    spicy salmon roll, Salmon Lovers, Mango
    Maya J.

    great prices, good fish, and cute interior. It looks like all of their rolls are continually marked down 50%, which is probably a marketing tactic but the resulting price is totally worth it. I think we paid $28 for the three rolls we got. The salmon lovers was SO good with the little lemon slice, the mango one was a little too overwhelmingly mango as I wasn't expecting the mango piece to be that big. Only issue was that it took a very long time to get the food, but that might be attributed to how popular this spot is getting! (and also it was valentine's day when I went )

    Takeout: Salmon combo
    Francheska J.

    SUCH a good deal!!! The salmon combo comes with 5 (HUGE pieces of) salmon nigiri, and I opted for the salmon roll (also packed to the brim with salmon!). The salmon quality is spectacular, its juicy and fresh, with no fishy taste- all for an amazing price. My pick-up order was ready in 10-15 minutes, and they were so nice and let us sit at one of the tables during the dinner rush while we waited. The vibes in the restaurant seemed lively, yet cozy and familiar. I definitely am looking forward to coming back and dining at the restaurant, but sushi to-go from here is too good!! I'm drooling looking at my own picture, and I literally Just ate it.

    Still my go to for sushi to go! Order online for 50% off rolls! Food is often ready before the pick up time.

    Love the sushi: texture, taste profile, clean cut, fresh and made to order just how you want it! Quality is kept in tact, whilst beating competition with their pricing! PERFECT spot to visit for ANY occasion! Can't wait for a larger location! DELICIOUS, can't rave enough and the ambience is so relaxed. Can't wait to dine in again and again, I'm a loyal 'regular!' Picture was sub par, sorry- I was too busy devouring my scrumptious role & hot sake bombs!

    Waiting outside to be seated

    Place is small, I went based on reviews. It was packed had a college kid vibe. We had to wait to be seated but there was no place to wait so we stood outside. Appetizers are small in size. 5 small tempura shrimp pieces. They were good. Could've had more flavor. Musubi was one piece. It was tasty. A lil sweet. Wish it was 2 pieces so it could be shared as an appetizer. Son had beef udon noodles. He enjoyed the dish. Great serving size not too little or too much. BF had the 12 piece sashimi he enjoyed very much. I had the Phoenix rising roll. It was good, little spicy. I will probably try something else next time. Service was not great. Never had our water filled. We felt a little rushed when ordering.

    The manager on site today was extra attentive. Stopped by during busy lunch rush hour and king Salmon delivered again. This sushi spot is a go to for anyone in the vicinity. Prices are reasonable and food is always delicious. Vibes are energetic and Asian decor helps complete the experience. Can't wait to be back again.

    A quiet spot ideal for a quick lunch. Super fresh raw salmon every single time I've been here. Friendly and efficient service. Super chilled lounge and jazz playing in the background.

    Cute spot! Nice place to steal away for an out of office lunch with your work BFF. I can also imagine that it's a vibe at night too. It gave funky hole in the wall vibes. I carried out my order. The wait staff was pleasant and hospitable answering all of my first timer questions with patience and a smile. The rolls were delicious neat and well dressed. Even my husband was impressed. My veggie tempura was hot and delicious. I would come back next time I visit AZ.

    Came by for dinner on a Monday night. Pretty busy as only a few tables were left. Menu had plenty options to choose from. Decided on a few appetizers, several nigiri, and the Thomas roll. Our orders came out quickly and left me impressed. My favorites were the seared nigiri and the Thomas. If you're looking for a good quick meal and great service, give this place a try.

    Spicy geisha roll
    Lina L.

    After an appointment yelped for a sushi restaurant close by and saw the 4.7 rating so had very high hopes. As always, I started off with miso soup which was very flavorful but salty. All the rolls are 50 percent off but for example, regular price for a spicy tuna roll is $12, so 50 percent off of that is more in line especially as the rolls are on the smaller side. Felt like that was a gimmick to get people in. We ordered a combo of 7 pieces of nigiri and California roll $22- substituted with spicy tuna roll. They forgot to substitute so ended up getting an extra spicy tuna roll. The nigiri was fine, but the California roll was very salty and the spicy tuna roll was skimpy. It was just meh. All the specialty rolls are 50 pct off of $19.50. We had a really difficult time deciding as most seemed to be fried and heavily sauced. We chose Volcano Scallop roll- crab topped with spicy scallop, baked with spicy mayo, massago and eel sauce. This roll was incredibly salty and there was way too much mayo. Also ordered Spicy Geisha- spicy tuna, cucumber topped with salmon, jalapeño, massago and hot sauce. It was ok, nothing special. One of the chefs and a server brought us real wasabi on the house which was very nice. Service was fine but the food just was not satisfying. What really stood out was how salty everything was. Unfortunate as I had much higher hopes based on the rating.

    Look at that ratio

    Pretty good sushi for one being located at a strip mall. I was visiting from Seattle and wanted to grab a quick bite. I had like 4 other places I wanted to try but settled on King Salmon since it was down the street from my friends place and I wouldnt have to be outside for that long haha. I order the Thomas roll, Pacific roll and 3 pieces of seared salmon. I was so impressed by the seared salmon. It was double the amount of fish to rice. They do pretty well with the rice ratio for the rolls. I didn't find them too heavy. Fish were fresh. I didn't dine in so I cant speak for service but the staff I picked up from was really nice. Will definitely tell my friend to come here to grab food!

    I came here for dinner with my husband. Our hotel is just 2 miles away. I was not too hungry so I just ordered some edamame and a salmon and avocado hand roll. My husband ordered some tuna nigiri and salmon nigiri and the SOS roll. Everything was absolutely amazing! So delicious! The prices are great too! The only issue I had was there was a party of 7 kids (in their 20's) sitting next to us who were SO LOUD! The girl sitting next to me would laugh so loud it literally hurt my ear. The acoustics are not good there. We could barely hear one another over the noise of the kids. The only other issue I had was the waitress's/ hostess (she was behind the counter, sat us, and took our order and brought out our food) forgot my edamame. She took our order, said "I'll go grab that edamame for you now" and then came back 15 minutes later with our meals. So I reminded her about the edamame and then she brought it out. They were pretty busy for a Wednesday night. I would definitely return. Hopefully we will have a quieter time than last night.

    The food was so good! We got the salmon roll, salmon lover, and Thomas roll! The staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant had a really nice vibe and we would definitely come back again!

Funny enough, this actually wasn't even the exact restaurant my partner had been thinking of when he brought it up, but honestly I'm so glad we ended up here anyway because the food was REALLY good. We ordered the flaming ohmygod sushi roll, and man... it was amazing. Not only was the presentation fun, but the sushi itself actually tasted incredible too, which sometimes isn't the case with more "gimmicky" menu items. It was so good that I literally ordered another roll to-go and took it on the plane back home with me because I already knew I'd be craving it later. That alone should say enough about how much I liked it. I also tried the matcha martini, and it was honestly one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. It had the perfect balance of matcha flavor and alcohol where neither one overpowered the other. Sometimes matcha drinks either taste way too earthy or completely lose the matcha flavor under the alcohol, but this one was super smooth, flavorful, and really well done. The restaurant itself also has a really nice atmosphere. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and the indoor area definitely has a more upscale vibe than your usual sushi spot and that makes the experience feel a little more elevated and perfect for a date night. On top of all that, the servers were super friendly and provided genuinely great service throughout the meal. Everyone was attentive, welcoming, and made the experience feel really comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, this place completely exceeded my expectations. Great sushi, fun presentation, amazing drinks, friendly service, and a really nice atmosphere. I'd absolutely come back again.

We were there at around 5pm and it wasn't too busy, but there was a steady flow of diners coming in and out. Seating is ample, with outdoor, bar, sushi bar, and regular table options. I ordered two rolls: hot havana and mango roll. Both were delicious and the mango was juicy! The purple rice was super fun and set them apart from other sushi spots. I also ordered the miso soup to start. The food came out quickly. My only "complaint" is there aren't a ton of classic roll options. But this is a more upscale sushi restaurant, so it isn't surprising. I will keep this place in my list of spots to hit when I'm looking for a bite to eat in DTPHX.

They have a table or two outside but they're not setup for outdoor seating, fyi. The restaurant is nicely decorated and dark, which took some getting used to.

I got the L/Cali+Shrimp Tempura Combo: California Roll (Half Size), Shrimp Tempura Roll (Half Size), Gyoga(3PCS), Miso Soup. My companion got the L/Rainbow+Dynamite Combo: Rainbow Roll (Half Size), Dynamite Roll (Half Size), 2PCS Nigiri (Chef Choice), Miso Soup. Our soups were brought out pretty quickly and our food not long after. For the price point ($12) and quantity, my lunch special was definitely worth it.

I love their purple rice - so unique. I don't think I'd tried it before and it was good. All of the items I tried were fresh and flavorful.

I also ordered salmon skin and here is where the star deduction came into play. The salmon skin was served to me the way I asked - no rice, no sauce, no vegetables - BUT, it was burnt. So if I do go back, I would probably request them NOT to cook it so long. I ordered my husband a spicy tuna roll and a spicy salmon roll to go. He said the spicy tuna was good but the spicy salmon wasn't - it was as if the salmon quality that was used was poor.

The edamame was salted well throughout where a lot of places just put the salt on top only. We ordered a couple varieties of sake which were both good.

I love Japanese food so my decision was made. I drove over and parked in their complimentary lot. Ambiance (3.5/5): I've been to Japan and there are plenty of izakayas there. Think of them as small bars which often serve solid food. Zu fits that bit. It's a relatively small restaurant, probably seats about 30 people. and it's pretty no frills for a Japanese spot. I was seated at a booth in the corner of the restaurant. They have free WiFi which is always a good touch. Service (3/5): Service was friendly, though a bit inconsistent. My waitress wasn't as attentive as I would have liked. The type of service where you have to flag them down to get what you want and to close out. Drinks (4/5): Zu has a nice menu of Japanese and Korean beverages, including sake, soju, Japanese beer, and more. With that being said, I just had an iced green tea. Food (4/5): I got a nice variety. I went with the Japanese sausage off of the grill menu, the OBI mayo roll off of the sushi menu, and the cheese corn off of the appetizer menu. Let's start with the sausage. It's a small item, two small sausages, but absolutely delicious. The sausage was bursting with flavor and basted in a sweet sauce. Minus the portion size, perfection. The cheese corn also hit the spot, but the execution was off. The corn is served on a hot platter, and unfortunately some of the corn on the edges was badly burnt. The type of situation where they should start over. Which they didn't. Lastly, the OBI mayo roll is essentially a California roll with marinated warm shrimp on top in a mayo sauce. I didn't love the hot and cold combo (shrimp and sushi), but outside of the temperature, it was a delicious roll. All in all, a very food meal. My only gripe with Japanese food is that it can get expensive quick. Given that Zu is in Tempe, I was hoping that prices would be a little cheaper. With that being said, they do have a solid happy hour (and reverse happy hour) with both food and drink specials. Next time I stop by, I'd like to check out some of their Korean options. I focused on the Japanese stuff this time (which makes the majority of the menu). Next time around, the bulgogi is calling my name!

During the wait, seating was a challenge--we were asked to move around a few times, which got a little frustrating. Service is good overall, but during peak rush it can be tough to flag someone down when you need help. On the plus side, the happy hour menu is strong and definitely worth taking advantage of. Once you're settled in, the vibe carries the experience. Great energy and a fun scene--just be ready for a bit of a wait and some crowd management on busy nights.
