    Omakase
    Jae J.

    I have nothing but great things to say about Sake Haus. The fish is extremely fresh, service was attentive on a Sunday night, and the chefs truly know the art of sushi making. I love the very traditional, raw, and small menu. In my experience, that means everything is amazing. And truly, it was. This was the best omakase experience I've ever had. I do wish there was a 10-15 piece option, but everything was so good, ordering twice and a la carte worked just as well. The miso soup was also amazing with the coconut milk and mushrooms added It is a small, intimate restaurant with outdoor seating, so don't bring a big party, but perfect for date night. I will definitely return next time I am in Phoenix and try more of the menu. I'm currently craving it and wish I could go back now

    Impeccable vibes at Sake Haus during a recent visit to Phoenix last weekend. The final night of my visit to Scottsdale ended with an overnight in downtown Phoenix. Nested right in the Roosevelt Row district Sake Haus' high reviews caught my eye. Split between a sushi bar and full bar with cozy restaurant seating, vibey red lighting and a cool art mural made for the perfect early dinner following Sunday funday. Music was very on point as well. Very straight forward sushi/nigiri menu, with unlimited Japanese whiskeys and drink options, SH definitely hit the mark. I had the seared scallop and salmon nigiri to start and the bad and buri rolls. The bartender shared all dishes came pre dressed which made for flavorful bites and no need for soy or wasabi. The yellow tail 2 ways on the bad and buri with agauchile sauce on top made for an awesome bite. Paired with the Black Sakura old fashioned, easily the best prepared and balanced cocktail I had all weekend. This team knows what they're doing. Run don't walk to Sake Haus if yourself in the Phoenix area! I'll be back for sure!

    Went here for HH after working at the coffee shop next door. I sat at the bar and service was great! The inside was dim lit and nicely decorated. The handrolls were stacked and probably my favorite. The nigiri pieces were pretty big. The specialty ones had accoutrements on top although I honestly prefered the basic ones. The sushi overall was pretty good. The HH prices were great, I'd definitely come again.

    Started out our Friday night here and from the moment we walked up to the host stand the service was impeccable. The host was so nice and communicative. She sad our party of 5 and our server greeted us with the same amazing attitude. Food was very yummy and fresh and had a cute lil restaurant vibe. We got a bunch of appetizers to split and a few drinks and it was the perfect way to start the night!

    Jenna is not nice! The food was amazing, the hostess and food runners were great as well! However, our server was very rude. Not once checked in on our table. When someone at our table asked a question about the contents of a food item, she rudely stated, "Whatever it says on the menu." At the end of our meal, I had to find her myself and ask for the check (due to her never checking in on us). When she came to clear the table, she asked if i was "done with this" and I mistakenly thought she was referring to my food. Instead of clarifying, she picked up my wine glass and waved it in my face and said, "No, this." Umm, rude. Will not be going back due to Jenna.

    Very good, only sad thing is that they were out of our first picks for food (ran out of certain types of fish). The alternative recommendations our server gave were good though! The akuma was amazing!

    Had such a great experience at Sake Haus. Megan was our server and she was amazing -- super friendly, attentive, and really knew the menu. GM Sydney also stopped by to check on us, which was such a nice touch and shows how much they care about service. Food and drinks were great as always, but the hospitality really stood out this visit. Shoutout to Megan and Sydney for making our night. We'll definitely be back!

    Great sushi spot in Roosevelt row. They have a nice small outdoor patio and a cool seating area inside, especially further in the back. Greta cocktails and sushi rolls too. Shoutout to the servers they're are so helpful.

    Came here after a baseball game and was seated immediately and the vibe was so welcoming. We have never been and the reviews looked so good. Glad we tried it. We got seated in the back and ordered some drinks and food. The host explained all the specials of the day and her recommendations. Drinks: Make it tiki matcha marg and rita toki-yo sour passion fruit sake Food: Ryujin The 808 The Ronin The kitsune Bad and Buri

    This is high-end sushi in a fun punk-rock atmosphere. They have a wide variety and the waitstaff is happy to answer questions and make recommendations. I took a relative who just moved here from the LA area, whose favorite food is sushi, and he was impressed. It is on the pricier side.

    My sister brought me here on my most recent trip to Phoenix. It's one of her favorite sushi spots in the city. We made a reservation for Thursday night but honestly it probably wasn't necessary. The place was pretty empty. Some of the dishes we ordered included the wagyu fat pork gyoza, which were super tasty and flavorful. This was one of my favorite items of the night. They also had three types of oysters on special, so we ordered one of each. All of them were great, but the aguachile oysters were absolutely incredible. We liked them so much that we ordered a second round. We also split the akami crudo, which was lean bluefin tuna served with an avocado sauce. It was so fresh and tender it practically melted in your mouth. Another dish we ordered was the orange blossom, a cold salmon plate served with caramelized orange pieces. The salmon was extremely fresh, and the citrus paired perfectly with it. Such a refreshing combination. We shared a couple of rolls as well, including the Ryujin, a spicy tuna roll topped with fried garlic. We all loved it. I'm a big fan of anything garlicky, so this was right up my alley. My favorite roll of the night, though, was the Bad and Buri. It was yellowtail, which is my favorite, and was topped with aguachile. That topping took the roll to the next level!! We tried the Sake House exclusive sake flight, which was good but honestly one flight to share might have been enough. They're strong! We also got the matcha margarita. I love both matcha and margaritas, but I had never tried them together. I'm a fan now!!! Overall, for three people, we spent just under $300. That included a few more drinks and dishes than I mentioned here and we didn't hold back when ordering. I think the food was a great value considering the quality. Service was just okay. I wish our server had checked in on us a bit more, especially since the restaurant wasn't busy. Also, the bathroom situation was a bit of a hassle since it's shared with other businesses in the complex. It's a bit of a walk which isn't ideal if you're drinking and need to go multiple times. But that's just me being picky.

    10/10/2025 Sake Haus has been on my list since they opened, so I was excited to finally check them out. They have happy hour Monday-Friday from 4-6pm, so I met up with a friend there around 4:30pm on a Friday. All food items were 25% off, plus 50% off for sake and beer. I had checked Yelp beforehand for food recommendations, and saw that many people ordered the Orange Blossom (under Chef Specials), Kyuubi (Maki roll), and Bad & Buri (Maki roll). Those definitely met the hype! Highly recommend the Orange Blossom if you like salmon. The ponzu + avocado puree + tomato oil mixture paired so well with the salmon sashimi. The slices of blood orange tasted sweet and really good on their own, but not great if you eat it with the salmon. Kyuubi was so good that we ordered a second one! It's salmon two-ways - LOVED the seared salmon on top. I think the smoky, seared taste takes it to the next level. Bad & Buri was yellowtail two-ways - the taste was a bit lighter than Kyuubi since it's white fish and paired with aguachile. For drinks, my friend got the Autumn Assassin sake and really enjoyed it. I got the Make It Smoke cocktail because I like gin and mezcal but have never tried them combined. It was a nice smoky drink, but just a tad too sweet for me, probably from the Giffard N/A Ginger. We sat at the bar in the back, and our bartender/waiter was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was very chill. It was a bit dim inside, but I liked the vibe. There is also seating at the sushi bar toward the front if you want to watch the sushi chefs do their thing. The quality of the food was so good. I already want to go back! Note: They use QR codes for the menus. I was able to load the website (with Verizon), but my friend didn't have any reception there. I'm not sure if they have a paper menu as backup.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
