We tried Joyce's for lunch and it was a decadent experience. Excellent selection of hot appetizers and entrees which we did not get a chance to try because we were in it for the sushi this time around. We had a variety of nigiri - the standouts were the uni, the chu-toro, and the mackerel. Dragon roll was also good. Sake selection was surprisingly great, although being lunch we didn't partake. Give this place a shot! You won't be disappointed. read more

I am not a sushi eater, for medical reasons, but my sweetheart is, so we appreciate sushi restaurants which can cater to us both, and Joyce's Sushi matched our needs and then some. We walked in at 1:00 and were promptly seated, even as the place had a full house of lunch eaters, some in booths, some at tables, a few at the sushi bar. This might be @ regular thing, as the staffing was at a high level, including four sushi chefs, in an oval "kitchen", surrounded by the other booths and tables. Not too noisy, even with 4 tv's on different channels. The menu is extensive and requires a few minutes to absorb, but we were not hurried. My sweetie ordered her favorites, miso soup, edamame, hamachi and a spicy tuna roll. All were excellent and fresh tasting, and the miso was different than what we have had before, including more mushrooms, but it disappeared into our mouths quickly. I ordered a lunch special, which included rice, miso soup, and a bento box of salad, chicken teriyaki and some of the best tempura I have ever eaten, one large shrimp piece and four vegetables. There was so much that we needed a take out box and a half. We will be back for lunch for sure. Parking depends on the time, as it is in a Gelson-anchored center, with several other stores, businesses, a barber shop and a bank. We did not use it, but they also have a full bar. I should mention that, for a positive review, one can claim a free ice cream, probably the green tea variety, but we did not avail ourselves of that offer. Don't want to be accused of (smile) accepting a bribe read more

My lunch today at Joyce's was quite enjoyable. The Yellowtail Sushi was delivered by their very busy robot. It was succulent, fresh, and flavorful. The Lunch Special Bento Box was quite wonderful with a huge Shishito pepper perfectly fried and Large slices of sweet potato. The Spicy Tuna Roll was excellent. I like the floating overhead light fixtures suspended above your head in an aquatic ballet. The service was quick, friendly, and Efficient. read more

The sushi was delicious. I really enjoy the serving robot bringing us our easy to serve sushi orders. It's a good family owned spot.

The overall experience was good. I used to come here when it was Midori...it has lost some of what made Midori so good...if you like machines making the rice and setting up rice on nori it is good good...the rolls fall apart and so does the sushi sushi...the rice does not have the flavor. Really sushi should be made by hand not machines. Sorry to see. read more

The lunch special is great nice size food very tasty and good price we highly recommend

Dragon roll and firecracker roll were delicious! Miso soup was the best! Shanti our server was amazing ! Thank you . read more

This was our 2nd time this week while on vacation. The food is freaking amazing, they promote fresh food, and the quality truly shows. Both times we were served by Shanti. She's outstanding; amazing customer service. This is a must eat place. I would give this place 10 stars if I could read more

We arrived , New Year's Eve, at 3:30 pm and the restaurant was about 30% full. Our order was taken and drinks arrived promptly. Then, it was crickets for a long while. Food arrived about 40 minutes later. My husband's teriyaki chicken was cold, not lukewarm, not room temperature, but as though it sat it the fridge overnight. We waited and waited for someone to come. Finally, I went to the "take out" counter and the gentleman said he was the only one serving. We've visited Joyce's for over 15 years and this was terrible! We weren't the only ones. read more

Great food and service. Our server Shanty was sweet. The sushi is fresh and well prepared. Highly recommended.

Very good our go to place in the desert never disappointed Processes a little high price a little high read more

Ice tea was weak, see through for $5.00. The 2nd refill was normal color tasting. We were able party of 3, two of us received our lunch, the third did not. We waited, we waited, one waitress asked, manager asked, finally it came 20+ mins after ours. No discount, not much of an apology except that hers had to be cooked It was a nice lunch but, I know the rents there are extremely high. If you want customers to come back, especially locals, you'll need to do better. read more

Accommodated our large family group of 10 right away. Food came quickly and everything was delicious! Highly recommend the Spanish roll if you like lemon. Very friendly. We come back every year! read more

Great sushi rolls, prompt service, fresh food, creative menu. The prices have continued to rise, but if you're in the mood for sushi then this is the spot in Rancho Mirage for sure! read more

Fresh sushi, large portions, and good price. Will come back again when visiting the area!

Staying at the Westin I noticed Joyce's Sushi was on their preferred list of off site restaurants. Scheduled a work dinner and Joyce did not disappoint. Fresh sushi, exceptional service from Miles and the team, and even though they were busy they never made me feel rushed or forgotten. If you're visiting Palm Desert and craving high quality sushi Joyce's is the spot! read more

Hands down the best sushi I've had in the desert. Everything tastes super fresh, the rolls are actually flavorful (not bland like a lot of places out here), and the portions are really good. The fish melts in your mouth, the rice is perfect, and every roll has its own vibe instead of all tasting the same, Eddie had amazing service would definitely come back! read more

Went on 12-27-2024. What a great experience. Went to this location years ago when it was another Japanese/Sushi restaurant. Had the dinner combo and sushi . Sure like the M6:33 on the menu . Notice the inside of the Sushi menu. Great for kids to color. Todd R. read more

Joyce's Sushi completely surprised me. The fish is so fresh it literally melts like butter, and every piece tastes thoughtfully prepared. Smooth texture, perfect cuts, and flavors that don't need anything extra. If you love real quality sushi, this place is a gem. read more

The fish itself is all right. The sushi rice could be better, it didn't have the right texture/flavor. We had also ordered the uni and the seaweed wrap it came in was very soft, like it had been left out overnight. Overall they start with decent ingredients but fall through on execution. I'd stick to rolls or just sashimi. read more

Tasty sushi and really delicious ramen. Restaurant has a nice ambiance and staff were friendly and relatively attentive

Terrible service, waiter got the order wrong. Terrible food, quality and taste. For the price, it should be outstanding.

This place was just okay. We spent $146 for 3 rolls, 8 pieces of sushi and a bowl of ramen... the fish was fresh, but that's the only thing they really had going for the food. The ramen lacked depth in the flavor, the egg was just a hard boiled egg not marinated like you would expect. On all 3 rolls we got the rice was falling apart which made it extremely difficult to pick the rolls up. I would rather eat gas station sushi than go to this place again... read more

The food was excellent. The udon soup was huge great servings and delicious. And the waitresses and staff were very friendly. And the little robot server too! read more

The sushi was not up to par. The spring mix salad was difficult to eat with chopsticks. The California roll did not resemble I've ever had and neither did the spicy tuna roll. read more

Joyce's Sushi - Yellowtail salsa, yummy - Caterers Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

We have been going here for YEARS, however since the ownership changed the service is non existent and not friendly. We are so disappointed as this was a place we went weekly. The prices have also gone up. We would pay the prices, but not when we have to ask for service. This is very sad. read more

Scott was amazing, great sushi, nice atmosphere. Recommend the sashimi, and the good selection of sake read more

Excellent sushi quick service quick preparation a little bit of a language barrier, but that's to be expected at a Japanese sushi bar. The restaurant was very clean. Lots of staff will definitely return. read more
