Just returned to Denmark from a nice Eastern holiday in Hoboken NJ…read more We found Saka by coincidence. Ordered Red Dragon and Saka rolls, salmon nigri and Edamame with seasalt, and we did that again 2 times more during our holiday. The Red Dragon rolls tasted good and crispy, the Saka rolls with Mango was sweet and exiting, we had'nt tasted that kind of roll before. Can just say, great service, delicious food and prices that reflex the quality. Thanks and please open in Denmark

Saka has a solid offer of Any 3 Rolls for ~$20. Their selection of rolls is more limiting than other places; would love if they had yellowtail or scallop as options at lunch. Nonetheless, the rolls I got were solid! The fish was fresh and the portion was great, the rice layer wasn't thick at all which is a big factor for me, and to my surprise, it came with both a miso soup & salad. The miso soup was pretty flavorful compared to others I've had and the salad came with a sesame dressing that was so refreshing with the crisp salad. I should've kept my order at that as the Crispy Spicy Salmon wasn't worth it. The crispy rice was slightly too hard/over-fried and the portion of spicy salmon was so tiny. The rice layer should be fully topped with salmon, unlike what they gave. It didn't taste half bad but I'd probably skip it next time. If you order for delivery, their insulated packaging is great for transport and temperature control. Solid try!

Service was attentive throughout our meal without ever feeling rushed. The food was the real star. The Short Rib Hash was outstanding--tender, flavorful, and easily one of the best brunch dishes I've had in a long time. The Steak Frites was cooked perfectly with crispy fries and a great sauce. The biggest surprise, though, was the sushi. We ordered the Blu Roll, and it was phenomenal. It honestly ranks among the best sushi rolls I've had in quite a while. Everything we ordered was well executed, and you could tell there was real attention to quality and presentation.

I had to use my chase sapphire dining credits and this restaurant was part of it, and I happened to be nearby. Everyone was dressed nicely, meanwhile I come in with my orange spyder jacket (it was raining) Anyway, food was pretty good. Octopus- it was pretty good as I love octopus legs but thought the texture needed a bit more bounce to it. I still enjoyed it. Steak delmonico- decently good as well. I ordered it medium rare and thats the way it came. I didnt order any sauce on the side for it but maybe u should. I figured the whipped potatoes and truffle creamed spinach would be good sides that can double as sauces. But their truffle butter sauce sounds pretty good. Chicken parm- it was surprisingly good. The cheese complimented the chicken so well. I think I liked this more than my steak. Whipped potatoes- delicious Truffle creamed spinach- pretty good as well Overall, i had a nice evening here.

Its seems like something that one would see here, but no.

Teri Teri Means Terrible Times Two! Plus $65 tab to complete…read morethe formula! I am always wary of trying Asian food in Union City but once again, I gave in to my Asian stomach without using any logic and intellect. New Jersey is a big state so I hesitate to throw all NJ Asian restaurants in the garbage, but it's easier to go back to my beloved Chinatown than to drive hours to a reputable and honorable place within NJ. Upon entering, the place felt unclean and neglected, already a sign of the doom ahead. We ordered the "combo" or in a real Japanese place, called a bento; one salmon and one mackerel. When the plates arrived, I could not suppress my surprise, which burst out in the form of uncontrollable laughter. The enormous plates were filled with rice and on one sad side, was a small piece of dry fish. Then, the rest of the "combo" came later, the tempura in boxes and the California roll on another plate. My companion wanted tempura sauce, but I told him that they would be very confused. And I was right, the server had no idea what it was. Chicken wings were chicken wings, nothing to remark about, except that I suspect they are always frozen, with a good margin for the restaurant. I am surprised that there is another location on Bergenline because what type of a lunatic would think that this unforgivable menu and cooking deserve two locations? I understand that the population is mostly latino in the area but it is a shame that they are introduced to Asian cuisine in such a deplorable and degraded manner.

A preamble (or verbal ramble, take your pick): My reviews of…read morerestaurants tend to follow a certain pattern. I write about ordering a ton of food, joke once again that I'll have to start that diet very, very soon and bemoan those days long past when I used to eat like Art Carney's Ed Norton and drink like Ralph Kramden's Jackie Gleason and never gain a pound. Well, that "very, very soon" diet has finally, belatedly, become a reality. A few weeks ago, I went to my pulmonologist, and I weighed more than I ever have in my life. It shouldn't have been a shock, but it was...a bit. I talked with my oldest friend, who is my age (I'm older by 3 months), and he weighs what he weighed in high school. I don't think that's going to happen to me, but I'm thinking if I really seriously diet and lose the excess weight, maybe I can reverse or at least ameliorate some of these medical issues I've been dealing with lately. As my friend said, "At the very least, you'll feel a lot better." So... I'm trying. In the past few weeks, I've managed to lose 15 pounds. I don't think I'm going to make high school weight (which, if I remember right, was in the 190's), but I've got a good momentum going, and I'm committed to seeing where it will lead. What possible relevance does all that have to a review of Teri Teri Japanese Restaurant in Union City? It means I'm not going to be reviewing the appetizer, or the soup, or the large, spicy meal, or the rich desert, or the headache-inducing-but-soul-satisfying Coconut Bubble Tea. In other words, I'm going to eat moderately and healthily, and the review will reflect that (even if, as is my self-indulgent custom, I'm not writing a review that's moderate or...healthy? No. Let's say moderate, concise and to-the-point). Preamble over. On to the actual review... In the past, the Lunchbox Mafia where I work used to order from Okinawa and I liked their Bento Box. Sadly, they no longer offer the Bento Box, and we haven't ordered from them lately. A few times, though, we've ordered delivery from Teri Teri, and I've been satisfied. The Chicken Combo was a pretty good Bento Box replacement, with soup, salad, rice, tempura, slices of ginger (love 'em!) and a 5-piece California roll (I loathe sushi, but I can handle the California roll). Recently, the Lunchbox Mafia was going to order from Teri Teri, asked if I wanted to join them, and I checked out the menu-- and it was certainly a novel experience for me, perusing the items offered for "healthy choices." I decided on the Salmon Plate, which came with salad and rice. Delivery was quick and the prices seemed reasonable. I can't remember what The New Godfather of Lunch or Sir Cheapness (former Godfather of Lunch) ordered, but I had 2 very large pieces of perfectly cooked Salmon, and a massive pile of rice, which I picked at sparingly. The Salmon was delicious and very filling all on its own. And the salad was comprised of quality lettuce (it has always been my experience that if you receive a salad made up chiefly of Iceberg lettuce, you're eating at a cheap...in terms of quality, not necessarily price...restaurant). Once my heart had recovered from the unexpected shock of my healthy eating, I imagined I could hear it offer up a faint but...dare I say it?..."heartfelt" paen of thanks to whatever God or Gods exist that I've finally...at long last... changed my ways? (I think my liver offered up that same paen of thanks when I stopped the drinking and the opioids). In any event, all of my usual verbose nonsense aside, I've liked what I've had from here, and whether your tastes run to heavy, spicy meals or more healthful alternatives when it comes to Japanese cuisine, Teri Teri is highly recommended.

The first four pieces were incredible - some of the best sushi I've ever had. I was so impressed with the quality and precision in preparing each piece. As the meal progressed, there were a couple misses - my boyfriend and his brother both had small bones in a piece (that wasn't supposed to have bones). The chef did provide a replacement piece, but still a bit of a bummer. Additionally, a good chunk of the course were different tuna pieces that really didn't wow me, and tasted pretty similar to one another. The urchin, salmon roe, and wagyu were also not great IMO. I was definitely happy about the overall experience, but it's definitely on the pricey side, and I think there could be a bit more variety throughout the meal.
