I don’t really write reviews, but this place feels like stepping into Japan in the heart of Findlay Ohio. Great tasting, authentic food and friendly service. Good for a light lunch or a fantastic dinner. One of my top 3 in Findlay hands down. The sushi and sashimi is fresh and expertly prepared. Always friendly and a clean restaurant to boot.
Today was my first time at Japan West. I had gyudon and curry rice with grilled chicken. I enjoyed the food and atmosphere a lot! My dad loves sushi and we usually go to Dayton for him to get it but I will definitely be bringing him here to try the sushi here!
Favorite place in town for sushi and takoyaki.
Also a sweet treat after meal you should try!
All of them are really good
Pie awesomeness! I was in the navy stationed in Kapan and was really impressed with the authenticity of some of the food.
I had fried gyoza, eel avocado roll, and curry with grilled chicken. I was shocked to find a better option of Japanese authentic style food than back home in Florida. Great job guys! If I ever visit Findlay again this is where I’m going

I am in the process of moving from San Francisco to Boston, and am visiting a friend in Findlay while making The Grand Journey. They suggested going to this place as "it is allegedly the only place in town with decent sushi, but I am skeptical". Due to my experiences with independent restaurants in small towns in the US, I was skeptical as well, but decided to try it out. It may be worth mentioning that I have been to Japan and have had sushi so amazing that I have almost cried while eating it, and I have only ever lived in big cities my entire life where sushi is plentiful. Japan West in Findlay, OH is on par with my favorite sushi restaurants in Tokyo, and is definitely top 3 best sushi I have had in my life. I was floored. I understand the prices are high but I definitely think this is worth it. I am staying in Findlay longer than I had originally planned now just because I want to keep eating here. Customer service was exceptional. Quality of fish was INSANE. Seriously, all I did was order basic tekka and hamachi and I was instantly transported to Flavourtown. I wish I could rate Japan West higher than 5 stars.
This was a real treat that my friend surprised me. Japan West has Japanese "Izakaya" type of appetizers as well as great quality sushi! When you walk into a good sushi restaurant you should smell strong aroma of vinegered rice. That's what I smelled. Futomaki tasted like the ones I grew up eating back in Japan. Nigiri sushi were great also but hard to beat the ones in Hokkaido. I'd definitely recommend this place for anybody.
