This place is really good. I have been here a few times and every time I have had a good experience. The manager is really great and the chefs provide great service. I ordered sushi and the combination hibachi with steak and scallops. I ordered the Volcano roll. The sushi was average. Too much spicy mayo for my taste and I couldn't taste the raw fish flavor, which is what I like the most about sushi. As for the hibachi part, the meal was great, however, they used to give bigger portions (they still give you plenty of food). The meal includes miso soup, salad, fried rice, your choice of meat/seafood, and steamed veggies. I had steak and scallops, and I think this place has one of the best scallops I have ever eaten. I will definitely come back to this place. In addition, as a bonus for your birthday, they give you a free ice cream for dessert. read more

Ninja was personally catered at a New Years party of mine. I have never seen or tasted better sushi. The different selection of sushi flavors are crazy. Very diverse. So delicious. A must visit! read more

Ninja Steak & Sushi - two large sushi platters! (a very accurate depiction of just how many different varieties of sushi flavors this sushi place has.) - Japanese Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

Good food just small portions. They used to be huge but things change I guess. Fun atmosphere and love they cook in front of you.

Very good food. The fried rice is especially good. They cook theirs with small pieces of bacon to add extra flavor. The atmosphere is also pleasant. It is a small restaurant and makes it's money off of repeat customers. Probably the best hibachi steakhouses around. read more

Fun hibachi restaurant with good food! They have a wide selection of different things to order. Hibachi is always fun watching the chef cook in front of you, but our chef was dull and didn't try to make the table laugh or anything, which was a bummer. Good food with a good atmosphere! read more

Worst Habachi EVER!!! Got the lobster, asked for it to be fluffy, not too overdone. Got served a plate of sh*t an animal wouldn't have eaten. Burnt soggy spoiled vegetables that looked as if they were picked from the drain. Disgusting food. Got sick after. read more

Made a reservation 15 people for a birthday party. 4 of us, although seated together, were served by a separate chief. While our one group was eating we had to wait for another chief serve us 15 minutes later. Recommended no large group for this restaurant. read more

We recently relocated from Indiana where we had a favorite teppan restaurant. Unfortunately we were rather disappointed with both the food and the atmosphere of this restaurant. My husband and I both ordered the chicken and shrimp dinner and found the flavoring to be bland. The restaurant itself felt cramped and dingy. Needless to say we won't be going back. read more

Excellent hibachi restaurant! We recently chose Ninja for dinner to celebrate my son's birthday. We were a party of five. It has been a little while since I have eaten here but I will tell you that I immediately noticed a huge difference in their quality versus the other Hibachi restaurants in the area. The quality here is excellent. From the chefs that prepare at the table to the ingredients they use in their food it was just all-around excellent. We really appreciate good food and we were really happy with our service and food choices. Next time we are out to dinner for hibachi we will definitely choose Ninja. Thank you for a great evening out. read more

I had the hibachi filet mignon with fried rice. Everything was fantastic and I don't say that lightly. I ate a good amount of food and still walked away with leftovers! Such great food and the staff was friendly as well. read more

I have never left a review on Yelp but feel led to after the terrible service our party of 13 received this evening. Our chef said the restaurant must not like him as they gave him such a large group. We had reservations so they knew. My husband & I were sat at the next grill but our food was still cooked with our groups grill. Chef got mad when he was told one of our diners had a seafood allergy; he took the shrimp off the grill & actually threw them back onto the cart. He made no attempt at any entertainment & we had 2 under the age of 4 that would have enjoyed it. We had one dining that has dietary restrictions & asked to order just a side of vegetables, she was told no without ordering a meal which she could not eat. Very rude. It's been at least 6 years since I've been there but will never go back. We had brought a cookie cake for a birthday celebration but was afraid to ask if we could cut it even though we brought our own plates. Not a good experience at all. read more

Worst service ever. 20 minutes to get a beer. 40 minutes to take our dinner order. Food came out at all different times. Been here many times and seems to be going down hill. I'd recommend trying somewhere else. Zero stars if possible. Food was ok. read more

Decided to try this location since the one in Cumming has closed its doors. Dissappointed quality not as good as the Cumming location. Chef very sarcastic and not very accommodating always told us as your waiter for any request. Sushi not so great. Won't make the drive again sorry read more

Got order wrong, wait staff very slow, sushi sub-par. Manager/owner was very helpful.

Very disappointed with my lunch today. Definitely NOT worth the $$. The wait staff was inattentive and certainly expressed no desire to make my dining experience pleasurable. Be prepared to pay $1.00 PER small shrimp if you would like any in your fried rice. I have been coming her for at least 10 years and I think this will be my last visit. read more

Benihana Wanna Be? I had the tepanyaki shrimp and scallop with steamed white rice. The soup was on the salty side. The iceberg lettuce salad with too much ginger dressing. The stir fry vegetables were good not too salty, shrimp was ok , but the scallops were not good at all, of the 5 pcs that they gave me I ate one. It tasted like they soaked it in baking soda. My husband had chateaubriand, shrimp and lobster combo with the fried rice. The fried rice had bacon in it. The shrimp was the same as mine, the lobster tail was from a rock lobster and not cold water. The steak was very, very tender at medium rare. Still it's fun and the price is OK. read more

It's 9:02 PM on a thursday night. they aren't very busy but they are still very happy. It's a quiet place (a date night place) we are sitting at the sushi bar looking at what to order. The man behind the bar recommends some ideas. He make them fast and very beautifully. I like this place already. read more

I heard about Ninja by reading Yelp reviews for sushi restaurants in my area (I live in Buford). This seemed to be the most highly rated one around so my roommate and I gave it a go. WHAT AN AMAZING DISCOVERY THIS WAS! I'm a real sushi lover. I was BLOWN AWAY by the friendliness of the staff, the service, the sushi chef and his skill, the freshness of the ingredients, all of it. BEST sushi and best fried rice i have ever had. hands down. and that includes inner city restaurants in Atlanta. Ninja will get my business from now on. One thing that immediately made me know i was on to something was that everyone else there were regulars who knew the owner and staff by name. You will not be disappointed by your visit to Ninja. read more

We came here for my daughter's 16th birthday dinner. The chef made her feel special and put on a fantastic show. We had 15 in our party. The food was cooked perfectly. The chef delivered an amazing performance with tricks that we had not seen at other hibachi restaurants. This will be our new place to go for hibachi. read more

We took my artistic son for his birthday dinner. We asked for a separate order of plain fried rice to be cooked on the flat top. For some reason this is against the rules. Then to top it off the cook continued to make comments about the situation while he cooked. We will never come back and would hope people will see how they treated someone with a disability. read more

Best hibachi ever. The rice is the best around they add bacon. Atmosphere is kid friendly and the chefs are very personable

This is our favorite sushi spot in the northeast Atlanta area. We always eat rolls at the sushi bar and haven't tried the hibachi. The fish is fresh and tasty and the portions are very large (a lot of fish in each roll). The staff has always been pleasant and helpful and we love the oranges at the end of the meal. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is the limited seating - there is just a sushi bar to sit at, no individual tables. read more

We have gotten takeout from here several times. They are always very very friendly when you walk in the door. The sushi is always fantastic. And their habachi grill dinners are always wonderful. They take the time to check the order and make sure it's right it is always bagged up or boxed up very nice and neat. We love it! read more

First off, right after we were seated and my husband heard the waitstaff speaking Vietnamese to each other, I wanted to walk out. A Japanese restaurant run by non-Japanese rarely turns out well. I ordered a tempura udon. It came with 2 shrimps and a small bowl of plain udon in soup. The shrimp is from frozen, with very little flavor. There was nothing in the udon soup, it tasted like water with a dash of soy sauce, no sliced fish cake or egg or seawood as in a typical udon. You can go to the nearest Asian grocery, buy a prepackaged udon from the refrigerated section, bread a couple of shrimps and would have something no worse than what I was served. My husband, the brave man, ordered sushi. He said is was OK, it wasn't super fresh but edible. Thankfully he did not have an upset stomach afterwards as I was afraid he would. All I can say is, for decent Japanese you really do have to make the drive into Atlanta. Try Taka on Pharr in Buckhead. On a bright note, at least Ninja was clean and so was their ladies room. read more

Good food but a little overpriced in comparison to other hibachi restaurants. Great service!

Where do I start? I would give this place a negative 5 if I could! We visited the restaurant today & ordered their special of chicken teriyaki (x4) for us all. It was fine until the main meal came to us. The rice & chicken were both cold & tasted like they were cooked for lunch & served in dinner. When we asked about it, the rude server said "I can warm it up for you in the microwave." We decided to walk out of this place. We sat in the table area behind bar instead of the grill but didn't expect to be served old food. My wife left a used napkin on the cold chicken & rude server said "How will we reuse this food?" Those were her words. Beware of this place. Unless you are sitting at the grill, stay away from this place because they are most likely serving you leftovers. I am thankful one of us decided to walk away today. We will not be returning! read more

Some of the best sushi around with the best service possible. Friendly sushi chefs ready to customize your order and great service from the wait staff. Mina is the best server but all are very attentive. read more

Ninja Steak & Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

See all

What an overpriced menu for absolutely mediocre (at best) food. Ninja Steak and Sushi in Cumming, GA used to be top notch. The company has clearly gone completely downhill. We spent nearly $100 on two adults while being conservative of what we were ordering. The bill was so shocking we even reviewed what we were charged for. Our friends had never eaten sushi before, so we thought we would get them to give it a go. What a terrible first sushi experience they encountered. Food seemed stale almost. Certainly not the level of "freshness" I desire when spending $100 on one meal. Service certainly left more to be desired. Very slow. We ate hibachi, and the one positive part of our experience was our chef's personality. He definitely entertained. My advice, save your money and heartache and go somewhere else. read more

We invited a few close friends & family for our daughter's 7th birthday, spent almost $300 bucks & had a TERRIBLE experience! Our chef was boring, in a rush, non entertaining & didn't even cook our meat the way we asked. We asked numerous times for him to throw food for our guests to catch, he said let food cool, then ended his cooking session after asking 3 times. We felt very rushed to leave so others could be seated. I spoke with the manager prior to being seated of the importance in having a great experience for our daughter's birthday AND explained to the chef it was her birthday. All we got was a huge tab & embarrassment for our guest's. We even had to ask for the included sherbet ice cream. After paying, I spoke with the manager & all he offered was a 15% off our NEXT meal on a future visit. I will NOT be going back!! Improve your cooking, food, & get better chef's!! I wish I could leave zero star's! Ruined my daughter's birthday dinner & I was embarrassed bringing guests here. read more

Nasty! Not just ours but everyone at the table. It was all over cooked/burnt except for my sons steak. We ordered it med-rare came Med. But the it was the least of the issues. Shrimp, scallops veggies were burnt. Poor guy next to us ordered a filet Med-well, it looked like it was left in a deep fryer for an hour. Sushi ok. read more

A very good sushi place plus hibachi for those who prefer a dinner show. The Godzilla Roll and the Big Sexy Roll are our favorites. We always get good service and fresh, quality food here. read more

I have always loved ninja. I've eaten here on my birthday many years and have always loved the food and experience. Me and my boyfriend took my mom last night and the food was honestly good like always. But I woke up at 2am and got so sick. I'd also like to say that this was the only meal I ate yesterday after 10am. It's taken me 12 hours to feel like a somewhat normal human being again. We all got the same exact dish (bistro fillet and chicken). I was the only one out of the 3 of us to eat yum yum sauce, so I am assuming that is what gave me the $63 worth of food poisoning. Needless to say, I will not be returning. read more

We've been here a lot and the atmosphere is always upbeat (I mean, it's Hibachi) and the waiters and chefs are always fun. You will be greeted at the door by Jackie and he always makes you feel at home. The portions are generous so I can't complain. My sons love coming here! It's like a show and dinner for them. If I had to complain, it would be about the steak. It seems that no matter what temperature you want it, it all looks to be cooked the same way. But overall it's consistent and I will definitely be back. read more

Food was your typical Japanese cuisine however the experience wasn't the greatest. I had my wife's 31st birthday dinner here and called 5 days in advance to get seating for 12. They sat us right away however when it came to ordering, they made one of our guest order on the other grill (due to the number of guest) while the remaining 11 ordered on a different grill. The problem arose when the 'other' grill got delayed 30 minutes and made that one guest watch the remaining 11 eat. We asked management to put her food on our grill so that she could eat and they refused to accommodate our request based on their policies. After about 30 minutes of disgruntlement from both tables about the situation, the chef threw her fish on our grill and made our one guest say 'please' before he would do it, then chuckled with contempt that he had to do something he didn't want to do. I am typically not the one to Yelp about bad experiences however I think it is important to let others know that if you plan on having a big dinner event, you might want to think about going else where. I've eaten here several times in the past and have had great experiences, that's why I thought this would be the perfect place to host this dinner, however doesn't seem that common sense and politeness was something of great importance this night. read more

Service is lacking. Food is very good, there yellow sauce is not good and to me and my friends that is what makes a hibachi resturant. Tastes watered down. read more

The cook and food were both great! As we were leaving our host ran out and stopped us in the parking and told us we didn't pay all of our bill,knowing w did. After we showed her we payed, she proceeded to say "So you aren't going to tip me?" On all 3 of our 12 dollar bills we tipped 3 dollars which means she was already getting a 9 dollar tip, but still asked for more. Terrible customer service. read more

It could of been better, The cook over cooked our food. Braselton location is way better!
