This place started with a food truck and I am not sure what jas chanced but im sure the owner will know. The roll was good, I had the land lober roll. I did noticed the change in the Chipotle sauce and also the soy sauce that usually had a hint or orange was not the same. To me they tasted sweet and I love them both with my rolle. The place is pretty, and clean. Music was a little loud there was no one there and at that I barely heard whne they called my name to pick up my order. I would consider giving it a second chance i just hope yo see same quality in the food as it did when they had the food truck.

Overall I was impressed with the sushi. I have tried others and typically the flavor doesn't change across the sushis but these did. The soy sauce was perfect too. Would totally recommend and will be going back to try their other items. Only con felt like their chipotle sauce needed a bit more chipotle flavored. Place was nice and clean too Customer service was also great too. Total price for 3 sushis, 2 surf n turf tacos and 1 tea less than $70

Land Lubber roll
James M.

First time at this new restaurant. The food was really good. I got the Dragon Roll which was baked so it took a little extra time. My wife is not a seafood fan so she got the Land Lubber roll. Both rolls were large, I think 12 pieces, and we ended up taking probably 8 pieces home. We really enjoyed both rolls. The Dragon Roll has a lot of flavor and just enough heat for you to feel the slight tingle. Half the people were getting the tacos and the other half we're trying the unique rolls. I look forward to trying the ceviche roll next time. Parking is a bit tight right in front of the restaurant so we parked on the residential street. Very good, we will be back.

Landlubber Roll

The food is amazing, the service was amazing, and the ambience is amazing. I honestly wish I could rate higher. I got the ceviche, the birria tacos, and the Land Lubber roll. I love my mom and her ceviche but this was the best ceviche I've ever had. I WILL be coming back.

AMAZING! I'm not a big fan of Mexican style sushi but this was sooo good. It wasn't too overwhelmingly battered, it didn't have too much rice it had the percent crisp and perfect amount of fillings. I love how it's a family owned restaurant. Their young daughter was ringing us up, their son was helping make the sushi. Very kind and helpful service. It's a very modern clean restaurant. Music was loud but not too loud, they have a self serve salsa bar which were really good! Overall we had a great experience for our first time and will go back. Btw they had a steady amount of business. It wasn't dead but it wasn't overly busy.

We've been seeing reviews about this place and how they finally opened a dine in restaurant, so we finally tried this place. It's very new and very nice inside . Love the decor and how the restaurant looks. The menu.... Doesn't look like a lot but trust me, if it was a huge menu I don't think we would ever be able to decide what to eat. My husband and I shared Quesabirria Tacos, the Three Amigos Roll and the Chipotle Roll. We want to eat more Quesabirria tacos like now, they were that good. It's does not come with consume (which you do have to pay extra for) which I wish we did. The three amigos roll, giving you chicken, beef and shrimp cucumber and fried, delicious. It taste good with the soy sauce and the guacamole from the salsa bar. Now our favorite and will get again... the chipotle roll shirmp, crab meat, cream cheese and cucumber. Sounds basic. But then they top it with chipotle cream cheese, bacon bits, eel sauce and then baked. It was so so so good. We know we want to get it again. They guys behind the line were very nice and friendly. And also was nice to know everything Is made to order cause you can see them working on our order and hearing it all drop to fry and bake. We cannot wait to go back and try the rest of the menu!

Yum! Forgot to get a picture of my food because it was so good. I got the yakimeshi rice bowl and wow their sauce is my favorite. Such unique flavors it's a must try.

See all

I have to be honest here. I only recently started trying Ramen. I don't know why, but I always told…read moremyself that I didn't like it. Anyway, this was only the second time I've ever eaten restaurant Ramen. The first time was so-so. And I was eager to see how much better it could be. So my wife started to do a little research and found that Daruma had really good reviews. So we gave it a shot. I have to say that I was very impressed with my Ramen. It was galaxy's better than the first one I tried. I can't wait to try a different one next time. Aside from the wonderful food. The staff there was really nice. They greeted us right away and quickly got us seated. Our server was also very friendly and attentive. The dining area was pretty clean and inviting too!

When I walked in, I was promptly directed to where I should go so I could place a takeout order. The genuine courtesy of the staff here was just what I needed after a long day. Lots of great options for sushi but ramen sounded amazing on a chilly winter day. I ordered a couple options and requested for the toppings to be separated so my picky eater could pick out what she didn't like. The food was out promptly and packaged with such care. Once I got it back to my daughter's hospital room, we were able to feast on the best meal we had all day. I will definitely be coming back to this place again and I am grateful for their kindness just when I needed it. Highly recommend!

Sushi Rock & Grill - Sunshine Roll

I had my first Sushi Rock & Grill experience last night and it will definitely not be my last!…read more On the hunt for something healthy for dinner, my son requested a california roll and my daughter quickly followed that request with one of her own: "a salmon roll and a cucumber roll." I did a quick search on my Yelp app and saw that SR&G was not far from their pickleball training and decided that a nigiri bento box sounded good to me too... I went online to place an order on their website and was also pleasantly surprised with the prices - it turns out that this meal would not be that much more than what I would normally spend on dinner at a nearby fast food restaurant, yet so much healthier! The ordering process was easy and allowed me to pay upon arrival. I went to pick it up about 30 minutes later and everything looked and tasted delicious. Service was friendly and everything was packed well with the condiments and chopsticks needed for our order. The restaurant itself is in a shopping center and has a casual and welcoming ambiance. As noted above, I'm sure I'll be back soon!

The sushi quality is nice and fresh, and the servers are kind and attentive. I also love that the solo fish rolls like the salmon roll or yellowtail are huge! I took off a star due to the lady with the silver chain around her neck, who was handling seating people/to go orders up front. She had an attitude towards me and other customers, and I heard her distinctly yell at one of the waitresses because she made a mistake. Not a good look for your business to have such a disgruntled worker.

We stopped into Makitto Sushi and I'm already planning my next visit--and telling everyone about…read morethis place! It is magic. We tried two rolls: The Birdgang Roll - unique, super flavorful, and had the perfect little zing. I didn't even need soy sauce, which never happens! The Fire Dragon Roll - the kick combined with the eel sauce was incredibly well balanced. So good. We also ordered sashimi and nigiri, and this is where Mikito really won me over. I don't normally eat sashimi because I usually find it too fishy, but the quality here was on another level. * Bluefin Sashimi: melt-in-your-mouth delicious. * Yellowtail Sashimi: super light and clean. * Salmon Nigiri: not fishy at all--just buttery and delightful. Everything tasted unbelievably fresh. We sat at the bar and chatted with Jay, the owner and chef, and he was fantastic. Great conversation, clearly passionate about what he does, and the service overall was friendly and prompt. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend!! If you love sushi--or even if you think you don't--give Makitto a try. It's truly a standout.

We were looking for somewhere to eat in the Mesa Riverview area and I didn't know this was back…read morethere, right next to the movie theater. Reviews are very good and so we gave it a try on a Saturday evening. When we arrived there were 2 people eating at the sushi counter, otherwise it was empty. During our time there another couple came in, so it was not busy and easy to get a table. The server was very friendly and service was great. For that I'll push my rating to 4 stars. For me, this place is personally 3.5/5. Everything was decent but nothing I would rave about. And that might just be me, because people love this place in other reviews. It was possibly just a bunch of little things that made me think it's just okay. I thought the texture of sushi rice was a bit too soft, I know it's sticky rice but I felt like it was a little over cooked and too soft. I also thought both of my rolls tasted exactly the same. Which thankfully I thought were good tasting. The stuffed jalapeños were definitely a miss, they were so under fried so mostly a mush of ingredients in a jalapeño. And initially I liked the karaage but had a couple of tough pieces, so overall that was just okay. Miso soup was solid. And I realize that the appetizers are cooked in the back and not by sushi chef, and people rave about the chef. However like I said, both rolls seemed pretty similar tasting and one was supposed to be more spicy. All very standard flavors, like I would expect from AYCE sushi. I think I'm just looking for more delicate flavors with higher quality pieces of fish. I likely should have tried some of the special items listed on the rotating items board near the sushi bar. Next time we go back I'll try sitting at the sushi bar and trying some speciality items. People have said this is the best way to enjoy this place. We will likely come back during a lunch or happy hour special, if I like it better and I can upgrade my review I'd be happy to give this small, local family run business all the stars.

Misu and Han are the real deal, and I can't remember a time I've been in to catch an NCAA basketball game that they weren't here to chop it up with me. Sit at the sushi bar for the full experience.

Saturday lunch at Yanagi somehow surpassed even my first incredible experience there…read more It was a lighter afternoon service, with Han behind the sushi bar and Misook running front of house. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles, genuine hospitality, and the kind of welcome that makes a place start feeling like home. What makes Yanagi special is that the experience becomes a conversation through the food itself. Han asked if I would trust him to make a few alterations to one of my selections, including a garlic ponzu preparation for the hamachi that was absolutely outstanding -- balanced, layered, and unforgettable. Then came a few off-menu surprises that reminded me exactly why sitting at the sushi bar matters. Thoughtful preparations, incredible fish, and the kind of attention to detail you only get from chefs who truly care about the experience they're creating. Every visit to Yanagi deepens my appreciation for what they are building there. This isn't just great sushi. It's warmth, craftsmanship, hospitality, and passion all working together in perfect harmony. One of the absolute gems of the East Valley. (I'm a picture taker. Not here. #ItsThatGood)
