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.“

“Amazingly fresh sushi. Traditional Japanese restaurant with great customer service. Expensive but worth it; better quality than any other sushi place around.“

Vegetarian options: I'm nit a vegetarian but I did notice some obvious vegetarian dishes.“

Honestly, this is the best ramen I’ve had anywhere in the U.S., even compared to the fancy spots in NYC. It’s amazing to have something this special right here in New Jersey. With humility and simplicity, they’ve created something truly unforgettable. Thank you.“

“Great Korean food and sushi. Soonduboo was tasty and balanced, spicy pork bibimbap was generous and perfectly crispy on the bottom, eel and avocado sushi was tasty, and the agadashi tofu was delightful. Owner was a bit busy but very nice. Great evening.“

“Teriyaki One on Fordham is great! The food is fresh and tasty, and the portions are generous. The staff is friendly and quick, even when it’s busy. The place is clean, and the prices are reasonable. Definitely a go-to spot for teriyaki in the Bronx!“

“absolutely delicious service was great .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤“

“The Umami Bomb is exactly that. the bomb (1990). So good back to pre-pandemic portions and tasty ingredients. Thank God you exist.“

“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.“

“Accommodating service but the food- none of it was particularly good.Steak wasn’t the greatest cut or quality. Chicken was flavorful enough so perhaps that’s the star of the show. Tempura wasn’t comparable quality to other places in and around NyC at a similar price point. Ginger salad was decent, fried rice was mediocre.Unfortunately nothing impressed enough to have me want to come back but that’s as a non sushi eater so I leave 4 stars because this place seems highly rated by those who enjoy sushi and I don’t want to significantly impact their rating for something outside of their namesake.“

“This is hands-down our favorite sushi place! It’s an intimate, family-run gem where you can truly feel the love and care that goes into everything—from the food to the service. The sushi is always incredibly fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed.

Our kids love coming here too. The friendly staff always makes them feel special, and the free ice cream at the end is such a sweet treat they look forward to every time.

We’re so grateful to have a place like this in the neighborhood. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great sushi in a cozy, family-friendly setting!“

“Haven't been here in over a yr. The food was very good. The owner was extremely nice. We order several sushi rolls for 4, and she gave us a couple of appetizers on the house. The food was fresh and the service was good. Will most definitely be going back.“

“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.“

“This is the Best sushi restaurant. Jimmy is a master sushi chef. The fish is so fresh and delicious. You must give it a try you will not be disappointed. 🍣🍤🍸“

“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.“

“Was super excited to try some rolls tonight after a 12 hour work day, but unfortunately after 45 minutes of waiting patiently inside for them to be prepared they still were not ready and hadn’t even been started to be made. Staff not entirely apologetic. Asked for refund and won’t be back.“

“I feel a need to respond to the crazy person who complained about the bathroom issues experience at Hinode. The people that own and run, this restaurant could not be more accommodating, helpful, and generous. Your experience had absolutely nothing to do with the outstanding quality of their food and service. If you have enough time to write that completely unrelated review and post it. Then you should find the time to consult with a physician and address your own personal bathroom issues. Regardless of your situation, ultimately they were kind enough to allow you to use their restroom.“

“Enjoyed a really good dinner meal 🥘 at this restaurant - MATSUYA Japanese Steakhouse in Saddle Brook, NJ. I started off with an Avocado 🥑 and Crab 🦀 Meat Salad with Wasabi Dressing. Then a nice hot bowl of Japanese Miso Soup 🥣. Then went into that Entree - Sea Scallop Teriyaki with Fried Rice 🍚. Yes this place was slamming!!!!!!! Mentioned it to a guy I know and he said he went there for a meal with his wife. I guess they must be pretty good!!!!!! 😎 👍🏿👍🏿“

“Love the food, the attentive staff and the atmosphere. Entertainment on a portion of the weekend and consistently great food and service. Highly recommended!

Parking: Enough parking

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible as long as it’s not crowded“

“This is the place if you want authentic, high quality, Japanese food. The small dishes on the separate menu are really delightful.

Prices reflect food quality. Be prepared to pay for the best all around Japanese food in the area. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

They run it like fine dining, not like a casual sushi bar. So they have strict rules around noise, noisy kids, and cell phones. Don't expect to bring your kid and set him up with an ipad with the volume on. Seems reasonable. No outside food, no exceptions. Seems reasonable.

The servers were polite, no issues in this department.

A real gem of a restaurant.“

“Always delicious & enjoyable. My ‘go to’ place when friends come to town.“

“Wow, I’m so happy I found this place. We wanted somewhere that specialized in sushi, not just as an extra offering. This place delivered! The basic and specialty rolls were delicious and fresh. They also were so kind, amazing customer service. We will definitely be back :)

Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian, pescatarian and gluten free options.

Parking: Good amount of spots. There is also more parking in the back of the stores.“

“We like this place a lot! Delicious food😋,great service!😀👌“

“The BON bento box was hands down the best choice – everything was fresh, the evening with friends was so enjoyable, and I can’t wait to come back!"“

“We noticed a significant improvement from 2021 when we first ate here. Now it is our Favorite All You can eat Spot.

Sushi House in Teaneck redefines all-you-can-eat with its extensive selection:

Appetizers Dish I think was added recently. And it is a must order especially the Yellowtail Jalapeno and the Yuzu Salmon.

- **Sushi & Sashimi**: Freshness is key, with a variety that pleases from the classic tuna to the adventurous salmon.

- **Special Rolls**: Standouts include the artfully crafted **Winter Roll** and the vibrant **New York Roll**, each a fusion of taste and visual appeal.

- **Kitchen Menu**: Not to be overlooked, dishes like savory **Kalbi** and smoky **Yakitori** offer a delightful excursion from the sushi bar, adding depth to the feast.

**Sushi House** offers a comprehensive dining adventure, where the allure of sushi meets the warmth of kitchen-cooked delights, all under one roof in Teaneck.“

“Food is great and it’s truly Japanese, comparing to other counter parties i.e. the way sashimi is cut, miso soup and small side dishes. We ordered sushi regular, Hire Katsu and spicy tuna salad. All were good. No picture for spicy tuna salad because it was so good I forgot about it ?“

“such a lovely, clean, homely atmosphere and the vegetarian sushi is fabulous - we tried all veg varieties. appreciate that the dishes served are in ceramic and not melamine. small things matter.

Vegetarian options: the ramen broth is veg“

“The spicy ramen was amazing, the people were very kind to me, and I felt loved for the first time since my parents left me on the cold, Tony porch of the California fire station. It was thundering and raining and I crawled into miso for protection. They have raised ever since I am now Superman. This is my true origin story.“

“Best Sushi in Yonkers. All the rolls are absolutely fresh and decadent. The quesadillas are excellent as well. A fun mix of Sushi & Mexican. A must go to if ever in Yonkers. I even dare say it is the best sushi in the Bronx. They are located less than 1/3 of a mile from the Bronx border and they deliver to the surrounding neighborhood in the Bronx. The guy who took our order is very amicable. The sushi chef prepares the rolls right in front of you. It was a great experience.“

“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.“

“My favorite sushi place ! Not only do they service the most delicious rolls, they treat you like family ! Awesome cocktails and great atmosphere ! Check out the OMG roll or fiesta !“

“Thanks Nihon Kai for delivering my sushi you satisfied my cravings. This place has the most super nice staff., highly recommended. Their sushi is so good. Highly recommended this place to anyone looking to dine in around Bergenfield, New Jersey“

“Such a quaint little place. Food is always amazing. Staff is always hard working and welcoming. Very happy that I found this place. It is my number one go to when I’m in the area. Look forward to it knowing that I’m about to have an excellent meal. Small inside, but a good amount of seating for its size. This place will not disappoint, and will become your go to also.. A++++“

“Love this place! Bought my family for the first time and they were amazed at how delicious it was and there is parking! Definitely recommend!“

“Most review here are 5 stars and a random few low stars that seem to be fake reviews or people that happen to be miserable. I have been coming here for about 20 years and the quality of sushi has always been great and very fresh. The fish used for all of the sushi is always imported and prices have not changed. I have tried everything here and have not been let down. The owner is truly an expert sushi master from Japan.“

“PJ Sushi in Fort Lee is a hidden gem for sushi lovers! The freshness and quality of their sushi are consistently impressive, with generous portions that make every bite satisfying. The staff is warm and welcoming, creating a friendly atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. Their PJ Special Roll and Spicy Tuna Combo are standout favorites, packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, PJ Sushi delivers excellent value without compromising on taste. Highly recommended for anyone craving delicious, high-quality sushi in Fort Lee!“

“Honestly best sushi & sashimi I ever had in NJ. No joke“

“So, this is a very authentic place. The food is always great, and the atmosphere is just real. It still has a human feel to it because it is local and small, which is why we keep going. Thank so much to the manage (the actual owner), and the staff who brings such a real and loving feel to the eating experience. Food is always amazing...“

“The best Japanese omakase restaurant in town!
The food was very fresh and tasty. The chef made each dish right in front of us. All the sushi was fresh and delicious. The staff were kind, and the place was very clean. I had a great time and definitely want to go again!“
