Palace of Japan

Exceptional food! This is a family and date night favorite. The atmosphere is always relaxing with their dim lighting and water fall fixtures. I like how private is, the service is always prompt. I’ve had my daughter’s sweet sixteen dinner here with a large party & we were well taken care of. I’ve also chosen this place for a double date to introduce my friends to their cuisine. My top favorites are: shrimp teriyaki bento box with fried rice, shrimp & vegetable tempura bento box & the Salmon supreme dish with the delicious sauce.

I was never a fan of Japanese Cousin and Rolls until I moved to Riverdale and tried this restaurant. In particular, I am a fan of Hand Rolls, such as smoked salmon avocado or spicey yellow tail, because they are in small sizes, fresh, tasty, and inexpensive. I had their beef ramen soup daily while being under the weather with the flu.

I recently had the pleasure of ordering from this establishment after quite some time, and I felt truly valued by the experience. My order arrived with great attention to detail, and I was pleasantly surprised to find metal cutlery, including a fork and two chopsticks. Such thoughtful touches make a significant impact. The restaurant has maintained its excellent standards, just as I remembered. I eagerly anticipate my next visit.

I can't begin to explain how good the food is. The appetizers such as the scallion pancake, shumai, and dumplings were extremely crispy. They were really flavorful and fresh. The food came on a sushi boat with some carved ice sculptures. The raw salmon was absolutely to die for. The wasabi also looked and tasted authentic. The owners and servers are so nice as well! The decorations and music made the place feel welcoming and comfortable.

I have seen this location many times and never went in. So sad I didn't, the food is delicious. The look of the restaurant is so beautiful and the service was pleasant and quick. I will definitely return.
