    Quiet afternoon
    Ed M.

    Sat outside and inside. We ordered red curry, salads, and sushi. Portions were just ok. Food was fresh. Nothing fancy. Wife ordered adamane, was good. Red Lantern was closed for a month due to Covid-19. The takeout order experience was fairly smooth but the food was not good. The spicy sushi roll wasn't exactly spicy, wasn't as presented in menu and tasted like a California roll drenched in Cole slaw. The spring rolls were not as crispy as usual. Nice try though

    Golden Sesame Chicken. Not sure what makes it golden tho.

    Listen up: Definitely come for the sushi. Definitely make sure you got some extra dough in the back account too. Fresh n' delicious sushi + excellent presentation = $$$ It's raw fish. Of course you want the freshest and finest ingredients to tickle those taste buds. The hefty prices for their specialty rolls are justified, I promise! Their combination rolls are some of the most unique I've seen. Needless to say, I was pretty impressed with our "Under the Sea" and "Long Valley" rolls. C'mon, seared pepper tuna on top of a roll... ingenious! (And freakin delicious) While I was least impressed with our hot entree, the golden sesame chicken (which was more breading than chicken) I can still say I was continuously impressed with their presentation. If you eat with your eyes first, you're going to love Red Lantern. The detail they put into their presentation can't be missed! The service - impeccable. I'll confess: my brain cells are dwindling and half the time I can't even remember what rolls I've ordered. Our server, my saving grace, gave us a complete overview of each dish and roll when it was delivered to our table. I'm talking COMPLETE overview. Like when the contestants on Top Chef present their dishes to the judge. Impeccable I tell ya. If you're in this neck of the woods, follow my motto of "treat yo self" and stop in for some fantastic rolls!

    Hot and sour soup. Delicious!

    My fiancé and I were visiting family in Long Valley and had a free afternoon. So we decided to find a place for a quiet lunch. Her family told us about a new sushi bar that had just opened up right down the road, so we decided to give it a shot. Man were we impressed! We ordered the hot and sour soup to start, which is my lady's all-time favorite. She said it was some of the best she's had! Moved on to the Hamachi Crush (see my pics) something I've never really seen on a menu before. It was very delicate but still so much flavor! They have a lot of specialty sushi that is sold by the piece, but we decided to go a more traditional route, which was also easier on my wallet. We ordered the Philly roll and an eel avocado roll, 6 pieces, both very good! Then, our waitress Chrissy (who was awesome and very attentive) came back with some pieces of sushi compliments of the chef. One of the pieces was a white tuna with sweet Mizo sauce and kiwi (which Chrissy described as "dessert sushi"). Now, the place is small, quiet, quaint and clean. Which was perfect. They have a small wine list (which the owner, James, assured me was getting a little bigger next week) and a very good cold sake selection. If anyone is looking for excellent sushi at a reasonable price this is your place!

    Hot 15 sashimi.

    One word... FANTASTIC!!! if you are a real sushi eater, you will really appreciate this neighborhood gem. Authentic preparation with a far superior presentation. Their chef takes the time to make every single dish come out with its own "personality". This was our 5th visit here and each time it has been better than the prior. The Red Lantern not only rivals, it surpasses some of the most well known sushi restaurants in Manhattan. I have been to Nobu and Sushi Yasuda many times and the Red Lantern offers a superior experience for a fraction of the cost and 50 miles closer.

    Update on the below: just received a Facebook message from the owners of this restaurant(I sent them a message on feb 10 about what happened and now 6 weeks later I get a reply) and they told me to go fu*k myself cuz no one else will and that I'm a "nasty bit*h". Please don't spend your money in a place who's owners think it's ever okay to speak to another human being like that. UDE RUDE RUDE!!! They change prices on you and treat you like shit. I have given this place so many chances to redeem themselves. I called and placed an order at 6:40 PM tonight, I was told my order would be ready in 15 to 20 minutes. I arrived at 7pm and was told that my order would be ready in 10 minutes.My order was not ready until 7:22 PM. That is completely unacceptable. The woman behind the counter (not the girl behind the register a brunette American waitress) refused to look at me and told me that next time they would "consider" telling somebody in accurate timing- no apology at all- no "sorry we kept you waiting" . Kind of pathetic that they would make somebody wait so long when the restaurant isn't even full! When I called back and asked to speak to the manager I was told none was available and was hurried off the phone. This place is completely overpriced, overstaffed, and definitely not worth your time. If you want good sushi and good service where they actually respect you and respect the fact you're spending your hard earned money go to Fujiama in Hackettstown. It's BYOB and a manager is the nicest person ever!

    Carpaccio
    Gwendolyn J.

    excellent choices, lovely ambience, lovely presentation, friendly atmosphere, and close to home. 3 Diners- A bit pricey but everything we ate was worth the cost. Carpaccio app., shrimp tempura roll, the dinner for two ... OMG good! and a very nice sticky rice for dessert. I have had Sushi in all over the world... this held its own as one of the top 5 places I have eaten Sushi. They even have sake - none of us are drinkers but its there for those who are... id have given 4.5 but not an option. i have NEVER given a 5.
