Beautiful area of Epcot World Showcase area. The shop has a lot of great Japanese products and the toys, ramen serving sets, snacks, and fashion wares and choices are abundant and various. There is a kawaii subculture museum that showcases this art genre. No ride in this pavilion but the shopping makes up for the lack of a themed ride.

As always, my high expectations were met! Loved the decor and fragrances of the store. Really brings the Japanese culture to America in a great way!

The EPCOT Japan Pavilion is one of our favorites. There are lots of great places to choose from for food/snacks. The shop is huge and has a great selection. The gardens and water features are beautiful. The Cast Members have always been very helpful and friendly.

The Japanese hibachi restaurant is fantastic! Best volcano roll ever!

Wonderful views! Great plants! Love the outside here!

Sections of each country is the best part of Epcot. Makes it unique. Great place to walk around the explore different countries and get a feel of it.

Hardly nothing was open. Money was wasted in Disney, garbage food was served. Totally dissapointed compared to the time before.

Beautiful representation of a truly beautiful place. It made me miss my years in Japan. The food is very good and there are a lot of great souvenirs here.

Landmark reviewLocated in the back of Epcot in the international pavilion is this slice of Japan. When you walk into this section of the park, you feel like you are transported to Japan with the architecture and bonsai trees. I did not get a chance to try the restaurants, but based on the other reviews they appear to be tasty. They do have a large store that has a lot of different products from Japan and you can also purchase freshwater pearls straight from the oyster. Finally, there is also an area that shows off Japanese culture with an excellent explanation about Harajuku. I also missed the drum show.

A fun pavilion to walk through. Lots of interesting stuff in the store and the staff is very friendly. The small eatery sells udon noodles and sushi rolls.

I love the Japanese pavilion! Always a must see every time I’m at Epcot! The food is amazing and they really capture the look and feel of authentic Japanese culture. I always find time so center my chi when I’m there.

This store it is perfect... make you feel like into a Japan market. Find sake... chocolates green tea... Japanese stuff and a lot of toys... I Really appreciate this culture...

Me and my mom tried to get it but it was closed the day that we were there and now we can’t do what my mom really wanted to do

A wonderful place to shop and eat. We enjoy looking at the solar powered toys, and the assortment of food packaged food items.

My favorite park!! This is my favorite pavillion. It has yummy restaurants, an awesome store, and drumming shows!!

Epcot Japan pavilion is a truly amazing place. There are candy and toy shops that house some of the most amazing anime figurines and tasty Japanese imported treats.

The exhibition truly gave a excellent introduction to Japan. The drums were very much enjoyed by everyone. I was most pleased that the performers were willing to answer questions. They were not just beautiful performers but well versed in their culture. It is a wonderful experience to be able to enjoy different customs and cultures but having a good conversation with the people is a hundred times better. I must say that this was my favourite world exhibit at Epcot

One of the best locations in the world showcase. Good restaurants and great amenities.

The Japan pavilion is one of my favorites at Epcot. Its absolutely beautiful at night and has awesome food.

Great theming very well done

A most wonderful experience for an evening visit. The dining experience here was tremendous. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful. We have shopped here many times as well and the prices are reasonable with a good variety of authentic wares.

Great place to watch the nightly fireworks!Try to catch the Matsuriza - the Japanese Taiko drum show. Nothing quite like it as the thunderous drums beats are amazing!!

Love it.

Every trip I make I stop In for the spicy sushi. Great atmosphere and food is always excellent. Great quick-serv spot. Plenty of seating outdoors inside sometimes does get a little cramped however plenty of shade and beautiful scenery definitely makes up for it.

Was the food expensive?Yes, but so is everything at Disney. Tasted good though!

The best place to just chill in world showcase. They have quiet tables surrounded by bamboo back behind the pagoda.

The japanese was one of the best in Epcot

Make your way here when at Epcot. You wont regret it.

How cool is Japan in Epcot??? So great

This is our favorite place to eat, its great food and entertaining.

Love this pavilion but I wish there was more to look at from the outside. Mitsukoshi is a great store with lots of interesting stuff and the cast members are super friendly. The food at the restaurants is really good also.

Ice cold frozen beer. Great toy store.

This pavilion has the best shopping!

Japan is a great Epcot pavilion. First of all, dont miss strolling through the beautiful and tranquil gardens. And enjoy the architectural details of the area. There are many great places to eat here. The tepanyaki restaurant is always a favorite as well as sushi. Snacks, sake and shaved iced are all available at the kiosks as well. The shopping is really great here. There is a cultural exhibit as well so take the time to explore all areas of this pavillion. And dont miss the Japanese drum show.

Very beautiful, enjoy every inch of it, take your time

Super cool area of Epcot. They have a lot of cool exhibits and items for sale.

Awesome performance! Worth checking out and watching while in Epcot! We highly recommend this show!

Got to see some Dances and listen to live music. Is just beautiful. The food was great also!

This is a great capture of the essence of the Japanese culture. From the smells to the sights and sounds and the shopping and the food. The performance with the drums is a great cultural wonder and its so cool how Epcot allows things like this to be brought to the US for other people to enjoy

Really beautiful with lots to see and buy, but... was really disappointed when I watched the pearl store opening the oyster to find a pearl (that is guaranteed) do a slight of hand (and not very well) and swipe a larger white pearl that was in that oyster for a little dark one. Pretty underhanded and shady and sad.

Wow, the snack and candy store is amazing!!!

Authentic Hibachi cooking, nice photo ops, & Japanese merchandise in store from Mikimoto Pearls to rice candy can be found in this store.

I really like it shopping here

Great food great atmosphere everything authentic

I love everything about Disney

All the items that are sold in this store are not only Very over priced but the quality is Poor to say the least. Check out their purses if you dont believe me; made of cheap cloth but priced for leather. I have shop at this store enough to know not to anymore. They must think the average guess are too stupid to notice but some day it will happen. Please save your money and buy only Disney products because Disney guarantees their products and helps you with returns. This store does not.

All things in Epcot are fun but especially the Japan Pavilion

Fantastic food, gift shops are full of all kinds of wonderful Asian/Japanese themed goods. Be sure to try and time your visit to be able to catch the Matsuriza Drummers show. They also offer a huge variety of Japanese sweets/candy that can be very interesting :)

Beautiful Koi Pond with Waterfalls, Great Displays and Restaurants!!

The drummers at the front were amazing!

One of our family favorite pavilions where we can get our Japanese food including sushi and more.

By far my favorite pavillion. Loads of great art, masks, statues and stands full of neat snacks from Japan. I bought some chopsticks. I shouldve tried to buy an oyster to see if there was a pearl inside. Get yourself back here and seriously take your time. Take pictures of everything. We got a pretty aweseme shot of Spaceship Earth through the Torii by the lake.

I love it here because the good food and the ANIME! But mostly the shiba inu plushies

Pick a pearl is a very fun experience! The stores have Nintendo merchandise which is always a thumbs up with me. This is a fun pavilion. with lots to see and do.

A nice, reflective part of Epcot. Get your Zen here. There is a tranquil pond and garden, some nice restaurants and the best gift shop this side of Tokyo.

Japan pavilion is one of my favorite pavilions at Epcot The Japan pavilion contains items from Japan items from anime and good food I recommend this pavilion to anybody

Stunning

Visually stunning themed buildings, great food, and wonderful shopping options. A favorite stop at Epcot for my family. Check out the Kawaii exhibit while you are here.

Japan was fun, the restaurant was just average. While the sushi was good the menu was so lowest common denominator in terms of variety there was nothing special.

Really cool place to shop and also good but small snacks from the vendors at the front of the pavilion.

Today we were here in time to hear the 3 lady drummers, they are really good. The food here is delish.

Good selection of your standard Japanese kitsch and memorabilia. The staff works exceptionally hard and they do a good upbeat job, with only the slightest whiff of Smile Mask Syndrome. The pi K a pearl counter puts on a very nice show.

I love this pavilion. It is so much fun and the atmosphere is great. The food and sake are excellent. A must sop for sure.

Love Japan pavilion. Great restaurant upstairs, great quick service and you can now eat on in the gardens, and great store with a lot of products from Japan that make you travel. The cast members are very dedicated and the new exposition is nice.

Really cool pavilion that captures the culture and history of Japan.

One of my favorite places to visit in Epcot. The kids love it, and on a real hot day the frozen beer is a real treat.

Japan as a country is so amazingly beautiful, so it doesnt surprise me that this representation of it is well done. We enjoyed walking around and looking at the buildings and decor. The merchandise shop is filled with unique items. We spent so much time in there looking and purchasing things that Ive never seen at other shops. Definite must see.

This is a really cool place

A most stop on the tour around the world!

One of our favorites of the World Showcase at Epcot. Very beautiful. And like most of the other countries represented you must see it at night also.

Our family loves visiting Japan in Epcot!! Great place to sit and relax with amazing views and quite a few shops to browse through. Our kids love to buy the unique Japanese soda drinks and snacks. So much fun!!

We are Disney Annual Pass Holders but the store in Japan said they did not give a discount on purchases to annual pass holders (purchasing a stuffed animal for my daughter). That is far from our understanding and our experience at the other countries in Epcot. Very disappointed.

The people that work there are awesome

With its subdued cultural nature, the Japan Pavilion is a breath of fresh air compared to most of the World Showcase. The staff is friendly and refined, and the main restaurant serves premium Japanese inspired cuisine (at premium prices). Throughout the year the pavilion celebrates different Japanese holidays and events with ceremonies and entertainment acts.

The Japan Pavilion is beautifully-designed, with some good food and good shopping. One of my favorites among the pavilions at Epcot.

Love the shopping here. Lots of Pokémon and other things Japan. My kids could spend hours here.

Great food options, intriguing shopping, and stunning architecture. This is one of the most impressive countries represented at Epcot.

Experience other cultures while still being in your native language.

Can we also get that Mount Fuji coaster just cuz

Easily my favorite place in Epcot. Tons of awesome Japanese products and experiences to be had.

A celebration of parts of Japanese culture. The Japan Pavillion is always interesting. Be sure to check out the drum performances. And if youre a fan be SURE to see the kawaii (cute) culture exhibit in the back - its amazing.

The showcase is one of the best in Epcot. I hope China catches up. I also wish there was an Indian pavilion.

Its EPCOT, whats left to say....!!!

This is one of my favorite pavilions in Epcot. The restaurant makes really good food and the store is pretty interesting. Inside the Bijutsu-kan Gallery, they have a kawaii exhibition.

Its a solid 4-star. Overall, it is similar to other lands. However, the mini mart they have is really nice. If you are looking for something from Japan for our small items, this is a good place go.

My favorite place to stop at Epcot! A variety of anime, cool and tasty food, and many gifts from Japan itself! Im not a big fan of sushi, but the sushi here is the best place for sushi ever!

This was most definitely my favorite location of all the countries in epcot. I had a Japanese beer at this location. Cant remember the brand, but was refreshing

Nice shops, good saki and candy. The food is pretty good too

Love everything about Disney

Beautiful

Liked the authentic look and atmosphere... The kids loved the souvenir shop.

The Japan Pavilion is gorgeous and full of real details of Japan. If you only get to spend time at one of the World Showcase Pavilions, Japan is my pick.

Beautiful setting with bonsais, drums and culture.

Super fun

Love traveling the world around Disney. Gives you a taste of the different cultures around the world

We had great moments my daughters and I at the Japan pavilion.

Love their store and art exposition

Great showcase. One of my favorites. Great shopping, and food.

Great country in Disney. Well done and interesting.

Try the frozen Kirin at the hut in the middle of the Japanese village. Frozen foam all the way to the bottom. Great on a hot day.
