Absolutely incredible. We went as soon as it opened because we needed to schedule our meals around…read moreour puppy... So we were there by 510pm. The only issue was that it's a little awkward being the only table in the restaurant and sitting at the sushi bar... Cause we had like eight people attending us and looking at us and listening to our every word. But you can look at it in another way and assume it felt like more of a private dining experience, which is cool. Because it was our first time there, we didn't wanna opt for the Omakase because my husband and I have had mediocre Omakase experiences and they don't come cheap. And something we didn't realize that this place does, that many other Omakase places don't do, is make their sauces in house to pair with the fish. A lot of omakase spots locally don't care to make a budget for sauces when they can get it ready made. A huge unique selling point of this place was at each sauce was separately made and stored in different containers to pair with the fish it was intended for... And when the chef had mentioned that a lot of Omakase places don't do this, It made a lot of sense. We ordered the Hamachi Jalapeño, tuna Crispy rice, tuna 5 ways, single nigiri pieces of sea bream and mackerel on my side and my husband ordered more basic pieces which I can't recall. We also Ordered the Hokkaido scallop cucumber roll. As soon as we tried the apps, we regretted not doing the omakase just because we knew it was gonna be that good. For Context, I haven't found any place in New Jersey that felt like a go to sushi spot that had high-quality fish, incredible pairings and seemingly consistent. The Hamachi jalapeño were bigger cuts of tuna with like this jalapeño paste sauce. It was amazing and proper spicy. No addtl sauce needed. The crispy rice tuna was insane. The hot rice paired with the cold tuna and their fixings were amazing. It didn't look like much, but it packed a huge punch of flavor. I think it might be the wasabi they use But both the wasabi and soy sauce were insanely good The tuna way of our little attempt at omakase ish. They gave you four pieces of Nigiri ( 2 being fatty tuna pieces) And a chopped tuna hand roll. I'm a texture person so I wasn't a fan of the hand, but each piece of tuna was better than the next. The fatty ones were insanely melty and lovely And I just really goes to show that I don't think I've had good high quality, fresh sushi or fish from many places Because no place matched up to this. I had ordered a piece of sea bream which was insanely good. I've never tried anything like that before and if I could, I would order 20 of those alone. The mackerel was really good and not fishy at all as well. The Hokkaido scallop Cucumber roll was very simple, but packed a huge bunch of flavor when you dipped it in the spicy sauce that it was paired with alongside a soy sauce wasabi combo. You could taste the quality and freshness. I was drinking a glass of sparkling wine... The wine was fine before I had the sushi... But drinking a sip while eating my sushi totally changed my palette as the sparkling wine paired so well that it became sweet. Last, but not least the miso cheesecake - Absolutely incredible and made in house. We ordered two more to go And they thought we were joking. That's how good it was. I don't miss New York City when I have sushi from places like this.

Definitely highly recommend though you may need to plan in advance and make a reservation.

In terms of quality, I would rate it in line with Jugemu in Cresskill or Bon in Westwood. Prices are on the steeper side, but you are paying for high quality sushi.

From the outside and inside, it really doesn't look like much. They're currently operating as take-out only - no dining in. The interior is a bit messy and disorganized, but you'll look past that once you try their sushi. Their menu offers your Japanese classics - regular sushi rolls, special sushi rolls, sashimi, bento boxes, udon, salads, soups, tempura, etc. I highly recommend their lunch and dinner specials - it's the best bang for your buck! Everything is reasonably priced and you'll get your money's worth. The full menu is available on their website. You have to call to place your order and then pick it up. You pay once you're there. I don't think they use third-party services anymore like Uber or DoorDash. I've been ordering their lunch special (3 rolls for ~$16 with complimentary soup or salad) and I'm always satisfied. My food takes around 15-20 minutes to be ready, which is very reasonable. I haven't had any issues with the service here. They are efficient, pleasant, and always get my order right. My favorite rolls are the spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and eel & avocado. The fish to rice ratio is perfect. They pack your rolls with a huge portion of fish. The rice is well seasoned with vinegar, sugar, and salt. The tuna and salmon are incredibly fresh and they're actually spicy!!! They even include a few complimentary pieces of deep fried California rolls. This is one of my go-to spots for a satisfying and filling sushi meal. And you cannot beat the price and value!

You get miso soup with your lunch special and the hwe dub bab is very similar to "poke" and bibimbap but everything is more deconstructed (rice on the side, sauce on the side). The fish is all on a bed of veg and looks very bibimbap-like, with a twist (raw seafood). You get a really good portion of different sashimi. We also tried the Usuzukuri appetizer, which is Fluke sashimi with special sauce and roe. Husband got the rolls. Super duper reasonably priced and tastes fresh! The restaurant is owned by a cute Korean couple. Felt very homey. We went back to order food for dinner for the fam. Unagi-don is yummers - the eel and unagi sauce is great. Wish there was more sauce to soak the rice underneath cuz that stuff is addicting. The combo platter is so beautifully put together. Was a huge hit with the family!

The American Dream had pieces but it was filled with too much rice. The amount of wasabi was so little for the 3 rolls and the ginger didn't taste good either. Miso soup was bland too.

A DOMODOMO in Closter?!?…read more Okay, not exactly. But this is definitely a spinoff of DOMODOMO, my favorite Japanese restaurant in Jersey City. Maybe this place can be thought of as a mini DOMODOMO specializing in katsu (fried pork). The food is definitely DOMODOMO quality. Loved the pork katsu - it's fried nice and crispy and packed with flavor in each bite. Chicken katsu was also fried well and delicious. I also enjoyed the niku udon as a nice comforting noodle bowl. And sushi was also delicious and you could taste the freshness of the fish. They have a weekday lunch special but lunch portions were a bit small. Ambiance felt a little more upscale than a standard Japanese place, but not pretentious. Service was very good - waiters were very attentive. We'll be back. We haven't had to make reservations, but that might change as more people discover this place...

The prices? Not bad. The food? Pretty good. Service? Extremely slow…read more I went for a nice dinner on a Friday and they had a lot of parking and seating. I got the 50$ combo to try everything as it comes with a salmon and avocado app, sushi, katsu, and udon. Everything came in courses so it was like a 5 course meal. The app came first and it was a little astringent. The avocado and salmon was just okay. The sushi was not bad. The tuna quality was good but the rice to fish ratio was very off. The hand rolls were also just okay. It was sort of flavorless. The katsu salad was very good! It was crispy and tender but also a little spicy because of the salad. The cold udon was delicious. Definitely recommend the katsu and udon. However, one thing is that the service was extremely slow and disorganized. It was very hard to flag anyone down. There was also a mix up in the kitchen and I think they forgot about our table. All the food came out sporadically. We had to wait close to 40-50 minutes for the katsu to come and that's only because another waitress saw us start to look around. Everyone had finished their food by the time the katsu came. It's a very pretty location and nice ambience.

The rice is also prepared excellently with a good ratio to the sushi, not too much. There are some choices and combinations you normally do no see in specialty rolls including banana and mango, so there are new options to try. But the classic rolls are very good as well. The dine in experience feels a bit dark and a little cramped, but there are plenty of tables. And the friendly staff rounds out the meal.

I stopped into this fairly new, tiny, cute little restaurant…read more There is street parking and public parking lot only 1\2 block away. There are only a few seats lined up against the wall (bar style) and one table of 4. There is a piano too, and they have a sign saying they teach piano. As small as it is the menu is even smaller with maybe 10 food items. But they sell authentic Hawaiian coffees and special grains of Asian rice. Many choices of smoothies & juices as well. Them mango smoothie was a nice size and delicious! I ordered my food to go and had a very short ride so the good was still hot. We tried the Hawaiian Garlic shrimp. Small size was plenty as it had 7 shrimp over sticky rice with some mixed vegetables in a cheesy buttery sauce. It had nice flavor. Also tried was the Hawaiian Ahi Bowl ( poke) which had plenty of fresh tuna with same veggies. Again a small size was plenty. Lastly I tried the Musubi which is a slice of Spam on top of a bar of cooked sticky rice with seaweed paper around it to get it together. Hawaii has been the # consumer of Spam for many years so I had to give it a try. The salty, smokey flavor of the "meat" along with he sticky rice was a good combo, but the seaweed wrap just gave it a slight fishy taste I could do without. I would say to try U'I for a change up for when you are in the mood for Asian food.
