“This place is so good! I always finish what I order and that does not happen at other places. The sushi is fresh and they have an interesting selection. I’ve only had pleasant interactions with staff! Hardly any waiting for the food too! Love it!“

“Very good food and service“

“Great selection of products, very nice staff.“

“Every sushi was delicious! The flavor was unique and interesting. You can feel the texture contrast of each sushi, and the various flavors of each sushi are singing harmoniously in your mouth! The dessert was amazing and the sake pairing was good as well!“

“Genuinely don’t understand why this place is empty save for my family when we come in - The waiters are attentive, and the food and milk tea are both spectacular. They offer a lot more options than most sushi restaurants as well! Seems like a really lovely family business and I would definitely recommend.“

“this place is such a cute, amazing spot hidden behind a parking lot. Absolutely loved the food, came back for more. This will be my sushi/poke bowl take out spot from now on. The gentleman in the register is so sweet and made great suggestions. Such a nice atmosphere. Food taste so fresh, and yummy.
They don’t disappoint!!“

“Fresh and tasty! Great meal option.“

“This well-known gem is worth the wait and will give one an experience rarely found in Greater Boston.
The dishes are unique, tasty, and well prepared. You need to have your entire present to be seated and they do not take reservations as there are few tables. The larger group I saw about six people. It's not a large place and has a very minimalist feel with the decor.“

“We got 2 large platters (one hot and one raw) for 4 adults. WoW. That was a lot of food. The presentation was beautiful, one on a boat and the other on a bridge. The pieces were huge and very fresh. A lot of different combinations to try. The waitstaff was so nice. Highly recommend!“

“Had a wonderful dinner at Moontown in Andover! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the service was friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. We had a great evening and will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend giving it a try, It was really a hidden gem!“

“This is my favorite sushi place, bar none. The food is a great value given the quantity and quality, and the customer service couldn't be better. They recognize me when I come to pick up lunch despite only going about once a month, and the staff is always so friendly. I recommend it to all my coworkers, and always look forward to my lunches from there.“

“Excellent Poke bowls. Lots of options to choose from including diced mango and avocado is included! Great addition to the Burlington food scene.“

“We went the other night for the first time. They were so kind and professional about my egg allergy and prepared my lobster and steak hibachi in the kitchen. We will be back regularly!“

“Food was fantastic and very authentic! Brings back warm memories of my time in Japan many years ago. We are so lucky to have such a dining option so close. I will most definitely be back!! P.S. Try the octopus balls, they're fantastic!!!“

“This has been my favorite Chinese restaurant for a decade. It’s convenient, fast, and immaculate. The sushi is made right in front of you and has always been fresh and delicious. I’ve gone there on date night and I’ve had office parties there and it’s always been awesome. As good as the food is, the staff is better. Especially Tiffany who does everything here including cooking, taking orders, bartending, and making everyone feel like their family. The first time I went there she waited on our table. 6 months later I came back for the second time. She it only remembered my name, she also remembered every dish we’d ordered the first time. I wish I could give Tiffany and Sei Bar 10 stars.“

“The best sushi restaurant in the North Shore, bar none! The owners are so friendly and inviting! Food is as fresh as it gets. Please support small businesses like this one! They truly deserve all the praise for their amazing service and high quality sushi“

“Take out food ready at the expected time. Everything was wonderful! Fresh ingredients, well presented, followed our allergy restrictions exactly as requested, and really friendly staff who remember us from pre-pandemic days. Highly recommend.“

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“the downside is the delivery charges cost $7 so I can't order regularly too expensive“

“The best takeout restaurant for sushi and Chinese food in Melrose!“

“amazing food one of the best meals I've had. 😋 😍 5 stars“

“got takeout, went home and egg foo yong had no gravy on it. Called them up and told them about that. Not even two minutes later the woman called back and stated that's the way they make it! I have had this numerous times and there was always brown gravy on it and in container! She was very argumentative. For that reason , we will not be going back! DO BETTER!“

“Great food for a great price. Everything from the sushi to the ramen was spot on. Staff were super friendly we will definitely be coming back.“

“the food is always amazing they'll cook just about whatever you ask for at Costco but you really get what you pay for here. I've taken a handful of people here who would probably say the same thing! not to mention the staff is super friendly and if they're not too busy they'll hold a conversation with you.“

“Do not expect something fancy here but delicious sushi and reasonable price. Clean. Attentive staff, they know exactly what they are doing. All you can eat deal was great. No parking lot but easy to find a street parking. Would definitely return when in town.

Update review

The previous review was in 2021. And I have still been Nijiya’s regular…. until recently. Sushi buffet is very challenging concept between quality and the price. If the quality meets the price, then customers repeat visits. I appreciate Nijiya every visit and do not intend to leave a bad review. However, upon recent visits, the fishes were cut as if they were ready to throw into a pond to feed other fishes. They were plated carelessly. I lost my appetite before even touching the food. I visit less often and it’s been five months since.“

“As always an excellent meal! Mike makes great sushi, and kitchen chefs do great things as well. Its one of our regular places.“

“As someone who has had the privilege of dining at some extraordinary Chinese and Japanese restaurants around the world, from Hong Kong to Tokyo to Manhattan, I can say without hesitation that this is the finest Chinese and Japanese food in all of Massachusetts. The ingredients are exceptional, the preparation is thoughtful, and the consistency is remarkable. Restaurants like this are rare.

We even brought our chef Tracy here one evening. She’s worked in several Michelin-starred kitchens and spent years cooking in private estates and luxury hotels. And she was completely blown away. She kept commenting on the quality of the fish and the balance of the dishes, which says a lot coming from someone who cooks professionally at that level.“

“service is great food is amazing“

“Best Chinese food ever!! drinks awesome...love the Lychee Martini...Best sushi, General Gau chicken, pork fried rice etc etc...always top notch food. it was very busy and service can be challenging but staff always smiling and tremendous efforts made. Thank you to all that made a wonderful meal“

“This was my first time here and it was so good! My family and i were visiting from New jersey and would recommend 100% since it’s an all you can eat i would come on an empty stomach :) i forgot to take pictures but Try the Godzilla Roll and Boston Bruins Role 10/10“

“Other than the cafeteria being full on weekends, this place is my favorite. They cook very well and ingredients are fresh. I order the bento and the level of detail is phenomenal. this is the tastiest food I've ever had and will always be coming here as long as I'm alive. The prices keep going up so I hope they calm down. The best time to come is during the week.“

“We were fortunate to find John (Hibachi Cook) recently after learning his previous establishment closed. We've gone to him for over 26 yrs - 3 generations in my family. He is the best Hibachi cook, we've ever had; my daughter and granddaughter will ONLY have his cooking and wonderful personality. So glad he landed at Tulip - look forward to many more visits with him :) Finding it very strange website will now allow pictures/media to be uploaded :( after multiple attempts. Very unusual“

“The food at Oye Restaurant Bar & Grill was good for the most part, but could gave been more flavorful. We did enjoy the GF calamari and the sushi boat. The service was friendly and welcoming.
The only downside was the ambience. The lighting was much too dim for our liking, making the space feel a bit too gloomy, and the restaurant was quite empty when we visited, which affected the overall atmosphere. With brighter lighting and a livelier vibe, the dining experience would be even better.

We did appreciate that they have a separate gluten-free menu!“

“Today, my wife told me that she wanted to have some good Chinese food, so we decided to explore a good Chinese restaurant. We came across a restaurant called The Dumpling Garden in Saugus, and we went there to try their food. It was the best experience we’ve had so far. I fully recommend it, and the staff there is very friendly. You should definitely go and try it!“

“Thx for the best restaurant I from Canada to come eat with my family coz it’s was my second time I like the service and it’s not expensive compared with Canada’s food we’ll go back soon once we come to Boston again many Thx xiexie ni🥰“
