    I had an amazing experience at Hungry Ninja here in the Newhall Ranch location. The food was incredibly delicious, full of flavor, and everything came out perfectly fresh. The service was friendly, fast, and made the whole visit even more enjoyable. This place has such a fun and welcoming vibe that it instantly became one of my favorite spots. Highly recommended -- absolutely a 10/10 experience!

    Teriyaki chicken no veggies
    Allie R.

    It's so good. I'm picky with chicken so I pick out the questionable pieces but over all it's bomb. Prices have gone up a lot but I'll still stop here when in town.

    Order and take out or to table

    Very good teriyaki dishes. All the regulars chicken, steak, shrimp. All cooked on site. Really nice people. Clean and quick. The large is VERY large. Medium is about right for a dinner and a little leftover. Clean and plenty of parking.

    Teriyaki chicken

    Teriyaki chicken is very delicious and the serving size is generous Many rice, chicken and vegetables.

    a plate of chicken and rice
    Alfie E.

    I heard this spot has been around for years but yesterday is the first time I have had it and it was damn good! Menu is super simple. The main ingredients are teriyaki sauce, beef/chicken/shrimp/pineapple and a mixture of those four, a small amount of steamed vegetables (but really, who comes here for steamed veggies) over rice. Legitimately a good plate with generous proportions! I got a large chicken and beef that is good for two servings. It is fast food Japanese teriyaki bowls- nothing but meat and rice comfort food. Go here for a quick, no nonsense, affordable food. I am definitely coming back.

    Trash

    The customer service here is trash the lady who runs this place is trash and it's literally 7:50. They're supposed to close at 8 o'clock and she said she can't make any food because she wants to go home. What kind of company does that especially when you're in the food industry, Trash Trash Trash The worst customer service ever they literally need a new owner because that's ridiculous

    I could truly write a novel about how much I enjoy this restaurant. As someone who regularly comes…read morehere for sushi, I've had the opportunity to try different items on the menu throughout the years. I fully trust everything coming out of here will be high quality and delicious. When I say I have legitimately been begging Chef Tim for YEARS to offer an omakase experience, I truly mean YEARS. Well, it was a random Wednesday and I found myself wandering in for dinner. Because it was a little early (5:30pm), there were no other customers seated (toward 6:15pm it started getting busy though!) . I gladly took the opportunity to once again beg Chef Tim to do a makeshift omakase experience for my partner and I. I was overjoyed when he agreed since it was on the slower side. He knows our order, and is familiar with our taste preferences, so I completely trusted him. I was super excited to watch Chef Tim be in his element, allowing him to be creative and make something he wouldn't necessarily have time for on a busy day. His passion truly shines in his craft and I knew this was going to be quite an exciting experience. Chef Tim's makeshift omakase experience included: halibut with truffle oil, cripsy rice with toro and caviar, miso chilean sea bass, a trio of seared items including scallop, aburi toro and peppered salmon, Blue fin akami, salmon belly and yellowtail belly, a pickled radish roll with Bluefin tuna, salmon yellowtail, and avocado and the A5 wagyu with uni. He also made secret menu items such as deep fried scallops, maguro yamakake, and my newest favorite which was the "fish taco." The "Fish Taco" was a deep fried garlic red snapper over creamy spicy tuna. I really did enjoy each and every dish he selected for us. I couldn't even begin to rank them because they were all fresh, delicious, served at the perfect temperature and paired well with one another. He did a great job at spreading out raw with deep fried, for a great balance of flavors and textures. (I'm still wishing that he would offer an omakase experience one day - he absolutely killed it!). I was pleasantly surprised by the A5 Wagyu with uni, "Fish Taco" and the the seared trio. It's funny because if you were to ask me I'd say I LOVE raw fish, so the fact that these three stood out to me really surprised me. Another thing is, I would never gravitate toward beef at a sushi spot, but I was thoroughly impressed with how well the flavors infused together. I knew they offered it on their menu, and like I said before, I thoroughly trust them, so if I was going to go out of my element it would be here. Another thing that I wanted to mention was that you can special order a whole sushi cake! While we didn't pre order one today, we had it in the past and it's also one of my favorite items. It consists of salmon and ikura on top with rice, masago, and imitation crab inside. I'd much prefer this over a real cake any day! Overall if you've stayed with me for this long, then you can probably already tell that I'm the self proclaimed President of the Ananto fan club. I'm just really sorry to my partner's wallet because I keep adding more and more new foods we just HAVE to order every time we go ;).

    I visited this place with my family for dinner over the weekend. When we parked in front, we…read morenoticed the restaurant was completely empty, which honestly made us hesitate to go in. However, since we were already there, we decided to give it a try. ​After getting seated, we ordered drinks and wrote down our sushi order on the paper provided. We also added a few appetizers and rolls. Even though there were no other customers, the food took quite a long time to come out. ​The most disappointing part was the service. Instead of placing the dishes on the table, the server just handed everything to me directly. I had to take every single plate and set it down on the table myself. I'm not sure if the server was untrained or just lazy, but my wife and I could only laugh at how absurd it was. ​To top it all off, the sushi we ordered at the very beginning never arrived, even after we had finished all our other food. It was clear they completely forgot about it, so we just asked for the check, paid, and left. This was our first time here, and we definitely won't be coming back.

We started with the garlic edamame, and WOW. Whatever magic is in that garlic sauce needs to stay exactly the way it is because it was absolutely addictive. We were scraping every last bit of it from the bowl. For our rolls, we ordered the California Roll, Baked Scallop Roll, and the Baked Salmon Roll with cream cheese. Every single one was outstanding. The fish tasted incredibly fresh, the ingredients were high quality, and somehow each bite was even better than the one before. It's rare to find a place where every roll is a hit, but Tokai nailed it. The service was just as impressive as the food. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Without question, this is some of the best sushi my fiancé and I have ever had. We'll absolutely be coming back, and I can't wait to try more of the menu. If you're looking for phenomenal sushi, Tokai is a must-visit!

And a quick search from Yelp reminded me that we were here last time! I guess they are still attractive. This place felt like it was run by the Vietnamese, as all hosts and servers spoke Vietnamese to each other. The menu is as extensive as before, 2 full pages of rolls! One page is the standard ones, like the Lion King, sumo rolls, 49er's, and the other page is their special rolls. Unlike last time that we tried a bunch of their special appetizers (and they are still the same on the menu), we tried the rolls and bento this time and I think I like that more. We ordered the Teena roll, the Gilbert roll, an order of salmon roe sushi, a side order of chicken fried rice, and a tempura bento. The rolls tasted good, soft and slightly chewy in the mouth with a blend of all the sashimi and crab meat and sticky Japanese rice. The tempura bento was sumptuous! It came with a bowl of miso soup, a bowl of white rice, 4 or 5 pieces of gyoza, a salad, cucumber, a pre-cut orange, and 8 or 9 pieces of tempura of a variety. My least favorite is probably the salmon roe sushi as I wish the roes look bigger and more orange-y. Service was great. Although we were told they were busy and we might have to wait a bit, food started to come in less than 5 minutes! We didn't get a water refill but the glass of water was big. Dirty dishes were taken away timely too. I've been abused by the Bay Area exorbitant prices for a long time, it was such a pleasure to see rolls priced at $15. So overall, it was a good dinner in town.

First, I would like to say that my family and I have dined at your restaurant on several occasions and have always had positive experiences. We have enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service, which is why the experience we had last night was particularly disappointing. My family and I visited your establishment again and ordered from the à la carte menu. After we had finished most of our meal and paid our bill, some members of our party, including my brothers, were still enjoying their sake and finishing their drinks. To our surprise, a staff member approached us and asked us to leave the restaurant. While I understand that it was a busy evening and that there may have been other customers waiting for tables, I found it inappropriate and unprofessional to be asked to leave when we were still consuming items we had legitimately purchased. We did not order from an all-you-can-eat menu, which typically has a clearly stated time limit. As paying customers dining from the regular menu, we reasonably expected to be allowed to finish our food and beverages without feeling rushed or pressured to leave. What was most disappointing was the manner in which the situation was handled. Hospitality should include treating guests with courtesy and respect, regardless of how busy the restaurant may be. Being asked to leave while still finishing our drinks and foods left us feeling unwelcome and diminished what would otherwise have been an enjoyable dining experience. I hope you will address this matter with your staff and reinforce the importance of professional customer service and respectful communication. Thank you for taking the time to review my concerns. I would appreciate your acknowledgment of this complaint and any information regarding how this matter will be addressed. Sincerely, Carla

It was disappointing and, unfortunately, not unusual based on many of my past visits. Thankfully, Sophie completely turned the experience around.
