27 Best Japanese Restaurants in London

“We had lunch at Mori: bulgogi beef and vege udon. Food was freshly prepared and quite flavourful. Server was engaged and helpful. We will be back to check out Mori’s other dishes next time.“

“Quiet, intimate restaurant with delicious and plentiful food. Service was great! We will most definitely be back!!“

“Sushi Ya is my favorite sushi restaurant by far. The sashimi bento box is fresh and tastes amazing. The service from this family run restaurant makes you feel like you're home. It is warm, welcoming and delicious!“

“Stopped here for lunch with my daughter and partner, the lady at the counter was so sweet. My daughter is autistic and they were very understanding when she spilled her water and we had to leave. They packed everything to go with care. The food and the price we paid was amazing! I will be coming back when I’m in town! Loved it! The bento box was GREAT!“

“I have been dying for a place like this to open in London, Ontario. By far, this is the best sushi restaurant in this city. Finally, I can get the types of sushi that I crave, such as white tuna, hamachi, surf clam, octopus, salmon roe, mackerel, and even aburi-style sushi. Beyond that, you have a wonderful selection of classic and modern sushi rolls, steak tataki, and excellent tempura and udon. This systematically checks all of my boxes with the one exception of uni (sea urchin). The cuts/portions are excellent, like you would actually experience in a sushi restaurant that is top-notch in Toronto or Vancouver. COVID unfortunately changed the landscape of what was available in London, Ontario, and several places ceased to exist, and many go-to destinations reduced their portions and quality in a way that left a cold shadow of the past. But Hanabi Sushi is the saviour of sushi in London and a shining beacon of excellence. You must try this restaurant!“

“Honestly this is my go to and favourite place to get sushi! The owner and staff are so nice and the service is quick!

I’ll never stop going here, this place has my heart“

“I've been enjoying the culinary delights at this grill place for three days straight, savoring their perfectly grilled meats with impeccable flavors. The portions are generous, offering an authentic and delightful experience. The teriyaki beef and shrimp steamed rice are absolute favorites, and the mixed vegetables add a refreshing touch, making it the best spot in white oak food court.“

“This restaurant has a great variety of menu options, especially Japanese and Korean dishes. I ordered the salmon poke bowl, and it was delicious, with fresh salmon and a generous portion. The prices are also quite affordable. I especially liked that you can easily customize your poke bowl using the iPad, whether you want to add or remove certain toppings.

The server was very nice and welcoming, and they consistently checked in to make sure everything was good.

The restaurant itself has a cozy atmosphere and isn’t too noisy, making it a great place to chat and enjoy your meal.“

“Amazing fast ordering and delivery of fresh, hot, delicious food every time!“

“I’ve picked up lunch from this location many times and always had a wonderful experience! The owner Sky, as well as his colleagues, are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable when it comes to dietary restrictions (gluten free). For pre-made sushi the quality is excellent. Thank you for your consistency and warm smiles each visit!

Dietary restrictions: Owner and staff are knowledgeable regarding gluten free sushi. If made aware of an allergy, they go out of their way to tell you which options you’re able to eat. Staff also double check ingredient packages if asked to ensure that the product you’re purchasing is safe. Level of care and accommodation create a stress free experience.“

“I ordered online and was able to schedule my pick-up for later in the day. My daughter loves their beef ramen soup. This time we also ordered sushi and I tried their tofu ramen noodle bowl and spring rolls. It was all very good and fresh tasting. We will be back for sure 👍.“

“The burrito is truly a delightful innovation. The freshness and subtlety of sushi are perfectly encapsulated in the form of a wrap. Each bite is filled with rich flavors and textures, from the tender fish to the soft rice, all harmoniously balanced with vegetables and sauce. i will try other next “

“Honestly, we demolished a workout and demolished their profit margins after and they treated us very well. 4 of us ate about 80 pieces of meat + 40 pieces of sushi, alongside some appetizers & loved every bit of it. Great service and great quality food.“

“Love their sushi roll, especially their vegas roll😋😋“
