Sushi Aoki - Japanese owner chef Omakase

The appetizers, sushi, and dessert were all excellent. My husband and I regularly have omakase in NYC and this was really a step above the rest. Truly outstanding. The service and overall experience were very good. It is BYOB.

We had a wonderful first experience at Aoki. The directions provided after our reservation were very clear, so it was easy to find the location. From the moment we walked in, we could tell how much care went into everything from the plates and water glasses to the interior design. Every piece of sushi crafted by the chef was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The plating was beautiful and clean, which made the experience even more special. It’s truly rare to find a place like this in New Jersey. The ingredients were fresh, and we were able to try many unique types of fish that we don’t usually had before in NJ. We chose the $200 omakase course, which offered a wide variety of dishes, all prepared with great attention to detail. Even the dessert, handmade by the owner, was absolutely delicious

I went this place celebrate my birthday and everything was so fresh and delicious!!! I had the most tender and flavorful octopus, squid, and snow crab of my life…. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly and they even took amazing photos of me and my husband. It was such a wonderful experience..and I can’t wait to come back!!

If you don’t feel like going all the way to the city, then this is a great place to go for omakase sushi! Husband and I decided to go with the $150 course and it did not disappoint. Chef crafted every sushi and appetizer with perfection and server was very generous throughout our time there. Inside the restaurant gave off relaxing vibe and almost felt like you were sitting in a sushi restaurant in Japan. Overall, great place for date night and highly recommend for anyone looking to dine in fort lee for top notch sushi quality!

Authentic intimate BYOB omakase experience. High quality sushi from Japan. Really easy to make a reservation over the phone. Cons : would love to have seen a written out menu of everything , it would of helped with the language barrier. Also, high end reusable chop sticks would of been better for this experience instead of the cheap wooden chop sticks that you get with to-go orders. I also would have liked to have gotten more soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger with our courses. We got it served during the first course and then it was taken away. We didn’t have any during the rest of the 15 courses.
