We went to New Ginza this weekend with the extended family, who were here for my graduation this past weekend. It was a great dining experience, and I will definitely return.
Many members of my family ordered the Bento box, which was a steal at $16.95. Included in the Bento box are a bowl of miso soup, two skewers with grilled meat (beef and chicken), a salad, 5 pieces of sashimi (tuna and salmon), a few pieces of shrimp tempura, a California roll, pickled vegetables, and ice cream. I tried the salmon sashimi from the bento box (hee hee, neither my sister nor mom eat sashimi, so I helped them out 😉 and it was very fresh and tasty.
Bryan and I also ordered several different maki rolls. Ginza has several unusual and inventive rolls that you won’t see anywhere else. For example, we ordered the Super Crazy Maki Roll, which had raw fish, cilantro, jalapeno, avocado, and several other ingredients (which I can’t remember) all wrapped in a thin daikon sheet. All the maki rolls were expertly made and all were delicious.
The green tea ice cream that came with the bento box was good. We tried to order the fried ice cream, but unfortunately, they had run out.
Over all, I would highly recommend this restaurant. The prices were reasonable – typical for a nicer sushi restaurant.

Jeff had a car last weekend, so I combed your blog looking for good restaurants off the T. We ended up at New Ginza, and ordered the agedashi tofu and sushi boat. The agedashi tofu was pretty good, and we really liked the sushi boat. There’s also a nice park two blocks away that you can walk to if there’s a wait for tables. Thanks for the recommendation!
