I showed my wife pictures from yesterday so we returned together today for another extraordinary meal. Think she was jealous but she didn't disclose it (yes, dear reader, she did). We started with steamed and salted edamame, perfectly prepared. Dining two straight days in a row in the same restaurant isn't something I often do. This time was great! We then ordered bluefin sashimi, salmon and yellowtail sushi, a tako (spicy octopus) salad and their beautiful seafood poke salad. What a variety of fresh fish and clean eating. Again the service was wonderful, the chefs provided expert advice and plates, and our experience was outstanding. Each bite was truly its own unique delight! What fresh great quality. Oh and for dessert: one more order of the absolute best yellowtail sashimi we've ever tasted. Couldn't resist. read more

We loved our experience here at the sushi bar. This is some of the best sushi we've had in Scottsdale apart from uchi, Nobu, and Shinbay. The staff was lovely as well. Highly recommend. read more

Not really anything you can do with today's economy and the food tastes low quality for a higher price I was disappointed when I read such high reviews... The service was underwhelming nothing bad but not anything that would make me praise it but the place was packed so maybe that was the reason. The Ambiance was the only good thing about the place. Regardless I made my choice and went to this place and didn't leave even when the wait went on longer than I was informed and still bought food and a drink even after seeing the price. To simplify the food was bland the service was blander and the Ambience at least made it a good conversation environment. read more

Really good quality sushi at fair pricing. Great service. I love the casual vibe. I highly reccomend their crispy rice tuna and the Toro roll! read more

One of our family friends recommended this sushi spot and they were spot on. The location is nothing fancy but inside the restaurant is cozy and inviting. They tend to get busy so check in on Yelp and get on the waitlist. We were seated fairly quickly and the sushi chef was able to provide his recommendations and also advise on what would be good to try according to our tastes. We had the Las Vegas Roll, Spider Roll, Lollipop and volcano as an appetizer. Out of all everything that we ordered, the Volcano and Spider Roll were the tastiest. The lollipop was wrapped in cucumber and it's an acquired taste. The Las Vegas roll was our least favorite. The fish in the rolls was fresh and didn't have any fishy aftertaste. The sushi restaurant didn't disappoint and would satisfy your craving for some delicious sushi. The only thing I'd say could change was the menu to have some sort of visual representation of what the rolls look like. read more

Decent sushi spot. Service was quick. Place is cozy and small. Nothing really wowed me here. Probably would not come again.

Date night! Our second time here and this place is still amazing! We were seated at the bar this time and we got to watch the chefs make all of the sushi. This place is always busy and rightfully so! The waitresses were attentive and the food came as it was ready. We were brave and decided to try their Wagyu sushi and it just melted in our mouths. It was such a cool experience! I wanted to try the cold soba dipping noodles. The sauce was great and the noodles didn't stick to each other so dipping them was easy. Then my boyfriend got the bento box dinner and this was so worth it! You get to choose two protein and then it comes with miso soup and a small house salad, rice and seaweed salad. To finish off the night we both got a sushi roll and they were just perfection. We can't wait to go back! read more

Hiro Sushi Salmon Roll is a small portion of salmon but a good tasting order. Caterpillar Roll this is so precise, the caterpillar has antennas and eyes, very creative and fun Spider Roll very well made with a good amount of soft shell crab, this is the real deal. Teriyaki Dinner good generous amount of teriyaki chicken (all white meat), a little lite on the Teriyaki Sauce, but a good meal Teriyaki Appetizer is a lighter version of the dinner and is by itself, no rice or condiments, good size also. Top quality ingredients, fish, sushi. A big thumbs up read more

I came here several years ago and had a very enjoyable experience. This time was different. They were slow to seat us and we waited at our table to order for ten minutes but no one came. So we left. I hope this was a fluke but it definitely was not an enjoyable experience. read more

We came after a day of hockey tournaments. We had a short wait as to be expected on a Saturday night. It was much quicker than told. Keiko was our waitress and she was wonderful from the very beginning- even giving her recommendations per my husbands request, which he ordered and loved. We had so many great things: the vegetable tempura - very fresh, the sauvy b - great, the toro - 10/10. We will definitely be back! read more

We sat at the sushi bar, which was a mistake because they were four of us and it's very difficult to talk. It was a little bit loud in there and even though we were on a 135° angle the two people on the ends really could not chat at all. Much better to get a four top table. We started with tempura battered shrimp and fried calamari. The tempura shrimp were crazy expensive I think six dollars per shrimp and they were tasty but not worth that much money. We got them at Kodo sushi (eight dollars for four shrimp -amuch better deal) the calamari were sitting in a bowl with a ponzu dipping sauce underneath. It was a very weird presentation and made the bottom calamari soggy. They should just have them on a plate with a dipping sauce on the side. The California rolls were fresh and fine nothing spectacular, the Toro rolls were strange because the Toro was all smashed up and jiggly in texture. It was not appetizing, even though it tasted fine. The crispy rice with spicy tuna on top was probably the best roll of the evening fairly classic although it might've been slightly too large a piece of crispy rice to eat comfortably in one mouthful. The Shishito peppers were very good with a nice crunchy topping and the takoyaki were creamy and flavorful. We probably won't return because we really like Kodo sushi better, much better pricing and a better atmosphere. read more

Small, packed, and no reservations, but still one of the go-to sushi spots in town We squeezed into Hiro Sushi for dinner (literally, tables are that close ). The sushi was fresh overall, though the uni wasn't quite what we hoped for. But the bluefin tuna and toro nigiri was amazing. They open at 5 PM and there's already a line by then, so go early if you don't want to wait. It's not fancy, not spacious, but if you're here for quality sushi and quick service, this spot delivers. read more

The food was beyond exceptional! It was a good sign to see people lined up before it opened. Luckily we got there ahead of time and got on the list... otherwise we would have been waiting a while! The ambiance is laid back and very chill. Nice set up... only wish they had more tables. Service was great especially with it being packed all at once! Will definitely be back!! read more

Got lucky with a spot at the bar since it can be a wait to get in. The chefs were super friendly, and the sushi itself was absolutely delicious. My friend went with the sushi dinner and I did the tuna maki, tamago nigiri, and to try something new, I added some octopus nigiri. Cool spot, there are more things on the menu that I want to try so I will definitely be back read more

Hiro Sushi - Tuna roll, tamago nigiri, octopus nigiri, and sushi dinner on the right with fresh wasabi - Japanese Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

We wanted to try something new and tried Hiro based on reviews. I'm glad we did! It was so good! Fresh and filling with plenty of options on their menu. We ate the dumplings, edamame, yellow tail and vegetable roll. The 6 pieces of vegetable roll were large portions too. The place is crowded and my guess is there will always be a wait during peak times (like weekends). But it's worth the wait! I would have loved if they had misters for their outdoor waiting area. Or a sun shade. Not sure why you are greeted by so many host/hostess when you enter, it's such a small waiting area that it feels a bit overwhelming to walk in and you're greeted by three people. However, we saw many folks doing pick up orders and it makes sense why. They have a loyal community following and it's clear why that is. Give them a try if you have not already. My guess is you will be happy you did! I was too busy eating my food to snap photos but trust me, it was delicious! read more

Super fresh sushi, great prices, and lightning-fast service! The fish was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the rolls were creative and delicious. No long waits, super friendly staff , perfect for a casual dinner. A hidden gem for sushi lovers! The edamame was a bit oily but the garlic was legit. The scallop roll was crispy delicious and the spicy crispy tuna was my favorite! read more

Hiro Sushi - Chicken Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

The food here is really good! I ordered the sushi dinner ($28) and thought it was well worth it. It came with miso soup, salad, a tuna roll, and 8 pieces of sushi. The sushi was fresh and tasted like it was good quality. We arrived a few minutes before open at 5 pm and we were seated right when it opened. If you come at 4:40 you can put your name on the waitlist early. If you come with a group larger than 2 people I recommend doing that. read more

I always really like this sushi place. It's tried and true, probably the best sushi in the valley. I've been coming here for years!

I would rate this place a 3.9 if I could. The service was great and it had a good atmosphere and vibe. I personally didn't find the food very good though. I may give it another shot down the road. read more

We came here on a recommendation from a close friend. It is probably some of the best sushi we've had in the valley. All of the sushi is fresh flown in daily and the Chef studied in Japan to hone his craft. The bluefin tune nigiri was to die for and all of the rolls were delicious and not too overpowering I would recommend making a reservation if possible or showing up right when they open at 5pm. They are a small restaurant and it can fill up fast. read more

I've been going to Hiro for quite some time (way back to 2019) and they've always been excellent. I wanted to write a review regarding service and reservations. My time on a date night with my wife is very valuable and we don't have time to sit and wait for a table for 20, 30 45 mins. Hiro doesn't take reservations, unfortunately. For that reason I unfortunately have to take my business elsewhere. For instance, Pure sushi in North Scottsdale - You can book on OpenTable. I really hope Hiro takes this feedback seriously and looks into providing some reservations on OpenTable. read more

I have went past this location for several months and then decided to stop in for lunch, and I am glad we did! Hiro Sushi is a gem for sushi lovers looking for a cozy and intimate dining experience. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere, with a nice sushi bar that allows you to watch the chefs expertly prepare each dish. The sushi itself is incredibly fresh, offering a great variety of options to suit every taste. Service was another highlight, making the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. If you're looking for a relaxed yet high-quality sushi spot, Hiro Sushi is definitely worth a visit! read more

There's no better place for sushi in Scottsdale than what Ricky and his team offer at Hiro Sushi. The place gets busy from opening till close, so at times you might be facing a wait time for up to an hour. Don't let that scare you away though, it is well worth the wait. Our favorite seating is at the sushi bar to see all the action of some of the best crafted sushi and house specials you ever eat. This is my 14 year old's favorite place after a round of golf or golf training on Wednesdays. read more

by far my favorite sushi spot in AZ. sitting at the bar let us have the best sushi chef serving us and making our rolls right in front of us. we got plum wines and let him pick his favorites off the menu for us to try. everything was a solid 10/10. its such a small lowkey spot, not too loud, and not a lot of seating which was nice because it felt intimate and Japan inspired for sure read more

There is a long line so come early or be prepared to wait. The food is always very fresh And the quality is very consistent. read more

This place is fabulous. The service is impeccable. So helpful, polite and friendly. They even made some kid friendly chopsticks for my son! The dining room is small, so be prepared for a wait if you are there at a peak time. But it is worth waiting for. The sushi is just so good. Even just the shrimp tempura roll was next level. read more

Funny story. We were in Scottsdale for the day and it was my husbands birthday. He wanted all you can eat sushi. I looked up a place on yelp with good reviews and ayce. Hiro sushi came up. We ate dinner and ordered like it was all you can eat. Thinking it was all you can eat. Chef must have thought we were writing a review because we ordered so much food. The bill came it was $284 without a tip or drinks. We laughed about it and said I hope you enjoyed your birthday dinner. Food was delicious. FYI it is not all you can eat sushi. read more

The place was definitely on the colder side, so heads up if you get chilly easily! The chefs were super friendly and made awesome recommendations based on what I like, which was a nice touch. No happy hour, FYI. The salmon nigiri was amazing--not super red, which is usually indicative of farm raised, and it just melted in my mouth. The Hotate (scallop) had a perfect hint of spice that took it to the next level. The Toro (fatty tuna) was also incredible, easily a 9/10 for me. The Negi Toro roll was more of a 7/10, but to be fair, I'm not usually big on tuna. I know, weird that I loved the Toro. One thing to know: no TVs here. So if trying to catch a game, no dice. Overall, super friendly service and great sushi--I'd definitely go back! read more

Hiro Sushi - Yellowtail collar - Japanese Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Of the 10 or so Arizona sushi restaurants I've tried in the last few years, I like Hiro Sushi the best so far. I appreciate that they offer Kizami, pickled wasabi, because it elevates everything sushi for me. It's a little spicy, tart, salty and it's the perfect condiment other than soy sauce. Where I live, most sushi restaurants don't offer crispy rice spicy tuna for some reason. But AZ and SoCal have this dish in abundance. Hiro's version was quite good. The rolls and nigiri were also tasty and the rice was well prepared. The tako wasa was very wasabi heavy, so my spouse ate the rest of my piece of nigiri for me. The fried ice cream was okay. There used to be a place at Tempe Marketplace about 15 years ago that made the best fried ice cream. They covered the ice cream in a thin layer of poundcake then battered and fried it, but unfortunately they closed a long time ago. I'm still on a search for stellar fried ice cream, but for sushi itself I'll be returning to Hiro Sushi when I get back to town. We came here on a whim on a Sunday night, but luckily they were taking walk-ins. The two of us waited 45 mins to 1 hr. We walked around the small plaza a couple times, there's not much to see, but there are outdoor picnic tables and a 3 star boba place if you need to waste some time. Highly recommend making reservations or using the online yelp waitlist if you are able to plan ahead. read more
