    Disappointing regular udon...sad looking
    Renee W.

    Very disappointed with my regular udon. I think they tried to make up for the lack of ingredients with the kamaboko no more even green onion...down not look as advertised

    Update: I have been to both this location and the Mililani location several times since my last review. The staff here are awesome and quick! Not sure if they switched people with Mililani cause the last time I went there the guy at the order line literally rolled his eyes when I walked in.... I'm pretty sure it's a Gen Z thing or something cause I noticed almost everywhere they don't even tell you "Thank you for coming have a nice day!" They just give you your food with a blank stare.

    Me: Did you want me to pick something up for us to snack on tonight while you out all of our kids to sleep? Wife: Yes, Ninja Sushi please. Me: *making sure they are open and is always nicely surprised they are open until 9pm* Also me: *the last customer that shows up right before closing* I always expect them to turn me down and say last call was 30 minutes ago but they don't! And the lady that works night on Friday's is friendly. Plus, that soft rock jams playlist they have on really brings it home. This place is a go-to for all your late night take-out sushi cravings.

    My significant other and I came at 2pm on Saturday, 10/28/2023. The aunty working the counter was nothing less than kind, friendly, and amazing. Her service was GREAT! I wish I got her name but I hope she gets to hear/see this review because she went above and beyond. And overall, maybe our dining experience perfect. Total for everything was $45, which is great for 2 people who are looking for fast, tasty sushi. I've always loved ninja sushi waipio, and I truly believe they are one of few places who works constantly towards better quality and presentation. They've made so many improvements. 10/10

    First time at Ninja Sushi Waipio location. Staff was really nice and very helpful guiding us through their menu. Small and cozy dining room. Small private parking lot out front. Freshly made Sushi Bentos, combination Bentos, and an extensive menu of Nigiri sushi dishes. Very nice place for fast food sushi on the go.

    Deep Fried Calamari

    I know times are hard, but come on. 5pc for $6.99. On a side note, my son said the calamari was fire, along with the rest of the sushi.

    The spam musubi is pretty good because it is made with sushi rice, and the spam is dressed with a nice thick teriyaki sauce. The gyoza wrapper is kind of thick, and a not too much filling. The dipping sauce tasted like straight up soy sauce, salty not a sauce ideal for dipping!

    Quick service. Party set usually need to order a hour ahead. U can't dine in at the moment, so kind of repair work going on.

    Tsunami maki
    Mika Y.

    I like here because it opens at 10am and that's very convenient for me. It has unique sushi rolls and nice bento and donburi. I like garlic hamachi. It tasted so good. It's $7.99 and has 3 pieces. Some rolls has half & half set (Maki-mono Combo Specials). The base roll is the same but topping is different. You can enjoy two types of roll half portions in one order. I like to variety of flavors so I like this combo. Combos are mostly $9.50 about $1 more than regular rolls but you can enjoy or try 2 flavors. Their spicy ahi is not that spicy but it was good. Staff is always nice and friendly. Store is clean so I feel safe.

    Five stars for attentive and impeccable customer service from both AYCE shabu shabu and Yakiniku…read moregrill. Staff didn't rush us for last call 90 minute time limit. Five stars for quality and selection of food able to withstand the heat during shabu shabu AYCE. Tan tan broth has a spicy kick, yet quite addicting. Shellfish miso broth is tasty and ideal for those seeking mild palate. Four stars for quality and selection of meats in Yakiniku section. Banchan tasted alright. I really didn't have any favorites. Galbi pieces were sliced perfectly for grilling. Savory marination tasted delicious! Beef brisket was quick to grill and easy to eat. Honey garlic chicken and marination tasted fabulous! Beef bulgogi had too much gristle or fat in between the beef. Bye AYCE Yakiniku! Hello to combos and ala cartes moving forward. Modern ambiance and lighting works well in both areas. Lots of free parking. Zen garden has a calming effect.

However, with the recent price change and the shift from all-you-can-eat to à la carte, my husband and I will most likely reconsider dining on the Yakiniku side. The Yakiniku experience is great for large family dinners and gatherings, but with the current pricing, it can become quite expensive, especially when ordering enough food for a larger group. We still love the restaurant and will definitely continue enjoying Shabu-Shabu, but the new Yakiniku pricing may make it harder for us to visit as regularly as we used to.

    Food? High quality ingredients, beautifully prepared and presented…read more Service? I was on the fence about ordering salmon katsu or salmon misoyaki. When I asked the young guy at the counter, his face lit up and he said, no question, order the misoyaki! The idea that a teenager or 20-something dude could light up and be animated about the food blew me away! His recommendation was PERFECT! It was a delightful dish that's been decribed by other reviewers. The fish was perfectly cooked; moist and flavorful. The corn hijiki was delicious. The highlight was the Japanese quick pickled cucumber slices. They were slightly crisp and super flavorful. I couldn't have asked for anything more in this dish. It was outstanding! The serving size was big enough to split and feed us amply.. I ordered the Nishime veg to go. When we visited Japan last year, I became a huge fan of root veg simmered in a dashi soy broth. I adore burdock and lotus roots. This had good flavor although sweeter than I would have preferred, and the veg was way too soft. However, it was a large portion for $10.50 and tasted healthy and heart warming. Ambiance? Most people are ordering take-out here although there are several tables at which to eat. The place is immaculate with no dusty decor. The origami cranes hanging from the ceiling is a lovely touch. We enjoyed hanging out and eating here. Even though I live in Waikiki, I would totally come back here as the food and service is that good!

    Very happy with our first experience. Taste, presentation, pricing, and service O.P (: refreshing…read moreon having someone who actually had a tone of enthusiasm with their menu, he made a recommendation/note of their fav without us asking. Shows a sense of pride and knowledge. They have a special menu too! Asked if it was time sensitive but a few will actually turn over into the reg menu. Always nice to ask though! Knowledge is power. Me and the hubs ordered the ahi cake and tonkastsu sandwhich. Both of which not dry, flavorful and wasn't greasy either. Will come back to try out their other dishes.
