    Shrimp and broccoli over noodles
    Kamirn C.

    The lo mein or "noodles" were dry spaghetti noodles. The shrimp was an afterthought, thrown on top, and the broccoli was sad. This was not what I expected to open when i got home.

    Tuna poke, sauce on side, no rice

    I felt the need to do a 5-star review to make up for the bad reviews. Food is fast, fresh, a bargain, and delicious. Teriyaki chicken is under $10, and makes an excellent fast meal. I haven't had the sushi, but that alone is enough for me. All ready in under 10 minutes too. There's a frequent diner card that one can use to eventually get a free meal too.

    Chicken & Beef Bento Box
    Erik G.

    New fast hibachi spot that opened up. Figured I'd give it a try. Walked in and it was empty so I was able to order immediately. Ordered the chicken and beef bento box and they were not shy with the portion as you can see from the pictures. It came with spring rolls, pork dumplings, and 4 California rolls for about $13 for everything. Service was very solid. They do charge you an extra 50 cent for extra sauce. Overall it was good.

    I would say that I love the new concept for privacy and convenience to have separate hibachi style…read moregrill tables throughout the restaurant than the traditional long table, where the entire restaurant has to share the table for communal dining, so that is a step up. I think that the customer service was excellent and the chef had charisma, personality, and should do stand up, he was a pleasure and a joy such a guy with rizz. My issue was the food itself as the rice was amazing but did not age well being taken back home for take out, and the chicken and salmon were not as flavorful as a homemade version I would had cooked so there was the blandness. I ended up having digestive issues and got sick for a day or two after eating from here which was disappointing, because the vibe is awesome in this spot and the positive energy is contagious. I felt so relaxed and joyous here. I think the food can be cooked better even though they are generous with excellent portion sizes. I think it is a strong contender for one of the best restaurants in the region if they step the food preparation up. I also did not like this sauce they provided, but it does have better customer service than the typical DMV spots which tend to struggle with the customer service, so they get an A with that making you feel welcomed and respected and not strictly transactional experience, very warm, nice, attentive, diligent, and hard working staff, so they have the bones here, so once they step up the actual food prep and quality then they will be 4 to 5 stars easily. That is all I got!

    I absolutely loved this new Japanese steakhouse. I've already visited twice, once for sushi and…read moreonce for hibachi, and both experiences were outstanding. Even without a reservation, I was seated immediately, which was a great first impression. The service was excellent. Our server mentioned it was her first day, but you would never have guessed as she was attentive, warm, and handled everything beautifully. The food truly stood out. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The hibachi experience was just as enjoyable. The chef was entertaining, skilled, and added a fun, engaging touch to the meal. The restaurant itself is clean, inviting, and has a great atmosphere that makes you want to stay and enjoy your time. I'll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great sushi or hibachi experience.

It did take a while before things got cooking, but it was alright. A lot of metal-clacking and showmanship, heh, which I'm not normally one for. I think the flames shooting in our direction got our attention, though...trust me, it was fine. Anyhow, the food was decent. I don't get too wowed by anything but I enjoyed it, and they made sure there was more than enough to bring home. Worked for me. The drink refills were helpful as well. The miso soup is a little less salty than I remember. Otherwise no complaints. The salad was good, don't know what the sauce was made of but we ate it up. Overall, a good experience. As an aside, the place has expanded. It's bigger, can handle more diners. There's garage parking close by, used to hate going there but things have been streamlined.

It felt very perfunctory and cooking took at least 20 minutes to start so I was starving, and then could not eat some of the food. The shrimp and vegetables were good, but the chicken was drowning in a sickly sweet sauce. The host was friendly and so was the server. However, they definitely do not understand ingredients and do not know what goes into their dishes, as Jill pointed out. Someone with an allergy or intolerance should never, ever go here. I told the server no egg, yet was served two dishes with egg in it. So either they just don't care or they aren't the brightest, but either way this place is a skip for me.

It took a few minutes for someone to come to the register but I wasn't in a rush so I waited quietly. The kitchen looked very clean and well organized. The floors were clean (no sticky shoes noises here) and that's always a good sign in my book. I was told it would be about 10 minutes. I ordered the chicken hibachi and 2 vegetable spring rolls. I didn't check out the restrooms but they are available for customers. I don't blame the establishment but I wrongly assumed the fried rice would be Japanese style. When I got back to work and saw the rice...I understood why he asked if I wanted yum yum sauce. It was definitely catered to DMV carry out standards.

The lady cashier took over and things went much smoother. We ordered, paid, and waited. While we waited we asked questions about the food on the hot bar and the lady that was tending to that didn't understand a single word of English and I struggle translating Spanish words in the correct order to make a sentence. LoL! I know the words but can't put them in the right order so there was a language barrier happening here. LoL! Some of the food on the hot bar looked like it had been sitting for quite some time under the lamp and it looked very dried out. I ordered the beef teriyaki, my husband ordered the chicken / beef / shrimp teriyaki, and our daughter had the chicken teriyaki. We ordered extra Yum Yum sauce to go with it. I didn't taste everyone else's this time because I was hyper focused on mine. The Beef Teriyaki was bland. There was no flavor until I dipped the beef in the Yum Yum Sauce. I asked for steam white rice and I received fried rice. Long review short, I didn't eat this because I'm going to have to add some seasonings from home to hype it up for it to be good. My husband on the other hand enjoyed his dish because of the shrimp. Our daughter ate a big portion of hers. She didn't say whether or not she liked it. 2.5 Stars.

This place has the best staff there you'll ever get to know. I think this lace is Family owned but im still doing research on that as we speak. As the hostess sits you at your table she hands you menus of all sorts of Asian Fantastic Foods you'll love there . They even have take out menus too . The have pick ups at the front counter cashier there too . This place has no wifi . I tried to see if they hire hosts or food runners outside te business. I handed in kt resume in person . I want the jib there without being Judged , Feared or Used bad politics on . I want to get the job there to be someone tgat can bridge all worlds that clje there . I like customer service and customer relations and custkmer interactions to help brng return cusykmer patrons to return . Me and my family have come there on several of occasions before the pandemic struck . But we Americans have to admit it was all of iur faults for the unjustifiable, Inexcusable, Unlawful, Reprehensible, And wrongful behaviors that should hae never have happened. Itshoyld never be Tolerated in any place of business .we all need to make amends and regain Trust in the businesses agaIn such as NINJA SUSHI . This is a place where you'll encounter a bre culture language and heritage that you'll all be something much bigger than yourself . To learn things you've never explored before . Tis is a place to have a great experience you'll never forget there . If you love this place as I do, This place is for you.

The sushi rolls were pick any 2 for $13. Absolutely fantastic rolls. I came in for the volcano bowl and I would come back again for the volcano bowl. I like a spicy broth and this was perfect.

I would give them a 3.75 stars because I wish they offered more ramen like beef and with the chicken broth not chicken that's fried. As the chicken was soggy and not eatable when I got home even though it was separated from the ramen. I would give them another try if I'm in the area to try more rolls and their alcohol selection.
