    Yellowtail Collar - wasn't cooked all the way through.
    GiGi D.

    I ordered my husband sushi delivery from Kumo Sushi, and he was BLOWN AWAY by how good it was that he wanted to actually go to the restaurant the next day to repeat how tasty his dinner was. I agreed because I was curious and I do love me some sushi/sashimi/Japanese food. Kumo doesn't have salmon skin (which is why I didn't order food from them initially - I only hit up sushi spots that offer salmon skin) but I made an exception to try it because my husband is a VERY HARSH CRITIC. Well, I have to say, Kumo did impress me as far as their sashimi goes! Very fresh, and a nice crisp taste. It was very good. I also got a hamachi collar. The portion was generous and from the looks of it, it was perfect but when I dug in, it was NOT cooked all the way through. I didn't say anything or send it back though (because you can eat hamachi / yellowtail raw), I just continued to eat because the flavor was still good. I think it could have been grilled for maybe 2-5 more minutes. I will absolutely order sushi from Kumo again for my husband, but I personally will stick with going to sushi restaurants that offer up salmon skin on their menus. Oh and I have to add: the service was INSANELY FRIENDLY. And the ambiance was nice and cozy, but not cramped.

    Bento, which includes salad, rice, miso soup, mixed tempura, and teriyaki salmon

    Was looking for a new go to spot for Japanese since I have moved to Phoenix, and I found it! This review is solely based on take out, since I have yet to eat in restaurant. Everything I have ordered is solid! I regularly order the lava roll, as well as the tempura combo platter which comes with miso soup, salad, rice, mixed tempura, and your choice of protein. I have tried both the teriyaki chicken and salmon. The food is always so fresh and delicious. They package everything so neatly. The portions are great for the price. I really have nothing bad to say about Kumo!

    great service all around! This place is new and the people who worked here were super friendly and attentive. Immediate seating! They have some great happy hour deals. My fav was the baked salmon roll. so good. The mango fresh brewed iced tea is delish. Super clean inside and good vibes. Def coming back

    Really good. (Not on happy hour)

    First time here. Really good happy hour. Nice ambiance. The food was really good. Our server was always there for us. Decent prices. Will be back soon. Highly recommend.

    We came here on a Sunday for an early dinner and were seated at a two-person table. The table was very small, and the chairs were the metal type, which weren't very comfortable. We ordered the Chirashi Bowl, Sushi Moriawase, and Ika Karaage. We always try the Chirashi Bowl whenever we visit a Japanese restaurant because it's one of our favorite ways to compare the sushi quality and value. The owner was very nice and even upgraded some of the fish for us, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, this Chirashi Bowl wasn't one of our favorites. The sushi was fresh and offered good value for the price. The Ika Karaage, however, was a bit too greasy for us. We tried it, and now we can cross it off our list.

    Spicy chicken ramen

    Best ramen ever!! I haven't even finished eating yet but I had to post about how good it is. Jerry and his crew already make the best sushi in town but now add ramen to the list. Spicy chicken ramen. And perfect portion! 5 stars!!

    Tiger roll

    Was looking for a sushi place around Desert Ridge, and Kumo was only about ten minutes away. Right of the 101, in a small strip mall, with plenty of parking. Little annoying you have to don't a U turn in a really busy spot to get to it, but it's worth it ! It's a small little place, with all the tables on one side and the sushi bar on the other. Our server was so nice and friendly. We ordered 5 rolls to start with, the sushi chef brought out the last one and chatted with us for a little. We wanted to order more, so our amazing server recommended a roll based off our other selections and was also so accommodating if we wanted to change something in one of the roll. The one the server recommended ended up being my favorite! All the rolls were great size, tasted fresh. I'm also not a big sauce person on sushi, but I quite liked some of the sauces that were paired with the sushi rolls. Next time, we will need to order some sashimi or nigri. Overall, this is such a sweet, quaint spot. You feel like you're in a family owned place that cares about everyone who comes in. Loved multiple things we ordered and we will back because of the food but also big part because of the amazing service.

    Sushi combo!!

    Best sushi combo I ever had Fresh and yuzu kosho on white fish. Fresh wasabi. All sushi was best quality and tasty!!

    Shrimp roll
    Sue H.

    I waited until I had dined twice at Kumo Sushi before writing this review. Both visits were weekday happy hour meals, with some different menu items each time. We were greeted promptly and seated immediately in the nearly empty restaurant, and our server was outgoing and friendly. On my first visit, we ordered a variety of items from both the happy hour and the regular menu. I will note that the happy hour menu is very affordable. But when you order from the regular menu you will pay more for items normally priced less at other Japanese restaurants. For example we received tiny portions of squid salad $7.50 and cucumber salad $6.50, and had the garlic edamame $8. These same items are often discounted at happy hour, but not here. We ordered the Alaskan roll, a California roll and a shrimp roll. I like their California roll filling, and the shrimp roll was small and tight but tasty. The Alaskan roll had a disgusting white sauce all over it under the salmon, so I will remember to order it with no sauce next time. The squid salad seemed like a tiny portion piled on a lot of spring mix lettuce, and the vegetables were not bright green indicating the squid salad was not at its freshest. The cucumber salad was likewise tasty but small, cucumbers are well under a dollar each but this salad was not value priced. We also ordered the garlic edamame, very tasty and although the portion was better it was not on happy hour either. On my first visit I noticed that the rolls were cut in very large pieces, and this made them difficult to eat. On my second visit we had happy hour tuna roll, shrimp roll and California roll all served together on a large round plate. We had the rolls cut smaller to make them easier to eat this time. Draft Kirin beer was $3 and small hot sake were $2.50, a great value. However, my first hot sake was cold, and I pointed this out to the server who turned up the heat, and my second hot sake was at least lukewarm. I really don't believe that I should have been charged for the first cold hot sake. It left a bad feeling when unaddressed at the end even though I mentioned it to the replacement server. At some point during the my meal, we saw our server had left the building and was walking towards Costco. There was no hand off to a new server, a gentleman who did not care about a problem we had discussed with the prior server which was left unresolved. He asked if I had mentioned it to my prior server which I had. Nothing had been done about it. He presented the bill without comment, and never came back expecting us to pay by QR code even though our concerns were unaddressed. I even sat there for a while without paying, hoping he would at least make eye contact and I could ask. That did not occur, although he served a nearby table, he seemed not to care about us at all. Although many reviews mention meeting the owner or the business manager, no one came to check on us at any point during my two visits besides our server. I did see a woman tending the plants in the lobby, they are lovely. What I do see is a small business struggling with basic customer service skills, while delivering reasonable quality, strip mall sushi. I think you can do better, and I wish you success.

    Sashimi salad with uni on top, mango ice tea
    Eileen S.

    We're so happy this restaurant is open! The Kumo Sashimi Deluxe for two is fantastic. Four pieces of sashimi for each type of fish (so no one has to fight or negotiate), amaebi (sweet shrimp, highly unusual) and octopus salad. A lot of things included: Yuzu pepper, fresh wasabi, ponzu sauce, pickled carrots, wakame. The truffle hamachi roll is awesome. The owner Jerry suggested quail egg with our uni, and the hamachi toro is buttery. Mango iced tea is awesome. Happy hour rocks, too. 9/2026 picture: We taste-tested toro + uni + ikura salmon roe + caviar, with fresh wasabi in front. This is indescribable as everything blends into something luxurious we've never tasted before. Truly an experience. Chef's kiss.

    Spicy tuna roll

    This was some of the best sushi I've had in the valley. We also got the baked scallop roll and unagi (freshwater eel). Excellent service and delicious food

The atmosphere is super classy and cute, with great date-night vibes. Parking can be a little limited with the English pub next door, but it's definitely worth a stop. We started with a few of their buns. The pork belly was my favorite, but the fried chicken and meatball were both very good! For dinner, we ordered the fried rice, XO noodles, and shaking beef. The beef was a little more well done than I prefer, but everything was packed with flavor. Portions were generous, presentation was beautiful, and overall, the food was delicious. Most dishes averaged around $20, which felt very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. And a special shoutout to Keith - his service was fantastic throughout the entire meal! Great atmosphere, flavorful food, generous portions, and excellent service. We'll definitely be back!

I usually have the Pork Tonkatsu ramen, Katsu sando, and Krazy Fries and everyday I'm away from Phoenix I CRAVE these so badly. Amazing and ambitious flavor combos that all fit so well together.

I've served in restaurants for 20 years, at elite places such as, Hillstone along with Chelsea's Kitchen and Buck and Rider, and I am appalled by the behavior of the staff tonight. I discourage anyone from coming into this place. The service is underrated. And as a paying customer, enjoying a meal with a friend, I am very disturbed that they would kick us out before closing time. This lady walks around and says "closed, closed" and starts turning off all the lights. I said "Oh the website says you close at 10pm" and the lady with the top knot bun and glasses said "yeah, but no one is in here so we are closed." Ummm we were in there. Poor hospitality on their part. Not worth it. Go somewhere else. Sushi Michi on 16th st & Bethany, or Full Moon Izakaya Sushi and Ramen, is way better and they don't close earlier because they didn't have any walkins at the point, nor do they kick people out before closing time. Also when we left a car had just pulled up to grab dinner. Turning away customers is poor ethics on behalf of Cherry Blossom. No wonder no one goes here and everything is so out dated. ALSO I had asked for a wine sample to decide which wine I wanted and our waitress said "we don't do samples". Okay well every other restaurant I've been to and worked at has samples. What a way to miss a sale. Wine was $15 a glass. Wouldn't you want that to improve your check average? These people are turning away money. So sad

We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.
