The chicken teriyaki box is a great deal served fresh with fantastic flavor and came with so many delicious sides. I also tried a couple of sushi rolls and seems like you can't go wrong with any options. I haven't had fresh cuts of fish like that anywhere else! Definitely recommend!“

“One of the best brunch spots in Upper Manhattan! The Latin music sets the perfect vibe, the drinks are on point, and the food is absolutely delicious. The service is super friendly, making sure you have a great time. Perfect place to go with friends, enjoy some music, and just vibe. Definitely my new favorite spot. Highly recommend!“

“Great service and really yummy food.“

“I had an issue with an excess charge on my credit card for a take out order. The owner contacted me and investigated it. He refunded the excess amount and I'm glad they are on top of it. Great customer service and really wanting to make things right.
Overall, I enjoy eating here and I've recommended it to my family and friends. I have tried a couple of their dishes and they are popular for their handroll. Sushi set is also a must. The sea bass is my fave, it just takes a while to be cook because they grill it. My bf likes the hormone don. A good spot for those who wants to try korean/ japanese fusion dish. The take out box sushi set presentation adds a nice touch. ?“

“Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Wish we lived closer.“

“Yama Sushi is hands down one of my favorite sushi spots! The fish is always incredibly fresh, and every roll is beautifully made with great attention to detail. The menu has a perfect mix of classic favorites and creative specialty rolls, so there’s always something new to try.

The staff is warm, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. The atmosphere is cozy yet modern—perfect for a casual lunch or a nice dinner out. If you love sushi, you’ll absolutely want to add Yama Sushi to your list!“

“I would say this is the best Hibachi I have ever had! All are cooked from the top notch fresh ingredients. 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.“

“I’ve been over 5x in the past 5 months and they’ve never failed me. Staff and chefs are amazing. You must get the omakase (Lunch and dinner) or higher premium cuts because they source really really amazing stuff and you don’t want to miss out. The more basic common sushi is also great for more casual. And the omakase stuff that is truly the stand out ? high quality everything“

“Good food!🍱 a little bit dimly lit but it’s probably to make it feel and look cozy.“

“Great sushi! Always fresh! They always get my order right. Staff is friendly and orders are always ready within 20 minutes.I can't say enough about Oishi Sushi! I am never disappointed with my order! DELICIOUS.. Perfect neighborhood spot.“

“This is a truly authentic Japanese experience. It instantly brought me back to the ramen I had in Japan—comforting, rich, and perfectly balanced. 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.“

“Awesome atmosphere and music ….and the food is a “10” out of “10”!!! Delicious !!!!! The octopus is a definite must have!!!!!“

“It is with a full stomach and heart that I am able to publicly share how wonderful Blu Sushi is. Not only is the fish the freshest, but it run by welcoming and friendly staff, chefs and owners. It is not often that you find a restaurant without any criticisms, but then I found Blu. The dining and take-out experiences are how all food establishments should be run. The staff are clearly happy and supported which makes it, without question, a smaller establishment that I am happy to patronize. If you are reading this and considering ordering or not, just do it. You will not be disappointed with the high quality for a great price . Thank you Blu, for the amazing food and homey feel :)“

“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.“

“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!“

“Lived in the area for a couple years and this was my first time visiting this place. Absolutely loved it. Service was excellent but the show stopper is the food. I ordered Spicy Salmon Rolls and they were, for the first time, actually spicy. Everything tasted fresh and portion sizes were above average. Price was average for sushi in the area but I’m not complaining. Will be back for sure“

“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.“

“Sushi lovers heaven! IYKYK. This not so secret spot dishes out the freshest cut ups and inventive sushi combinations and prime sashimi at HALF THE PRICE! You heard me! NO CAP! Be it dinner for two or a larger party, this is the place to go that won’t break the bank. As for quality and presentation: top scores all around! Service is super friendly, courteous and fast. And guess what? It’s BYOB! #winning However, it’s first come first serve and really fills up on the weekends, so plan accordingly. Decor is no great shakes but not what you are here for. So sit back and enjoy the food of the gods served at Masago. You will certainly return time and again! Guaranteed!

Parking: Best thing to do is park across the street in the open multi level parking garage

Kid-friendliness: They truly take care of the kids here.“

“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.“

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

“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!!!!!! 😎 👍🏿👍🏿“

“Best Sushi in RIDGEWOOD , easily …..“

“This place is our go-to sushi spot since 2019. We’ve tried almost every place in Fair Lawn/Ridgewood/Glen Rock but we anyways return here.Food has never disappointed - consistent and tasty. Our kids have eaten here since they were 3 and 6 without issue. We celebrate each of their birthdays here, including today!The service is exceptional and they make us feel like family every time. Wonderful place, wonderful owner - couldn’t recommend it enough.

Kid-friendliness: Very welcoming and accommodating. Warm environment.“

“excelente restaurante me gusto mucho“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 very fresh ! Cute place too 👍🏼 BYOB ❤️“

“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 ?“

“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.“

“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 !“
