This is a cute sushi place downtown! Love the decor and ambience! Staff were nice and also had good recommendations for a few of the most popular items. The food was reasonably priced. About $14 for a specialty roll which is very reasonable. There are a lot of options on the menu and I did find that very overwhelming and think menu should have a handful less options. Overall very cute place with great staff!

This place is now conveniently across the street from my new place of work. I had some time between clients so I decided to grab a quick lunch. I came a quarter to 1. It was slow but it's also a Saturday afternoon. I sat the bar since it was only me. No need to mess up a whole table. My waitress came with a menu and a glass of water. I'm pretty consistent with my orders when it comes to sushi. I grabbed a miso, salad and a ca handroll. The last time I was here when they first opened the sushi chef was kind and gave me a sample of their ika salad. It was a different chef today but he was kind and gave me a sample of the ika salad. I worked on it while my food was being prepared. The ika had a nice chew to it but wasn't hard. You can taste the fresh cucumber and whatever veggie is in there. The sesame oil wasn't too heavy. I ate as much as I could. I'm not a big ika fan but the chef was so kind to give it to me that I didn't want to waste it. My soup and salad came out shortly. I will have to say, they don't skimp of portions with the miso. My bowl was filled to the brim! It was nice and hot, perfect for today's cold weather. I did wish there was a little but more miso flavoring to it. It had a good taste but it could have been a hair saltier. The salad looked fantastic. Lots of carrots and a couple slices of cucumber. Some of the lettuce was wilted so the crispness of the lettuce lacked in some of the pieces I ate. The Ca roll was money. Its a classic and kinda hard to mess up on. It was good. The cucumber was crunchy, the avocado was creamy and you got a good chunk of krab. I appreciate that their spicy mayo had a slight heat to it. It was a perfect dip for my handroll. Today's visit good ok. The handroll was good and the ika salad was neat to try again. The chef was kind and my server was decent. I just remember my initial visit being so great. Today was average. Being that they are across the street from me, I'm sure I'll be back. I'll have to be daring and try something different next time.

What an excellent japanese restaurant in downtown Boise. As soon as you walk in, it gives you a modern vibe and was very clean. Service was great from start to finish. It is also priced fairly for downtown with good portions! For an appetizer we shared the edamame which was salted and cooked well. My friend also had the Miso soup which she enjoyed. I ordered the Beef Ramen (Sliced beef, fish cake, half cooked egg, bamboo shoot, black fungus, green onion, spicy sauce and black garlic oil). It was really good. It had a hearty, flavorful broth and the portion was filling. The noodles were of high quality as well as the other ingredients. My egg was fully cooked and I'm not picky about that but I know some are. We shared our sushi and they brought it out on such a beautiful display we both had to take pictures! The three rolls we chose are... Yellowstone (Spicy crab, shrimp tempura, Top: yellowtail, avocado, jalapeno, red tobiko,poke sauce) Bronco (Spicy yellowtail, mango, shrimp tempura. Top: fry eel, salmon, avocado, spicy sauce, eel sauce ) - this one was our favorite! Dynamite (Salmon, yellowtail, kani, snapper, avocado, tobiko, green onion, battered & deep fried) - my friend has never had a deep fried one before and she enjoyed it. All in all, its a good spot to snag a meal and don't sleep on it! Also, if you have ever been to awesome Sakana Sushi in West Boise, their menus look similiar because they are! The old owner sold that business and opened this one downtown. ;)

Okay so I found the sushi spot and I'm not gatekeeping: it's Ginza Sushi. I'm obsessed. First off, the vibe is actually amazing. Bright, clean, and NOT one of those dark places where you're scared to look your spicy tuna in the eye. It feels welcoming, not like you accidentally walked into a fish mafia meeting. They totally get the gluten-free struggle too--which, shoutout?? They brought my friends GF soy sauce without making it weird and were super helpful in navigating the menu for them. 10/10 for that alone. And the sushi??? So fresh it probably had a passport. The presentation was stunning--like, the kind of rolls you almost feel bad eating but then don't because they're actually life-changing. I got a variety and not a single piece flopped. The salmon melted. The yellowtail? Unhinged levels of good. Plus the service was so sweet. Not fake-friendly, just chill, helpful, and on top of it. Felt like everyone there wanted me to have a good time (and they succeeded).

Absolutely delicious and a super cute place. Service was great and we had a family of 7. Reasonably priced with great flavors;)

Lacy has been our server a few times now and she is amazing!! Makes us feel at home, and the sushi is always 10/10.

Where to begin? In town for medical care and I wondered in to find two super friendly staff and a happy chef ready to make my first meal in Idaho . My repeat business was instantaneous !! If you live work or visiting the local downtown Boise area, please make this one of your stops

I have done my best to try every sushi location in Treasure Valley and Ginza has by far the highest quality fish. It is so fresh and was told by the server they very frequently get deliveries. I recently returned from a trip to Japan (which the sushi there cannot be beat as it is caught daily). the server at Ginza told me the fish I was eating was delivered 3 days prior, and I could tell. I am a big nigiri and sashimi guy so I got the sushi and sashimi for one which was a very healthy quantity of food which left me sated. I can attest that this is nearly as fresh as the fish I had while in Japan, by far the highest quality in the valley. Would very much recommend. I sat outside which was very nice too.

We arrived shortly after 5 pm on Friday evening. There was not a handful of other customers at the time. I believe this place is new. We were quickly greeted by our server with water and menus. The service was friendly and causal. The food was delicious. We started out with the seafood soup (4 out of 5 stars) and a house salad (5 out of 5). The sushi rolls were delicious and fresh and easily a 4.5. The tempura chicken and veges were outstanding and easily a 5. The rice, while only steamed rice, was perfectly cooked and a 5. And we loved the tempura sauce. The place has a modern and nice appeal. I wish the tables were wood and not metal but that is my only nit pick. I highly recommend checking this place out. It is on our short list of regular haunts. I am looking forward to trying the hibachi, don, and fried rice in the near future.

I've been here twice now and already consider Ginza my favorite sushi restaurant in town. I got the black pepper tuna this last time and can say it was the best, freshest, tuna I've had in Boise in a very long time. Will definitely be returning again and again. The restaurant itself is super cute and clean. I love what they've done with the interior design, very pleasant atmosphere. And the outdoor patio has been so nice on warm evenings.

The service and wide selection of items waiter was super friendly and there was a amazing serving size best in Boise make sure you read the menu closely!! Plus the vibe of the place and ambiance was spectacular.

We are from out of town but were craving some sushi. It's probably by far the best sushi I've had in a very long time. We had the forest roll and orchard roll! The fish was so fresh. I can't wait to come back here when we stop through again. It's a gem
