Was wowed away. All the food was amazing and definitely hit the spot. Everything is reasonable priced and well worth it. The sunshine roll was top notch probably best sushi I've had in Arizona in a while. We'll definitely be returning and found our new sushi spot:) The service was great all the staff is friendly and inviting. The ambiance is very warm and calming perfectly for a nice little date night. read more

This place is small but quaint it makes you feel homey. There are 8 tables in the place. But you don't feel like you are on top of each other. The waitress was very nice and made sure we were good with drinks. Now the food well I ordered first the yellow tail sashimi with ponzu and holy moly so good. Next I ordered the baked scallop roll. And this also was so good! The scallops were perfectly cooked and the sauces on it were good. Then I preferred the rolls pop roll. Which was also phenomenal. After we were almost done eating we met May who is the owner. She is awesome. We sat and talked to her for awhile about her experience as a sushi chef and this place finally coming together. I will be back for sure. read more

This is by far my new favourite sushi restaurant, why? Great prices Superb service Artistic presentation Great food Kay makes you feel like part of her family. Each time we come we've discovered great sushi served with much love. Kay recently took over this restaurant late 2024 and has been slowly developing the business and menu, she's doing a fantastic job at the food, prices and decor. What am amazing experience and by far the cheapest sushi you can find at such high quality. read more

Came for a quick meal and it was great! It looks unassuming from the outside but the inside is nicely decorated and clean. Small restaurant, maybe 8-9 tables (~30 people). We were the only ones there at 4pm, unsurprisingly. The host/owner(?) was super sweet. I ordered 2 rolls (salmon roll and sunny roll) and they were good! The fish was good quality and tasted fresh. The korean ramen was okay. All of the food was very affordable as well! I think almost all the rolls were $10-15. Would recommend! read more

Absolutely fantastic experience this evening. We happened to stumble upon this place after passing by time after time and I'm very glad we actually stopped. The lovely women working and running this place this evening had me and my partner speechless. They were so kind and attentive and they made us feel extremely welcome. Not to mention them being insanely talented sushi chefs! The quality of the fish and the flavors of each roll were just as amazing as the service as well. 100/10 for sure, can't wait for next time read more

This place was such a great date night! Small & quaint but not over each other. 1 sushi chef so don't be in a hurry. Rolls were just as good if not better than the higher end sushi in Phx. We'll be back! read more

When we first walked in at about noon on a Saturday we were surprised to find that the restaurant was completely empty of patrons. We were greeted by a friendly server and immediately seated. I wasn't long before people started to arrive and it quickly got busy. We first noticed that the sushi rolls were listed alphabetically which was a nice change so I could easy spot my favorites. Next we noticed how low their prices were. We selected 3 rolls and edamame. I ordered my typical Philadelphia Roll but was surprised to see that they add salmon on the top. It was scrumptious. The fish was very fresh and we enjoyed the rolls. The Wasabi wasn't spicy at all but hopefully it was just that day. We will definitely be returning. read more

The food was good had it delivered to my house. So I can't rate the service. Everything was good

My wife and I love sushi and love to eat it as we travel. We have even recently visited Japan where we had sushi there, and Sushi Island was right among the same quality we found there. The owner was our server, and she truly was attentive and very kind. The restaurant is small, so probably not large enough for more than 4 or so at a table, but truly was amazing. I would recommend the sushi here over many of the other more expensive or well known Sushi restaurants in Phoenix. read more

The ambience is familiar like a family/ friend runs the restaurant & the server / sushi Chef were super kind & welcoming. I'll definitely be back - thank you for dinner! The food was delicious! read more

Came here on a late Friday night. Only a few other groups so we were seated right away. Nice place with a clean look and feel. Menu had a good amount of choices and our waitress was quick on taking our order. Our orders came out pretty quick and everything looked and tasted great. Sushi was presented nicely and tasted refreshingly delicious. Didn't expect to have such a nice meal at a "hole in the wall" located in a strip mall lol. Great bang for you buck! read more

Sushi Island - Maui Roll, Tuna Nigiri, Spicy Tuna Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Absolutely the best sushi I have ever had. My experience here was phenomenal, from the atmosphere to the hospitality, and the food was just amazing! Coming in was nice because no one was there and we got to know the owner Kay a little more. She is the most sweetest & funniest person! You can tell she is very passionate about what she presents in her kitchen. We started off with two appetizers, miso soup and spicy garlic edamame. The miso soup had the nice hint of fish flavor but the flavor of the miso was so good and the small bits of tofu and green onion was a nice touch. The spicy garlic edamame had really good flavor and the spiciness was spot on! I can only say it may need a bit of less salt but overall it was really good! Now to the sushi! We ordered the spicy salmon roll, tuna & salmon nigiri, and the bonsai roll. I cannot express the level of freshness that was presented in each dish. The salmon roll took me by surprise. I was shocked on how flavorful this roll was. It had a beautiful Smokey salmon flavor that had that fresh salmon texture that melts in your mouth. I usually eat sushi with eel sauce but this was the first time I didn't want to eat sushi without any side sauce. It was amazing on its own. The tuna & salmon nigiri was amazing for my husband. He was impressed with the presentation of each roll and noticed how finely cut each one was displayed. The small details that the chef made, you can tell how experienced he is in his craft. The bonsai roll was..... left me speechless. One of the best rolls I have ever had. I have tried many sushi rolls in my life but this specific roll. It's a must try is all I can say. My taste buds went off the charts for this roll. For an entree, I decided to go with the salmon teriyaki. The presentation and the crisp of the salmon & skin was hands down perfect. I don't usually like salmon skin but this was the first time I ever actually enjoyed it by itself. I honestly have so much good things to say about this place and I'm so happy Kay took the time to express her passion with my husband & I. She gave us a little gift of macaroons to take home. We ate it on the way home and let's just say Kay will probably get a call from my husband for a box of macaroons! Overall I'm so happy we decided to come here. I enjoyed every bite of every dish I had and left with such a memorable experience for my husband & I. We will be back very soon to enjoy more items on the menu. Thank you again Kay for sharing your creativity with us and for caring about the food you bring to each table. read more

DELICIOUS FOOD!!! I've been to a looooot of sushi places and I think I've found my two new favorite rolls here (sunny roll & baked lobster roll). All the seafood tastes fresh and the spicy pork is delicious & tender as well. Everyone enjoyed their food :) Service was great -- very friendly and attentive. It's a small, intimate space that worked just fine for our little family dinner. Highly recommend coming here. read more

We love the food, just do not go after 8 PM; the kitchen closes at around 8:30 PM, and even earlier for fried items

Was lucky to find this little locally-owned sushi spot near me! It's located in a small shopping plaza, and definitely worth a stop! I've been there twice so far (and expecting many more visits in my future!). The fish is so fresh, they provide exceptional customer service, and the prices are legit! Again, it's a new, small, locally-owned sushi spot. But don't be fooled- they have a lot of options for very reasonable prices. Each time I've been, the staff has been extremely welcoming and friendly. And when I find a new spot with great food and amazing service, I tend to make frequent stops because- And let's be real... I love supporting businesses that provide the community good food and service. So if you're in the area and in the mood for a delicious sushi roll, some fresh sashimi, or even just a cold drink and delicious eats with some friends, STOP BY. It's always worth trying out new places!! Thank you, Sushi Island for providing consistently great sushi and service! See you guys again soon...! read more

It was our first time here and honestly it was sooooo good. Definitely recommend the Korean Steak Ramen and the Sunny Roll.

Stopped in this new little sushi spot (per yelp's recommendation for munch). It was quaint, warm and had very attentive service. I ordered the 3 roll combo lunch special: California roll, yellowtail roll and the spicy tuna roll & it came with a bowl of miso soup. Very delicious! Can't wait to come back and bring my sushi-loving kids! read more

My partner and I spotted this new sushi spot and decided to give it a chance. This place definitely out-classes the shopping center- it's clean, modern, and cozy. The staff was friendly and attentive, but most importantly the sushi was excellent. We tried four different rolls and every one of them delighted us. The Sunny Roll and Bonsai Roll are particularly highlights. I will DEFINITELY be coming back here. read more

My family and I came here because of the very high number of 5 star reviews but we were pretty disappointed. The server was difficult to communicate with- she barely answered us. Also be aware that their current menu has incorrect ingredients. One of our rolls was wrong and she said the new menu will be out sometime. She didn't know when or apologize for the mistake and offer to fix it. She brought my 4 year old fried rice but didn't ask what kind and it was chicken with no vegetables and she doesn't eat chicken. There was no one else there but the server barely talked to us. More awkward than anything. The 3 stars are because the 2 rolls I got were good and we could tell they were good quality. They need to improve a lot of things though. I don't understand where all the 5 star reviews came from. Service was a 1 star. I hope they can improve it. read more

This little place is so good. The food is made fresh and with love. Me and my son have gone here a couple of times now and the service and quality is always top notch. It seems to be a family business and they really made the place feel like home it is a really cute and quaint place. Not to mention that when my son went there on Mother's Day to grab some food they sent him home with a dessert and a rose for me. That touch my heart and felt so genuine. They really care about their customers and the quality of the food they are feeding them. This place is a 10 out of 10 for me every time. read more

The food here is Always Fresh and so flavorful. The waitress is always super attentive, friendly and helpful. We met Kay the owner tonight and her story of opening the restaurant and her dedication to ensuring that they Only serve the highest quality sushi is something other restaurants should look to emulate. This our only place we go to for sushi. We get the Unagi Eel always Spicy garlic edamame Miso soup Spider roll. Then we like to try new rolls every time we go. The avocado salad is Spectacular. read more
