41 Best Japanese Restaurants near Mahwah

“This is my new favorite sushi restaurant. I’ve never been disappointed with any of the food I’ve gotten. My favorites are the salmon and tuna fashion rolls but everything is delicious. It’s small inside and I’ve never seen anyone eating there, but for takeout this is some of the best sushi in the area.“

“Super nice staff. Me and my girlfriend came in less than an hour before closing and they still let us sit and order. It was late at night and not a lot else was open. The food was every good and surprisingly really wasn’t that expensive for the quality of food. The sushi is amazing and the katsu isn’t thin.“

“Best Chinese food since moving from city“

“Great service and really yummy food.“

“We've been to a bunch of places in the nearby towns that serve the same types of food - boba, ramen, sushi, poke - Pokestop does each of them better than any of the other local places that specialize in only one. Friendly staff, delicious food, I would give it 6 stars if I could.“

“So delicious! The staff were so friendly and the place was very nice. Best Asian cuisine I’ve had in the area.“

“I’ve been over 5x in the past 5 months and they’ve never failed me. Staff and chefs are amazing. You must get the omakase (Lunch and dinner) or higher premium cuts because they source really really amazing stuff and you don’t want to miss out. The more basic common sushi is also great for more casual. And the omakase stuff that is truly the stand out ? high quality everything“

“I would say this is the best Hibachi I have ever had! All are cooked from the top notch fresh ingredients. The sea bass is juicy, the steak is just right, the fried rice and noodles have a pleasant garlic favor which I never had it before at other restaurants , homemade teriyaki sauce adds just right sweetness. We really enjoyed every portion of our plate! Highly recommended.“

“Good food!🍱 a little bit dimly lit but it’s probably to make it feel and look cozy.“

“I own a business in the same strip next to Sushi Nigiri. I have been ordering Sushi from there since it's opening. I have never written a review until now, but I must say, this place is AWESOME. I'm used to New York City sushi (I live in Manhattan) and this is just as good as most places. I highly recommend this place and I wish this place does more business!“

“Absolutely amazing! Mr. Nam makes the freshest, most tasteful sushi I've ever had. He's got a kind heart and is always so sweet to my kids. What a great place!“

“Sushi lovers heaven! IYKYK. This not so secret spot dishes out the freshest cut ups and inventive sushi combinations and prime sashimi at HALF THE PRICE! You heard me! NO CAP! Be it dinner for two or a larger party, this is the place to go that won’t break the bank. As for quality and presentation: top scores all around! Service is super friendly, courteous and fast. And guess what? It’s BYOB! #winning However, it’s first come first serve and really fills up on the weekends, so plan accordingly. Decor is no great shakes but not what you are here for. So sit back and enjoy the food of the gods served at Masago. You will certainly return time and again! Guaranteed!

Parking: Best thing to do is park across the street in the open multi level parking garage

Kid-friendliness: They truly take care of the kids here.“

“So good . When you order takeout fried food, they wait to the last minute of your delivery time to put the food in the fryer. Don't complain if you have to wait a few extra minutes . To get hot crisp food instead of soggy cold stuff that steamed it self cold in the togo containers. LOVE THEM.“

“It is with a full stomach and heart that I am able to publicly share how wonderful Blu Sushi is. Not only is the fish the freshest, but it run by welcoming and friendly staff, chefs and owners. It is not often that you find a restaurant without any criticisms, but then I found Blu. The dining and take-out experiences are how all food establishments should be run. The staff are clearly happy and supported which makes it, without question, a smaller establishment that I am happy to patronize. If you are reading this and considering ordering or not, just do it. You will not be disappointed with the high quality for a great price . Thank you Blu, for the amazing food and homey feel :)“

“Love coming here for the all you can eat sushi! I love how it’s so close to my house for all you can eat sushi! It’s sooo affordable and everything you order is phenomenal! Best prices and fresh sushi! Nikki is so friendly only place I’ll get sushi!“

“Service was great & food was delicious“

“Lived in the area for a couple years and this was my first time visiting this place. Absolutely loved it. Service was excellent but the show stopper is the food. I ordered Spicy Salmon Rolls and they were, for the first time, actually spicy. Everything tasted fresh and portion sizes were above average. Price was average for sushi in the area but I’m not complaining. Will be back for sure“

“This place is amazing! We are in town for work every other month and we dream about our lunch at Kumo. EVERYONE here is very kind, amazing service, and the fish is so fresh . Look no further you are here now and you will be satisfied my friends.“

“Best Sushi in RIDGEWOOD , easily …..“

“Good things come to those who wait.
After eating at another establishment not far from here, the name caught our eye. As we walked we noticed a market attached. We proceeded in and bought several things that sparked our interest. As we left we said,
“ let’s come back and eat here one day!”
Yesterday was the day, we stumbled in early and were lucky enough to snag a tiny booth as we had no reservations ( hint ).
We found out after thoroughly enjoying this meal that they have been there over 40 years.
This place was special, spot on, can’t wait to return. Thanks for a great meal and a warm atmosphere.
I see the reviews have been great… here’s one more 👍👍“

“This place is our go-to sushi spot since 2019. We’ve tried almost every place in Fair Lawn/Ridgewood/Glen Rock but we anyways return here.Food has never disappointed - consistent and tasty. Our kids have eaten here since they were 3 and 6 without issue. We celebrate each of their birthdays here, including today!The service is exceptional and they make us feel like family every time. Wonderful place, wonderful owner - couldn’t recommend it enough.

Kid-friendliness: Very welcoming and accommodating. Warm environment.“

“i recently dined at this fantastic restaurant.The use of fresh ingredients was evident in every dish, making each bite a delightful experience. Best Sushi,sashimi i've had in my life.Definitely coming back!!!!“

“After a very long day, I came in get a bite to eat before I went back to traveling. The food is delicious. The staff is incredible. They will go the extra mile for you (literally). After ordering and eating entirely too much delicious food the couple who owns the restaurant gave me a ride to the bus station. The woman who served me was kind and kept me company while I was alone. Really one of the best experiences I have had in the entire state of New Jersey. Thankful for people like you.“

“excelente restaurante me gusto mucho“

“I never liked sushi and ive lived my life hating it. Until i continuosly tried it over and over again. WASABI did the trick. I absolutely loved the experience i had here with my coworkers. And the sushi was not only deleicious but it was also fresh. Not to mention the people that work here are wonderful.“

“Good local sushi restaurant with good variety on menu. Beat of. 3 sushi restaurants in Park Ridge. Good fish quality but not NYC fish 🐟 quality but also not NYC prices. Good value for your money and sushi cravings. Very polite and professional management.“

“We thoroughly enjoy Matsu Sushi & Grill. The food consistently impresses with its freshness, the ambiance is pristine, and the service is impeccable. My 13-year-old daughter adores the Izumi Roll, boasting flavorful chicken Tempura. Meanwhile, my 11-year-old delights in the Chicken Tempura dish, served alongside a crisp salad and rice. Personally, I find the Tuna Amazing Roll to be a standout, bursting with freshness and flavor. Alice, the owner, exudes warmth and hospitality during each visit, making us feel truly welcome. It has become a tradition for my daughters to request dining at Matsu, making it a top choice for family and holiday celebrations. I wholeheartedly recommend Matsu for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience.“

“Had lunch with friends. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was good. Definitely will go back.“

“Fresh sushi and excellent service!! First time visiting and dining as a customer from out of state on Sun Aug 5th, 2018. We were a party of 4 adults and one toddler. The three waiters were very attentive and with a smile. A varied menu with sushi and entrees. As appetizers we had miso soup, sunomono, and the sushi donut. For dinner, we ordered the special mango tuna roll, volcano roll, dynamite roll, and the sweet heart roll. All rolls were delicious, good proportions, and fresh. For dessert we enjoyed the chocolate moose pyramid and the 3 year old enjoyed the chocolate gelatto with a teddy bear made of white chocolate that was the highlight. She trully loved it jajaja! If you are around the area don't miss Sakura.“

“One of the best places for meal in Paramus Park mall. Teriyaki chicken is really good, the sauce has delicious flavor. Fried rice and white are also really good. Each combo has huge amount of protein and rice. Price of the combos are fair. They also have some sides dishes like dumplings, spring rolls and noodles.

Food is cooked and served pretty quickly, unless they need to cook a fresh batch of chicken. Condominiums are available in front of the store.

Parking: Lots of parking spots available all around the mall.“

“Enjoyed the Hibachi show and food was delish! Great experience for our kids first hibachi!!“

“The food was really good however the atmosphere was not that great. There was no white noise in the background and slight noises echoed through the restaurant.

The bubble tea was delicious and the sushi was tasty. The service was decent since there were only a few customers.“

“I've been a customer at Tuxedo Sushi for the past 10 years. Jay, the owner chef has created a restaurant where the fantastic quality of the fish is surpassed only by the artistry of the owner. 10 years and never once has the food been anything but perfect. A rare place where the quality of the cuisine and the service are always consistent.. Thank you Jay !!“

“It’s a small cozy authentic Japanese store! They have really delicious Japanese breads and food! I was surprised for their variety of food options. I bought rice balls(onigiri), melon bread, boba can and it was all really good! I remember that I tried melon bread in Japan for the first time 15years ago? it tastes same and so tasty. It’s a great Japanese grocery store if you love Japanese food :)!!“

“Place to go if you Love sushi!“

“Absolutely amazing! Go there!“

“I’ve been coming here since the mid 90’a and continued when it changed owners. The quality and freshness of fish is superb. They don’t skimp on roll size or fill it with crunch. You get fresh fish.“
