The eatery, which offers a wide variety of sushi and other Japanese dishes, will open in Cresskill on May 22.
Jugemu will replace Umeya, which occupied the space at 156 Piermont Rd. since 1996.
A grand opening ceremony will be held from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday, May 22.
The ceremony will include a whole tuna cutting demonstration, in which the tuna will be made into traditional sushi blocks.
