50 Best Sushi Bars near Saddle Brook

“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!!!!!! 😎 👍🏿👍🏿“

“I was definitely full in there“

“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?!“

“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!!“

“Mikado sushi in Lexington Avenue is my favorite sushi spot for lunch! They have amazing specials including sushi rolls like Wagyu, spicy crab ans scallops! 4 rolls for $20! They also have hot food dishes. The prices are so great and what I love about this spot is the service. I highly recommend eating here. There is also a great selection of sake, cocktails and tea!“

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

“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!“

“I came to TAKEDA after a friend mentioned they were serving ayu, the delicate and seasonal sweetfish of early summer. I'm so glad I listened—it was truly an exceptional dining experience.
Ayu was beautifully prepared both as sashimi and in a light, crispy fried preparation. Each showcased the subtle flavor of this rare fish perfectly. Other highlights included a clear soup with a crab meatball, which was refined, warming, and deeply flavorful. The seared bonito was outstanding—lightly smoked with just the right char, full of umami. The sushi courses were all elegant and balanced, with every piece showing thoughtful attention to harmony and texture. TAKEDA offers a quiet, focused experience where seasonal ingredients shine and every dish feels intentional. I’ll definitely be back.“

“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.“

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

“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 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!

“What a crazy night! We rolled home… it was so much food. And it was all delicious. The tuna is super fresh and they were very generous with all the ingredients. Did not give a lot of rice with each piece. The rice was very well seasoned and delicious. What a good deal!“

“Exceptional goods/services from EXCEPTIONAL people.

It makes me very happy that this exists in a town/area that means a lot to myself and many others.

I encourage everyone reading this, whether you are in the mood for food, milk tea, or other treats, they have you covered here and with a smile and great conversations.

Bless the owners of this establishment that have spent their lives making the lives of others better via their hard work and tasty recipes!!!“

“The food here was fantastic — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The restaurant was clean and the atmosphere was lovely. Our server was incredibly kind and welcoming; truly one of the best dining experiences in terms of service.

However, our meal was disrupted by a group of unaccompanied children who were very loud, constantly changing the restaurant’s music, and playing with the volume to the point it was hard to hold a conversation. One even mentioned their dad owns the building. Another diner actually asked if they were ours because it was that disruptive.

I really hope the owner addresses this, because it’s not fair to the staff or the guests if the children are being truthful about coming three times a week being this disruptive. Otherwise, this place is wonderful and I’d absolutely return when I’m back in the area.“

“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!“

“Everything was exceptional - the service, the atmosphere, the attention to detail, and of course, the food. Three of us had the Chef’s omakase experience, and it was like watching mesmerizing performance art. A fantastic experience all around.“

“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!“

“Really nice people and excellent sushi! Cute little place for a date and its byob“

“Food and drinks were delicious and refreshing ! Dumplings were just the right amount of crispy and savory. Staff were extremely friendly. You can tell tell they take care of their restaurant and it’s extremely clean. Definitely recommend for anyone who loves sushi, dumplings or ramen!“

“We stopped into Omakase Shihou (also referred to as Omakase Shiro) for their lunch omakase, tucked away on the second floor of Tenzan, a Japanese restaurant. The intimate space, clad in light wood, sets the perfect tone for a relaxed and refined experience.

The lunch omakase is an incredible value at just $49, including an appetizer, nine pieces of sushi, miso soup, and dessert. We opted to elevate the experience with the $25 add-on, which featured an oyster shooter, A5 wagyu, and a toro hand roll. Each of us also enjoyed a glass of sake for $18. While the base omakase alone is a treat—beautifully presented and absolutely delicious—the add-on is highly recommended.

Every piece of sushi was fresh, artfully prepared, and included a few delightful surprises. The ikura, which I don’t typically enjoy, was so exceptional I ordered an extra—truly a testament to the quality. No spoilers here—you’ll want to experience it for yourself.

The meal concluded with a comforting akamiso soup and a refreshing matcha mochi dessert topped with arare, a perfectly balanced finish to a memorable lunch. It was a wonderful prelude to an afternoon at The Met.

We’d absolutely return to Omakase Shiro—excellent service, serene ambiance, and exceptional food from start to finish.“

“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.“

“Some of the best sushi in Manhattan Period.“

“Server Xin from Sushi Gama has set a high standard for restaurants in the East Side area! Our server, Xin, was the best part of our experience. Xin displayed wonderful customer service and is by far the best server we've ever encountered. A big shout-out to Xin! He was a wonderful waiter because he provided amazing service and was very attentive. He kept changing out any dirty plates without us even having to ask. We would definitely come back for him!“

“Great spot ...............“

“KaMe Sushi hit the spot. 🍣 Food was fresh, sushi pieces were solid, and the vibe was chill. Morea was my waiter and she crushed it—super cool, on top of everything, and made the whole experience easy. Good sushi + good service = I’ll be back for sure.“

“We just celebrated a special occasion at Sushi By Sea and it was outstanding. They made planning the event easy (even recommending a mixologist, drivers and someone who could make a cake). The service was incredibly attentive without being in any way intrusive. But the food and the Chef's presentation and description were the real stars of the show. The evening completely met and even exceeded our expectations and did not disappoint in any way. We will absolutely be back.“

“Honestly this is one of the best places I have been recently! I looked on a top rated place and found this one. It lived up to it's name! Sushi was fresh and delicious. We also had perfectly salty edamame and yummy mochi. They even gave us an extra one! If was a very calm place only sushi bar seating but YUM!“

“We highly recommend ICCA Sushi, always fresh, delicious and worth every cent. This is a BYOB restaurant if you’re interested in eating in. I usually pick up. In the past during COVID they use to deliver. I am not sure if they do now. Absolutely, incredible! You can go for lunch and dinner if you want!“

“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!"“

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

“I just found PJ Sushi in Fort Lee recently (first heard about it on Facebook), and I've already been back twice in one week. Their lunch special is PROBABLY the best sushi deal around. Plus, the owners are super sweet. I called in a pickup order today but ended up deciding to eat some sushi right there in the restaurant. My baby started fussing and I had to feed him, and the owner noticed and was so kind. She even walked me to my car and helped me get my takeout settled while I put the baby back into the car. It was just such a thoughtful gesture. Definitely coming back whenever I can!“

“I consider myself a bit of a sushi snob. IMO, Domadachi is the area’s best sushi and one of the top 3 in New Jersey. The staff is so friendly and they treat you like family when you’re there. The fish is always fresh and the menu is creative.“

“Got the Trust Me, and it was a 10/10. The only downside was that the seating was a little tight, which made it hard to concentrate. The prices are so reasonable for the quality very, very fair. Tip is included in the bill, which is fine. The only other issue was that we were told it would be a 20-minute wait, but it ended up being about an hour. Still, I’m not mad about it, no regrets at all“

“This place is a WHOLEEEE vibe 😍
The nigiri = buttery perfection, the rolls = flavor bombs, and that sashimi platter?
A literal work of art 🎨🐟💎
Fresh fish, gold flakes, and melt-in-your-mouth goodness 🤤 I’m officially obsessed.

“Always great food and service at Nizi“

“It's hard to find great food near Carnegie Hall that does not cost an arm in a leg. But looking online we saw how reasonably priced this place is. Little did we know that the place would be absolutely gorgeous and the wait staff would be so friendly, quick and efficient, despite being extremely busy. And the food was outta sight! Fresh and delicious. Definitely a keeper. I will go even if I am not on my way to Carnegie Hall!!!“

“Honestly this is some of the best sushi I’ve had. Very friendly, accommodating, and good service. But it’s the fish. Fresh, creative, delicious. We’ll be back again, and again.“

“One of the best quality sushi you can find I this side of coast. you can not miss this place“

“amazing place, we have a great dinner. thank you.“

“Great service, ambiance and amazing food. Simply the best!!“

“Wow!!! Family dinner of Chef Kevin Kim's omokase menu was by far the BEST we have ever experienced. Each and every piece created was a work of art with a burst of unique flavor from each and every mouthwatering morsel. It was like watching a master of magic and artistry at work as Chef Kim prepared each delicacy with expert care and creativity. To enhance our experience, Chef Kim entertained us not only during but after our omokase extravaganza with such warm-hearted hospitality and even created a special “birthday” hand roll for my sister. The manager also comp'd our mochi desserts which melted in our mouths. Hands down to Chef Kim and staff for gracing our family with a truly memorable and 4-star experience which is w shall never forget. In fact, we are already making plans to return in Dec to relive Chef Kim's Michelin star-worthy omokase and royal carpet treatment. From one very satisfied family, we are now loyal customers of Shumi!!!“

“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.“

“Dining at Sushi Noz was the closest I’ve ever felt to being transported straight into Japan—without leaving New York. The experience begins the moment you step inside: the serene wooden interiors, the scent of hinoki, the quiet choreography of the chef—it all feels like a ritual. Every piece of sushi is a quiet explosion of depth and precision. The uni from Hokkaido melts like oceanic custard, the toro is indulgent without being heavy, and the tamago at the end? Honestly brought me close to tears. It’s not just sushi—it’s an edible poem written with the seasons. Yes, it’s expensive. But every bite justifies the cost.“

“We decided to try this sushi spot under its new ownership—and we’re so glad we did! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the menu had a great variety of rolls to choose from. My daughter ordered the Udon noodles, which were packed with flavor and served with crisp, fresh vegetables.

The sushi chef even surprised us with a complimentary roll as a thank-you for coming in—it was almost too beautiful to eat! And to top it off, they gave us each a serving of mochi ice cream on the house, which was a perfect sweet ending.

The food, the service, and the hospitality were all excellent. Definitely worth checking out under the new owners!“

“Creative, fresh and delicious.“

“Sushi was ok, bot the best I’ve had but pretty good. There are about 3 tables inside and the staff are friendly but mainly interact with you only to take your order and deliver food. Water glasses sat empty and no follow up on how everything was for us. Will we be back? Maybe. But it wouldn’t be the first place that crosses my mind.“

“Food was excellent and our chef was very nice. However the waitress was a bit rude and rushed the experience. Asked us to pay the second we stopped eating because of another booking the next hour. The music also ruined the vibe, you’d think for an omakase experience, the environment would be better. But no, songs from
Katy perry and one direction were playing and just ruined the mood.“

“Our 1st omakaze experience & def not the last! I love the smallness of the place, it makes it special! Everything melts in your mouth! The best Christmas gift ever!“

“Great sushi! This is one of my go to take out sushi places on the upper east side. Their poke bowl happens to be really good and a great value and their rolls and sushi are also excellent. The fish is fresh and the service is great too. Would highly recommend for dine in or take out“
