Kawata Japanese Restaurant

Don't let the looks of the building (a renovated Pizza Hut) or the location (across from Home Depot on Old Picket Road) fool you. This place is fantastic! The fish is always fresh and tender, and the owners remember you and make you feel welcome when you walk in the door. The menu is reasonably priced and the selection is good. They have a number of combos in the $20 range, as well as the usual a la carte selections. The atmosphere is nice, considering the space they had to work with, but honestly - you're not coming here for the decor, you're coming for the fish. It's some of the best I've found in the area, and definitely the best at this price range. Give it a try sometime. You won't be disappointed!

Best sushi in the area and at a good price. Everything tastes very fresh and the rice doesn't taste hard and starchy like its had been in the fridge since yesterday like most places I've tried. I usually throw the rice away and just eat the fish, but not here. Dragon roll is amazing!
