First time visiting during my lunch break, very cozy and inviting environment. Staff/owner was great, food / prices are fair and Delicious as well. You get more than what you pay for at Ubu which says a lot about the surrounding restaurants since you get so little with how much you pay. Will be coming back more often.

We order seafood tofu soup. There was only one shrimp and one clam. And it’s $15. The taste is about average. Off shelves miso soup is way better. I have been this place three times this month. Third time is a charm. We had some argument about the food I ordered. The owner become agitated and rude. If you have some experience with Japanese/ Korean, you would know the food here is only edible.

Soon doo boo soup tastes like instant msg soup and salty. There are some review-inflations across board. This place's yelp review is only 3.6. You are better off having instant noodle. Avoid this place. Edited(The owner seems like didn't agree with my comment and somehow got my previous review deleted. If you are curious about the food, go ahead. I rarely do restaurant reviews on google and have never had an unpleasant encounter with a restaurant owner until now. Maybe I watched too many episodes of Hell's kitchen.)

High cost, low performance, impatient and unfriendly service. the price and quality is of bad combination here. If you are craving for Asian, Korean or Japanese food, there are many other options around Hoboken.

The experience of dining there is negative. Portion is miserable. The phony smile on the owner's face worths as much as the food.

Ordered a few different things on the BOGO deal from Uber eats and the food is pretty bland. I’ve had better sushi in Hoboken

Jay is the best host there is - careful, friendly and even knows the frequent customers by name.Needless to say the food is absolutely delicious and plentiful.What I especially love about the place is the calm and quiet atmosphere, where it becomes a nice relaxing ritual for me after a hard day at work.Recently I've visited almost every single evening, hope Jay is not going get tired of seeing me there ?
Loved this place so much! Just went to this restaurant with my friend on saturday and I was so pleased with the whole experience! We were given great service the whole time - food came out pretty quick and tasted so good ! The serving sizes were perfect , and I even had a bit extra to take home later aswell!! The prices were super affordable and reasonable aswell! I would most definitely come again if I'm ever in the area again! Overall great experience !

Stopped in as a family for Ramen. Nice cozy, no frills spot. Ramen was delicious. Get the aged tofu appetizer. Very nice, accommodating staff.
Great lunch specials! Quick service & the sushi is always fresh.
