    Truffle short rib pasta
    Victoria T.

    We came here for restaurant week. The menu was great and delicious, perfect amount of food for me to try a bit of everything on the menu. We each did the restaurant week menu and shared. The appetizer was amazing, we each got the crispy rice and I love that each one was a different fish and slightly different flavor. I don't remember which roll we got, I think it was the blue dragon one, but that was delicious, good amount of rice and fish and great flavor. The truffle rib pasta was good as well, the short ribs were cooked perfectly and the flavor on that was insane. I do wish that they would've tossed the pasta in the same sauce the rib came in before adding it to the red pasta sauce. The pasta sauce itself lacked flavor and just tasted like blended down tomatoes. If the pasta had a scoop of the rib sauce too, that would be absolutely insane!! For dessert we didn't have a choice and it was just the miso caramel cheesecake. Now that is some of the best cheesecake I've had in an incredibly long time. I don't taste the miso flavor in the caramel besides the salty sweetness of it but that combo was perfect, especially with the homemade candied pecans. I don't know if the cheesecake was left out or purposefully like that but I love how when the cheesecake was served it wasn't cold! Usually cheesecake is served really cold and kind of like a cream cheese brick you have to cut into it with your fork. But this was barely chilled so the cheesecake was not super cold and it just melts in your mouth. It's so smooth, best dish of the night hands down. This place was very nice and great location. Everything is clean and a great ambience. There's a bar you can sit at when you walk in before you go to the tables. I do think that every side smaller table should automatically have the table lamp for light because it was just too dark to see the menu from my perspective. It looks like great lighting in the pictures because the phone took it in night mode and corrected the lighting but... it's a bit dark and I saw that they do have those modern battery table lamps so I think every table against the wall should have it. Now onto why it's only 4 stars. The service was so beyond incredibly slow. I kid you not we waited 35min at least before our first dish was served and it wasn't even the appetizer, it was the entree rib pasta. You could tell just how short staffed they were and you could hear that there's only 1 sushi chef 1 regular chef and that's it for the kitchen. I don't know who is managing the shift schedule, maybe it's because we came on Memorial Day, but this type of service is not acceptable. I don't take this on the employees at all. They were so incredibly nice and apologetic and doing the best they can and even the front of house was now bussing tables to help out!!! Because they're so busy, I had to keep reminding different waiters for small things like ginger for my sushi 3x, refill on my water, and he almost said we're good to go without paying the check but we didn't even receive our cheesecake dessert yet OR paid the bill. In total it took us 2 hours from sitting down, ordering within 5min, and waiting and waiting and waiting to eat... inexcusable on management

    Catfished! Pictures are deceptive. This is tough...I was excited to try this place as a trusted foodie friend said the food was good. That was NOT at all my experience. I will mention the place is designed very nicely. For starters the food was bland, except the shishito peppers. The peppers were fantastic and that's the only thing I enjoyed. The ramen was second best compared to the other items. Edamame was good. The sushi roll, seaweed would not break down as I was chewing it and the roll didn't have much flavor to it. Now for the reason for the two stars...the crispy rice. The bites are soooo big I had to cut them in half in order to eat it (good thing) because when I broke the second one in half; I found a black HAIR about the same length of a finger cooked in the rise (I'm blonde by the way). I was shocked and hate complaining. I wasn't going to say anything as I lost my appetite. My friend who was dinning with me, said something politely. The waiter said okay I'll get you another one and ran away with the plate before we got a chance to said we didn't want another one. We saw him show the manager and she okayed him to make another. I was shocked the manager or waiter didn't apologize, wasn't shocked by it, acted normal like nothing was wrong. For this reason I will not be returning. Again my other friend had a great experience and I had a bad one, so 50/50 shot. I know we are human and mistakes happen. It was the way it was handled that drop the rating. Along with bland food for the price.

    Nick was AMAZING! Attention to detail and impeccable customer service. We will come back anytime as long as Nick is here.

    Had a great early evening experience at Obon. It was the weekend before Thanksgiving and the last full rainy day we had in Phx. After coming from the mall and running through the parking lot in the rain, we cozied up at the bar. It was a pretty intimate experience considering that there weren't many ppl inside. Our bartender gave some great suggestions, as it was my first visit. And we unknowingly came in during happy hour, WIN. I had the watermelon sake and my friend had the thaigers blood. For food we ordered the charred shishitos(the dipping sauce is SO GOOD), scallop crispy rice, maki, and the gyoza. I was thoroughly impressed and cannot wait to return.

    Crispy Trio Sampler
    Vivian V.

    We got in for happy hour at 4pm on Black Friday. Slight hesitation as there were so many dirty tables left outside on the patio, same in the restaurant as it was empty.. but the food/ drinks were good & decently priced in the Biltmore area. I recommend grabbing the crispy rice sampler! Best thing we got there

    The restaurant is decorated and laid out nicely mid to upper scale style. They have a regular bar and a sushi bar along with table seating with plenty of space. I tried their spin on the old fashioned which featured Japanese whisky with a hint of citrus and a nutty infusion caused by the roasted sesame seeds. The drink was delicious. I also had to try their Wagyu nigiri which was amazing. My wife says "why didn't you Wagyu tail" lol The sushi rolls were great and flavorful. We also tried both the braised beef and chicken bao buns which are served and prepared taco style as opposed to being stuffed in the bao bun. The only knock on this place was that we had a bit of an inexperienced server who was not as knowledgeable about their menu because he was fairly new.

    Spicy tuna crispy rice and miso cod lettuce cups
    Alicia W.

    I came by for the first time for a Saturday lunch with a friend - I was a bit hesitant since the menu seemed a bit on the fusion-y side of things but was wanting to keep an open mind and try more restaurants around Scottsdale. We were seated immediately, it was pretty empty and a very beautifully decorated restaurant. My friend and I ordered the spicy tuna crispy rice, miso cod lettuce cups, tonkotsu ramen, and a spicy yellowtail roll. I think the spicy tuna crispy rice was just okay, definitely had better. I felt like the rice was maybe a bit too sticky/gummy and there wasn't too much flavor to the tuna. I liked the sauce with the miso cod lettuce cups and felt the cod was tender but it was a bit dry. I did enjoy the tonkotsu ramen - the broth was flavorful and the pork was tender. The yellowtail roll was also decent and had a slightly sweet sauce / taste to it. Overall, I think the food was okay but nothing outstanding especially considering the higher price tag of this restaurant.

    Cucumber mint gin drink (forgot the name)
    Jordan E.

    My partner and I happened to come in the day they implemented a menu change for happy hour and their drinks so I don't remember the names since I can't find them online BUT overall the drinks were fairly yummy! The cucumber mint one I expected to be more on the refreshing side than the sweet side but still tasted good, just a little less simple sugar and maybe add a splash of citrus and it'll boost it. The spicy tuna was great! Only thing was the spicy tuna on top felt like a mile to get through because there's a lot on top but the flavor was great. We also got the dynamite shrimp roll and the edamame which were both great and flavor as well! Our server was attentive and asked us questions about how we felt about the new drinks and I also told her some of my favorite cocktail spots for a good experience. It was fairly quiet in there during happy hour so it made it easy to talk, the lights were dimmed and it matched the whole vibe inside of the building which I loved.

    I was super starving when I decided on this spot. It's located at Biltmore Fashion, so plenty of parking. It's super cute inside, modern decor is nice. Service was fine, friendly. The food though? I wanted to LOVE this place. They have crispy rice which I love. I got the trio bc why not? It sounded better on paper than it tasted. There was not much flavor for anything. Normally I find foods a bit closer to salty, but it really could have used some additional seasoning. It was okay because of the soy sauce and wasabi. It didn't taste bad at all but in comparison to the crispy rice at other places, this would get 4/10. You could tell this fish was of decent quality, but the flavor development was lacking. The rice didn't even taste like it was seasoned. You get 6 pieces for $26. Probably wouldn't get this again. Braised beef bao. The bun was pretty good. This one had some seasoning, beef was decent. It was a little heavy on the pickled ginger but I was wanting some pickled ginger anyway, so I wasn't disappointed. The beef was tender. 6/10 Shishito peppers. Smokey, a bit spicy, seasoned nicely with a sweet but kinda spicy sauce. 9/10. This is almost exactly what I expect from shishito peppers. Would I eat these again, absolutely. Overall, I was disappointed in the crispy rice bc I've had it elsewhere and it tasted better for cheaper. Vibes are good, but the food was mostly mid.

    yellowtail with serrano chili and ponzu sauce. It was just OK, my least favorite out of the 4 rolls i ordered.
    Alison K.

    Very trendy and cute atmosphere. The menu is a bit pricey, but it's nice for a special occasion. I enjoyed all the spicy tuna rolls I ordered. The Crispy rice spicy tuna and scallop were fire.

    Bingo and I did happy hour at Bisutoro Sushi Bar and Grill in Biltmore Fashion Plaza. The patio space is small but dog friendly. The happy hour menu had some great selections and the happy hour prices were very reasonable. The best were the waiters and chef. They were so nice to prepare this salmon cut roll especially for Bingo, so he could have something to eat too. Bingo enjoyed it. I definitely want to go back and try their Argentine Sizzling Ribeye. The table across from us had ordered it and it smelled delicious.

    The place itself was very nice, had the feeling of a very high class diner. Unfortunately even though it wasn't too crowded, the service took a long time. The food itself was decent. I think they were going for an Asian fusion modernized type, but I was not a fan of it. The karaage just tasted like fried chicken with Szechuan peppers. I like both of those things, but I was expecting Japanese karaage, so maybe that's my fault for a wrong expectation. The sushi rolls were alright, but with the price we had to pay, not worth it. I would suggest for the restaurant adding an affordable combo meal, then I probably would've been happier

    Baked Crab Rolls, +$3 if you want real crab
    Jason M.

    It's nice inside! A mix of fancy and hipster. I felt underdressed in my athleisure wear. It would be a great place for a first date or special occasion. We parked in the free lot out front. It wasn't busy on a Tuesday night. Note: They use artificial crab in the Baked Crab Rolls ($16). We had to pay $3 more for real crab. It makes me wonder what other ingredients are substituted on the menu... I liked my chicken shoyu ramen! It had a great mix of veggies and the broth was tasty and not too salty. I think they used real chicken. My wife's obon ramen was a bit too spicy for me. Service was good! Elda R took good care of us!

Crispy, flavorful, and the textures worked so well together. I would 100% order that again. The ramen, however, was just okay for me. It wasn't bad or inedible, but the broth was lacking that rich, deep flavor I look for in a good bowl of ramen. A little more depth and seasoning would really take it to the next level. The service was honestly one of the highlights. Our waiter was super friendly, cool, and attentive without hovering, which I always appreciate. Overall, there were definitely more hits than misses. The great service, fun atmosphere, and crispy tuna rice are enough for me to give Full Moon Izakaya another try. Next time, I'll be exploring more of the menu!

ALSO I had asked for a wine sample to decide which wine I wanted and our waitress said "we don't do samples". Okay well every other restaurant I've been to and worked at has samples. What a way to miss a sale. Wine was $15 a glass. Wouldn't you want that to improve your check average? These people are turning away money. So sad

We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.
