Been to this Kyoto a number of times, every time the waitresses and rollers are very friendly. The sushi and sashimi is good and fresh every time we've come. However, I've noticed the rolls are a very small portion. Usually two rolls is filling.. here two rolls was not enough. Still though, would come back.

I was looking for a sushi place that was open for labor day so I decided to give this place a try. I wanted to try a few of their specialty rolls and a few pieces of sushi so I got the Incredible Roll, the Spicy Lobster Roll, tuna sushi and salmon sushi. The tuna and salmon sushi were generous portions but a little pricey. Each one came with 2 pieces and cost $6.50. The fish tasted good but wasn’t anything special. It did satisfy that sushi itch though which was great! As for the specialty rolls I really liked the incredible roll! The shrimp tempura was delicious and it was a good size portion. The spicy lobster roll was just ok. Lobster is usually hit or miss for me and this time it wasn’t my favorite. Next time I’ll definitely end up trying a different roll. All in all it was a good experience and I’ll definitely come back again if I’m in the area. The staff was friendly in the short interaction I had with them so hopefully I’ll be able to dine in next time.

Outstanding little sushi place located in the small town of Cedar Grove NJ. Loved the sashimi platter and the Unagi (eel). I only have two things to say to the warm and friendly people at Kyoto Sushi: Arigato Gozaimasu!

I love it here! Food is amazing and the staff is so pleasant and respectful. Not to mention how clean and beautiful the music and decorum is! 10/10

Very nice sushi restaurant with friendly, efficient service. Had a roast duck roll, which I haven’t seen before, and my standard eel roll for dessert. The fish was fresh and the roast duck was excellent! Will definitely return if I find myself in the area again.

I've largely been tepid on Kyoto Sushi over the years; I had a sit-down dinner there maybe six or seven years ago that was hit or miss (Kyoto Roll was really, really good, but the Godzilla Roll had a few fishy bites, which is the kiss of death for me, sushi-wise), and I avoided it for a while. That's also partly due to discovering Kenko Sushi in Lincoln Park, which is the best sushi I've ever had and puts pretty much everything else to shame. Since COVID, I've started ordering lunch here from time to time for pickup. It's a quick drive and with a little firsthand knowledge of the parking lot layouts nearby, you can easily avoid the drama on Route 23 if needed. In terms of service, you're obviously not dealing with waitstaff when picking up, but I haven't had to hang out awkwardly in the restaurant for ages waiting for my pre-ordered food to arrive - that aspect of the experience had been consistently solid, and the girl behind the register is always pleasant. Over the past few months, I've been ordering sweet potato ($5) and salmon & avocado ($6.95) rolls. Both have been decent for the most part, especially the salmon/avocado. Once, the sweet potato wasn't cooked enough, and another time there was an overly crunchy layer that was tough to chew through, but 90% of the time it's been fine. I also tried the sushi pizza appetizer with spicy tuna ($8.95) a few weeks ago - a wee bit messy but very tasty. My opinion of Kyoto overall hasn't changed too much from my first experience, but I've adjusted my expectations as well. At the risk of beating a dead horse, if you're really famished and want to go balls to the wall with special rolls, I'd head up 23 to Kenko, but the regular rolls do the job here - there's no shame in ordering from a place that is a solid double versus a guaranteed home run.

Enjoyed their Bento box, its good and inexpensive. But miss that they no longer include a piece or 2 of tempura.

Great sushi and sashimi. Service and cleanliness was on point. I would recommend this place to all.

kyoto has been my favorite sushi place for years. the staff are so friendly & the food is amazing. make sure you order in advance on weekends because they can get super busy!! but it just shows how much people love them.

If you’re ordering from here literally order 2 hours in advance. I waited Friday at 730pm for an 1 HOUR 30 minutes. I had already paid otherwise I’d just forget it. Never again.
