Banzai Marina - Ventura

Food- 5 stars I keep coming back to Banzai Marina for their weekday lunch specials priced at 12.99. The sushi is always fresh, portions are generous, and the value is excellent. I also recommend trying the fried oysters. The pacing of the meal was perfect for a quick lunch break. The happy hour deals are also worth trying. Service- 5 stars The servers at Banzai Marina were attentive but not overbearing, providing excellent service throughout our visit. Bottom Line Banzai Marina truly excels in all aspects: fantastic food, great service, and excellent value. It is definitely one of my favorite spots in downtown Ventura.

The sushi roll was good, but everything else didn't justify the cost.

Delicious sushi ? we were very hungry! Tried an assortment of rolls! Very satisfying ??Parking: It's across the street but very easy to access and a short walk to the restaurant.Dietary restrictions: Keto/Atkins friendly options for those who want a sushi experience without rice.

Yelpers scared us so we made a dinner reso for 5pm on a Wednesday no one there yet but pretty full by 6pm when we left the place is small but not tiny. sushi bar still without seats. service good. Food was amazing. We started with a couple happy hour items: Hot sake and yellow tail hand rolls both excellent. We will try other things on their HH menu next time. Also got tempura green beans this place really knows how to tempura properly light not greasy, crunchy excellent shrimp temp in our rolls also. green beans were huge 2 4 can share. Also tried miso soup with clams very good and large enough for 2. Our Nigiri sushi included yellowtail (large, fresh, melt in your mouth), fresh water eel (large, delicious) and scallops(chopped in mayo and green onion) just to die for would be my last request if lined up for the electric chair. Only room for one roll Kumi absolutely excellent. We will be back.

Love love love this place. Food is excellent every time. Humble atmosphere, you'll be glad you found it.
