The Most Delectable Japanese in El Paso

Mirai Bowl Japanese Express

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (12) • $

"Mirai Bowl is a great place if you want Japanese/Korean flavor fast and don't want to fork over $20 for it like the other places in town. The location on Lee Trevino has staff that are always friendly, and the food (except for the sushi) is always prepared fresh to order. On a recent visit I broke from my typical order of Teriyaki Chicken and ordered the Spicy Ginger pork. I'm not sure if this is on the Menu at the other locations, but I figure since the workers at the Lee Trevino location are Korean, they serve up this traditional Korean dish. Needless to say, I now have a new favorite dish at Mirai Bowl, which combines the perfect amount of spice and flavor. Go here if you want a quick Asian fix but want to pass on typical buffet quality for something that is prepared fresh."

Rex Ball

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Delicious and unique food that you can't find anywhere else in El Paso. They sell large portions of fried balls of rice and your choice of meat inside, I prefer the shrimp. They also have burgers and tacos for those not adventurous enough to try the Rex Balls. A new and different cuisine for El Paso, don't miss it!"

Kaizen Sushi

★★★★☆ 4 (79)

"**experience during covid-19 ** I found this place on yelp as a candidate for sushi delivery. I ordered edamame as I always do with sushi orders. I love steamed edamame! I did notice they were not seasoned in any way and I didn't see an option for spicy ones.We ordered 3 different rolls:-Las vegas: avocado, cream cheese, shrimp, crab, and salmon. (Deep fried)-Furikake: avocado, cream cheese, crab, and shrimp. (Nori wrapped on the outside)-El dorado: avocado, cucumbers, cream cheese, and shrimp. It also will have spicy tuna on top of roll.I am usually not one for deep fried rolls over the others. This time I have to say my favorite was the las vegas roll by far. As far as the delivery time it took around 50 minutes to arrive from the time that I ordered. It's actually not a bad time for everything considering it is a few miles from the destination."

Hayashi Japanese Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 4.1 (78)

"Really good sushi place for Midland, TX!! Seafood taste fresh, service was good, and everything was reasonably priced. We started with gyoza and calamari. The portion on the calamari was a bit small but no real complaint. Both were cooked well. Then I had a clear soup which was good. Finished off with two rolls of sushi. Would definitely recommend if someone is in the area."

"Wow!! I judge Japanese fast food by the katsu-don. I do not know who opened this place, but well done sir!All the flavors were dead on. I used to eat katsu-don a lot in Japan, and this place tastes as good as the rest of the fast food joints in Tokyo. IT was a very comforting flavor :)The meat had good texture, it wasn't too tough. The flavor of the sauce was right on!Sadly, I got fried rice instead of steamed rice. Minus one star not for the mistake, but for the flavor of the rice. I think there was way too much pepper or something. It just didn't taste good. However, the wonderful girl behind the counter recognized the mistake and was happy to give me a side of steamed rice with the sauce (I didn't want them to remake the whole dish). I was very impressed when I saw her actually mixing the sauce on the spot.I am a fan!"

Sunny's Sushi

★★★★★ 4.6 (30)

"I have been to the other Sunny's on Redd Road, and the food and service are the same - excellent! It was not too busy, so I was seated and quickly served. I recommend trying this place if you haven't."

Osaka Japanese Steakhouse - Faudree

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (106) • $$

"I recommend eating there... this is what I got when we got it to go. Feel like there was such a little amount of meat for $18. But the meat did taste good."

Kee's Teriyaki & Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.1 (74) • $$

"The service was quick and friendly! We walked right in, and got sat down right away. The waitress was friendly enough to explain a few things and off we went to order! The food came out, and we loved it. Felt like a family restaurant and such BIG portions too."

Hibachi Express Japanese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (39)

"So I'm on my 2-week hitch and I'm craving some decent Chinese food and they just happened to move me to Midland Tx away from Colorado. So my coworker said let's hit this place up, they're pretty good. We arrive and it's in a Lil Strip shopping center, nothing unassuming. We walk in and nothing fancy but they have a decent assortment of sushi rolls and their hibachi offerings. I ordered the Jalapeño Combo with fried rice, chicken, steak, and shrimp and an order of egg rolls. My food is handed to me and I get to work and proceed to begin with the egg rolls; they're your typical egg rolls, nothing fancy at all or anything to make them stand out but they are tasty. On to my main course and it's pretty well stocked with fried rice, veggies, and proteins. The plate was flavorful and I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the shrimp, they were a good size and not the cocktail variety. They were meaty and good as were the chicken and steak pieces. I'm pleasantly full and ready to take a nap but I'm at work. The only thing that would have set it apart is no Hot Chili Oil available."

Katsura Sushi Bar

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (65) • $$

"Wonderful! Udon like home cooked. Sushi tasty and well presented. Server first day. Needs more training but hey he's working! Where are the servers? Will come back. Authentic japanese cuisine in a beautiful setting."

Sushiing Japanese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (108) • $$

"I brought a friend because we both love sushi. The place was pretty full but we were seated right away. My friend was blown away by this concept and it made our visit so enjoyable. We must of eaten 15 plates of food but the great thing is the portions ate small. The whole idea is to take what you like from the conveyor belt and try different things. Everything was good, service was nice, and cost rnded up comparable to what two meals would have cost. My only suggestion would be for the covers to be clearer plastic or labels on them so you know what your getting. We'll be back!"

Sushi Garden

★★★★★ 4.5 (343) • $$

"Always consistent, always flavorful, always generous with their servings. Service is attentive. For a small place, there is still plenty of seating without feeling like you're on top of your neighbor. Lots of menu options to choose from. Current favorites are the southwestern and caterpillar rolls. For non-sushi people, their beef bulgogi is a tasty alternative! I wish they'd bring back some sake, beer, wine though..."

Yongs Bowl

★★★★☆ 3.7 (19) • $$

"We absolutely love this place! Wonderful customer service and the food was made fresh so we did have to wait 15 minutes, but it was well worth it. Look at all that avocado on the sushi!! Just amazing! The ribs were flavorful and super tender. And trust me, I had so many Kalbi ribs that were not tender, this place isn't one! The below plate was about $24. (Korean bbq box and sushi)"

Sansei Japanese Restaurant

★★☆☆☆ 2 (5)

"Great place to get Hibachi food cooked right in front of you to go!!!! Located in Bassett Mall, this place also serves sushi. My go to when we want hibachi type food fast. Come early! Be patient."

Mirai Bowl

★★★★☆ 3.6 (48) • $

"I stopped next door at "verde salad" around noon (lunch time) but their line was very long and not moving so I walked to Mirai Bowl. I encountered fast service, healthy and delicious food. I paid $11 for their "sunkissed roll" which consisted of salmon and avocado. I also tried their matcha flavor ice cream wafer and I was very pleased with both."

Sunny's Sushi Steak Seafood House

★★★★☆ 3.5 (195) • $$

"We haven't even left yet but I had to give this place 5 stars! The food has been incredible and in addition to amazing sushi, they have fantastic cocktail and dessert options! Ambiance is also wonderful with good music and good vibes all around. 12/10."

Sumo Sushi & Hibachi

★★★★★ 4.7 (82)

"I just moved to the area about 2.5 years ago and am used to having sushi on a regular basis in a major metropolitan area where the sushi places outnumbered the steak places. I was SO worried that I wouldn't find a good place to eat sushi. Not only am I used to having great sushi at the ready all the time in Albuquerque, I've also had sushi along the West coast from California to Seattle as well as in fancy restaurants in Las Vegas and Dallas.I am dead serious when I tell you that the sushi at Sumo beats them all! They also have the best staff! This is the only place where they ALWAYS hear me when I request no ginger or wasabi on the plate let alone the table because then I can't get the flavor out of my food. It has never been an issue here! And they are generous when you ask for sides of eel sauce and spicy mayo!The fish is so fresh and delicious that even my "anti-sushi" husband CRAVES the sushi here. He even had some salmon sashimi and he never does ANY of the raw fish! I don't think he has even had cooked salmon before! We also tried the fried rice and it was worth every pound we gained from it!The restaurant itself makes you feel like you are in Japan! The hibachi area is so cute and they give out balloon dolls for free to the kids that are so much fun! The decor is authentic and constantly gives you something to look at!This hidden gem is a must try!"

Mirai Bowl Express

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (23) • $

"Mirai Bowl is a new experience for me. I recently discovered it through a friend and have been here a few times since. It's a very simple menu and the idea of "japanese fast food" doesn't hold anymore true then this eatery. I always order the number one and found that adding the vegetables to it really rounds out a great dish. The salmon was good when I tried it and the beef was good as well. Price is great and it's a very filling dish. I wish the inside seating area was a bit bigger but there isn't much room to work with so I fully understand. Definitely give it a try if you're in the area."

Mario’s Japanese Steak house and Sushi bar

"The food is good and service is great. Atmosphere is comfortable,prices are reasonable. Enjoyed it all thank you."

Sushi Itto

★★★★☆ 3.8 (78)

"Really enjoyed my first lunch visit here earlier today. The location has a nice vibe, it's not huge but adequate dining space with tables, teppanyaki stations and bar seating. Ordered the build your own bento box for $20, added the teriyaki chicken for $5 and added a couple nigiri's (shrimp & salmon - not pictured) on the side. All of the food was very good and the service was top notch. It's great to know about a sushi option downtown that delivers on taste, service and quality. I look forward to future visits!"

Ling’s foodie Hub

★★★★☆ 4.3 (7)

"The Ramen is a very impressive size and incredibly tasty. The garlic melts into the pork broth, you can taste it in every bite. The three chicken rolls were just right before the Ramen. The service staff are extremely attentive. The restaurant is quiet and off the beaten path. If you're in the area, give it a try!!"

Osaka Japanese Steakhouse & Seafood

"Beautiful place, awesome service and the food is great. The price might be a bit high but the amount of food given to you is worth it"

Chalkboard Menu

★★★★☆ 4.2 (6)

"Interesting spot with an eclectic menu and decor. Ribs, birria ramen and chicken Alfredo were all enjoyed by our group."

Katsura Sushi Bar

★★☆☆☆ 2.1 (70) • $$

"I took my little one here with me and she got the chicken skewer and rice. She kept saying that it was sooo good. We got calamari for an appetizer and it was not good, it was spicy and too salty. I felt like they overcooked it so i wont be getting that next time. I got the bermudez roll and I totally loved it! Their miso soup was really good and it has good flavor. The place was clean and the bathroom as well. They also had great customer service! I would be coming back to this place!"

Kee's Teriyaki & Sushi

★★★★☆ 4 (86) • $$

"Dec 2020. 5 stars out of 5 for taste. This restaurant is great for lunch or to pick up dinner to go. Near main post (Fort Bliss) on Dyer Street next to a Circle K. Google maps will take you a fee hundred feet after its actual location but the Waze App will put you in the right location. Small cute, awesome for to go orders. Caring costumer service with Seattle Style Sushi. I really enjoyed their version of California roll and Spicy tuna. Will definitely come back."

The Sushi Place & Lounge

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (97) • $$

"DEC 2020 Beautiful Restaurant with attentive costumer Service. Ordered sushi to go. It is not a fast food restaurant so it did take a while to get our order. Along with the sushi we were given miso soup. Ordered pork and shrimp pot stickers My fave were shrimp and all sushi was tasty. I will definitely like to come back when able to eat-in. Loved the Christmas Decor. One observation .... the whole time the staff only spoke Spanish even thou I always replied in English."

Hamachi Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.8 (175) • $$

"Tried with a group of friends and had a good selection to try from. Tried the gyoza, salmon sashimi, Lava roll, caliente roll, chicken katsu bento and Tempura ice cream with mochi. The gyoza is decently flavored but is not an item that I would drive that far to eat. The salmon sashimi didn't have a bad odor, however, it didn't taste fresh which was disappointing. Given we aren't by the coast, I wouldn't expect that freshness here.The Lava roll is was flavorful, however, it's a Americanized version which was definitely not authentic. I would order it again if I go back. The caliente roll wasn't my favorite; it was not fresh or flavorful. The chicken katsu bento was underwhelming since the chicken was less than a cm thick which felt like if I was eating fried bread crumbs unfortunately, don't order it if you are looking for some real katsu.The dessert wasn't a bad option to try, it had decent flavor of the macha ice-cream and tempura was a little bit thick; however, it wasn't disappointing."

W&Z Asian Bistro & Sushi Bar

★★★★☆ 3.5 (32) • $$

"New to town so we have tried all three Asian places in Silver City. This place wins! We eat often and order take out often it's a guaranteed good Asian meal. My husband gets orange chicken and sesame chicken I get sushi and different items often. They treat us well always and we are thankful to them for existing. We will stay regular customers always. ~The Boyd's"

Shogun Steak House

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (83) • $$

"Had the hibachi meal & the chef didn't disappoint. Fried rice, veggies and steak all cooked table side. There were a few highlights and flame techniques. A wonderful experience and meal. The menu is extensive despite the grill options, including sushi. The sushi is very fresh. There's also fruit flavored sake and teas, which you don't find too often. You won't leave hungry."

Riyoma

★★★★☆ 4.2 (99) • $$

"So far, this is the best sushi I have had in El Paso. If you are seeking actual Japanese style sushi/sashimi/rolls/chirashi, this is the place. Service was on point, all the fish was fresh and delicious."

Sansei Japanese Cuisine

★★★★☆ 3.5 (11) • $

"Today, for lunch, we stopped at the Sansei Japan restaurant in the Mesilla Valley Mall. My wife had the chicken teriyaki and I had the beef teriyaki. We both had the entrees with chow mein (noodles) instead of steamed rice. Both of our meals were very good and they did not scrimp on the noodles or veggies. Mall ambience. Excellent service with no chance of your meal not being hot, since it is cooked right in front of you."
