Best Japanese Restaurants in Fountain Valley

This was our Valentine's weekend dinner and it could not have been more SPECIAL! Not only is the decor always warm, comfortable and inviting to see (Lots of BEAUTIFUL wood!), but the Customer experience was literally, off the charts! We were pleasantly/ genuinely enthusiastically greeted by 3 different people who treated us like valued guests, NOT just a Customer and this set the tone for a wonderful dinner! Our Server had to have been exhausted from the night before, but she didn't let it show! We felt VERY PAMPERED by her! (Sorry I didn't get her name, but Med length dark hair and we sat in a booth near the lobster tank.) And THE BEST part was the food! ALWAYS incredible and worth every penny! Husband had Cioppino that had SO much FRESH, WHOLE pieces of seafood (Shells were even intact!), that he used the tasty Texan Garlic bread to clean up his plate as the Cajun-style soup TASTED LIKE NEW ORLEANS! I had VERY delicious Shrimp - and they were SO LARGE, that I brought leftovers home to enjoy at another time. WONDERFUL DINNER! Thank you, King's! We will return!

All the staff was extremely kind and helpful to our group. We were well taken care of for the whole night and they never made us feel rushed.

Excrement service. Our tea cup was never empty. Each plate was served at a decent time after we finished our food. Very tasty omakase course

Manpuku consistently offers top quality food and services. Kentaro, the manager, runs a tight ship to make certain that the customers are happy and satisfied. Best Yakiniku restaurant, bar none.

This might be my favorite place to dine for a fun, casual, and delicious meal! We love taking people for their first yakitori experience because it’s so unique. As usual, everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly and our guests were delighted. I highly recommend the pork belly wrapped shiso basil. We all enjoyed it so much that I ordered it twice!
