The food was really bland. We had shrimp tempura (bland) and two ramen dishes (hot and spicy, tonkotsu). The hot and spicy ramen was pretty flavorful, with peanut butter, and was pretty decent overall. However, the tonkotsu wasn't that flavorful. I had to add soy sauce to give it some flavor. The service was pretty good, and the interior looked really nice and modern. read more

I've been here 2 times so far and it's a solid ramen and sushi spot. It's a go-to spot because they close late in comparison to a lot of ramen spots around north NJ. The place was clean and has modern decor. It was also calm. It hasn't been too packed both times I've been and it helps that the tables are well spaced out. The menu is very expansive! There's LOTS of classic sushi and specialty sushi options. The ramen and sushi were both good. I'd say the sushi is better but also priced high in comparison to other spots. We had the tonkotsu ramen and the sexy lady roll (I believe). My gf also ordered the shrimp shumai. Rolls are delish and filling! We'll be back. read more

Came here for lunch as our usual Ramen spot is closed on Mondays. A surprisingly larger venue than expected. Very clean typical interior. Some free on street parking & a small lot in the back. Ordered take out, so no true word on the staff. Our food was ready when we picked it up. I'd say a touch pricier than I would have liked, especially considering the end. We had the Braised Pork Belly Donbari, Truffle Ramen, & Katsu (Chicken) Cutlet w/Hibachi fried rice add on (not pictured). Overall, everything was just Meh. Nothing was bad, but nothing was particularly good either. The Truffle Ramen had an unpleasant smell, the Katsu was decent, the Hibachi Fried Rice was more like brown rice tather than actual fried rice. The braised pork belly donburi was flavorless. I had to "fix it up" with sauces I had on hand. So, No, we won't be back. The experience while pleasant, was not worth it in the end.

Yasuo Ramen And Sushi - Spicy salmon roll - Ramen Near Me - Union, New Jersey

First time i ordered from here was in Uber Eats I have the salmon taco which is by one get one on Uber Eats and had the special roll combo where you get to choose to chef special rolls. In my more recent visit I went and pick up my order very cute place many tables. I had the salmon taco again the and Ahi Tuna taco. The tuna taco was okay the wasabi sauce take away from the flavor and the tuna just take like regular raw tuna missing that Ahi flavor. The kani salad was a great. The surume ika (bbq squid) was as 10/10, a big portion and great flavor, perfectly good not too chewy definitely gonna re-order again. Only reason I took off one star is because of the tuna taco the wasabi sauce and the bland to a really took away from that great taco. read more

The food is always good and ready on time when we order take-out. My favorites are their sushi and the Ramen, but they also have other Japanese meals and appetizers. Anything we've ever ordered was very good and the employees are always friendly and nice. The place is also spotlessly clean read more

The service was great, good came fast! And the bento box is great, it's always a good choice they were $21 per bento box. The shrimp fried rice was amazing, some of the best I've had! The salmon in the bento box was disappointing, it was the thinnest piece of salmon I have ever had over a bed of onions. I wish I had gotten chicken too. The ramen was tasty according to my husband. Portion sizes were good. There was only one other person dining in, ambiance is nice for a casual spot. read more

4 star sushi / 3 star Ramen The Sushi: - Quality & Quantity - Ordered the 3 Rolls Special via uber eats for $26.00:  - Spicy Crunch Crab Roll - Spicy Tuna Roll - White Tuna Roll - Salad - All 3 rolls were good. I particularly enjoyed the Spicy Crunch Crab! The Ramen: - Ordered: - Black Garlic Ramen x2 (BOGO) - Miso Ramen - Quantity over quality: I have never not finished a bowl of ramen...until now. With the miso ramen, the meat was tough and the broth was lacking flavor. I had to add chilli oil, which helped bring out the flavor slightly, but not enough. Ordered via Uber Eats. The meal was still hot and fresh when it arrived, and service was super friendly and convenient. All in all, I would not recommend the ramen. But if you're looking for a good sushi place, Yasuo is worth a try! read more

I come here frequently and it hits every time, I think I came on an off day only once. During the week it's pretty calm which is great for a quick bite, I went as a group of three and we were out in 40 minutes on a simple Monday. The take out is also fresh and convenient as well. The staff is always nice and efficient even when it gets busy (typically weekend nights). My favorite on the menu is currently the sushi deluxe, but I also get a variety of different special rolls in their maki special combo. read more

We called to do a takeout order as their website was closed for orders. Small bummer- no lunch sushi special today but understandable.

Yasuo has such a huge menu, I had a hard time deciding between ramen or sushi (or both)! I went with the Sunshine Roll, and let me tell you, it was amazing--super fresh and packed with flavor. Exactly what you want from sushi. I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu. Just a heads-up, the parking lot is tiny (only fits about 4 cars plus 1 handicap spot), but the service was super fast when we came around 4:30 pm since it wasn't too busy. read more

Service was okay, except for when she told me I couldn't have any liquid in my soup, not to mention there was a HALF egg in my big bowl of ramen (emphasis on half.)

But I needed those eggs. read more

Yasuo Ramen And Sushi - R1. Yasuo Tonkotsu - Ramen Near Me - Union, New Jersey

My original review was my first time at Yasuo, and since then, I cannot say I've had as quality of an experience. I've tried ordering takeout twice, the second time giving them the benefit of the doubt, but was unfortunately disappointed on both occasions. During the first, the employee taking my order was terse and unfriendly, and actually put the phone down and left me hanging on the call for at least five minutes after asking a question about one of their menu items. This led me to eventually having to hang up. I called again and just ordered; after picking up and trying our food, my family had mutually agreed that it wasn't very fresh. During the second, after a long day of work, I ordered online for delivery from Yasuo. I try to give grace to workers in food because I know it's not easy, but it took over an hour to get my food after an expected 25 minutes listed on the delivery. I tried calling in for updates twice after the 25 minutes passed, even asking for some kind of discount or accommodation once it hit the 1 hour mark, but was met with no info but "it should be coming". I absolutely love supporting small businesses, but I believe good customer service is an integral piece in any successful restaurant. If they had just communicated the first time that they were busy or the second time that my order would take longer than expected, I wouldn't have been upset at all! I'd love to dine here again if they improve on some of these elements, but for now I sadly would not recommend! read more

The service is impecable. The girl that served me a couple weeks ago was always so attentive and the food was incredible. Also pretty affordable for an authentic Japanese restaurant. It was also very clean and had a nice vibe to it. The ambient was very elegant. Definitely will come here again! (If you don't know what to order and don't really like raw fish I recommend the chicken nori tacos) read more

This could be a new hidden gem within the 5 points area. Yasuo Ramen and Sushi completely surprised me. I drove by it the other day recently noticing the grand opening out front. Today after work I decided to order the Yasuo Tonkotu and the Maki Combo. The moment I opened the bowl for my ramen, my mouth started to instantly water. The portion is great. I'm a big guy, so I get annoyed when I sometimes get one cut of pork in my ramen. So needless to say I was happy when I saw not one, but THREE cuts of delicious juicy pork in my bowl. The broth (which came in a seperate container) was nice and hot, and once I poured it in to my ramen bowl, the aroma flooded my nostrils. Taking my first bite, I instantly knew this place was special. The sushi!? Beautiful. Amazing taste and amazing cuts. I can't wait to try more dishes from here both at home and in person!! I ordered delivery from here and expected to wait at least 40 minutes, not even 15 minutes after I ordered, my food arrived! Like what!? read more

Stopped in for dinner. Place was nicely decorated and ambiance was laid-back. Lots of options for seating as they usually cater to big groups. We were attended promptly and we were starving so this was very much appreciated. We started off with some appetizers. We got the edamame and the beef negimaki. The edamame was overly salty. If you're ordering I would mention that you want them lightly salted. However, the beef negimaki could've used a little more flavoring. Was my first time trying it and wouldn't say it was a favorite of mine. We also shared some sushi rolls. The dynamite and spicy crunchy tuna were delicious. For entree, I was craving ramen and this restaurant is known it so I decided to give it a try. I got the Miso Ramen and I did not like it at all. I actually took a couple bites and that was all I could have. I left almost the entire bowl. The broth was tasteless and the meat was overcooked. It had a rubber texture to it that wasn't very appetizing. I was disappointed. I would recommend this place if you're looking to dine with a large group. Maybe just if you're getting sushi. I personally wouldn't come back. read more

I was in the mood for ramen and decided to give this spot a try. I called in my order of the vegan miso ramen and they said it would take 15 minutes. When I arrived I parked in their mini parking lot. I walked in and was greeted. I told the lady my name and my food was ready. I paid a little over $15 and left. When I got in I dug in. The ramen was so good. I am not a big tofu fan but they seasoned it to perfection. The broth was good and the ramen was good. I truly enjoyed and would return. read more

Came for lunch with a coworker since we work nearby. We shared the mini boat for $50. it came with a few shashimi and spicy tuna and cali rolls. Decor and interior is nice. Maybe a date spot bc they serve alcohol. I'd come back to try the ramen. Don't come here expecting omakase experience. There's a tiny parking lot next to the building. CC accepted. read more

Great food and service with clean establishment. The menu was extensive, but everything we tried was delicious! I'd recommend the scallion pancakes for appetizers. The tonkatsu ramen was surprisingly delicious, the only thing I'd say is the noodles were a little too thin and soft for my liking. But the broth was rich and flavorful, as was the pork. The egg was perfectly soft boiled. Overall, I will definitely be coming back and it's definitely the best ramen I've had in the surrounding area. read more

From the outside, it doesn't look like anything spectacular but when I walked in, It didn't feel like I was on the corner of a busy intersection. The place is beautiful and newly renovated. The lighting is romantic and the decor is very modern and minimal. Love the overall ambiance of the place. An added plus is that the place is spacious! I popped in after running errands for hours and just needed a quick bite. Service was great and the food came out very quickly. The food was delicious, I only got the fried calamari (my favorite dish of the evening), bubble tea, and a speciality roll. Everything tasted fresh and did not disappoint read more

This spot is wonderful!!! I'm glad that I was able to patron this establishment because it's definitely a hidden gem that will take off soon. The appetizers were so satisfying that I could have eaten that alone and be content. The chicken was seasoned well and filled with flavor. I had the hibachi noodle and every bit was satisfying because of the flavor that I might make it my new comfort food. The Truffle Ramen with Shrimp, just to be clear, to ME, tasted like regular Ramen that I make at home which is not a bad thing if you're a person who doesn't like trying new foods. Just know that all plates were empty and no leftovers came home with us because we enjoyed everything there. I would have given this place a 5 star rating but the fact that my appetizers and my main meal all came out together was a "no" for me. It kind of defeated the purpose of having something to snack on while waiting for my meal. Other than that everything else was great. read more

Where do I begin? I LOVEEEEEEE this restaurant. From the service to the food, it was such a positive experience. It is new to the area so I'm sure the reviews will come piling in soon enough. They've been open for takeout for a while and seem to be racking up those orders but as of the last 2 weeks or so they are officially open for dine in(with a complimentary beer so why not right?). I ordered the scallion pancakes, black garlic ramen, and angry dragon roll. The pancakes were yummy crispy and light--not covered in oil which is a plus for me. The black garlic ramen was also delicious. I would've like my noodles to be a bit more firm but the broth, boiled egg, and chicken were just packed with flavor. I didn't really know what to expect with the black garlic but im pretty sure they nailed it! And finally, the angry dragon roll-- it was fresh, had bonus pieces of real crab meat (which we know can be rare!) and had such a great sauce pairing. I mean as you can tell, I really enjoyed this experience. Now I must talk about the service because I was treated so well. The owner was the main person that was helping me and he was so friendly and kind-- constantly making sure I was enjoying the food and the atmosphere. Did I mention that one of the chefs brought me a complimentary tuna dumpling? The dumpling btw was so delicious! If you haven't tried it yet, please be sure to stop by you will not be disappointed. I most certainly will be back! read more

Yasuo Ramen And Sushi - R9. Truffle Ramen (Shrimp) - Ramen Near Me - Union, New Jersey

11/30/22 This place was recommended by my friend so we decided to go for a dinner. We ordered Shoyu Ramen, Volcano Roll, Shrimp Tempura and Shumai. Shoyu Ramen is very disappointing if you know what a good ramen taste like. Broth is just a chicken stock with soy sauce. Although the egg is cooked right, the chashu pork is very bland. Volcano Roll and Shrimp Tempura is good. The shumai is what you buy in grocery and steam cooked. Service is very quick, the plates will be removed as fast as they were served with the dish that goes with it. We are in the middle of a conversation and the server's arm went in the middle of the table and reached into the empty plates on the other side past in front of our faces without saying anything. We are not even done with appetizer, the server even took the chopsticks of my friend. Mind you, we are the only people sitting there and it feels like they want you to leave once you are done. Your bill will be served without you asking for it. It is a clean place. A mediocre Japanese restaurant run by a regular Chinese fastfood owners. read more

Good food, quick pickup. Friendly staff with decent variety. Ambiance is island vibe with nj traffic out the window. Decent experience

TL:DR: Don't come here for ramen. Sushi is okay Got takeout and got the Yasuo ramen. This ramen was pretty sad. The pork was pretty dry. It was a very lean cut too. No flame sears on pork. Broth had a slight porky flavor but was not very rich or strongly flavored beyond that. The egg was not marinated at all (ajitsuke tamago), just a normal soft boil. Portions were average. Generally a subpar bowl but the above average price makes this a terrible deal. There plenty of fantastic ramen at ~15 a bowl and they are asking 15-23. Would give this a 2 star. For sushi, I got the 3 combo maki roll and the 4 nigiri sushi appetizer. Fish was fresh, but quality was average. Cuts were not particularly fatty or had strong flavor. Rice was cooked/seasoned properly. The price is reasonable. Would give this closer to 3.5 stars read more

Food was good and delivered fast. Reason I took off a star is because I ordered bubble tea and it came with no bubbles on the bottom. When I tried to call them to ask if I ordered wrong or something, all the numbers associated with the restaurant are out of order. The google number and the two places on the grub hub site. read more

I will be honest. This place is decent. I've eaten at some really great Ramen restaurants and this spot is good but not great. I did like it but the broth lacked flavor and kind of fell flat. The pork was a bit tough as well. I will try this place again but I would rather eat inside than have it delivered. read more

This place is bad. I've been eating ramen most my life, from the best spots in NYC, to other popular spots in the world. I like to consider myself a ramen hunter and I don't want to sound pretentious, I've had great ramen and bad ramen, this place has laughable, terrible ramen. ITS AS IF THEY DIDN'T EVEN TRY. I don't think the cooks back there know what miso or tonkatsu is supposed to taste like. "BRAISED PORK" lmaoo more like frozen, thawed out same day chewy pork. The only good thing about this place is the decor, idk how the sushi tastes, but I think I'm good. Plus $13-15 a bowl for shit? Lol it's just crazy. Plus we walked in at 9:10, they close at 10, the moment we walked in, not even a Hi how are you, it was, "You know we close at 10 right?" This place is just a bad spot for ramen, I hope they learn to cook better. read more
