Sushi Laco

BEST sushi around North Jersey! I come here all the time. The Cinderella roll is a must have! The lunch special is an amazing deal and even when you come for dinner they offer it for just $ 2 more. The fish is always fresh and I have never had a bad experience here. The owner and all employees are so friendly and genuinely happy to see you. If I could give this restaurant more than 5 stars, I would!

amazing! their special rolls and lunch specials are so good. i especially enjoyed the tempura and the sashimi, and service is friendly, attentive, and quick

Went here with a large group of 9. Service was excellent and owner was very accommodating. They did a great job of educating us on what would be good options for the group. We ordered two boats. They have a special on boats where you can order specific numbers of specialty rolls and sushi. This is a BYOB which we did not know. Would definitely go back.

I’ve been coming to this location many times since my last review in 2012. Decided to come in about 45 minutes before closing on a Saturday night. The lovely owner welcomed my party of 4 and gave us a seat immediately. The gentleman that waited (possible owner as well?) on us did not seem as eager or happy for the last minute service. He stated twice that they will close in 45 min and orders need to be placed in the next 15 min. Not a problem for us. We ordered promptly and with some requests. My sister can’t eat mayo — please hold the spicy sauce on her veggie roll and my brother can’t eat meat — please hold the chicken in his noodles. Easy enough right? Our orders came out and the roll had spicy mayo slathered all over it. Again, not a problem just take it back and redo it. The waiter was so impatient and actually tried to sell us on keeping it! Eventually he took it back. My brother’s noodles came out with chicken on top. Again, the waiter tried to tell us to just remove the chicken. It’s not that easy buddy. I was in such a shock at his actions that I calmly but firmly told the waiter none of this was acceptable. He was angry at how long the orders were taking to be brought back out correctly and then the fact we were eating closer to the closing time. If the orders were correct the first time, we wouldn’t have been there so long! funny thing is, we only left maybe 10 min after closing. Customer service is equally important as the food being served and I would have given 2 stars but the food was great once again. I’m turned off at returning to Laco right now but I may in the future.

Wow to the wow degree! I look at the menu and front and center, it suggests a sushi roll called the burning sensation. Well now I gotta order it! WAIT THEY LIT IT ON FIRE!!! Oh they did. Hands down the best sushi roll I’ve ever had.
After the light show, we proceed to stuff our faces with 7 different kinds of rolls that were perfect in size and texture. And they came on a boat that I proceeded to take apart while the waitress looked away.
This is our new favorite sushi place hands down.

Such a pleasant surprise — good quality sushi deep in suburbia. I had to convince my wife to even give it a chance while on a drive — we live on the coast and have some concerns around the freshness of inland sushi — but once we came here we were glad we did. The sushi was really good and well presented, prepared quickly and served with a smile by friendly staff, at affordable prices. We would be more than happy to return here any time.

Wonderfull place the rice of the rolls was just perfect, its one of the best sushi places in town long list of sushi plates and the fried rice w/​chicken its a most have.

4 STARS for food. Sushi here is actually pretty good. This is my go-​to spot for sushi in town. There are some good Korean dishes on the menu that are worth trying.
2 STARS for misleading hours of operation. Despite menu and website stating that they close at 9:30pm, the kitchen closes at 8:45pm and will not serve/​deliver.

Good food. The owner is hands on and well ran. waiting staff is knowledgeable and attentive.
Recommend and will go back for sure.

Really good experience here Tuesday night for dinner. We arrived about an hour before closing so we were the only table in the house, but the service was great and the food was better than expected for strip mall sushi. Definitely get one of the «boxes» — I got one that came with soup and salad, a special sushi roll of your choice, sushi and sashimi, shrimp and vegetable tempura, and some edamame all for $ 21. They also gave us two complimentary pieces of this amazing hand torched salmon sushi. Stop in and you won’t be disappointed.
*Protip — the only difference here between the low sodium and regular soy sauce here is that they seem to add water to the low sodium, which was a bit off putting, but nonetheless I had a good experience.

Ok this review is not based on sushi even though its a sushi place. My husband loves sushi and thats why we came here.
They start you off with complimentary tea. but they do not have any substitute sweetener.
We ordered the pork dumplings and they were very good
My husband ordered the sashimi delux. which is a bunch of raw fish. he said it was very good and very fresh.
I ordered the chicken tempura box. very good and filling…
Miso soup is very good as well.
we ordered there ice cream. green tea and red bean… the red bean is out of this world… so good!
Service was outstanding… the waiter even brought over a complimentary shrimp sushi. We dont know the name of it but it was so good…
Even though I am not a sushi person I would defiantly go back!

I stopped by for dinner with a friend last night and was pleasantly surprised~ I usually don’t expect a whole lot from sushi restaurants but their specialty rolls were amazing! We ordered 5 rolls and all of them were delicious in their own way. My favorite was the Burning Sensation roll which had a really nice spicy kick to it (definitely give this roll a try!). If I had to choose my least favorite out of the bunch it would have had to be the Sunny roll because their special sauce was a bit too sweet for me (I’m more of a spicy person). For those who love spicy mayo and eel sauce, check out their New Cali roll! The service was great, we really enjoyed our meal and left the restaurant happy with satisfied tummies!
It was a little bit of a drive for me but it was worth it! Will be back soon with more company!

Every time we get that craving for sushi — Sushi Laco gives us the perfect meal! The Cinderella roll is fantastic. Love the spicy tuna roll too — perfectly balanced.
Great food and great service

Haven’t found a sushi spot better than Sushi Laco! I used work a few blocks away and would order pick up at least once a week. Absolutely love their sushi! The seafood always taste fresh, the rice is always the perfect texture, the staff is so polite. I changed jobs over 2 years ago and still come here. I bring my friends and they all switch to this sushi spot! Dining in is always a fun experience. The owner always walks around and makes conversation. He also will surprises you with some free tasting of different sushi. I definitely recommend this place!

Great place for lunch! I’m horrible when it comes to estimating how much sushi I’ll eat so I got the special C which was one special roll and one regular roll. We also got a chicken teriyaki box. They give you SOO much food. The chicken teriyaki box comes with enough juicy chicken and sticky rice with 4 pieces of California roll and a bunch of edamame. The sushi rolls also came with edamame and 2 gyozas. And 2 miso soups! We had enough left over for a small lunch the next day.
The rock and roll roll was delicious as was the smoked philly roll although you couldn’t really taste the smokiness of the salmon in the smoked philly roll.
The waiters were super nice and quick to answer any questions we had. I’m glad this is by where I work, I will be coming back.

The best around. I say this with sincere truth. I have eaten sushi from all over the world, and I am so please to say that my all time favorite and most enjoyable sushi place is within arms reach of where I live.
I have become one of their best customers they even took a roll that I created and put it on their newest menu. It’s called the «Casper Roll». you will not be disappointed.
5 letters: FRESH!

Might be my favorite sushi place! Great brown rice rolls and their seaweed salad is perfect. Prices are reasonable and if you eat there they sometimes come around and give you some freebie sushi pieces.

I go out of my way for the sushi here. I like to consider myself on the picky side when it comes to sushi, and Sushi LaCo remains the freshest fish I’ve come across in a restaurant. My favorites here are still the very first two I tried, Crunch Crunch and New Kani. I’d never had salmon skin (it’s cut to be more than skin alone, adding to flavor) in a sushi roll before and honestly imagined it’d be too fishy for my taste, but I was ALL THE WAY WRONG! It was such a delicious mix of texture and flavor that I have to have it each time I drive 30 mins to visit.
The staff is also worth mentioning. Always so pleasant, they greet everyone upon entering and if you become a familiar face, they (I believe the owner and his wife perhaps?) take care to build upon that relationship. They like to chat with regulars and while I imagine that may be irritating to some, I find it a desirable personal touch. From my chats, it seems really important to them to exceed the standards in quality of ingredients, food preparation and presentation. They put a lot of care into my plate, and for that, I am appreciative. SushiLaCo has a regular for life in me:)

So far, Sushi Laco is the best place for Sushi nearby. My coworkers and I tend to go here every Friday for «Sushi Fridays». We usually arrive with a party of 5 or more. They only have one table that can accommodate more than 4 people, so we usually arrive around 11:45 because it can get really busy/​packed.
We usually go with the lunch specials of either 2 special rolls, or 1 special roll w/​1 regular roll. Their special rolls are really good. My favorites are the V.I.P. and the Yum Yum Roll.

The people here are very nice. Super nice
I came here after work one day. It was a late night. I ordered miso soup, California, and Philly.
The only bad thing was that they forgot the cream cheese in the Philly. I was looking forward to it haha as always. But it was still good. The miso soup was so delicious. I could have licked the bowl. I should have haha. The two chefs behind the sushi bar gave me a crab sashimi on the house. It was with spicy mayo and I think eel sauce. It was delicious. Their rice is cooked perfectly and the fish taste pretty fresh.
Would definitely order lunch to go here.
