Reviews for JMK Nippon in Rockford, IL
Amazing experience!! I thought the flavor of the food was actually better than Shogun. Our waiter was super nice and the chef... was also fantastic. We will be back!! Read more
We are on the grill side. The chef suggested some alterations to my dish after I said that I did enjoy spicy food. That hot... onion sauce was delicious! The chef was also full of humor and very good at his job. The waitstaff seemed knowledgeable andfriendly. The overall atmosphere was great. Read more

Nice place. Prefer the cafe side , more mellow. Hibachi side has strong good smell from the table side cooking. . Service and... food was decent. Nice drinks. Like the sushi rolls more than the sashimi. Have a large menu selection. Read more
JMK has always been one of our families favorite places to eat. Terrific atmosphere, delicious libations, mouth watering food,... and entertainment to boot. My wife and I always order the dinner for 2 choosing shrimp as opposed to scallops, the filet forour steak, and chicken. The food is always prepared perfectly and the chef never disappoints with both his preparation andoverall presentation of the food made. The servers are always quick with drinks and the Sushi/appetizers being brought out tothe table. We try to come here atleast once every few months and always leave full and satisfied. Read more
We had a reservation for a group of 9 people and we were in and out in just about 3 hours! Normally at most I could see 2 hours... but they looked busy and sort staffed on cooks so we waited a long time to get anything and we were waiting at least 20 minutesto sit down with all 9 of us there on time. The food was not flavored well (I had lobster, sesame chicken, and fried rice) and Iwas very disappointed in paying $60 on myself for a meal that was nothing special and had super slow service. They were out ofthe cat mug too which was another disappointment. I would not go back or recommend this restaurant. Read more
Great sake and sushi! Have been here before many years ago for hibachi. It was good but tonight we were just craving sushi. We... sat at a seat next to the bar and the sushi was phenomenal. We ordered a la crate nigiri. Yellow tail and white tuna on rice.Both were fresh and delicious! Then we finished with the scorpion roll which was out of this world. We thought we going to getmore sushi when we walked in but we?re completely full after all of that food. Definitely recommend checking this place out. Ithas been here as long as I can remember.

It's gone downhill. The entryway needs updating and cleaning. Food was good. Hibachi chef was great and funny. Waitress... repeatedly ignored our empty glasses and forgot to put in some of our orders so they didn't come out at the same time as othersin our party. We had a large party. There should have been two waitresses honestly but ????????. We won't be returning as Zen inBeloit is so much better, cleaner and more updated. My rolls fell apart. I find this worth mentioning as I usually never have anissue with this anywhere else. Maybe a new sushi chef in training? I had to use a fork! ???? I've never had to use a fork... Iwas really disappointed, especially for the price! Not acceptable. Read more
