    Went with my dad for a belated birthday dinner, he really enjoyed the Vegas roll and banzai roll. Will be back again , great service and great kitchen.

    The restaurant is in a beautiful plaza, however compared to the plaza seemed a little outdated and small. The bathroom was really cool with rocks and plants. We all got bento boxes to try a little bit of everything, but the sushi just wasn't that impressive, maybe I need to go back and try more. Also highly recommend the mochi ice cream but I didn't get a picture.

    We absolutely love Ginza. Quiet and delicious. We enjoyed everything we ate there. The best part is our server Jacob. He has excellent customer service and he is very attentive. Such a rare thing to have that someone who is as kind as he is. This is our go to sushi spot!

    I recently came here for sushi and I ordered an off menu custom sushi roll called the Asama roll. It's actually tempura fried. The atmosphere is very nice and cozy. Kind of a modern Japanese restaurant. The service was good and the food was also exceptional. I'd recommend this place for some great sushi.

    Best quality sushi in Tucson! Honestly I was losing hope on finding a quality Japanese restaurant in Tucson but came here based off a friend's recommendation and was pleasantly surprised! I was shocked how busy this place was on a Thursday night - luckily there were a few seats open at the bar- otherwise we would've had to wait almost 30 minutes! It's a great place for a group, family , date or solo eating. The chirashi bowl had great quality fish and was overall delicious. I enjoyed my lychee martini as well! The sushi boats looked amazing and I definitely want to try next time. I gotta say the prices are pretty steep compared to other sushi spots and similar dishes in other cities, but I haven't found quality that matches this in the area so it's worth it.

    We came here because our favorite spot was closed for the week- it was bustling but we were seated right away and the server was very attentive. My companion appreciated a high-quality ginger beer while I stuck with water. We got seaweed salad and a few pieces of sushi and both were delicious. The restrooms were also oddly lovely with piles of river rocks in the corners giving a serene feel to the place. I was a bit stunned though by the cost (and before you tell me that good sushi HAS to be expensive- I have to politely disagree). I would definitely come again, but would stick to a snack rather than satisfying a fully empty belly.

    Absolute great find! Our first time here, we were wondering if we should make a reservation, but we didn't get a chance to...we walked in before 6 pm. We were just lucky to get seated right away. Love the accommodation. Our server was very friendly; since he knew it was our first time, he took his time to give us a little briefing on their menu. It is a small place and they can get really busy, so I would recommend making a reservation. I love the fact that the sushi chefs are Japanese, which makes this place authentic. And we loved everything we had. No complaints here. I love the location, although it was quite a drive for us. This is now one of my favorite Japanese restaurants!

    The service and ambiance here is divine! We thoroughly enjoyed our collection of Special rolls! This is the perfect date night spot, with the prices being right around what we expected for a fancier sushi restaurant. The salmon toro was also delicious! Can't wait to come back!

    We were staying up the hill at the Loews Ventana resort and did not want to drive anywhere so we took their shuttle and chose Ginza out of all the hotel recommendations. We called ahead and they did not have reservations but were told we would be able to get a table if we arrived soon after opening. When we arrived there were only a few spots open at the Sushi bar and no tables. Packed full house within an hour after they opened and we quickly understood why. Everything we ordered was really good! I got the ramen, best I have had in a good while. Service, cleanliness and vibes all on point!

    Mango roll & Rainbow Roll (w/ real crab to make it gluten free). Back plate- salmon and yellowtail nigiri and spicy salmon roll
    Emily R.

    Ginza is always the sushi restaurant I suggest when anyone asks for delicious sushi! But it had been a couple years since I had visited and I forgot how incredibly delicious everything is! To start, their miso soup is gluten free and so flavorful and delicious! Their staff is very knowledgeable about what is gluten free and what can be made gluten free. And there are SO many options! They are able to swap real crab instead of the fake crab to make rolls gluten free. Everything as beyond delicious, the staff was so helpful and friendly and the ambiance is pretty and calm. We went early (5:00), no wait. But it was full by 5:30. Can't wait to go back soon!

    I have been to several sushi locations in Tucson and have this to be one of the best. Service was excellent. It's very busy and would suggest reservations. Good was phenomenal.

    Prices. Slightly higher on some things, but not crazy.
    Stephan G.

    Outstanding food quality but lackluster service. We had dirty plates in front of us and seldom water refills. Saturday night, 7pm ish. We were offered a seat on the patio, but the heater wouldn't work so they moved us to the sushi bar. They were friendly and accommodating for that process. We didn't have to wait long, even though the restaurant was pretty full. The prices were on par with, or just slightly higher than pretty much any higher end sushi bar. The Omakase sashimi for $105 was delicious. It had lots of very fresh and unique options in there. I would say this is definitely a place to come for the nigiri or the sashimi rather than the rolls. This place leans more towards authentic side for sure. A hamachi hand roll for $9 is a little expensive, but it was soo delicious, so there is decent value there. Miso soup for $4 is way steep. Most traditional sushi bars will just give it to you. I just wish the service was a little more attentive. My wife was angry that she had dirty plates in front of her. When in Tucson again, we will probably try this one again.

    Food was exceptional and fresh! Even though it was busy we received incredible and fast service. Highly recommend the bbq black cod

It's not going to be the best you ever had in your life, and if you've been to Southern China, you're not going to be blown away. HOWEVER, it is the homemade taste that makes it good. It doesn't feel like any other restaurant, it feels like you are at somebody's house. Here's the thing, I came in expecting the usual Chinese food affair, but I left genuinely surprised and impressed. This restaurants specializes in Southern Chinese food, which is different from other regions. I am so happy this restaurant and its chains helps the cuisine gain exposure and adds depth to Chinese food in general. Even better, the menu is laid out in a way that it is easy to understand: gluten-free options, allergies, and spice level. The service was great. All though it isn't a "full" sit-down restaurant, everybody there seemed to know the menu well and was happy to be there. As a Cantonese person, it was nice hearing my language being spoken in the kitchen. The restaurant itself was immaculately clean and very modern. We came during early dinner time so the parking lot was near empty and easy to park. Overall, if you've never had Southern Chinese food or are looking for something more authentic than classic Chinese takeaway, definitely check out this location. The cherry on top are the big portion sizes and the price.

    My wife and I dined there for a late lunch earlier this week. We have eaten here numerous times…read morebefore, and liked it, but it was just okay. If we were giving it a grade, it would rate at a, "B" (*good in effort and the results... but not amazing or anything to sit down and write a yelp review about). But this time, I really-really enjoyed the experience. So much so, that I am now typing out a review. My hope is that someone else (*that would be you) might have a similar experience up at RA Sushi. For us, the stars aligned (as they sometimes do) and all parts of the meal converged to create an almost-perfectly assembled puzzle of culinary pleasure. The staff was welcoming and charming. As we pulled open the large entrance door, the hostess greeted us with a warm and welcoming smile. Our waiter was observant (but not overly so) and checked on us periodically to see how we were faring. He made suggestions and engages with a really good demeanor that some people just seem to have that makes them immediately likable. The ambiance was comfortable and pleasant. We were there towards the end of the lunch service, so tables were starting to clear. And most importantly, the food was exceptionally tasty. My wife and I apparently were mind-melding as we looked over the menu, for when the waiter returned to our table to take our order we both had decided on the same bento box...the one with steak, sashimi, a fresh salad, and an assortment of vegetables and shrimp tempura. I enjoyed all parts of the compartmentalized presentation, but the "stand out" for the box was, by far, the sashimi. I say the following with all-honestly: Those sliced bits of fish were as fresh and succulent as any that I have ever had. I am originally from Hawaii (where sashimi is a big part of local cuisine) and we visited Japan a few years ago and enjoyed sashimi from fish that was just-pulled from the sea. I am a little perplexed as to how, here in land-locked, Tucson that fish was so incredibly fresh. But somehow, it was and each chew that I clumsily chop-sticked into my face was savored and deeply enjoyed. Up at the start of this review, I described the experience as "almost perfect"--hinting that something was not exactly right... The minor speed- bump for the meal occurred when I took my first tentative nibble of the steak. It was "sizzley-hot" upon touching down on our table, so I took a small teeth-only-to-protect-my-lips-from-getting-burned bite. The first chew of meat that I took had a small wedge of cartilage or gristle. As it turns out, that was the only piece of the entire assembly of small bits of steak that was imperfect. That may be a pretty-good metaphor for the experience that we had at RA on that Thursday afternoon, in early July, in the year of our Lord 2026. We began the meal knowing that it was going to be pretty good (*based on past experience), but didn't expect a "stand out" lunch. Similarly, the first bite of steak was flavorful, but not fantastic. But, then to our pleasant surprise, the meal really found it's stride and came together to become memorable. (Eh, maybe that was not that great of a metaphor for the experience--but you get the idea). My wife (who is not as easily impressed as I am), agreed that it was really-really good. Further evidence of her really liking the meal came when I over-heard her tell my daughter, on the phone, later that evening, that we all really need to go back, the next time she comes to visit us in Tucson.

It may have been seared in something like chimichurri, but whatever was on it completely overpowered the tuna. Instead of highlighting the fish, it dominated every bite. It honestly could have used some kind of palate cleanser alongside it. For mains, we ordered three different steaks, and surprisingly, all of them lacked flavor. That was the biggest letdown, especially after such a heavily seasoned appetizer. You expect a steakhouse to get that part right. The lobster was just okay. Nothing offensive, but nothing memorable either. Overall, the meal felt unbalanced. Either over-seasoned or under-seasoned, with nothing really standing out in a good way. Wouldn't recommend based this experience.
