We came here for lunch and ordered 3 Atlantic Salmon Poke bowl. As usual it was delicious. The portion of the rice with the salmon is perfect. The salmon was fresh, as well as the lettuce, cucumbers, and avocados. The corn and edamame are always great additions. The seaweed salad tasted fresh as well. The salmon never tasted fishy! We were the first customers for lunch and didn't have to wait to order. Our order came out quickly after ordering. read more

great food an service ! Always have had a great experience ordering from here and once have went inside to eat with some friends had an amazing time read more

This was one of my bookmarks to try and it is a Fetch bonus points. So it was a win win for me. Very clean place and the waitress is really friendly and attentive but was camera shy. Candy is really good for the establishment. She brings fun to the table. The beef and shrimp wonton was tasty. I guess very good, because I ate them all The pineapple rice with chicken and shrimp was so good. The perfect amount of chunks of very sweet pineapple with a lot of shrimp and chicken. The generous portion was to much for me to finish. I decided late to get some chicken wings to go and have for later. Definitely a place I'll return too. The owner stopped by the table for a hot second. read more

Happy to have a Taiwanese spot close by. They have all the usual dishes on the menu which was great to see. There is a full sushi bar and some casual tables/booth seating. Food is slightly above average. I wish they included more meat/ toppings in the ramen bowl. Poke bowl had a lot of lettuce on the bottom. read more

Service was exceptional. Everything we ordered was delicious. For small children, I highly recommend getting them some plain ramen soup and noodles. The sushi was great, the soups are all good. We will definitely be back. read more

Dan Zai - Korean Style Ramen with Spicy Miso broth - Sushi Bars Near Me - Green Brook Township, New Jersey

This cute and casual spot lets your taste buds tour parts of Asia and the Pacific without leaving your seat. From ramen to poke bowls, soupy steamed buns (XLB) to natural-tasting and delicious boba tea, this restaurant is perfect for a date and families who love to share (or pretend they do). Their Fried Radish Rice Cake- crispy on the outside, soft on the inside- impressed my kids who tried it for the first time and the rest of us who've had it at dim sum places. Then their Taiwanese Style Noodle Soup was just soup-er with tasty ground pork, shrimp, shiitake fish ball, and soy egg. I highly recommend Dan Zai for anyone who wants to eat their way through Japan, China, Hawaii, and Taiwan- no passport required! NOTES/TIPS: **Plenty of parking in a shared plaza lot. Plenty of seating. **Excellent and attentive service. **Wheelchair-accessible. **On yelp, DoorDash, Grubhub, Caviar, Seamless, MealkeyWay (preferred by business), Uber Eats, Postmates. read more

Have been here several times before for the hibachi steak and shrimp meal, but today, I decided to mix it up and try something new. Went with one order of the classic California rolls and two of the Shrimp Tempura rolls. SOO GOOD!!! First off, the Shrimp Tempura serving size was soooo generous! Not to mention, it was drizzled with eel sauce that tasted amazing!!! I also got a side of the hibachi noodles, which are always a staple in my house. I did pick up, midday, so the restaurant was empty and relatively quiet. In short, I knew Dan Zai was good, but these were fantastic. Can't wait to go back! read more

Tried this place for lunch today. The kids ordered a sushi donut, sushi pizza, and sushi burrito -- all tasted decent, but portions were small for the price. My husband's ramen was just okay. Service was friendly, but the food took a while to arrive. Overall, not worth the drive or the cost, so we won't be back. read more

Very good sushi it's fresh and delicious made the moment u order on the spot the service been great

Food was OK. Not bad, but nothing particularly stood out in terms of taste. I had the lobster Hibachi with fried rice. Sauces were not good, to be honest. Bathroom was nice and clean. Staff was nice. read more

Dan Zai - hibachi lobster with fried rice - Sushi Bars Near Me - Green Brook Township, New Jersey

We've door dashed sushi before from Dan zai and it's always delicious. This is our first time dining in. To start we had pork fried pot stickers, California roll and shrimp tempura roll. All of it was presented beautifully and tasted delicious. For our entrees we had pineapple fried rice with chicken and chicken hibachi with both fried rice and noodles ($1 extra to get both). The pineapple fried rice was great. The hibachi was a huge amount of food and delicious, I just wish the chicken was white meat rather than thigh. The atmosphere was very pleasant as was the service, so attentive! What was especially nice was that you didn't have a set server, everyone was willing to help. To go my son asked for Thai tea with bubbles. He loved it and the packaging was very nice. So excited to have found Dan zai, looking forward to returning! read more

Service was excellent! Food was very delicious! We had 1 of the sushi specials w mango, it was so good. We also had 2 other rolls just as good & fresh. The only complaint which is really not a complaint is, we had duck bao & i wish it came with a dipping sauce or that I asked for some. Otherwise the experience was wonderful. read more

Dan zai has become our go to place when we are crazing healthy Asian food. I grew up in Taiwan and the menu has a lot of classic Taiwanese dishes to choose from. We had crab Rangoon: crispy wrapping paper with very soft cheese inside. Delightful. Then we had danzai noodle: great broth, nice fish ball and minced pork. I also got Taiwanese beef noodle: the beef was flavorful and tender. The broth is tasty. We finished the meal with homemade chocolate cake: soft and spongy with the right amount of whipped cream. If you want non-greasy and delicious Asian food, this is a great spot. A casual Asian bistro. read more

We've been there quite a few times, and the quality of their food is consistently good. No wonder they are doing well, always packed at dinner time. This time we got there early (5:30) to best the crowd and there were already 4 tables with customers. For appetizers, we had their special King Caterpillar (seared salmon with lobster salad), and fried oysters. They have extensive menu so it's always a challenge to decide what to get for entrees. I was craving for noodles so got the Taiwanese minced pork noodles. My husband loved poke bowl, so he got the salmon poke bowl. Everything was delicious. In the past we've tried their juicy dumplings, pancake wrap, and duck bao. They're all good. The place was nicely designed and very clean. Service was friendly and efficient. I also enjoyed watching the programs played on tv talking about how food was prepared traditionally. We've always enjoyed coming here. You should give it a try too when you're in the area. read more

Food and service were absolutely great! Plus, the decor really sets the mood for an enjoyable evening. BYOB is a plus. :)

The sushi was okay. I was a little disappointed and what I received. I normally always get Salmon and Philly rolls so I assumed they would come with cucumber but neither of the rolls did. The picture on DoorDash showed both rolls with cucumber so I didn't think to add an extra note about it. Other than that the quality of the food is great. The rolls are more on the expensive side. I order 2 basic rolls and spent more than $15 read more

We have been going to Dan Zai for several years, both eat in and take out. The food is consistently great and the owner is amazing. Hard working and generous of spirit. The staff is equally great, you can tell that the owner treats her employees like family. We are always treated like royalty when we are there and see ourselves being longtime guests of Dan Zai. read more

This is the best family/kid friendly restaurant I've been to. The highchairs are clean, they give free plastic cups with lids and straw for kids to drink water from, they have chopstick helpers for kids to use, and they gave my kids free cookie snacks. All the staff are nice and friendly. The food is good too. The minced pork noodles and pork chop tasted great. The sauce they gave to go along with the avocado salad is addicting and pairs perfectly with salad. The sushi pizza tasted great but I wish the size was larger. If you're looking for a great ramen place I wouldn't recommend the seafood ramen since for me it just tasted ok. Wouldn't recommend this place for soup dumplings since there wasn't that much soup in them. The coconut shrimp were nice and crunchy. I would definitely go back again to eat. read more

Place turned out to be amazing! We ordered couple of the duck appetizers, good. And ramen noodles, crazy tuna roll and corn chowder soup and Annie's as well. Everything was delicious. The rice bowls are a decent size as well. read more

Saw the spectacular reviews and decided to come in for Ramin on a cold day. Did not like the food at all, we get a lot of Ramen, and this did not taste like Ramin, to be honest Spicy broth beef Ramen was not spicy and had no beef. The two pieces of small beef I had were 85% fat not edible. The veggie spicy Ramen literally had no salt Or flavor . Our server never came back and never asked if we liked it or if we needed something and we had to literally wave hands and wait for hot sauce, which was hard to get more. We had to call over a manager just to get the check and we told her our experience and she gave us a discount but I don't think we're gonna come back and we do not suggest this to anyone I understand if the place is busy, but the place was completely empty and the server did not care at all read more

Nice location in a strip mall on 22E, so parking is in no way a problem. Large venue, bright, clean, & friendly staff. They are Asian Fusion so you can get foods from different Asian cultures. It's casual, so no need to dress up for it. We had Yummy Yummy Roll, Angel Roll, Naruto Roll, Grilled Beef Rice Bowl, Beef Bao, Juicy Pork Dumplings, Miso Soup, Thai Boba Tea, & Blueberry Soda. Everything was very good. The Beef Rice Bowl took some "jazzing up," but that really a preference thing. I added cherry blossom sauce, which is like a Thai Chili sauce to it. The rolls were excellent, especially the Angel Roll, which ended up ordering another of. The Bao was very good, & the dumplings were as well, although admittedly, they are coming in 3rd place for me when compared to two other places I've recently been. Overall, a good stop for a great meal. read more

On a Sunday afternoon, my girlfriend and I were in the mood for some Asian cuisine. Dan Zai caught our attention as one of the options were dumplings, since I had been craving dumplings. We arrived near opening time, and the restaurant was not packed which allowed us to be seated right away. After looking at the menu, we ordered the vegetable dumplings, crispy scallion pancake, and shrimp pineapple fried rice. Our starters arrived quickly, and we found the dumplings and scallion pancake to be enjoyable. But I personally wished the scallion pancake had been a bit crispier. The presentation of the shrimp pineapple fried rice was amazing, served inside a pineapple. The flavor of the fried rice was exceptional, and was seasoned very well. The big portion allowed us to share the dish. Overall, Dan Zai proved to be a delightful restaurant to try, and I would certainly recommend it to others seeking tasty Asian fare in the area. read more

This place missed the mark multiple times with their food. It was a weird in between traditional and non traditional Asian food without a full commitment to either. It's a traditional Asian food desert here minus the dim sum places so I was really hoping it would go well. Unfortunately it went bad all the way through. The wonton soup completely missed the mark and tasted more like American Chinese wonton. The duck scallion pancake was dry. And the soup dumplings... oh.. my.. God. How???? The wrappers were too thick, the tops were dried and cracked, and then the wrappers were also cracked, leaking out the soup! I never not finished my soup dumplings but I gave up here. I'm going to stick to my traditional restaurants here. read more

One of our favorite places for Ramen and appreciate the BYOB, decided to try only their sushi this time. The Yummy Salmon is basically a Kani salad w Salmon. Unfortunately, the sushi wasnt worth all the hype some of the locals give it. There aren't many special rolls to choose from, the tuna on rolls wasn't as fresh as it should be. Overall, wouldn't go back for sushi but a def for ramen spot. read more

I came by to check out this place after my Taiwanese friend recommended it to me!! We were immediately seated with no wait time even though we walked in at peak lunch time. We ordered the Taiwanese style beef noodle soup, juicy pork soup dumplings, Hawaiian combo poke bowl, and mango snow ice. We enjoyed every single dish; everything had its own burst of flavor and was so satisfying to consume. The service was great, and our waitress was extremely patient and attentive to all of the customers. I saw how well she was able to deal with the customers next to us and I have the utmost respect for how she patiently noted down all the alterations that made to their dishes. I also loved the general decor of the whole restaurant and the overall aesthetic! I'd definitely come back if I'm in the nearby area!! read more

It's so beautiful inside and they're very kind and friendly. The food is so good and they're so many options you know you'll have to come back multiple times just to try it all. Some of the best fruit tea boba I've had. Definitely recommend. read more

Have gotten sushi takeout from here before but never dined in! Love that it's a few doors down from Sunmerry bakery. We enjoyed our avocado salad (the dressing is different than anything I've had but very tasty!). The steamed pork buns were still cold inside (and look like the ones you can buy frozen at Asian grocery stores). Luckily they offered to replace them which we declined. They removed them from our final bill which we appreciated. The Taiwanese noodle soup was tasty but we both thought the broth could have more flavor. The sushi tacos were excellent! Stuffed full of high quality salmon and tuna with avocado, mango, corn and some wasabi cream sauce. We found the prices here to be super reasonable as our two mains and salad came to under 40 bucks before tip! Easy parking out front in the lot and it's BYOB. Only wish they'd dim the lights a bit and play some music for a bit of a cozy ambiance. read more

Food that hits the spot (although a bit pricey). What was good: - Pineapple fried rice (omg so yum, the best I've ever had) - Taiwanese minced pork over rice (this was good, but expensive for the small portion. it was $11 and i could easily finish it in 5 bites.) What to stay away from: - the ramen. a comment below stated that this tasted like it came from a box and i could not agree more Would definitely re-order the pine apple fried rice and the taiwanese minced pork over rice as my toddlers who can be picky eaters, love the latter. read more

My lab had dinner at Dan Zai after bowling at Bowlero just a couple min away. For appetizers we got the sushi nachos and vegetable dumplings, which were interestingly green and both were very delicious. I personally ordered the shrimp tempura fried rice which was served with three large pieces of shrimp tempura separately from a container of rice and a scrambled egg with onions. The shrimp tempura was very tasty and satisfyingly crunchy. I wish that there was more in the rice besides the onions and egg, such as some vegetables or meat. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal at Dan Zai and I hope to come back to order the pineapple fried rice. read more

I haven't been here since they originally opened. They are located right off Rt 22 in greenbrook . Cute little spot and service is decent and wait time for food isn't bad . I ordered the dumpling noodle soup which was a but disappointing the soup and noodles really had no taste I had to add chili sauce to elevate the taste . The dumplings themselves were pretty decent . My husband ordered the shrimp tempura roll which was pretty big but only 5 pieces . We also ordered the scallion's pancakes which were just okay the oil tasted off . Pork Bao buns were a bit dry .We also ordered the soup dumplings which really weren't that juicy . Those took 20 minutes to make but didn't come out hot at all.. We also decided to give the mango shaved ice a try and will have to say that was probably the best part of our meal. I was definitely disappointed with our dinner but the dessert sort of made up for it . read more
