Amazing sushi, geisha roll is amazing and most of the food there is off the charts, but more than anything the owner and people working there are super nice. And we love that! read more

New to Gilbert and just tried Sushiya- it was delicious!!! Will definitely be returning.

Walked in...walked out... We walked in and the hostess was talking to her friend. He mumbled something to us..not sure if it meant i'll be there..or take a seat...either way...after her friend left, she looked at us from across the room and she yelled across the room "I said any seat" with some nasty manor isms. We just left... They lost our business, i'm sure their sushi is awesome, but I enjoy a good experience as well. Overall: If you like being treated like scum, this is the place for you. read more

This place is always amazing. Great value and even better sushi. Hands down the best place you can go to have dinner. The employees are great, the sushi is always fresh and I've never had a single bad experience here. Very clean, a very nice atmosphere and it's always a joy to come. Definitely give it a try if you haven't already read more

Great Happy Hour rolls! We love this neighborhood sushi bar! With its beautiful contemporary decor, tt is by far our favorite place to endulge in sashimi. My favorite is the Poke Bowl! It is full of sashimi and seaweed salad. We've also had the salmon, shrimp, ahi and crab rolls. Hubby had his $1 beer and $4 Melontini for me! Little cutie pie didn't care too much for the udon veggies, so we'll stick to salmon roll for him. read more

Been going here for over 7 years. The service was great when the owner does not get involved. As of late. The quality of the food has gone down hill fast. Jason and Nick (when he still worked there ) are some of the best sushi chefs I have had. Since Nicks leaving Jason is the only experienced one there. The new sushi rollers there now need to look for other employment in other lines of work. Take out in the last two weeks has been very disappointing. Have to seek out other sushi restaurant. Sad. read more

Literally just left this place. Needless to say it was a major disappointment. The reviews were fairly good so we decided to try it out. The food came out piece by piece. Overall the food was okay, but the service was terrible. There were 6 people in our group so we ordered a lot both from the happy hour and regular menu. They did not check on us once after our food came. Not once. It's is Monday afternoon with only about 5 tables full and they couldn't manage to check on us once. Same drink from beginning to end. Good luck with this place. I'll never go back. read more

Been going here for a few years. Always first rate service and the food is outstanding. You will not be disappointed. They really go out of their way to make your experience a positive one. Don't be deceived by the American Itamae behind the sushi bar. They have found a way to get the freshest sushi shipped daily to this little dive and they are expert craftsmen. Start with a King Crab soup and/or Vegetable tempura. The Geisha roll is my favorite. I also enjoy the ASU roll or Jalapeño roll. Not a sushi lover? Try the honey chicken & rice dinner. It's amazing! Never had a bad thing here! read more

This place has great sushi. It's walking distance to my house so we've been there a bunch of times and always have a great experience. It's common for the chef to make you a cool little dessert for free especially if you sit at the bar. The owners are very friendly. I dig the Saki bomber Thursday special but it can be dangerous crossing Gilbert road after a couple of those bad boys. read more

I've been coming here since it opened and I will go no other place for sushi! Sung, the owner, runs a great business and is very personable with all his customers. Staff is awesome and of course the sushi is amazing!! Prices are great as well! Support your small, local, family owned businesses! read more

Sushiya Sushi - Scallion sashimi extra spicy and extra jalapeños. Arizona roll is amazing! - Japanese Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

I've probably ordered more spicy tuna from Sushiya than any 3 people combined. I'd put them in the top 3 sushi spots in the entire metro. The taste is spot on. Caveat for anyone using delivery services: They put the fish on top of the roll instead of inside as a way to save time. It's more similar to nigiri than a sushi roll at that point. Honestly, it weirds me out. read more

Not overly impressed with the sushi here. It wasn't bad, but it just lacked somewhat in overall taste and freshness. I did enjoy the happy hour menu and prices. The service was good and we enjoyed the atmosphere. This place is worth the happy hour prices if you're In the area, but there's far better sushi in the valley if not! read more

First off, I have NEVER written a bad review, I am very laid back when it comes to customer service because I have been a server for 3 years. I am a regular here but after my last trip , I will not be back- or atleast not on a MONDAY night because the server told us that's the only night she works there. I understand it is a small - extremely UNDERSTAFFED restaurant but our last order was forgotten TWICE and our server did not acknowledge us at all and acted like every customer in the restaurant was a complete burden. She did not smile one time. Being a server myself, I can not imagine acting that way towards a customer! - Like everyone has said - the service is HORRIFIC, would be a great place if they hired some people who were fit to serve a table with a even remotely decent attitude. Its sad that they aren't able to get a decent staff and I am sure they have lost a TON of business because of it. Positives: very clean establishment, great sushi, AWESOME prices and the owners are friendly and nice people. Advice for the owners- PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THE ATTITUDE OF YOUR STAFF, its make a HUGE difference. read more

I'm a sushi nut ! I've had it for lunch and dinner before while living in the NY&NJ area. I don't normally stray from my regular sushi haunts but decided to give this place a try this evening. It is only bout 1/4 mile from my home and I've passed it by probably 100 times. I got there at 5.40pm and the place was busy. The sushi bar was quick and the wait staff were on their toes as far as service. The portions of fish were incredibly large. I'm not sure I've seen portions and a selection of rolls etc like this before. Forget the Ra Sushi's and even Kona Grill where service isn't really what it used to be. Go with the Mom&Pop local places. Very well done! This coming from a sushi nut and someone who's been in the restaurant business for over 20 years. read more

Dined in tonight for the first time since pre-COVID and was very impressed. Decorative dividers separate the spaced apart tables, which also makes dinner feel more private. Our table was freshly cleaned with hand sanitizer on it when we were seated. Soy sauce was provided in a plastic ramekin with a lid for single use. Friendly service and great happy hour sushi! read more

Their poke is a must try. Great portions and taste. I also had their Geisha roll which was great. It comes out warm because it is torched. The Salmon Volcano roll is also great to try. It was something different from before. The salmon is baked with masago fish eggs on top with spicy mayo I believe. It was one of my favorites. Their nigiris are a bit on the bigger size. The fish pieces are huge, but so are the rice. It fills you up. read more

Wonderful sushi here. They've got a wide selection along with some very good desserts. Saul was very nice to us as well. Great place, I'll definitely be back. read more

Amazing food made by some seriously talented sushi Chefs! A wonderful neighborhood restaurant with good prices! Highly recommend read more

I've been here twice this week and I plan on returning often. The sushi is the best value I've ever seen. Not only is it presented beautifully, it is really good and very reasonably priced. The miso soup is thick and the edamame is boiled to perfection. This place is relatively close to my work, so I'm planning on going in for lunch often. It hasn't been very busy at all either time I went in. I'm happy with the quick seating and service, but I hope they get enough customers to stay open. The owner is incredibly nice and has thrown in a free fruit plate dessert both times I went in. I highly recommend this place. Maybe I'll see you there! read more

Just dined here tonight for Mothers Day. I'm from NJ and accustomed to having good to very good food at almost any establishment. Having been in AZ for 2 years, I can literally count on one hand the number of quality restaurants I've found. Once again I was fooled by the ratings; the sushi was supermarket -quality at best and although the server was nice, she came once and only once the entire time. Same drink beginning to end. Dishes came out one by one. The bottled Asahi was the highlight and I could have saved myself 70 bucks and picked one up at Bashas. One and done. read more

Great sushi place! The staff is very friendly. Sushi is very fresh and cut very clean. Rolls are fantastic as well. The spicy tuna and Arizona roll are the best. The happy hour prices are very nice as well. Give this place a shot. You will not be disappointed. read more

I used to frequent this place before Covid and we went back tonight and I was just disappointed. The service was horrible. We were with another couple and they ate all of their food before we even got one roll of ours. Our table was never cleared unless we asked if they could take some of the stuff away. When we first sat down, we waited for about 15 minutes before anyone came to our table to take our drink order, which I never received what I ordered. We were given and charged for a roll we didn't even order. The food is excellent but the service was horrible. read more

We recently moved to Gilbert, AZ and it has been difficult finding good sushi. I've been to Sushiya Sushi several times now and the experience has been great every time. The fish is fresh and the portions are good. Sit at the bar and if you're lucky you will have Nicholas be your sushi chef. Nicholas enjoys his job and if you tell him of something you had elsewhere he will do his best to duplicate it. Try the Phoenix Roll : Spicy Salmon, Cream Cheese, Avocado, crab, Masago, Deep fried, it's delicious! $8.50 Another good one is Geisha Roll : Shrimp Tempura, Spicy Tuna, Crab Mix Inside. Tuna, Salmon, Yellow tail, White Fish on Top. Spicy Wasabi Mayo Sauce, and Sliced Onion on Top. Torched. $12.00 You can't go wrong with anything you order. They offer cooked food, kids menu, beer, wine and sake. The prices are fair and the staff & owners are friendly. A good dining experience. They are open on Sundays which in California you could never find a sushi restaurant open on Sundays. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE EVERY FRIDAY FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS! I order Blue fin tuna & my Trav orders Baked green mussels, Yellow fin Kama & Tuna tataki. ALWAYS AMAZING! Sushi Master Chefs Sung, Jason, Nick, D.J are so talented, the quality is better than anywhere you will go and by far the best prices! The key is to get here before 6pm or after 8pm on Fridays...but it's worth the wait regardless! read more

I'm trying out as many sushi place while I'm in Arizona. Sushiya would be my second spot I've try after RA sushi. I think the price is great not very expensive. Fish are cut a bit thick. Sashimi are usually cut 1/4 in thickness. The platting isn't eye catching just simple. (see pictures I uploaded) I wouldn't say ill never come back, but its not my top choice. read more

**This restaurant is seriously following protocol and sooo clean! Masks, distancing and reduced capacity. Support a local small business and come in! You won't be disappointed. Oh! Did I mention the sushi and service are phenomenal too?!?!** read more

This was a lovey little restaurant with a surprisingly good sushi roll lunch special. And a really good tempura udon that was heavy on the shiitake flavor which was awesome. All the staff were really attentive and helpful. I really enjoyed trying Sushiya and will be back. read more

I don't exactly have an expert palette when it comes to sushi. I stick to the basics and seek out cheap happy hours. Sushiya definitely impressed me, and I think even sushi snobs would agree. The restaurant setting was clean, but mostly unremarkable. One chef worked away behind the sushi bar. We got there for happy hour which was fantastic. Salmon nigiri was a steal for only $2.50. The fish cuts were long and thin, and the fish was moist and seemed fresh. Ditto for the yellowtail nigiri ($4, not on happy hour). Even the rice had a good flavor/texture. I really enjoyed the killer roll (eel roll w/ salmon on top), which was good value at $6.50 on happy hour. There was a thick menu of very unique combination rolls that were artistically prepared. For instance, the caterpillar roll has carrot eyes and sprout antennae. Like I said, I usually keep it basic, but I'm looking forward to branching out my sushi experiences at Sushiya. Full disclosure: The $1 edamame was good (I liked the sea salt), but the California roll was only OK. They have specials which run during football games. I'll keep that in mind for 2011. read more

We really like this place. We've been many times. This review is overdue. It is a small place so it is often at full capacity, so don't be surprised if you have a little wait. But you'll be happy you did. Omg! Don't usually have room for dessert, but it was our anniversary so we took the chocolate coconut creme brulee to go. Omg, what a treat, it was hard to share. SS, please make that one a keeper - so good and GF. Yum read more

Sushi was great! Tried 4 different rolls Phoenix roll-8 Arizona roll- 8 pile of crab on top was great Spicy Tuna roll- tons of tuna on top Jalapeño roll-9 delicious and first to be finished We would most def come again! Service wasn't super friendly but attentive so for that I took away a star read more

Smaller sushi restaurant. Food was ok, not great. Service was good. Wobbly and sticky tables. Not sure it was worth the 20 minute wait for us. Didn't understand why they wouldn't allow more than 2 people at the sushi bar. There was plenty of space but servers used most of the bar to lay out their guest checks. There are other restaurants in the area that offer a better overall dining experience. read more

Since I began to come here, the food is always delicious and the fish is fresh! If you want to try a very taste, ask for the Volcano roll. I'm telling you: it's amazing! The young waitress was so sympathetic and kind, same as the sushi men. read more

WTF, my favorite sushi place is in Gilbert?!?!?! It's true, I saw a coupon so I checked out the reviews and decided to give it a try with a couple of friends. It was fairly quiet when we got there around 6:30pm on a Saturday but that didn't last long, it was packed just after 7. We got a large variety of rolls and sushi and we enjoyed it all. They have the usuals there and a few signature rolls that we really liked. The fish was fresh tasting and we thought the rolls were nicely sized, well prepared and had a nice presentation. I can't resist unagi and it was very tasty there. We all agreed the green mussels are awesome, luv the tangy sauce! Our last visit included non-sushi eaters and they enjoyed their entrees, it looked like they had plenty of fresh veggies and weren't sauced to death. We even got them to try a couple of the less scary rolls and a little taste of sushi and other than the scaredy cat look on their faces they said it was pretty good. I'm not a sushi samurai, I didn't train at the SCI or anything, but its the tastiest of the handful of places I've tried - in the valley. I don't think they're trying to be another place that rhymes with ma, just a nice local joint with good food & fair prices. read more

I've been here numerous times in the past few years. After the first 2 times, I swore I would not be back. But after a couple years, I gave them another chance. I am pretty much here weekly now. The food is amazing. The service is superb. I don't go anywhere else now. read more

They changed the wait staff. From the little blonde white girls to little Asian girls that are MUCH WORSE. By far the worst service at any Restaurant you will find in Gilbert. Especially if you go at anytime where more than 4 tables are taken up. No more special desserts, no more hellos from the owner, no more great sushi, they apparently lost their good Sushi Chef and the two guys working back there now are just too inconsistent. Sometimes you will get a decent roll but this last time, the Sushi was just falling apart all over the place. Fried Vegas rolls, COLD. miso Soup flavorless, Bathroom and Hallways Disgusting. BAD BAD BAD. After coming here for 2yrs and probably 12x, we are done. read more

Great sushi and awesome service. Extremely fresh food. Definitely our go-to dinner spot for sushi, and all Japanese food. Highly recommend.
