Me and my wife have been eating here before they expanded, and have probably eaten here about 150 times over course of 4 to 5 years and its alway amazing and theve stayed true to there standards even through the expansion and success love this
Excellent sushi and sashimi, with beautiful presentation. Best in northern Ohio, hands down. The expanded footprint and redecorating in beautiful light pine with lots of natural edge wood was by far the best thing to come out of COVID. Fantastic little place!

We live near by, and drive by a lot. It doesn't look like much from the road. Our friends recommended it, we met them there and we were blown away. Everything was spot on... we're excited it's so close to us. We will be going back for sure!!!!! Delicious!!!

I have been going to this place for years. It's been a nice, silent place to enjoy your food. However, since renovation, more people have started coming here, so it can be quiet noisy, like it was the last time I was there. Also, the server had served us with warm tea. I told her once, and then she changed the pot, but the 2nd pot still had warm water in it. The food has always been good. It's just got way more expensive since renovation.

Lots of sushi choices. I usually get the hiibachi which is good, big portion size. Friend got Shriml Fried Rice, huge bowl and looked delish. Sit on side with sushi bar for better view.

No contest. This is the best sushi in the greater Cleveland area and among the best in the country. First rate in quality and freshness of the fish and presentation. A gem. Reasonable value for the quality. Great variety and creativity.The sushi specials are fantastic.The chocolate crepe cake is amazing.My only suggestion is that the chefs create some more viable alternatives for vegetarians who want to join their sushi-eating companions. Vegetarian sushi is insufficient. At a minimum, please create a soba-noodle dish with tofu and vegetables.
Came here with my family. Waitress was extremely friendly, and helpful to those without sushi/japanese food experience. Everyone was extremely happy with the food. Sashimi/sushi was excellent. Appetizers were amazingly especially the takoyaki. Forgot to take pictures it was so good!

This place had great hibachi dishes, we weren't impressed with the shumai (not saying it was bad, we have just learned we don't care for the texture, flavor was great!) as well as the gyoza (both appetizers were over priced, so we didn't feel we got out money's worth) nor did we care for the sushi, (again, flavor was fine, size was small compared to other places for the same price... like Issho Ni Ramen). The place is very upscale for where it is and you wouldn't think it would be how it is inside from the outside, but that's why you don't judge a book by its cover. We will go back, but we will only get their killer hibachi entrees!
Best Sushi I've had in a long time. Service is great. I recommend sitting at the Sushi bar if you can!

Atmosphere: I have to say that the front does not do this place enough justice. By far, the best shocked experience when walking through the door. From the bright and cozy feeling to the almost, dream-like image of what you think a well-known sushi and Hibachi restaurant would look like in your mind. I absolutely love the wood and stone of it all.Service: The service was great, with our waiter always being respectfully helpful.Food: When it comes to the food, it's worth the cost. I have gone to many different places for their sushi. This, by far, is on another level to the rest. Our appetizer, the fire boat, had amazing taste with a fantastic appearance.When it came to our main course, we ordered the specials. I believe it's was a mango sushi roll and Fantastic Maki with eel rolls on the side. Every bite was incredible, and I have to say that these are the best rolls I've ever had.Overall: Ninja Sushi and Hibachi is this amazing Sushi and Hibachi restaurant, and I hope to bring more friends to enjoy this gem in Mentor-on-the-Lake.

This place is a hidden gem in Mentor-on-the-Lake. The quality of the sushi and variety of tasty dishes is incredible. The hibachi is just as delicious but the true experience is sitting at the sushi bar watching these talented chefs create beautiful culinary art. The exterior is deceptive as the restaurant sits in a tiny retail strip. Inside are smiling welcoming staff eager to make your meal a pleasure. I hate to make it harder for me to get a table, but this place deserves a visit for its amazing food. Highly recommend ninja sushi.

Food was great! We went for a friend's birthday party and we had an excellent time! They kept the Sake hot and the food coming.
