“A friend and myself came across this gem by happenstance. The wait staff is incredibly kind and patient. The atmosphere was calming and the food is FANTABULOUS!!! I recommend this place for lunch and dinner. Whether it's just friends or a casual date.“

“Love the sushi never a dull moment and the owner is very friendly and Great service“

“Great food, great prices, great service!!! I will definitely be returning.“

“Great service , good attention and fresh food“

“The wait staff was very polite and patient. They gave us ample time to preview the menu. After we placed our orders, the food came to us pretty fast. Food was very good. And the presentation of the dishes were very pretty. I ordered the maki combo it was very good. Sorry, I ate some and I realized I forgot to take a Pic. So part of it was eaten. I would recommend trying out this place. It was a great experience. I want to go back again soon. They also offer take out. But I think sitting at the restaurant, the ambiance is real nice and having the meal there was a great experience.“

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

“Definitely one of the most overwhelming and beautiful places that I’ve ever been to try sushi in my whole life, there’s no way to describe how good it was.
We wait a little more of what we expected.
But wait was worth it food was fresh, homemade and delicious, attention it’s def a 1000/10 you feel that you’re in your home, my 5yo daughter mentioned that she was being treated like her grandma treat her (so you can have an idea of how good they were) well, not many words to add.

Definitely coming back even when I have to drive 21 miles to go there“

“Service and every dishes other than sushi was great! However, I really have to give the sushi rice they used and sushi selection limitation a comment because the rice used is not for sushi. Fish is really fresh, but rice is hard to chew or swallow. And selection for sushi is quite limited. The old menu they have has scallop and squid, none of that is actually selling any more. There’s basic fish sushi and all types of rolls tho which is nice, but rice really makes me hard to enjoy them. Despite all that, ither food choice is various from cold dish to hot fried rice to fruits and dessert. In general it is worth to try“

“Fresh raw oysters. Sashimi was delicious. Nice portion“

“I’ve been going to Rahway Sushi for years and can say the food is great. Check out the menu. Lots of great options.“

“Great service and food. The tuna tartar is amazing and is the best miso soup ever.“

“Nice little sushi place with great prices. My husband and I both enjoyed our items which included the chicken yakitori, Beef Negimaki, vegetable roll, wasabi spicy tuna roll and regular spicy tuna roll. We also enjoyed the fresh complementary grapes at the end. Service was extra friendly and attentive!“

“I love going here for my sushi! Probably the best spot in Bayonne I know so far. The tempura rolls always taste fresh and crunchy. The only thing I wish they had was more seating but I see it as a pick up spot. They also have a lot of Japanese snacks and deserts to try out.“

“Creative, fresh and delicious.“

“This is a brand new, recently opened restaurant and wow did they deliver for first impressions. Food was absolutely incredible. The sushi was fresh and made quickly. I had the volcano roll and the Naruto rainbow row, it was beautiful and delicious. Very good quality cuts and tasted fresh Really impressed by their milk tea as well. We got the original and Taro milk tea and it was fantastic. Staff was also very friendly and helpful in deciding what to order. Would definitely be coming back the next time I’m in town!“

“This is hands‑down the best sushi in Montclair. The raw fish is unbelievably fresh every single day of the week, and the owners are some of the warmest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. Their special rolls are actually special — creative, balanced, and consistently excellent. I recommend this place! It’s a true sushi gem in our neighborhood.“

“Cute place with convenient parking in the back — we had no trouble finding a spot even on a Friday night. The sushi rolls were large and packed with fish. We were pleasantly surprised with free strawberry mochi and two pieces of tempura at the end. Great experience overall!“

“Went here for the first time with my son and I am so glad we found this gem! When you step inside, you’re walking into a peaceful oasis filled with natural light, plants, and beautiful decor. You can dine in or take out. The sushi was so fresh and delicious! We also ordered fried dumplings and shrimp shumai. They have an awesome grocery section to the side where you can buy many Japanese snacks and ramen, as well as mochi. The service was fantastic and the owner is so kind. An absolute must go-to!!“

“This is a long time coming! I actually moved here years ago from Hudson County and I was on the hunt for good sushi. This place is it! I only have come in once, every other time I order on Uber eats because I’m lazy tbh. It ALWAYS slays, they do a fantastic job! Best sushi ever! I honestly make up reasons to order this sushi. Good hair day? Ohmysushi. Got out of bed? Ohmysushi. Just a nice day out! Ohmysushi. Fantastic work here, very tasty, fresh and clean. I recommend this place to my friends and friends who visit NJ, it’s a top spot for sure! Thank you for always being great! Even if I move states or locations, I might just get a flight to buy this sushi, or drive hours.“

“By far one of the best Korean Japanese restaurants. I’ve been ordering from Sea Shai since 2021/22 & the consistency of the food and customer service is always amazing! The flavor of the food is spectacular. I travel to Sea Shai to pick up my order because it is several neighborhoods away, totally worth the drive. The food is priced fairly for the portion and flavors you are receiving. Highly recommend trying this restaurant out. I cannot get enough of the Bulgogi with white rice platter, A M A Z I N G!

Kid-friendliness: Friendly environment, has big tables available for families who want to dine in.

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor, no issues getting in or out the restaurant“

“Had a great lunch here today! The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Everything came out quickly, and the team was very accommodating and professional. The service really stood out and made for a great experience. We’ll definitely be back for both the food and the excellent customer service! 🍣😊“

“Nothing beats enjoying the sushi at the restaurant but due to the covid pandemic and with an abundance of caution for safety the restaurant is takeout only. Regardless, Mr. Bin's is our "go-to" sushi place. We routinely travel from Union to Cranford because it's that good! The freshness is evident with every bite. The presentation of the sushi is perfect. I miss hanging with Mr. Bin at the restaurant and looking forward that once again. Especially his "special" selections that he surprises me with.“

“Food is really,really good, always fresh and the waitresses service is exceptional! We do the all you can eat menu because it's made to order and the appetizers are soooo goooood! The fried rice, Hibachi, tempura and rock shrimp are absolutely exquisite! Great food, friendly service at a reasonable price....what more can I say besides try the spicy Edamame lol!!!!!!😍“

“Hands down the best sushi in the entire Kearny area — nothing else even comes close.
We always ordered their sushi and sashimi deluxe and always blown away by how fresh, clean, and beautifully prepared everything was. The quality is always incredibly consistent — every single time we order from them, the fish is top-notch and the flavors and freshness are perfect. Even the miso soup that came with the sushi is great too.
Their service is also fast, friendly, and reliable.
We always finish our meal feeling satisfied, grateful, and impressed. They only offer take outs which is always readily available by the time we got there.
If I could give them 100 stars, I truly would.
Highly, highly recommend!“

“Love this place, been there 3 times. The lady server is always very accommodating and sweet to my son and us. Food is always tasty and fresh. My son loves the food here. Is a small place but thats the charm.

Parking: There plenty of parking around“

“Delicious, affordable, and very friendly service.“

“The sushi is great , fresh and delicious. So much options. Lee is a amazing waitress!!! Is just insane how she take care of the whole place by herself. The food is fantastic!!! I been a customer for 3 years now. She always helpful.“

“great food selection good quality“

“Friendly staff and quick service. Allowed us to bring our own beverages. Definitely will be back.“

“Had an amazing experience!
First time trying Brazilian sushi and this spot did not disappoint at all 🤤
The food was absolutely delicious—every bite was full of flavor. What really stood out, though, was
João, the manager, who took such great care of us. His warm hospitality and attention to detail made the whole evening special. The ambiance was perfect, too. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this place!“

“I stopped into this restaurant for lunch and when I arrived I parked in the plaza lot. I walked in and was greeted and sat in this cozy restaurant. I was served by Carol and she was nice. I ordered:

Bubble Tea
Eel Avocado Roll
Godzilla Roll
Hot Pot Beef Udon
Hibachi Shrimp w/ Fried Rice & Vegetables

I enjoyed the Bubble Tea and my favorite was the Hibachi Shrimp! It was flavored nice! All in all a good experience!“

“Nice ramen spot in New Jersey. The broth is rich and flavorful. Appetizers are good.

Would recommend the wings.
Pork buns are also pretty good.
Shrimp tempura are average.
Nice drink specials, and atmosphere“

“Good spot for sushi! I ordered takeout and loved the spicy California roll—finally, a sushi spot that gets the spice just right! The atmosphere looked inviting, with live music playing and a cozy dine-in setup. I’ll definitely be stopping by again!

The best part is you get a free appetizer with any order of $25 and up.“

“Family dinner will be repeated! My wife and I have come here on date nights and it is always nice. Today, we brought the kids and they loved it! The staff was amazing with them. The robot was a crowd pleaser. Great assortment, not pricey. We will be back soon. Thank you all for a great meal and experience!“

“I've been coming here on-off for about 3 years, I think? It's a lovely, quiet place. I'm rarely in the mood for sushi but from my occasional hunt, the bulgogi roll lured me here. And the simple atmosphere & excellent service made me come back again, and again. Although I don't have many pictures of my dining or pickups from here, I highly recommend the bulgogi or pink salmon special (seared roll)

Pictured below is my recent order of tuna tataki (seared tuna) and a simple rice-out veggie roll, with green tea 🍵“

“The sushi was absolutely delicious, and the presentation of the food was beautiful. The rolls were also really good, with so many varieties to choose from. I also really enjoyed the udon and the salmon bento set—they were full of flavor. The atmosphere inside is warm and inviting, and the wall art is fun and memorable. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming. It’s the kind of place I find myself coming back to often.“

“I had the privilege of being one of the first customers at King sushi in Orlando Florida amazing food. The vibe is so chill. It’s so nice. They have live entertainment and the ambience is top-notch. Had a great time. Loved being treated like a queen and I will be coming back!! I really enjoyed the dragon avocado that was probably one of my favorite sushi rolls and they had a really nice Brazilian soft drink that I had the privilege of tasting delicious“

“fresh... fresh... fresh... we love this place!“

“Not sure why I haven’t glorified this place yet because I literally come every week. I’m here to tell you to go there once and see for yourself how utterly delicious everything is. Service is amazing SHOUTOUT TO JOON who is our ROCKKKK over there. He always does a great job.

You will most likely have to wait for a table but it’s worth it..

Make sure to get the sushi with MIXED RICE it is a game changerrr. Everything is fresh and delish. You do get what you’re paying for. The yakisoba is a honorable mention. We always get the kani salad, avocado fries, and the koshi tacos so good. For sushi we get the “for two” special and order either the Watchung roll, JJ roll, or the Jersey roll all with mixed rice.. honestly been coming here for over 2 years consistently and never had a bad experience..

Love you guyssss ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“just delicious!!“

“The sushi is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and hospitable. Thank you Mike for being a great server today.“

“The food is always amazing and the staff there is always friendly and nice. We’ve gone there 3x already and plan to go back more. My son wants to go there for his bday next Jan so he can invite friends lol“

“Food was amazing will come again“

“Uff lo mejor en sushi! Fresco y relajante. 😁“

“This is our local go-to for sushi and hibachi. The food is excellent, staff is friendly and efficient. We mostly order to go, but the restaurant itself is small but cozy with tables and a sushi bar. I'll also add that, in 7 years of ordering from them, they have not gotten a single item on any order wrong. Definitely worth trying.“

“We love Ninja Sushi! It’s our go-to sushi spot in the area. The food is always so fresh, professionally prepared and the staff is super friendly. Try the OMG roll, because…. OMG, the presentation says it all! It’s where sushi meets comfort food. Delicious.“

“we appreciate p great place to eat“

“The food is top notch. From the soup to the sushi. Even the ice cream is delicious. What really bothers me though is the service. There is a 90 minute time limit which I get but when you are rushed to get out by an hour that’s not right. Also when you’re hounding tables waiting to literally take a plate because you have nothing else to do that’s a problem. Finally when you’re coming up to tables and asking them for platters back because you don’t have enough supposedly that’s not good either. Last night I was hounded constantly. Twice I had people tell me to move my sushi to my paper plate because they needed the platter. May I suggest buying more platters. Love the food and yes I know I’ll be back but the service was ridiculous in your face. Don’t come here for date night because they don’t leave you alone“
