I did a quick search on my Yelp app and saw that SR&G was not far from their pickleball training and decided that a nigiri bento box sounded good to me too... I went online to place an order on their website and was also pleasantly surprised with the prices - it turns out that this meal would not be that much more than what I would normally spend on dinner at a nearby fast food restaurant, yet so much healthier! The ordering process was easy and allowed me to pay upon arrival. I went to pick it up about 30 minutes later and everything looked and tasted delicious. Service was friendly and everything was packed well with the condiments and chopsticks needed for our order. The restaurant itself is in a shopping center and has a casual and welcoming ambiance. As noted above, I'm sure I'll be back soon!

The sushi quality is nice and fresh, and the servers are kind and attentive. I also love that the solo fish rolls like the salmon roll or yellowtail are huge! I took off a star due to the lady with the silver chain around her neck, who was handling seating people/to go orders up front. She had an attitude towards me and other customers, and I heard her distinctly yell at one of the waitresses because she made a mistake. Not a good look for your business to have such a disgruntled worker.

Saturday lunch at Yanagi somehow surpassed even my first incredible experience there…read more It was a lighter afternoon service, with Han behind the sushi bar and Misook running front of house. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles, genuine hospitality, and the kind of welcome that makes a place start feeling like home. What makes Yanagi special is that the experience becomes a conversation through the food itself. Han asked if I would trust him to make a few alterations to one of my selections, including a garlic ponzu preparation for the hamachi that was absolutely outstanding -- balanced, layered, and unforgettable. Then came a few off-menu surprises that reminded me exactly why sitting at the sushi bar matters. Thoughtful preparations, incredible fish, and the kind of attention to detail you only get from chefs who truly care about the experience they're creating. Every visit to Yanagi deepens my appreciation for what they are building there. This isn't just great sushi. It's warmth, craftsmanship, hospitality, and passion all working together in perfect harmony. One of the absolute gems of the East Valley. (I'm a picture taker. Not here. #ItsThatGood)

The chef was great, food great but overall I missed the cozy vibes of Chandler. I also missed the gyoza, and other items this location changed. The cocktails were good, the matcha martini was flavorful. Don't get me wrong I loved the food, different vibe, but it's not Chandler Shimogamo with the cozy vibes, and traditional menu items. I wanted to try the steak items but they were very over priced in comparison to other local restaurants. I will say the carbonara was good but missing the fish element.

Thankfully, my waitress saw me standing there and greeted me while she was serving another table; this prompted the older woman seated to shuffle back up to assist. Thankfully it was just a rocky start, and the experience would turn around and overall the ambiance/decor of the restaurant was nice. My waitress was very attentive to get a refill of my soda, offered a recommendation that I ended up ordering and enjoying, and even offered a soda to go which I appreciated. The veggie gyoza was a great vegetarian item that I would get again as I usually eat meat free. Though this visit, I did enjoy salmon by ordering the recommended Phoenix roll. Pretty good roll, though I do prefer a location by me. If in the area, this place is worth trying.

The sushi is just not good. I have to stop coming here and it's a bummer because I live super close and used to love it. The green tea was even bad- all I could taste was hot tap water and it cost me $4.25 Not worth spending money there.

When I walked in, I was promptly directed to where I should go so I could place a takeout order. The genuine courtesy of the staff here was just what I needed after a long day. Lots of great options for sushi but ramen sounded amazing on a chilly winter day. I ordered a couple options and requested for the toppings to be separated so my picky eater could pick out what she didn't like. The food was out promptly and packaged with such care. Once I got it back to my daughter's hospital room, we were able to feast on the best meal we had all day. I will definitely be coming back to this place again and I am grateful for their kindness just when I needed it. Highly recommend!

Our scallop and chicken yakitoris were great too. I didn't get to try it but the table next to us got agedashi tofu that looked great. Side note, every table was full--always a good sign for a restaurant when there's lots of competition.

The restaurant is fairly large, and seems like a lot of people like coming here for family/friend dinners. Like the name insists, the teppanyaki is the way to go. Their menu isn't that large, so it was pretty easy to make a decision. I opted for the filet mignon (rare) along with shrimp. Teppanyaki is really more of a show/experience, so the food comes out to you in sections (versus all at once like at a traditional restaurant). The filet was so soft, and was perfectly rare, and the shrimp was so good. I think in the future I'd eat a whole plate of shrimp. I also got to try the yakiniku, and that was also pretty good but very sweet. Their Boo Yah Ka roll was also pretty yummy. It's essentially a spring roll, but with some spice and citrus to it. I felt that the portion was good for a large meal, but my friend who got the chef's combo definitely had enough for leftovers.
