Great sushi, reasonable prices, very friendly. – Wow, I just don't get that gregyoungster review! I've been going here for years, since before the move from Jeanette Street, and Kyoto, Hana, LIttle Tokyo, and Sake Cafe just don't compare for taste or value. I suppose my view of the friendliness is prejudiced due to my long patronage, though we're more monthly rather than weekly customers (well, we're sliding towards twice a month!). They've watched my daughters grow from 2'5" to 5'9", and in the early days post Katrina when ... read more
Fresh – I eat at ninja almost every week - but usually just walk from my house and do take out. Their fish is the freshest I have had in New Orleans and all their flavors are right on. I have also been delving into their soba noodles - the tempura udon is great. Be ready to wait for a seat on Friday and Saturday nights.

I dread seeing a large party streaming through the door because you wont be able to hea... read more
paying for the look of the place not the food. – if i were you id just go down the street to hana's. but if you must be trendy and are an uptown hipster than you'll probabley love ninja. the service is subpar and the sushi is alittle high priced for what you get. also the miso soup almost all water and no soy. they do have a cool clock on the wall that does this cool thig every hour, go see for youself. i also have found pieces of crab shell and shrimp peelings in my roll before, not good. just not worth it and all hype to m... read more
great all over – They cater for vegetarians here. You get noodles, and vege sushi options and tofu. They also have a great ice-cream dessert and have good carrot cake for a Japanese restaurant.
This active sushi bar turns out beautiful rolls and sashimi for crowds of loyal customers. – The Scene Ninja had to move out of its close quarters to accommodate the crowds that would gather for it's first rate sushi and other Japanese fare. Though things can still get crowded with students, Uptown regulars and young families toting small children, it's worth it. The Food The sushi bar dominates the house and the menu, but meat-eaters will also find a fair amount of traditional grilled teriyaki options, as well as tempura, d... read more
Best sushi! – I have gone to most Japanese restaurants in the area and Ninja has, by far the best sushi! It is always fresh! I love it.
