Ninki Japanese Bistro

Ninki is an awesome restaurant. The staff kept checking on us seeing if we needed anything, the food was amazing I haven’t had sushi that tasted that good in my life. The owner stop at the table talking to the customers seeing what they like and what they don’t and how they could improve it. The dessert was to due for, like it hit our table and was gone in seconds. This place is a great place to go.

We visited a few nights ago. Saturday evening I think. I loved the Filipino restaurant that was here and was so sad to see it go. We try to support local new businesses in Newburgh whenever possible. We were greeted and seated quickly. The hostess was very sweet and quickly got us a high chair for our toddler.
We sat and waited… and waited for someone to greet us take orderes etc. We waited… a few different people came by and spoke to our toddler. We waited… after 15 minutes of no one taking our drink order we left. No one noticed we hadn’t eaten and we were thanked as we walked out… by the same hostess.
No idea how the food is, and we likely wont return.
I hope it is good Newburgh needs more places to eat.
We went to alcapulco were seated quick ate and went home.

Wow! Everything was wonderful. Fast service even on a busy night. Will definitely be visiting again!

Went for lunch sushi was ok not bad but have had much better. Steak was salty price was high friendly staff and good service tho

I have been here several times with larger groups every time. I love this place. Anytime my friends and I get together, we choose here to eat. Reservations are usually made so wait is always minimal. In total, we usually order 15 rolls all together and they are always great. So fresh and tasty. The pork potstick appetizer is amazing as well. I enjoyed the hibachi and both soup and salad are yummy. The fruit boat desert was excellent and fresh. There is occasionally a wait for food, but my entire group agrees it’s worth it. This is the only place one of my friends will eat sushi. Thank you for a great experience every time!

My new favorite restaurant in the area!!! I went here last week for dinner with my mom and we were so impressed! I’m so happy that Newburgh has a sushi restaurant now! The owners made us a special dessert just because! The prices are great and the food is amazing! I recommend trying a sushi roll and getting «The Rock» for an appetizer! We will definitely be coming back soon!

Food was great this time around. I had the Ohio river. Very tasty. Nice staff too. But I posted a review couple weeks ago on this place that wasn’t very pleasant and I guess the owners complain to Unilocal and they deleted it off their post. Just makes you think of these reviews really true if an owner of establishment can call Unilocal and get it reviews removed.

Went last night at about 630 and expected a crowd. Luckily, we were ahead of the crowd by about 5 min. I was surprised to be seated in a plywood booth painted black with a plywood foot support underneath. From everything that I read about Ninki before we went, I expected something else. Anyway, we were seated and shortly after our server came to take our drink order and it was obvious he was NOT HAPPY TO BE WAITING on such lowly people as us. You could literally hear the disdain drip from his mouth and see his eyes roll back into his head. When I asked about «adult beverages» he sighed heavily and said they had no liquor license yet. Ok, no biggie. Approximately 10 min later he came to get our order. It came shortly after… and we never saw the server again until AFTER I asked the hostess for more drinks. He then came back and asked «what can I do for you?» to which I replied, «Just the check, thanks.» There were 2 women to the side of our table that literally sat 25 min before they were served beverages and I saw their server 2x. The 2^nd was to make an excuse for not bringing their waters 15 min previous. I don’t even think they ordered by the time we left… Granted, there was a wait a few min after we got there, however, the service SUCKED; between the condescending server we had and having to track down the hostess for beverages… wow…
I ordered miso soup and I received mostly water with a few bits of tofu. There was little taste to the soup and I was very disappointed. I ordered 2 rolls, and my meal companions ordered 2 rolls and a meal off the menu. The rolls were ok, nothing to write home about. I wouldn’t make a special trip for the rolls again. If I happen to be in the area and want to see if the service has improved, I’d go again, maybe. I didn’t try the meal from the menu but was told it was «Pretty good.» I only remember it started with a «B.» lol
In general, disappointed and for $ 70 in Newburgh, I expected better.

We had appetizers, sushi rolls and hibachi. We wanted to try it all, since we have high hopes for this place.
The food was excellent. It did come out a little slow, but they have help wanted signs posted.
The sushi was delicious. We frequent other places in Evansville, but this will definitely get into the rotation. Newburgh was in need of a place like this.
The interior of the restaurant was very nice. You can tell they put a lot of though into the décor. Everything has been redone. Nice presentation!
You should try the «Thunder over the Ohio» roll. It was great.

Me and my fiancé love sushi, so when I new place opens up we have to try it out. When you walk in the place is beautiful and not to brightly lit so you can enjoy your meal and relax. They were playing some classic rock (beatles) but not to loud. We choose from a rather large selection of delicious sounding sushi rolls. The 812 roll comes out on fire and was the best of the 5 we got. The derby roll and the greatly named angry ex girlfriend were great tasting starter rolls for a sushi lover or novice. The spider rook was not only beautiful (as was all of the food) bit the textures and layers of flavor were out of this world. We finished it off with a smoked salmon nigiri which was light and fresh as can be. All in all the best sushi place I’ve ever been too. Also on another note the service was the best I’ve ever had possibly.
