The Most Delicious Japanese in Omaha

International Buffet

★★☆☆☆ 2.4 (42) • $$

"Some of my co-workers and I went to the International Buffet today for lunch and it was an okay experience.We walk in and were seated immediately, in the back of the restaurant. It was kind of weird that they sat us back there since the place was pretty dead. Not a big deal, just kind of odd.I was hungry so I bee-lined straight to the buffet. Total, I got two plates of a bunch of different 'Chinese' dishes and two plates of crab rangoons. (obviously no crab in them but they tasted okay.) I would have gotten sushi but they didn't have any out when I was eating. They waited till I got my dessert to bring out the sushi; not sure how their buffet sushi would have tasted any way.For dessert, I got a small cup of their self-serve ice cream. It was good, not great.The service was good. they came to our table a few tables making sure that we had refills and asked if we needed anything.The price was pretty cheap for lunch. I got a water to drink and my total was $8.20 - which isn't bad.All in all, the food was okay - typical Chinese buffet food texture and taste. Not sure if I'll go back or not."

Miyake Sushi House Grill

★★★★☆ 4.4 (67) • $$

"We wanted to try a new sushi restaurant and chose this after the high reviews. While the edamame, gyoza, and sushi was delicious I felt this was pricey for what we received...especially for hungry boys. $12 for 6 pieces of sushi is not in my budget for a teenager and have leaned from my mistake. This will be a great date night location for us. The sushi was fresh, delicious, and neatly crafted so I appreciate their work. They were somewhat slow to serve, but I know sushi making isn't fast work. Plus, this weeknight was packed for them."

Kyoto

★★★★☆ 4.1 (110) • $$

"Visited Kyoto on a Sunday afternoon. Interior looked a bit grim. We're quickly taken to a table. Ordered various sushi items - Alaska, Philadelphia, California, Crunchy yellowtail. Everything tasted really good. They have a fantastic happy hour menu and I strongly suggest checking it. Servers were very attentive through out. We can't wait to go back and already recommended this place to our friends and family who live around the area."

Ninja Steak and Sushi House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (31)

"Our FAVORITE place for Japanese food. Easy to find, it's on the main road way. The interior is nice and cozy. The staff is polite, friendly, patient, and so nice. They even have a wonderful staff who makes the amazing food and drinks. It is definitely worth th drive for us from Kansas to eat here. The miso soup is so amazing, and so is the iced Thai tea. The calamari is good, but I do prefer the veggie tempura. I LOVE that you can get 2 different sizes of miso soup to go also. The sashimi is absolutely amazing. They also have sushi options and hibachi. The hibachi is very good as well, but we prefer the sashimi. They offer dessert as well. They even have drink options of saki and beers from Japan. This is definitely our favorite place to eat. It is worth the visit alone just to try it,you won't regret it."

Tokyo Sushi

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (295) • $$

"We went with another couple for a late lunch over the weekend, and we all walked away absolutely stuffed. We ordered 10 rolls, but I think I walked away eating one. The eggrolls were cooked fresh and tasted great, but what sushi our friend picked was delicious. I was shocked at how quickly the fresh rolled sushi came out. I will definitely be bringing our boys to get their fill of sushi, but I think I'll try to come during the weekday so it's a little bit cheaper."

Teriyaki Express

★★★★☆ 4 (38) • $

"I ordered take out here, and unfortunately didn't receive my whole order.Additionally, I got the check bento box. I think the chicken was good, it was very similar to the teriyaki from Sarku Japan. I like the it included sushi and pot stickers. The sushi wasn't the best ever, and the pot stickers were missing some type of sauce. I also got the crab rangoon, and again, missing the sauce so it wasn't overall a great first experience, perhaps would be better in person."

Kasumi

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (49)

"The price is good but the sushi isn't the greatest quality, the cheesecake dessert is yummy but it used to be a lot bigger. The waitress we had was very nice though. The seafood boil was pretty good though not the best I've ever had but it was better than the sushi I'd say. I do like how they have the all you can eat sushi though."

Sakura Sushi & Hibachi

★★★★☆ 4 (108) • $$

"This is one of my favorite places to eat. The food is always fantastic! We usually go for lunch because they have good lunch specials. My favorite is the bento box. It has multiple customizable options. You get choices of protein,( panko, teriyaki, or katsu) plain or fried rice, appetizers, it comes with a few pieces of the California roll as well as their clear soup, which I adore. The soup is so simple yet so flavorful. The lunch hibachi is really great too. It comes with your choice of protein, lots of veggies, fried rice, soup and salad. The salads are pretty simple, they consist primarily of iceberg lettuce, and you have the option of ranch or ginger dressing. I recommend the ginger because it is infinitely better. The reason I gave four stars instead of five is because the service can be hit or miss depending on your server. They are all very nice, but sometimes they forget your soup or never come back by to check on you after they drop off the food, things like that. For the most part though, they do a great job!"

Tokyo Japanese Cuisine

★★★★☆ 4.1 (10)

"I've eaten here once during my lunch break and go the L3 Roll Special for Lunch. It was great! So many of my coworkers commented on how good the food looked and smelled. I absolutely adore miso soup and seaweed salad for a special treat. I ordered upon arrival and it didn't take more than 10mins to get my food. I'm sure it would've been faster if I called ahead.I don't live in the area, but I do work here occasionally, so Tokyo is a fun treat. Hoping hubby will agree to me being on home some takeout tonight so I can once again enjoy the fresh and delicious options they have.This is truly a gem of a restaurant in this area of Nebraska. You should definitely try it sometime!I haven't eaten inside the restaurant, so I cannot speak to that side of the service, but if it's anything like their takeout, I'd imagine it's pretty stellar."

My Tokyo Ramen & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.2 (9)

"This place has one of the most extensive ramen menus I've ever seen. If you live ramen, come here! There are options for carnivores, pescatarians, vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free. If you don't like ramen, try one of their rice bowls! Be careful with parking. Do not park in front of the hotel or near the hotel because they will tow your car. Service here was really great. The inside could use a freshening up, but I think they recently bought the place. The food was so good it Durand batter much what it looks like."

Teriyaki Madness

★★★★☆ 4.3 (10)

"The food is great, fresh and cooked to order. The vegetables on the side were really nice. The drawback is if they are busy you are looking at a 20 minute wait and if they are slow it is still at least 10. The ordering was fast and efficient. They are slightly pricey compared to your burger and Taco places, but it tasted a lot better. They also have outdoor seating and they are the only place we have been to in Nebraska with sweet tea."

Kinja Sushi & Japanese Cuisine

★★★★☆ 3.7 (95) • $$

"We did sushi takeout for a special celebration and LOVED EVERYTHING! So fresh! Well done, Kinja!We have never tried a scallop roll and we're surprised by how delightful it was. Highly recommend!"

Kaiyo Sushi

★★★★★ 4.5 (69) • $$

"A small group of us went for their lunch since we've been wanting to try this place. I opted for the California roll and 50 Cent crab Rangoons that day. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Decently priced for the lunch menu. I walked out with a drink, soup, sushi roll, and crab rangooons for under $20"

Umami

★★★★★ 4.5 (433) • $$

"Wow the yellow curry here is amazing. It was the right amount of spicy yet sweet from the coconut milk, and had a variety of vegetables in it. I ordered it with tofu which was great- not spongy at all. I got it delivered from uber eats, and it was prepared exactly on time as it said on the app. It came hot and with a side of rice, ready to eat!"

Hutong Sushi Grill

★★★★☆ 4 (90) • $$

"My new sushi destination. Las Vegas roll rocks as does the spicy tuna. Fresh, very good quality and excellent value. One of my favorite spots in Papillion."

NINJA Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (36) • $

"Ninja is the kind of hole in the wall sushi joint Lincoln needs. There sushi is as good as Blue, but cheaper and faster. Oh they deliver too. Also they do chinese food. I've never tried it but they make it."

Grey Whale Sushi & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.2 (198) • $$

"Lunch prices are very reasonable. 3 generously sized rolls are $15 - large and filling. If you check in via Yelp, you'll get a side of free edamame. Service can be slow as there's only one person doing double duty as host and server. There was a small wait before food arrived so the free edamame was appreciated."

Fuji Steak House

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (52) • $$

"Stopped in with a larger group. They got us in quickly. We sat at the hibachi area. Our chef did a great job of interacting with us. I actually got the Ocean Sushi Platter along with the Yum Yum roll. It was all great! The only downside to our visit was they were very strict on the alcohol. They wouldn't get some in our party another drink without showing they drank most of it. It was definitely a bit strange. Otherwise, our experience was great."

Saru Hibachi and Sushi

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Friends suggested this for their good food options. We chose Shrimp Hibachi and sharing really good food from here."

Shokunin

★★★★★ 4.6 (109) • $$

"The service is so friendly! You can taste that every sushi is made with heart and soul! Even from a simple California roll, it tasted fresh and so flavorful idk what they did but it was incredible! We also got spicy salmon roll, spider roll, and shiitake mushroom roll! Everything was made so well.The happy hour menu was slightly cheaper but not much, but it was a treat coming here! My friend has been raving about it and I'm glad we got the opportunity to try it finally"

Jade Palace

★★★★☆ 3.9 (128) • $

"You know the staff is nice and friendly. I would say the shrimp fried rice. Is very delicious they give you a lot of food. It's even good reheated the next day"

Sakura Bana

★★★★☆ 4.1 (182) • $$

"Sakura Bana is at the top of my list for Sushi in Omaha. What you get here is authentic, unique and delicious rolls and dishes that you won't be able to find at other sushi areas around. They have unique flavors, like the Volcano Roll, and some more classic rolls like the Mango Roll. Whether you like sashimi or teriyaki chicken or a good California Roll you will be able to find something here.We got our food relatively quickly but the ambiance was simple, easy, and authentic to what we were going to eat. It wasn't anything flashy - it was just what we needed. All of the servers we interacted with were kind and helpful in picking our food and getting us what we needed.Give this one a try!"

Wasabi Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.1 (95) • $$

"This was a nice choice for dinner. Chinese/Japanese food in Nebraska??? But Yes!The OMG roll is a must!"

Ajisai Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.4 (25)

"Well this place is way better than the AYCE sushi place downtown Tokyo sushi ? by a landslide but not sure if it was because it was Xmas or because they want you to fill up but service was slow and they would not bring out everything you ordered . Still gave it four stars because they were so friendly, warm and welcome even if aforementioned was not up to par. Of course the kids were highly entertained by the robo kitty ‍ server that brought the majority of our food . In general the space is super clean and modern with cute decor. As of Xmas day 2024 kids at least three and under were free of charge and my six year old they charged $13.99. All the adults were $23 or $24.99 for all day dinner . My parents loved it I think mostly because they included sashimi. So yep we will probably be back!"

Koen Japanese BBQ & Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.4 (121)

"On our road trip through Lincoln, my husband wanted steak for our anniversary dinner. But I wanted something fun and different since most steakhouses feel formal and stuffy which wasn't my road trip mood. So we ended up here to satisfy what we were both looking for. My husband got the beef platter, with so much meat, which included: Yaki - Shabu Beef, Filet Mignon and Kalbi Short Rib. And I got the Koen Kirin which included: Gyoza (3 pcs), Hanger Steak, Top Sirloin, Spicy Pork Belly, Chicken Bulgogi and Sweet Potato. Each table has a grill to cook your meats how you like and had 3 dipping sauces to add that tasty final touch. This was the perfect spot for our anniversary dinner."

Omaha Teriyaki

★★★★★ 4.5 (10)

"I've been coming here for the past month or two and this place is SOOO good!! Food is always 10/10, staff is nice, and quick service. This place is a staple for me!"

Ninja Steak & Sushi house

★★★★☆ 3.7 (74) • $$

"Not worth the 4 stars it has!!!The Good:We were greater and seated be very nice staff who was friendly throughout our whole time there. That's about the good here...The Bad:My sushi had no flavor at all. Fish seemed blah and old. The spicy salmon roll had no spice in it and the rice around it was very dry like it had been sitting out for hours. The only flavor on the lava roll was the sauce over the top which tasted like cery thick teriyaki sauce. Not great flavor. But some flavor.The Ugly Truth: If you want great service and picturous presentation of food this is a plave you will like. If you want your food to taste good and not just fill your empty stomach then any place else in town would be a better choice.We were so excited to have found a new place to try and it came recommended from friends as well, but surely didn't live up to the hype."

Ninjaa Japan Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3 (17)

"We finally got around to trying this newer Omaha restaurant for an easy take out night. Their portions were generous, everything was cooked well and tasted great! Our favorites: chicken teriyaki with veggies and noodles (get the noodles you guys) and their crab rangoons. This particular evening we were looking for a good deal and something quick! This was both - one meal and app served 2 hungry parents and a curious toddler. We look forward to coming back and trying some of the hibachi offerings as well!"

Grey Whale Poke Bowl

★★★★☆ 4 (76) • $$

"Been here twice now as this is the ONLY place in the area to get my poke fix.Luckily this place has lots of great options and gives good portion sizes for a reasonable price.Will defibiteky be back next time I'm in the area for business.Cheers!"
