Overall just a little lacking
Prices are good for quantity – but maybe scale back the quantity a smidge and focus on quality. They have some unique items. Variety of food. Nothing was bad- just nothing was great.
We came in at 230pm and it was a ghost town. We thought it was closed at first.
The floor was entirely dirty. Tables clean but very obviously quickly wiped- you could see sticky patches.
Service was good, some moments they did take a while. What threw my appetite off – one of the workers was very obviously sick and could be heard coughing multiple times. I don’t want that around my food. We sat in awkward silence the first 20 minutes until they figured out the radio. It’s dark inside- so it really felt like the last five minutes of lunch before they let you out for recess in primary/middle school.
The decor is nice. Restrooms are clean. The water is tap.

First time visiting this place. Service was good. The sashimi plating wasn’t appealing & pieces were small. The fish tasted fine. However, the presentation is a crucial element of sushi, both in traditional Japanese sushi & even here in the Valley. It enhances the dining experience; it creates a more enjoyable experience.

Food was not good. Chicken wings tasted frozen. My eel roll had bones in it. Dammed was so yummy. Not a place I would go again. Drinks were good price..alcohol wise. The tea was not good. Service was excellent.

We have made this our new Sushi place! After trying everything in the area this was the best quality+price+service combination, the sushi is always great, everything we have ordered from the bar (mixed drinks and beer) were perfect. We are always greeted with kind words and great wait staff, they have a pretty wide variety of rolls going from about $5-$14 ish range. Overall, haven’t had a bad experience yet!

The food is alright. Nothing to write home about. The beers are big. The waitress was pretty much non existent during our visit even with there being very few other patrons in the restaurant.

We tried this place on a wimb. The restaurant had beautiful decorations. We were seated immediately. The waitress did offer to seat us closer to the TV if we wanted to see the game. We kindly declined. She immediately asked us our drink order and gave us menus. Speedy service is always a plus w this AZ sun. With in five minutes of us being there we had drinks and had our appetizers ordered. We unknowingly went in during happy hour and seen they had alot of rolls on special for that time.
We ordered a spicy salmon roll, a Philly roll & a Las Vegas roll. We also had 2 orders of salmon nigiri & an order of veggie spring rolls. The food took about 10 minutes to start coming out. We got the salmon nigiri & spring rolls first. The salmon was VERY thickly cut & it was Delicious! The ginger was fresh and rice was seasoned well. I will definitely be back for that. The spring rolls on the other hand, we both were not fans of. They definitely tasted like old grease and the inside was grey. I put that down after bite 1. We recieved the platter of sushi after another 5 minutes. Our Philly, spicy salmon & las vegas were on there. They are heavy w the rice on all 3 rolls. We started w the spicy salmon. The roll was great! The sauce on the salmon w the amount of rice was perfectly paired. It coated the rice in your mouth and spreads the spicy goodness all over. Every bite a new blend of flavors with a crispy crunch & snap of the seaweed. The Philly roll was ok to me. My husband loved the fact that they use a huge block of cream cheese in it but it honestly over took the entire flavor of the roll for myself. Our least favorite was the Las Vegas roll. The batter used was way too sweet for that type of a roll. We honestly took one out of the 8 rolls each and did not eat the rest. It almost tasted like a sweet corn dog batter but instead of a thick batter it’s really thin. Either way, I did not enjoy the sweetness w the fish. We asked for our check shortly after and our total was $51 and change. Not to bad. We would try this place again in the future. I decided to give 4 stars because we had a great server and they were fast. Worth a shot. I definitely reccomend the salmon nigiri!!

The staff was friendly. The food was pleasing to the eyes and taste buds. My son really enjoyed the caterpillar roll. The Marilyn Mon Roll was really good too and funny to order. I chose the Typhoon which is a beautiful tower. Each layer was tasty in itself, but was a nice surprise when taking a bite containing all layers. This place is a cozy spot to have an intimate meal. The only downside that I wish they would have prioritized is cleanliness and safety. Our drinks were spilled when setting on our table that luckily did not get on us, but was on our table side our entire meal time. I was worried for not only the staff walking by so much, but everyone and ourselves who could have slipped. I did not want to move around my table to avoid stepping on it. They attempted to clean it, but still left a lot of liquid puddled up. I would recommend either a better mop to clean with one attempt or better effort. With cleanliness, this place would be a five star.

Super mids. Nothing was gross but our table was wobbly, service was very slow and unnatentive, and the place wasn’t quite dirty but it didn’t feel clean either.
The sashimi was cut poorly, and presented even worse. A real sushi chef would never just throw all the fish on top of each other with such rough cuts.
The rolls were either overpacked with mayo or empty containing nothing. Probably won’t come back.

Hands down the best sushi in town. We are regulars! Being originally from CA and knowing the taste of fresh seafood, this comes really close if not better. Rolls are big and flavorful. They don’t skimp out like most sushi places around here do. Quick service, affordable, great atmosphere. This place is a hidden gem.
