Amazing quality in food and service, despite how busy it can get! I would say that expanding the location to more than a couple of tables in a small building space could help with the wait times, but truly, something about the smaller and more intimate space maintains the quality treatment you feel as a customer while dining in. We went on a Friday evening at around 6, and had to wait about 30 minutes, but it was so worth it. The waitresses do it all and keep a respectful approach to their work, while the sushi chefs are clearly passionate about the presentation and quality of their food. Highly recommend to anyone in the Ahwatukee area looking for fresh quality fish and creative rolls!

The best sushi Ive had in the Phoenix area, such an evident level of care and love on each plate! The chefs took time to check in on our table and offer suggestion, made us feel very valued. Coming back for omakase!

Popped in here by chance – delicious sushi, friendly staff, modern and yet welcoming interior! I was greeted warmly and when I asked, was recommended several types of nigiri! The fish was fresh and the ingredients full of flavor, and I loved the unique flavor combinations the owner has come up with! I came toward the end of lunch, and was the only one there.

Tonight was our first experience at Nakano. This was some of the best sushi I have ever had! The flavors are creative and intriguing. The quality of the fish, especially the Toro and halibut, was exceptional! We were also pleasantly surprised with our bill… this quality of sushi at their price just cannot be beat!! We will be back!!

So I normally go to another place here in Awatukee for sushi, which is very good decided to try someplace new and this place blew it away. The artistic presentation of the sushi the Customer Service, the smiling faces that very intimate ambience. Both my daughter and I loved it. Will definitely be coming back here versus the other place.

Had 2 course omakase. Nice presentation. Smoked mackerel was my favorite. The cured and aged sushi wasn’t my thing but I like the other two nigiri and that they had anago. Service is good and the chef is friendly.
Edit: Went back this year after hearing they reopened and am so glad I did. The quality is consistent and I like trying a variety of fish. They have specials every week and personal attention by chef (it’s a small sushi bar) so I have been back a few times because you can’t beat the value. I’d eat here weekly if I could. Hope they bring back the omakase.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable sushi dining experience. Every aspect of my visit exceeded any expectation — the service was appropriately attentive and everybody was friendly, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and, the food itself… I have not stopped thinking about my food. I can’t wait to come back.
