What an awesome experience I had today at this Tokyo Joe's. I've eaten here before because my wife loves it but I wasn't thrilled about it. I found it kinda bland and boring. But that was only until their front counter host, Mariano, hooked me up. I told him my dilemma and he was super helpful, upbeat, knowledgeable, and kind. He listened to what Ibsaid and suggested the most amazing bowl I've ever had. And it was ALL his recommendations. I had the teriyaki bowl but added green dragon sauce, spicy teriyaki sauce, green onion, a scrambled egg, chili flakes, and avocado. HOLY Flavor Explosion, Batman! Wow. It was out of this world. I would never have ordered it like this. It was thanks to Mariano. I worked in restaurants for many years, and Employees like him are more valuable than gold. I can't imagine they're paying him well, yet he was enthusiastic and genuine and truly had passion for the food and helping his customers. Mariano single-handedly converted me from not wanting to eat at Tokyo Joe's, to a huge fan of the food- all in a single visit. This guy should be made GM at the very least. Yeah it's a chain, but it's run like a mom-and- pop establishment. It's "healthy" food in that there are no French fries or greasy meals. It's rice-based and is essentially proteins and a TON of mix-ins and sauces. It's well done. All in all, excellent dish, even better customer service. This is how an eatery should operate. Kudos. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 4/5 (your basic modern lunch place.) read more

Another great experience at Tokyo Joe's. Stopped in for lunch and took advantage of a free entrée on my Addict Club rewards account. SCORE! Amazing service as always (there was a bit of a glitch on my account, but they worked together to solve it and all was A-Okay.) I ordered the Thai Noodle Bowl. It was my first time trying it, and I really enjoyed it. It was a bit on the spicy side, which is noted on the menu board and overlooked by me (oops), but I like spicy food. You could probably request that they hold off on the red pepper flakes, or.use a smaller amount. Tasty sauce, veggies, noodles, and 3 kinds of protein. Very filling. I opted for a water cup today, though I normally always enjoy their iced teas. I so appreciate the high level of service I always receive at Tokyo Joe's locations. This one and the Surprise AZ location are my go-to's. Clean restaurant as always, with employees cleaning tables and surfaces. Groovy music tracks were playing in the background. Thank you, Tokyo Joe's, for your consistently outstanding customer experience. read more

Tokyo Joe's - Thai Noodle Bowl... delicious! A bit on the spicy side. Modify the red pepper flakes maybe. I really enjoyed it. 3 kinds of protein. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

This was really convenient for a quick and healthy dinner after a long day. Was staying the night at the Home 2 suites Hilton across the parking lot. Walked over, ordered and took it back to the room. The team was helpful and the food was fresh and delicious !! The inside was clean and nicely decorated. Definitely recommend!! read more

I have previously gone to three different Tokyo Joe's in the past but this is the only location I frequent now. It's the best location in terms of quality of food and service(in my opinion). The workers are always personable and provide great service. They always make my order how I like it because I am sometimes particular. The restaurant is clean and they are quick to clean up tables and dirty dishes after people are finished eating. I like the new menu revamp and tried the new peanut noodle salad. It was quite tasty and refreshing! My go-to is always a chicken bowl or some of their sushi. Everything is made to order which is the best part. I will continue to come back read more

If you want spicey Asian food , look no further !!! This place is SPICEY !!! It didn't disappoint, you can either pick a pre made menu entree or you can build your own meal. I ordered a BBQ BANH MI. This bowl was on fire !!! I mean it was delicious . Ordered a potsticker for an appetizer, they were good, just not my flavor. Great customer service from the employees, we sat outside on a beautiful afternoon and they brought our meal out to us. Would definitely come here again and highly recommend eating here. I would give this place a 4.7 for all around experience. Kudos. read more

We came in on a Sunday evening (12/7/25) when it looked slow. We got our order in right away and had a seat. The order was taking a while but we understood that they may have been short staffed so we didnt feel the need to address it to the manager on duty. Our 8-piece California roll came in and the crab mix tasted off, and salty at times. After we finished the plate, we waited a bit longer and finally the Ramen arrived. The server said "Sorry for the long wait, we are short-handed and we're now out of Chicken". Once I looked at my Ramen, I noticed that there was barely any chicken in it. The chicken looked more like it was there for garnish rather than the main course. The server didn't bring us a spoon or anything to eat the broth, just chop sticks. We got up to get our drinks and the machine was out of Ice... no sign or anything to address that we would have "room temperature" beverages. We left right away, and will no longer be coming back. I just hope management contacts me about this review so I can explain my experience in depth. read more

My favorite restaurant. it's the healthiest restaurant with the best & freshest ingredients

Always super fresh and delicious food, large portions at a moderate price. Sushi is much better than I expected and I always order the 8 piece CA roll so I can have that for dinner later. Great drink selection as well. Service is impeccable, the very nice staff check on you, fake your plates, and provide extra sauce without making you feel like you're stealing. When it's hot outside, the AC in this place hits the spot, very clean dining area, tables always wiped down. Big bonus restrooms are monitored and cleaned regularly. Not a single negative thing to say, highly recommend! read more

I wanted to update my original review after giving this place another try. I ordered online, I didn't see one of the veggies- zucchini-in the bowl. My order was ready as promised, thank you for that. The yellow curry sauce is amazing but is actually moderately spicy, even though it's supposed to be mild. My nose was running by the end of my lunch. I prefer it to their teriyaki. I chose the veggie bowl with brown rice as the base, added the egg, broccoli, pineapple, snap peas, cabbage, carrots, red peppers, zucchini. I also added sweet potato and it was the only veggie I didn't like. The sweet potato didn't have that hearty sweet, sweet potato taste and was almost the consistency of a acorn squash. I wouldn't recommend it as a base. I liked everything about this visit way more than my last. read more

Tokyo Joe's - Veggie bowl with curry sauce, side of chicken. Chicken portions a little tiny. Loved it. But-Some veggies ordered were missing. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

I love their spring rolls! Absolutely delicious and service is great every time, I would definitely recommend. :)

I stumbled upon this place completely randomly...I wanted to like it but I just couldn't. I got a bento with a spicy tuna roll, Salmon poke and the fish tasted so old. The quality was so bad I only could take one bite of the salmon. My bf said the same thing I did it when he tried his poke. The pot stickers were actually really good. The tea was good but when the star of your dish is something you can't even eat... I can't help but I wasted $36 on two bentos. Maybe the chicken is better, but I would be too scared to give this place another try after my experience. One extra star for the service. The cashiers and cooks were very nice. read more

I was excited about this concept and had been wanting to try Tokyo Joe's. I give it a 6/10. Great menu and great variety. I had a create your own bowl and choose White meat Chicken and rice base with teriyaki sauce. I expected the rice to be the Japanese type that is rounder and often called sticky rice and this was not that. The food was fresh and flavorful but I didn't like the quality of the chicken it was more dampish if that makes any sense but oftentimes tempura chicken is dampish so maybe this is the Asian style of cooking chicken. I also got a spring roll. The restaurant is clean and nice and food is fresh and the staff was very nice and the prices were good. Would I go back? Probably not. I prefer "Glaze Teriyaki" which is the same concept and only in New York City. read more

If you were looking for a great meal at a good price, keep looking.... Tried for the first time. Got a teriyaki chicken and a 4 pc Cali roll. The teriyaki sauce was SUUUPER sweet. And pretty much lacking of any teriyaki flavor. Hardly any chicken on the bowl. Good portion of rice. Wasn't what I expected an $8 bowl to be. The Cali roll was flavorless. Cucumber wasn't peeled. No chunk of avocado. Just some brown avocado smear. ZERO flavor. If I didn't drown it in soy and Wasabi, there would be nothing. All in all, I tried it... didn't like it. Won't be back. read more

Tokyo Joe's - Teriyaki chicken bowl with very little chicken. And what was there, tasted like it was boiled chicken. Gross!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

Because of work I'm stuck here in Arizona, I got online looked for a nail place and while I wait I decided to grab a bite to eat. No regrets coming here. I've never ate here before so I asked the cashier for some help. All of his suggestions were on point. The cookie was very impressive. It had a fresh just baked full of flavor. The vegetables were fresh not over cooked. The rice, sushi and Salmon were on point. If ever I'm in the area again I'll know where to go. There is plenty of parking . I bobtailed out here and found a spot for my truck. Yes I highly recommend this place you'll enjoy your meal. Thanks joes sushi and staff. read more

I'm din with TJ. Last time I asked for no corn and there were some corn in my meal. Staff asked how many kernels. WTF? That should have been my last time. Ordered online today and saw kitchen staff scooping rice into dishes with gloves no utensils. When I asked why I was told 'it's easier'. I wouldn't have asked if I didn't see it with my own eyes. Did I still eat my meal with knowledge of this YES because I was hungry as hell. Don't judge. Then they forgot cookie with the Bento Box Meal. I said my grace though. read more

Tokyo Joe's - BYO Bento Box - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

Friday night headed to a concert needed some quick bites! This place was fire!! Very friendly service, and cooks! They made sure we were satisfied. We ordered a poke bowl, spring rolls and California poke roll. It was Delicious, fresh and tasty!! They originally brought out a California roll, but as soon as i took it back to the counter they made it right and fast. The poke bowl was so fresh and so many options to create your own!! Definitely a gem we will be back to for fast sushi without have to do the entire restaurant experience. read more

Came here for lunch cashier was super nice and got my food very fast overall came out really well but got the red dragon sauce instead of spicy Aki. The red dragon wasn't bad but idk suppose to be spicy as well but didn't taste spice to me and had more of a different taste. I also got a spicy tuna and wow did it hit me haha overall not a bad lunch read more

Ordered a chicken bowl with udan noodles. The noodles were an over cooked ball of paste. Ruined my 12 dollar lunch completely. Terrible quality read more

This was our first time eating at Tokyo Joe's, and we were really impressed. There are not many places we can eat full meals as a family, as we adults are picky eaters and our son is autistic and has a limited diet. I had the ahi tuna poke bowl. It was delicious. I think my only quibble is that they added a lot of wonton strips on top--if you look at the picture, it actually looks alike a bowl of cereal! But everything tasted great and fresh. My husband had a bento box with beef, veggies, and gyoza, and was quite happy. It's hard to find good gyoza in Arizona, but they did it well here. And our son had the kid's meal macaroni and cheese. It looked like the Kraft stuff, which pleased him. He also had the chocolate cookie (well, most of it) and it was freshly-baked and very good. I had to have a sample for quality assurance, of course. The place was kept clean even though it was quite busy at 11am on a Sunday. As we prepared to leave, a gentleman came around to clean our table and checked to make sure we liked everything. I'm looking forward to coming here again! read more

I'll start with this place should be called Tokyo NO's . I wanted to just get something light and fresh so I thought eh teriyaki chicken bowl. I've never had this place always go with Waba( man what a mistake ) chicken super bland . The spicy teriyaki was just teriyaki sauce ? The yellow curry I'll give that to them was tasty! BUT, the chicken was so dry and the toppings you can add and veggie were minimal. The workers will all awesome and super friendly but doesn't save the food quality . read more

Fast and Fresh We for a quick bite to eat and decided to try Tokyo Joes after someone casually mentioned it. The food is made to order and it's fast which is nice if you have limited time. You select ingredients/protein, the size of your bowl, and sushi options. There are lots of menu options, however, it can get a little pricey with add ons. I ordered the Bento box meal with Sirloin Steak with teriyaki sauce, rice, and tuna roll. While the taste was decent, it was more rice than meat and the steak was slightly dry. Atmosphere is clean but can be a bit noisy. Staff is friendly and while you order at the counter the food is delivered to your table. read more

I wanted this place to serve good food and good service. I was wrong. I ordered a build your own bowl with chicken and vegetables. When I got it they forgot ingredients, when told they offered no apology. The amount of vegetables was small, when I asked them why so little vegetables the girl I guess, said "oh it's supposed to be low carb and the vegetables have carbs". Why don't you let me decide that, for 12.00 it was not worth it. I cannot recommend this place for a good healthy meal at any price. read more

Wife and I decided to try a different type of bowl/ sushi place. The Food bowl was pretty good. Great flavor and fresh veggies made it have that nice crunch instead of the soggy crap that sits under the warmer at panda. Sushi was ok. Not sure I would call it sushi as it's all imitation meat. Tastes alright cause of all the sauces but let's be honest sushi shouldn't be covered in sauce to make it taste ok!! Customer service was nice. Our cashier was new but very pleasant young lady! I gave it 4 stars for the bowls. I would not probably order the sushi again. Over all it was a nice lunch. read more

Service was AMAZING the guy who was at the register was very helpful with our order since it was our first time trying this place. It feels like a fast food place but an actual restaurant cause they bring out the food to you. Really nice employee and place was very clean. I will definitely go back as a date night, friends night out or even just to go back I really enjoy it. read more

Food and service was amazing! I love this place because you can choose exactly what you want and their ingredients are always fresh.

Tasty food , friendly staff, clean . Cute ambience . Love the Thai bowl. All their ingredients are fresh!

This place is really good, but they're lacking in customer service. I waited in line for about 10 min and waited 10 minutes for my food. It was during lunch hour, so they should have more then 1 person at the register. The lady at the register (didn't catch her name because she had a jacket on) wasn't friendly at all. To be honest she looked like she didn't want to be there.... I ordered a bento box with teriyaki chicken, rice, edamame, and spicy tuna sushi! The food was actually REALLLLLYYY good with the exception of the sushi...it didn't look or taste fresh at all. I only ate 1 piece because I was scared I was going to get sick, but everything else was delicious! I'll definitely be back and hopefully they get it together with their customer service skills! read more

I spent 39$ for 2 spring rolls, 1 pad Thai bowl, 1 ramen bowl, 1 order of sushi rolls. The ramen was good but was expecting better. Spring rolls were large and bulky and to me not good. The pad Thai was excellent and the sushi's was good but I have had better. For the money it's not worth it 30$ would be more like it.! read more

We love coming here for a quick lunch that is delicious and healthy. Service is great as well

Ramen has no flavor. Noodles have a very bad texture. Miso base is okay but tofu is the cheap bland and yucky kind. California rolls are decent but for store bought. I could buy the same at Walmart and it would taste the same. Would not come back or recommend. Ramen base is bland and has no flavor what so ever making the meal just bad. Changed from 1 star to 3 stars. Food didn't change BUT they allow you and encourage you to bring it up the the counter if you didn't like it they will exchange it for something else. That made me happy. read more

Tokyo Joe's - Soup and gyoza - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

Their bowls are good but a little too expensive. Ordered a large bowl but looks like a regular bowl to me. Their 9 piece sushi is just ok. Meaning I wouldn't order their again should I crave for sushi roll. A $25 worth of 2 orders... way expensive... would rather go to Cheesecake Factory and order a chicken pasta and a drink. And take home extra food. Am I going back to the place again to eat???? Probably not. read more

The food was pretty good, but I am regretting not reporting a tiny piece of blue felt. It was on the top rim of the bowl, but well above any food by at least a finger's length. Usually, I would say something, but didn't seem like a big deal, but now I'm bitter and regretting my decision. I did not suffer any mental breakdown, but writing always helps clear the head. The meal was actually great, except for the fact they charge for veggies. The chicken was white meat and sliced and covered in my sauce choice which was a peanut sauce. The veggies helped and are needed and the white rice was cooked just fine. I will return to other locations and just blame the felt on the AvonHell food curse that I have experienced one week a year for two straight years. read more

Tokyo Joe's - Very good bowl.. post felt - Sushi Bars Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

Pros: fresh ingredients, good service, clean and nice decor. Also, you can choose to build a poke bowl, a bowl with cooked stuff over rice or noodles, or sushi, so plenty of healthier options compared to regular fast-food options in the area. Cons:. Poke bowl selection was missing some key items I feel you need to round a nice poke bowl..masago, seaweed salad, or shredded dried seaweed. Over all though, a solid option. read more

For high prices, their rice was hard, teriyaki sauce too heavy with sugar and soy. I love Tokyo Joe's concept. I love Japanese food and healthy options, but I couldn't bring myself to finish my salmon teriyaki because they had doused it with way too much sauce. The rice in our California Rolls were hard, the crab filling had too much mayonnaise. I don't think I will be back. read more

Decided to meet a friend here for dinner, since we both enjoy Japanese food. It's what it is...a fast food-type restaurant where you order at the counter and they bring your meal to you at your table. First impression, the place was clean and the staff was friendly. My friend ordered the Yakitori Bowl, which she enjoyed a lot. I decided to make my own bowl with dark chicken, brown rice, zucchini, sweet potato, green and sweet onions, waterchestnuts and teriyaki sauce. It was also quite good. I ended up taking some of mine home and enjoyed it later, as well. I will probably go again, it was just fine. For a quick meal, I wouldn't have any issue with coming back. read more

Although the dish's prepared here may look appetizing and seem healthy, I have received food poisoning TWICE from this location, from what I believe is their Chicken Bento with Peanut, Edamame, California rolls and brown rice. Please inspect your food before before ingesting and use caution when shopping here. Or avoid this restaurant entirely if you're not up for feeling like absolutely shit 12 to 48 hours later. read more
