Nice Little Nook. We accidently came across this place while we were driving through Montclair trying to figure out what we were in the mood for. Japanese is always a good option in my eyes. I was quite impressed when I walked in. There are some 4-top tables in the middle of the restaurant with booths along the right side and in the back. The service is friendly, and the food was well prepared. My bf had some lobster medley and I had 2 rolls of sushi. For an appetizer I had the tuna tartar, and I'm pretty sure Marc had these friends crabmeat mushroom delicacy which were excellent. The menu is kind of weird and takes some adjucting. You have to look all around to find parking, and the prices are Midtown NY, not Montclair NJ. A little disappointed with the taste of the fish and service. Id rather go to Megu for the same price.

Great food for even picky eaters. I'm not into Sushi, and it seems that everyone I dine with is- so Aozora is perfect since I can eat less exotic dinners there. The sushi looks awesome, and from what I hear it tastes great too. I've really liked the lobster bisque and the grilled shrimp over risotto entree is really good. Service is attentive but not overbearing. Cute booths..good for couples and groups. Great BYOW- Hope you enjoy!
