“My boyfriend and I go here often, to the point where they kind of already know what we will order. They're always super friendly and the food is very tasty. I enjoy the teriyaki options but my boyfriend loves the shrimp tempura rolls. And you can't miss their Banana tempura or fried icecream!!! I would recommend trying it out for a date night!“
“This place was amazingly fun. The only negative was the wait. We had 6pm Reservations, but did not get seated till an hour later. Due to prior guest arriving late. They made up for it with two rounds of free drinks, and a few free apps. Once we got seated, the chefs were super fun and the food was good. Will definitely be back.“
“Love this place, we try to arrive before 7 because it gets busy and you have to wait for a table. The sushi is great and the employees are always nice. The price is about 43 per person including tax and tip.Parking: For large groups, it’s best to call ahead otherwise you will have to wait a while.“
“I love their Malaysia shrimp noodle, dying to have it every week. Their service are great, very friendly staff and if you go for hibachi, definitely ask for Andy, he is hibachi chef for over 20 years, he does all the tricks and magic and make sure you are happy!! If you like the ambiance, go in the afternoon, you will sure enjoy!“
“In the area for work stopped by for a late lunch and compared to the ramen places where I live this place makes me want to move the karaage was the second best I've ever had and the ramen was delightful expecially the egg which I personally don't eat at most places but happy i did here.“
“We love dining at Asagao Sushi. The food is excellent. The fish is fresh, you have a choice of either sushi or ramen, and the presentation of the food makes it hard to dig in cause it is so beautiful. The service is professional and attentive. Prices are very reasonable. Tonight we had a sashimi platter it contained 9 different fish! Each better than the next. And Chef Park and his amazing team shows great hospitality, they greet you on your way in and thank you for visiting them on the way out. You always feel welcome and appreciated.“
“Ever since my daughter turned us onto this place, we have gone numerous times. The place is small, however, warm and welcoming. a complementary appetizer is presented upon arrival. Besides chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant or bread it's rare to see an actual appetizer. I'm going to direct this comment to our fantastic experience last night Valentine's Day. As I mentioned earlier, the place is tiny. There are probably only about eight tables to begin with. When we arrived, it seemed to be the beginning of the rush. There was one table left, and we were seated. What followed was a crazy rush. Pick-up orders and people waiting to be seated. As busy as it was, we still received a complimentary appetizer and let me tell you the service was remarkable. They literally had a team of people working three sushi chefs, three or four waitresses plus a support staff of a young man. As busy as it was, the service was as gracious as ever. Our server was always smiling. In fact, everybody was always smiling, even though they were so busy. I have never seen so much activity. Where we were seated, we could peer into the back where most of the activity was going on . Our particular waitress was simply amazing filling Pick-up orders, ringing up orders as well as serving. I highly recommend this place It runs like a well oiled machine and you are never disappointed by the quality of the food. Added we even received a $10 gift certificate as a Valentines . We have become customers, and we travel all the way from Ringwood!“
“Easily the best sushi experience I’ve ever had and I will be returning. Servers were so attentive and also knowledgeable about everything I was being served. Great portions, flavors and everything was as fresh as can be. Came for lunch and will be returning for dinner with a bigger party.“
“The BEST restaurant in Ridgewood, NJ! Exceptional service from Xiao. She is amazing and have come back 3x to enjoy the food & see her again. The Seafood Teriyaki Combo is fantastic. They know what they’re doing here & they do a great job of it. Wish I could leave more stars ⭐️“
“We are local but never stopped in before. My wife and I, one daughter and her fiance came in during the week between Christmas and New Years. No one was sitting down but it was a little early and there was a lot of take out order activity the entire time we were there.Three of us ordered a total of 8 different rolls and some rice/noodles for my wife . I has the Crunchy Tempura Shrimp roll and the Cream Cheese roll with crab and I would order both again. Everyone enjoyed their selections and other then the noodles and rice, our plates were clean. My wife took what remained for her noodles and rice home as leftovers. We also ordered the Thai Donut to share for desert, based on other reviewers suggestions, and it was really good.Towards the end of our meal, another 2 groups came in and sat down so we weren't the only ones sitting down to eat. We will come back for sure to get items we liked and try out some others.“

“I recently dined at Hawaiian Japanese Cuisine in Hastings-on-Hudson, and it was an absolute treat! From the moment I stepped in, the warm welcome from the owner set the tone for a truly delightful dining experience. The sushi was a standout, crafted authentically and to perfection, reflecting the genuine artistry and passion behind each dish. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, showcasing the high-quality ingredients and culinary skill.Not only was the food excellent, but it was also reasonably priced, offering great value for such top-notch cuisine. The service was impeccable, attentive without being intrusive, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable meal from start to finish.I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Japanese dining experience with a friendly touch. It's a gem that truly stands out, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit!“
“We had the soup dumplings with the sushi entre combo. 3 and a baby. We spent 95 not including tip.Food was delicious, portions were filling, they had high chairs and plenty of spaceParking: Plenty of parking and a lot nearbyKid-friendliness: Family restaurant“
“Service - 3.5 wasn't very tentative Atmosphere - 3.5 way too loud Food - 4.5 i tried $60 omakase ku and it was excellent. I've been to really expensive omakase places and this was pretty up there. My husband had "trust me" and it just looked like regular sashimi. Their sushi was pretty decent. I would definitely come back for omakase. Byob!“
“I absolutely love this place! I've had sushi, rice bowls, yaki udon and soup from here and have never once been disappointed. Dining in, the service in incredibly fast with very nice servers and I swear my food is always burning hot after my drive home when ordering takeout. I highly recommend and cannot wait to order again soon!“
“I absolutely LOVE the food here. It’s immensely Fresh and the chef and staff really take their time and prepare a great experience. It’s hands down the best Japanese food in All of rockland county . Everything is very reasonably priced as well. Love this place !“
“Attentive service, Bottles of Sake & a mixed array of sushi! The first sushi restaurant that i been to serves Toro.Vegetarian options: They have vegetablesParking: Street parking and a parking lot across the streetKid-friendliness: It’s a kid friendly restaurant“
“We really like Masago! We've been ordering their lunch specials for about a year, and the food has always been fresh and consistent with reasonable pricing for the 3 roll combo. We look forward to it every week. Once you order from them on the phone, you can leave your food and payment preferences on file, so calling them and re-ordering is super quick. Delivery during lunch time is usually within 30 minutes, and they will leave the food on your porch if you ask.“
“Joy and her husband have an incredible restaurant and provided excellent service tonight. I have had sushi in many big cities across the country and have never had sushi this good nor had food presented in such a beautiful way! Go dine in, you won’t regret it!“
“Lower the Sinatra music, Mike, play Kitaro instead!Also, pls add sukiyaki to the kitchen dishes. There is only one place in Hartsdale that offers a mediocre version, sadly...Food here is great, so is service. Any of the maki rolls, nigiri, etc., can't go wrong. The fish tank alone is worth the visit!“
“I Love Tawara Mart. It's such a great find to have an authentic Japanese market nestled in the main street of Ramsey. They have just as good a variety of Japanese foods, snacks, & food ingredients. They even rival dare I say exceed in variety of Japanese goods from purses, toys, stickers and more. I once had a nice conversation with the store owner, I believe her name was Kiko; she regularly travels back & forth to Japan to get the latest and greatest from back home so you know it's legit. More people need to discover for themselves this great little slice of Japan right in the heart of Ramsey.“
“This is a real gem! Sooo happy to find such a good restaurant. You should go to this place and will never be disappointed, but will be amazed. I ordered 3 rolls - Hot Jenny roll, Christmas roll, and Viki hand roll. I strongly recommend all of these three - the taste was eye-opening (even more delicious than I could imagine in my life!) and I can tell this restaurant uses very fresh ingredients as well as doesn't cheap out on ingredients at all. I could feel the owner's and chef's honesty, professionalism, and kindness from the food and the service. I'm so excited to visit here again with my friends soon! My teenage boy said he'd like to give 11 out of 10 LOL ?Parking: Parking lot is behind restaurant.“
“I've driven past this unassuming place hundreds of times and I've been dying to try it and I FINALLY DID! I was pleasantly surprised at how fantastic everything was, including the service--and they even gave us a sushi roll on the house. Thank you! I wanted to try something different so we ordered a Hudson roll that comes without rice and it was too good. One of the best. Also ordered a roll that had bulgogi beef on-top, wow so savory and delicious. I think it was called the Hinode something...I know that's not very helpful--and it seemed like they were trying it out on the menu because they asked how we liked it. We loved it. The place is cute and small, service is speedy and you can see the chefs preparing the rolls. I think this sushi spot sets itself apart from the rest and has its own unique twist that I appreciate. I am coming back here for sure.“
“Accommodating service but the food- none of it was particularly good.Steak wasn’t the greatest cut or quality. Chicken was flavorful enough so perhaps that’s the star of the show. Tempura wasn’t comparable quality to other places in and around NyC at a similar price point. Ginger salad was decent, fried rice was mediocre.Unfortunately nothing impressed enough to have me want to come back but that’s as a non sushi eater so I leave 4 stars because this place seems highly rated by those who enjoy sushi and I don’t want to significantly impact their rating for something outside of their namesake.“
“I’ve ordered food for pickup a few times and was never disappointed. The fish is always fresh and the sushi is one of the best in the area without a doubt. It’s a small hole in the wall so it’s very easy to miss but PLEASE PLEASE GIVE IT A TRY!!“
“This cute restaurant is not downtown Ridgewood NJ.However it offers superior Japanese fare and is always busy with regulars and locals.The sushi and sashimi selection is great, they also have Udon dishes and appetizers like Yakitori ,as well as Teriyaki plates (chicken,salmon with rice), all very tasty.It can be a bit crowded on the weekends , its a popular place !The inside is a bit on the older side and if you make reservations ask for a booth, better than the tables or eating at the sushi bar (small space).They also have plenty of take-out orders on the week-end, so try to get in before 7:00pm to avoid lines.“
“Tawara is the hidden gem of NJ! I stumbled upon this restaurant during a road trip last year, and have made it a point to return to the area specifically so I can dine at Tawara again. This place makes the list as one of my favorite restaurants of all time. The pork buns are some of the most delicious things you will ever taste. The sunset roll, spicy beef and sashimi have all been fresh and incredible. Everything I’ve tried on their menu is top quality and taste. Raika is also an excellent hostess, bringing a warm and friendly vibe that makes you feel at home. Overall amazing and highly recommended!“
“Real NYC restaurant vibe inside. Perfect place for a classy date night. There is a Public parking lot near by, or very limited street parking. Service is amazing, food is even better. Full bar to enjoy beverages or sit and eat at. Ambiance is unique in the best way. I recommend reservation for evenings and weekend as it fills up fast. Easy walk across the street to coffee spots (day time) or a movie theater!“
“Fresh and tasty, nice portions and always unique specials on the menu! Service is very good too. However, don't expect a lot of ambiance inside though. The lights are too bright with worn looking decor and dingy walls BUT the food sure makes up for it.“
“I went to Tappan Sushi with my husband for lunch who is from Uruguay. He was not into korean, japanese type food but that changed it all when we first came here. I am korean and i need to have my korean food and japanese sushi, sashimi!!!Always great food and service is great. This is our 5th or 6th visit. There are 2 very attentive and friendly waitresses and they are always working. Super great people. Also the sushi chef, the same sushi chef when i go there always greets us when we come in. That is how it should be, greeting customers in a friendly manner. One big thumbs up, the food comes right away, that is the way all restaurants should be. Plus, extremely fresh fish and all the foods i have tried. Cant say enough good things about this restaurant. The Restroom is super clean,smells like fresh Clorox which means they clean it daily. The owner, i think is korean have the best staff and chef.Thank you Tappan Sushi!See you again soon!“
“Very good sushi and well priced. You won't break the bank. A variety of lunch specials all very tasty and priced to bring you back. 3 rolls for $12.95 is great compared to other sushi restaurants. The restaurant is small but very well appointed and clean. Service was good, nothing flip over.“
“Very professional chef, here provides very fresh food, the taste is very good, The restaurant is very clean. I highly recommend the sashimi here. Their tuna and salmon taste great. I love this place I have been for a lot of times, every time I got amazing food, I highly recommend this restaurant to every one“
“I super enjoyed this place. Ordered for pickup so can't speak to dine-in experience but the place looked nice enough when I stopped in. Looked like a regular sushi joint. We ordered the sushi boat for 4 and it was almost shockingly good. I can be a bit of a sushi snob and this place got everything right. The pieces were presented beautifully, cut to the right size/thickness - and the rolls were delicious. The only piece I didn't eat was the octopus - I don't know something about the texture just threw me. I think that's an octopus problem not a Yuki problem. We also got some appetizers like shumai and rock shrimp that were both fine. Not great. Wouldn't order again - but doesn't impact the overall experience. Price was right. Experience was on point.“
“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.“
“Love the food, the attentive staff and the atmosphere. Entertainment on a portion of the weekend and consistently great food and service. Highly recommended!Parking: Enough parkingWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible as long as it’s not crowded“
“We came here for restaurant week which was a great deal. You got an appetizer and three specialty rolls. There was a lot of different appetizers to pick from and the vegetable tempura was definitely my favorite. It was light crunchy, and you still tasted the flavor of the vegetables was. The pork gyoza was also really tasty. We had a variety of different specialty rolls. They were all good, not great. We had ginger ice cream for dessert which was outstanding and had little crystals of ginger in it and perfect ginger flavor. I would come back here and try some of the other menu items, Besides the sushi. The place is on a main road but never really noticed it. There is no parking lot so you have to park on the street but we didn't have an issue. It's also BYOB and the service was really nice and they didn't rush us at all.“
“Great menu selection for Korean/Japanese food. There is a large public parking lot with access to the rear entrance to the restaurant so it's quite convenient. The restaurant has plenty of tables and the service is good. The food is delicious and comes in large portions. Suggest you pay in cash for additional discount.“
“Ordered shrimp and filet hibachi and it was absolutely delicious, not even exaggerating but the filet was the best piece of steak I ever had, it cut like butter.... with a plastic fork. The shrimp had the fresh texture and tasted amazing. Will order again!“
“Each dish was packed with flavor and genuinely impressed me! Lots of creative touches like the creamy mushroom sauce on the gyozas, wasabi masago served with the ceviche, and the blueberry compote in the fried banana dessert. The tuna avo roll while simple hit the spot (rice still warm + perfect tempura crunch) and the duck paired with mashed potatoes was fire. Lots of unique takes on Japanese classics - memorable meal with no complaints!“
“For those of you who do not know me, I have been a waitress at Sakura Bana for over three and a half years. Normally, I do not really care about the negative reviews on here because most of the time they do not pertain to things I can control, but our most recent review from January 23rd is something I could not keep to myself.This review had some remarks about our price and quality of our food, which I cannot comment on. I have nothing to do with our pricing or the quality of our fish, so it is not my place to argue with a customer’s review. However, I was truly disgusted by the treatment of my good friend at the sushi bar.For those of you who come eat with us often, you are probably aware that one of our sushi chef’s is not Japanese. He is a very nice man who has been making sushi and serving it to customers longer than I have been alive. He is always efficient, fast, and kind to everyone around him. If any of us waiting staff forget to put an order in, he will make it within a few minutes at the highest of quality because he is just that good.This review referred to him as the “take-out chef” and said he was not a real sushi man. When the customer had asked me who makes the sushi, I had said this gentleman makes the sushi rolls and these gentleman (the Japanese sushi men during this night) made the sushi pieces. It was obvious with this customer’s tone that she was not interested in our sushi chef who made the sushi rolls this particular evening.In addition, when we continued to ask this customer if everything was okay or if she needed anything, it was very clear she did not want us to really talk to her. Our sushi chefs are attentive and kind to our sushi bar customers and all customers in general. We try to have conversation because as many of our reviews say, we try to keep this place a family friend, kind environment.I could see the sadness from my friend when he noticed the dissatisfaction of his sushi rolls that he made. I also noticed how upset he got when he understood that this woman was not going to give him a chance to prove himself. Her disgust for his sushi happened before he even had a chance to prove himself.I understand that sometimes customers just want to be left alone and enjoy their meals in a nice, peaceful manner, but after reading her review, I was truly disgusted to see my friend being treated as if he did not have the skill or the experience to serve customers sushi.I get that people have bad nights, and maybe this was one of them. I apologize if this woman feels as if we treated her differently because she was out by herself at our restaurant, that was never our intention. We always want everyone to feel welcomed and have a great experience.However, I do not care if my manager or anyone sees this and gets upset, I am not going to sit here and tolerate my friend being bashed and referred to as a fake sushi chef when he has been satisfying customers and making these delicious rolls for years. He has always been kind to customers, treated them like family, and always makes the experience for everyone there special. I do not appreciate him being referred to anything less than what he is by someone who did not even give him a chance. I truly do not tolerate any sort of disrespect to my sushi chefs the way he was disrespected tonight. The sushi chefs at Sakura Bana are friends to everyone, and the level of disrespect I witnessed tonight was horrific to say the least.To my friend, all your daughters and sons of Sakura Bana want you to know we see you as one of the bests. You always make sure we serve top notch food and really save us when we need to during busy nights when we forget some things or a customer needs something to go quickly. I hope when you read this, you know that we all love you and appreciate your hard work at Sakura Bana.“
“Best sushi I've had in a while! Everything is so fresh and the presentation is beautiful. Customer service is also phenomenal. They also have classic Korean dishes as well like bulgogi which was very well made (thinly sliced beef that's tender not tough).The sashimi roll was particularly unique and I also like the tricolor roll too with the tuna/salmon/tobiko on top in combination (forget the name of it). You can't go wrong with anything you order from here, every roll we had was awesome and the fish was super fresh and beautiful.Plentiful portions as well. Highly recommend!“

“cute little spot! relaxing space &nice smoooth music. I got a kani salad added some mango and it was very good. I had the Love roll, it was also really good! the soy bean paper had a little crunch to it, I enjoyed it. I took some stuff to go.. the udon noodles with chicken, spicy wontons, sticky rice with mango and fried dumplings all very good! the waitress was extremely friendly and tentative! will definitely be back !“
“Ordered sushi for 2 and some extra rolls today. As always, excellent service--staff is extremely friendly, and food comes out quickly and looking amazing! And it tastes even better, if you can believe it (and you'd better believe it)! Would recommend this place to anyone, whether you're eating alone, with friends, or with your family (like me & my boys). 10/10“
“Yoma Yama has consistently great sushi. My boyfriend and I love coming here. We’ve tried mostly everything on the menu and it’s always delicious. Great atmosphere and service. Their spicy Mayo is the best I’ve ever had. It’s the perfect level of spice and the consistency is thick which I like.“
“I am so pleased to find an authentic Japanese restaurant so close to my home. Those farther away on Oak St and Norwood have come down in quality over time. I always sit at the bar, and the chef-owner is so pleasant to talk to. Very reasonable prices and a great variety of dishes. I advise you against Eat all you want buffet since the fish is not fresh ... very disappointing. I order a different dish every time to order their entire panoply of menu. Service from waiter/waitress is warm and good. I highly recommend Hikaru Sushi.“
“I came here during the weekday for lunch. I chose the 3 roll maki lunch special ($14.99)l. They also have 2 roll for $11.99 the Lunch special's included miso soup and salad with that yummy dressing. All very good! There was a table with about 6 people seated just before me. I was afraid it would take to long to get my order but I got it a fairly quickly. I had enough time within the hour lunch break to casually eat my lunch and make it back to work. Service was quick and attentive. Lunch prices are fair and most importantly food was very good! This review is for the sushi only. Interior was a little dark at first,but nicely decorated, but it was a very hot day and the ac was blasting which was very welcomed. There's a flat screen tv on.I would come back again; lunch menu has many choices to choose from. Recommended!“
“We decided to try a new Japanese place. We walked into a basically empty place at 5pm Friday evening. The service was OK but a bit slow. The food was good and the prices were very reasonable. The atmosphere was ok. Not the best looking place. The menu options did confuse me as they had alot of Chinese food on it. They were very busy with take out so maybe that's the way to go.“
“Min Sushi is the best sushi restaurant I’ve ever been to. Everything is freshly made and flavorful and the rolls are well combined. It used to take a bit longer to order but with the addition of the new chef there has been a faster service. The owner is really kind and the staff are friendly. Definitely check out Min Sushi in Stony point. They’ve got you!“
“Always drove by it and saw advertising in our local Clipper but never jumped in until a few days ago. Three Asians cuisine, Chinese, Japanese and Thai. Had dinner with my family, my daughter ordered shrimp fried rice, my wife had Mei fun noodles while I ordered the yellow curry tofu. We all also shared sushi rolls, sashimi and hand rolled sushi. My curry dish was amazing just as good as if I had it at a Thai only restaurant. My daughter said the best fried rice she’s had and the same with my wife’s noodle dish. Plenty of different dishes to choose from specially if your family can agree on a cuisine. The service was great and attentive and the atmosphere was nice and mellow.Vegetarian options: Tofu or just veggies can be substituted.“
“I’ve always loved Maguro and they definitely don’t get enough hype. Their roll selection is so diverse, there’s something for everyone and they’re always delicious. On my most recent visit they also brought out a sesame chicken appetizer on the house! Love it here.“
“Absolutely phenomenal sushi. The nicest place, staff, and food!! Recently moved from the city and had lost hope in finding good sushi - no longer!! Thank god for this place!! May you live long. Shout out to the owners - if you should ever be on the verge of closing, please reach out to me. I now have a stake in your success and will mobilize in the event of your need.“
