never fails to make me feel on top of the world. I love sitting at the bar--the bartender is soooo nice and will make you a delicious custom cocktail for your specific tastes if you ask her! She's very busy though, I don't know how she does it all.Anyway, the place is beautiful. The chicken teriyaki is so simple yet so delicious. All the shrimp sushi rolls are incredible. I wish there were more non-spicy options as someone who hates when spice covers up flavor in sushi (I like heat! I don't like not being able to taste every aspect of the roll).“

“Great sushi spot with an upscale casual vibrant essence.The interior dinning area played on the purple pink hues and tones from their menu design.They have a sushi bar that you can sit at watching the chef making the sushi.They have an awesome selection of specialty cocktails, we got the lychee one which was very yummy in a dangerous pleasant way.Came in for a quick light lunch.Lots of seating options from 2 table tops and booths.Great service and atmosphere.Can’t wait to go back to try more things off the menu.Parking: Big lot surround by other cool spots to go to afterKid-friendliness: There were families there during lunch time“

“Tasty unique cocktails. I think they should bring some food back though, I can drink more when I am eating!All the musical acts were good, especially Fenix Dion. The sound was fine for my ears, but I think the shape of the room made it hard for my phone to get good video.“

“The donburi was fantastic, great serving size and flavor was on point. Ramen was about average, wasn't super impressed, but not disappointed. The two appetizers we had were good as well, maybe a little overpriced for the serving size, but as advertised.“

“Very good! Stopped by with a few others and we all enjoyed our food. I got full quite fast and was very pleased when our waiter brought out plastic cups to take our ramen home. My friend and I got the Kimchi ramen as well as the honey dew milk and both were great. Parking was also easy. Will come back againParking: There is one handicap parking spot at the side of the building, it is not van accessible.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. I made a reservation, and my party of 2 was seated immediately and had a great waitstaff. We had sake, o-toro Bluefin sashimi, the Silly Billy roll (pictured and favorite), and a supreme combo. Everything was delicious and inspired me to return again to try more of their amazing creations!“

“A delightful spot for sushi in North Oaks. I got some rolls to go and was quite pleased. Everything tasted fresh and was presented beautifully. My favorites were the Suishin and spicy tuna. There are plenty of spots for seating and the service is prompt. Be prepared to wait a bit for the rolls, but they are worth the wait .“

“My friends and I stumbled into this restaurant when Up Down was too packed to enjoy. It happened to be my birthday weekend so I was open to trying something new. I absolutely loved our waiter. He wasn't pushy, had a sake bomb with us, was super nice and funny, and introduced me to the Peach Cosmopolitan. YUMMY! The food was delicious and the dessert was exceptional! Will definitely be back for more!The only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because when we first walked in, I told them how many people (3), and no one said anything to me. No, "it'll be a few minutes but please have a seat" or even mentioning the fact that there were people waiting ahead of us. We stood awkwardly in front of them but eventually moved to the side when we realized we wouldn't be seated right away. We almost walked out after waiting 10 minutes but were called to be seated as we were about to Google another spot.“

“Shige-san was fantastic! It was such an amazing experience. Each dish was nicely explained, what it was, consisted of and where it came from. Little facts that we didn't even know. It was such a joy to converse and learn about Shige-san and his passion. The atmosphere was phenomenal and felt so traditional. The Blue-fin Tuna was exceptional along with the Wagyu. Sitting at the Chefs table is a must-do experience that everyone has to try. Getting to know these chefs and their passion is something you'll never forget! Thank you for making my husband's birthday one he will remember! We will be back!“

“I want to preface this by saying it was delicious, the service was incredible, and the atmosphere on a Friday night is lively and fun.I just can't give it 5 stars in confidence because the lychee cocktail made me incredibly, acutely ill. I was keeling over in stomach pain and retching bile within an hour of drinking it.This sucks because it was absolutely delectable and I would drink it again, lol.“

“I love the onigiri here. There are a lot of options so choosing can be overwhelming, but the staff is very willing to offer suggestions and talk through flavors. I also love the fried tofu. My boyfriend's preferred dish is the tori don. The agedashi tofu is also good (deep fried silken tofu in dashi).I've eaten in once and gotten takeout several times. One time we were given an incorrect dish in our takeout order and had to return to get the right food. They were quick to fix the issue and polite and easy to deal with.The onigiri combo meal is a great deal!Parking: Lots of free street parking in the area.“

“I needed a treat, and did I ever get one in my bag of takeout tonight from Midori’s Floating World Cafe (in their temporary Seward Cafe location). The dumplings, entrees, and dessert were exquisitely prepared, with flavorful sauces and broths. Glad I splurged on the Daifuku: it was a little work of edible art. This food woke all of my senses for spring. I’ll be back.“

“Stopped here for a quick lunch and the ramen was surprisingly good. I ordered the pork belly and the entire bowl was overall impressive. I think the predominant flavor was dashi/seaweed, however the pork belly was very flavorful. The noodles came out of a package and the soft boiled egg could have used some seasoning (soy bath), but overall I honestly can't complain. The price was about as low as it gets and the service was fairly quick. The entire bowl along with a separate container of broth was nicely packaged up for transport. Overall I'm giving this place a high score simply because they are one of the only ramen lunch options accessible by skyway and the price was super low. $12 for a bowl of near legit ramen is impressive. Go for it!“

“I was fortunate enough to experience the Tuesday night 10 course kaiseki seasonal tasting menu. Each course was beautifully presented and expressed authentic Japanese flavors and textures that reflected the spring season. The staff were attentive and accommodating. For example, noticing that my wife was left handed the staff set up her table setting to reflect that. That has happened to her only one other time. A small thing for sure, but reflective of the care and attention to detail that was put into everything. Kaiseki Furukawa provides an elegant dining experience from the dinnerware to interior design. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.“

“Highly recommend, the fish was so fresh it almost tasted sweet! I got the eel nigiri and spicy shrimp roll, my boyfriend got the sunshine combo and another eel nigiri. We both left stuffed! The woman behind the counter was working incredibly hard. My sushi cravings —> satisfied. I will be back!Kid-friendliness: There was live music and children dancing.“

“I'm visiting a friend here in St. Paul and we decided to get sushi before the Pitbull trilogy concert and we walked over to Sakura. First off the vibe and decor was great, immediately sat and the staff was very attentive. I order gyozas and a shogun bento box. They were fantastic! I was so happy with the quality of the sashimi and the teriyaki beef was sweet and tender. Best bang for the buck! Anytime I come back here I'd wanna eat here again!“

“When I was craving sushi the other night and didn't feel like going out in the cold, this new takeout & delivery only restaurant popped up so I decided to try it. And I'm so glad that I did! The sushi arrived quickly and was super fresh. I got 2 spicy hamachi rolls, 2 spicy tuna rolls, and a miso soup. The soup was good but nothing to rave over, and rolls exceeded my expectations. They were fresh, tasty, and a good size. I even packed some for lunch the next day (still tasted great as leftovers) and the rice stayed soft too! Would definitely recommend for an at-home sushi night.“

“Went for our anniversary. Absolutely loved it. Servers were all personable and knew the menu. The sushi was great, my bourbon 7's were perfect. My wife had their Yuzu whiskey sour which she says was the best drink she's ever had (and we've been married 28 years). I knew going in I was going to need to stock up the checkbook. Zero buyers remorse. Will definitely return.“
