My favorite sushi spot, everything is AWLAYS PERFECT! I’ve been coming here for years, and will never stop coming. I always start with an oyster shooter and a Sapporo on draft. If it’s happy hour you are lucky and they have some great deals on hand rolls. I’m not a huge fan of crab or lobster in general, with the exception of the lobster dynamite roll, it is outstanding. The ninja roll is like an elevated spicy tuna crispy rice, never had anything like it and once again is outstanding. At this point I will try anything they will make me, if you are an adventurous eater, ask if they have any specials. The most delightful couple runs the place and always has, you can typically find the husband behind the sushi bar making your food with precision and love, so be kind be patient and get ready to leave so full and happy.

This place shocked me! My buddy from SB recommended coming here. I’ve passed by this place multiple times and didn’t think much. After a couple of recommendations from my friend I decided to try it out! Wow. Banzai did not disappoint! First of all, locally sourced and you can taste good ingredients. A bunch of celebrities have gone here as well. Do not let the appearance trick you, the food is awesome. Definitely recommend the pork & chicken gyoza, crunchy tempura roll, spicy salmon roll, and then California roll. Yew, will for sure walk back to here!! Make a reservation!!

Banzai Marina is easily one of the best sushi restaurants in Ventura County. The fish is always incredibly fresh, and the chefs do an amazing job with both traditional sushi and creative specialty rolls. I highly recommend the Kumi Roll and the yellowtail sushi — both are consistently excellent.

The quality here is top-tier and remarkably consistent. You can tell the chefs take pride in their work, and the ingredients are always high quality. The location in downtown Ventura is ideal, especially if you’re spending the day near the beach or looking for a great dinner spot in the area.

Banzai Marina is a go-to for anyone who appreciates fresh sushi, friendly service, and a relaxed, coastal atmosphere. One of my favorite spots in Ventura.

The food is good but not exceptional. The service is awful — as soon as you walk through the door, the vibe from the staff (especially the chef and manager) is sullen and resentful. I’ve been in here several times, and my experience was the same each time.

Sushi by the beach, this restaurant has dining with raw fish to accommodate your tastes. Great location here in Ventura, California. Service is fast. Buy 1 drink next one free. Private entrance for celebrities and private parties.

Banzai Marina has been our go-to sushi place for a few years now. They have the best staff, the best sushi chef/owner, and super good high quality fish. Everything here is reliably delicious from the melt in your mouth toro to the rolls. We’ve taken many friends here over the years and every one of them has always been impressed. Definitely the best sushi in the area if not for many many more miles.

Ewwwwwwww…. What a disappointment. I’m not sure why anyone on the internet would recommended this place, Reddit is like roulette I guess. WAAAYYYY OVERPRICED for what you get. And the sushi is only ok. It tastes like any other sushi restaurant, but more money and smaller pieces. Save yourself the trip if you’re looking for something new.

The BEST sushi around! Yuji definitely knows what he’s doing. The sushi is the freshest sushi I’ve ever eaten (and I try all sushi restaurants). We live 25 min away with other sushi restaurants near us but I would rather make a reservation and come see Yuji. Highly recommend and I promise you will not be disappointed! Some of my favorites are Black Snapper sushi, Halibut sushi, yellowtail and octopus sushi. His Uni shooters are hands down the best around.
