Ninja Japan Teriyaki & Sushi — Restaurant in New York

I gave this 5 stars comparing apples to apples: this restaurant with other restaurants of this type.

So this is a nice variation on the Chinese takeout place...It's not Chinese and it has restaurant-type seating.

In another pleasant wrinkle, you create your meal when You order: starting with a base entree and adding vegetables of your liking etc.

This is an efficiently run "quick cook" restaurant. I say Quick Cook, because this isn't fast food - with all the baggage that term has come to acquire (poor quality, unhealthy, etc).

Both the place in the food are clean. The staff is friendly and they cook the food in full view of the customer snd do so in literally minutes.... like 5 minutes and its on your table or in your hands.

I got beef teriyaki over fried rice with mushrooms only.

The portion is impressive, weighing at least 3 lbs. They are generous with the meat and it is quality meat. No gristle or excessive fat as is common in some low end places. And the taste is outstanding.

And all that for a very reasonable price. I paid a mere $10.75 for my entree.

I actually walked 14 blocks in the rain for this meal (7 each way - so I wouldn't lose a prime parking place,) but it is absolutely worth it.

In my opinion, this is the best thing going on Jamaica Avenue and Woodhaven Boulevard.

I'll be back.

I am back:

I've been here 8 times since the last review. And every time it's excellent. I recently got the chicken teriyaki. The chicken portion is downright impressive. There's gotta be a pound of chicken on here. And it's all cooked to perfection. Not overdone not crispy just tenderly browned and exquisitely flavoured.

In the Marine Corps we have a word to describe something that's far and above the norm. That word is outstanding.

Well ninja Japan teriyaki sushi is that. this place certainly stands out....

I highly...

I ordered from this restaurant for the first time and I was sadly disappointed. Although the food arrived hot and safe (no spills) it was very bland. I had to add soy sauce to soup and salmon teriyaki to make it more flavorful. And the salmon teriyaki had very little sauce and very few veggies. Only 4 small pieces of broccoli and small amount of onions/cabbage with no carrots. Tons of white rice though!

I normally order salmon teriyaki Bento Box from midtown Japanese place on 3rd Ave for just $2 more than the salmon teriyaki and it has lots of veggies, rice, avocado or California rolls and comes with free miso soup. Unfortunately I was home today but wanted to treat myself with Japanese food. What a waste of money...good thing I had credit from Uber. Not sure how this restaurant got such good reviews but I'll never order...

It is really awesome! before I would have to go all the way to queen center mall to get some good teriyaki chicken and noodles at a place called,"noodle house". Now that I discovered ninja Japan I have some awesome food close by with amazing tasting gyoza to boot!! I usually have to go to "naruto ramen" in queens to get amazing tasting gyoza but now that changed. The staff is fast paced and even pay attention to their customers. When we were done i was gonna ask for a bag but the man already knew what I needed and handed it to me so quickly. The only downside is that they do not deliver nor have uber eats but I don't mind. I will make time to go down there because it is close by! They have naruto images on the menu too. decent portion sizes too. I took some home so make sure you have...
