Very decent sushi. I got the lunch special which was two rolls, soup, and salad…read more The salad was decent, not quite the addicting dressing I hope to get at a Japanese place, but not bad. The soul was typical miso soup. For the rolls, I got the Alaskan and spicy tuna. They were both very well filled and fresh. The spicy tuna was a bit too spicy for me, but that is just a personal preference. The vibes were nice, the service was fairly quick, no flash. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to go back but if I were in the area, I may return.

Amazing food, but felt scammed on the bill…read more I visited Sushi by Bou in Jersey city last Saturday night for their 17‑course omakase, which is advertised at 150 dollars per person. My cousin and I were genuinely impressed at first - every piece of sushi was delicious, the fish tasted fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. For most of the meal, it felt like a great high‑end dining experience. The problem came at the very end. The host asked if we wanted anything else, and I specifically asked what our options were and how much they would cost. I was told we could order any of the original 12 pieces à la carte, but when I asked the price per piece, the host hesitated and never actually answered the question. Then the bartender and sushi chef said, "Give them all 12 pieces. Run it back," in a way that made it sound like it was part of the experience, not an extra charge. At no point did anyone clearly state the price of these additional pieces or indicate that this would significantly increase our bill. When the check came, it was close to 700 dollars for two people who started with a 150‑dollar‑per‑person omakase and only had about a drink each. Every extra piece had been charged individually at full price, even though I had directly asked how much it would be. Instead of feeling taken care of, we left feeling misled and scammed. A wonderful meal was completely overshadowed by the lack of transparency at the end. All it would have taken was a simple explanation like, "Additional pieces are X dollars each," so we could make an informed decision. Because that did not happen, it feels like the upsell was intentional and deceptive. The sushi itself was excellent, but I cannot recommend this place until they are honest and upfront about pricing for add‑ons and do a better job of respecting their customers. Transparency matters just as much as good food.

I think this omakase experience is very intimate and the food was so good! We did the 17 course omakase and I think it was $100. It also came with sake.

I also love the speakeasy vibes here. Super cute for a date night! I will definitely try to go to other Sushi by Bou locations in the future.

We got the three special roll deal that came with dumpling soup for free on Uber…read more The three special rolls were pretty selected which was a shame, it would have been preferable to pick. The three rolls were the Angry Shrimp, Salmon Lovers, and Samurai. The dumplings in the dumpling soup were actually shumai. The salmon Lovers roll was by far our favorite. The mango chili sauce on top was an amazing addition. The samurai roll was fine. Very tuna-y. I just dont like tuna enough to appreciate this one as much but if you do love tuna you'd love this one. The Angry Shrimp roll was weird. It tasted decent, but was just very wet. I think they just drowned it in too much sauce. And the shumai in the soup was a pleasant surprise for me because I love shumai, but my partner doesn't so he wa disappointed with that. The soup does not say that the dumplings are shumai in the description. Overall, we were impressed. We dont normally get special rolls, but we decided to splurge tonight and mostly were not disappointed. Would return.

Saka has a solid offer of Any 3 Rolls for ~$20. Their selection of rolls is more limiting than other places; would love if they had yellowtail or scallop as options at lunch. Nonetheless, the rolls I got were solid! The fish was fresh and the portion was great, the rice layer wasn't thick at all which is a big factor for me, and to my surprise, it came with both a miso soup & salad. The miso soup was pretty flavorful compared to others I've had and the salad came with a sesame dressing that was so refreshing with the crisp salad. I should've kept my order at that as the Crispy Spicy Salmon wasn't worth it. The crispy rice was slightly too hard/over-fried and the portion of spicy salmon was so tiny. The rice layer should be fully topped with salmon, unlike what they gave. It didn't taste half bad but I'd probably skip it next time. If you order for delivery, their insulated packaging is great for transport and temperature control. Solid try!

We chose the salmon avocado, spicy tuna, and Philadelphia rolls. And we got it with the salad. The salad dressing was amazing, definitely up there with the best of the Japanese salad dressings. The rolls were great as well. Very stuffed with not too much rice and tasted very fresh. The spicy tuna maki was a little spicy for me but not anything crazy. We also got crab rangoons and those were also fantastic. Also very stuffed and sweet. And the sauce they came with was a little spicy, very good too. Overall, very impressed with our first dine out in Hoboken. We will definitely be back.

Amazing quality Omakase!…read more Nigiri is located inside Honshu in Jersey City. Think of Nigiri the Omakase part of Honshu. Honshu's menu on it's own is really good so I wanted to try their Omakase and boy they did not disappoint. This was the most Uni I've had in an Omakase. The quality of the sushi was so good. It competes and if not beats some of the Omakase found in NYC. The only downside was I was not able to join the tabletop for the Omakase service but sat on a table nearby. This was a last minute decision and the Omakase table was fully booked. This falls on me. However, this Omakase was the longest I have experienced. It was nearly 2 hours. I found myself just sitting there waiting for the next course. I don't know if this was due to me sitting at regular table vs the Omakase tabletop, but I wish there was more flow. Although it was a long dinner, the food outweighed it all.
