    Seaweed salad.
    Holly S.

    This is a delivered meal, so I am just writing about the food. I will visit the brick and mortar another day. I ordered Curry Chicken and it is prepared with tofu, eggplant, shiitake mushrooms and chicken. The curry was rich and complex, and I appreciated that. Layers of flavor... The spice level said spicy, however I will order a bit more heat next order. The eggplant , tofu and shiitake mushrooms , potato's , added a different take on the dish, and it worked. I did find the curry a bit darker brown than I am accustomed to. It tasted great, and the darker color may be the eggplant adding color. I will order again and update if needed. The seaweed salad is amazing. Perfect mix of spices and vinegar. Crunchy, full of flavor, and delicious. I usually do not post anything about rice, however the brown rice in this order was delicious. It had texture, and such a great flavor. This place is a great addition to the NW side!!

    This is a great spot with sushi Chinese and Thai cuisine. Drink specials were on point. We were able to get seater quickly on a Friday night. Service was fast and friendly. The food was pretty good. We opted for sushi on this visit. We will be back to try the Chinese and Thai options.

    This was our initial visit to this establishment, and we observed that their menu is identical to Ni's Bistro. Our server was exceptionally pleasant and accommodating, ensuring all our needs were met and making us feel very welcome. I particularly appreciate the interior design; the place has been meticulously maintained, appearing very clean and tastefully decorated. Their music selection is also quite enjoyable. I would certainly recommend this location if you have a fondness for Asian cuisine. The food is both delicious and beautifully presented.

    Phoenix roll and Spicy Salmon roll

    What a great addition to the Marana area! We visited on a Sunday early afternoon and it was not busy. The interior is very nicely decorated, spacious, and very clean. There are some fun vending machine toy games that are sure to attract the kiddos! I had edamame and two sushi rolls (one fancy and one regular). The portions were generous! Especially for the deluxe roll. Perfect fish to rice ratio and everything tasted fresh. Prices seem fair. We will be back!

    The prices are excellent, I haven't had the chance to dine in yet but ordered to-go from Kirin twice in one week. The fish quality is great, the mussel app is one of my favorites, the employees were very friendly and attentive when I was picking up my take out order. The decor of the restaurant was well done and good location.

    Phoenix roll, first kiss roll, honeybee roll
    Chelsea J.

    Quite possibly the best sushi I've ever had. The rolls were very fresh and a very generous size. We got the first kiss roll, Phoenix roll, and honeybee roll. They were all delicious but the first kiss roll stood out this time for me. 3 rolls is plenty for 2 to share. I started with the garden salad with ginger dressing and the dressing was good enough to drink. The salad is way too small, just a handful of lettuce, so I wouldn't order it again. The service was extremely friendly and they did a great job with the renovations since it used to be Barros Pizza. The same family also owns Ni's on La Cholla. This is an awesome addition to the area. Highly recommend.

    So excited to have another sushi place on the north side of town! The same owners have a few other restaurants in northern AZ too. Service was so friendly, multiple people greeted and welcomed us at the door. The fish was fresh and melt-in-your-mouth, our drinks were kept topped up. The rolls weren't overwhelmed with a ton of extra rice, which we love. We sat directly under an AC vent and got very cold but otherwise the restaurant was spotless and inviting with great decor.

    Deluxe Poke Bowl
    Tracy Z.

    Our family of 4 ate at the newly opened Kirin Asian Bistro in Marana at the Arizona Pavilions. I have been looking forward to this for months, it absolutely did not disappoint. I did not get pics of everything (we had an infant with us so a tad preoccupied), but everything was delicious! We started with the firecracker shrimp, the mains were teriyaki steak, triple delight with garlic sauce, & Deluxe poke bowl. In addition we had a yellowtail hand roll (I added masago), & spicy tuna hand roll, pepper tuna nigiri, & the Fire Island Roll. Everything was perfect! I do not like huge rolls nor roll that have a lot of rice, the roll was on spot! Another plus is the wine a great price, $7.50 a glass. So for all those dishes, including 3 glasses of wine & a bottle of pineapple sake our bill was $152ish! I think that is a great price. Also, the service was spot on (they are very kind) and the ambience very nice.

    Plate A on the Sushi platter.  Delicious

    Brand new and starting off right. Great service and great food! Very impressed! We tried the spicy garlic edamame. I order a Philly roll and spicy salmon roll. My son got a salmon roll, tuna roll and California roll. Food was very good and enjoyed the atmosphere.

    My wife and I love Kirin Asian Bistro, a great new restaurant in Marana! Tiffany, our server and host, was excellent and provided great service from start to finish. We had the chicken and vegetable tempura, chicken with broccoli, miso soup, mango macha (green tea) mochi, and everything was very good. It's impressive that this restaurant has only been open 5 days -- the service and food were both great. We will definitely be back!

My mom is NOT a…read moresushi fan but the reviews on chicken teriyaki made her happy, and when the dish arrived on a sizzling cast iron platter, her happy smile came out - even before trying the dish! It was delicious and came with miso to start and a side of rice. Dad and I got 2 bites of yellowtail sushi, rainbow roll, crunch roll and the kamikaze roll. Soooo good! Perfect fresh fish. The yellowtail was heavenly. Buttery soft and delicate. We loved every bite. Another review mentioned the sports/Japanese decor combo, and we actually enjoyed it while watching game 6 of the World Series. We seem to have a problem with forgetting to take pictures of our dishes, but I promise you will get delicious food here!

Judgment of the Ahi color when it first came out I was already skeptical. Honestly there's a lot better restaurants out there with fresher fish. The salmon was the only redeeming quality. Instead of giving more fish they give Sunomono (pickled cucumber) and Korean seaweed salad I only got one cup of water and tea. Wasn't asked for a refill. Miso Soup was the machine made one so it was a bit salty.

This was not what we expected but the staff was friendly and 1/2 patrons at the food hall were eating sushi. The stalls have big energy today and lots of patrons are searching for a seat. Why not give them a chance? The menu is fairly varied for a small pop-up with traditional and deep fried sushi rolls. The female wait staff is handing out egg drop soup samples to everyone, ever those eating pizza and gyros. Looking around, these rolls are huge. We chose the Sonoran roll with shrimp tempora, spicy tuna, spicy crab topped with seared salmon and yuzu sauce. This roll was flavorful and spicy. Another roll was the Samurai with shrimp tempora, cream cheese, avacado wrapped in soy paper deep fried and covered with spicy crab / shrimp mix baked in a spicy aioli and eel sauce. This was our favorite roll with a pop in the tempora shrimp and an uncious taste coupled with a bite. Our third and final roll was the heart attack. Another spicy roll with shrimp tempora, avacado, cream cheese topped with jalepeno, spicy crab and chef sauce. Again, another good roll and a ton of food. This food mall is in an unassuming neighborhood with a smiling server who is hustling like crazy. The sushi was good, unique and tasty. It was a huge amount of food. Give this hard working staff and chance, she is enthusiastic and working hard. To the staff at Samurai Sombrero who are working hard and obviously, not a trained sushi chef. To the public, take a chance, give Samurai Sombrero a try and judge for yourself.

I opted for the #3 lunch special (3 pieces of sushi and a roll + miso soup) for $14. All reasonable, given that it's sushi, but I'll be honest, this still-growing-boy needed a bit more after that! The sushi itself was "ok" but the hand roll was terrific. Staff was attentive to all entrees and drinks (refilling my friend's diet coke 3 times!) and had zero problem with doing 4 separate checks too. Venue is simple and leans towards a subdued Asian-typical theme. Parking is easy and free in the shared strip-mall lot.

Feb 7 for two Hamachi Kamas ($16/each) and one Chirashi ($30) to go. These Kamas came with salad, miso soup, rice and half orange. Well salted and peppered to perfection. Chirashi was similar with abandon of fresh sashimis and rice. (see photos below) Their sushi boat ($59) is always a delightful feast for multiple people. Their servers are very friendly and attentive to all customers too. I highly recommend this restaurant to all sushi lovers. (Other Note: Ordered same dishes from Kazoku sushi on Feb 3rd because Sushi Cho was closed. Their Hamachi kamas were much smaller, charred, no garnishes and more expensive ($18). Their Chirashi ($35) sashimis are very fresh too, but not as much and not as many kinds as Sushi Cho.)

We had a table so we'd be able to watch the TVs since baseball was on. Our servers named is Cassandra and she was the best server I think we've ever had, she was so kind and helpful. She made sure to keep checking in and keeping us ordering more and more food. We asked what items she liked the most, and she was spot on for all her recommendations. We stayed I think 3 hours and just took our time trying different food items and the only one that needs work is the tempura it was undercooked and not crispy enough. My favorite item was the fried fish, and my cocktail the Pineapple Express. I had read a some reviews before going and we did hear they had a lot of bad reviews from previous staff. The restaurant has definitely turned around from what you've read, so if you had a bad first impression I would recommend going back and trying them again. The one thing I do want to throw out there is the lack of bartenders that's my only call out. My mom wanted an old fashioned and the guy who made it was a bar back and had no experience making drinks. So once you fix that then I think you'll be killing it. So until that happens my rating will be 4 stars, so that way there's a chance for improvement. Next time I'm visiting I will be coming back and hopefully Cassandra is still working, she's one of your best workers.
