I've been here before but never had any specialty roles until I came with a friend cuz they're so big. I think it's the best Sushi Japanese restaurant in the area. We had fried Gyoza to start - very good. And then ordered off the special rolls menu and got a Double Decker, Sunshine, and Caterpillar rolls. WOW! Of course, we dug in instantly and I didn't remember to get a photo until we started to slow down. Each one was unique in that the Double Decker had a sauce on it that was slightly sweet but not overwhelming, Sunshine was rolled in caviar so it had that pop and the Caterpillar was crunchy. They were exceptional. 2 Sapporo in chilled mugs. Great food. read more

Jerry-San's Sushi Bar - Sushi Bars Near Me - Branford, Connecticut

I had a dinner near Jerry-San's, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit JS's because it's been on my Try List for a while. I popped in maybe around 8:30 on a Friday night. It was hopping, but there were some tables available. I ordered a Traffic Light Roll to go. Salmon. Tuna. Avocado. Pickled Radish. Wasabi Caviar. The rice was wrapped in nori. I liked this roll a lot. The fish and other ingredients were well cared for. The roll was attractive and tasted very good. I just got a little sample, but my initial impression of Jerry-SAN's matched my impression. The restaurant was comfortable and service was friendly and efficient. 4.5 Stars read more

Omg I thought this place closed for good, when they disappeared from West Haven. So happy I found my favorite Connecticut sushi spot reopened again! It's in an easy to miss spot in Branford, but don't let that fool you. The quality is really good and I adore their "jumbo rolls". Great spot for Tobiko lovers. read more

The sushi was absolutely fresh and delicious. Started with Miso soup,seaweed salad and Squid salad . Both were full of flavor. Entrees were Sushi Sashimi combo and Spicy Scallop Roll. Everything thing was fresh and delicious. The food was not cheap for the amount they gave you, however they made it up in quantity. read more

The salmon is like butta in your mouth! The tuna firm and soft at the same time... and the eel... OMG... hadn't been there in a long time and it was excellent!!! And of course Jerry and Jade are so great to see:) If you have never been there WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR:) Definitely get the wasabi shumi ! Best Sushi/sashimi you will ever have ! read more

Don't judge a book by its cover is very applicable to Daiko Jerry San's Sushi Bar. The outside is rather unassuming and easily missed when driving down the main road. The inside of the restaurant is clean, organized, and decorated in a somewhat simple fashion. The magnificent, spectacular, phenomenal, and extraordinary part of coming to this restaurant is the sushi. The hand crafted sushi rolls, soups & housemade sauces are impressive. Everything was super fresh and delicious. We are thankful and delighted to be able to follow Jerry and his amazing sushi to this new location. read more

If I could rate this place with 10 stars I would! I just moved back to East Haven from Los Angeles and I was told this was a great place for Sushi. I had no idea what I was in store for. It was delicious, fresh, great atmosphere and the special hand rolls that were made for me are the best I have ever had! If you want great sushi this is the best place to go in town. I hope this reaches Andrew Zimmern because he needs to come here and taste sublime sushi made by a master chef. read more

I love this place! It's so cute and cozy. The staff is friendly and attentive. The sushi is the best sushi around. Everything is so fresh. I love sitting at the sushi bar and watching the sushi chef make our sushi. It's truly an art. We've been twice since they opened here and the owner seems to have a very loyal customer base and that says a lot about him and the food. So glad that Jerry-San's has come to Branford and am looking forward to trying more rolls next time. read more

Recently saw that Jerry Sans Sushi (formerly of west haven) has reopened in Branford!! I think it's only been open two weeks and every time I drive by it's packed. Went in on a Tuesday night and it was super busy! My friend loved this place when it was located in west haven. I had the Kani Sald to start, which was great and a nice spicy kick! For rolls I had crunchy spicy tuna and shrimp and avocado roll. Both were great! My dining companions enjoyed their rolls and dishes, although one commented on too much rice in rolls. At any rate..Happy to have a new sushi spot in town! read more

A bit hidden in location, Jerry-San's is modest on the outside and clean and cute on the inside. The service is excellent; our waitress made sure we always had everything we needed. The sushi is very fresh and you can tell it's made with love. I had seaweed salad, a california roll, rock n' roll and shrimp tempura roll, which were all very tasty. My husband tried the chicken teriyaki dinner which he said was excellent. We went early in the evening and it started to get busy mid meal, so I'm sure it would be super busy at prime time dinner hour. We will return for sure! read more

Takeout only. Food was fine. No complaints; nothing extraordinary. Despite the early mid-week time, the sushi bar was packed with customers; most of which seemed to be regulars. Maybe this is the best way to experience Jerry-San's. read more

Everyone kept telling me to visit this restaurant, and now I can see why! From the moment you walk in, you can tell that there are a lot of regulars, and everyone loves coming back repeatedly. it also feels like a very cozy family restaurant. We ordered so many dishes for our table to try and were not disappointed by any of them. We tried everything from the sake cocktails to the spicy mussels and of course a few different sushi rolls. All I can say is that the hype is absolutely warranted and I will be back for more! read more

Jerry San's Sushi Bar is my favorite place for sushi. Jerry and his staff are friendly and welcoming. His food is very creative and high quality. I have been a customer of his at his old location as well, so a loyal customer for over 25 years. read more

Everyone's favorite sushi guy is Jerry. I always have a great time here. Jerry is so friendly and interactive with his customers. His wife is one of the main hosts, and she is great too, all the staff is. Highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar, and getting to know the chef himself! Great guy, great business. Sushi is very good, and their spicy bomb sauce is one of my favorite sauces ever. I usually leave buying a container of it. Only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because if it's packed there's not a lot of parking or space inside. I've sometimes had to wait awhile , and I find their philly roll to be very fishy. It's a little dark inside the restaurant, but they've got some fun pieces of art on the wall. I love the hand rolls there, and highly recommend their special rolls! If you challenge jerry to a chug off with a saki bomb - he will probably beat you every time! The guy is a champ! read more

Praise God Jerry came out of retirement...... the world is a little better today. Order off of the front of the menu for the best rolls. But tbh, I never had a bad bite in over 20 years eating at Jerry's restaurant's! read more

I'm in disbelief. I was so excited to finally try this place one time instead of takumi right down the street. WORST MISTAKE EVER!!!! this place is disgusting. i ordered a spicy crunchy kani salad that had ZERO CRUNCH, soggy and warm and smelt like dog food. The rolls were warm as well and pure mush. the service was decent. my sister told the waiter it was tasteless and the waiter tried to makeup for it by bringing over spicy mayo and eel sauce. we then realized the dog food smell and taste was coming from the spicy mayo which was odd???? definitely save the money and time and go down the street to Takumi!!!! GROSS BLAH BLAH BLAH A WASTE OF $80!!!!! read more

WOW. Looks like we have a new favorite sushi place in town! Took my girls out tonight to try Jerry-san's new location. I went to the original location once like 10 years ago - I was underwhelmed but people whose taste I trust raved about it so I chalked it up to an off night. Well, last night, it was spot-on! The quality of the fish is excellent, and their not-entirely-traditional menu is very compelling. I had the double-decker roll and white tuna sushi. Both were delicious! Oh and pork gyoza for an appetizer, which was also excellent. We will be going back again and again! read more

Best Japanese food in Connecticut! There is nothing that compares to Jerry-San's sashimi and sushi rolls!!
