Had a great sushi night at Sushi San and would recommend to check it out. We came on a Saturday evening for a party of 5. They have friendly and attentive staff. The restaurant feels so welcoming and cozy. We were able to eat good food, talk, laugh and enjoying our evening. We ordered a variety of sushi, edamame, teriyaki chicken, mango suju, and a sake bomber. They offer non-sushi options which is a plus if you have peeps that enjoy other food items. We are very appreciative of the complimentary miso soup and roll. My most favorite roll was the Alaska Roll then the Phx Roll, Golden California Roll and Las Vegas Roll. The photo wall is super cool and my mom was in love the beautiful plants in the front! read more

First thing I want to say is this place is a super cozy place and cute with all the photos on the wall and decor.Definitely a place for a date night or just to have a drink with family and friends casually.The sushi menu has so many options taste fresh! The cook gave us a sushi roll to try which was super nice of him. Next time I will try their dessert. New favorite sushi spot! read more

I literally come here almost every two weeks. I found this family owned sushi restaurant during Covid. They are so sweet. The sushi is a great price and it is so so soooo yummy. I have come here for both dining in and pick up. The service is always great. Literally has become my favorite sushi spot in all of Phoenix. I also have convinced a few other friends that this needs to be their favorite sushi spot as well. I get the number 19 roll simple but delicious. I've tried a bunch of other rolls, but this is my favorite. This place is a 10 out of 10 highly recommend amazing sushi. Yum Yum Yum. read more

Quiet, low light, clean . Generous and helpful staff. The Cherry Bomb was the bomb. I could eat that every day. Worth the trip and is now my go to place. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. I lived in California and Oregon, had wonderful sashimi in BC , Canada and was not keen on sushi in the desert, but this little gem proved me wrong. read more

First of all, amazing sushi. Second, amazing staff. Overall, best sushi spot in Az. Can not go wrong.

Susie was absolutely amazing super friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience great from start to finish. The ice cream was incredible, especially the mochi ice cream fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. You can really tell there's pride and care in both the service and the product. Highly recommend stopping by and supporting them. We'll definitely be back! read more

Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Quaint family owned place, and the ambiance created with the lights and decor is super cute! The family is more reserved and quiet, so it makes me disappointed to see negative things said about the service. The quaintness and quietness is part of the experience i go at least once a month and the family and food have always been wonderful, even giving us extra food items just because! If you a Karen who's easily irritated do not come and ruin it for all of us happy normal citizens read more

I love this place, I have been coming here for years and love to bring people to show them. Amazing sushi, fresh and creative, great miso soup and sometimes they give sliced fruit as dessert which is always a nice surprise! Only sushi place I like to come to and trust. Thank you! read more

Amazing - the sushi and spicy beef entree were remarkable! Will definitely be back. We got the Maria and Las Vegas rolls

Took my parents here after they were away on vacation for a month. This restaurant has been around for a long time. I have eaten here once or twice before and that night the sushi rolls were all very good. They also bring us one roll for free but didn't say why. We appreciated that either way and finished everything! I hope they keep up the food and service! read more

Great little family restaurant. The hustle is always there and the work ethic is strong. Food is also delicious.

I came for soup after going to the dentist. The staff is incredibly professional, super nice. They are so personable and attentive. On top of that, soup was amazing. You can tell how much pride they take by the taste of the food. Wonderful atmosphere, very clean, great music, big portions. read more

Even though i did not have any fish service and food is excellent make sure you pair with ginger, soy sauce, and wasabi though because it makes it 10X Better definitely trying the desert read more

Fantastic sushi at a reasonable price. Very friendly and hardworking staff that are highly experienced in crafting sushi. Pleasant place to sit down inside of! Bring your friends and family for a great dinner! read more

I had dinner here for the first time and it was the absolute best sushi I've ever had, and I've been eating sushi for 45 years! I highly recommend the ASU, the Cherry Blossom and Flash rolls! While I enjoyed watching scenes of the sea on a tv behind the bar, the food is the big attraction here. And I can't praise the service high enough. The service staff were friendly, helpful and gracious. I wish I weren't visiting from out of state or else I would go back there next week. And one last thing, the prices were more than reasonable. I can't recommend Sushi San enough. read more

Got here at 9:03pm after driving 15 minutes across town since their hours online and posted on the building say 10pm, just to be told they weren't serving anyone else. It was not busy, they just said they already did last call. Then close at 9 or at least 9:30 read more

Decided to give Sushi San a try on a Saturday afternoon around 3 pm. Definitely not a super popular dining time, as the restaurant wasn't too busy. I wish I had remembered to take a photo of the interior since it is comfortable and cute. All of our rolls were very solid and the quality of fish seemed decent as well. The prices were fair as well. The menu is extensive and there are more specials written on chalkboard on the walls (but to be honest are a bit hard to read). I would consider this a middle tier sushi restaurant where you're willing to pay a bit more for better quality fish (as opposed to an AYCE spot), but it's definitely not one of the more expensive upscale sushi spots. For me this will be a new go-to casual date night spot! Service was attentive and we had no issues at all. I will definitely be returning to try some of the other menu items! read more

I have been coming here for at least 10 years. This is a nice family restaurant, they have high chairs for babies, they do group photos on birthdays, which they post on the wall, you can buy chopsticks, which they clean so you can reuse them (mine are metal). There is a nice mellow atmosphere and they make you feel welcome. I bring my family and friends there because of that. What it is NOT is a fancy $$$$ celebrity chef restaurant that you have to get reservations 6 months in advance. It is our go-to place, the prices are reasonable, the food is good, mostly standard faire (maki, sashimi, nigiri, chirshai, bento boxes, etc). They don't usually have exotic ingredients (oysters, uni, toro, etc) on hand, but they will special order anything you want, you just have wait for it. I've seen some complaints here about service, I have never experienced poor or rude service there, in fact just last night we were laughing with the waitress about shrimp heads! In conclusion, there are a million sushi restaurants around here, if you want to spend a lot of money and say you've had the best of the best, and try to impress your snooty friends from Scottsdale, this is not the place for you. If you want a casual dining experience with decent prices and food, this place hits the mark! read more

I live close to this place, came here 10 days ago and ordered to go. Food was great and the bar looked inviting. I was told the restaurant closed at 10:00 pm at that time. Same thing for the website. I come in tonight at 8:50 by myself and have not been treated worse in quite a while. They would get a 1 but to be fair the food is good. However, as long as the guy with the shaved head on the sides and pony tail owns or manages this place, I nor my family will be back. read more

We have gone to Sushi San for years - it is a favorite of ours. From the food to the service, it is always a treat. I love their Spicy Mountain, Cherry Bomb, Spring Roll, and Shogun. They have rolls you don't find anywhere else!! read more

Worth every penny. I don't like sushi, but my sister loves it, so we went to Sushi San together. I ate the egg rolls and dumplings. Both were amazing. I usually feel like I'm eating an afterthought when I order a non-sushi meal at a sushi restaurant, but both of my dishes were delicious. My sister enjoyed her sushi. She originally thought two plates would be too much food, but after trying them, she had no problem eating every roll. The only reason I didn't give 5 out of 5 is that the ordering process is a little awkward (especially if you have a personality like me where you feel anxious ordering at restaurants). We were handed a paper and asked to fill it out with our order. Not all of the options on the menu were on the paper. I am pretty sure they told us what to do with the paper when we were done, but we couldn't hear them in the noise of the restaurant, and spent some time debating who, if anyone, we should approach to find out. read more

I came here for lunch and ordered the sashimi. What a joke--you get sashimi that is about twice the size of a scrabble letter. They must cater to regulars and forget about attracting new customers. There were no other customers, except our table, and I don't know how they survive. I won't be back. read more

The quality of the sushi here was laughable. Got seaweed salad, fried tofu, spicy salmon roll, rocky roll, and McQueen roll. The spicy tuna was goopy. The salmon was so fishy. The rolls were majorly made up of rice. The seaweed salad was the size of half of a fist, but cost $7, the most expensive I've ever seen it. The rolls were bland and didn't even taste like sushi. The tofu was tasteless (how do you mess up fried tofu?). Overall, was so overpriced for what you're getting. Not worth the drive for me. read more

Sushi San - Does this look like $55 worth of food? - Japanese Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Food was ok. Sushi seemed fresh but their cuts were thin. Don't skimp on the sashimi cuts !! Also it took a while for our rolls to arrive. Our server was friendly and attentive. The place could definitely accommodate lots of people but it's never full. read more

Okay okay, let's just say it... I will be coming back Now when you step in, it's not the newest or the most appealing to the eye, maybe a little cluttered with decor on the wall... but trust me! These chefs here are seeping with sushi talent! I could really tell this place is family business that builds a family with their customers. From the reviews I was checking out, it looks like a lot of people who come here are regulars. I can tell you, I'll be a regular here too! Now the service here is wonderful, the woman who was out waiter made sure we understood the menu and was very good at making us feel welcomed, the food also came out very fast! There were so many options for sushi rolls and food to choose from! But I came here for the sushi and so I picked a few rolls that fit my taste. Now each of the rolls had been stuffed with a great amount of fish... this was crazy to me because the price is soo affordable! This has to be the most affordable location I've seen in AZ! Especially for the quality and taste, I am amazed! Side note, miso soup also comes with everything so... even better! Honestly, I don't have any complaints, I love sushi that's affordable and tastes great, so thank you staff, you all are doing great! I definitely will be back with more sushi lovers! read more

Delicious rolls and amazing service each time. This place is my favorite sushi place in chandler. They offer unique specialty rolls that are pretty delicious tasting. The service is great as well, the owners are super nice and friendly! read more

Ordered a variety of rolls, sushi and sashimi, seaweed salad and I think that was it! They added an extra roll for free- score! But overall was just ok sushi. I tried the island roll- really liked that but besides that one, were just ok (how is, crazy horse, and 911) The rice didn't stick well so all the rolls fell apart when going to dip in the soy sauce. Maybe if it were easier to eat, might have been better but it was frustrating they all fell apart. Going to continue searching for other options for go-to sushi. Price was decent though. read more

I stubbled across this place one day because I was in the area and it is now my new favorite sushi place!! Sushi tasted fresh, this spot is a must try read more

I have never experienced service like this before. Terrible, waited 15 min for a table in an empty restaurant, ordered right away and took over 30 min before we even got our soup and it took over an hour before our first roll came out. We only waited because the reviews were so good, figured it must have been a bad night. A fluke even. WORST SUSHI, pretty sure they put mayo in the rice? It was yellow and tangy? We eat sushi and Asian style foods 3-5 times a week and never had rice with a nice yellow cream holding it together. Couldn't stomach the avocado roll because it was tangy... yuck. We left sushi on the table, we are two BIG eaters. We never leave sushi no matter how meh the rolls are. And we couldn't stomach anymore. I'm not sure how anyone has eaten here and recommends it? Hoping it used to be great and now has gone downhill? We waited so long for our food we couldn't go eat at another restaurant on a Monday night, everything was closed. :( read more

Sushi San is our go-to sushi place in the East Valley. We have tried a good amount of the other sushi restaurants in the area, and when it comes to sushi, there are a few things I look for. Two of them being consistency and quality. Sushi San's quality is very consistent, and a roll you order on one visit will taste and look the same the next time you visit. There's no variance in what it comes with, and the taste is always great. With sushi, I feel like you can quickly tell if the quality is good. Just by smelling or its appearance, you can tell how they store the fish and care for it. We have yet to visit Sushi San, and the quality is poor. Many times we have visited other restaurants in the East Valley, and on the first visit, it is messy or the fish is going bad. There's always parking available out front, and it's right after the Goodwill and a martial arts studio. I believe Sushi San is family run and they all work hard. Calling in orders is also a very easy process. It's never a long wait, and they provide soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger. Some of our favorites are the Arizona Roll and the Tiger Roll. These are fancier versions of spicy tuna rolls and California rolls. read more

Top rated sushi place in town by far and here's why- They have an A rating from the health department EVERY time they get rated. WHAM. to me that is enough said for a damn sushi place! But if you need more ;) Family owned and operated by a wonderful family whom is top notch and gives great service. I have never been disappointed when I've come here year after year (after so many years now!!) Try them out they have great rolls my favorite is the a.s.u. but, take a look at my pics. . .I've liked them all ;) read more

My boyfriend and I come every week religiously. This restaurant is fantastic. An extensive sushi menu and friendly, fast service. We always get treated like family whether we are dining in or taking out. I would recommend the tempura vegetables for a starter. As far as rolls go I love a basic fried roll so I get the golden cali. Then we always order 2-3 I Love Salmon rolls, I love that it's topped with thinly sliced lemon. It's the perfect combination of lemon and salmon. I could eat here everyday if I lived closer. We drive over 20 miles to eat here. Always worth it. read more

My favorite sushi place. The food is always fresh and great, never disappoints. The staff is very welcoming and polite.

This place is a gem. Regardless of the other reviews. The regulars know exactly what to expect when they come. If service is taking too long, you can always walk up to the counter and ask for what you need. No harm, no foul. We came in for dinner. It was a toss up between tacos or sushi and I'm so glad we decided on sushi. I have been coming here on and off for the last 7 years and every single time, I'm never disappointed. Side note, ask for fresh wasabi if your sinuses can handle it. It's exactly like taking a bite of horseradish We ordered: Fried soft shell crab Rocky roll Mountain roll I originally wanted to order the sushi bento box however, they don't offer it Friday- Sunday. Miso soup came and it was still piping hot, flavorful and light. App: Fried soft shell crab was crispy, not greasy and had a good amount of meat. Entrees: Rolls.... Mountain- explains itself, very filling and for tuna and salmon lovers for sure. Cali roll on the bottom and heaping piles of fresh fish on top. Rocky- had spicy tuna and salmon and tuna on the outside. The perfect balance. We received a spicy tuna roll on the house and we had to fight internally to not devour all of it in one sitting. Every single menu item received was fresh, no smell or off taste. Dessert: Watermelon. They will always offer some type of refreshing fruit to end the meal when you dine in and that is what makes this place memorable. We can't wait to make this place our regular sushi spot again despite living in Scottsdale... we are dying to get chopsticks with our name for the wall. Thank you for an amazing dinner!!! read more
