    Service can be better. Some of them can not understand English. Can’t even put a dish on a table flat.

    Every dish in the omakase was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was excellent. They even provided a special celebration service when they heard we visited for a family special event, making the experience even more memorable and enjoyable.

    The atmosphere, the food, the eye to detail, this place is simply perfection! We been going here for years and the restaurant will forever remain as number one in our books. This is as close to perfection as it gets.

    Really good to phenomenal food, (depending on what you order)coupled with attentive service makes for a wonderful experience! Truthfully, you wouldn’t expect to find a place this good in Leonia - you’d ordinarily have to go into the city for this level of elevated cuisine

    I wanted to love it, but I didn’t . My husband and I ordered the Omakase express  and the other two people in our party ordered the three course dinner special. We asked for separate checks because we were ordering higher priced items.  We received our appetizers and each time I needed to ask the waiter what is this so I knew what I was eating. Our guest received their entrées and we waited a good 10 minutes before we got ours.  The staff were walking around with bored, sullen look on their faces.  We finally received the rest of our order yet our guests were already finished eating. Fish was fresh and tasty. However, I had expected to receive it one piece at a time with an explanation of each item. Also for the price we paid we would like to have received more food. Finally, the bill came, and there were not two bills as requested, but one for the whole table. Very disappointed with the service, and the experience in general. Will not return.  also realize that they automatically put five stars down for my review. Don’t believe it I give it a two.

    I have been enjoying the unparalleled sushi cuisine of Ike and his assistants at Shumi for around 20 years, and his most recent outpost in Leonia is the best yet.  The full Omakase –five appetizers and 21 pieces of sushi – is well worth the price of admission, and the fish could not be fresher.  Our party of four was so pleased that Ike took maybe 10 minutes to visit with us at our table, with hugs just like an old friend. He is a master at what he does, and I cannot imagine a soul that would be remotely disappointed with any aspect of Shumi.

    Omakase from Shumi is the best I have ever had. The fish is fresh and the flavors are on point.

    One of our favorite restaurants in NJ/NY area. The staff is so attentive and the food is out of this world. It simply melts in your mouth. It’s an amazing gem that we found a few years back and we been coming here ever since. Never had a meal that was not up to standard. It’s always above and beyond!
