Bathroom wallpaper

I wanted to like this place more, I really did. Our server Maki was very sweet, and attentive without being a helicopter. But I have a couple gripes: We asked to be seated on the patio, and we were, but the material of the seats on the patio is something that felt like it could burn you through pants in March. I can't imagine sitting outside, misters or fans not withstanding, in a Tucson summer. When we moved ourselves to seating that was shaded, the hostess decided to come and snark at us for doing so. Something really off-putting and brings this to a three instead of a four is the mildly NSFW manga content in the bathroom. I thought the concept and wallpapering was a pretty cool interior decorating idea I hadn't seen before. However, this intrigue was my downfall. I saw a couple series I recognized, and within the minute I was using the restroom, saw aforementioned NSFW panels. How many pairs of eyes did that go through before it was decided to be put in BOTH bathrooms? As far as food is concerned, I ordered the salted edamame (not pictured), salmon sashimi, rainbow roll, baja jalapeño roll, and mountain roll. I am of the belief you can't mess up edamame or a rainbow roll, which proved to be true for Sushi Garden as well. The sashimi was very buttery, and I really enjoyed the portion size. If you are a person who likes to mix fruit and raw fish, the mountain roll is a good choice, but the baja jalapeño roll tastes like a jalapeño popper had an unfortunate union with a California roll. Not for me, but that isn't something I would have taken in to account for my review.

Everything was wonderful! I was a little nervous about the reviews but we decided to go anyway and glad we did. Super modern and clean and im pretty sure this is at a slightly different location from what I remember years ago? There is alot of construction here so its possible they are in a new building. Our waiter was quick and very friendly. I would come back for happy hour or date night. The sushi was so yummy! We got a few different rolls and they were all pretty tasty

Crab Cucumber Salad

Bombzeeeee! Always the best. Best service. Best food. Best place to be. I always love coming to this location and restaurant. The servers and boss check up on you to make sure you're good which I appreciate. Food doesn't take too long to come out. I love the way they designed the restaurant too. The open bar is cool too. I came here to take some notes and sat at the bar. Was really nice. Food was great. Got crab cucumber salad, spicy mayo and lemons. Then a Philly roll. Perfect lunch

We were seated right away without having to wait. They have a great selection of different menu items including sushi, noodles, tempura, soups, sashimi, etc. This place can get busy and it did seem like they might need to number the tables for orders on the weekend since the servers bringing out the food did not always know what table items went to. We never ended up getting our edamame order, but the seared red ahi tuna with avocado and salmon sashimi were both good. They give you fairly large portions of sashimi which is nice. The cucumber salad was just okay. My spouse enjoyed the poke bowl as well.

I was not pleased by any means with the sushi I was presented with at Sushi Garden. I ordered the Shrimp Tempura Roll and the Volcano Roll for my dinner and was excited to say the least until the food arrived to my table. The Shrimp Tempura Roll should just be called Tempura Roll because 2/6 pieces on my plate were just Tempura batter and no shrimp, WHAT A RIP OFF. Not to mention the shrimp was cold, every other place I have been to has served their Tempura Shrimp warm. The Volcano roll was tolerable but far from excellent. The miso soup was the best part of my experience because it was actually delicious. The service was good and the manager who greeted us at the door was very welcoming and friendly. I just have a problem with paying for poor quality food. I will not be returning to this establishment.

Shrimp platter. Notice wilted cabbage and lame stir fry under shrimp.

It's the battle of sushi restaurants in Oro Valley. I ate at both in just two weeks. Feel free to read my Sushi Valley one on Yelp. At SG, we ordered the garden roll, veggie tempura, and the shrimp with stir-fried veggies meal. From an ambiance standpoint, SG dominates over SV. A point to SG. Service wise, I'm going slightly to SG. Another point. The garden roll consists of avocado, pickled mountain carrots, wrapped in seaweed, and rice. It comes with a Jalapeno Honey Sauce and some other sauce they do not mention on the menu. It also comes with ginger and Wasabi. I liked the rolls, but a dip in the sauce is a must. I couldn't tell you what the red dollops were because I couldn't figure out the flavor. The green was a winner, a bit of this will take it to a higher level of intense, and with a tiny bit of Wasabi a total ping. HUGE WIN. I didn't try any roll at SV. The Veggie tempura at SG was a fail. I found it more greasy than SV, and the veggies were a mix. The usual fare sans eggplant. The sauce will be a huge miss. It was nothing more than soy sauce. Why? SV had some type plum sauce that worked. SV wins a point. The main meal. Again, the dipping sauce was soy sauce with scallions. Why? Has anyone at SG dipped shrimp into it? Fail. The shrimp were small, nicely seasoned, and plenty for one. The stir fry veggies were disgusting. First, they are under the shrimp. Secondly, it looked like wilted cabbage, a couple of sliced/julienne carrots, and one other item I already forgot. No sauce, no flavor, and seriously, they should be embarrassed by serving that. I initially had fried rice with it, which costs about 2 bucks more, but when it showed up, it has corn in it, and with my allergy to corn, no go. They were nice to switch it out to plain white rice. Total cost for the meal with ice tea and Diet Coke wad about $52 with tax.

First time here. Busy place, clean, good staff. Enjoyed the food. Wine wasn't bad either for being boxed. Our server was Wijit? She was very helpful and accommodating. We'll definitely be back.

46$ for 4 huge rolls and crab puff appetizer is quite a deal. Also got eel and jalapeño bomb.

Great service, food and location is sooo much better than old place at foothills mall.

I don't know how busy this place gets, but we were seated right away when we got in. We're lucky to have a very good server. I kinda doubt the authenticity of their food cause I don't see any Japanese chef, at the sushi bar. But the maki/roll is pretty good. I had the Pork ramen, and it was okay. But if you are looking for a fine dining experience, this is not the place for you.

Teriyaki Chicken Salad
Chelsea J.

My rating is strictly for the new location and my salad. I thought the new restaurant is beautiful inside and out. The patio was perfect tonight since it was warm outside today. Service was somewhat slow. I'm not a big fan of their sushi but I was with a friend who loves the Baja roll, so I got the teriyaki chicken salad. I didn't use the teriyaki sauce but I did use the ginger dressing and it was light and delicious. My salad had some black/bad lettuce but otherwise I really enjoyed it. There were no carrots like the menu mentions.

Spicy Aloha Poke Bowl

My friend and I were in last night had such a wonderful experience. I wish I could remember our server's name because he was incredible!Top notch service. He was very attentive and went above and beyond. We felt very well taken care of! The server's assistants were amazing as well taking care that our table was tidy at all times. The bartender even stopped by while out on the floor. We were commenting we had not had service like this in a long time! I had a Poke bowl and my friend had a couple of Sushi rolls. Both were beautifully presented, fresh and delicious! Atmosphere was bright, cheery and clean. Thank you all for a delightful evening. We will definitely be back!

They've got some amazing salads on the menu that set them apart from the other Sushi restaurants in town.

My fiancé took me here for dinner wanted to try this place out and the food was good we had…read morevegetables and shrimp tempura, Tucson roll, Spicy tuna and sex on the beach roll. Service, we walked in and the girl at the register ask for how many people, we said for 2 and she said you can sit anywhere so we said if we can sit at the booth table, so she said we couldn't because that was for 4 or more on weekend.., she should not say sit anywhere then.. then we sat at a table and it wasn't clean as well and she saw that and gave a quick wipe down. I wasn't happy because you should not say sit anywhere.. She was an ok server, I wasn't happy when I walked in .. then got to ordering she took the order and my fiancé had order the food. The brought out miso soup first before watever you wanted to order.She wasn't a nice server from tone of voice. Ambience is ok. Had booth table and tables and chairs sitting also they have a sushi bar where you can see a chief making rolls and etc..

"Ohio!"--a cheerful Japanese good morning, not the state was exactly the spirit I walked in with…read morewhen I arrived at Shogun on a scorching over-100-degree Tucson afternoon. My daughter described the ambiance as "interesting," which is a very kind and diplomatic way to say... it has personality. The kind that makes you look around and go, "Okay... I see what you're trying to do here." But let's be honest we came for the food, not a design critique. Now, my ordering style? Zero restraint. I went all in: Las Vegas roll with sesame crust, scallop and salmon rolls, sashimi lunch special, and sukiyaki beef. Yes, all for me. I believe in commitment. After tasting everything, I found myself in a bit of a flavor identity crisis. The scallops and salmon? Absolutely worth talking about fresh, clean, and memorable. Those bites had purpose. The rest... well, they were polite. And by polite, I mean they didn't offend me, but they also didn't leave a lasting impression. The kind of dishes you forget before you even start your car. Now, the sukiyaki this one needs a little heart-to-heart. It leaned a bit too sweet, like it was trying to win me over with sugar instead of depth. The tofu came in cold (which felt like a surprise I didn't ask for), and the beef... unfortunately, it was overworked and under-juicy. The service, however, was lovely attentive and kind. I tipped happily. But if the food rises to meet that level, I'd be ready to compliment the chef just as generously. Shogun has the foundation it just needs a little more consistency and confidence in the kitchen to turn "interesting" into "impressive." -- Teeraya Tomlin
