The sushi was okay. I had the Princess roll. The service was REALLY fast which is a good thing. The portions are a little small but hey its affordable and fast so whatever. The staff seemed to rush my party and give us dirty looks, but at the end of our meal they had a nice birthday surprise for my mom. My family and I went to the restaurant for my moms birthday and she loved it so I guess that is all that really matters. In short, go to Anaba if you are short on time (they're fast) and want some very americanized sushi. A few of the workers are actually quite nice. read more

Anaba - Crush it! - Japanese Near Me - Oxnard, California

This review is coming from a non fish eating person. I decided to take a chance and get the chicken katsu, and let me tell you. Their Katsu is probably one of the best I have tried. Excellent chicken cuts and the breading is perfect. I also top it off with a veggie roll wrapped in rice paper. It's a match made in heaven. It's always busy and the online orders may take up to 45 min. But it is well worth it. read more

Best sushi in Ventura County. We have been going here for years and have tried just about all the Sushi shops in Ventura County. We are not a tradition sushi family, so we are judging this off of specialty rolls. I highly recommend you check this place out if you love rolls. The only reason for the four star is because the service is hit or miss. We were there last night (first time in a year since Covid) and the waitress was horrible. But the place is great, 1 out of 6 visits we have bad service, so I would only think it is fair to drop one star.. read more

We had a huge order of sushi to go from Anaba last week and I have to say everything was amazing! We had it all, nigiri and rolls, I think my favorite roll was either the salmon delight or the scallop roll. Also had a ton of nigiri: Saba, hamachi, hotate, maguro, tobiko, basically everything. Oh yeah the sweet shrimp was incredible too! Definitely going back. read more

Great spot !!!! Never fails. Very clean and organized. quick to attend you and have your food ready read more

Love this place!! They have a wide variety of options and the food is always delicious!! I love the Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna Cakes, the Shishito Peppers, and the Hawaiian Roll! The guys behind the sushi bar are always a good time and I've never had a bad experience. On the weekends it does get a little busy but it's worth it! read more

Sushi is great but the customer service is completely trash. I ordered a pick up order and the girl at the front snatched my card away from me and this isn't the first time this happens to me. There was a lady infront of me that said she was scared to even ask for her food because the lady at the front was being extremely rude to the previous customer as well something needs to change I love going to this place but I tend to not want to go back because I don't want to have a bad experience again! read more

Absolutely delicious sushi! Very creative menu choices and super fresh. We were expecting a long wait with mediocre service based on some of the reviews, but we were seated quickly and our waitress was extremely attentive, especially since we had a table tucked back in a corner (which we preferred). Fabulous service!!! We ordered fried calamari, crispy rice cake with tuna, ahi tuna with feta and a sashimi platter. At the end, since it was my birthday, the lights dimmed, laser lights danced on the ceiling and the whole restaurant broke out in song. Coming from Los Angeles, we are a bit jaded in our sushi experiences, but Anaba is top-notch. Super fun night and a great spot!!! read more

Great sushi. Very fresh fish, how it should be this close to the harbor. would recommend to my friends read more

The sushi here is FANTASTIC. Much better than I had expected. I randomly found this place on yelp while I was visiting the area and boy was I delighted! It's such a cute place and vibe, and I love that it's right over the water- I had no clue till I got there and they seated us! Nice view of boats outside and awesome ambiance! We got the sunset roll and the spider roll and the spicy scallops roll. YUM! read more

Food is delicious. Service is good. Only thing is it's a small place and it gets so crowded.

I ordered all nigiri's here. The flavor overall is pretty good. However, the rice is a little hard/undercooked. I know I'm being picky, but for the price it's a pretty big flaw since it's sushi. Other than that the service is good and the flavor was good. read more

I enjoyed very much. Great service and very friendly. Sushi was great. Nice seating for outdoors to overlook the water. Spacious inside as well. read more

Had a good Beef Steak Teriyaki and Chicken Teriyaki. I had great customer service. Server refilled our drinks and she was very polite. There is plenty of parking also. read more

Tempura California roll is scrumptious. Volcano roll is super tasty. Prices are reasonable ranging from $8 - $15. The servers are all very friendly and prompt. read more

Overpriced mediocre sushi for sure! They have a nice variety of Specialty Rolls and Sushi but everything was a little bland and on the smaller size, compared to other sushi restaurants, and the flavors were just weak. I'm used to better, and at cheaper prices. Thought it was seriously overpriced for what we received. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Anaba is a nice restaurant to visit. The decor lends to its charm. The menu and drink offerings are varied and well explained. The food was great. The sashimi and sushi were fresh and presented, according to the menu, in the traditional Japanese method, a dab of wasabi on the sushi. We ordered a sushi and sashimi boat. The presentation was magnificent and tasty. The order included miso soup and a salad. Our only issue was with the service. It was slow and the server would disappear for extended periods of time. We had to ask other employees to locate our server on multiple occasions. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant for its good food. However, service was lacking. read more

Great food. We can walk there. Busy restaurant. Staff very friendly and helpful. Can serve large parties

My favorite sushi spot!! The quality of fish is great and I love their creative specialty rolls!

I've been here four times in the last three weeks because after trying this, we want our friends to try it too. Every new guest that comes to town has agreed--its so fresh and tasty! The rolls are full of great proportions of fresh fish. The mango salmon roll and victoria roll are my favorites. Only negative thing for me is when they celebrate birthdays..... think Chucky Cheese Pizza read more

Anaba is on the top of my list when it comes to sushi. I don't live in Oxnard but every time my boyfriend and I go out that way we have to stop in.. even if we aren't ate with his family it's just THAT GOOD! not only is the fish quality incredibly fresh the service is top notch. Nina is the best waitress we could ask for and John is a master at he does. I always recommend this place to friends when they head out that way. Make sure to get the blue fin tuna, albacore belly, and live scallops if they have them! Thanks Anaba for always giving us a wonderful experience!! read more

Really fun tasty well done American style sushi. Good service, really nice ginger. Would highly recommend

Very disappointed with this restaurant, They did not offer free water. You had to buy a $3 bottle water and sodas were $3.25. The rolls were so expensive and weren't that good. This place has definitely changed and prices have fluctuate tremendously. I know other great restaurants with better food and reasonably priced. Will not be returning. read more

My roomie and I came to Anaba to get her sushi fix after our workout class. We were seated right away. The venue had lots of room to accommodate any type of party. This would be a perfect place for either a nice date or a spot to catch up with a good friend. Also, can't beat the view of that marina! The menu had an assorted array of sushi, including rice free rolls! We ordered Salmon Delight, Unagi, and Victoria. Fish was fresh and rolls were tasty. The only reason I took 1 star away was because our female server did not seem like the friendliest person, other than that I would return because the sushi is good. read more

GREAT sushi bar and restaurant! Nice to be able to go back 'indoors' (well at the time - a month ago). This is a great place to have a birthday party for a few friends - fun and food is umm, umm, good! read more

Food was good fresh and flavorful ... Service was s but slow but not bad.. They had a good selection of such and rolls... Definitely would return read more

I love this place! Great sushi, great service! During COVID they do take out and if allowed by local laws they do indoor seating.

Always delicious! The sushi chefs and waitresses/support staff are friendly and attentive. Sometimes the downside to their popularity can be a long wait, but it's always worth it! read more

Went with friends last night. Asked what rolls and appetizers to order. They waiter was awesome made great suggestions. This sushi restaurant is right on the water channels and some of the table views are lovely. But the atmosphere is lovely - people at surrounding tables are friendly. It is a fun visit. Go first for atmosphere and second if you are a sushi only diehard read more

This spot has been my favorite sushi spot in Ventura. The service is always so friendly and the fresh fish in the sushi is so tasty and great quality. I always get the rainbow rolls, Hawaiian poke salad, and or the mango avocado salad. The restaurant is following COVID guidelines and is following protocol. At the moment are only doing take out but still who wouldn't want to eat really good sushi at their house. read more

I've gone to several sushi restaurants and Anaba is the best! I really like coming here. The staff has always been friendly and courteous and service is great. Their food? Always fantastic and delicious. We come here once a month! read more

I recommend golden tiger roll and monkey balls. Two of my favorite. Customer service is good and prices are fair.

So delicious. They were incredibly kind to my 4 year old. He loved the experience. Anaba specialty roll is so fresh and delicious

Being in the area what we were in the mood for we responded sushi. Our friend said, "Well you're in luck, we have one of the best sushi spots I have ever had." "Yeah, okay. We've heard that before." I said. He responded, "Besides sushi in Japan, this is the best sushi spot I've had in the United States." Now that's a statement. He did not disappoint us. Anaba was one of the most flavorful rich sushi I've had in quite some time. The ambiance was fulfilled with a full restaurant with pop music in the background on a Sunday afternoon. Service was pleasant and easy to order while allowing our conversations to continue flowing. Ordered the Salmon Tempura Roll + Volcano Roll. Completely fulfilled my expectations. We noticed fried banana mochi dessert on the way out. We will be back for that. read more

Looking for a sushi place and we came across this place. About less than 10 minutes away from Channel Islands where we stayed at the marina. We were greeted upon arriving and also had the view of the marina. The food was literally fresh and delicious. We ordered 4 specialty rolls, edamame, and cucumber salad and I can honestly say it was mouth wateringIt wasn't busy around 4pm so we came at the right time. read more

Only reason I won't give 5 stars is because the service was very slow for a Sunday night!! Came around 7:30/8 and waited too long for everything. Food, WAS AMAZING. The ahi sashimi was delicious. We had the golden tiger, salmon tempura and the Garlic tuna(?) No complaints about the food! Some of the best sushi we have ever had, in fact. Would definitely recommend it! read more
