Best Japanese Restaurants in East Norwalk

Great food, drinks service, and ambiance! And the location was just as beautiful.

Prime is one of my favorite restaurants in Stamford. My brother and I both had steak. The filet mignon and skirt steak were cooked perfectly. The sides were also excellent. I was disappointed with the martini. The glass wasn’t completely full after the pour and the waitress had to go back to the bartender to get more martini! It’s the food (and a good wine list) that keeps me coming back!

Honestly, for the vibe, the food, and the value, I cannot believe this isn't the top of the list for high-end restaurants in the area. It's an absolute Gem. The owner walked around and checked in on every table—a super friendly fella. The only thing I'd add is that you have to vale your car, which if you're on a date is actually a huge net positive, which I was.

The food and service were both outstanding. Each piece of nigiri was beautiful and flavorful. The salmon teriyaki was a center cut piece and cooked perfectly with a sauce that was not overpowering and not too sweet. And it was served with a nice salad with plenty of perfectly ripe avocados. The Kumamoto oysters were a nice treat that we do not see a lot on the East Coast. And the ability of BYOB is always a nice bonus. This restaurant never disappoints.

The food we have had was very good and fresh. Their toro is the best around. Service is quick and responsive…shout out to Ivan!
