New place for me and my ride or die. Came here with my family and I'm not a sushi fan but I did the teriyaki chicken that was the bomb. The sauce is very good and you get quite a bit of chicken and rice and for what little money they charge for it, I was a fan. Very tasty. The fusion music was actually pretty nice to listen to as well. Would come back for sure.

We absolutely loved the atmosphere here -- it's clean, cozy, and has a really nice vibe. It feels a little more upscale and makes for a great place to sit and relax. We ordered five different rolls to try a good variety. Unfortunately, only one of them really stood out. The others were pretty bland and didn't have much flavor or anything especially unique. They weren't bad, just not very memorable. It honestly feels like you're paying more for the ambiance than for bold, standout sushi. I might come back for the atmosphere, but I do wish the flavors matched the setting a bit more.

Arizona roll

This place is super cute on the inside, cute for a date night or girls night. We were seated and unfortunately it took almost 10 minutes to be acknowledged and that was only because we stopped someone and asked who our server would be. The person we stopped decided that she would be our server. She seemed to be new, so she had someone training her with her as well. Once we got our food and drinks ordered they came out quick. I got the Arizona roll. It was actually really good, but the only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that they put lemon slices, including the brine, in the roll. Next time I would order it without that. Overall they have a ton of sushi options on here. This is an interesting concept being that there are traditional rolls and Mexican rolls as well. I'm sure there's something here for everyone.

Such a cool restaurant! Great ambiance with good service and amazing food! The Gueritos were my favorite but everything was so good! So much flavor and good sized portions. You won't be disappointed.

Went on a Wednesday night and there was a good amount of people in the restaurant, which gave it a nice, lively atmosphere. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was fast. Our food came out in about 15 minutes after we were seated, which was pretty quick considering how busy it was. Overall, the experience was smooth, and everything from seating to getting our meals felt well organized.

Updating my review! I had dine in for the first time today! I really liked the atmosphere, it's moody, kinda dark, and gives a nice ambiance. The service was great! We came in fairly late, and close to the closing time. (It's my birthday today, and I had a full day with work and class, so I wasn't free until after 9pm.) For it being so late, and with the kitchen closing soon, it was terrific! The rolls were ok, I feel like they tasted better the last time we had tried this place. Our favorite was the carne asada. The dragon roll was nothing special, I always love eel, but it was not the best. The Mexican roll was okay. The crunchy roll is good. The drink was delicious! It was so sweet and refreshing. I'm so glad our waiter recommended it! Our total came out to $118. It did not feel like it was worth the price, but the vibes were there. Overall, it was a decent experience, and I would definitely come back. I would like to try it at a different time of day next time and see if anything is better.

I loved the one in Tempe so I had to try this location! The ambiance is very nice mixture of Mexican and Japanese decor. So beautiful. The food was good. Drinks were yummy I especially liked my Mezcamaica drink! Loved. They did for get things and also put cream cheese in a roll we asked for without.. it was a busy night. Friday night - typical , the employees seemed frantic.. we had to wait 15 minutes to close out. Tempe location is preferred for service!

Sushi

Just amazing! Mexican spin on traditional classics. Everything was so yummy. I can't remember which is which since I ordered several different rolls

Edamame, Viva Las Vegas and Veggie Roll
Mary M.

Lots of options here for alcohol and sushi, and loved the fried choices! Service was very good. Evening Happy hour prices would've been better on a Monday night, but the food was still pretty good!

One of my managers recommended this sushi restaurant, so I took them to dinner here. It's a pretty huge restaurant with a variety of sushi choices. I don't remember what my team members ordered, but I had the following. Food: Shrimp Tempura -6 Pieces Crunchy Roll Fried Gyoza The food was good. Nothing really stood out to be different from other sushi restaurants other than the decor. I also had 2 Crown on the rocks. HH menu is good, and I need to try other rolls. I'll stop by again when I'm in town.

Spicy Mango Rolls
Devan M.

One is my favorites in the west valley! The spicy mango roll is a must! I was never a fan of sushi with fruit until I tried this roll. Is honestly that good. The cordon bleu roll and the tropical tuna roll are also a must for me here too!

Healthy dining

With astonishing diversity, Kabuki provides a sure crowd-gratifying experience of Japanese-fusion…read more The menu is considerate of classic and innovative rolls, as well as the legitimate vegetarian, gluten-free and awarding kids ones- something to all. Their happy hour is a good price, cocktail is well made and their service is always friendly at their numerous outlets. There is also a small disadvantage of chain energy; although it is polished, it may not be as intimate as a smaller and chef-driven place. The size is good in terms of quality, though, you will not be amazed by innovation. A secure, gratifying option to the groups, families or those who want to eat sushi solely predictably.

We went before a concert. It was a 45 minute wait which is totally understandable. However,…read morebased on the service from checking in with the host to the server to the food, it's clear the wait is so long because they are very dysfunctional. The food came out luke warm and they never brought out my California Rolls until I asked and it was blamed on the chef. My drink was never refilled until I was finished eating. I rarely ever saw the server to even ask. At the end, the manager came around and said she heard I wanted to talk to her and I never asked for a manager. It seems they can't even send a manager to the right table and I'm sure whoever did ask for a manager is even more frustrated. Also, major warning: if you are prone to vertigo, DO NOT go in the women's restroom. Nothing in the room is straight. I wish someone would have warned me because I came out dizzy and nauseous. Not sure I'll return to this location, but might give the Tempe location a try.

You can really tell they take pride in the quality of their ingredients. What made the experience even better was the service. Ken took great care of us the entire time super friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and gave excellent service! He made the whole meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. Between the amazing sushi and top-notch service, this place is definitely one I'll be coming back to. Highly recommend!

I have been a Yama Sushi fan for some time and just hadn't had the opportunity to write a review…read more My Yama Sushi journey first began at the Phoenix location. I really enjoy the ambiance and service there, but learned quickly that with larger groups the Peoria location is best for us. One of my kids graduated from college last week and he wanted to celebrate. All he wanted was to have sushi and to celebrate with our relatives who came from out of state. We didn't know if it'd be doable since we were on the other side of the valley. We called, gave them our party size (12) and eta. Low and behold, they were able to get us a reservation. We get on the road to make it to our reservation 0745-0800, they close at 1000pm worse case scenario we get there by 0800 and we still have a good amount of time for the AYCE 90 minute experience. We get there and they have a sign out for the AYCE, last call 0830pm. We go inquire about the last call and our reservation being at 0745. They reassure us that we would still get the full 90 minute experience. At about 0800pm they tell us our table they thought would be available is not available, they say individual parties instead. A guy comes out and tells us that the time frame they gave us was an estimated time, we let him know that was not what were told, but we also got a text confirmation. He tells us, well the Weather is nice. We can accommodate you outside. We agreed. They got the tables all settled and we're about to sit down. The same older man tells us, that the last call is 0830PM, ummm what? They tell us well we can try and get everything in, but the last call is at 0830. You can stay until 0900, what?! I let him know that was not what there hostess had told us, we told him they said we'd still be served and given the 90 Minute experience. He said well I don't know why they told you that, I am going to have to go let them know that is not the case. It's now well past 0800pm and restaurants are closing soon and we are a large party. I was incredibly disappointed at how everything was handled, and how easy it was for the gentleman to just dismiss and shrug his shoulders like oh well. I was incredibly disappointed at how everything was handled, and how easy it was for the gentleman to just dismiss and shrug his shoulders like oh well. What was supposed to be a special celebration for our son's graduation turned into unnecessary stress and disappointment. We made the reservation based on the information their staff provided and planned accordingly, only to be told something completely different once we arrived. Had we been told upfront that they couldn't honor the full AYCE experience or accommodate our party as promised, we would have made other arrangements. After being loyal customers and recommending this place to family and friends, this experience made it clear that customer service and honoring commitments are not a priority. Unfortunately, that was our last visit For reference, when they sent the last text, we were already onsite.

The service was quick and friendly. I ordered Miso Soup ($2.00), which was warm and served as a nice palette cleanser. Baked Mussels ($8.25), loaded with spicy mayo, masago, green onions, and eel sauce. Probably my favorite dish of the night. Vegas Roll ($10.25) is your typical deep fried roll. My partner ordered the Rock n Roll Baked roll ($12.95). We did have to ask for soy sauce and wasabi, as those were not provided. Overall, the food was delicious, I would revisit and recommend.

The sushi was okay: tasted fresh, solid portions, and made to order (they did have piles of…read moreCalifornia rolls pre-made sitting on the counter). The restaurant wasn't that busy for the lunch rush, and the waitress was very attentive and helpful. The only downsides I experienced was that there was no hot water running in the bathroom that I could tell, and no paper towels were available to dry my hands or open the bathroom door with. I also had a small fly hovering around me while I ate (I was inside). Thinking about this experience a little deeper however (after the bill) changed things for me a bit. Was the food okay? Yes, I think... Was it noteworthy? Not really. The stacks of premade rolls sitting on the counter made me think twice about ever eating here again. I paid around $45 for lunch after tax and tip. I ordered 6 pieces of nigiri, a tempura roll, a small bowl of miso soup, and an iced tea. I don't consider this anything crazy or over the top. Given this price point I expect hot water and paper towels in the bathrooms, especially if employees who are handling our food use those facilities. 1-star, won't be back... oh, and the soy sauce bottle was literally stuck to the counter. I had to pry it off.
