“Best Chinese food in the area. I've tried others, but have been coming here consistently for about 10 years (they were closed for a bit due to a fire in the shopping mall). Call ahead for takeout and the wait time is never long. Great portions and the food is always hot and ready. Not really a place to dine-in; maybe one or two tables.“
“The food is great at this new restaurant on Amboy Ave. Good service and nice clean atmosphere. Highly recommend! The fried calamari, fish tempura and gyoza were especially good. I had the salmon hibachi dinner. Lots of food and really good and fresh!!“
“I'm a trucker and my wife and I come here every time we come through the area. We pick up at a warehouse nearby very frequently. We've NEVER had a bad experience here. The plates are always presented like artwork and the sushi and hibachi options are fantastic and yummy.“
“Their sushi is very fresh and exceptional! The fish quality was very fresh and their plating was pretty and clean. Sushi chef looks intimidating, however he is friendly and caring. He personally came out of his kitchen just to see how our food was. I love sushi and I have a particular pickiness with sushi. I either goto NYC or upper Bergen to get sashimi and sushi. They serve the real yellowtail and tuna fish! Their salmon and white sashimi meat and wasabi is different from all the other sushi bar/restaurant. I’ve so much to compliment about this sushi restaurant, let your taste bud judge my review, I highly recommend.“
“Best Japanese place in the area IMO.. so lucky to live within less than a mile! Tried the pork fried dumplings today and they were freshly hand made and delicious, the dipping sauce was like a sweet soy, yum. Their ginger dressing is so good we always get extra for our avocado salad. Favorite roll is the Golden Dragon! Don't skip this place. Also very nice owners and staff, every time!“
“We came across Empire Schezuan by googling one night, and never looked back. It is our go to! They are so friendly and accommodating (food allergy) on the phone every single time. The food is ALWAYS amazing; never oily or greasy. Everything tastes high quality every time we order. Delivery is always prompt, food is hot, driver is SO kind. I highly recommend this restaurant!!“
“Everything we ordered was excellent. The station roll is very tasty and the hibachi steak and chicken are amazing as well. Definitely recommend the money bags as well, perfect combination of smoothness with crunch.Kid-friendliness: Staff is very friendly, my kids love going there they got little panda bear treats to go.“
“I came across this sushi restaurant and it has been my go-to recommendation for family and friends. The service here is friendly and helpful deciding what is good to order. The salmon skin salad and carpaccio-tuna/salmon is a must try. Often times you try new sushi spots they can be skeptical but food quality and presentation is on point.“
“Used to be my go-to Chinese place a few years ago. Went basic with general tso combo to test the waters again. Food was decent. Portion and container shrunk considerably. Same shape but shallow. We notice. Overall not bad. Not sure why so many places just can't get this dish crispy“
“Best sushi spot in North Brunswick. Amazing quality, amazing prices, amazing service. They have tons of veg options and also have a great lunch special. Rolls are priced very fairly and taste amazing every time. My favorite is the spicy tuna!Vegetarian options: Sweet potato roll is great!“
“I have only ordered delivery here, door dash to be exact. Everything I’ve had here has been absolutely delicious. I’ve had the ribs, the shrimp tempura, pork fried rice, general tso’s chicken and chicken and broccoli. All were absolutely outstanding and that’s takeout! Imagine sit down. 5 out of 5 stars.“
“This is hands down my favorite local sushi spot. Whether you sit in or order take out, the food is always delicious. My favorite roll is definitely the yellowtail special. It has yellowtail, ikura and avocado. I havent see any other sushi place do this combo before but its def a must try. The ikura here is flavorful and the uni is also fresh! Service is great even when its a little busy. Definitely stop by if youre passing through the area and have a sushi craving.“
“My favorite sushi spot in the area. This restaurant is small, but the dim lighting makes for a cozy and relaxing environment. There's so many options on the menu (and pictures, too). I've been here three times, and each visit was great.“

“A nice little gem tucked away in the APA hotel. If you have a craving for Japanese food, this spot is it. (They had Fried Aji on their daily special the day I went ) I got their Salmon Ikura Don, Botan Ebi and Otoro a la carte, and their Black Sesame Panna Cotta. Food was pretty good, better than any Japanese restaurant in the main Edison area, but there are some little things to nitpick at. Some of the salmon was still slightly frozen (I went during lunch on a Tuesday), and I didn't realize some of the salmon would be slightly grilled. Thought it'd be all sashimi but that's my fault for not asking. I do wish that the veggies in the don came as a side salad instead of in the don itself. I feel like the veggies messed up the Salmon Ikura flavor profile a bit. The a la carte sushi were great! So delicious, but the Botan shrimp head came way after the botan shrimp body. Maybe their kitchen was busy, it's not really a big deal for me but I can imagine it might not be ideal for other customers. The Black Sesame Panna Cotta was not too sweet but I do wish the black sesame profile was a little bit stronger. Again, just me being nitpicky, I would definitely order it again! I will have to go back to try more of their menu items because they do have a wide selection of stuff I haven't seen elsewhere in Edison. Their service was impeccable. Something a really upscale place would have!“
“pricy, friendly staff, fast take out, had #14 TIGER ROLL, very good, excellent fresh fish but NO CRUNCH on top as advertised which is what makes this particular roll taste better. Piece of lemon would have added more taste so that's why I only gave it 4 starts., probably return when I'm in the area. .“
“I've come here abt 6 times so far and I've never had a bad food experience. I've had sushi from a lot of other AYCE, all you can eat, sushi places and I think this one is the best in terms of quality and variety. It's about $30 per person.The fish here tastes fresh and NOT watered down like other places I've been to. The miso soup always tastes good and fresh, it doesn't taste artificial and sweet like other places.The special rolls are a little questionable, there are a lot of special rolls that aren't my type and extremely filling but I like the sashimi and regular rolls. I love the salmon from here, so I always get salmon sashimi and Alaska rolls.They also have other foods available in their AYCE like shumai, sesame chicken, lo mein, and calamari, takoyaki, etc. Most of their non-sushi items are good too.ONE THING TO NOTE, if you come here with a party of 5 or more, you will be charged a 15% service fee. Coming here with 4 people or less is worth it when they all eat their money's worth.“
“Have been twice in the last two months and it has been excellent both times. The staff is incredibly friendly and fish is very fresh. Have gone for dinner on week nights both times and have not needed reservations. They DO have a full liquor license. They also have gluten free soy sauce available upon request. Would highly recommend!“
“Visited for lunch and just as good as I remembered. Had to get the Spring Breeze roll - love this combination and have never seen it anywhere else. The lunch box is a great deal too at around 14 bucks. The also have a lunch special where you can pick 2-3 regular rolls with soup and salad. We were able to find street parking out front but if you can't remember there is a public lot nearby.“
“Took a friend here for their birthday. Shared the spring roll and pepper tuna. The tuna was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. The rolls were just as tasty. My favorite is the beyond roll which is vegan. Had hot house sake that was made the food even tastier. Service was good.“
“I'm not usually a Sushi person but my cousin decided to take me on a lunch date to one of her favorite spots. We ordered the lunch special ( 2 orders of shrimp tempura, 1 order of crab roll) and we opted for salad versus soup. We also ordered a salmon teriyaki meal to share. All in all everything was delicious, came out quickly and service was quick. I love that it's also in a plaza with plenty of parking.I would come back here again to try other items from the menu“
“The food is yummy every time. The portions are fair, and the poke bowl tastes really nice with a lot of food in it, the chicken special is also a great dish and I highly recommend this placeDietary restrictions: Can easily be a low sodium meal“

“My husband and I went there this weekend for dinner on Friday. The foods was delicious, the staff was super friendly, and the portions were quite large (i was able to eat mine the next day for lunch). I got the steak terriyaki bento box and it was so good. Great local spot!“
“We ordered online at noon and requested our food to be delivered by 5pm. We received our delicious 6 dinners for Mother’s Day at 5pm from a very friendly driver who was an employee of the restaurant. The food was beyond our expectations. Highly recommend.“
“Their General Tso's chicken is amazing! I stop by there every Friday on my way home from NY and I love it! And sometimes I get delivery and they are always on time and the food is fresh and hot! I highly recommend this restaurant. And they have sushi too!“
“The best small sushi place in the East Brunswick area! The waitress is a sweet heart and their all very friendly. The food is amazing and the price is super great. I personally recommend the Bento Box or the large platter if you have a big party.“
“I've ordered from here quite often. Great sushi! I always get takeout and it's always prepared really fast! The sushi is always fresh. If you want sushi takeout, I highly recommend it. I never dined in so I can't comment on that but for ordering out, I love their prices and their food.“
“Since Covid this place has only become takeout, but it never disappoints. Food is always ready in a timely manner and the sushi is always fresh. I have not had a bad experience here, and the prices are very reasonable. My go-to Sushi spot every single time!“
“Staten islands best kept secret, the best in Staten island with some very creative new options every week and excellent martinis. Pistachio martini is a must try and so is the Avacodo tuna salad served in an Avacodo.. The service is excellent and so are the prices. Thank you Misaki, your the best..❤️?“
“This place had excellent food, the service was really great and they offer alcoholic drinks. They have an extensive menu to the bar, plus their food menu. The interior is spacious and they even had some beautiful details on their tableware and the seating. I would return here if I am going for elegant and higher quality dining.“

“I visited Kona Grill on a bustling Saturday, eager to try them out based on recommendation from a friend.The night kicked off with a mixed bag of cocktails; the New Old Fashioned, revamped with Jim Beam Vanilla Whiskey, was a delightful twist on a classic, boasting a unique texture that impressed me. Similarly, "The Rum Drink" was an excellent summer refreshment—light yet satisfying. Unfortunately, not all drinks hit the mark. The Electric Lemonade was overly sour, reminiscent of Warheads candy, and the Cucumber Southside was dominated by an overpowering cucumber flavor that eclipsed its mojito roots.Appetizers were a similarly varied affair. The Chicken Satay was adequate though unremarkable compared to Thai versions elsewhere, and it suffered from a stingy portion of otherwise tasty peanut sauce. The Fire Dragon Roll, meant to dazzle with its flamed alcohol-infused sauce, ended up a disaster as the sushi absorbed too much of the vodka(?), significantly detracting from its enjoyment and effectively ruining the dish.Main courses painted a more positive picture. Although the 10oz Prime Rib, which I requested medium, arrived well-done, it was still enjoyable enough not to warrant a return to the kitchen. The star of the evening was undoubtedly the Macadamia Nut Chicken—a unique and flavorful dish with a wonderfully crunchy macadamia crust and a delectable sauce that both my companion and I found exceptional.Dessert was a high note on which to conclude our meal. We shared a slice of carrot cake, a perfect balance of flavors with just the right amount of sweetness, and mercifully free of raisins—a common pet peeve. It might just be the best carrot cake we’ve had in a restaurant.Service was exemplary and even a manger stopped by to see how everything was going and comped the carrot cake for us for the birthday. The interior was fine but the window seat we sat by had a lot of bird poop on the windows when lookout. Just made a note on that.Kona Grill offers some standout dishes, particularly in the main courses and desserts, the inconsistency in the starters and some drinks could be improved. The venue has potential for a great dining experience if it irons out these kinks.“
“Been here a few times and food is always so on point. The special rolls, sushi pizza are all incredible. Given that it’s BYOB, makes it even better. If u r craving for good sushi, this is the spot to go. Get a bottle of mezcal as it pairs perfectly with some top notch sushi/sashimi.“
“Let me start by saying the porterhouse for two was cooked to perfection, the shrimp/calamari were so spectacular I could have ate two dishes by myself. The food was made even better by the superb service by our waiter Alexander. Next time I go here I will be requesting him as our server.“
“Like their sushi(especially specialty ones). Usually, do takeout. My last takeout was delayed for 40 min(first time ever) due to absolute "customer jam". Usually, they are half empty when I order, this time, they were packed, and there was a line waiting too.So despite huge delay - still 5 stars.. They provided me a small table after it became available, brought some tea while I waited, and even added some extras while being absolutely apologetic for the whole issue. Have no hard feeling whatsoever - guys really try their very best.“
“This particular Fushimi is my favorite. Food and service is always amazing.Drinks are delicious, sushi always fresh and delicious, place has a sexy ambiance to it. A must try is the sashimi tuna pizza and the K oysters. Presentation of food is always amazing.“
“Ordered the pork belly ramen and a sushi roll; the sushi was good to my taste (especially for the price), although I’m hardly a connoisseur.As for the ramen, I thought the noodles were decent, and the pork broth was extremely good. There weren’t a lot of extras—just chives, corn, and a soft boiled egg—but it was a really good sized portion for the price. The only real disappointment was that the soft boiled egg was in fact hard boiled, and the chasu seemed a little bland.“
“Randomly stumbled upon Sushi Saga after our first AYCE sushi option had a ridic wait. I had called and said there was no wait. We arrived and we were seated immediately. They had the usual AYCE sushi restaurant items- various sushi rolls, hand rolls, sashimi, hot appetizers, small plate dishes, and desserts. We placed our order of a few of the hot and cold apps and sushi and sashimi. And gave our completed order forms to the waiter. We loved the variety of the hot apps and omg they were all so good. The seafood medley was my favorite and it was served on a clam shell. Nice presentation. The crab rangoons were amazing with the Thai chili dipping sauce. The sushi was served altogether on a big platter. All were made to order and was so fresh. So delicious! Overall we enjoyed our meal and the food was great. Service was great and the entire staff was super friendly. We will definitely be back again.“
“I love yimo. Every time I'm here which is very often the service is amazing. Yes sometimes I can't u feest and what the waitresses are saying but it's okay. They make up for it w their amazing food. Sushi, delicious and super flavorful. My fave veggi lo mein and rice. Both a bit over oily but very good I get them every time. All the food other than sushi is equally as good. There's always good music playing and it's a homey warm vibe in here. I recommend yimo to anyone looking for a nice decent priced place to eat.“
“You can't go wrong with Suzuki. The sushi is always on point and my wife loves their Beef Negamaki! We do a lot of take out from there and the food quality is great as take out so I can only imagine how great it would be if we had time to dine in. Even though we haven't had time to dine in (we plan to in the near future) when I pick up our order the atmosphere in the restaurant is always so inviting. We will continue to order from this great restaurant and their staff is awesome!“
“This spot is BYOB. I thought that may be important to mention, although I always do takeout. I've had their teriyaki tofu and teriyaki chicken dinner bento box along with plenty of their sushi rolls and the food is always so rich and fresh. Their Godzilla sushi roll is very yummy as well. When I pick up my food, it is always ready to go and I never have had to wait. Highly recommend.“
“My favorite sushi spot in the area. This restaurant is small, but the dim lighting makes for a cozy and relaxing environment. There's so many options on the menu (and pictures, too). I've been here three times, and each visit was great.“
“Not sure what the low rating is about but i enjoyed my time at kuraService was good we got sat down right away on a tuesday and were explained how things workOrdered miso soup which came on a fast top belt which comes directly to table - you can also have fresh made to order sushi. Drinks come on a robot. It could have some lights or sound if you get too close i almost ran in to itMiso soup was a bit too salty. The sushi was good there was a good variety with some premium options and interesting flavors. Sure it doesnt beat the restaurant but remember you are paying for convenience and speed.Ordered 21 plates for two and bill was about $100. Didnt get dessert so expect to pay around 50-75 per person to get fullEverything is clean and the restaurant is well organizedPretty much everything is done automatically even the check. Tipping is not required but i did leave a small tip since there was some personal service.These automated restaurants are pretty cool if you want something quick and easy and if you dont want to deal with people!Download app for points - enjoy the future of dining!“
“I don't understand how they have the ratings they do. Their sushi and milk teas are amazing!!! The workers are quiet and to themselves, but they're not rude. They do an excellent job at providing what you need. And they're fast. I come here a few times a month. Def worth coming here!!“
