    Fish smelled. Mackerels are tough I know. But if they are fresh and done right I love to eat them. But the mackerels served as part of omakase here were all smelly and fishy. The soup served in the beginning of the course had 3 pieces of tuna roll literally dunked into it. And they called it chazuke. I was confused. And those tuna rolls inside the soup also smelled very fishy. I’m a sushi lover and have had omakase from the best places so I know when things are done right. If you are served mackerel with kelp pieces on top, there’s no way but for it to smell fishy. I think the chef needs to really rethink some of the pieces… But the service was nice.

    Chef did an amazing job with the omakase course. Every bite was so flavorful and beautiful, BUT I will say the service was not the best and definitely took away from the dining experience. The minute we walked in we were met with cold shoulders by the hostess, and even our waiter was curt not even stopping by once to ask if everything is ok or to even refill our water. I don’t think Shumi is worth it. I would suggest driving an extra mile up the road to Fort Lee where there are amazing sushi/omakase restaurants with far better service.

    Both locations, Leonia and Ridgewood are excellent. This was my third visit to the Leonia location and was great once again. My wife and I met up with another couple and they loved it as well. The decor is clean and modern. The food was outstanding.

    We’ve been to the Ridgewood location couple times, this is the first time at Leonia location. It’s more spacious than the Ridgewood location. The staffs are super nice and friendly. Me and my wife are both surprised as we haven’t received service like this in a long time especially dining as a family with young children. The food is good, I got the chef special omakase, my wife got an appetizer and roll, and my kids had ramen. We’ll definitely come back.

    Before I visited this place, I visited this place, and I visited with my parents.I ate roll and salad, but it was so deliciousIn particular, there was the best.There were many people because of the mother's day, but I was also friendly and middle of the staff Still, Shumi is also an omakase. The best quality for the price. I couldn't eat sashimi because I was pregnant, but I will visit again to eat omakase after I have a baby

    Price value is not there Omalase $140 pp is not really unique foods for people familiar with Japanese cuisine. Sauces were repetitive with yuzu kosho on top of the fish, spicy flavor etc. more like Korean type flavors than Japanese. Food was not presented in a highly artistic way. Just standard food- salmon tuna (3 types) scallop egg. Very disappointing experience. Basic fare at outrageous price. Price gouging and left hungry. Not recommended
