Pheonix Research Publishes 2026 “Global Japanese Restaurant Market Outlook – Press Release”

Global Japanese Restaurant Market to Reach ~USD 25.50 Billion by 2033, Driven by Premium Omakase Expansion and Delivery-LLed Growth

February 2026 | Phoenix Research

The Global Japanese Restaurant Market is forecast to expand from USD 19.61 billion in 2025 to approximately USD 25.50 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of ~3.99% during the forecast period (2026–2033), according to the latest analysis by Phoenix Research.

Japanese cuisine has evolved from a niche ethnic segment into a mainstream global foodservice category. Full-service sushi restaurants, ramen specialty outlets, premium omakase counters, izakaya concepts, and delivery-first cloud kitchens are collectively shaping a diversified and resilient global dining ecosystem.

Asia-Pacific currently holds the largest market share and is also expected to register the fastest growth, supported by strong domestic consumption in Japan, rapid urbanization in China and Southeast Asia, and tourism recovery across key metropolitan hubs.

“The global Japanese restaurant ecosystem is entering a balanced growth phase defined by premium experiential dining and scalable delivery-first models. Sustainable seafood sourcing, AI-based demand forecasting, and multi-format international expansion will determine competitive leadership in the post-2025 environment.”
