Typical Japanese style restaurant with good service and food but needs to be updated. Not that crowded the night we went for a birthday celebration and the service still seemed a little slow. The waitstaff seemed to be more focused on group conversation in the kitchen than serving customers. We will try again with higher expectations.

The first time I visited Sushi Ninja was 12 years ago in the old location. I wasn't too impressed with the sushi during that visit. I can't remember why, but I think it had something to do with the eel sauce. Fast forward to today... this doesn't feel like the same place. In fact, it totally exceeded my expectations. It's in a bigger and brighter location where Burger Monger used to be. I love everything that they did to renovate this space. The atmosphere went from a 3 star to a 5 star as soon as they opened up the new location. I was also impressed with the service, and the attention to details.I've been there twice in the last 2 days. I know, we have many great sushi restaurants in the Brandon/Riverview/Valrico area. They're all special in their own way. But this place is unique in that they also have boba milk teas and smoothies, as well as a build your own poke bowl menu. I was so happy to have a milk tea of my choice along with some sushi. There's a huge variety of sushi rolls. Most of them are specialty rolls. There are a lot with cream cheese (if that's your thing). I don't like cream cheese in my sushi rolls, but I'm pretty sure that I can ask for one without it. I ended up selecting the Ninja Lobster Roll. It was pretty awesome! The baked cheesy lobster topping really took it to the next level. The only negative to some people would be that the rolls are small, and maybe rolled more tightly than other sushi rolls I've had in the past. It's not a bad thing IMO. I was actually happy with the smaller pieces. I hate when they roll them too big. I also had eel and salmon nigiri. The issue I had with the eel sauce in the past is totally behind me now. Oh, and I almost forgot about the appetizer. The TNT Mussels are the best I've had in a while. It had a nice mixture of Japanese mayo, wasabi, and masago. Very tasty! Everything tasted great. I liked it so much that I went back for lunch. This was a take away order. This time I got the make your own poke bowl (salmon), the New York Yankee Roll, and an avocado smoothie. What a treat! I loved the house poke sauce and everything that I picked to go into the bowl. My mother liked the fried fish protein in her bowl. Everything blended well together. The sushi roll had my 3 favorite types of fish (tuna, salmon, and escolar). The rolls were small, but it was definitely more fish than rice. Again, it was just rolled more tightly so that it doesn't fall apart. Last but not least, the avocado smoothie was so good. It was sweet, smooth, & creamy. I wasn't expecting that. It was the perfect dessert drink. They totally have me hooked now. I'm looking forward to the next visit. Can't wait to try more sushi rolls like the Mardi Gras and Dancing Eel rolls. Oh, and it's all right here in Bloomingdale Square. This will be an even better plaza once the renovations and newer stores are constructed. Looking forward to all of that too.

My husband begged me to come here. My daughter wasn't happy at first that we're eating in a parking lot rather than a traditional food establishment setting. Her skepticism quickly turned around when she bit into the pork spring rolls and specialty rice washed down with their homemade brew tea. She didn't want to leave! I immediately tore into my short ribs and ginger slaw. Melted in my mouth! The flavors are so good you don't even want to be full so you can consume more. My husband had pork sandwich with fries sounds simple but it is not. The roll perfectly toasted, the sauce is impeccable and the fries dipped in the sauce that came with was even heavenly. I'm writing this amazed full and happy. If you want good Asian pacific food this is where it is at!

Really enjoy Tsunami, they have great lunch specials and a great variety of regular and specialty sushi rolls along with a great additional variety of Japanese dishes. Atmosphere is nice, dim and clean. Only issue I have is that I think it's ridiculous that they charge addit6for sauces like Yum Yum....no other sushi or Japanese restaurant I go to does that especially when I am paying 11-13 dollars each for specialty rolls. Last time I got the Double J Roll and it was fabulous.

This little place is the best Thai for anywhere around. It's a storefront in a non- descript strip mall. The food is fantastic! I have eaten about half of the things on the menu and they are stellar from top to bottom. The owner/operator/chef is right there cooking everything to order. Everything is fresh and delicious. There are only about 30 seats and a couple servers who do a good job of helping you understand the menu. Which, by the way, is very tight, focused and straight forward. I have spoken to the owner and she is very committed to producing the freshest possible food and preparing it her way. They are also very willing and able to spice it up and can make dishes from mild to Thai Spicy. I have climbed the Spice ladder with them and it is the real thing.My companion had the Green Papaya with cabbage and veggie fried rice. I had the spiciest variety of broad noodles with veggies and also the veggie fresh summer rolls which came with a lovely rice vinegar and nut dipping sauce. This little place is the real thing and I cannot wait to return.

The food seemed very authentic and the service was very friendly. value for money is high and it seemed to be a popular place. the only downside is the appearance, it looks dirty even though I do thing it was, signs are half hanging outside, tables are not cleaned until they are needed it seems. I will eat here again, I had their central Pho which was filled with flavor and well worth the money.

Loved this place. Went to dinner with our boss on the last night of a job we were working on nearby. The food was amazing. Best crab Rangoon I have ever had. Tried six different rolls of sushi and they were all great. Service was very good. Can't wait to go back.

Our family of 5 went here as a special treat. The day before, we made a reservation using OpenTable for 5:30pm on a Saturday. We arrived and were seated within about 5 minutes. We were seated with 5 strangers, because the tables seat 10. The service was very good, and the chef was great. Yes, it's all the same tricks, and it's no Las Vegas-quality production, but we all enjoyed it (especially the kids who were seeing the various tricks for the first time). The food was very well cooked and seasoned. They happily accommodated a vegan in our group by preparing his dish (rice, tofu, mixed vegetables) in the back kitchen and bringing it out separately. All in all, it's a little pricey, but it's for a special occasion, and so would happily return!Thank you for dining with us! We appreciate and value your patronage and hope you will continue to make our restaurants your dining choice.

From the moment you enter this nondescript restaurant you feel Thailand. The decor, waitstaff, sounds and smells all add to the wonderful ambiance. The meals were so impressive we both agreed it was the top Thai restaurant And our experiences in our US travels and in several countries. Every dish seemed perfect.

We started off with some Thai spring rolls. Then our three entrees showed up, which we split four ways. It was an excellent meal for four discerning palates. We live in St. Pete and would seriously consider devising reasons to eat here again. Seems like a good stop on the way to see family in Polk County.
