It’s in the shopping center where H Mart is btw.

I feel like Edison is the new Tokyo of jersey

Finally!

How can they fit anything more in that shopping center

They built a new 2 story building and this new restaurant will be in it.

I hope, Fort Lee is too far

Kura Sushi is like the kaitenzushi chain in Japan. Many a drunk night spent there. Hope they have the little gatchapon game every 10 plates too.

Yup, the parking sucked now it will worst

The US kura has a lot less options than the Japan Kura and pricier at that.

Nah, kura is only Japanese there, everything else is Korean or Chinese.

Edgewater is “Tokyo”

Yeah I'd assumed it would be twice the price for half the quality which tends to be the standard for US sushi.

Kona grill?

On the weekends you pretty much have to drive in circles until you get lucky and find someone who is leaving

I thought Edison and South Brunswick was little India/Pakistan from the amount of desi people

Isn’t Kona Grill in Woodbridge?

You’re correct. Close enough but not quite Edison

I used to be a sales rep and had to go into just about every mall in NJ, Long Island and some in Delaware and PA.

The way we would get a good spot, is to go to the row you want to park in and wait about 20 spots back from the front of the row, You'll get a spot in around 10 minutes. Even during the holiday rush.

The only caveat is don't pick a row by the employee entrances.

I'm not quite sure what part of Edison you have seen, but there's like 25 Japanese restaurants in Edison alone...There's almost 1 Sushi place per block in Edison. Edison is the Otaku capital of New Jersey.

Here is the list Tokyo Sushi, J&Q Sushi, Miso Sushi, Sushi Palace, Rayaki Ramen Edison, Sushi O Asian Bistro, Sushi Saga, Kanpanchi Sushi, Waki Japanese Ramen, Umani Bowls, Noodle Plus, Shogun Wok Edison, Yaruka Ramen, Habachi Express Edison, Happy Lamb Hot Pot Edison, Gao's Noodle House, Chung Sol Bat

If this isn't Japan, then what is it???

…all these places are Chinese and Korean run and half are not even Japanese food…

All (if not a rather large percentage) of those Restaurants are Japanese, not Korean or Chinese you can look them up. I would like to point out that in the previous response to another Redditor you mentioned Kona Grill as Japanese when Kona Grill is a classic American Grill with steak and seafood, so what you might consider "Japanese" is questionable 🙃.

I agree with your last statement, there's a large hub of Asian culture there. I think that's awesome.
