"In most Shore towns, sushi spots seem to significantly outnumber dockside seafood shacks in popularity. And of all the choices, Yumi in Sea Bright is the absolute best. Aside from scallop, amberjack, king salmon, and sea urchin nigiri, Yumi specializes in inventive and near-perfect small plates of raw fish—like the octopus carpaccio and fluke Sichuan, both of which are light and packed with complex flavors. While they offer takeout options, you should come here for a casual dinner so you can eat this fish as soon as it hits your table. Plus, the Sea Bright location is BYO so you can bring your favorite sake along, too. " - Michael Sinatra
