Celebrated my dad’s birthday at Sushi by Bou in Hoboken and had such a great experience! The 12-course omakase was fresh and delicious, the team made the night feel special, and the atmosphere was fun and energetic. Being Located in the W hotel was convenient, after we finished our meal we hung out for a night cap in the “Living Room” at the W which also has good vibes

Sushi by Bou Hoboken never misses.
Service is always a 10/10. We're regulars now and always request Sean, the sushi chef. There aren't enough good things to say about him! His creativity and attention to detail make every visit special. He even creates new menus with us to keep our nigiri experience exciting and fresh.
Yesterday's favorite was the tuna with quail egg, Japanese dressing, and furikake seasoning, absolute perfection.
Also want to shout out Kevin, who I believe is the manager and mixologist here. His cocktails are just as impressive as the sushi, creative, balanced, and absolutely delicious.
The hip-hop music sets the perfect vibe, my boyfriend and I love it. Great food, great energy, and even better people. Our favorite nigiri spot in NJ!

Host Bryan and Chef Derik were phenomenal! I've tried just about every Omakase spot in NJ and NyC and I must say this was one of the best experiences I've had. Hospitality was exceptional. Fish was fresh and delicious. Just an absolutely amazing experience. Plus omakase for lunch on a Sunday, like what!? Amazing
