The best Japanese restaurants Croatia

Japanese restaurants are becoming more and more numerous in Zagreb. This one was one of the first to open. It serves refined wok cuisine, sushi menus and semi-gastronomic Japanese specialties. The decoration and the refined style of the Far Eastern furniture, the elementary colors and the great freshness of the products contribute to the success of the formula despite the higher prices than elsewhere. The management has another establishment in Dubrovnik. Nice wine and spirits list. Professional and courteous service.

Close to the station and set back from the seafront promenade, this fast-food restaurant is peaceful and well placed. For on-site dining, there's either an indoor dining room or a shaded terrace, which is elevated above the street. The menu features classic Japanese and Asian street food: gyozas, ramen noodles, poke bowls with avocado/edamame/soy salad and mochi for dessert. The chef accommodates food allergies, while service is discreet and prompt. In direct competition with the other well-known address, Chili Fusion Streetfood (Ribarski Trg).

Opening in 2021 in the Središće district, this restaurant (ex-Food Division) could appeal to the international public visiting the Museum of Contemporary Art just across the street. Beautiful minimalist-style dining room but, too bad, no terrace. Inspired by Japanese cuisine, dishes are served in black bowls, plates and trays. The menu is concise: beef tartare, savory dips, grilled meat or fish accompanied by Indian bread(naan) or savory waffles, Asian noodles, tempeh tofu, sushi, vegetarian bowls. You name it, we've got it.
