I recently had the pleasure of dining at this incredible omakase restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was serene and inviting, setting the perfect tone for the evening. The chef's mastery was evident in every meticulously crafted dish, each one a delightful surprise that showcased the freshest ingredients and exquisite flavors. The attention to detail and the personalized service made us feel truly special. Every bite was a culinary journey, and I can't recommend this place highly enough. Five stars all the way!

6/5 star experience food was extremely delicious waiter was attentive. I would recommend BYOB since drinks outside of water are not offered. It didn't bother us in the slightest for our meal, but we will bring something for next time.

I recently had the most exceptional omakase experience, where everything felt genuine and true to its essence. The food was clean and honest, with each dish reflecting the highest quality ingredients. The tuna courses, in particular, were absolutely phenomenal—truly the highlight of the meal, showcasing the chef's mastery in technique and flavor. The staff provided impeccable service, creating a warm and attentive atmosphere that made the entire dining experience even more memorable. Every aspect, from the ingredients to the preparation, was executed with sincerity and skill. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic omakase experience!

Definitely one of the best sushi omakase in NJ. To be honest, it was a better experience than some of sushi omakase experience I had in NYC. It was better than Sushi Nakazawa
The staff is very knowledgeable. There was an intimacy with the food preparation. Everything was well prepared and everything was done Right.
Sauces for various sushi were done by hand and was the definitely the highlight of the dishes.

First of all, thanks to Chef Jonathan who gave us unforgettable experience with amazing sushi!
Every piece of course was kind of art piece and flavorful. Especially freshness of fish was excellent and the portion was pretty satisfying. Chef Jonathan kindly explained each course with great knowledge. Look forward to revisiting next winter :)
I'm a sushi lover and have been to many top sushi restaurants in NY and NJ. My chef was great, but it was way overpriced, and the food wasn’t that impressive at all. Personally, I think you get better value for your money by going to other sushi places, like Bada Story.

Food was exquisite, excellent presentation, and the staff are friendly. Well priced for Omikase. The decor was clean and crisp white. Maybe adding a little more element and colors will elevate the space even more. Overall excellent! Will definitely go back. Note that there is street parking and municipal parking but the area could get busy. Give extra time to look for parking.

Wonderful experience, definitely exceeded my expectations. Food was amazing and the communication with the Chef was lovely. As a resident who lived in Fort Lee for more than 10 years, I'm very proud that there is a restaurant with such a high quality food and service level in the town.

Front of house was not welcoming but cold. Luckily Jonathan the sushi chef and Brian? (glasses with hair bun) attending to the sushi counter, were exemplary! Counter area is in a tight and narrow area but still gave an airy feel. Clean counter with nice glass and dishware. Appetizers and sushi presentation were nice. Quality of fish and subtle sauces with varying tiny flavor toppings enhanced the sushi vs mask. No extra soy sauce needed. The varying and numerous one bite tasting pieces were spot on. Don't expect huge sashimi slices with mounds of rice to soak with soy sauce. This is not that kind of place. The finale of flavorful miso soup and the tiny dessert of black sesame creme brule was a perfect ending to a very generous experience. For the quality and quantity of the dishes, $155 omakase is a deal, though not for frequent visits. BYOB can help the wallet and they attend to it as if they were selling it.

I don't understand this place... You're already paying more for quality & the Sushi is pretty good... but why skimp so much on the cut of fish/rice!?!? size of sushi is small & not the accurate size like you'd have in Japan... every piece I was served felt more like a tease & left me feeling underwhelmed.. The flavors are good but would it really kill them to make it the accurate size!?
