    Inside
    Stephanie W.

    Nestled in Bloomingdale Plaza for almost a decade, Sushi Ninja Brandon stands as a beloved gem, defying the odds in a world where restaurants come and go. What do I love about Sushi Ninja Brandon? - It's the sister location of the popular Sushi Ninja Tampa, bringing a sense of community. - Their incredible Korean specialties never fail to impress my in-laws - Unlike many places that have succumbed to the trap of online ordering and delivery, Sushi Ninja keeps it traditional. You call in your order, stroll in to pick it up, and enjoy the charm of old-fashioned service. What don't I love? - It does feel a bit odd in this digital age not to offer online ordering, but maybe that's part of the unique charm!

    chicken wings
    Max E.

    Had dinner at Sushi Ninja Brandon. I'm not a sushi person, so I went there for the other food they sell. I ordered some chicken fried rice and also 6-piece chicken wings (original). My wife had the Chicken Bulgogi. Now, she liked her order, I on the other hand was not impressed with mine. Now, I know I ordered the original chicken wings, but they only use adobo to season it, and its only on the skin, so after the first bite, the rest of the chicken really has no flavor. The chicken fried rice was not something I would go back for either. The place was very clean, plenty of parking since its located in a shopping strip. The other folks with us, had the sushi, and they seemed to have enjoyed it. I'm giving it a 4 start, because I was not impressed, but the other folks did not complaint and my wife was ok with her food.

    Went here tonight for a birthday party. We started out with a sashimi appetizer and a vegetable tempura. Both were delicious and I would order them again. We then ordered two rolls which were fresh but a little small and were a little blan on taste. Overall the service was great from our server but at the end they brought us the bills with a automatic 18% gratuity added with the minimum option of adding an additional 20% if we wanted to. I consider myself a great tipper when the service warrants it which normally means I tip over 20%. But when a tip is forced upon me and no longer based on service rendered I simply stop at their lower amount. For this I removed a star . Have faith in your product and services rendered or I will choose to go elsewhere.

    Hamachi Carpaccio

    Before entering, they do ask to take your temperature. They are still continuing to give customers distance, which is amazing. Specially the booths, definitely felt like we had privacy. Leaving us with great ambiance. The Hamachi Carpaccio as an app, is delightful and refreshing. Served with radish and yellowtail, yum. Our main sushi plate, consisted of the basics - rainbow roll and Cali. The Crazy Ninja Roll, a slight hint of that spicy kick, I loved it. The fried shrimp, Alaskan snow crab, spicy tuna within the Crazy Ninja Roll, all worked well together. Husband also had chicken fried rice, per usual!

    Star was very friendly, but forgetful. Had to wait for 20 minutes for a boba tea that was incredibly sour and was not drinkable. No soy sauce and had to scavenge for some on my own. Food was very mid-range. The menu is very clearly non-threatening sushi: almost everything was fried, had "krab", or had asparagus. There were only a handful of non-fried, non-"krab" rolls out of around 40 to choose from. $11-$14 per roll. Great place to go for people who want to say that they've had sushi.

    The decor inside is very nice and relaxing. The Ginger salad had a very creamy ginger dressing, not a huge fan but def not bad (just personal preference). Just different texture than I'm use to. The gyoza was really really good! Fried to perfection in my opinion. It comes with the usual dipping sauce that they call "Ninja Sauce". Very good. The actual main entrees themselves took quite a while to come out but it was definitely worth the wait. Idk he lunch box I ordered was huge, I tried to include the chopsticks so you can kinda get a good reference point as to how large it was. Great great chicken teriyaki! Maria was our waitress she was very nice and quick with anything we needed. We'll definitely be coming back. Pics below!

    My son was in town and we decided on Sushi Ninja in Brandon after reading other Yelp reviews and seeing photos. The service was great, food came out quick, and everything was delicious. I was stationed in Korea for a year and this was a great meal and something different than what I would normally get at a sushi place! The Jenny roll and Katsu rolls were so good that we almost ordered a 2nd round of them but opted we should probably save room for dinner. I plan on bringing my boyfriend back here asap!

Lol took about half an hour for it to be safe for her to eat. Cute presentation but order some side stuff whole it cools. Couldn't do dessert this time, due to my dieting i have trained my body to eat very little and high protein meals. Today was my cheat day. On the path of Keto. Sht works just trust the process. Guaranteed -1-2lbs a weeks 0-50 carbs a day n it just falls off by itself. 2+ if working out. I will be coming back later since im working more now that i can and om usually around here after work. I can just eat just the fish n side salads it be bueno. ***Would love to see a keto roll like; substitute the rice for riced cauliflower. The madam that had use was nice n attentive. very pleasant. It was nice and dimed but the music kept the other guest also happy. I am so glad this establishment is prospering cuz i really like their food a lot.

The seating is booths and tables and the lighting is very dark, which goes a romantic date vibe. I ordered with a lady. She the Ramen and I got the sushi rolls. Everything took about 20 minutes and I was headed home. When I opened the bag, everything smelled so good especially the Tonkatsu broth it was rich in flavor and pouring it over the ramen was so satisfying. Honestly ate the whole thing its was that good. The sushi was good but did get a couple stringy fatty pieces in the tuna roll. Overall, definitely would try them again.

While I was waiting, the sushi chef provided me with a specialty piece of yellowtail that was amazing! My rolls came out quickly, and they were absolutely perfect. While less pieces than I'm used to, the yellowtail roll was packed with fish. And the soft shell crab was perfectly cooked, plus I love that they provided the deep fried legs, too. Everything I received was beautifully plated on slate dishes, which is always a nice touch. Yes, I do think its more expensive than other sushi places ($4 for a soda, come on?!) but it was really excellent sushi. If I'm ever in the area again (which, honestly, I hope not to be), I would definitely return.

We were a party of five and arrived on time for our reservation. The restaurant decided to seat us with a very large party that clearly should have had a private area or separate seating arrangement. As we were eating, more and more people from that group kept arriving. There weren't enough seats for them, yet they were allowed to stand directly behind both their party and ours the entire time. What made it worse was that no one from the restaurant addressed it -- not the chef, not the waitress, no one. One of the men standing behind us repeatedly leaned over and ate food directly off the plates of his party. It was chaotic, uncomfortable, and honestly gross. We ended up rushing through dinner just to leave. Our waitress was actually very sweet and did her best, but she was clearly being disrespected and overwhelmed by that large party as well. The food itself was just okay, and the way large amounts of food were being thrown onto plates felt sloppy and unappetizing. Before leaving, we asked to speak to a manager. He apologized, acknowledged that the situation should have been handled differently, and gave us a $50 credit. While we appreciated the apology, it was never really about the money. We simply wanted a nice evening celebrating my mom's milestone birthday, and instead we left stressed and disappointed. Sadly, we will not be returning.

The gyoza were the highlight for me -- crispy and quite good. Overall, the ensemble made for a satisfying, no-fuss meal. Simple, decent, and I wouldn't hesitate to order it again.
