    Came here last week after Coachella with a party of 10. The service did not disappoint! Our server Brandy was amazing! She handled everything incredibly well from the start. She was patient, organized, and kept a great attitude the entire time, even with all of our requests and the chaos that naturally comes with a large group. So huge shoutout to her for making it such a great experience The food was amazing. We ordered a good mix of appetizers, rolls, bento boxes, and the huge 30pc sashimi combo. Everything came out quickly and they did not miss on the flavor! Everything was seasoned perfectly, the fish was incredibly fresh, beautiful presentation, and the overall quality was just top tier!

    If you're in the Coachella Valley and craving sushi, Joyce's Sushi is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, casual, and welcoming--perfect for anything from a relaxed lunch to a fun dinner with friends. The staff is consistently friendly and attentive, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The real highlight, though, is the food. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, from the sashimi to the specialty rolls. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their fish. The rolls are creative without being over-the-top, and the portions are generous. Whether you're sticking with classics or trying something new, it's hard to go wrong. What really makes Joyce's Sushi stand out is the balance--it delivers great quality, great service, and a great vibe without feeling overly fancy or overpriced. It's the kind of spot you find yourself coming back to again and again. Overall, Joyce's Sushi is a reliable favorite in Rancho Mirage that consistently delivers a delicious and enjoyable dining experience.

    What a fun spot! The energy and service in here was great and it was packed! We sat at the sushi bar and getting to see our rolls made was an extra special treat. The sushi chefs are a great team and are great at what they do. We got an array of treats and every dish we had was delicious. I want to try everything on the menu and am looking forward to coming back again. Okay thanks bye!

    I'm confused by such high reviews for this place.... Maybe they are known for the tuna cutting show or it speaks to how bad the rest of the sushi places generally are in the area? It's not bad but nothing special with decent fish and rolls that were oddly served in bowls. Nothing tasted bad but nothing was that great but pricing seemed kinda high for what it was. They charged me dinner special prices at 2:30pm cuz they said lunch menu ends at 2pm but it didn't say that on the menu...

    Jumbo Spider Roll
    Anthony L.

    I came with my business associate and we came to Joyce Sushi for dinner. The service is excellent, the staff is very accommodating, and very professional. The food is 5 star. They use quality fish and the portion of the Jumbo Spider Roll is huge! We got a bottle of Sapporo and Hot sake. If you are ever in the area come visit Joyce Sushi. You won't be disappointed

    Dinner special with katsu and spicy tuna
    Ken C.

    Overpriced I guess you should expect to pay more when eating out in a touristy area like Palm Springs. The food here is slightly above average. Their sushi is solid. Their udon and miso soup was a tad too salty. The katsu and shrimp tempura was not bad actually. However, given the prices, I was expecting more. For example, the chirashi bowl was $45 and probably just enough food for one person.

    15 Piece Sashimi - massive portions
    Patti D.

    We came here for dinner and had a great experience overall. I ordered the dinner special, which lets you choose 2 items for $25 or 3 items for $30 (some items have about a $5 upcharge). The special also comes with white rice, soup and salad, which made it an even better deal. I chose the pork katsu and a spicy salmon roll. The pork katsu came with two nicely sized cutlets that were moist and well cooked -- definitely a solid value for the price. Overall, my meal felt like a great deal. My husband ordered the 15-piece sashimi platter. It was on the pricier side at $60, but the portions were massive and very generous. He really enjoyed it and felt it was worth it given the quality and quantity. His meal also came with soup and salad. The soup was a mushroom miso -- a little on the salty side, but still tasty. The salad was a pleasant surprise: fresh mixed greens instead of the usual iceberg lettuce you often see at Japanese restaurants. It was served with a light Italian dressing, which felt a bit unexpected for a Japanese place, but it actually worked and tasted very good. Service was good, the restaurant was clean, and it's located in a strip mall with plenty of parking, which is always convenient. We'd definitely come back, especially for the dinner specials.

    Joyce's Sushi is a terrific place for a Japanese meal. They have a variety of offerings to please any craving. Fresh sashimi, tasty tempura, flavorful udon and many other dishes. The servers are always on it. They get busy, but the servers are on their game making sure everyone is attended to and their meal is served promptly and with great care. The Japanese sushi bar decor is very cozy and creates an intimate dining experience. Stop in and you'll add Joyce's Sushi to your favorites.

    Joys 15 piece sashimi! Yummmm!!!

    Service was great! Sashimi was so fresh! I recommend the salmon and toro! Also recommend the firecracker roll! And the waiters were very attentive!

    It really should be a 4 1/2 for this. Actually yelps should have half stars on their rating system. That's a discussion for another day. My friend had the dinner special with pork and rice and salad and enjoyed it. He says it's a four star. The service was fast. I had the fresh king salmon tuna albacore roll and the freshwater eel roll. My only complaint is that there was not enough sauce for either one. The miso soup was tasty. Didn't need the mushrooms. We were seated quickly and served quickly. The staff certainly gets their steps in.

    I always go to this place for early dinner Today I brought a friend with a legal certified with certificate service dog And I was denied entry by this Gentelman This is against California law and the fine is at least $4000 which im planing to collect the attorney I hired told me that there is a good chance the Resturant will be closed That is so unkind to do and I'm not going to go or recommend this restaurant who discriminates people because of their limitation Thank you. And have a good sushi elsewhere

    Dinner Special

    The three of us ordered Sashimi Salad, Mixed Tempura, the Dinner Special, which had tempura, chicken teriyaki California roll (photo), and miso soup, delivered expertly by our lovely server, Brandy. Everything was perfect. Can't say anything more than that.

    Fresh king roll
    Danielle M.

    Was looking for a new local sushi spot because our old favorite has been a little disappointing the last few times, and yelp reviews convinced us to try Joyce's, and I'm glad we did! Place is bigger than expected and busy, almost every table was taken. The sushi is extremely fresh and has so much, and very little rice. Definitely feels like you are getting your moneys worth. The spicy salmon crunch roll was especially delicious, and the cucumber salad was fresh and yummy! The service is a little chaotic, it seems like all the wait staff help all the tables so it's a little unorganized, but everyone is very kind and helpful, but don't be surprised if your food comes in a weird order, or you have to ask for a water refill twice. If you want a no frills DELICIOUS sushi spot, I'd recommend!

Lively, diverse, energized full of bright faces that bring light to the dimly lit space. Service was stellar - attentive, on it, anticipated needs/preferences before they were even addressed. A quick anecdote, the waitress made PROACTIVE decisions knowing I am Vegan, not just reactive - a rare thing outside of high dining restaurant. Red wine flight included a fantastic Cab & Cab Reserve, and a "very good" Pinot...and that's coming from a person who does not drink Pinot. I didn't care for the blend but then again I never care for a blend as it is. Food was "American" style tapas - small plates of well crafted foods ranging from flatbread pizza to meatballs to vege pockets and (for me) a "Vegan Stack" composed of rice, mango, avocado, and a delicious spicy mayo. Tiramisu dessert disappeared in all of 20 seconds, well plated and beautifully crafted.

It clearly caters to a sophisticated crowd--very similar in vibe to their Calabasas location. While parking is accessible in the rear, it can get congested during peak season. The menu is extensive with plenty of excellent selections, though the pricing is definitely premium. For instance, a Cobb salad topped with fish can easily exceed $45; while the quality is high, that's a significant jump over nearby staples like Daily Grill. Service was friendly but lacked consistency; our server disappeared mid-meal without a hand-off, requiring us to flag down other staff. Overall, it's a bright, airy, and stylish spot well worth a visit, provided you're prepared for the 'luxury' price point.
