We have been here twice in a few weeks because this is our new favorite Sushi restaurant…read more The restaurant is clean and has a simple style. The staff are very friendly. The amount of sushi you get compared to cost makes it very affordable. The plating is amazing as you can see in the photos. We opted for the combos which come with several pieces of sushi and some come with sashimi as well and rolls. The cuts of sushi were large and fresh. There was wasabi and ginger if you enjoy those. The rolls were creative and delicious. Our favorite was Ni Bistro roll followed by the Emerald. The sushi"wich" was very creative and looked like a sandwich. The Ni Bistro was full of flavor and had a lot of pieces. Overall, we highly recommend this new find on the Northwest side!

Surprisingly bad. I ordered the chicken and pineapple fried rice and a spicy tuna roll…read more Both were the worst I've had. The spicy tuna roll was especially strange - it had no flavor. I didn't know what I was eating. Eventually I could pick up some spiciness, but it was subtle. It was so bland and mushy, I wasn't even sure I was eating tuna. At one point I pulled a piece of the roll apart to take a closer look. I couldn't tell if it was tuna or not - I assume they use some kind of filler ingredients in addition to tuna (maybe that's normal for spicy tuna rolls, but they normally taste much better than this). The fried rice was the worst I've had, though still edible. The pineapple was strange in that it didn't taste like pineapple - I guess it wasn't ripe yet. So no pineapple flavor in the pineapple fried rice. Beyond that, the dish was bland. The unfortunate reality is that Tucson has low standards for Asian food, and shockingly bad places can stick around for years. Some of you remember Yokohama Rice Bowl, a local fast food chain, which was awful, and immediately displaced when Panda Express arrived, which is 10x better... It's too bad that Ni's isn't trying to do something great.

Grain River Asian Bistro just blew every Vietnamese spot in the area out of the water. This place…read moreis the real deal--authentic, amazing, and honestly my new go-to when I'm craving something cozy and flavorful. The service was warm and attentive, and the pho... listen. It might just be the best pho in Tucson. The broth is rich, aromatic, and layered in a way that only true Vietnamese cooking can deliver. I also love how many veggie-forward options they offer, making it super easy to dine here no matter your preferences. And the desserts? They carry several traditional Vietnamese sweets you rarely find in the States anymore--such a special treat and a total standout. If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese cuisine that actually hits, Grain River is it. A must-try.

After probably more than a dozen meals there, I've never been disappointed in the quality of the food or the service. It has a "no-nonsense" interior that suits the purpose just fine. I drive 17 miles each way to eat there if I'm not in the area for other reasons. I almost hesitate to recommend the place so it doesn't become popular to the point that seating becomes more of an issue. Smile here.

Old school Chinese diner. Not fancy, but def fast…read more Not sure if the economy is causing a drop in food quality or if there have been changes in recipes or cooks but it has been noticeable. The dish that used to be my go to was the ginger chicken, but the chicken quality is noticeably less tender, on the stringy side. So I switched to order other dishes like their tofu dishes or an occasional Mongolian meat dish. Again, the meat & sauce similarities (hard to tell them apart) are noticeable. It's still a decent place for a fast meal or easy takeout but I find myself looking elsewhere for Chinese food. Their fried rice was always basic, but now it's like it got hit with some soy sauce & little else Prices have gotten a bit higher (like they do :) though they're still cheaper than many) but quality has gone down a notch or more. Not saying I'll never be back, but it's not on my bi weekly dont wanna cook lets eat out rotation. Oh well.

First time at Asian Buffett on request of friend who loves seafood …read more There were stations & stations of many food choices even had pizza! The restaurant very large ,clean ,bright , newer modern looking with colorful tile & Asian murals . Although a little early for me , filled my first plate with salmon , crab , shrimp , escargot , even tried a frog leg ( "tastes like chicken" jk) . Big fresh sushi bar , several soups tried hot & sour, & many veggie's too. Back for fruit & a few deserts . So much food , so many choices ; however I must say I felt satisfied that it was light , mostly healthy & a good value for 22$ ( 18$ m-th kids much les$ ) with all that seafood . The Buffett completely staff with people continually offering help picking up plates & friendly banter . river rd w of stone s side

Then menu alone was huge-maybe about 15-20 pages. So you have PLENTY of options. Since it was morning, I tried the traditional breakfast. Nothing too surprising but I though it was a bit on the greasy side. Other than that service was great and seems to be the local's favorite place to eat in town. The cooks were friendly as they waved goodbye as we left.

Plenty of seating including an enclosed patio. Bottomless drinks were replenished quickly. Food was pretty decent overall. Eric brought out a complimentary desert for my mom. CONS- There's no valet service on the weekend, parking is limited. I asked if I can bring a small cake and was told they can't hold it in the kitchen only behind the host stand. You only get one flavor of the bottomless margaritas you can't switch flavors. The bathroom stalls have frosted doors with only about 85% privacy, check out my pic for reference. We loved everything but the pomegranate guacamole needed some salt. The Açaí was liquidity. The Wagyu & eggs were good, small meat portion but it was filling after all the shared plates. FYI- you can't take any food home so eat up :) Shout out to our server Eric he was fantastic!

Wanted some sushi and saw that Google had good reviews for this place so we decided to drop in…read more It's located off a busy street and parking is tight and only one way entry. Wasn't busy at all so we were seated and able to order quite quickly. We ordered the caterpillar and especial rolls. Each came with miso soup. Their three TVs in close proximity kept us entertained while we waited. Our server was also attentive of us. Everything was delicious. I liked how they had the extra sides on the plates that I wouldn't see at other traditional sushi restaurants; scallions, jalapeños, and krab. The especial pieces were about 2.5 times the size of normal rolls as well. Definitely recommend this place.

They were both not too rich was awesome and they are able to make substitutions or exclusions if you ask. They have chili oil and all the yummy enhancements at the tables. The service was spotty. The layout makes it unclear if you order at the front or if you wait at your table. It is also unclear where to sit and if they will come check on you besides when they bring out the food. The ambiance had nothing special. It was a comfortable restaurant but there was no special music, anything special about the menus, tables, etc. Great little place to run in for a bite.

If New Asian Fusion could be described in one word, it would be: Solid!…read more New Asian Fusion is a hole in the wall joint, that isn't crazy on the interior. It screams local instead of chain, differing itself from an all too familiar sting of the Gilbert area. Place is clean, staff is nice from the small interaction I had with them. Now the food...I ordered the Chicken Chow Mein to go mind you. In less than 10 minutes I was out the door with a steaming hot container of fresh chow mein. The taste was good, not overbearing like some chow mein places, also not bland. The star of the show are the noodles, thick, meaty, and bearers of flavor. Overall I give New Asian Fusion a 4/5. Prices are fair, food is good and filling, staff is cool as well!
