wow!!! i just bought the vegan bowl, and i left no crumbs on my plate. i decided to try something new today, considering i’ve tried their shiitake rolls before and it was so good. 1000/10, will definitely return!this spot never misses!
I order from here a few times per month - unbelievable food, sushi is very fresh and high quality, staff is friendly, attentive and always accommodating. So happy to have a restaurant like this in JC!

Came here multiple times, and tried a variety of things. Everyone in this neighborhood raves about it. Have people just not had really good Japanese food before??? Salmon bento box: literally cannot compare to the bento box from Ondo...a bit more expensive but worth it. The bento box here is mediocre at best...The main salmon they give you is like 4 bites...and the sides Lack flavor, seasoning...effort.... just don't order it.chicken bento box: barely any chicken, the chicken had a weird flavor? And the veggies were not good again. spider roll: don't get this...it tasted really fishy (actually got a bad stomach ache the next day) The only thing I would vouch for at this place is their spicy salmon roll some of the freshest salmon I've tasted and the flavor is great! Ambiance here is quaint. Very small hole in the wall that seat about 6 people. People claim the ramen to be superb...but I'm honestly so scared to even try anything else.

Very homey vibe, as the place is verrrry small. There are maybe 4 seats at the counter and then a small table. That’s it. You can see the kitchen working. I got the pork ramen, which was definitely a little bland. Presentation was great. The mushrooms were probably the tastiest part. I really admire the effort and cozy ambience though, and I imagine people normally come here for the bento dishes and grab takeout.

Such a magnificent japanese restaurant to be at. I love dining in here. The scenery and music were great. Such wonderful, hard-working folks give great service. The lady has such a vibrant smile and a beautiful aura.I love everything about this place.
We drove from another town to check out this place. Had to drive around the area for a while to find parking since JC street parking gets tough often. The food was pretty good. I really liked the ramen with pork it wasn't as salty as some of the other places and the soup had healthy meat soaked taste. Sushi and sashimi combo was decent but so small that we had to order two. Service was great and they were very attentive. The restaurant itself is quite small and very hot. We ended up sitting outside and got bitten by mosquitos several times. Overall pretty good spot but it's mainly for pickup or quick dropby.

We had the beef bento and tuna poke with edamame to start. Everything was fresh and delicious. They had seasonal specials that sounded delicious but I don’t eat cooked fish so we stayed on menu. We ate at the small tables out front and the service was spot on. We will definitely be back.

What's with the new restaurants in the Heights that are only open for like 4 hours on 4 days a week?? Why not put a sign out saying "don't come here". This place is clearly not for the people of the Heights. Way to be an integrated addition to the neighborhood. I'll never try going here again. Are you selling unicorns?

We tried ozu for the first time and it was absolutely incredible. We tried sushi, a noodle dish, cucumber salad and a pork app. All were phenomenal. The service was great and we got to sit outside which was also really nice!
The best Bento boxes in Jersey City! Tofu Teriyaki is a must try vegan option.
