37 Best Sushi Bars near Chatham

“This is a brand new, recently opened restaurant and wow did they deliver for first impressions. Food was absolutely incredible. The sushi was fresh and made quickly. I had the volcano roll and the Naruto rainbow row, it was beautiful and delicious. Very good quality cuts and tasted fresh Really impressed by their milk tea as well. We got the original and Taro milk tea and it was fantastic. Staff was also very friendly and helpful in deciding what to order. Would definitely be coming back the next time I’m in town!“

“Great little story: more than 20 years ago I found myself inexplicably single (lol) and walked into Mitsuba (Chatham) just as it opened — I might have been their second-ever customer. I scanned the menu and wanted a lot of sushi, but not the Full “Love Boat.” I told them, “I’m not in love, and that’s too much food. Can I get something about half the size and half the price?”
They brought out what you see in the photo. I was satisfied and joked, “When I come back, can we call this the Lonely Boat?” And that’s how it stuck. It isn’t on the menu, but if you walk in and ask for “Mr. Howard’s Lonely Boat,” they’ll know what you mean.
I even suggested making it a Monday special — “Lonely Boat Mondays.” Imagine single folks showing up for a Lonely Boat, striking up conversations, and maybe two lonely diners eventually turning their Lonely Boats into Love Boats. Plus lets face it folks, hands down.....the best Sushi in NJ without any question!“

“good service and good food“

“Great service , good attention and fresh food“

“The wait staff was very polite and patient. They gave us ample time to preview the menu. After we placed our orders, the food came to us pretty fast. Food was very good. And the presentation of the dishes were very pretty. I ordered the maki combo it was very good. Sorry, I ate some and I realized I forgot to take a Pic. So part of it was eaten. I would recommend trying out this place. It was a great experience. I want to go back again soon. They also offer take out. But I think sitting at the restaurant, the ambiance is real nice and having the meal there was a great experience.“

“Great food. Often busy at nights - especially Friday and Saturday and it can get loud. Never had to wait for a seat for lunch. Service is great but can be slow when crowded. One of the few restaurants that serves red miso soup which I prefer over the more bland white miso you usually get at Japanese restaurants.“

“Ordered for the first time since learning they moved & opened their doors in Morris Plains! They were our FAVORITE restaurant in Cedar Knolls! I’m SO happy to have them ‘back’ (a bit further of a drive, but so worth it!!) Everything was just as delicious as I remembered it being! We’ll be back SOON!!“

“Fresh raw oysters. Sashimi was delicious. Nice portion“

“Very nice place, lots of choices and fresh food. Now they are open for dining in, will be coming back“

“owner is so nice!!! they make their own soy sauce. wasn't salty“

“I’ve been going to Rahway Sushi for years and can say the food is great. Check out the menu. Lots of great options.“

“Great service and food. The tuna tartar is amazing and is the best miso soup ever.“

“Cute place with convenient parking in the back — we had no trouble finding a spot even on a Friday night. The sushi rolls were large and packed with fish. We were pleasantly surprised with free strawberry mochi and two pieces of tempura at the end. Great experience overall!“

“Cant recall how many times we’ve been here but the service is consistently top notch. Our server today Simon is probably the most cheerful staff here. Polite and attentive. Food is always fresh and delicious. Will never get tired of this place, will definitely come back.“

“WOW!! My boyfriend and I went out to eat here and the sushi was incredible. The staff were so nice and pleasant. We ordered the peppered tuna appetizer and I got the Mizu sushi roll and the aki roll. They were 10/10 and hit the spot. My new favorite sushi place! I also appreciate they were open late as I was craving sushi.“

“Nothing beats enjoying the sushi at the restaurant but due to the covid pandemic and with an abundance of caution for safety the restaurant is takeout only. Regardless, Mr. Bin's is our "go-to" sushi place. We routinely travel from Union to Cranford because it's that good! The freshness is evident with every bite. The presentation of the sushi is perfect. I miss hanging with Mr. Bin at the restaurant and looking forward that once again. Especially his "special" selections that he surprises me with.“

“The food is top notch. From the soup to the sushi. Even the ice cream is delicious. What really bothers me though is the service. There is a 90 minute time limit which I get but when you are rushed to get out by an hour that’s not right. Also when you’re hounding tables waiting to literally take a plate because you have nothing else to do that’s a problem. Finally when you’re coming up to tables and asking them for platters back because you don’t have enough supposedly that’s not good either. Last night I was hounded constantly. Twice I had people tell me to move my sushi to my paper plate because they needed the platter. May I suggest buying more platters. Love the food and yes I know I’ll be back but the service was ridiculous in your face. Don’t come here for date night because they don’t leave you alone“

“We had a blast here. Perfect for high schoolers who wanna have a fun time with great food. I’m vegetarian and i had plenty of options and they were all splendid. I would definitely come here over and over again. Servers were extremely friendly.“

“Love this place, been there 3 times. The lady server is always very accommodating and sweet to my son and us. Food is always tasty and fresh. My son loves the food here. Is a small place but thats the charm.

Parking: There plenty of parking around“

“Always love Go Sushi, it's our Sushi Place of choice, no matter if you eat in or take out the food / service is outta this world!!!!

We ate in today, it was our daughter's birthday yesterday and as always we were gifted an Ice-Cream Tempura with a candle on top as a Birthday Dessert - Thanx Again for a Yummy Dinner 😃“

“Friendly staff and quick service. Allowed us to bring our own beverages. Definitely will be back.“

“Good spot for sushi! I ordered takeout and loved the spicy California roll—finally, a sushi spot that gets the spice just right! The atmosphere looked inviting, with live music playing and a cozy dine-in setup. I’ll definitely be stopping by again!

The best part is you get a free appetizer with any order of $25 and up.“

“I've been coming here on-off for about 3 years, I think? It's a lovely, quiet place. I'm rarely in the mood for sushi but from my occasional hunt, the bulgogi roll lured me here. And the simple atmosphere & excellent service made me come back again, and again. Although I don't have many pictures of my dining or pickups from here, I highly recommend the bulgogi or pink salmon special (seared roll)

Pictured below is my recent order of tuna tataki (seared tuna) and a simple rice-out veggie roll, with green tea 🍵“

“As somebody with a severe sesame allergy, eating Asian cuisine has always been a challenge for me. I have always had to be extremely careful, usually avoiding Asian cuisine altogether to avoid the risk of cross-contamination with sesame seeds or oil. However, I work nearby and one day I decided to call QQ Asian to see if it were a possibility to order something that didn't have sesame, and it turns out that they were able to accommodate me more than I thought! They mainly use a different oil (vegetable, I believe) for most of the food, and when I call to place an order, I always remind them of my allergy and they do a great job of making sure my food doesn't come in contact with ANY sesame. I appreciate the staff at QQ Asian for not only making consistently great food, but for also taking into consideration an allergy that had previously made it feel impossible to explore Asian cuisine. (Allergies vary in severity, so if you have allergies, only try if you feel comfortable.)

Also, the place is very clean and well-maintained. I will definitely continue taking out from here!“

“From what I shared last time (food being so delicious) very disspointed now. Had to throw everything in the garbage today - sushi rolls (spicy tuna and spicy salmon) did not smell fresh at all, looked very different. Ramen soup was disguisting. We used to love this place, truly loved. But last couple of times food seems not the same. Also Doordash took two hours to deliver instead of promised 45 min- have a feeling they were looking for fresh fish and could not find it - so result was obvious. If a manager reads this message would be nice to talk. Otherwise goodbye Blufin“

“Excellent Ramen. Great service. Great little spot. The kimchi they bring you is divine, spicey, and delicious. The Spicey Ramen I had was amazing, even down to delicious bean sprouts. The spring rolls were on point. By far the best shrimp tempora I've had. Simple, light, crisp and delicious. Oh and the house sake was fantastic. If you're in the area, check this place out. It will not disappoint!“

“I have been going for years simply because you get consistently excellent portions for the price. That is still the truth today.“

“The sushi was absolutely delicious, and the presentation of the food was beautiful. The rolls were also really good, with so many varieties to choose from. I also really enjoyed the udon and the salmon bento set—they were full of flavor. The atmosphere inside is warm and inviting, and the wall art is fun and memorable. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming. It’s the kind of place I find myself coming back to often.“

“12/23/25: We went here again and found a nice crowd of people have also discovered this hidden gem for fresh sushi and oriental food at a good price. Our new standby for awesomely made sushi! We both had special rolls, of which they make many. All were so good! (See pictures below). I find the prices to be very good and the quality fresh, and well made. And the service is so friendly, too. You really need to try it. This is a BYOB restaurant so bring your bottle of wine or beer and enjoy your dining experience.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
For all you sushi lovers out there.....this is a great one! I'm from out if town visiting and we went here. We did make a reservation but it's really not necessary. The lady that greeted us and waited on us was super nice and friendly! Just the right amount of attention and she alone made for a great visit from that aspect.
The Food: my son had the sashimi plater with a side of avocado. He said it was all fresh and a good amount. I had various rolls after I started with the spicy seaweed salad. It had just the correct amount of aoli spicy sauce.... not too spicy... & just right. And, soooo fresh, plus it was a good sized salad.
I had some eel nagiri and tamago nagiri along with a couple of rolls. I added a delicious California roll, too.
Prices: super right! Not expensive, at all. This is not a break the bank place with pricing that beats all the others locally.
My son and his wife and my grandson will be going here from now on he said. I look forward to going here again when in-state visiting.
Folks, I highly recommend trying this excellent restaurant. I'm am sure that you'll enjoy it as it checks off all the boxes and the sushi is very fresh and well made.
Sorry, but we were so hungry that I forgot the main course pictures.“

“just delicious!!“

“The sushi here never disappoints! I don't order here often but I've never had a bad or wrong order. The BBQ squid is so good, if you like that sort of thing. The Godzilla roll was my go to but I tried the Valentine roll and it's excellent. So many choices but love my favorites. I highly recommend trying them if you haven't already.“

“This food does not disappoint! Highly recommend the Bento Box dinners! It’s literally enough for 2-3 meals or if you can agree on the 2 choices definitely enough to share. Sashimi is fresh and delicious, sushi rolls are creative.“
