50 Best Sushi Bars near Little Ferry

“We celebrated Father's Day 2022. The food was fantastic. We chose all you can eat. Everything was fresh. We met the owner, very pleasant and the staff are very nice people, they're accommodating, they will give you a 5 star service. Definitely will go back there from Jersey City.“

“My partner found a hidden gem in Williamsburg. We tried the seasonal omakase set. The fish was fresh, each piece was delicious. Also, enjoyed that when each piece came out, the hostess would show us a photo of the fish we’re eating. Chef Leo is really knowledgeable with the food, so don’t be afraid to ask for information. Will definitely come back!“

“Sushi onakase Shinzo best“

“I was recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint. The price for quality is certainly a great deal.

All of the fish tasted extremely fresh. Each course was unique and had its own spin. Our chef did an excellent job. The waitresses were also very attentive and thorough.

My one critique is that if you are sitting in the seats closer to the door, the music can be very loud. It was difficult to understand what our chef was saying most of the time.

Nonetheless, I certainly recommend coming here for a great prices Omakase in NYC.“

“Just awesome. Fast. Efficient. Great.“

“Hole in the wall sushi spot. It’s a small and cozy spot in the LES. The size allows you to enjoy the food and chefs on a personal level. I also genuinely have not had fresher fish than here, every piece was mind blowing, the fact that it’s only $68 for 12 pieces! I’m so impressed and I truly can’t recommend it enough. Better than any Michelin I’ve ever had! Also if you love uni like I do, it’s a must.“

“My daughter chose this for a birthday dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. Audrey was our server. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, made great recommendations, she was there when we needed her without being there too often. I would highly recommend Rosella Sushi. Can’t wait to get back to New York City and return for a meal here. It also makes it extra cool when Chef Jeff is wearing a Florida Gator hat!“

“Excellent sushi!!!! Fresh fish. Amazing food.“

“Absolutely loved our experience yesterday. The basic omakase was delicious at $38, no hidden charges, and staff were lovely. Only slightly minor quibble was everything seemed a bit rushed and a little less peaceful than other places I've been to, but fair enough at that price. I was also a bit surprised at the rudeness of a customer talking on her phone when the staff were trying to engage her. That's not the restaurant's fault but maybe worth having a sign about using phones less and being in the moment more?!“

“Absolutely amazing food was delicious and the attention of the staff unique.“

“I SWEAR THIS IS WORTH THE PRICE !! The attention is amazing, 2 chefs working right in front of you and food is ready sooo quick. The sushi is URGH amazing, super creative and everyone around me told me this had been their favourite omakase yet. NOTHING could have made this better, it was an amazing place, quality food and great chefs.“

“I highly recommend anyone reading this to come try! I wish I could give 10 stars. Make a resy. This was honestly one of the best dining omakase experiences!! But not only was the experience great, so was the food and drinks. Karina was very kind on explaining us the drink options, and finding us the perfect drink we would love. Her and the chef were also super kind on telling us every piece we were eating and where it was from. Alex was also such a great host. Always asking how everything was and also make great small talk, getting to know us. The food was such great quality also so it was well worth the omakase price. I also ordered their special which had Uni-Toro-Wagyu-HotateCaviar. It was DIVINE!!“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“Creative, fresh and delicious.“

“Love the pad thai so much. Really authentic Thai kitchen. Thank you so much guys. I really enjoyed this!“

“Haven’t eaten this well since I was last actually in Japan late 2019 before you know what! Loved the Korean flavoured belly pork.“

“The food was wonderful and the ambiance lovely. The service pretty attentive and cheerful. But the desserts were overpriced and not worth it. Try the udon noodle with mushroooms. . yumm.“

“Hidden gem on the LES. 14 course omakase for $89 that rivals competitors at twice the price. Chef Jeff was friendly and engaging, like speaking to an old friend as he gave insight on each ingredient. Ngiri was delicious, top notch fish prepared right in front of you. Favorites include shaved truffle over toro (sublime), buttery hamachi, amazing amberjack, and their signature caviar/uni/toro over milkbread (heaven in one bite). They offered free sake shot and mochi dessert. Beautiful space as well right on Eldridge near Houston. We are definitely coming back.“

“Thirteen Water is an unforgettable dining experience and our go-to spot for special occasions. The chefs are incredibly attentive, and the menu is full of creative, one of a kind flavor combinations you can’t find anywhere else. Every course bursts with freshness and balance, showcasing top-quality ingredients prepared with care. The experience feels focused and intentional—you’re there to enjoy the food, not get distracted with extras. Service is quick, the atmosphere is comfortable, and every visit feels like a treat.“

“Went inside on a whim and so glad we did. The handrolls were incredible. The fish was great quality and creativity was next level. Our favorites were the xo scallop (must get), tuna poke, salmon serrano, aka ebi, toro scallion, and spicy lobster. Not as big of a fan of cooked/fried fish in sushi, but tried the coconut shrimp and spicy crab dynamite due to the many recommendations, and thought they were just okay. Also didn’t think the caviar starter was anything special.“

“Fuku Omakase was a decent experience overall. The courses were well-executed, the fish was fresh, and everything was generally good. However, a few details held the meal back from being truly memorable.

One issue we had was the rice. It was overcooked and too soft, which affected the texture and balance of the sushi. Additionally, the atmosphere was not as refined as expected. The background music was TOO loud, which seemed to encourage customers to raise their voices just to be heard. It made the space feel more chaotic than relaxing.

Fuku has potential, but a few adjustments—especially to the rice and the ambiance—would make a big difference.“

“Best sushi I ever eat in NYC“

“Excellent experience the food was amazing. The service was out of this world. It was impeccable.“

“The omakase was soo good. Definitely recommend the golden ducky“

“Incredible food and service. Hard to believe it has been 1 year since the opening. Crave Sushi Bar is now an entrenched restaurant in this neighborhood. It is the best sushi experience in all of New York City. My wife and I are always felt welcomed at the restaurant.“

“Sushi Nakazawa is an unforgettable experience. The sushi is flawless — fresh, delicate, and prepared with incredible skill and precision. Every piece feels like a work of art. The chefs are engaging and passionate, and the service is smooth and attentive without being overbearing. The space is elegant yet relaxed, making the whole meal feel special from start to finish. Truly one of the best sushi experiences in the city.“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“An incredible omakase experience! Every course was beautifully presented and thoughtfully prepared, with fresh flavors that flowed perfectly from start to finish. The chef’s creativity and attention to detail made the meal truly memorable. The atmosphere was intimate and welcoming, and the service was impeccable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable omakase.“

“I had a really wonderful time here - and enjoyed the excellent food! I found the service to be extremely attentive, and all the staff very responsive to needs and the fact that I am pescatarian and requested one modification to the set omakase. I got the 15 course omakase with the sake pairing and all of the pieces were delightful! The fish was firm and fresh, and tasted great, and I loved the light hand the chef used for the sauces. I will definitely come back.“

“The BEST dining experience of my life. I commend the chefs for being able to create an incredible experience out of a cuisine that emphasizes purity. They are truly masters of their craft, and it shines through with each and every bite. I also want to thank Brandon, and the entire staff, for delivering on just above and beyond service even for a Michelin star restaurant.

My full review of each aspect of the meal:

Food:
We booked the Gentei Omakase experience and loved every bite. I had very high expectations for the rice with how much they talk about it on the website, and even those expectations were exceeded. The rice is spectacular. When it comes to the fish, it was a wonderful mix of classics like Otoro, and an introduction to new favorites of mine like the Kinki. Each piece tastes delicious and came with the perfect amount of freshly grated wasabi. Understanding the selection was seasonal, the mix was just perfect. There were cuts of perfectly springy texture, melt-in-your-mouth buttery sweetness, and delicate umami flavor. I can’t really put into words how the food had changed my view of sushi forever. NOW, let me talk about the sake pairing. My sake experience was H-Mart sake, so maybe I’m not the expert. That said, this sake pairing has completely changed everything I thought sake could be. Brandon, our sake expert, was kind of enough to dumb down the explanations of all the sake to us, giving us a history lesson on each bottle and helping us learn tasting notes to look out for. I felt like it was like someone showing me a whole new world that I didn’t know existed. If you are reading this, best of luck on the exam next year! I want to thank you for making our evening so special.

Service:
I may not have the 20+ Michelin meals the other reviewer had, but of the few I have had, this one stands out as by far the best. They were able to blend together an intimate dining experience and a show. It was food with a little showmanship to curate to those who wanted pictures of every piece and those who wanted to just sit and eat. The chefs were attentive, asking questions on taste and consistently giving context to what we were eating. They gave a thorough explanation on the origins of the rice, and even gave context about seasonality of the fish. I felt like I was in a masterclass, being taught by two of the best to ever do it. Then the rest of the wait staff was just absolutely fantastic. They came by with phone rests, and even cleaned up small drops of sauce on the serving plate, to assure it did not compromise the flavor of the next piece. The level of attention was perfect without being over the top.

Atmosphere: Simple. Just the way it should be.“

“Recently tried the Las Vegas Sushi midweek lunch special. The Hwe-Dup-Bap was well made, with fresh ingredients, and served with miso soup. We will be returning.“

“Went to Choo Choo Train with five friends. Ordered Miso Salmon entree and it was delicious. Salmon was grilled perfectly, broccoli and carrots were cooked well and still crunchy, and mashed sweet potatoes were yummy. Cannot say enough about food and attentive service. Will return...no doubt!“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“Sushi was amazing. My daughter is allergic to soy and our waiter was very helpful! Service was very good.“

“Simply superb. The fish and shellfish are pristine. The chefs are skilled and approachable. The servers are helpful and gracious. While not “inexpensive,” I believe it’s a value for what is delivered. I’ve been three times—just last night for the first time, I’m sorry to say, since COVID—and each time was exquisite. Beyond highly recommended. A treasure.“

“You cannot beat their happy hour! Each piece of sushi is around double the size of your typical NYC piece. I also got the sushi tacos and those were fun and different from what I typically get. I also got a bottle of the cold sake. I will definitely be coming back here soon!“

“Hunted for an omakase restaurant on our NYC vacation. This is the best meal I’ve had in my life. Not exaggerating. Watching Jiro’s intense focus and passion for his craft makes the experience all the better. I’ll be back any time I’m in NYC.“

“I absolutely love Anytime Kitchen in Fort Lee! From the vibe to the service and, of course, the food—it’s all excellent.
I’ve tried several dishes here: Uni Buckwheat Noodles, Old-Fashioned Fried Chicken, Clam sujebi (수제비) , Spicy Seafood Stew, Beef Tartare, and Sweet Potato Fries. The Uni Buckwheat Noodles taste luxurious—perfect if you want a refreshing, pasta-like dish. The Old-Fashioned Fried Chicken takes a little time to cook, but it’s totally worth the wait—they even cut it for you! The Handmade Dumpling Soup is so 얼큰 and flavorful you might find yourself reaching for a whole bottle of soju, and their soups always come in very generous portions. The Spicy Seafood Stew is huge and packed with fresh seafood—it’s definitely worth the price. Sweet potatoe fries and beef tartare is a good option for side dishes. We got a service I think the name was seafood avocado but that was def would be a great side dish when drinking wine.
The service is excellent too. I dropped my fork once, and someone immediately brought me a new one—attentive service like that really makes a difference.
The vibe of the restaurant strikes a perfect balance between elegance and casual comfort. It’s great for a casual date, a team outing, or just a relaxed night out.
I will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend Anytime Kitchen to my friends. This place is a hidden gem that hits all the right notes!
* I don’t have all the pics *“

“Everything about this place is just perfect. My wife and I went here for dinner on our anniversary. The restaurant itself is beautiful and thoughtfully designed and decorated, and every dish we were served was outstanding. I particularly liked the toro, wagyu, and eel/foie gras nigiri, but there wasn't a single bite I didn't enjoy. To top it all off the staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive. We would highly recommend to anyone!“

“This place is just a GEM in the neighborhood!
I love the chef counter and the Omakase experience
I can't get enough of it
And the fresh Uni mmmmmmmm

So so special
Love the ambience atmosphere service food everything!!“

“I tried the poke bowl, takoyaki, and tofu steak at Ooi Sushi Bar—and everything was so good and incredibly fresh. The poke bowl was flavorful with perfectly marinated fish, the takoyaki had that crispy-outside, creamy-inside texture that hits just right, and the tofu steak was a total standout—crispy, savory, and full of umami. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!“

“Highlight of my entire trip, and maybe the best omakase set I’ve had, not to mention it was to-go at that!! I would’ve loved to dine in, but an advance reservation is a must!! Happy I still got to experience this and will be back for more 🙂‍↕️“

“14 course omakase for an hour“

“Just saw an amazing Broadway show and came here not expecting anything and was blown away... all the sushi - ikura, uni, toro was so fresh and delicious. You have to try their pork & chive dumplings that the chef finishes off with this yellow, mild cheese sauce - its the best!“

“I took my family here and it was good. The price is super affordable and the food is not bad. There are a couple new employees that do not speak English very well but some do. The atmosphere is just amazing from traditional Japanese sitting to normal tables. I will defiantly recommend this place.

Vegetarian options: There is a little section labeled vegetarian and my daughter really enjoyed it.“

“Best sushi I have ever had.“

“An extraordinary omakase experience.“

“Chef Andy was excellent!👍“

“Our first time at Zest. We enjoyed the sushi and other items on their happy hour menu. The tapas style sizes were a bargain and we got to try a lot of items for only $6. The sushi was fresh and innovative. Everything we tried was super tasty and yummy. We especially enjoyed the “Salmon Dream” and the salmon skin salad. Our kids liked the pork shumai and the chicken fried rice. Not very Japanese but still super yummy. The Sapporo beers were $6 for HH and a bargain. We came on the weekend and Broome street is super lively and becomes a pedestrian only street which makes it even more accessible. We want to come back soon to try the items on their happy hour menu which we missed since we left super full and happy. Leave room for mochi ice cream for dessert.“

“The best sushi I ever had.Friendly chef and attentive staff.“
