Japanese Restaurants near Hasbrouck Heights

“The staff were extremely accommodating and super sweet. And omg the food was to die for. So fresh and portions were amazing and the hand rolls and crispy sushi were also really good. Please try it out if you’re looking for an amazing experience! The best sushi in town!“

“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.“

“We ordered the lunch special with 2 regular rolls (eel avocado and spicy salmon), spicy tuna, and special roll (I forgot the name but it has avocado, cream cheese, shrimp, etc). They were all sooo delicious! I think we found another sushi spot. We love the decor in the restaurant too. It's a small place but so worth going.“

“Incredible food experience in a lovely space.Menu is extremely well curated, with excellent ingredients and surprising combinations.As a tuna lover, I found the Tuna Tartare incredible.Soy Butter Bigoli are out of this world.I can't wait to come back and check out the rest of the menu!“

“We started off with some tasty cocktails: A Japanese twist on a margarita and an amazing whiskey-based pink one (the name escapes me but it was truly unique and delicious. We had their rendition of a Caeser salad, which was enormous. The deep fried burrata was also quite big… and truly unique and scrumptious. I could have drank the cheesy broth all night. The fried hen was nice. The black cod was as well. The sticky pudding with lime ice cream dessert was massive, but the two of us managed. Also - get the potatoes…. A great compliment to everything.“

“Absolutely amazing food was delicious and the attention of the staff unique.“

“Very good definitely worth the visit if you're in Manhattan.“

“The best homemade udon in town , strongly recommended“

“Innovative Japanese food in a very welcoming space. Try the Japanese breakfast available all day which reminded me of Tokyo. The pancake soufflé is to die for and a must have. We highly recommend.Parking: Street parking on weekend easy.Kid-friendliness: Lots of options for the kids. Start with the soufflé.“

“Sushi onakase Shinzo best“

“This omakase spot does a well thought out 14 course that includes everything - from apps to nigiri to desserts at an affordable price. What I really enjoyed about Sushi Yolo compared to other omakase spots in this price range is how it’s nicely paced with your entire meal spanning 1.5 hours (other spots are usually churning out guests within 1 hour).As I said before, all the dishes were so well thought out and the pieces that were presented were so beautiful. My absolute favorite was their steamed egg topped with ikura and uni - it was so warm, smooth, and custard-y with the ikura and uni providing the perfect umami balance.As expected, service was amazing and Alex, the host, was so thoughtful to offer me tea throughout my meal as I was the only one in my party who was not partaking in sake.Highly recommend for a date night or a fun outing with a group of friends.“

“Best tempura in the US. If you want anything better you have to go to Japan.“

“Excellent service and food“

“Ramen is good ! Soup is good not so oily Yakitori good with Asahi Beeru !“

“This place was great - the fish was all very fresh, the chefs and server were all very kind and ensured everything was to our liking, and the environment was cute and simple.We did the 15 piece omakase for $120pp before tax and tip, which was very reasonable for the amount of food received.Definitely would go back!“

“Fabulous date night at Nami Nori. We both order the signature set which was phenomenal. Every piece was creative, so fresh and better than the last. We shared the tempura misto, wasabi cucumber tataki and the spicy tuna dip. The wasabi cucumber was a great choice and the green that we needed for the meal. Could have passed on the tempura. I loved the spicy tuna dip but my boyfriend said he rather grab more handrolls next time. We also got the mochurros and tbh, it's a pass for us. The WBurg location has a liquor license and the fun cocktails are not to be missed! Im not a fan of lychee martinis and my boyfriend ordered one off the menu and it was probably the best ones I've had. Attentive staff and such a beautiful venue. It's always so hard to get reservations but we saw plenty of open seats on a Saturday around 730/peak dinner, so definitely try walking in.“

“This restaurant was once awarded three Michelin stars for ten consecutive years and is also a representative of New York's fusion cuisine style. They primarily blend Japanese and French culinary elements to create an out-of-the-box and unforgettable dining experience.In 2023, due to disputes between the owner and the former chef, resulting in the departure of the ex-chef, they were removed from the Michelin three-star list, sparking considerable attention and comments from diners. From my recent dining experience at the restaurant, their removal from the Michelin three-star list does not imply that they no longer meet the standards of a Michelin three-star restaurant. Rather, it's because they are now operating as a "new restaurant" after reorganizing their chef team, which should be in a "grade pending" status. Personally, I feel that in the 2024 Michelin ratings, they have a very high chance of regaining Michelin star status, even if not immediately returning to three stars.Overall, this restaurant is highly suitable for diners interested in tasting fusion cuisine that blends elements from around the world, as well as for chefs in the food industry seeking new ideas. Additionally, the restaurant's service is excellent, even among fine dining establishments, as the staff seamlessly combine professionalism and friendliness. The dining environment in the restaurant is also excellent. Whether enjoying food preparation at the bar or having a more intimate dining experience at a table, both options provide a great experience.Here are some highlights of the restaurant's strengths:1. The seafood dishes at the restaurant are outstanding, with subtle seasoning that highlights the natural flavors of the seafood. Some small garnishes add a finishing touch to the dishes, akin to the layers of fragrance in perfume, leaving a memorable impression.2. The restaurant operates very efficiently, with each dish transitioning smoothly, akin to a symphony, where one movement ends and the next begins at the appropriate time.3. The service at the restaurant is excellent, with the staff knowledgeable about the dishes and beverages, smoothly and warmly introducing each dish, leaving a special impression on the diners.4. The desserts at the restaurant are delicious, whether it's pastries, ice cream, or fruit, all displaying creativity.5. The non-alcoholic drinks are excellent, providing a great option for those who do not enjoy alcohol.Furthermore, the restaurant may have some areas for improvement:1. The meat dishes at the restaurant seem to be less impressive than the seafood dishes, especially the wagyu beef dish, which is not cooked to perfection, failing to highlight the characteristics of wagyu beef.2. The sea urchin and waffle dish show great creativity in combining Asian and European ingredients. However, the waffle seems too soft and cannot effectively hold the uni; I almost dropped the uni while eating. Moreover, both the waffle and uni have a heavy sweet taste and soft texture, lacking impact. Perhaps replacing them with different bread and uni combinations would be better.3. While each seafood dish has excellent flavor, the seasoning and presentation seem somewhat repetitive, giving a sense of redundancy. Perhaps experimenting with more diverse elements and variations would be beneficial.4. The restaurant does not offer bread, a common feature in many European restaurants. Although bread may not be particularly expensive, I believe it is an essential part of French and many European restaurant cuisines. With bread, diners can dip it into the soup, creating a special dining experience and balancing the flavors of some heavier dishes.In conclusion, it was a very enjoyable dining experience. I hope the restaurant regains its Michelin star status in 2024 and continues to explore the path of fusion cuisine, breaking through the limitations of traditional rating systems and textbooks, and continuing to be a representative of New York cuisine and a unique restaurant in the world.“

“The food was wonderful and the ambiance lovely. The service pretty attentive and cheerful. But the desserts were overpriced and not worth it. Try the udon noodle with mushroooms. . yumm.“

“Made a reservation for a Friday night and had an incredible meal here. Honestly, I don't want to tell people about this... that's how good it is. My boyfriend and I both did the premium omakase, which was $68pp (hospitality included). Right off the bat, you cannot beat that price for omakase downtown. What's even better is how good it was. Highlights were the marinated tuna, medium fatty tuna, squid, arctic char, yellowtail and eel. The quality was really there, and it's definitely one of the best affordable omakase I've tried. Just an amazing meal all around. Can't wait to go back!“

“Wonderful and friendly staff. Delish food.“

“If you happen to be around Brooklyn and have about an half hour or an hour to spend, I would definitely recommend this place.It's close to the subway.This is a very eye opening place to visit if you are interested in dashi in general. The store has variety of dashi for you to try (also vegan options) and also allows you to create your own, which is super fun and educational.They have a lot of imported japanese products + meal, which could be a bit pricy; however, consider you dont have to fly to Japan to get them, they are acceptable and worth try at least once.The atmosphere is super nice. Nice lighting/furnitures and everything. The staffs were also super informative and could help you in a lot in making decisions toward unending dashi ingredients.“

“Excellent sushi!!!! Fresh fish. Amazing food.“

“Second to none! The ingredients are fresh and chef skills are world class.“

“The meal is fast, the food is delicious, and the links are elegant and warm.“

“Tasty, imaginative cocktails, great atmosphere, nice food.“

“We arrived to Kimura 10min before opening on a weekend and there were 3 parties in front of us in line. They opened on time and there were no issues getting seated, with no reservation, but we were seated in the backyard heated room. Our waiter and the staff there were polite and friendly. Everything we ordered was flavorful and delicious. Only complaint was I wish portion size was bigger. Haha. Beef tongue slices (5pcs) $14 - marinated grilled tender slices Yuzu Miso Salmon $15 - Includes fresh salmon sashimi topped with yuzu miso and sesame ponzu sauce, green onion and onion slices Hakata Motsu Nabe $27/person - Includes beef intestines, cabbage, leek, tofu, burdock, and sesame, chili sauce on the side. I would like to come back to try the of other nabe options.“

“The food was good. But I was sad to not have a lot of the rare parts mentioned in the nytimes and older reviews like the ovary with inlaid egg and the rooster crown. The rarity was what I was really looking for at this kind of price point. Chicken belly skin was one of my favorite yakitoris of the night. Seeing the cooking done over the grill was amazing. It was also a nice and lively atmosphere unlike other omakases establishment, which I enjoyed.“

“The food is really very delicious, with all types of meat cooked perfect . However, some parts are too salty, especially the seasoning on the knee overpowering the flavor of the meat. The services are perfect, staff are very friendly and polite. Very good experience.“

“Our 1st omakaze experience & def not the last! I love the smallness of the place, it makes it special! Everything melts in your mouth! The best Christmas gift ever!“

“I was truly amazed. i’ve been blessed to try many omakase locations around New York. This has made my top 3 list for a few reasons but most important is the atmosphere.Incredible cuisine is served in a home style environment. Everyone here is having fun and I think that’s a true differentiator in a space such as omakase. Thank you again Sushi Zen Family!“

“Wonderful service, fairly quiet room, perfect food.“

“Absolutely outstanding. I came back to NY without my husband just to eat here again. I was lucky enough to be able to get reservations in advance (crack that cipher!) and score a seat at the counter. SUPER pumped…I can’t wait to come back a third time!“

“Best sushi I have ever had.“

“Great food very good service“

“Every dish is creative, and it will make your taste buds feel different.“

“So happy that this place opened near me. I used to trek to Columbus Circle for good yakitori but now I can just pop in here- great food, cool ambiance, and terrific service. Their daily $1 specials are a steal! Will come next time during happy hour for discounted drinks as well.“

“Went with colleagues of mine, they were blown away by the entire experience. The food was inventive and the flavors melded wonderfully, each piece was unique. If you didn’t think truffle and caviar and foie gras goes with sushi, you are in for a surprise !!Shout out to Chef Lin and Nini, made us feel like old friends.“

“Went last night to page Ave restaurant. Never a bad time. Food is always on point. My nieces loves it“

“Unbelievable Sushi the chef was amazing“

“Fresh fish and great appetizers for a great price. Service was quick but detailed. I was able to get a table seat with a last minute reservation on Mother's Day which I was grateful for. The restaurant is small and quaint. I would definitely come again“

“I went to Kinzan omakase last night and it was so good! Each piece was very creative, like yellowtail pesto, which I had never had before but worked so well. My favorites were the Hokkaido uni, scallop, and toro with caviar! The fish were all very fresh. The server gave me free sake which I appreciated very much. The chefs were very kind and personable. This is my new favorite omakase spot in the city, I will be back!“

“What an amazing spot!! We had the 15-course omakase. Each piece was carefully crafted by Chef Frankie, and the combination of unique as well as traditional pieces made for a fantastic meal! The flavors were great, the fish was fresh, and the presentation beautiful. I really enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere, as well. Our server was attentive and we never felt rushed. Will definitely be returning!“

“BBF was recommended by my Japanese colleague and they said it’s really authentic with outstanding flavor. We were craving for Japanese Bento so we decided to give it a try.There were also pastries available but we are not into Japanese pastries. We had their Katsu Sando and Burger Steak to share. The Katsu was fried perfectly but the toast was a little dry. I preferred the juicy and flavorful burger steak.“

“Excellent experience the food was amazing. The service was out of this world. It was impeccable.“

“The best meal I’ve had in awhile! Thank you so much to the staff and chef at Domodomo for an amazing birthday dinner. We had the Omakase dinner and loved every part of it. Delicious, fresh sushi. One of our favorites was the cod with pumpkin puree. Excellent service from Matthew and nice vibe overall. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Teddy and the Shogun team are incredible! I booked a VERY important client with them and they took such great care of my clients, they were raving about the experience they had. I will be recommending them again and thank you for doing such a great job, Teddy!“

“Yesterday was our first visit to the Osaka Sushi Restaurant, today is our second visit. We came to the Osaka Sushi restaurant from Las Vegas to New Jersey on a trip. Their business is very good, We saw a lot of peoples eating sushi here when we be there. the owner of a warm reception for us, we came for the first time, gave us a lot of good recommendations, food is very fresh. The service is very good, the atmosphere is very good, we see someone's birthday, we are very happy. We'll be back!“

“Haven’t eaten this well since I was last actually in Japan late 2019 before you know what! Loved the Korean flavoured belly pork.“

“Their lunch specials are so good! I definitely will come back to try their other options. Miyabi Lunch: Literally was in heaven the entire time I was eating. The fish was very fresh and they don't skimp either. I had the eel cucumber roll with it and it was delicious as well. Their sauce is on the sweeter side but I like it. Two Roll Lunch: My friend chose a salmon avocado roll and shrimp tempura roll. Huge pieces of fish! MAKE A RESERVATION! They get super busy (as they deserve to be!) and walk-ins may take some time to be seated as it is a pretty small space. I had a reservation for 1:30, showed up on time, was seated within 2mins :) I also liked watching the chefs prepare everyone's dishes! Lots of love and work go into their food and it does not go unnoticed. Will be back!“

“Good deal for the price ($69) but if you’re looking for the best affordable omakase it’s Tsumo Omakase ($58). It may be the same owners but it’s a nicer space (although not as intimate), and has an individual uni course. Exact same 13 course sushi except Tsumo has an uni gunkan and Shinn has a salmon-foie gras-truffle nigiri.“
