12 Best Japanese Restaurants in Jersey City

“Really fresh fish! Only had some yellowtail (I think) that seemed to be thawed so didn’t taste great. Otherwise, the Lover’s Boat was really good. All you can eat is another option I’ll try next time. Soup and salad are good as well. BOYB is a great plus, liquor store on the same block. Officially favorite local sushi spot!“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. That’s what this restaurant is built on, they’ve perfected what most couldn’t: late night eats that satisfy the soul. Each type of dumpling was made with extra TLC. The hibachi combos were delicious as well, loaded with flavor, I’d recommend the noodles. And lastly the star of the show were the bao dumplings and garlic soy sauce. It paired so well with the flavor palette given I was appalled. Simple options, spectacular taste, save money live better walmart“

“Itto Sushi has probably taken over my top spot for fresh Sushi in Hudson County and while it would be nice to have Sake choices at the restaurant, the ability to bring my own with their BYOB policy, I can easily pick up a decent Daigingo Junmai from several places nearby to the restaurant as Jersey Coties sake scene isnt pretty nice.“

“Got the $50 set menu, really good value. The 9 piece nigiri was really good. Miso black cod and coconut shrimp hand rolls also very good but logistically challenging. Korean chicken app was great, gyoza I didnt love. Place was clean and food was fast.“

“Vibes and more vibes def recommended“

“Lychee martini and seafood ramen“

“First time in this place. My boyfriend is very particular with the quality of tuna he’s getting from a sushi place, and Nigiri did not disappoint. I love my Salmon sashimi, too! The place is also well situated a few steps to Exchange Place, Waterfront which is a plus. Parking spot is a little hard to find but the food made it worth it.“

“Nice different place to enjoy with all the family“

“Love the North Riverside location they’re always delicious and the customer service is friendly and welcoming to say the least.“

“A small sushi stall in the middle of the Newport food court. Very nice workers running the place and the sushi is always very fresh! They have a decent selection of sushi and sides like seaweed salad and dumplings. I do wish it would be a little cheaper, but still greatly recommend it!“

“Absolutely amazing sushi!! The sashimi appetizer and spicy tuna tartare were amazing and I wish I had taken a picture. The rolls were so good! We got the (top to bottom) New Jersey, White Pearl, Crazy Tuna, Honshu (and more New Jersey). I think I'm remembering those names right.

We also had some non-sushi eaters in our party. They recommend the edamame and say the cooked fish is delicious too 😜“
