A significant aspect of dining is feeling valued and respected by the servers and the management. Positive attitude and kindness, a welcoming energy and kind tone go a long way. We spent almost $300 here the other night. Service was sadly very poor. We felt rushed like they wanted us to just eat ‘n go. The waitresses and the manager/or owner were rude and impatient, not warm towards us at all, like we were being a burden to them. The environment felt severely overcrowded, like they’ve maximized every inch of the room. Kudos to the younger staff who were nice. We have decided to never return here again.

Great friendly place. Nina our waitress was really nice and friendly. And the sushi is out of this world. Location overlooks the harbor.

Simply the best, but expect a wait. Don’t worry it’s worth it. Sushi bar is back open

Anaba Sushi has been our favorite go-to sushi place for over a decade. My uncle is a commercial fisherman and if HE says, it’s the best, you know it is! Service is great – our favorites are Salmon Lover, Ninja, and Hawaiian rolls.

I have really enjoyed going to Ababa Sushi for several years but find it hard to go as my spouse has dietary limitations that make it difficult for her to eat certain dishes. That said we went today as I was craving Japanese food and I was frankly shocked at the female server’s attitude. Although we explained that my spouse needed an alternative salad dressing due to an allergy she was unwilling to check if the kitchen had any vinegar and oil. What are the chances that a Japanese kitchen doesn’t have sesame oil and rice vinegar? She kept saying that they did not do any substitutions which was fair but then she did not seem willing to work with us on an allergy. Then when I asked for the remainder of my daughter’s plate to be boxed, she tossed it. On the flip side, everything we ate was delicious except the dessert was a bit lackluster. The salmon teriyaki was very tasty and a good portion and the rice had a bit of black rice mixed in which was fun. The salad and miso soup were ordinary but good and my daughter said the BBQ short ribs were yummy. My spouse enjoyed her edamame and gyoza and I enjoyed my brown rice green tea. The tempura banana green tea dessert was only okay- the bananas tasted a bit green but it had a lovely presentation. In short, great food but don’t go if you have dietary limitations. We likely won’t be back for a while which is unfortunate as I enjoyed my meal.

There is no doubt that the quality of sushi here is top….. However, I felt the service was second to third….

Whether you like traditional or American style sushi, or if a cooked entree is what you’re craving, Anaba is amazing! My go-to is chirashi because it lets the always-excellent quality of fish really shine, but the American style rolls and appetizers have compelling flavors that can’t be beat! Treat yourself and give Anaba a try!

Had chirashi bowl and unaju. Fish was fresh, light and flavorful. Eel was delicious and all the rice was fresh. Had banana tempura with green tea ice cream that was top notch. Great place overall!!
