The place is small so make reservations or go during off-peak hours. I agree with some posters that the ratings are somewhat one sided, but in both directions! Pi's can't be compared to top sushi restaurants and should compare with what it is, a small local restaurant for casual patrons. In all fairness, I'll rate Pi's similar to ...

I have to agree with SKlepner that this yahoo rating of 4.5 is misleading and is obviously inflated. In terms of the freshness and presentation, this restaurant gets 2 stars from me. In terms of the service, I give it 1 star since we were asked to move to another table for customers who had just arrived.

Ignore these reviews. I have posted my opinion three times that Pi's is average and it gets deleted. I think that if someone complains about a post it gets tossed. Too bad because it therefore provides misleading information. Even though it's Yahoo, it still shouls provide a balanced amount of info. So, since I am not allowed to ...

Best fresh rolls I ever did have... It's a small establishment and a byob but it was comfortable and the wait staff was excellent. My two favorite rolls were the 'Out of Control Roll' and the 'Metuchen Roll'.

There is no question - Mr. Pi's is the best Sushi Restaurant in NJ. They have the most amazing special rolls - my fav. the Special Rainbow Roll - it's like eating candy. The fish is always fresh and the service is superb! Everyone always remembers you - even if you only go occassionally. If you are the type of person who wouldn't ...

This is the best local Japanese Restaurant. Everything is very fresh. Everyone that works there is very friendly. And the chocolate mochi's after your meal are the best!

A friend raved to me about this place. I thought she was exaggerating, I was very wrong! Even though my friend and her husband moved from the area and hadn’t been to Mr Pi’s for nearly a year, they were greeted by name when we walked in. The staff was attentive and the rolls were great. We ordered a volcano as an appetizer (tuna and salmon in ...
I have to say, when I read the reviews about waitresses remembering names and Mr. Pi being a great character AND the sushi being excellent, I was a bit skeptical. Having moved to New Jersey from NYC a year or so ago one thing I missed was a Japanese restaurant I could frequent to get my sushi fix; I think I found it tonight.
