“One of the best sushi spots I've been to. The fish was incredibly fresh, and every dish was flavorful and well-prepared. The quality of the ingredients really stood out, making for an excellent dining experience. If you're a sushi lover, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'll be coming back again.“

“Had an absolutely amazing dining experience. From start to finish, Jojo gave us the best service and attention. The food was not only delicious, but of the highest quality. Ryan was our waitress and she was so sweet and attentive. All of the servers who attended to us were kind and detailed in their explanations of the dishes. It was truly a night to remember and now one of my favorite spots. Highly recommend!!!!“

“A hidden gem! We stumbled upon this place on a walk and decided to grab a bite. We didn’t have a reservation but was quickly seated with a full bar of other diners for the lunch omakase. Great service, yummy food, and unbeatable pricing. This was such a treat! I will make sure to come back when we are in the area.“

“Best sushi / sashimi / poke / boba & everything else on the menu on this side of the Mississippi, actually probably both sides of the Mississippi honestly.
I’ve eaten at many similar style places all over the tri-state area, nothing beats Poke Express

Gina & Tony are the best“

“Great authentic Japanese plus modern inclusions. Options for the whole family“

“Ordered via GrubHub for a late Friday night dinner when the sushi craving hit. I ordered a tuna bowl, and hubby had a salmon bowl. All of the sushi bar bowls come with edamame, miso soup, seaweed salad, kani salad, regular salad (in this case, it was arugula), and avocado. The fish came in huge chunks, lightly marinaded, and tasted fresh. No complaints. I’d order again and try some actual rolls next time. I saw on their menu a pretty good deal for lunch - $12.50 for three regular rolls, so I’ll have to check that out.“

“Was visiting my godchild and she wanted to eat here. The staff was amazing as was the ramen. Cozy and cool. We went for lunch on a Saturday and we were seated right away. I would definitely go back“

“Staff treats you like family, love how the place is always decorated, and decoration is included in the prefix menu's, birthday packages for free! Food is great, loove the ceviche and chicken mofongo with white sauce. My son is a fan of their Chowfan. They also cater for parties! To me the most important thing is the music, whether there's a dj or not, the music is great! They play everything!“

“It was my replacement for Tomoe downtown after it changed to tomo21. the fish became half the size, the price much higher, so I stopped going. Last time, their chirashi fish became a bit thinner. i hope they don't follow suit, and make it thinner and thinner.“

“Well presented Japanese cuisine“

“Sushi and food is pretty good overall but the service at this place is really hit or miss. There are two (I believe) revolving servers/people who answer the phone. The younger server is very polite and friendly. However the other is incredibly rude, on the phone, and in person. I ordered from this place very often in the past but I will no longer be ordering from here. His attitude makes it not worth it for me. Overall if you’re just looking for good sushi this place is fine, but don’t expect good service.“

“Love love love this place! The staff is amazing and the food can’t be beat! My absolute favorite place in Ridgewood!“

“Great service and really yummy food.“

“Everything we had was amazing and tasted incredibly fresh! The sushi was delicious, and you could really tell the ingredients were high quality. I also had the yuzu drink, which was so refreshing and perfectly balanced—not too sweet at all. Our server, Sebastian, was very attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“Service was wonderful and sushi was excellent!“

“One of the best sushi spots I’ve been to! The food is fresh and delicious, and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!“

“We had a wonderful experience! The sushi was incredibly fresh, the ramen was flavorful and perfectly cooked, and everything tasted amazing. Our food arrived quickly, and we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious sushi and ramen!“

“Fresh and delicious! The sweetest people too. I bring my 10 year old daughter four out Mama and Me dates and she LOVES it so much. Please give them a try. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Sushi by Sea omakase experience was impeccable from beginning to end. Every detail was thought filled, from the warm, fun welcome and attentive service to the exceptional fish selection. Chef Chris created a superb, creative menu. Each bite felt intentional, highlighting the freshness of the fish with subtle details of house made sauces and garnishes that were exceptional.
What makes Sushi by Sea so special isn't just the extraordinary food, but Jay and Chef Chris' genuine hospitality and personal connection that make you feel like old friends at a dinner party.
Arrive as strangers, leave as friends~ truly captures the spirit of this incredible hidden gem.
Bravo, Jay and Chef Chris!!“

“i work in Harlem and this little gem on 124th is fabulous. the food is delicious, the lunch specials are well priced. I have had many lunches and dinners at this place. love love love it“

“Service and food were both amazing! My friend and I got the shumai, house special, shrimp tempura roll, and alaskan roll. The taste was so fresh-we have no complaints whatsoever. The staff was also very accommodating and sweet! We will definitely be coming back :)“

“I loved the place—it’s very nice, with a clean atmosphere and incredible, delicious food. Just one recommendation: improve the customer service. It’s terrible; the waiters don't pay attention to the tables or what the customer needs.“

“Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Wish we lived closer.“

“It's been years coming to parsley, I mean how can you not come here. Let me explain to you that this woman all by herself is managing this place. From Onigiris to Tuna Don, Maze Gohan as well as ramen soups. I mean everything is so perfect. She has a great selection of sake to die for as well as beer. Without mentioning that there is a variety of Wines. Excellent for Dine in and takeout. Overall, a great place for dates, as well as coming alone. You will not be disappointed.

Vegetarian options: Tofu soup, Vegetable Gyozas, vegetables Onigiris.“

“It is with a full stomach and heart that I am able to publicly share how wonderful Blu Sushi is. Not only is the fish the freshest, but it run by welcoming and friendly staff, chefs and owners. It is not often that you find a restaurant without any criticisms, but then I found Blu. The dining and take-out experiences are how all food establishments should be run. The staff are clearly happy and supported which makes it, without question, a smaller establishment that I am happy to patronize. If you are reading this and considering ordering or not, just do it. You will not be disappointed with the high quality for a great price . Thank you Blu, for the amazing food and homey feel :)“

“This is the best hibachi in Bergen county. If you are near montvale or saddle river you need to come and try. The atmosphere was beautiful and all staff were extremely helpful and lovely. The sushi is incredibly fresh and the owner is a very nice person. Would definitely come back again.“

“We have been ordering from poke zone for months and it has been our favorite spot in the area but the last few times, we noticed a drop in the freshness of the ingredients and it hit or miss which means they have been storing them for the next day or two instead of using fresh like they used to be. Sad“

“Ordered the Chicken Katsu and Chicken tenders. Both came with sliced cabbage and rice. Both were equally delicious. The breading was perfect and the meat was tender.

They do take reservations and I would recommend making one if you have small children, they have a limited amount of high chairs.“

“Great service, delish is food! Never disappoints.“

“We had dinner at Matsu on Friday......its a little gem in Hillsdale. We were pleasantly surprised, by the quality and quantity of the food. The Staff went out of their way to accommodate us. They very friendly and warm. It was a most enjoyable dinner. We have ordered food to takeout but hadn't been inside the restaurant since the pandemic.... We will definitely go again soon. It was a great experience and we both recommend you give it a try!“

“So good . When you order takeout fried food, they wait to the last minute of your delivery time to put the food in the fryer. Don't complain if you have to wait a few extra minutes . To get hot crisp food instead of soggy cold stuff that steamed it self cold in the togo containers. LOVE THEM.“

“The food is fresh and delicious. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is super-friendly & attentive. Will definitely come back!“

“absolutely delicious service was great .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤“

“I had an amazing experience at Masago Sushi in Ridgewood, NJ. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The prices are also such a big factor since its so low for such big portions. But what really stood out, was the service. The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and quick without ever feeling rushed. They made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. I would like to acknowledge the service of Ashley. She was so nice and really made us know that we didn’t make a mistake going here.

The atmosphere is also a big plus! Warm, clean, and relaxing, with a modern touch that makes it perfect for a casual lunch or a nice dinner out. You can tell they put care into creating an inviting dining environment.

Overall, Masago Sushi delivers great food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to everyone!“

“Omakase sushi is best quality and everything is authentic and excellent. Clean soothing atmosphere and great service“

“The BON bento box was hands down the best choice – everything was fresh, the evening with friends was so enjoyable, and I can’t wait to come back!"“

“Love This place !“

“Món ăn Nhật Bản ngon nhất tôi từng nếm thử. Tôi rất khuyến khích. Best japanese food I have ever tasted. I highly recommend.“

“Good food!🍱 a little bit dimly lit but it’s probably to make it feel and look cozy.“

“I don’t leave reviews often, but I had to because we had the kindest waitress of all time tonight. First off, they opened up the back section of the restaurant just to accommodate our group. The waitress was soooo sweet, especially to my baby niece and nephew. She gave them light up headbands to wear as well as pretty Christmas ornaments to take home. I have never experienced such great service. Also, the food was delicious (as always), and the babies loved the food too!“

“Great set up outside with tents and lights. Food is very fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. Prices are reasonable . Will , definitely , be back. Thank you Kumade!“

“We were five seconds away from getting hangry and we found this place. we both got the scallion pancakes and the pork ramen. Let me tell you the broth came out hot and plentiful. It was savory and rich. It was such a perfect end to our day. The scallion pancakes were pan fried and not deep fried, which we preferred. They were crispy and soft in the inside. I couldn’t recommend this hidden gem enough.“

“I love PJ Sushi. I’ve gotten their lunch special minimum once a week since I discovered them last year. When I saw their 14$ lunch special, I couldn’t believe how fresh and high quality their sushi is. I have never gotten sick eating here. This spot is truly IYKYK 🔥🔥🔥“

“I ordered the two-roll sushi combo with a California roll and a salmon avocado roll, and both were incredibly fresh and delicious. I also got the green salad with ginger dressing, which tasted so fresh and flavorful. The shrimp shumai were honestly addictive. They also included veggie gyoza and miso soup on the house, and both were delicious as well. Everything tasted fresh and well made, and I will definitely be returning to Kame Sushi.“

“The Umami Bomb is exactly that. the bomb (1990). So good back to pre-pandemic portions and tasty ingredients. Thank God you exist.“

“I’ve been coming to Sushi Story since the day it opened, and it continues to impress every single time. The first thing that stood out to me was the service—warm, immediate, and sincere. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted and made to feel welcome. The waitresses are consistently polite, attentive, and always carry a genuine smile. In particular, the waitress with the slicked-back hair has a way of elevating every visit; she’s made several special occasions truly memorable. The restaurant is almost always busy, and for good reason. Because seating can be difficult to secure, I strongly recommend making an RSVP ahead of time. Even with the constant flow of guests, the experience never feels rushed. The master sushi chef is actively engaged with diners, adding an extra touch of authenticity and hospitality to the meal. As for the food—exceptional. The salmon and tuna are always fresh, vibrant, and prepared perfectly. It’s easily one of the best places to enjoy a great evening out with family or friends. And don’t forget: it’s BYOB, so feel free to bring your favorite bottle of wine. Sushi Story is truly a gem, and I look forward to visiting again very soon.“
