Cool theme and very nicely decorated. Their employees dress to match the theme which is very cute. This is a great place for the entire family. There is a lot to look at everywhere and the people who work here are lots of fun. I loved my avocado cucumber roll and their desserts were delicious too. Will be back again. read more

Good Japanese menu, and a very kid friendly place. The toy food train (actually hard for the kids to it, because it is at the sushi bar area) adds a fun aspect to the overall train theme decor. Definitely the place for kids to enjoy and food at a level adults will appreciate read more

I give this a 5+ for service. They are so friendly here and definitely going back due to everyone here! The Choo choo conveyer is so fun, but not a lot of variety. It's a fun novelty experience but you will want to supplement with menu items. The sushi fish seems fresh from the few we tried. The udon broth was delicious and noodles cooked perfectly! This is definitely a place kids would enjoy. They have a cotton candy machine too! The detail to plates, cups, etc is very much appreciated. I do wish them much success it's a great family restaurant. read more

Incredible little gem of yumminess and fun! Owners Justin and Min are delightful hosts. Great fun decor with the Choo Choo Train counter and mini-houses as "booth" sections. Awesome presentation and equally delicious dishes. read more

First of all I don't like sushi. Figured I'd try Choo-Choo anyway ,due to good reports. There were plenty of choices that looked really good so I went for it. I had a bento box it was really good. the staff was Friendly and kept returning to be sure we were happy. Can't comment on the sushi, didn't have any. Everything I had was fresh and tasty. The train is a cute idea. This place is worth a try , go for it , you may be pleasantly surprised. read more

The sushi and sashimi were fresh and delicious. On top of that the service was beyond expectations they went out of their way to give us what we needed. There is a train that goes around at the counter so you can grab your sushi quickly and eat instead of ordering from the menu. This is a great and fun place for sushi. Very welcoming environment with great food. I will be going back and I highly recommend this place. read more

Choo Choo Train - Choo Choo Sushi Sashimi Combo. Artistic presentation. - Conveyor Belt Sushi Near Me - Leonia, New Jersey

This is the first sushi train shop (回转寿司) I've been in the States. Before this (and long before this) I've been to many such places in Hong Kong and Beijing. This one is different, in many ways. Food wise, they have decent rolls, probably the best rolls I have in the States (better than those I have from San Francisco (been to at least 20 sushi places), and is totally comparable to those in Manhattan. But I'm only talking about rolls. Their sushi is just so so. The sushi train is such an experience. I missed it so much from Hong Kong and I'm so glad there's a place I can dive into rolls without having to finish 8 or 12 pieces! The little train will have about 16 different dishes (2-4 pieces) for you to choose. And for hot dishes you always get them warm, not that when you work on the 5th it's already cold. 4 is a perfect size. The only thing I'd suggest is to make this train longer so that we have more variety. I really really love the idea: it's such an experience. I'm guessing the local people around here may play a role here on the existence of the side tables for ordering. If demand is high enough, I could totally see a full service at the bar (around the train) and get rid of the main menu. Just have everyone dine from the trains. Service is great. Everyone is greeted properly. read more

Choo Choo Train - Cotton Candy fun. "Sa-Zan Nim" (the owner) made it bigger than your head, always! - Conveyor Belt Sushi Near Me - Leonia, New Jersey

Highly recommended Japanese restaurant. Not only the sushi was so fresh, the train theme made our 4 year old dined without iPad. He rarely can dine out without iPad. Everyone is so friendly and attentive. We went for lunch so there was no train sushi. They made the train run with candies though and the kids definitely loved it. They were so excited and had all so much fun. We also loved the clean atmosphere. Food is good. Place is nice and neat. We will definitely return next time. Thank you for the awesome lunch. read more

Thanks to my friend Brian for suggesting this place. I really enjoyed my experience here and will definitely be coming back. I ordered a Dragonball roll and had 4 dishes from the train($4 each) and all were delicious. Had the rainbow fried ice cream to finish my meal and couldn't be happier. The service was excellent and the staff was super nice, friendly and really attentive. The place is not really big (max 40 people) so it feels cozy. You don't have to look everywhere for your waiter when you need something. Really dig the vibe from this place. The train is cool and all the little decorations around it are nice. It's well lit and the music was good and not too loud. I like the tables and the booths as well. Definitely five stars and revisits planned. It's a nice place to bring the kids if they like sushi. read more

I had a fantastic experience at this sushi place. My daughter loves sushi and she asked me to take her to get sushi. We were on a 2 hour drive from the turnpike and I was thinking of where I can take her to to get sushi at 8pm on a Sunday night. As soon as I got off the turnpike I pulled over and opened my Yelp app. I typed in sushi and this was the closest open sushi place, perfect. The place has a conveyor belt so you can sit and eat sushi as it passes you by. Great If you're super hungry and you want to eat right away. It's a train set and the sushi plates are on this long train so kids love it. The place was decorated very cool for Halloween and my daughter loved it. She's 7-years-olds by the way. I ordered the sashimi salad, a shrimp tempura roll, mini dumpling soup, and a California roll for my daughter. My daughter doesn't like avocado so I told the waiter this and he said sure no problem, they can make the California roll with no avocado in it. The waiter gave my daughter crayons and said she can draw on the table. The table had a big white piece of paper so they can take it out in between diners after someone draws on it. The waiter was a very nice man and he was joking with my daughter making her laugh throughout the evening. This place is very kid friendly and it's BYOB. The food came out promptly and it was all delicious. I will definitely return to this place with my whole family and a couple of bottles of wine in tow. read more

One of my favorite sushi spots ever! First of all the theming of the restaurant is so cute and nice. The staff is incredibly friendly and really makes you feel welcomed to eat there. The sushi and food are all amazing! I usually get the lunch special which comes with 2 rolls of sushi, tempura, miso soup (which tastes amazing!), salad, and an egg roll for a pretty good price! You can even get tea with it! read more

Wow, what a fantastic sushi place! Interior décor is very cute and fun. Came on a Monday night so the conveyor belt train wasn't operating but they operate it on the weekends. The sushi was some of the freshest I've ever had. Definitely put much care into the quality of the food. It is a little pricier than other places but I think it's justified by the quality. The owners are also super nice and chill. They have a cotton candy machine with nine different flavors. We got the blue raspberry flavor and it was very wispy. Not too sweet but just right. They don't have a private parking lot but there's plenty of free street parking. Owner said they're going to be adding some more special rolls and lunch special options to the menu so looking forward to that! Definitely recommend giving this place a try! read more

Highly recommend the salads, asked for two. One small things is that the soy square plate is little bit too small. read more

Had an amazing time dining here. Service is excellent and the vibe is so fun. The owners, Min and Justin are so nice, catering to their customers and so much fun. Menu is vast and there's something for everyone! From creative rolls, fresh sashimi, ramen, Korean food, yakitoti, fried ice cream, they have an abundance of different food items. The train is also so cool and really fun to watch. The Train doesn't operate all the time so I'd check before going if you're looking forward to the conveyor belt. We had 3 little kids with us and they really loved choo choo and can't wait to revisit. Min made kids chopsticks for them and encouraged them to finish their food for a surprise at the end. For their surprise, she made them cotton candy of their choosing which they absolutely loved. We really enjoyed Mins salad, all the rolls we ordered and the fresh live fluke. My 5 year old son loved his ramen. I'm so happy to see this new restaurant in town and hear about all the love and hard work they put into this place and wish them all the success! Thank you Min and Justin! See you both soon! read more

Great place for families with kids. Our kids had such a great time seeing the train go round. We ordered the white fish with scallions and ginger for them and they enjoyed it.

I will definitely order from them again. read more

Very cute environment, perfect for a date or for family dinner with kids! The sushi was great, had the Philly Role and Shrimp Tempura. Shrimp tempura was fried beautifully. We also had the chicken teriyaki and it was amazing! Decently sized portion, 100% your money worth! And for dessert we had cotton candy, fried oreo's, and fried ice cream. The fried dishes weren't overly fried like most places would tend to do, and the cotton candy was smooth as if it were a movie prop. All delicious. The staff were very friendly and welcomed us with open arms. Not only to us but towards each other as well. Nobody seemed like they were there just to work and clock out, but instead everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves. In my opinion, this is a big thing for most restaurants that people overlook, this shows the craftsmanship and care they would put on there dishes, and it shows. Will I be back? Absolutely, this is possibly my new goto spot. If you're debating whether this is a good place, I can assure you, you will get top tier service, and high quality dishes that are decently priced. read more

This food and the friendliness/hospitality of the staff instantly has made this place one of my favorite sushi spots. The staff were super flexible and tried their best to accommodate our larger group of 12. I would definitely recommend the Leonia roll, the LOL roll, and the KFC roll (my first time trying chicken in a roll, but it was deliciously reminiscent of a fried chicken sandwich). Also the unique interior was so cool and added to the experience. Will definitely be back on a weekend evening when the train brings the sushi around the bar. read more

Warm, friendly staff. They made a soup that had pork, we didn't know. We found out after served & although I didn't ask, they kindly made another one, free of charge, without pork. Exceptional! All the wait staff spoke to us kindly, warmly, made us feel welcome there. They checked back at the right times, said amusing things to keep us entertained with warm friendly smiles. The food was pleasant, I liked the variety the Choo Choo train brought. The place was nicely decorated for Halloween, on top of the usual Japanese decor. It was a very clean & happy, family friendly place. It was a great experience thank you. read more

This place a true gem in Leonia. The whole concept of having a model train carrying the food items around the bar is pretty cool. My 5-yr daughter loves this place for it. We always get the Salmon don and shrimp tempura. Salmon don is seasoned just right (not too sweet or too vinegary) and we find the portion pretty generous. The sushi pieces you can grab from the train are very good as well. Been a sushi lover all my life and this place hits it right on the spot. The owners and the staff who work here are all very friendly and welcomes us warmly everytime we come here. It appears to me that the owners know a lot of their customers by their name. This is a great neighborhood establishment with great food and vibe. Take your family here next time!! read more

The food is awesome & the restaurant is so cute. It's an experience to go. The owner is so nice and personal. She makes rounds to say hello and to make sure everything is good. I love their sushi. The sushi rice they have is something special it's so fluffy and yummy. Their fish is extremely fresh, I overheard the owner say she goes to the market every morning to get it fresh. Their chicken teriyaki, beef neganaki, Dumpljngs, shumai, miso Salmon are all great! read more

Choo Choo Train in Leonia, NJ a must go! The best Sushi - Sashimi ever! This new place will knock your socks off! The decor is magnificent and delightfully decorated with a running Choo Choo train by the sushi bar! The ambiance is very charming and you will definitely experience a very unique and cozy welcoming by the owners Min and Justin! To give this restaurant just 5 stars is an injustice! I would give them 10 stars if I could. The food is exquisite, as you can see from my photos, Min is an artist, she loves what she does! They offer a wide variety of mouth-watering items from the appetizers to the desserts, and their prices are very reasonable! It's also a BYOB!

Really charming with tons of options!! Really enjoyed the taste profiles of the 10 different sushi rolls we tried! Loved the crunchy rice squares topped with crab meat.

I have been at choo choo twice and picked up three times already, very much looking forward to the next time I get to go. Very very friendly staff, specialty rolls are amazing I have tried about 6 different ones and regular rolls are very good as well. When you order the say goodbye mother father they warned you! And right so lol start with level 1 before you jump to level 3! Delicious roll but I will stay with level 1. See you guys soon. read more

I'm ashamed it took this long to try Choo Choo Train, our dinner today was absolutely wonderful! The friendliest service, the freshest ingredients, and a fun, family friendly atmosphere. Rolls are presented beautifully and the plates on the train are a great way to try new sushi, let your eyes guide your stomach and you won't be disappointed. We also couldn't pass up the Rainbow Fried Ice Cream, and it was a delightful way to finish our meal. Convenient parking across the street, which is always a factor in Jersey it seems! read more

Choo Choo Train - The Leonia Roll - Conveyor Belt Sushi Near Me - Leonia, New Jersey

The aesthetic and ambiance was cute and lively right from the outside of the restaurant! The moment you walk in you're greeted by the cheerful and friendly staff and given the option of bar, house or regular table seating. Since my friends and I wanted to try the conveyer belt sushi, we sat at the bar. True to the name, the conveyor belt was a brought around by a cute model train which was entertaining to watch throughout dinner. For complimentary drinks we were given the option of hot tea or ice water. The tea they gave was really good, and the refills came in the cutest penguin thermoses. The food itself was really delicious. Our group kept fighting for the salmon nigiri that came around on the train for most of dinner because it was so good. The tempura was light and flaky as well, the batter did not overpower the shrimp and veggies. Other than the conveyor belt sushi (which was all good) we got the MF roll which was super filling and full of flavor. The salad on top of the roll was really addicting. Prices are a little bit high (similar to manhattan/city) but service, food quality, and atmosphere definitely did not disappoint. The servers were very attentive and funny. Ours had to chase me when we left the store because I had forgotten my bag. Even the bathrooms didn't disappoint. There were plastic one time use disposable toilet covers and the toilet paper holders were corgis. Definitely would recommend and come again. read more
