10 Best Japanese Restaurants in Lawrenceville

“Very clean and simple layout featuring a sushi bar as you walk in and both indoor and outdoor seating.

We were greeted quickly and shown to a table immediately.

Our complete order ended up being: 2 waters, 1 cold green tea, 5 rolls, 1 Chef's Nigiri, and 2 Green Tea Ice Creams.

We were presented with miso soup to begin, along with kimchi, shredded daikon, marinated broccoli, and pickled onion.

Loved that they gave us soup spoons and chopsticks without the usual fork, knife, and spoon.

For the rolls we ordered Garlic Crunch Roll, Hide and Seek Roll, Mango Tango Roll, Volcano Roll, and Golden Tiger Roll.

Nigiri was fresh and their rice was good.

I don't know where/who they get the green tea ice cream from, but it was the perfect ending for the meal.

Have easily spent the same amount at flashier, popular sushi places and gotten lower quality, so this was a solid homerun in our book.“

“Came here to eat dinner for a friend’s birthday and everything was delicious, the Yama Roll and American Dream are amazing and I will gladly get it again!

Things I loved:
Ramen was flavorful, Sushi was immaculate, Thai tea was the perfect addition to the meal

I will say, if you are not a fan of cucumber, the Naruto roll is not for you. Otherwise, everything was great especially for the price!

I will be coming back! (They also had Naruto playing on the TV)“

“Very pleasant & good vibes“

“The establishment is much larger on the inside than it appears from the street. It is absolutely beautiful inside. The beef tataki here is amazing. Easily the best I’ve had. The fish on the nigiri rice i ordered was heated due to the rice being so warm. That was off-putting as that is a dish traditionally served cold. Not pleasant. The shoyu chicken ramen was about what you’d expect for a $12 soup. My server made sure I had everything I needed and constantly checked on me. All in all it was a good experience. I’ll be back.“

“Ordered my food at 10:20. Was told it would be 15-20 mins. Arrived at the restaurant 20 mins later and was told an additional 15 mins was needed. Waited almost 35 mins
to get my food. Although they were unable to complete my order(as well as others waiting) they continued to accept orders over the phone. I will admit my sushi was very good.“

“The food is amazing. I tried the Snow Mountain Roll tonight and wow!! Definitely give them a try if you haven’t already“

“Great place! Dan the Sushi man makes great sushi for the price. Consistent and dependable. I come here with the family and have had the hibachi as well, it’s great also but our favorite is the sushi“

“I'm not from here, so I wanted some good lemon pepper wings wet. When I arrived I asked the man at the counter if the lemon pepper would be wet. He said yes, but when he showed them I really didn't see a lot of sauce. When I say the wings here are delicious, it's not an understatement. The strawberry cheesecake is good too, and I will be returning.“

“Me and my family have been coming to this Shogun location for a couple of years now and we are always treated with nothing but kindness from all staff and members. Momo is an amazing waitress who never fails to make us feel at home. She is always making sure we have everything we need to make our dinner delightful from remembering our orders from previous visits to connecting with us on a personal level. The cooks do an exceptional job at making the food perfect to your needs, all whilst putting on a lovely show for all families to enjoy. Overall, Shogun has an amazing atmosphere and is a wonderful place to have a dinner with family or friends.“

“Really enjoyed the food and service.“
