50 Best Sushi Bars near Cranford

“Wonderful Japanese restaurant in the heart of downtown Cranford! Staff are courteous, attentive, and very accommodating. I especially appreciate the options of separate checks and allowing external cakes to be brought in for special occasions. Other places charge or don’t offer them at all, which is why I will continue to give Mizu my business. The sushi is absolutely amazing. The calamari or tuna avocado rolls are delightful. Dinner entrees never disappoint. Tempura, Teriyaki, and Crispy Red Snapper are incredible, just to name a few. I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to go back. BYOB.“

“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.“

“Food was amazing will come again“

“Great service , good attention and fresh food“

“I had the honor privilege and luck of being the very first customer to be served at Kanpachi Sushi during their grand opening on 4/29/2022. The very first think I noticed was how friendly and inviting the staff is, they make you feel welcome the second that you step into their establishment. The second thing I noticed was the how the new renovation which makes you want to come in and have a seat at a table or sit at the sushi bar to watch the sushi master construct your order before your eyes. I am impressed with the addition of this new business to Amboy Ave. The food is fresh, top-quality ingredients prepared by a world class chief and sushi master. I had lunch there yesterday and today. Oh, and did I mention that Kanpachi is a BYOB establishment? Sushi steak and Hibachi lovers, do yourself a favor and get over there. I am making this my go to spot for lunch or dinner, I give Kanpachi 5 stars. Thank you for picking Amboy Ave to open your sushi house.“

“Great dinner on a Saturday afternoon. Monty the waiter was pleasant and helpful. Food was great and fast 😊“

“Came here after work for dinner and was not disappointed. Appetizers and sushi came out very quickly, I ended up getting both a hot appetizer as well as one from the sushi bar. Additionally each of the three rolls I ordered were well made, all fish tasted fresh. I would return to sample more of their special rolls.“

“It’s a takeout joint - small- but it is so worth the trip! Fresh and delish! Anything from sushi to ramen .. Hard working friendly staff. I give them 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great food !! Amazing service!! Absolutely loved it !“

“5 Stars : Would Give More if I Could!
This sushi place is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with such warmth! it’s a sweet, cozy environment that makes you feel right at home. The staff are incredibly friendly and genuinely seem to care about your experience.

The menu is full of delicious options, and the quality is top-tier. The sashimi especially stands out—so fresh, perfectly cut, and just melts in your mouth. Every bite feels thoughtfully prepared. I’ve been to quite a few sushi spots, but this one truly stands out. If I could give more stars, I absolutely would. Highly recommend!“

“I called in specifically for a quick pick up order on Valentine’s Day and they had my order ready before I was there! The food is top-quality as we had the Philly Roll, Salmon Avocado, Salmon Sashimi and Shrimp Tempura. All recommended! Nice family business!“

“Great casual spot for basic sushi. Consistent. Wide selection of rolls if that’s what you like, which is really their focus. Regular sushi, nigiri, sashimi is good for the location, not high end and limited varieties but always fresh. Generous portions. Great friendly staff.“

“Food was great didn't take long for it to be prepared. Dumplings tasted amazing and the sushi was good aswell. Service was great cashier spoke both English and Chinese they were extremely helpful and polite. The place was clean and overall my experience was great.“

“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“

“Ginza Sushi Lounge is absolutely amazing! The sushi is always fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The chefs clearly take pride in their work. The atmosphere is modern and cozy, and the staff is warm and attentive. A perfect spot for a relaxing dinner or special occasion. Highly recommend the omakase and spicy tuna rolls!“

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

“Edit: posted a year ago but i STILLL COME HERE.

I've come here abt 20*** times so far and I've never had a bad food experience. I've had sushi from a lot of other AYCE, all you can eat, sushi places and I think this one is the best in terms of quality and variety. It's about $30 per person.

The fish here tastes fresh and NOT watered down like other places I've been to. The miso soup is good here too, it doesn't taste artificial and sweet like other places.

The special rolls are a little questionable, there are a lot of special rolls that aren't my type and extremely filling but I like the sashimi and regular rolls. The salmon is good here, so I always get salmon sashimi and Alaska rolls.

They also have other foods available in their AYCE like shumai, sesame chicken, lo mein, and calamari, takoyaki, etc. Most of their non-sushi items are good too. I have some friends who don't like seafood but they still get the ayce.

ONE THING TO NOTE, if you come here with a party of 5 or more, you will be charged a 15% service fee.“

“My fiancé and I play this alphabet game where we go A-Z and eat at a different restaurant beginning with each letter that we have never eaten at before. Needless to say, this was our “W.” We drove 45 minutes from North Brunswick and it was so worth it, we were truly satisfied. For appetizer we got; scallops butter yaki, chicken katsu, scallion pancakes, clear soup, miso soup, seaweed salad, and mango prawn salad. We ordered 4 specialty sushi rolls; blue crab fantastic, tropical, jersey, and rainbow dragon. For dessert we got bubble tea which was on the house 😊 we will definitely be back to eat here again! The only negative thing I have to say is that the place was very small inside and not many seats available for dine in as most of their business appears to be take out, but the food and service were so good that it cancels that out. Can’t wait to eat here again!“

“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!“

“Always fresh, superb rolls,great staff, a must if your a sushi fan 🍣“

“20250712::for $34.99 its not bad. the rice was a bit over cooked and mushy. BUT the MACKREL was the best, because it was lightly pickled and didnt have the acidity taste to it. the YELLOW TAIL was second best becuase it was soo smooth and melted as i ate it. yummy. there was a second huge dining room to accomadate more people and a second set of bathrooms too.“

“You’d never think this little spot in a strip mall area is anything, but it’s some of the best sushi I’ve ever had! Also the kimchi they give right when you sit down is amazing. I am a huge sushi fanatic and this is definitely Top 3 I’ve ever had. Service is wonderful.“

“great food selection good quality“

“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“

“I came here during lunch to pick up before I headed back to my job.

Takoyaki: The takoyaki here has improved and the inside has more squid pieces.

The fat cup: It is still delicious and really filling when you eat it.

The Staff: They are friendly here and very patient when taking the orders.

Green Apple Tea: This is a little too sweet and they could add a little more ice to eat to dilute it a little.

Spam Musubi: This was good except the rice falls apart when you try to take a bite out of it.“

“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 😃“

“Just happens we be in town and my daughter found this restaurant e we went try the food and see if the all you can eat suhi its like the ones we have in Brazil. this place did not disappointed us. Great variety rich in flavor and presentation. Not to mention that the service is excellent with genuinely welcoming people.
We definitely will be back !“

“soooo good definitely recommend coming here if you're a sushi lover“

“Lovely dinner with the family got some sushi rolls and love their good portions of Robata-yaki !! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND . Server is always looking out for us which makes us happy and ready to be full!!!“

“Happiness is when your favorite sushi restaurant delivers to your front door.“

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

“I love this place one of the best sushi restaurants in New Jersey!!!“

“First time. New to town. Got a no-rice roll, a spicy tuna roll and seaweed salad. A strong 4 stars. Very good, but different from what I'm used to...Somerville, NJ. Staff was 100% on point. Friendly and service was fast. I will definitely go back and try more.“

“We tried this place out after seeing it many times over the past couple of years. Since our other place has since closed not far off, we went here and we weren't really disappointed. The egg rolls, we were told are homemade, do seem homemade and are good. The Chinese menu is small but does cover some of the classics enough to find a dish you like. They focus on Sushi there, but not our interest. We've gone a few times now, it's no home run, but no strikes yet. Might be a good to try, if in the area and in an asian fare mood.“

“Great hibachi dinner experience, dining in is cozy but not crowded on weekday night, great to have conversations for two.Meal certainly filling for dinner, the hibachi shrimp lives up to the "The most flavorful shrimp you'll ever taste" Description.Service was quick and pleasant.“

“Taka Sushi in Summit is a 5-star gem for sushi newbies like me! Their miso soup is warm and balanced, Bento box offers great variety with tempura, California rolls, and a fresh side salad—the ginger dressing is very good, tangy and light. Loved the creamy avocado roll and fresh tuna tartar. Beginner-friendly service, fresh flavors—can't wait to return!!!!“

“very entertaining n food was very good“

“So delish. We highly recommend this place. Lots of good food to chose from for all you could eat.“

“Both the sushi and sashimi at Sushi Palace are amazing. You can always judge the expected quality of the food of a Japanese restaurant by the care they put into the miso soup. And the miso at Sushi Palace is wonderful, as so is every dish I have tried here.“

“the food was fantastic. the staff was super nice and friendly“

“Had a wonderful experience here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff were welcoming and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was cozy and perfect for a relaxed meal. Everything from the appetizers to the dessert exceeded my expectations. Definitely a place I’ll be recommending to friends and returning to myself“

“The food and service are always top notch! Wether you order a healthy salad, fresh sushi, American classics or any other item on the extensive & creative menu, Bistro 1051 will not disappoint. The service is always impeccable. The whole staff and the owner, Michael, are warm, friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy. I highly recommend for date night, lunch with friends and large events. This is one of my go-to restaurants in the Clark area. I’ve been a fan for well over 10 years!“

“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.“

“A friend and myself came across this gem by happenstance. The wait staff is incredibly kind and patient. The atmosphere was calming and the food is FANTABULOUS!!! I recommend this place for lunch and dinner. Whether it's just friends or a casual date.“

“Excellent selection, fresh food! I had the Cobb salad; loved it! Real chicken (compared to many restaurants serving processed, pre-cooked chicken)! The honey mustard dressing was amazing! My sons said the burger, onion rings & gyro were great too!“
