Good location and nice restaurant but the food was not traditional Japanese, not so good and most of the ingredients can be bought at regular groceries stores like soy sauce, sesame oil , nothing special about it.

After we had dinner at teppan table, we had to take a shower again due to the odor in our clothes and hair.
I think the restaurant ...

Best sushi EVAH!!!!

I discovered this place a couple of years ago when I went there for some friend's birthdays. I have not eaten on the grill side because I really don't like that sort of thing so I can only comment on their sushi which is phenomenal. Their pieces of fish are huge, larger than I have seen at any other Japanese ...

JMK Nippon has been in the Rockford area for over 20 years at 2 different locations. 20 years ago it was new and different, and I would laugh when novice patrons would complain of "no bread".

We had a reservation for 4 in the sushi bar section, which I have never before had. Our table was tucked back in the corner. Ok by us. We wanted to order sushi plus some old favorites. Our waitress took our drink order but had only brought us one menu for sushi. Our friends were trying to make thier choices so when she returned with our drinks we ...

We have lived in Rockford for 2 years and did not visit Nippon's until 2 weeks ago. Everyone that I have spoken to has raved about this place. We went there with my Dad who was visiting from Seattle and our 3 teenage children.

We had a reservation and still had to wait almost 45 minutes (on a school night) for our table. However, we did ...

Sorry to say but a Japanese Restaurant would never have rats in their restaurant yet alone try to chase one with a knife. lol Japanese are extremely particular with cleanliness and service and almost everything has to be top of the line for their customers. I lived in Japan for many many years and know how their attitude is about giving their ...
