I used to really love this place so this makes me upset BUT here goes. I come here every week and get all you can eat and I tip my waitress everytime, during the day there is usually just one waitress. Rarely are there two. But today there were two. So I thought, Ill get twice as much attention. There were two people at the bar and two tables being used on the floor where I was. 1)They gave me the menu once and never came back with it 2) they walked by every table and asked if everything was okay one table at a time and skipped mines everytime they did so. 3) I never got my second round of all you can eat, I usually order 3 times. The one time one of them made eye contact with me she came over and asked was I done. And in my head Im thinking if Im paying 24$ for just one round Im definitely not tipping. This just bugged me so much because I come every freaking week and I tip and Im always nice to them and Im patient. The waitress was so happy when I asked for the check. I was clearly mad and she smiled at me anyways. I come alone every week and with a group of atleast 12 friends every month and now Im never coming back. I guess its time to find a new place.

Service is good! Food is wonderful! This place offers a happy hour menu as well as an all you can eat menu. The magic here lies in chef Kays Ninniku Albacore plate. Other specials "Twins" and "I dont know". They offer a fusion style mix of Korean an Japanese specialties as well as traditional style sushi. If you are interested in the best service for cheap all you can eat style sushi...this is NOT your place. They are at their best making the creative fusion Korean/Japanese that put them on the map. Enjoy!

Service has been getting worse and worse. Been coming here for the AYCE and we were sitting at the bar with only 2 other tables occupied in the restaurant and it took the two sushi chefs 45 minutes to make 3 rolls and 5 sushi orders. The chefs were looking at us like we were inconveniencing them. Sad because this place use to be good. If you looking for better sushi head to sprouts across the street....this coming from someone that lives 2 blocks away.

All u can eat sushi good line up on menu rolls are delicious but the sushi chef is very slow takes his time and if they see u can get down with eating sushi they start adding alot more rice to the roll & refilling ur beverage quick old trick to expand the rice in ur belly. Good atmosphere. Great food but I find they are tight with there fish.... overall good food. Its quality not quantity.

there is an Its a Grind coffee shop I frequent in this shopping center, and when Ginzaya opened up next door I was not sure it was going to meet my ridiculously high standards (read: snobby) however the very friendly waitresses and humorous and outgoing chefs has made this one of my favorite places to eat! oh, and the food is amazing too ;-D

Service is awful if you dont get all you can eat the place is horrible! They will ignore your order they brought us the wrong thing and then they tried to say it was our fault me we had to pay for it. Horrible horrible horrible service. our hole group was very disappointed. Expencive they try to take advantage of you and service is horrible.

The best sushi place hands down. Not only is the food affordable, but its delicious! We come here at least twice a week. They have happy hour all day everyday and we especially enjoy the dollar sakes. During lunch, the kids get a free meal!! The workers have become like family to us. We will definitely keep coming back! <3

I love Ginzaya Japanese Restaurant and always eat here when I need something quick and delicious. The food is made fresh in front of you and the service is always friendly. Normally I take it to go, its a great place to eat if youre looking for something quick.

So-So! Definitely not the best place to eat. Service was slow even though there was only one other table in the place. And, the food wasnt that great. Chicken Teriyaki was tough and overcooked. Rolls were average. Definitely better places around.

Service is bad. Sat there for 15 minutes and no one came to take our order. Sat us down and never came back. I wouldnt know if the food was good or not, never ate it because NO ONE took our order. bad service!

I ordered food to go and got totally ripped off on the quantity of my rolls. The rolls were also warm and not very good at all. I will never go back. Worst sushi experience!

The food is great, and the typical sushi chef is awesome and very friendly. The service isnt so good, and ranges from mediocre to terrible, but I dont care. Its that good.

Excellent "locals only" sushi experience. Service is prompt and quality is top notch! Given the many neighborhood sushi options, Ginzaya easily rises about the rest.

The miso was watery, the salmon was flavorful. They do not honor the ad on the web and charge dinner prices at lunch. I was disappointed.

Always amazing sushi. Ask for Kay to be your chef and order Omakase, you will not be dissapointed.
