Hungry Ninja — Restaurant in Stratford

My boyfriend and I have been in Stratford for 8 months. While every place we have ventured out to eat has been great in its own way, this place takes the crown. It's a small yet well decorated atmosphere, perfect for a little dinner or lunch. I ordered the spicy salmon roll, miso soup & some salmon sashimi while my boyfriend had the pork belly noodles. We both agreed it was quite literally the best meal we'd had since we got here! The service was phenomenal. Very attentive and kind. The lovely chef/ server did an incredible job and presentation + quality was unmatched. The man who served and cooked for us was so sweet and you could tell he genuinely put great effort into our dishes. If you're looking for sub par food but big misleading ambience, go anywhere else.

I usually get takeout from here but this time we decided to sit down inside and have a late lunch. To start off, the staff here are very kind and helpful.

The food here is very good, the owner had Hamachi and blue fun tune sashimi available, and it was just like when I had it in Japan, they even had the Highball drink, a Japanese staple for izakayas. The atmosphere was great with the true Japanese employees, it was just a little tight. Over all a great spot for Japanese food, will be my go to if I'm craving japanese cuisine...
