I've been coming here for a while now, and it never misses. For a 'fast food' spot, the quality of their Japanese dishes is impressive. The pork chashu is the highlight for me--it's melt-in-your-mouth good. I also have to give a shout-out to their soy eggs, which are cooked perfectly. What really keeps me coming back is the friendly service and how consistent they are. Whether it's a busy lunch rush or a quick dinner, the food is always fresh and delicious. Definitely a local gem! read more

The food was ok. I had their pork spicy tokubetsu with udon and had good flavor. Being my first time there, the cashier didn't offer my options of protein or noddles. There was no customer service. The tables were also no cleaned from previous diners with food scraps on the floor. Some napkin dispensers were out of napkins. You are also ask to clean up after yourself when done. The bowl came out fast so must be instant ramen/udon noddles. This place has so much potential but needs to fix cleaning/customer service. read more

The food was tasty. We split the pork and it was enough for two women that are not big eaters. We also had some dumplings. The pork was very good as was the slaw. The rice was just white rice. The dumplings were good too. The only reason for 4 stars was because it's a very bare bones place with not much in the way of ambiance or service. Service was adequate. I'd eat there again. It's next door to Decadence read more

I truly wanted this to be an authentic Japanese eatery, as the sign says. Instead it was a sad bowl of overly "sweet" tofu in a Ramen bowl. Noodles don't seem handmade either. Broth was lackluster definitely not an authentic low and slow tonkatsu broth. The decor inside was cute and hopeful. Service was fine. You do clean up after yourself. They do offer a small variety of Japanese candies and drinks. Don't be like me and go out of your way to find this one if you know anything about authentic Japanese. Sorry read more

I went in with small expectations since Macon isn't a hot spot for Asian food offerings...but given that, this place was a nice surprise. Service was very nice, food came out quickly and everything had solid flavors, the spicy broth was actually spicy. Only thing I would say I wasn't a fan of were the eggs. They weren't great representatives of what they are...I won't yuck someone else's yum...their version just wasn't for me. I'd eat here again. read more

We stopped by for lunch. There are plenty of parking spaces outside, inner deco is traditional Japanese. The service was quick and courteous. We ordered JAPANESE KARE MAZEMEN chicken with ramen and Tammi Pork Chashu with rice, etc. They were all very delicious, the pork Chashu was literally melted in mouse, I liked it, but chicken was on the dry side, while ramen was tasty. The portion was enough and very satisfying. read more

My request every time we visit Macon! Good food for a good price! Quick service too! Just not a fan of the curry noodles, but the slow-roasted meat is the best! Just ask about that. Can't recall the names of the food we ordered anymore. One bowl might be good for 2 pax, esp the rice bowls. Lots of parking since it's at the mall area. read more

Always hard to decide on dinner when traveling for work. Stumbled upon Tenmii & was so impressed by the reviews that I decided to give them a try. I was not disappointed. It's a small fast casual eatery with some booth seating and small tables. It was obvious that there were several regulars dining there based their banter with the staff. My server was very knowledge and attentive, checking in on me several times. My chicken kare was a very generous portion and very flavorful. If you're on the road looking for something different, Tenmii is a great option other than the usual chains or fast food. read more

Tenmii Japanese Eatery - Japanese Kare with chicken - Japanese Near Me - Macon, Georgia

Absolutely not. Yall Maconites must be desperate if you consider this place good Japanese. 1. Enough rice to take out a panda Yeah I get it. The base is rice but there was so much rice and it was bland and must be rice that was supposed to go into dog food. 2. The 4 slices of cucumber ain't it. There were so veggies i was embarrassed for then. 4 slices of cucumber and 6 slivers of what i believe to be daikon but maybe it was onion? Who knows. Im so serious too. 3. Southern mayo in a "Japanese slaw" is not a fusion a normal person would request. So the two tablespoons of slaw was drowned in this tasteless mayo. Oh no - it was NOT "yummy sauce" or whatever tragic southern-japanese fusion you trick yourself into liking. It was greasy gross white slime with no flavor 4. Risk the tofu but dont risk it on low quality meat. When you have no idea about the quality of meat/seafood, esp with Asian cuisine (hello - how do you think 'bathroom shrimp' term was created), the safest protein bet is tofu. Idc if youre not plant based - its just less risky with bacteria to order tofu. With all the other sub quality food, better try the tofu to be safe bc i would trust it here given the quality of the rice and veggies. Ive had Japanese bowls, Korean bowls, etc and this was the worst I've ever had in.my.life. read more

Food was fresh and clean. Tasted delicious! I would order again when im in town. The bomb bomb sauce was amazing and my fave part. I just wish the pickled cucumbers and veggies were more vinegary and less sweet since when all mixed together it becomes too sweet. read more

I stopped here on my way to SD and needed help understanding the ordering process. I didn't know you ordered at the front, so I stood there waiting for my table when the lady told me I ordered upfront. The menu was confusing, and I finally asked her to tell me her favorite dish. I am still determining what I got, but it was cold noodles. The noodles were very tasteless, but the chicken was GOOD! I can't see myself ever coming here again, even passing through. The lady who helped me was lovely! read more

Tenmii Japanese Eatery - Donburi tofu was amazing. It was the first, but certainly not the last, time I had it. - Japanese Near Me - Macon, Georgia

While we were visiting Macon for the Cherry Blossom festival, we wanted to eat something before going back to Atlanta. My husband wanted sushi but we were not familiar with the area. Thanks to Yelp, we found this place. They didn't have any sushi but they had several options. The young lady behind the counter asked us if this was our first. Chashu pork got my attention! My husband has it with rice and I had it with udon. As an appetizer, we had Sakura ebi, which was crispy and yummy. The place is clean and cute. The big green wall with a lucky cat made a nice accent. Food was delicious however this is not really authentic. (I am Japanese!) read more

Small Japanese eatery with lovely food. Go to the counter, order, food is brought to your table. We had goyza and spring rolls; daughter had a tofu bowl, I had the pork belly. Portions are generous, food is delicious; staff is friendly and helpful. They do take out. Will definitely be back read more

First time trying this place. The food was pretty good! I had the japanese curry with tofu. My partner had the cold soba noodle salad. The great things is you get to pick tofu as your protein. For someone that's vegetarian it's perfect! The service was great and the place was really cute. They sell japanese sweets and snacks. They also have the to go boxes right there so it's easy for anyone that wants to take their food to go. The portion is a lot! Be prepared! read more

Love this place! My parents come here often since it opened and they wanted me to try it while visiting! The atmosphere is so cute and light! Love the owners! So sweet! The chef came around asking how the food was which the food definitely is amazing! Service was fast! Got the chicken donburi bowl but subbed the chicken out for fried tofu! Also got a soy egg on the side! All of it was super good! Definitely a lot of food! Love that there's to go boxes laid out for ease. Highly recommend! read more

Special thanks to Stephanie at America's Best for recommending the Chicken Donburi Bowl. It was delicious. Every chance I got while driving home, I was trying to take a bite. The only thing is I felt that I needed more meat in the dish for the rice portion. I received friendly customer service, and I definitely recommend you give it a try. 4.5/5 Stars!!! read more

Tenmii Japanese Eatery - Chicken Donburi Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Macon, Georgia

This place was FANTASTIC! I walked in and was greeted by one of the nicest people ever. He went through the menu with me and explained the idea behind the restaurant. It felt like I was in a little restaurant in Japan. It is order at the counter and they bring it out to the table. The service was quick and pleasant. The chasu pork bowl was amazing with their gingeraki sauce! The only negative I had, was one piece of my pork belly was entirely fat. I know pork belly is really fatty, but that piece had no other contents other than fat. The soba noodles where fantastic as well. Overall, this is a fantastic place with a small Japanese eatery atmosphere. I highly recommend trying this place out. read more

I've eaten here roughly 15 times over the last few years. The food isn't necessarily "authentic" but it's always delicious. I generally order the food for delivery. I #1 recommendation would be the pork chashu. I'm generally not a huge fan of pork, but the way they prepare it makes it extremely tender. It has a strong savory and sweet taste. The sando is REALLY good as well, although the chicken is a bit difficult to tear so it can be messy. The fries with furikake seasoning are also really good. Sakura Ebi is a great appetizer. If you want something that's more mild, the chicken donburi is a good choice. They don't currently offer sushi but it would be great if they do in the future. read more

My daughter came in from Florida and wanted to try something different after a long day of shopping. The staff is on point and explained everything very clearly. The family all had different choices so we all sampled each other's. I am going back tomorrow to try something different. The bom bom sauce is amazing if you love spicy. This not your typical Japanese style food but very delicious. And very clean. read more

The Chicken Donburi Bowl is a solid dish. The grilled chicken pairs well with the Gingeryaki sauce, and the slaw adds a nice crunch. The red pickles and soy sauce reduction give it a good balance of flavors. At $12, it's a tasty, filling option. read more

This is a relatively new place in North Macon, but it's a great addition to the neighborhood! We have been here a couple of times and always leave full and satisfied. This is a small, quaint Japanese eatery. The owners and the servers have been helpful in talking about the menu and asking if we had any questions. If you haven't had Japanese food before, it's important for someone to explain the menu items. They have chopsticks available as well as regular cutlery. I like using the chopsticks to immerse myself in other cultures. The waitress was so nice and didn't laugh at me trying to use the chopsticks. Everything that we have eaten has been phenomenal! Don't be afraid to try the tofu! It's delicious even for us carnivores. We will definitely be back. read more

Been there a few times. I get tofu dishes, and it's always tasty. The fried tofu is great, but it gets very soggy very quickly both dining in an even worse on takeout. Next time I'll ask them to put the sauces on the side and see how it goes. I also wish they put a few more of the pickled veggies in the bowls. It's nowhere near enough for how large and filling the bowls are. read more

Tenmii Japanese Eatery - Ebi Furai! - Japanese Near Me - Macon, Georgia

It looks to be a simple start up for now, but a diverse addition to the order-at-counter dining scene in the close proximity. An clean, modern feel with ample lunch fare seating, exposed ceiling and nice lighting. A nice lady, perhaps the manager, rang us up and checked on us as well as sanitize dining area. When I asked for a spicy sauce, she brought a small sample of the Bomb Bomb. It had a great delicate flavor but NOT delicate heat, it is not for the faint, and we loved it! The items we did order were executed very well; fresh and not leaving us weighed down. The soba noodle "salad" could use a little extra love, like garnish, sauce, and/or even seaweed. It seems like it's an endless pit of perfectly cooked noodles, and then all of sudden they are gone! The breading and tenderness of the Chicken Kare, cook on rice, and the flavor of the sauce was outstanding. I will try out again, maybe with a little extra garnish on top? :) read more

Authentic Japanese cuisine that was phenomenal! Ordered the Japanese Kare and Sabo noodles and was highly impressed with the depth of flavors as well as the quantity. The hostess attended to us as soon as we walked in the restaurant, asked us if it was our first time there, as well as explained to us what many of the menu items were. The hostess and the chef/owner came out during the meal to ask us how our meal was and if they could assist us in any way. read more
