Welcome to Shumi Japanese Cuisine. Shumi in Japanese means ‘hobby’ which was first started by our Master Chef Aikasa in Somerville, New Jersey. Our owner and sushi chef, David Seo, is a close student working with Aikasa. As you step into Shumi, you will see the open bar and feel a sense of refreshing and clear atmosphere. Shumi’s Omakase has a unique way of introducing and presenting sushi to newcomers and veterans alike in Ridgewood and Leonia, New Jersey. Experience a one-of-a-kind journey of flavors at Shumi, where our chef will craft the perfect omakase experience for you! Follow their expert guidance as they guide your senses through a sensational tasting menu featuring sushi and/or sashimi from that day’s catch. And if omakase isn’t quite what you’re in the mood for, enjoy any number of other iconic Japanese dishes such as bento box or ramen – all with top quality ingredients sure to tantalize every taste bud.
