"This cute restaurant is not downtown Ridgewood NJ. However it offers superior Japanese fare and is always busy with regulars and locals. The sushi and sashimi selection is great, they also have Udon dishes and appetizers like Yakitori ,as well as Teriyaki plates (chicken,salmon with rice), all very tasty. It can be a bit crowded on the weekends , its a popular place ! The inside is a bit on the older side and if you make reservations ask for a booth, better than the tables or eating at the sushi bar (small space). They also have plenty of take-out orders on the week-end, so try to get in before 7:00pm to avoid lines."

"Best Japaneese restaurant in Bergen County. They always serve fresh and authentic food. Highly recommended!"

"Little bit outside of Ridgewood downtown area, this restaurant is located in a beautiful garden area, with their own parking lot. The inside of the restaurant appears old and under maintained. But their has lots of goodies, sushi, sashimi, udon, katsu, all of them either in combos or individual dishes. I loved the spider and dragon rolls. They were large pieces, rice was soft, they were well made. Got the chicken karaage combo as well. Chicken was little over fried to my liking. Miso soup and rice bowl were good. The combo plate had lots of chicken, easily shareable between two. Service is pretty good. We didn’t have to wait long to order or to get our food. Overall we had a nice weekend lunch, but not impressive enough for a return."

"Good food, not the best sushi we’ve ever had but decent for a local authentic Japanese restaurant. We loved the fried tofu appetizer and mochi ice cream. Very good service, enjoyed our night."
