East Japanese Restaurant 

-Authentic Japanese Hand Roll Sushi and Noodle- 

 

Founded in 1983 in New York City by Mr. Wakayama, East Japanese Restaurant is rooted in the philosophy of Japanese casual gourmet cuisine, bringing authentic flavors to discerning guests.

​

Our owner-chef, raised in Japan in a restaurant family, trained in New York, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia as an executive chef within the East Group. His experience collaborating with chefs from diverse backgrounds shaped a unique culinary style that later earned him a Michelin star.

​

At East Japanese Restaurant, our goal is to create thoughtful, exciting hand roll sushi that blend familiar flavors with quality ingredients through our philosophy of Japanese casual gourmet cuisine.

​

We offer two distinct dining experiences:

At the sushi bar, enjoy our Hand Roll Course served piece by piece by our chefs. In our dining room, enjoy a Teishoku Set Menu featuring hand rolls, soba, and Japanese specialties.
