That is a very difficult question. Do sushi bars such as those inside grocery stores also count as Japanese restaurants? What about sushi places run by non-Japanese? Are those Japanese restaurants? Probably the closest possible answer would be "several hundred".
At Menu Pages there are 484 Japanse restaurants and 519 sushi restaurants listed (I don't know if those lists cross-over). There are also 65 listed simply as "Asian" and 78 as "Pan-Asian." I'm sure there are many others hiding in other categories such as barbecue, health food...
