    Love the red rose

    What a fun location with very good teriyaki! I havent tried their hibachi yet and will certainly come back for that. I had been to the previous hibachi establishment at the same location 20 years ago and loved it but had not tried Kumo until today. I was in more of a teriyaki mood today so I got shrimp teriyaki with miso soup, salad & rice. Before we get to the food, I want to discuss the atmosphere! Beautiful flowers, red tulips & red roses, a stage with live instrumentation with red stage lighting, a bar with large LCD tv screens with adorable napkins with red roses in them. I also loved the 2000s rock music that was blasting during our entire lunch. Although it was a sleepy Sunday in early spring in the afternoon, I know on a Friday night this place is jam packed and popping. The manager confirmed the area near the stage becomes a dancing floor on Friday & Saturday nights which I will definitely be back for. Now, lets get to the food. While not the best Japanese food that Ive had -- Ill give those honors to Sukihana in Somerset and a Hibachi restaurant in Collingswood -- the miso soup was flavorflu and hot, the salad was fresh & the dressing was tasty and the shrimp teriyaki and sauce was good. There is ample parking and outside dining as well. If you like Japanese food and youre near 27, check out Kumo! I will be back for the hibachi, live music & dancing on a Friday or Saturday night!

    Kumo 27 has some of the most authentic-tasting sushi you will come across. Inside there are areas for hibachi, table and booth seating, and also private booth areas. The Texas roll is pretty hearty, as it has filet Mignon on top of shrimp tempura with spicy tuna on the inside, avocado, spicy mayo, eel sauce, and Wasabi mayo. The white geisha roll was very enjoyable with its spicy snow crab meat, eel, and peppered salmon.

    We went here for our son's high school graduation. Food prepared by Jerry was delicious and very entertaining. It made this celebration very special. I loved the chicken and shrimp and the sushi! We had so much food since the portions were huge and enough for leftovers.

    I really liked this place when it was Shogun. Since I was in The area We gave this updated spot a shot. We started with the Ichiban-style Duck Roll which was definitely good. We all opted to get the hibachi lunch which had generous portions even though it was lunch pricing. The chef was perfect and fun, and we all really enjoyed our experience there.

    We went to this restaurant for lunch for a quick bite on a Sunday and there wasn't any guest there. We were greeted by a hostess that led us to our table and noticed that the restaurant has a stage and equipment for performances, which was interesting. The first thing I noticed was that the restaurant was dimly lit during the day and, there was a musty scent that was a little off putting. We decided to stay and see how the food was. We loved the bench seating we got next to the window. The menu options were really really nice. I usually get a dragon roll but wanted to try a new dish with eel in it, so I ordered the geisha roll and lychee Martini. My boyfriend ordered the Texas roll with a blue Hawaiian drink. My martini was really good when I drank it through a straw, however sipping it at first tasted really watery but noticed that the flavor and alcohol sank to the bottom. The blue Hawaiian drink was tasty; not my favorite but my boyfriend enjoyed it. It took a little over 20 minutes to receive our food, which was unfortunate because we were the only ones there at first. We found out later that it may have been because the Texas roll comes with steak that's placed on top. I really recommend the geisha roll that has salmon and a non-seaweed wrap. It tasted so delicious and the presentation was beautiful. The Texas roll was unique. It was on the chewer side. If you love steak, I would recommend it.

    King Crab Meat Roll and sangria!

    amazing sushi and hibachi! the service is quick! Definitely recommend coming for a quick bite or for a nice dining experience!

    Sweetheart Roll and a Lychee Martini on the rocks!

    Love the food, the service, the bartender Alex, and the karaoke on Friday nights. Highly recommend!!

    I've now been coming here regularly for two years since it's KUMO 27. The food is always consistently good and they have a large selection to choose from like Sushi, Hibachi, Udon, Tempura, some Chinese and Thai dishes. I recommend these appetizers: My favorite is their ROCK SHRIMP- Every time I come to KUMO 27 I have to have it. I also enjoy their ICHIBAN-STYLE DUCK ROLL, CHICKEN LETTUCE WRAP, BEEF NEGIMAKI, SHRIMP SHUMAI, and PORK GOYZA. For an entree here are some of my favorites: TUNA & SALMON FANS- Sushi (4 pieces each of tuna and salmon) and a spicy tuna and spicy salmon roll, and Miso Soup and Green Salad with Ginger Dressing. SPICY MAKI COMBINATION-Spicy yellowtail roll, spicy tuna roll and spicy salmon roll it also comes with Miso Soup and Green Salad with Ginger Dressing. SUSHI DELUXE-10 pieces of sushi and 1 tuna roll, Miso Soup and Green Salad with Ginger Dressing. For Rolls I enjoy, CRAZY TUNA ROLL- Peppered tuna and avocado inside, topped with spicy tuna, spicy mayo, masago and tempura flakes. FUJI HANA ROLL-Spicy tuna, spicy salmon, spicy yellowtail crunch, with pink soybean seaweed. I have also tried their BEEF SLIDERS AND FRIES which I enjoy. I also love their BEEF UDON NOODLES If your into HIBACHI they have all different varieties. I've never tried it, but I know it's very popular, so I would definitely recommend making a reservation. My favorite area is eating by the bar. Alex does such a good job with bartending and making KUMO 27 signature cocktails. Again, this place gets crazy busy especially on the weekends, so be prepared to wait. The atmosphere is casual and friendly. Jimmy M does a great job with Karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights after 9pm. It's very popular and there are a lot of regulars but everyone is welcomed to get up and sing. Sometimes on the weekend there is live bands. This is such a fun place to celebrate a birthday or special occasion. Owner Leon is always running around making sure everyone is happy. Overall, I always have a good time here. I definitely recommend it!

    Hiro is an AYCE sushi buffet that also offers a la carte services. I have been here multiple times…read moreand can safely say that this is probably the best AYCE sushi buffet in the Central NJ area. Even if there is a wait, we have never waited longer than 30 minutes for a table. The service is very prompt and waiters are very good at checking on you and refilling your drinks, cleaning up your table, or asking you if everything is good. The food is ordered via paper and pencil, you select what you want and provide it to the waiter. They send the order to the kitchen and you receive the food when it comes out. For an AYCE buffet, the fish quality is consistently pretty good at Hiro. They offer Nigiri and Sashimi on the menu, as well as classic and specialty rolls. If I could suggest one thing it'd be adding hand rolls to the menu. The tuna and salmon here are consistently good and the yellowtail was surprisingly good. They have a bunch of different appetizers ranging from edamame, sushi pizza, to tartar, most of them are actually very good. The kitchen entrees are very good as well such as the kimchi fried rice and the Mongolian beef. Although it's not the most spacious inside, the way they set up the booths and tables it gives you enough separation from other tables to not feel super crammed inside. Highly recommended for an AYCE sushi spot in Central NJ!

The menu did improve significantly and they added an additional menu for All You Can Eat with some unique and delicious offerings. The service was friendly, fast, and spot on. The food was delicious. It's BYOB which is also a plus. Where else can you eat sushi like a king for under $40 a person.

The oreo tempura ice cream is interesting though and unique to this location. I wouldn't recommend getting any desserts, though. I'd fully recommend coming here! It's the best sushi in the area.
