“The food is good I would come again unless they are super busy. You can’t blame them for taking long on your order since there’s not much employees. The restaurant is family run which is nice and the scenery is great. I hope the employees don’t stress too much!“

“Awesome menu, great vibes and really tasty food. Must try this place.“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?“

“Super Volcano Roll was excellent!!!“

“We happened upon this gem purely by chance. We had an amazing meal from A-Z (!!!) The sushi is phenomenal; sit at the newly designed sushi bar in the back and enjoy unique daily catches that come in through the connections the owner has with local fishermen. The restaurant is also known for their aged steaks, and Kobe prime rib, which we will try next time. I had the miso black bass and it was one of the best flavors with fish I have ever had. The broth had such a delicate shiitake mushroom flavor, which I loved. I literally couldn’t have had enough of this delicate, delicious dish. I could have had two orders and eaten it all! I think this dish epitomizes what the word UMAMI means. I also had the sautéed mushroom extravaganza, a treat for every taste bud of incredible flavors melted with a delicate sauce. My husband had their unique collection of sushi and sashimi choices that were all enjoyed at their stunningly beautiful sushi bar, complete with two young, passionate chefs who love what they do, and treasure their personal designs of the fish and rolls. All the rolls are presented in this great wooden cradle design, which I thought was so unique and functional. The owner was all smiles and genuinely happy to have had us try his new restaurant. I recommend it highly for either an exceptional steak meal (all are btw, so reasonably priced so order them for sure), or the traditional sushi. You won’t be disappointed. This will be our weekly go-to restaurant and we are counting the days until we will return, which actually will be next Tuesday the 9th! Bravo to the whole team at Umami and thank you for your passion for Japanese food, and for doing it right from A-Z. We will see you soon! Debbie and Gene“

“Everything was so good. No fishy or stale flavors. Staff were very friendly and very informative on all the different types of sushi. Will be coming back. The A5 Wagu Uni hand roll was amazing!“

“Awesome experience!!!! The freshest fish I’ve ever had. Shipped from Japan daily. Great place!!!“

“Ordered Shiso for delivery on Saturday night after reading some glowing reviews online and it did not disappoint - will be my new go-to for sushi takeout. Got the Chef's choice sushi and tuna/aji sushi and every piece was amazing and so fresh. Also got the spicy tuna crispy rice (don't have a photo) but would skip this next time, it just doesn't travel well. Can't wait to try Shiso in person!“

“I have been passing this over a while I have a craving for sushi I tell you what it was AWESOME!!! the staff AWESOME!! the service AWESOME!! if you like that cui·sine it's the place to dine or take out“

“My boyfriend and I wanted to try something new in the Northern Liberty area as we frequent the area quite a bit, and decided to give Yanaga a try. After just one dine in experience, it's become one of our new favorite spots to eat, and it's definitely on the restaurant rotation for when we go out to eat!

The place is very decked out with anime stickers, manga panels, and the like, while also playing different kinds of anime on the TVs they have on premise. I really recommend the spot, for just the food alone even if you don't like anime.“

“Excellent quality sushi. Very fresh and tasty. I told the server I was gluten free and she was knowledgeable...they also have gluten free soy sauce. I had the Treasure Roll (not on the menu but I saw it online), a Spicy Tuna Roll, and a Green Salad (Ginger Dressing was 10/10). Definitely a bit on the pricier side but worth it.“

“Fiancé and I stopped by because our other meal plans fell through. He’s had ramen before I have not. For my first experience it was absolutely fantastic! Tiny out of the way place which was cozy, sushi and sashimi were excellent and fresh, spicy miso ramen was unbelievable!! Portions were large as well so come hungry!! The young man that served us was very courteous and friendly! We will definitely be back!!!“

“Tuna Bar is one of my favorite restaurants! Especially love that cocktail with the gin wasabi & cucumber 🍸😍🍣“

“I had been eyeing on this mari mari restaurant awhile, finally had a time to try them out omg the inari was so good, the tonkotsu ramen was delicious but I maybe I’m alittle confused about small portions protein of the meat but the dishes was good and satisfying might go here with a friends next time ☺️“

“Absolutely highly recommend! Foods amazing, people are very friendly and attentive. I have had sushi about every restaurant in the area and this is my new favorite! Don't walk, run to Yu sushi! Let's show them some support so that they're around long into the future!❤️❤️❤️Love, love, love them!“

“If it’s your first omakase experience then you’ll like it. If you’ve had more expensive omakase before, then this one doesn’t really have the same experience factor. The quality of the fish was good but it was fast(less than 1h) and felt rushed. The sushi chef didn’t really explain anything other than state the obvious name of the fish. But it’s good for the price.“

“Well, let’s start off with the fact that the food here is amazing, so far, every single time I’ve eaten the ramen here with my girlfriend, we both were in for an amazing treat, the ramen is delicious and the broth is flavorful, and we also have gotten onigiri and spam masubi, both of which were also delicious, and the place and atmosphere are very cute and very cozy, not only that, the service here is often very friendly and sweet and welcoming, and they seem to really care about their customers and their experience, highly recommend! 10/10“

“thanks so much for taking great care of us we very much enjoyed everything! everything was very fresh !! loved it and will definitely be back“

“I am working my way through this entire menu and every dish I have tried so far is not only excellent but is actually impressive. Everything from the cold to hot food to the service is fantastic. This place is a gem“

“Great service and very delicious sushi.“

“The food is always good! Service is prompt and friendly! We love Yoshimoto! ♥️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“I think it’s my favorite take out sushi nowadays. Yes, we haven’t been served inside but we got multiple times take out and it’s pretty consistent and delicious! You know what is my favorite - it’s Tuna Hako Maki, it’s just what you want from tuna :) Volcano Maki is not what you think it’s better! Try it! Also my child likes chicken, so we get him Chicken Katsu and its generous portion and has sides, a lot of sides: miso soup, rice and sauce, salad too. It seems a good deal for Katsu dish. We tried other rolls too, so it’s good. Definitely will be getting again.“

“Been searching for good japanese restaurant for quite some time. Let me just say that Mikado far exceeded our expectations. From tge appetizers to dinner, it was exceptional. Our server, Michelle, was great. We had tge seared pepper tuna sushi app - so fresh and delicious. My husband had the hibachi with filet and lobster - amazing too. My son had the combo udon noodles - ate every bite! We had the tempura banana dessert - delicious as well as the chocolate mousse cake and coppa cafe. Amy at the front desk was so gracious and sweet. We will definitely be back many times. Give this place a try - you won’t be disappointed!!!“

“Popped in a hibachi lunch with my DW during the Sutumn Festival here in town. Excellent food, and the hibachi lunch is a steal at 16 bucks for the filet mignon. Not a typo, you read it right. A bargain. They serve it 11 to 3. It is pictured. Includes the miso soup, also pictured.

Friendly and courteous wait staff. The spicy yellowtail roll (pictured) was very good. The pictures do not do justice to the good presentation. The Wasabi kicked butt.

If you're in Moorestown for lunch, definitely give Akira2 a try. Great value for price paid.

Update April 2026...went for an early dinner and Akira did not disappoint. The Samurai roll is outstanding, and the hibachi seafood for 2 is a screaming bargain. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. You simply won't go wrong here. Important note: BYOB.“

“The ambience was very lovely and the food was very delicious.“

“Great value for the price. Whenever I go into an AYCE sushi place, you never actually know how good the sushi will be, but the sushi here was above what I usually expect from AYCE sushi. Nothing was lacking or disappointing - not going to be the finest sushi you’ve ever eaten, but definitely a solid offering, especially considering price.“

“Delicious and fabulous service!“

“Best Japanese cuisine around. Sushi made in front of you. Everything is so fresh and authentic“

“the suchi was delicious I'm sorry I'm so hungry I didn't take a photo the light vegetable soup and ramen was very good I'm Mexican and my palate is quite demanding I liked the experience. I told my husband I recommend the Japanese pozole !! mexican joke !!!“

“This was our first time going here and whereas we may or may not ever get to go there again I highly recommend it. The service was perfect the food was amazing and it was a comfortable setting. We actually found the place by accident, we were traveling and our children decided they were hungry so we just pulled off of the highway and found some place that we could all agree and I am so happy we did. You all did a wonderful job.“

“Their Karoke Room was Amazing! Definitely booking for our next Private Event. My family are huge fans of Sushi and the selection at Samurai certainly didn't disappoint. I'm a fan of the Tuna Lover. I can't wait to return!“

“Took my 5-year-old daughter for her first hibachi lunch. The chef made her feel very special. She really enjoyed the show, especially the volcano. I had the filet mignon and chicken and was barely able to eat everything. My daughter enjoyed the steak, and my wife had scallops and said that they were really well prepared.The service was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean too.All in all a fun afternoon.“

“Great dinner!!! Love this place. They are consistent every visit, all the staff is professional and awesome! Been going here for years and love it every time“

“Unassuming from the outside, but delicious food! Super friendly service, clean inside. Fish was fresh and all the rolls we tried were great. Great selection of raw and cooked rolls at reasonable prices. Highly recommend the sweetheart, shrimp mango, and green money rolls“

“My family and I have been coming here for the last 4 years. The food is amazing, ever. Single. Time. I have been to various Ramen places from Jersey, to Pennsylvania, to New York and I have yet to find ramen better than this place here. #1 .“

“Honestly some of the best sushi I've had in while. Prices are reasonable too! This is definitely my new favorite spot. Going to be coming here alot more! Don't judge this place by the way it looks or the location. Please come here! You won't regret it. :))))“

“I have ordered take out from Sakura several times and it always hits the spot. Because the restaurant is a repurposed Taco Bell (and still maintains that sweet 1990s Taco Bell architecture), it is incredibly convenient to swing through the drive-thru and collect fresh made hibachi and sushi.

One of our favorite dishes is the house fried rice, well made and packed with chicken, steak, and shrimp. Easy to share while trying a bunch of other dishes.

The restaurants pickup times have always been spot on, with our food being served hot. Portions are generous and prices are more than reasonable.“

“Had dinner there last night was so disappointed that they no longer doing the hibachi cooking at your table…over all meal was good (shrimp fried rice was very good) …our server Nicole was gracious & very attentive…would go back but would try something different…“

“We love it there! Especially our Vicky! Our Dee! All the sushi chefs and the owners! We love to see everyone when we come every week!! We have our favorite foods there and we are in Japanese Heaven!! Thank you! ARIGATO!!💃🎉“

“Great food! Convenient since they deliver!“

“I haven't been there for a long time. The indoor environment is still good, but the music is very loud, so it is not a good place for chatting.“

“Fav place♥!“

“The place is such a gem. The restaurant is small size but is nice clean . The owners and staff were very friendly. All the Sushi appeared were very fresh . Highly“

“The atmosphere was great. Sushi seemed to be good, although I didn't get any. Looked to be super clean and had a sushi bar with very vibrant ingredients.

We ordered the hibachi. It was ok. Not that it was bad, it was edible for sure. But it didn't come with fried rice, it was just white rice in a Chinese container. I was hoping for proper hibachi fried rice. The rest of it was good. Nothing to blow your socks off, but good. I would definitely recommend to people who aren't looking for a whole hibachi dinner and more of a quick lunch, but for the price it was a little underwhelming.

Again, the food itself was decent. But for the price of a hibachi meal I could have picked a few other places local that are substantially better.

Edit: the response from the owner was excellent and I've raised it to a 4 because honestly taking customers in stride with grace deserves at least that.“

“Delicious food from great people. Always ready on time and very satisfying.“

“Honestly one of the best freshest sushi in the area. They also feature some fantastic Japanese cuisine“

“Our server Martin was very attentive. We had the calamari app which was plain w goat cheese and we requested the spicy peppers on the side. The zucchini crab cake was amazing! The sea urchin pasta was also delicious and unique. I would go back here.“
