    My friends and I were here on a Friday night, and it was very quiet. Service was quick and friendly, and the sushi was pretty decent and reasonably priced. Their spicy edamame is a lovely appetizer. The dining room and restrooms were clean and uncrowded. Ninja Sushi is one of our frequent stops since it is close to us and usually not crowded. They do seem to do a lot of take-out orders, so that keeps them busy on the kitchen side. It's not fancy, but it's good. As others have mentioned, they now also have chicken options, but we haven't tried them yet.

    Ninja's Family Boat
    Ayro P.

    I first want to point out that the staff here was very amiable, which was refreshing having just come from a failed reservation at another restaurant. This restaurant wasn't that busy in-house (7pm on a Saturday) so we were sat immediately. Since we couldn't decide on what to get, we ended up just ordering the biggest sushi boat they had on the menu. It took a little longer than our server quoted us, but we had some misos (lacked some stock/miso paste) and sake while we waited. I have to admit that the extra time the sushi chef put into it was noticeable. The fish was organized neatly in the boat, and all the different items were easy to navigate between. Decent quality fish and good assortment, but I wish there were more pieces of some of the sushi (makes it hard to split evenly when there are 5+ people sharing. Aside from the miso, what kept this from being a 5-star review for me is how long it took for the kitchen item that was part of the boat to come out. We were in a little of a hurry so we ate the boat quickly, but the teriyaki didn't come out until 10 minutes after we were already done with the boat. We ended up taking it to-go. In short, I would still come back here, and hopefully I'll have more time to enjoy it.

    Saran wrap in the sushi
    Jay S.

    Definitely a 1-1.5/5 star spot. Came in here thinking I'd have at least a decent 3-3.5 star experience but no. It's really hot outside ,100+ degrees, and they didn't have their a/c on until we finished majority of our food. I found a piece of saran wrap IN the sushi because I know they use saran wrap to help shape it. They need to add more lighting to their sushi-making area so they can actually see it before serving it to their customers. They completely missed it, obviously because they added everything else (masago, sauce, etc.) on top of the saran wrap. I also think the quality of their sushi is questionable and also the rolls fall apart very easily. I know things happen. I really do. But what really set me off from this experience is that the chef KNEW about the plastic being inside the sushi because we saw the waitress informing him and they did not apologize or even acknowledge it. A partial refund would've but nice too but I honestly just wanted them to at least acknowledge and apologize but no, the chef just said bye and pretended like he didn't just serve us sushi with plastic inside that we could've ingested since it's hard to spot due to it being clear and also being coated with sauce. Definitely my last time here. Unprofessional.

    My beautiful Rainbow roll! I wanted light and simple and he made it smile for me!

    All rolls are made fresh to order and they don't mind a tweak if you need it! The service is friendly and helpful but the sushi chef is personable, friendly and very kind! Great personality! The ambience is upbeat and welcoming, just an overall excellent experience!

    Chicken Ramon
    Leah S.

    Ninja Sushi is a staple in our family for good times! Our latest sushi night was to celebrate our son's 16th birthday. The sushi chef was amazing and put the birthday candles in a California roll for us and even joined in signing happy birthday! This night will always be remembered by our family! As always, the food here is great. We've never had a bad meal here. Even our daughter that doesn't like sushi still loves to join us and get a non-sushi item. This time around she got the chicken Ramon and it was wonderful! The next time you want sushi, I highly recommend you try out Ninja Sushi. It's our go-to place!

    Worked a 10 hour overtime shift and had to treat myself to the best sushi in Sacramento! Their fish is amazing and fresh! The flavors of all the rolls I had made my palette smile! I ordered the Golden Scallop roll and it did not disappoint. The tuna was bright in color, the crabmeat is always delish and the grilled scallop on top with the special sauce and green onions just make that roll pop! Second roll was the 5 Star. It was impeccable! Comes with albacore, tuna, salmon, white fish and deep fried shrimp is an amazing combination so it was incredibly scrumptious! Last roll was the Ninja King Roll...so yum!!! It's a heck of a roll with tuna, yellowtail, salmon and red snapper that meshes so well together. I am full and fully satisfied!

    Chef's 20 pc Shogun's Sashimi Plate
    Michael F.

    Reasonable prices, friendly service and fresh fish. I only went with the kids, so we didn't order too many dishes, but we did enjoy what we did. The sashimi plate had a nice variety. The kids chicken teriyaki was a decent portion, but didn't include miso soup, which is always a hit with the kids, so that was a surprise. They also were out of several items that we really wanted to try, so that was a little disappointing. But overall we would come back if we were in the area.

    Under new management and service is great as both chef and staff is attentive. Portion, price, and taste is great! Place is spacious and clean with amble parking.

    The Ninja Boat
    Lorri P.

    My family lives in Sac and I was visiting family. They brought me here the last time I was visiting on my last night and it was great. Well, I was back up this week and we came here again on my last night with the family! It was a great call! We ordered the boat! The owner is super cool and he knows my Cousin so he knew what we liked on the boat and boy, that boat was amazing! Sushi, sashimi, tempura, seaweed salad, baked rolls, and it goes on! Such a great place and that will always be our last place to eat every time we visit! Thank you!!!

    Salmon Teriyaki
    Alani T.

    very small piece of salmon, i guess the price is good, but not worth it. Piece to the left is not even connected, added just a little piece more to make it look more decent. Salmon Teriyaki is not worth to go.

    I recommend Ninja Sushi. The food was good and the service was great! The moon rolls was my favorite sushi roll. Pepperfins were really good! The tempura was fresh! The server was very quick with everything! I will definitely visit again in the future.

    Ask the Community - Ninja Sushi

    Do they have any rolls made with-/or/ the option to replace white rice with- BROWN RICE? Or even NON-rice rolled sushi//gluten free options?

    Better to simply eat sashimi. Or a cucumber rolled roll.

    Does this place still do the buy one roll, get the other free?

    But 2 get 1 free.

The quality and freshness of the fish are simply exceptional. Every piece of nigiri is incredibly fresh, buttery, and perfectly prepared.

I tried their sukiyaki set, both wagyu and seafood. I wish they had given some instructions on the approach or order I should eat the sets of food. It was a little chaotic trying to figure out how I could submerge all the ingredients in the broth so they would cook evenly. The tempura is perfectly crispy, but the rice was a little brittle and got dried really fast. The texture was more like Vietnamese broken rice, and it caught me off guard because when I tried their sushi a while ago, they used very high-quality rice. As is typical with sukiyaki, the broth becomes very flavorful at the end, absorbing all the flavors from high-quality ingredients, but my udon got a little dry while waiting. Since I tried both set, the wagyu sukiyaki broth became a little too sweet at the end. My favorite is definitely the seafood sukiyaki broth. Would I try these pricy sukiyaki again? Probably not. Would I go back to Azayaka again? 100%. This would not discourage me from going back there any amount.

Before that, I remember when this spot used to be Tasty House. Small parking lot shared with a smog station off of Stockton Blvd between Fleming and Chandler/66th, a block south of Florin. Super small dining room capacity too, I'd say maybe less than 50 people? I've also tried their pork katsu appetizer and caramel matcha with salted cheese cream. This most recent visit, I was torn between the katsu or katsu curry donburis, but ultimately went with the tamagoyaki unagi don and a caramel milk tea. Shared the chicken karaage which was perfectly breaded, crispy, thick and juicy with every bite just like last time. Honey mustard dipping sauce on the side. Also shared one sushi taco (this time salmon/sake) and Mom got the beef gyudon. Other than matcha or milk tea, they also have seasonal drinks like guava, butterfly tea, ube, peach oolong, Japanese coffee, etc. Next time might go for a ramen to try or that rich curry udon dish. I will also say a sushi taco is easier to eat than a handroll or a sushi burrito. The wooden spoons were interesting for the rice bowls. The portions are pretty big and this cute little spot in South Sac is worth checking out! Open 11:30am-9pm daily.
