We moved to Seaside Park from NY about 18 months ago and after eating at a few places I had effectively given up on eating sushi down here at all. Just being turned off by the local offering, for a while I passed over even trying Hoshino until last night.Let me just start by saying this is the best sushi in the area, and it's not even close!It's very authentic, with focus on quality of ingredients. People who complain about the portion size/price have no idea what authentic sushi is, and should stay in their lane. If you want big floppy pieces of lower grade sashimi, Xina is right over the bridge.While waiting for our meal, we overheard a gentleman at the table next to us say this is very good sushi, that it reminds him of NYC. He isn't wrong. I have extensive experience eating at sushi restaurants in the city and Japan, and this is as close as it gets.While I had sushi my girlfriend had the beef negimaki, and it was also very good. Bonus points for putting Toro on the menu and actually having it. Too many sushi restaurants say they have Toro but then never do.If we had one complaint, it would be the wait time. It seems they only had one server and so things moved a bit slowly. However, Bill, our server, was very nice and polite despite having to run around and serve several tables at once.Moving forward there is no doubt we will be eating here frequently.

This restaurant is kid friendly and serves delicious sushi! We went to Lavallette the last weekend in October when the weather was summer-like. After spending the day on the beach, we went to Hoshino for sushi. There are two larger rooms in the restaurant and they put us in the section for families, not couples. Great idea! We weren't nervous our two kids (4 and 7) would bother other diners. The waitress was fabulous. Friendly, attentive, very cheerful. Kids loved the miso soup, the cucumber roll and spicy salmon roll. My husband and I really enjoyed the Crazy Salmon Roll and the Incredible Roll. Not a ton of rice-which I like! The place was packed, but they didn't seem to have enough staff. Maybe they weren't expecting such a crowd on a fall weekend? We waited a bit for our sushi (@45 minutes), but it was worth the wait! This is a BYOB. We will definitely try it again! By the way, this restaurant is somehow connected to Blu Sushi in Normandy. We tried to go there but it's closed for the season. We checked their website and they mentioned Hoshino!

Great spot along 35 in Lavallete! The owner was professional and provided great service. Went in during lunch on a weekday during off-peak season. My wife and I had the Chicken Teriyaki Bento Lunch Set. We also ordered a side of Sweet Potato Tempura Roll and Fried Dumplings. The meal was perfectly prepared and tasted great. Prices were fair considering the location. The pitcher of ice water with lemon & cucumber slices was a nice touch.

Best sushi we’ve had. Fish was fresh, presentation was great, atmosphere was lovely, and service was great. Our server, Joey, made sure we were well taken care of and made the experience wonderful. Will definitely be returning and will recommend to all our friends.
