Although this is an authentic Japanese place, but their Sushi is just average.

I’ve only had takeout from this place, and my experiences have been amazing. Generous portions and beautiful presentation. My new go-to sushi place when I want to stay in!
When one of the servers has an attitude about being helped by other servers. Of course you'll get a bad reviews. Whoever the lady is with the fake accent, punk vibe. Needs to be fired. Using profanities isn't

Komegashi Too couldn't be easier to get to from New York City. As soon as I exited the Newport PATH station, all I had to do was cross the street and I was there. Now, I wouldn't say their sushi is better than what can be found in New York City, but it's better than many of the other Japanese restaurants I've been to in New Jersey. The ingredients were fresh, especially the avocado, and the portion sizes were reasonable. I must admit that I wasn't a fan of the ambience; it was dark and dreary inside, and while the employees were friendly, the restaurant didn't feel very welcoming overall. In addition, it was freezing, to the point where I had to wear my coat. I still enjoyed eating here, but unless the dining conditions I experienced were a fluke, I would recommend ordering delivery from Komegashi Too instead.

I am compelled to share my experiences with the food delivery service, which, regrettably, have not met expectations on a couple of occasions. My orders have been delivered late twice, significantly impacting the quality of the dining experience as the food arrived cold. The reasons provided for these delays were issues with the delivery bikes. While I understand that unexpected challenges can occur, the recurrent nature of these problems suggests a deeper issue that might be affecting the efficiency and reliability of the service.The concept of relying on bikes for delivery is commendable for its environmental benefits; however, when mechanical issues become a frequent excuse for late deliveries, it raises concerns about the maintenance and management of the delivery fleet. This recurring issue has led to a diminished dining experience, not just in terms of enjoyment but also in the quality and temperature of the food upon arrival.In light of these experiences, I believe there is a significant opportunity for improvement. Regular maintenance checks on the delivery bikes, better contingency planning for unexpected issues, and perhaps a review of the delivery time estimates provided to customers could enhance the reliability of the service. Ensuring that food is delivered hot and on time is crucial for customer satisfaction and should be a priority.I hope my feedback is received in the constructive spirit in which it is intended. My aim is to see an improved service that consistently delivers not just food, but also satisfaction and reliability. Thank you for considering my review.

My MIL just moved into the Newport area and we had spent a long day setting up the apartment. Kura Sushi was quoting a 60+ minute wait, so we decided to hop over to Komegashi instead. They have a large menu, that has a very odd layout on their website. It's standard, Americanized Japanese food. You have your standard sushi rolls, specialty rolls, dons, teriyaki chicken, etc. The food was solidly OK - your standard, Americanized Japanese takeout that you get when you're craving a Philadelphia roll. It's close, but I think I have better options in the area that I would choose from instead. Service was attentive and nice.
Excellent lunch combo and scenic Hudson River views. Ordered the mixed tempura appetizer and Katsu curry with rice. The curry was savory and peppery, with a slight heat and generous mix of onions, potatoes, and carrots. The pork katsu was golden-brown on the outside and juicy on the inside.The mixed tempura was well-executed. The batter was crispy, the shrimp and vegetables were fresh.Paid $33 after tax and tip and was FULL. If you back out the tempura the meal would be around $20. Overall worth it for the service, quantity, and quality of food.Vegetarian options: Vegetable only tempura, vegetable sushi options.

Good spot for a view of downtown while enjoying a sushi roll. Lychee martini was delicious. Server was very nice and friendly, cracking jokes every once in a while. We had a good time here and will be coming back.Parking: Parking is difficult in the area but they will validate it if you ask.

Every time I come over from Germany, the Komegashi is my first dinner place in the US. Never disappointed me. The food is great, especially the rolls are stellar, and with a reservation at the window (needs calling by phone) you have a great view of lower Manhattan and the World Trade Center. Staff is super friendly and the prices are surprisingly moderate. Btw.: extensive Sake (wine-) list too.

The waiter was disrespectful when having a meal.
