Ninja Sushi and Hibachi

Tried a new sushi restaurant last night with friends, Irene and Buddy.
Ninja is in far Northeast Philly at Bustleton  and Philmont. They advertise 1/2 priced sushi.  It's a common play in Northeast sushi places. Nonetheless, the sushi was very fresh, nicely presented and quite inexpensive.  I highly recommend this new byob.

Started with Yellowtail belly, Uni and Salmon.  All sashimi


Next we shared a lettuce wrap with chicken.  (More Chinese than sushi).


Our next dish was Crunchy Spicy Salmon Tartar, hold the mayo.  Well  made.  Could have been a bit spicier.


Next plate had Octopus sashimi, Eel on Eel roll, Spicy crunchy Salmon roll with brown rice, Japan One Roll, and Tuna Sashimi. 


Naruto roll.  Salmon wrapped in cucumber with lighter sauce.


Finished with an encore of Uni (fresh, firm and delicious).  Also Quail egg and Salmon egg sushi, Yellowtail sashimi, and White tuna sashimi.
Had some nice cold Sake, excellent Pinot Noir and a Roussanne from the Languedoc.  
Price with tax before tip:  $112.  Very reasonable.  As an old friend would say:
"Oy, vat a deal!"
