I used to come here very frequently but the service has taken a nosedive. They close at 10, we walked in at 9:20 and they said they weren’t going to seat is because it was a slow night, they were going to go ahead and close soon. This is not only bad customer service but bad business. You create a benchmark for service and hit it daily. Some days you will rake in the dough, some days will be slow, but if you consistently take care of your clientele they will take care of you. I will not be returning. There are other good options for Japanese in owensboro.

Service was a bit slow. I had to wait quite awhile for someone to seat me. The hostess seemed surprised that I was standing there asking to be seated while I stood beside a sign that said «please wait to be seated».
However…the price (50% off may favorite rolls) made up for the slow initial service. The rolls tasted good and the final price was phenomenonal. If I’m ever back in Owensboro, I will definitely go back.

My absolute favorite restaurant. I cannot complain about anything I’ve ordered. Soup and salad are great starters. I’ve ordered about 20 different types of sushi and loved them all. Between my family and I, we’ve had everything on the hibachi menu. All of it is amazingly delicious. I don’t care for noodles in other Japanese restaurants, but Ninki has great noodles. They don’t taste of ginger as much as others. Keep it up ninki!

Boy, does this place blow. Like practically every other review the food is fine. The sushi is okay if a little challenged in the mechanics. It’s the service that makes you want to scream. Which is to say, the servers are not rude they’re just not good servers. It’s almost like this place is an unspoken training ground for inexperienced servers to iron out the bugs in their skills before they leave and give another restaurant their A-​game.
Unfortunately, my menu options in town are rather skint because I don’t eat meat and my stomach is not a big fan of straight carbs. Sigh.

My family enjoyed the terrific atmosphere, great staff and the best sushi in the area! We appreciated the music choice as well! (k-​love rocks!) I highly recommend the Eva Mendez roll! !Mui caliente! We haven’t tried their hibachi yet, but the chef we saw was highly entertaining! With recently lowered prices, quality food, and a great menu, Ninki’s is a fantastic value in a town full of chain restaurants! We’ll be back often!

Use to love this place, but since the remodel the service has gone down each time we’ve ate here. Goodbye we have decided to take our business elsewhere.
Very long wait times for drink refills. Takes forever to get food after we’ve ordered. Food portions have been shrinking as well. This use to be our favorite Japanese restaurant in town but we’ve found another in Wasabi Express.

A little gem in Owensboro. We relocated from SLC and are happy that this place exists to curb our Benihana /​Tempanyaki cravings and at a fraction of the price. Ww love it! Still need to figure out this place and the love of the yum yum sauce. The filet is great.

Ninki’s will probably always be my favorite place in Owensboro to eat. It’s so delicious. I love the Chicken Hibachi, Veggies, Rice, Soup, and the Salad is so tasty.

Hibachi for lunch? Yes, please.
I had the steak/​chicken combo. The meat was good, sauteed veggies were awesome, fried rice was okay, and the soup was okay. Overall i enjoyed the food. The yum yum sauce was the best part.
50% off sushi on Tuesdays is winning, but I can’t vouch for the quality

We were impressed with Ninki. Not long ago, sushi was unheard of in Owensboro. Now, it is widely appreciated. Ninki currently offers 50% off sushi on Tuesdays. The fish is surprisingly fresh and the rolls are inventive and delicious. Of course, they have the standard rolls as well. The hibachi is also quite good, as is the service. My only complaint is the lack of options in the way of Japanese noodle and rice dishes. The main options here are limited to sushi and hibachi. However, this is still a great place with competently prepared, fresh food.
