50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Florham Park

“Delicious! We always enjoy it there.“

“Great food, wonderful service. Friendly staff We always enjoy our meals and like to support a local family business.“

“I love this place. My sister and I try to go at least once or twice a month. The food is great, the quality is awesome, and the service is good. You don't have to wait too long for your food. My little sister usually gets her California and shrimp tempura rolls. I get the rainbow roll and the O.M.G roll but everything we've tried is crazy good. I would 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.“

“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.“

“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“

“just delicious!!“

“I had the seafood tempura. So much food that I had to take it home. Have to go back to try more menu items.“

“I love coming to Wasai Bistro whenever I’m visiting the east coast. I’ve followed Chef Nelson since his days at Aozora and Wabi Sabi. His food quality, menu options, and value are unmatched in the area. Once you try his food you will understand why he has so many repeat diners. I highly recommend the Mes Reves Roll, Uni and bone marrow ramen, Miso glazed sea bass entree and salmon lover entree but it’s very hard to go wrong with anything Chef Nelson serves. Parking is street parking only but honestly I’ve always had a very easy time finding a spot. BYOB so you can drink what you love.“

“Woman who takes orders is absolutely the worst. It’s my birthday she won’t even give a single smile or have any sense of being personable. You need to replace her or your reputation is gonna go down the drain. Ruined my birthday lunch. I had a feeling she might be awful every day cause this has happened before so we called ahead to warn it was my birthday and they assured we should come. Regret it! Seriously get rid of her!!!!!!“

“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.“

“very entertaining n food was very good“

“Very good dinner. Good size portions for the price. Definitely will come back“

“Sarku has been a staple of food courts for as long as I can remember. To be honest, the sushi is really good! We ordered at the front and they made it fresh on the spot. The chicken teriyaki is also very satisfying if you want a healthier option for lunch, it comes with rice and mixed vegetables.“

“Me and my family have been coming here for years and they never disappoint. The sushi here is so fresh, and they have more fish options than any other place I’ve been to. The owners are wonderful and the service is fast and efficient. What’s not to love?“

“Sushi lovers and soon to be sushi lovers will enjoy this place! My wife and I visited this place for dinner before attending a show at the Paper Mill Playhouse.
Great food, atmosphere, and service! Definitely recommend the curry chicken entree!!

“Had a nice experience at the hibachi. Yen was very friendly.“

“We've been meaning to to try so many of the new restaurants in the area. We finally got here for a late lunch today. Not surprisingly on a Thursday at 2PM and snowing, we had the place to ourselves. It was fortunate because the woman who took care of us explained everything to us in detail. I wasn't familiar with the Kurobuta pork. Apparently it's known as the, "Kobe beef of pork." All their pork come from Berkshire pigs. They come from a farm in Jersey. I'm guessing North Jersey. (Lot's of cool info if you Google them) Cooking is done using White charcoal which is used in traditional Japanese cooking. We started with the crispy cauliflower. It had crispy shallots & tahini vinegarette on them. They were delicious! Then the Shanghai bao. Filling was pork. (naturally) So delicious and juicy! When you slice them in half watch for the juice to squirt! We ordered six skewers. Two with pork jowel (cheek) Two regular pork and two fish. Again, delicious. i also had a bowl of spicy miso ramen. Our server explained how the broth is simmered for eight hours with pig bones and marrow. I could tell as the broth was very rich! That was it for us. We were both very full and i even took half of my ramen. We can't wait to return and bring friends! Highly recommend! ✌️“

“This was my first visit to Blue Wazabi I Loved It!! Large menu selection and wonderful food and portion size. Definitely, will visit again.“

“I have been coming here for dinner with my friend since 2016.
The food is consistently excellent. We normally get two or three different types of sushi & a hot dish. Favorites include -seaweed salad, gyoza, tropical roll and chicken /beef/ shrimp teriyaki. 🍣“

“Delicious sushi! Good prices. Lots to pick from - we enjoyed a bit of everything from the sushi menu. They have a few tempura rolls, a few naruto rolls (cucumber wrapped, no rice), and a whole 2 pages for regular and special rolls. I enjoyed everything my table tried. Lots of variety to find something for you!

Lost a star for me on service - vibe is nice but we waited a while to order and receive our check even though there were very few guests dining in on a Friday night. Seems like a great takeout choice otherwise!“

“The minute I walked in I knew I was in an awesome place. The staff was wonderful and the food was unbelievable. My girlfriend and I need to go back soon as there is too many things I want to try.“

“Nice place. Friendly staff. Good came out within minutes. Seating arrangements were.. humble. The food was delicious. The amount you get for the lunch special is amazing. Definitely recommend that. With extra chicken. Sushi was okay. Not too much of a fan but was still enjoyable. Great for quick bite.“

“I wish I could give 4.5, my sushi rolls were fantastic and beautifully displayed. My husband's dish, beef soba noodles, was great but not excellent. Staff were very friendly and the food came out very quickly Overall wonderful experience!“

“Loved their lunch box with chicken teriyaki. Wife had several rolls, and liked all of them. Became our favorite Asian restaurant in Bernards/Warren area. It may be crowded during the evening hours. Recommend to order take out rather than waiting to be seated.“

“I get poke here after all my afternoon hikes and it’s definitely one of the best in NJ. Ingredients taste fresh and the portions are fair and filling. Theres so many different combinations. You get up to 2 protein, 5 topping, 3 crunchy toppings, and 2 sauce. Everying else is a bit extra. Really yummy and I’ll continue to eat here“

“Our daughter suggested dinner here!
Called to make reservation, reservations only accepted for party of 8 or more.
We arrived and requested table for 3.
We were seated once my daughter arrive!
Constant flow of dining in customers and take out orders!
Food was very tasty!
Street parking.
Bathroom clean!“

“sakae sushi has delicious foods.“

“My daughter and her roommate from rutgers went there got all you could eat sushi weren't happy with it and they were charged for the entire thing even though they told the owner it didn't taste right they've been sick for the last 2 days throwing Up from both ends don't go near this place“

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

“We always enjoy Yuki Hana. Since pandemic we've only ordered take-out, but look forward to dining in-person soon. Favorite dish, besides sushi, is katsudon. Delicious!“

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

“Best sushi within 100 miles“

“Very straightforward Japanese food. Sushi bar was small and crowded in by take out preparation and close tables. That detracted from the fun of watching experienced chefs make the art. We also had a very loud bunch right behind us at a table so loitering over a sake was just not going to happen. We ate and dashed.“

“The food was quite delightful. When we came in we were seated immediately. Our orders were taken within 2 minutes and the food came out just 5 minutes later. The atmosphere was warm and cozy. The authenticity was also quite marvelous. Definitely coming back!

Dietary restrictions: Not sure I don’t have any.

Kid-friendliness: Pretty kid friendly. I saw that there were high seats for children and small kids enjoying everything.

Wheelchair accessibility: You have to get up stairs to go here so it might not be the best option but if you manage to get up, there is quite a lot of space for a wheelchair“

“Yum! Great split decision for lunch. Parking can be tight and they could bring back indoor dining.“

“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.

“I get the general tso's chicken.I don't get the teriyaki. It's pretty good I just love the general tso's that much more. I get a pretty much with the brown rice. This time I got the bento box version and it was delicious. They have great customer service and really good chicken wings“

“We love coming to Fujiyama Mama for our sushi Family day! Food is delicious and service is great as well.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Came here for happy hour / early dinner. Sat at the bar, service was great! Alberto helped us for most of the night and was so friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Hands-down the best sushi in NJ, and probably the tri-state area, including NYC. I worked in NYC for 15 years and this place is superior to any sushi restaurants I went to.“

“The sushi itself was pretty average, and the rice felt a bit dry. The mango shrimp roll we ordered had a pretty good flavor. Service was very good and everything was pretty affordable! We ordered an app, two sushi rolls, and two desserts for $45.“

“50% off sushi if you pay cash! I got enough sushi to feel totally full for $12 and it was so good! Their tempura maki especially has a good combo of different veggies and is very satisfying/filling.

Vegetarian options: For sushi: Tempura maki is ?✨ They also have tamago and the usual avocado/cucumber roll.“

“Great 😊 restaurant very nice 😊 people the owner love the food desert 😊⛄️⛄️⛄️🌺“
