After an appt, we decided to get lunch and Ginza Sushi popped up. After reading some reviews, we decided to give them a try. They are located in the Hacienda Gardens Shopping Center. A spacious and modern decor with Japanese motif. A large painted wall captures your sight. They offer a nice sushi bar to sit at. A few tvs around the restaurant to catch a glimpse of whatever is playing. Only one unisex restroom. The service was very friendly, patient, and attentive. Lunch Special Bento (served with miso soup, salad, and steamed rice): chicken teriyaki, California roll, veggie tempura, & gyoza (4/5). My mom enjoyed it as she ate almost everything! 3-item Bento Box (served with miso soup, salad, and steamed rice): mix tempura, salmon shioyaki, and salmon sashimi (+$4). The dressing on the salad was pretty good. The fry on the tempura was light and crunchy. I did order the shioyaki but the salmon had teriyaki sauce on it. I had no problem as I like teriyaki sauce. The piece was a bit small. The salmon sashimi was decent sized cuts and the salmon tasted fresh and clean. I'll be back to try some rolls, etc. Support your local business. read more

This place always gets recommended to me so I figured I'd give it a try. The ambiance is nice, there's a sushi bar plus indoor and and outdoor seating. The service was great. The sushi chefs were really friendly and the wait staff as well. The sushi itself was just delicious. I especially enjoyed the roll with no rice. As far as price goes, I feel like it's pretty average. Definitely will be back as I really enjoyed my food! read more

My daughter was at a birthday party for two hours so I decided to grab lunch. Ginza Sushi was near by so decided to try it. It was in the middle of the day so the restaurant was not too busy. I was seated right away and took my time browsing through the menu. I decided on the Crazy Mango Roll and Otoro on the Rock. The mango roll was delicious as expected but that otoro? Premium bluefin tuna belly. That was how do you say it, chef's kiss. The slices were huge and literally melted in my mouth. Definitely a splurge every and now and then. The restaurant size is small, just one room but looks big because of the high ceiling. They had a cute display area set up for Halloween in a corner. Service is super friendly and I did not feel rushed to order my food but they did come by to check up on me. Next door is a dessert place so I hopped on over right after lunch. read more

I was craving a good California roll so my husband suggested Ginza. They have a wide variety. We decided to call in the order for pick up. The gentleman who took our order was very nice and knowledgeable of the items on the menu. Everything (3 types of California rolls, Teriyaki bento box & spicy tuna hand roll) we ordered was fresh and delicious! I'm very happy that I gave this place a try. I'll be back for sure. read more

Have been ordering their Nigiri tasting for years now. Each time the selection is unique, the fish is super fresh, and the presentation is impeccable. Highly recommended. read more

Impressive spread--from sashimi and bento boxes to specialty rolls, they've got it all. The soft-shell crab appetizer was crisp perfection, and the Orange Blossom and Climax Roll were flavor standouts. Loved the variety and presentation, plus the spacious interiors--never feels cramped even on a busy night. A solid go-to for fresh sushi and relaxed dining. Highly recommended read more

I love this place food is always so fresh and amazing and the staff is always nice probably one of the best sushi places authentic in the Bay Area. My order is always ready on time and very fresh read more

Tried this spot for the first time recently. Service was friendly and fast. Restaurant was clean and updated. Sushi rolls and sashimi looked and tasted solid. It wasn't life-changing sushi but we'll be back. read more

This review is long overdue, and for a reason too. If you came here several months ago, you would've been met with poor service and food too. Personally I don't like leaving bad reviews, only good ones to the establishments that do deserve it. But after hearing that management and staff completely changed, I decided to give this place a couple tries again. I was pleasantly surprised that the service and food quality have gotten WAY better. Located in the same shopping center as the well known Goku establishment, this restaurant gives off a casual, family friendly vibe. Lots of seating, as well as a sushi bar seating too. As for the sushi, the quality is fresh (at least for me whenever I go and order, idk about all the other people in the recent reviews saying quality is below par. But I trust my palate to be saying this), and the portions are ample when compared to the price. Service is also very attentive towards your needs. Very welcoming, hospitable, and quick to help. The BENTO BOXES are AMAZING btw. There's a lot of selections for your 2 item or 3 item bento box, and you can't really fuss with the weekday lunch price for these. The price also applies to both takeout AND dine in. Rolls and appetizers are great as well, generous portions/fillings for what you're paying for. This is a solid sushi spot for the South San Jose area. While prices do get kinda high for DoorDash and UberEats (as expected for 3rd party delivery apps), they do accept call-in takeout orders as well as website takeout orders as well, this way you can beat those 3rd party app prices. Definitely try this spot out and see for yourself! read more

We had another great meal here on Monday. Service is always fast and friendly and the portions are quite generous. We had bento boxes and sushi. Everything was fresh and delicious. This is our go to place in the Cambrian area. I can't recommend it more highly. They take is also quite good. Prices are average and parking is easy. read more

This place is good but service was not . The manager came up to us asking why I did not tip. The crazy part is the bill was split in half and the other person had put the tip for the total bill. When I explained she keeps saying why did I put 0 . I was so frustrated because who goes to a table asking why you didn't tip, the sad part is we did and wish we could have taken it back it was too late . Worst manager ever ! So make sure if you go to tip well or they will harass you ! read more

I suggested Ginza Sushi to another friend recently. We met up for lunch on a Tuesday at noon. There were only a few customers while we were there. My friend had the exact questions I had about the new menu, so she clarified for me so I didn't even have to ask our waiter. Even though the menu doesn't explicitly explain the way the lunch bento works, there are some visuals to help you see the different sections of items. Just select one item from each section. One of my friends had a Lunch Bento with sashimi and tempura. Another just had a Dragon Roll, and I had a 3-item bento lunch with Mixed Tempura, CA Roll, & Salmon Sashimi ($4 additional fee). I especially enjoyed the sashimi. Service was good, food came out quickly, and we all enjoyed our meals. Keeping my original 4-star review, thanks Ginza Sushi! read more

Originally we wanted to eat at Goku; but, we arrived later than normal. Saw that the wait was 54-75 minutes!! Thankfully, I was a fast-thinker and we headed to Ginza, which was a fab idea! The atmosphere was fun - lively with the tvs on (not too loud though) along with the decor. The service was on point! We were seated immediately, our drinks were put through quickly, and our food arrived in no time. Staff checked on us often but weren't intrusive. I loved the variety of the rolls and I especially loved the My roll - I don't eat white rice. I hope they add more non-rice rolls &/or add the option of brown rice... that will make this place even better for those with dietary needs. Def going back... I think we found our new sushi spot!! read more

Ginza Sushi - Bento lunch and Orange Blossom - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

Absolutely disgusting experience. I've eaten sushi all over San Jose and this was by far the worst. The moment I walked in and saw little gnats buzzing around the sushi bar, I should've trusted my instincts and left. But nope -- I stayed... and regretted it. The fish tasted off, the rice texture was weird, and the whole environment just felt unclean and careless. Literally made me sick to my stomach afterward -- I spent the rest of the night regretting every bite. The fact that this place is serving raw fish in those conditions is ridiculous. I will NEVER be back, and I honestly don't know how this place survives with that level of hygiene and quality. If you care about freshness and cleanliness, do yourself a favor and go anywhere else. read more

Daniel was such a good server! He gave a warm welcome and provided good service. Food was amazing!

Instagram led us to this sushi place in San Jose. I immediately noticed that the restaurant was pretty empty, which surprised me because of their instagram following. After being seated, we showed them the videos they posted on Instagram and specifically asked for those rolls. My partner showed them a video as well and they said they didn't have that one either. The server said those rolls aren't on the menu. I questioned why they're being posted if they're not available. The server was kind of enough to go ask someone who would know if they were available. The server came back to tell us that those are "special" rolls and are not available. I told them that they should post the rolls that we can order on Instagram instead of posting rolls which are not available to order. It's obviously not the server's fault. This is a suggestion for PR and their management team who is posting false advertisements. After having no choice, I ended up ordering the crazy mango roll. He ordered the paradise roll. Oddly enough, they brought out our rolls separately. We tried several rolls, but the one that was delicious was the crazy mango roll! We ordered it twice because it had a wildly delicious flavor :) I'd only recommend the crazy mango roll. Overall, it's disappointing to drive to a restaurant to order what we had seen on Instagram to be told it's not available. Plus, the rolls were so tiny lol definitely smaller portions than other places. read more

Came here for dinner with a friend as soon as they opened at 5pm. The restaurant itself is really spacious and there's giant artwork on the walls. The service was good- they were really attentive. They have happy hour starting at 5 so we ordered off that menu and it was pretty worth it. Small bite/starters ranged from $6-$12 and the rolls also ranged from $6-$12. The quality of the fish was really good. The two nigiris were our favorite. The rolls were good but nothing crazy. The oysters were good and already dressed when they came out. The otoro truffle dish was a little underwhelming. The table was also a little dirty and my friend and I ended up getting some stains on our sleeves from the table. This is a pretty affordable and solid spot, would come again! read more

My go to sushi in San Jose. It's always fresh and delicious, I only wish the prices weren't so high.

We usually have a good dining experience here. However, tonight was not one of those nights. For one person in our party, the food came out after everyone was pretty much done. That ruined the overall dinner mojo and put them in a bad mood for the remainder. No wasabi on our sushi, had to wait to eat until the server brought it. After we were done, had to wait a long time for the bill. We asked for a togo box. The server said he would be right back with it and never returned. We had to ask someone else for the box. On a positive note, the food was decent and they did give us a discount on the late entree. Hopefully the service will be better in the future. Bad service can definitely ruin a dinner even if the food is good; especially at today's prices. read more

Another day, another visit to Ginza. Usually great service. Their specialty rolls are a little over the top for me (mostly because of the sauces), BUT we love their generous bento dinners and the more simple handrolls. It's a go-to for a quick dinner with the family when I am in town. read more

Good food. One of my default sushi place, if I feel like grab and go sushi for dinner. I usually pickup from here for sushi rolls. They are pretty good. read more

We decided to visit new place to celebrate some family event. Ordered baked sushi , himachi roll and philadelphia roll. Himachi was excellent as expected. Fresh, fatty and soft. Philadelphia Roll had cream cheese and salmon , som salmon was so veiny so i could not even make it soft with my teeth. It was not a sushi grade salmon. Perhaps left over from main cut or very old. Brr. When i ordered baked roll i expected hot and jucy. When we started to eat Lion King baked roll fish on top was cooked well but inside was barely warm and rice was very dry and felt as undercooked. Service was good, no issues. Food was not. So our experience was not a success. Not going back there. read more

Food: 10/10 Service:9/10 Ambiance: 10/10 Our first experience here was nice. The place was clean, service was quick and friendly. We got there around 5:30pm and noticed the HH menu, score! My first thought was since it's happy hour, maybe it's smaller portions than the regular menu size, but nope- they are full size rolls and dishes. Unfortunately, they didn't have oysters that day, so a point off on service. So far, all the rolls are decent and I like how it's perfectly rolled, not falling off when you pickup to eat. The best part is the sushi and sashimi is very fresh, decent quality and rice portion in the rolls are not too much and just a perfect bite! I will definitely come back to try other dishes with family and friends. read more

We haven't personally been to Ginza sushi, but we DoorDash from here all the time and the rolls are delicious! The only reason I can't give it a higher rating is because the rolls are extremely expensive in my honest opinion compared to other sushi spots. read more

Not a bad place, but also nothing that really sets it apart from the sea of other run-of-the-mill Japanese restaurants you can find sprinkled across the South Bay. The prices are average, bordering on high, but if you are just interested in sushi it will probably hit the spot as all the sashimi and rolls were of decent quality though the Tamago (egg) sushi that comes with some of the dishes was absolutely terrible, almost inedible. The Beef Teriyaki was well-done bordering on charcoal briquet, and the Tempura was a little over battered and greasy though at least they give you a very generous portion so you won't leave hungry. Apart from the food, the restaurant interior is a single high-ceilinged room lined in imposing black wood planking and packed with tables that somehow leaves the place feeling cramped and cavernous at the same time. Some of the dishware such as the bento boxes were showing a lot of wear-and-tear, and they seemed to have run out of clean cups so they served us water in plastic to-go cups with lids and straws which felt like they belonged next to a ballpark hot dog rather than a nice sit-down dinner. All in all, the atmosphere and general dining experience certainly left something to be desired. I didn't leave dissatisfied, but it certainly won't be finding its way onto my go-to list of Japanese restaurants. read more

What's the point of listing that you're open until 2 if people walk in 25 minutes before that and you say you're closed because of last call? List your closing time at last call then? Food here is decent-level compared to its peers but c'mon. This practice of closing 20 to 25 minutes before listed closing time is becoming stupid. read more

Quick service and amazing food. Their prices are affordable and delicious. Would come and recommend again.

This was our first time coming here. They wasn't busy and they finally took our order. The lasy was very nice and friendly, then they started to get customers and surprised me how they received their food before me and my friend. I had to as multiple times for refills for water while the guy just stood around and forgot about me after asking multiple times. The sushi was just average. Although my beef and chicken teriyaki was cooked nice. I have to say the teriyaki sauce was so so very thick it was sticking together it wasn't that good compared with all other Japanese cuisines I've had ever in Bay Area. Definitely would not recommend or be considering coming back again! The ambience was clean though. read more
