Reviews
Best sushi restaurant in NJ and just as good as what we ate in Tokyo. Highly recommend the spicy scallop appetizer, absolutely amazing. And the sushi deluxe is excellent each time.
Great sushi, reasonable price. A bargain if you compare with NYC. The staff and service is near the top in my experience. They are genuinely friendly, not like most high end places where they act friendly because they must.
Best sushi place my wife and I have hit up in NJ thus far. We each had the sushi omakase which were reasonably priced at $70 per. We do not like blue-back skinned fish so asked them for white-back skinned fish for which they were very accommodating. Each piece was flavored just right and i loved the texture and the amount of rice. We each got a course of edemame with egg soup, sushi, small udon, and ice cream with mochi. Udon noodle was superb and you get a choice of green tea or red bean ice cream. Service was great and very attentive and helpful. You do need to make a reservation as we have tried in the past to do a walk in couple of times and failed. We were there sat night and saw few people attempt and fail walk-ins as well. This is good because they seem to care more about food quality and the experience over maximize turntime and number of people served. I was honestly impressed with the spot.
Went here for omakase, was phenomenal. Fish was fresh, rice was great, staff was attentive and friendly. Price was great -- 55 for 10 pieces with complimentary udon and dessert. Would definitely recommend, especially as an option outside of NYC.
This is the first time I visit this Japanese restaurant. Very impressive! The fish quality is top notch! The taste is genuine "Nihon Aji". All my family did enjoy a wonderful meal at this special period. By the way, the staffs are very friendly and the service is good too.
$64 for this ! I ordered 2 simple rolls , spicy salmon and avocado roll . Ok i get it uni is the most expensive, but tiny rolls of basic yellowtail is $11 , I understand its not the cheapest place to begin with , but it has $$ which in comparison to Sushi Cruise or Picnic , has a big difference in sizes . I could barely see my fish in the rolls . Secondly only one piece of sushi for $7 , where all other places have 2 pieces of sushi in a set. Food was good, but disappointed in portions and definitely not worth 64 bucks for one person
Omakase, chirashi, Tuna lover, salmon lover rolls and 1 uni sushi. Best Uni I have had, sweet with no fishy smell, super rich. Quality and service is impeccable. Bathroom is very clean. Got free soup for everyone at the table, nice free warm soybean appetizer. Played chopsticks peanut picking contest with kids while waiting for my order. The free ice cream ball was a nice surprise. Red bean and green tea flavor are the best ever. Sweet salty red bean ice cream and bitter refreshing macha ice cream are perfect sized to bring smile to my face when I received the check.
What a pleasant surprise. The sushi was great, comes at a reasonable price. I would go back to try their omakase. Need to make a reservation to ensure a spot. My friend called two days earlier and while we were dining we saw a couple being turned away because the tables were all booked. Speaks to the level of popularity of the restaurant.
