    C4. White meat Sesame Chicken Lunch Special
    Sarah P.

    I would definitely recommend this place to anyone - especially their lunch specials. Well priced and you get so much food! They even threw in a super cute 2022 calendar on a scroll with my order. It's hanging up in my room now! The food was really great, they had an option for white meat sesame chicken on the lunch special menu so I got that. The rice was nice and sticky and fresh. Loved the spicy girl roll and threw in an extra spicy Mayo on the side like I asked. Spicy Mayo is the key to my heart. Overall 5/5 on service & food - thanks Mr Shu :)

    Large mixed veggies

    I hate updating a review to lesser stars but I didn't have the best experience from Mr Shu's last night. Trying to satisfy my craving for Chinese food, I remembered eating here and it being great. This time, not so much. I got two sushi rolls which were pretty standard - no complaints here. I also ordered a green salad with ginger dressing. The salad was inedible- went straight to the garbage. Every leaf was rotten, if I could fish out one spinach leaf without it being wilted that would be considered successful. The ginger dressing was also off, way too much citrus. The Chinese food was very ehh too. The chicken with mixed vegetables was terrible. The chicken itself was so so so chewy. Not very good at all. The sweet and sour chicken was alright. We also got a wonton soup which wasn't good either. I don't know if this place changed ownership but they've definitely changed flavor and quality from the last time I ate here.

    Bad sushi

    We ordered 2 sushi Deluxe dinners which totaled over $60. This is how the tuna and tuna rolls looked. Not eating brown tuna! When I called they said they would replace it. Never did. Called again and they said sorry the fresh tuna is coming in tomorrow! No thank you! Never again!

    3. Szechuan Style Tofu
    Anshmeet A.

    Szechuan Style Tofu was very good. Loved the taste of sauce. It was not that much oily. Usually I always see Oily gravy in chinese restaurants. But Pad Thai was not good. I didnt like the taste. It was very dry and sweet. I don't know what exactly it was but felt like there was sand in it.

    R35. Sweet Potato Roll and R14. Shrimp Avocado Roll
    Jonathan B.

    We ordered Mr Shu via DoorDash. It was not a great experience as our order was delivered without all the sides we thought we had ordered. Via doordash we ordered Chicken teriyaki and Beef teriyaki. Both orders were supposed to be bento box style with mini spring roll, 4 piece spicy crab roll, gyoza, and salad. Also, I got the shrimp and avocado roll and he got the sweet potato roll. As I pull our food out of the bag, I realized we did not get any of the sides that was supposed to accompanied our teriyaki. I thought maybe the delivery person had forgot it. We called the restaurant and the owner apologized and said that when they got the order, he wasn't sure if it was just the teriyaki entree or the bento box. He had tried the number that was provided via doordash but it had turned out to the delivery person phone number and they did not picked up. So he decided to make an executive decision and gave us the entree. I can't fault him for that. The sushi was actually great and the pricing was very affordable! That I would recommend. The teriyaki was disappointing in that we didn't get all the good stuff from the bento box style like we thought. Putting that aside....both teriyaki were disappointing. The chicken and beef were both flavorless. Taste like boiled chicken drenched in teriyaki sauce!! We didn't even finish it. But I do want to give this place another try and hopefully we will get what we ordered next time. We did complained to doordash and they gave us some credit.

    Simply...a clean dining room.

    Stopped in here for a quick to go lunch with a few pieces of maki and nigiri nicely rolled, presented, and very fresh tasting. Their rice was especially good with just the correct balance of sweetness and sourness from rice vinegar. Fast, kind service rounded out this quickie.

    General Tso's chicken
    Rod R.

    Terrific tasting, authentic Chinese food for a small restaurant. We also got great service from our waitress and the food came in generous portion sizes. I recommend the Sesame Chicken / General Tso's chicken dishes, because it tasted excellent, was crunchy and was made with real chicken inside the dough. I had delivery from Mr. Shu before: it was on-time, the food was fresh & hot and extra items were added to my order free of charge. Moreover, the haters are also losing this rating battle by a country mile, with 11 positive reviews over 4... Bon appetit!

    I LOVE this place and am upset I never visited sooner!! It's right on the corner of the bell pike and Ridge Rd. Easy to walk to if you're local. Usually quiet so it might be more popular as a take out place, but they'll have some soothing music playing which is nice. Service is quick and friendly, and the sushi is so fresh!! This place really impressed me as I felt I was settling in regards to the quality of other places. They have a great lunch special which my boyfriend and I always get. Lots of options for kitchen/hot food as well. I have some pictures of the various rolls we've tried, some appetizers and soups and the sesame chicken my boyfriend has ordered. I think my least favorite was the edamame, it felt tougher so maybe under cooked? Not super salty either so a little bland. But we loved everything else so far!

    Miso soup. Does not come with tofu in it. Just the soup and seaweed and scallions

I made reservations about 2 weeks in advanced for 12pm and we lucked out with NJ weather and sat outside on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Because it was Mother's Day, they had 2 set omakase experiences to choose from. We decided to splurge and did the chef tasting. I couldn't even tell you everything I put in my mouth, but just know everything was SO fresh that the fish melted in your mouth. The owner Jo Jo came out to greet us, explained the menu to us, and even acknowledged the fact that the music outdoors was way too loud and he turned it down. He was extremely friendly and personable along with the rest of the waitstaff. The service could not have been any better. The sushi was SO fresh I literally could've eaten 50 more pieces if I didn't do dinner that night. I'm so happy that I was able to experience the tasting menu and told my husband we have to come back. The setting was intimate and small and it just had such a good vibe. Being outdoors on a beautiful day was a nice surprise. I can't say enough nice things about this place and the staff and the FOOD. I highly recommend Butterfish. Just make the reservation.

I know... sounds weird right but this was an absolute banger. Dessert? Went for a black seasame Gelato and boy it was an absolute closer to a phenomenal meal. Trendy and hip, this place is perfect for a date night.

They have an extensive menu with sushi, sashimi, teriyaki, noodles, soup, salads, fusion appetizers, etc. They even have some Korean items like bulgogi, sundubu, and bibimbap. Prices are reasonable. I called and placed a take-out order near closing time. The employee was accommodating, pleasant, and told me my order would be ready in 15 minutes. I drove over and was able to find street parking easily. The interior is casual and spacious, but a little dreary and outdated. They have exposed brick walls, wood tables, and hanging light fixtures. My food was prepared on time. I ordered: *Salmon Lover - 4 pieces of sushi, 4 pieces of sashimi, 6 piece roll ($20.50) *Tuna Lover - 4 pieces of sushi, 4 pieces of sashimi, 6 piece roll ($20.50) The salmon and tuna were fresh in taste, texture, and smell. Vibrant colors, firm and smooth textures, and delicate flavors! The sushi rolls had the right fish to rice ratio. The rice could've been more seasoned. The miso soup was warm, savory, and comforting. Not the best sushi I've ever had, but it did the job of satisfying my cravings. I would return to try their special rolls!
