    Lobster roll, spicy salmon, shrimp roll, shrimp and avocado roll
    Rena Z.

    Excellent sushi, fast and pleasant service, homey ambiance. I go to Sushi You often whenever I'm in need of a quick bite of sushi. They have never let me down. 10/10 recommend.

    Really wanted to love this place but it fell short for me. The prices are phenomenal. I paid 45 dollars for 7 rolls - including special rolls. The staff was also super friendly over the phone and at pick up. However, the sushi wasn't that great. Didn't leave me wanting to come back for more. To start, the rolls are tiny. There's not much rice to them. I found that two of my seven rolls had harder rice, which wasn't to appetizing. The other five rolls with softer rice were better. Overall - it's fine to try if you're on a budget. But it wouldn't be a place I go to regularly. I rather pay a little more to get bigger rolls with more rice (&fresh rice).

    Delivery Order - One of the worst Sushi that I have had, nothing like the description. Lobster Roll was especially awful with meat so tough that I could barely chew. Spring Roll appetizer was pretty good though.

    One of the better sushi spots in the area. Prices are the lowest of all other sushi spots in the area (Koshi, Ninja, Aki, Sea Shea) but portion sizes are also smaller!! Sushi is always fresh as more people order from here probably due to the lower prices. Portion sizes also vary depending on the day of the week you order (refer to pictures of same salmon lover order placed on two different nights, you can visibly see one of the orders is 25 percent smaller than the other). I wouldn't order sashimi again from this restaurant, the pieces are half the size of other restaurants. Sad to say this but NYC has cheaper and better prices for sushi than any place I've been to in NJ...

    S Snow Mountain Roll  H Happy Roll

    Fresh good sushi omg Snow roll Happy roll. Super tasty Not a huge sushi fan, never have been but omg I love some cooked sushi and this place is amazing

    Snow mountain, wonderful, spicy tuna
    Alison K.

    Believe it or not, this is our favorite sushi spot. Located off the beaten path, it is never very busy when we go and seems like they get more takeout then dine-in. We hardly ever deviate from the same sushi rolls! Snow Mountain (crab and shrimp tempura), Crazy Lobster (lobster with crab), and Wonderful (shrimp tempura with mango on top), and classic spicy tuna. The combinations are great and they don't even need soy sauce or spicy mayo. We sit and eat in silence - a true sign that the food is delicious! Unfortunately we dont live nearby anymore so it's always a treat when we make it over!

    The sushi is good to however the delivery service is absolutely horrendous from my pov. And one of the rolls had darkened fish.
    Ashad T.

    I usually go here and have a very good experience HOWEVER, ordering for delivery was different as even though the food was good as usual the delivery driver LITERALLY demanded me to give him a tip on an almost 40 dollar order on top of the delivery fee. 3 or 2 don't know. First time in my life and NEVER EVER AGAIN!

    I got the wonderful roll, kiwi vegetable roll, and California roll. All were incredible, especially the kiwi vegetable and wonderful rolls (has mangos). I also had the sushi sandwich, which has layers of tuna, eel, avocado, tobiko, and Alaskan snow crab. They were fresh and delicious. Delivery came on time.

    I am a bit of a sushi fiend, and this is the best place to go on a budget. The sushi is 50% every day and the food is still quality! The place is usually fairly quiet when I eat in and service is always super friendly and tentative. I don't eat fish anymore and I usually opt for the vegetable and sweet potato rolls, and they're even willing to let you customize a bit if something isn't on the menu (mango avocado is now one of my favorites). Overall, it's nice to have a tasty sushi location that doesn't hurt the wallet!

    Snow mountain and tiger rolls
    Justyna B.

    Actual rating: 3.5 I'm genuinely surprised I liked this place because the location is kinda a hole in a wall and the huge 50% off sushi sign threw me off. However, the rolls were delicious (kinda small tho). I suggest the snow mountain roll!! I also had the tiger roll which was just as good. My friend got the sushi sandwich and it was huge!! Unable to finish. I would probably go back but only because it's a 2 second drive away from me.

    Whole bunch of vegi rolls
    Mike W.

    Pretty good! They have a large selection of vegi rolls, which I was happy about. All the rolls are very cheap, so we were able to try each one. With each roll being only $3 or $3.50, you can imagine they're not the biggest. I do wish I ordered some more rolls, as we were left craving more at the end (we split 6 rolls between 2 people). The place seems to be more about take-out, as numerous people came in to pick up orders while we ate there. On a Saturday night, we were the only ones eating in the restaurant. Would definitely come back... with knowledge that I'd have to order a little more to be totally satisfied.

    Take notice of the dull translucence in the salmon avocado.

Unfortunately, would not recommend after this visit, and would recommend sushi village instead if you're looking for something local. They have a system where you press a button to call them if you need them. When we first ordered our ayce round, the waiter with the glasses seemed rude and it felt like we were intruding being at this restaurant. After we placed a 2nd round, about 20 minutes passed when I asked for an update. I heard the waiters speaking in tagalog saying why are we in a rush to each other. The last thing that bothered me is that the same waiter dropped another menu at our table while we were still waiting and after I said "we're actually still waiting for our food," he responded with "oh this is for the next customer." I don't feel that was appropriate considering we were still waiting for our food and not finished?? Correct me if I'm wrong?? I've worked in the restaurant industry and would never do that - I think it's common courtesy. Another thing to note - we asked for tap water and received bottled water. We asked for tap water again, but it never came so we ended up drinking the bottled water which comes at an additional charge. Last thing - the sushi and food were below average to average at best. Truly not worth it. The only good thing about this restaurant was that they gave hazelnut chocolate at the end of our meal and that the other waiters were much friendlier and approachable.

The sabazushi was a bit too fishy for me. We tried both the Eel and the wagyu bowl sets between 4 people. I liked the wagyu more than the eel but mixing it was a bit rough. I'd recommend mixing the egg yolk with the rice and then adding the wagyu pieces back in. The service was well timed for our food and things came 1 after another. Unfortunately, they sold out of the matcha mochi the day we went so we opted for the mango parfait instead. It tasted ok but I would have rather had the mochi instead.

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.

My last favorite was in a food court inside of a mall!" "It feels like it's the next evolution in the Tommy's Tavern-Tio Taco's takeover of high-quality spots all across our great state!" (But each statement is said, and meant, with sincerity.) It's large (high ceilings adding to the 'wow factor'). It has a great look and vibe. The entire staff are profusely positive. As for the ramen... the broth was chock-a-block with flavor and veggies and noodles and a whole array of goodies (black oil, crispy garlic nubs, creamy tofu, you name it). The Mrs. (who is the real connoisseur when it comes to ramen, I'm just a wannabe) thought the portion was a bit on the 'wimpy' side (for the price) but I was content.

The selection is inclusive, with ramen options for vegans and those who don't eat pork. And the pièce de résistance: the takoyaki. I consider myself somewhat of a takoyaki connoisseur. If it's on the menu, I order. Their takoyaki is BOMB. It's perfectly creamy inside and rests atop this delicious velvety ricotta-like sauce, excellent sauce assortment (the usuals), and I like the shredded bonito, ALL GOOD. Not a ton of octopus in there (about 1-2 pieces in each) but I wasn't mad. I was actually very very happy. Now the sad is that their main event, the ramen, was pretty underwhelming. I ordered the chicken ramen. The issue that really docks points is that the broth was just not right. It was over-reduced, or something otherwise went wrong because the texture was less creamy and more...thickened? Viscous? Unpleasant. It left this slightly gritty strange coating on the tongue. Also, it tasted like straight up bones and water. Severely under-seasoned. And the measly slices of chicken (give us 4 if they're going to be that small) did not have a touch of much-needed salt. The noodles were seasoned very well though, so I did enjoy those bites especially when I doused that baby in their delicious spicy sauce. The seasoned egg was nice and I'm glad it came with one whole egg and not a half. Also glad the bowl came with spinach because lord knows we need more fiber. As I ate the noodles, I enjoyed the bowl, but I couldn't slurp the soup. That's arguably at least half the experience, right? I want to give 4 stars because genuinely, that takoyaki is GOLD. That alone is like eight stars, off the charts. However, this is a ramen spot. The ramen is, alas, important.

    If you are a true sushi purist, you know that the best experiences often hide behind the most…read moreunassuming storefronts. This place is the definition of a hidden gem--a masterclass in traditional sushi sitting quietly on a culinary wasteland of a street. The commitment to quality here is staggering. This isn't your standard neighborhood joint slinging spicy mayo rolls; the seafood here boasts absolute freshness, with rare fish flown in weekly directly from Japan. You will find cuts here that are nearly impossible to source at standard sushi restaurants, elevating the experience to something you'd typically only find at an exclusive omakase counter. Let's talk about the tuna. The vast majority of sushi spots try to pass off cheap, frozen yellowfin as a premium offering. Not here. They source incredibly high-quality Spanish Bluefin--the exact same caliber of fish utilized by Michelin-starred establishments. What truly sets them apart is their ability to offer the complete trinity of bluefin cuts: the deep, ruby-red lean akami, the perfectly marbled chu-toro, and the rich, melt-in-your-mouth o-toro. The menu reads like a love letter to the ocean. Finding high-grade yellowtail belly can be a challenge, but here, it is a staple of exceptional quality. For those with an adventurous and educated palate, the chefs regularly feature incredibly hard-to-find selections like itoyori (golden threadfin bream), mejina (opaleye), and a luxuriously rich fatty bonito. The uni deserves its own paragraph. Sea urchin can be a gamble at lesser restaurants, but here it is pristine. On any given night, you might be lucky enough to find both creamy California uni and the briny, delicate Hokkaido uni available for side-by-side comparison. Another testament to their traditional approach and culinary respect is how they utilize the week's fresh catch to craft a warm, incredibly tasty fish head soup. It is a deeply comforting, umami-rich broth that extracts every ounce of flavor from the premium seafood they bring in, showcasing a level of authenticity you rarely see anymore. While the menu does offer French-inspired dishes and various hot kitchen items, let me be clear: you are here for the sushi. The hot food isn't bad by any means, but if you truly want a culinary experience, do not waste precious stomach space on it. You are here for the raw fish. The singular exception to this rule is the pork gyoza--they are remarkably juicy and absolutely worth the order. Do not skip dessert. In many sushi restaurants, desserts are an afterthought, but here they are top-notch and entirely homemade. The Japanese flan is impossibly silky and decadent. However, the true star is the crème brûlée cheesecake--it is remarkably smooth, slicing effortlessly at the touch of a fork, with a deeply satisfying flavor profile that entirely avoids being overly sweet. I have to address the elephant in the neighborhood: this place absolutely destroys Morimoto down the street. Morimoto has become a tourist trap resting on a recognizable name, employing inexperienced chefs to cater to the sheep-like masses who prioritize a flashy dining room over authentic taste. If you actually understand and respect true sushi, you skip the theatrical nonsense down the street and come here. Let's also be brutally honest about the price point: excellence comes at a premium. This is an uncompromising, high-end culinary experience, and the bill reflects the quality of ingredients flown in from Japan. If you are a bargain hunter, looking for cheap eats, or aren't willing to pay for top-tier craftsmanship, save your time and look elsewhere. This establishment is for serious diners who understand the value of good sushi and aren't just looking for a good enough "AYCE" experience.
