Omakase at Yuzu Omakase in Phoenix, Arizona, USA – Reddit

This restaurant puts up a solid case for best sushi in Arizona. The $95 omakase is very reasonable for the quality and taste of the sushi. The chef was very knowledgably and kind, answered any questions I threw at him, he was also very funny. I will definitely be returning in the future.

Omakase experience was unreal and unexpected. Every fish was fresh and had the same texture as if we were eating it in Japan or Taiwan. They even had fish from Yuma which was a surprise. The chef made mouth watering combinations to highlight the fish/eel/uni and we definitely ordered another round of our favorites after the omakase. Overall pleasantly surprised! Don’t let the location fool you!! It’s a gem of a sushi place.

One of the best nigiri sushi I’ve eaten. And I’ve had a lot. Do yourself a favor and order what’s in season (and eat as prepared, skip extra soy or wasabi, the chef makes it ready to eat).

At my visit it was yellow tuna belly and black cod. The yellow tail was lightly fatty, tender and had the most subtle and clean taste of the sea, just a hint.

But it was the black cod with a tiny bit of yuzu koshu and flaky salt. Brief flash of flame to add the hint of charred fat and depth. Truly one of the top 5 bites I’ve ever had as a life long sushi eater.

Marinated tuna aguachili was excellent as well.

Very charming intimate atmosphere and helpful staff.

Had the 10-piece omakase lunch. Everything was absolutely delicious. Each piece of fish was perfectly cut and very tender with excellent flavors. The rice was very well cooked and the overall experience was superb. Very happy to have this new sushi restaurant in my neighborhood.

The omakase was phenomenal. Easily 5 stars. We were in heaven with every carefully crafted bite. What threw us off was the ambiance, which deserves a 3. The space looks and feels more like a basic sushi joint / sports bar, with TVs playing sporting matches right in front of the omakase bar, club music blaring, fake plants, and just not much attention paid to atmosphere. I have no doubt that should the owners match the ambiance and space to the exquisite quality of the food, Yuzu would be even better.

Booked the omakase! The chef was very friendly and accommodating ensured everyone had a great time!

This was different from other omakases I’ve had in the past as those ones were really focused on ingredients and kept flavors simple and minimal to highlight by the quality of those ingredients. Yuzu was a nice surprise as there was a lot of play with different flavor combinations and using non-traditional ingredients. I enjoyed this as it incorporated some local ingredients from AZ and influenced by some of the local cuisines. Every bite was a delight! Still thinking about that hand roll.

Good indicator of ingredient quality was the uni as it was creamy and savory. If you’ve had bad uni you know mean.

Overall for the price of $85 it’s definitely worth it for the number of courses and if you are looking for a more lowkey omakase experience.

*Just please be respectful on arriving on time as it can throw off the timing for chef if some people show up late.

It was our anniversary so we decided to enjoy a unique experience here. After reading the reviews, we booked an Omakase experience for two. Similar to many other reviews, we had an amazing and memorable experience. Each dish was made in front of us. We were educated on what we were eating, where each fish came from (all fresh, by the way). We had some seasonal options. Each one was unique and SO delicious! We had 13 courses and a cup of miso soup (also very delicious).

Omasake was not something that I thought should be on a bucket list but I highly recommend everyone who enjoys sushi to experience this at least once in their life.

A couple came in to see if they could sit in for Omasake but they were turned away. So note to everyone, book online beforehand to secure your spot.

I didn’t make this reservation lightly—I was celebrating something special. I booked the reservation through the Yelp app, which clearly states “Make a reservation — Table for 2,” as shown in the image I’ve uploaded. I also uploaded an example from a different restaurant showing the proper way to offer different dining options when taking reservations.

I was so excited about this visit that I arrived early and walked around the plaza, eagerly waiting for them to open. Once the restaurant opened, we walked in to find only one waitress and the owner working. The owner insisted on charging the two of us for Omakase. I explained that I had booked a table, not Omakase, and that my wife doesn’t eat sushi. This led to a confrontation that lasted what felt like far too long, completely spoiling what could have been a perfect day.

Despite the rocky start, we still ordered quite a bit, hoping to make the best of the experience. Unfortunately, the sushi was average at best, and the up-charges for searing were absolutely ridiculous. In hindsight, we shouldn’t have bothered—it wasn’t worth it.

Coming from the restaurant world, I can confidently say that being a great chef doesn’t necessarily mean you can also be the face of the restaurant or handle the business side effectively, even if it’s your own establishment.

Yuzu Omakase!!!! Highly recommend!!!! If you are a lover of sushi, this is an amazing experience and expression of sushi. You get to try 12 different sushi creations. The chef is knowledgeable and awesome. Perfect date night.

I flew in for the Omakase experience and it did not disappoint. The fish was so fresh to the point I had to ask the chef where is he getting it in the dessert. Every bite was amazing and worth the 95.00. I even ordered hot sake which was only 12.00 dollars. My only wish was that they wrapped the sake bottle in a warm towel as the sake cooled off towards the end.
Total combined for both chefs, they have 24yrs of experience which speaks volumes for the taste, how they used seasonal ingredients and how they were in sink during the prep for each course.
