The best restaurantsof japanese in Dublin

06/10/2025: Yamamori Izakaya is one of those places that makes you forget you're in Europe and transports you straight to Japan. The atmosphere is warm, modern, and vibrant, with soft lighting, perfect music, and a contagious energy that makes the evening special from the very first moment. We tried several dishes, and one after another, they were spectacular: the fragrant and flavorful gyoza, the duck pancakes surprisingly balanced and flavorful, the ultra-fresh tuna sushi crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the crispy and light fried chicken, and the soft and authentic takoyaki, just like at the best izakayas in Tokyo. Special praise goes to the staff, who are truly exceptional: kind, smiling, and professional, capable of creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere without ever compromising efficiency. It's rare to find such attentive and genuine service. A place that combines quality, atmosphere, and humanity: absolutely not to be missed for anyone who loves Japanese cuisine or simply wants to experience an unforgettable evening in Dublin.

04/10/2025: We went twice, the gyozas and the salmon hosomaki were delicious!

15/08/2025: Been coming here since they open! To all Malaysian! Those cakes and tarts are so close to home!

19/09/2025: Great spot, delicious food, amazing staff, the dumplings were exceptional, the special rolls are huge! We will definitely come back!

18/09/2025: My favourite place to get sushi. As ive been diagnosed with IBS this place is the easiest place to go out for a dinner date. Sadly in most places the only sushi options gluten free are either salmon or tuna. But at Aoki I love that I get a little bit more choices. Also their soy sauce is gluten free. Its a small cozy place I would say book a table as on the weekends its a bit busy and also book early. The service is outstanding, the staff is super friendly, the decor is super cute.

24/09/2025: The place is cosy and the food was excellent! The service is very good too.

13/09/2025: Nice place, good food, friendly staff. A bit expensive for the portions served. 50€ PP if you don’t want to eat again in 2 hours.

06/10/2025: Very good restaurant, high quality and very good price, especially Rocio and Waki ​​are very friendly and helpful, we will definitely return.

06/10/2025: Nice authentic Japanese food. Will go back soon.

10/09/2025: I love going here for lunch. The daily bento box or poke bowl are always delicious and well portioned. Great food and atmosphere.

05/09/2025: It brought back fond memories of my vacation in Japan. Delicious ramen and sushi. A large selection of different dishes, with something for everyone.

12/10/2025: Great atmosphere, food was fabulous. Price was so good really worth every penny. €150 for 3 people in total included 3 x starters to share, 3 x mains with 2 different meats, veg and rice. Staff where friendly, funny and so entertaining. Great for a girls night out and or a night with the family.

23/09/2025: Everything was top-notch quality. Taste, preparation, service & staff … love to go back :)

08/10/2025: Great food, it's been a while but I love this place, top notch place. Beautiful starter Spider Crab starter then Tatsuhi Age main, outstanding service.

05/10/2025: Excellent food and service! The ramen was huge! At first I thought €20 was to expensive, but you get a lot of meat and I was more than full afterwards! Thanks again to Nozomi. She was really lovely. I was even able to use my handful of japanese phrases and she seemed to enjoy it. 😆 It was a pleasure.

10/10/2025: Easily my favorite ramen place in Dublin! I've ordered from here many times on Deliveroo, but decided to walk and I definitely didn't regret it. The portions feel even bigger, tastier, and spicier (I'm a big fan of the spicy beef ramen, highly recommend it here). The staff are great, and the plum wine is superb The only downside is that the place is quite small, just a few tables, so you might have to wait for a seat. Still, it's absolutely worth it!

05/10/2025: It's a cute spot and the server was very friendly. I can't judge the rest of the menu, but we came there for vegan ramen and it was a disappointment. The broth leaned very sour and algee forward, the toppings were quite low effort and the noodles were vermicelli. Felt a bit like they had it on the menu just in case your group had an accidental vegan, but there were two women behind us also asking for vegan options so it probably wouldn't hurt to make that one vegan thing on the menu actually good.

29/09/2025: Tasy Yummy Food , just what was required. Extensive menu i would happily visit again to explore more

23/09/2025: Delicious food, we have been coming here for years,

26/09/2025: The worst "Japanese" food I've ever eaten...

07/09/2025: Ordered the Bodan sushi selection (through Deliveroo) - it didn’t taste fresh at all and the texture of the fish was off

25/08/2025: Came for dinner, and the sushi was incredibly fresh. Probably some of the best salmon I have had in a long time. Would absolutely recommend.

20/08/2025: Liked the spicy tonkatsu ramen very much. Nice atmosphere. Felt like I could sit for hours and chill. Will definitely come back.

04/06/2025: Delicious food in a cozy place, the service was incredible as well — super quick and the server was a sweetheart. Will definitely be back!

13/10/2025: We couldn't get in, there were so many people waiting. I've got it saved in case I come back. But it looks like it must be pretty good.

11/10/2025: The food is very tasty. Seating is limited, so expect to wait.
