The place was nice, quaint with your typical Japanese Restaurant flare. Not pretentious. Comfortable and seemingly spacious enough for 6 people. The food was very good. I had the Chirashi Sashimi and the fish was fresh. Didn't feel like it was frozen for days. My wife and son enjoyed the Steak Teriyaki Bento Box, My other son found his Sushi Roll very satisfying. Even my daughter, who is very picky, like her Chicken Katsu. I also had the Tokyo IPA. It was surprisingly good! It didn't have that tiresome bitter IPA taste. I was delightfully refreshing. This place is definitely worth visiting. I should really explore the back roads of my area more and not just go up-and-down Route 9 or 18 or trekking to NYC. There could be more hidden gems that I haven't discovered.

I had the Golden Salmon Roll (swapped the tobiko for masago) and it was super fresh with really high-quality fish. My husband got the hibachi scallops, which came out piping hot and perfectly cooked.

Whether you're a sushi connoisseur or just discovering Japanese cuisine, this place is a must-visit. Can't wait to come back!

Super crispy and the flavor of sauce was amazing. I would go here just for this. Aaannnnd their fried rice has no business being as amazing as it is. I think they have a magician in the kitchen. Sushi was sooooo fresh and the size was great. They didn't skimp on the seafood at all. It was perfectly delicious. Will say the waitress did say we ordered so much and she didn't want us to take left overs because sushi is best enjoyed fresh. lol I think she just wanted to see us again, and we feel the same! Ambiance. Low music playing. Comfortable seats. Decor- little dated but as an 80's kid it felt like home. Not your laser show and DJ kind of venue but it soooo didn't need to be. We came to eat and that is exactly what we did. Enjoy our meal to the fullest. Enjoy and if you check them out please post photos! We want to try all the variety here.

I go all the time and have my usual favorites and have never had a problem. The last time i went in was during the daytime and i was sat where i had a view of the fancy sushi chefs out front chopping sushi. To start off, the place reeked. dont know what was going on but it was awful. Then, one of the sushi chefs must have been sick or something because he was coughing and SNEEZING fully onto the food he was working on without covering his mouth or turning away or anything. He then went on to do this a few more times and wipe his face with the gloves that are supposed to keep the food sanitary. If the chef that is visible to the customers right out front is visibly sneezing into the food thats being sent out and NONE of the other workers care?! then i dont even want to know whats going on in the back kitchen. I work at a little ice cream store and we are 1000% more careful and hygienic than this place and we don't even cook food. Absolutely disgusting. Don't know if I can go back

I ordered chicken hibachi and we started with miso soup and salad with a ginger dressing. All was good and then came the fried rice. Served piping hot and delicious. Then came the vegetables in a tasty soy sauce. Finally got the chicken which was also perfectly cooked and quite tasty. Everyone liked their food and dessert was free for the birthday girl! She got fried ice cream. Dessert options are limited but no more limited than any other hibachi. Our chef was good and made it fun and interactive. Saki blasts, vegetable toss for mouth catching and more. Definitely try Kobe for sushi & hibachi.

The sign on the door is correct, we do love this place on Yelp…read more We were a little nervous coming to this place but we're very surprised. We went on a Monday so nobody was inside. We were greeted at the door and were aloud to pick our seat. The ambience is such a cool Asian inspired atmosphere. Mural on the wall, little table top waterfall on the sushi station, bonsai and other nicknacks on the shelves and tv showing peaceful marine life. The menu is very sushi dense, with the whole first 3 pages being sushi. I got the shrimp tempura, dragon roll, and Philly roll with a miso soup. My partner got the green curry, miso soup and white rice. My sushi rolls were so delicious, perfectly fresh, and just so yummy. Shrimp tempura roll 9.0/10 Dragon Roll 8.7/10 Philly Roll 9.1/10 The green curry was different from what we've had in the past, it came out in more of a curry soup. It has baby carrots, onions, chicken, corn, and potatoes. It was my first time trying curry and it was pretty good. 7.8/10 Overall my experience here was nothing but positive. Seemed clean, the wait staff was very attentive, bathroom was clean, service was fast, and atmosphere was cool to look at. Definitely will end up here again, also the price was awful for all the sushi I got. I'd give this place a 9.0/10. Such a cute spot. Hope it gets the business it deserves, just try not to miss the entrance like I did.. Food 9.5/10 Ambience 9.0/10 Service 9.8/10

I highly recommend the New Orleans roll - yum! We got our usual noodles and sushi. Our kids enjoyed their plain food but me & my husband loved the variation of rolls we ordered. The place is your average restaurant, nothing special & when you first walk in there's an interesting smell that we quickly got used to. It wasn't anything that would give you a headache, something like old food and cleaning products but faint-ish. Nothing that would stop me from coming back. We really like coming here when we're in the area which is rare but we love the vibe.

My girlfriend and I tried their general tso's chicken, sesame chicken, and beef lo mein. We really enjoyed all 3 of these dishes. General Tso's was my favorite of them all, just because I enjoy some spice to my sauces. But everything was really good here. Awesome flavors. And their prices are very reasonable. You get a large amount of food for a lunch special. I was very satisfied with everything here. I will be coming back for sure.

I didn't anticipate the restaurant to be so packed as it looks unassuming given its location, but I was wrong! Had to wait a good 30-40 minutes to get a table for 2. Once you review the menu, you put up the sign that says "service needed" to indicate to the staff you are ready to order. They have disclaimers (rightfully so) to not over order as to minimize food waste.Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and tasted very fresh!

I tried to give this new spot a fair shot, especially because it's so close to me, but it was pretty disappointing to say the least. The cooked food selection was limited. No fried oysters?! On top of that, the cooked food that we did order was bland and bordered on nursing home food. Service was very slow even though it wasn't busy. It took almost an hour for the sushi to be served and we only ordered 2 rolls and a few pieces of nigiri. I noticed that there were way more waitstaff than sushi chefs. The interior was decorated beautifully and the employees were nice, but that's really the only positive thing I have to say :(

All delish! I think I've been going there long enough as to where they probably know it's me when I call in an order. Highly recommend for authentic Chinese food.

We ordered the sushi platter, original Kani salad, Mango Kani salad and coconut shrimp. Overall,…read morethe sushi rolls were fresh and delicious.
