You know how sometimes when you eat seafood you get a flash of ocean taste?? THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN HERE!!! The lobster tail was extremely flavorful and tender, not tough at all. They also were generous with the lobster, I couldn't help but finish it all. I ordered through the website and picked up in store. I will definitely be back!!! read more

Sad to say I can't go back here after having a vomiting episode shortly after a meal here. Had tuna, shrimp, and crab. I am quite sad about this because I liked this place, but I'm not willing to take that chance again and for that reason I cannot recommend this spot to anyone. read more

Great sushi spot! The happy hour menu is fantastic! My friend and I split three rolls and it was perfect! Service was quick and friendly and it's a very low key vibe in the restaurant. read more

Another 5 star experience. We orders several rolls and not a single one disappointed. We ended up taking food home and my son gobbles it down a few hours later. Our waitress was really good and attentive. We came on Mother's Day after church but it was wasn't super busy because we were there before they opened. There was line starting to form. But we made it inside right away. As it began to fill up, the staff kept up with the demand of the orders and everything came out fresh. One thing I will mention, the hallway to the bathroom had a funky smell. The bathroom also needed some attention but I won't take away from the experience because the food was perfect. read more

This place is delicious staff is attentive and friendly it's a staple very clean order the palm springs roll so refreshing

I stopped by at Yen Sushi and this place never disappoints! Everything is always so yummy. I love the vibes in here. I also love you can see the sushi bar when you walk in and you can sit by it and watch them get to work on the sushi making! It's pretty cool. The service is always good when I stop by. My friend got the fried shrimp appetizer and she loved it! We both also got the chicken teriyaki bowl with rice and omg soooo good! Their teriyaki sauce is so heavenly! I always ask for extra cause it's that darn good!! My son got the beef teriyaki bowl and wow his looked and tasted amazing! Definitely gonna get that next time! He loved it and finished his whole plate! He keeps talking about it haha. Definitely will be returning. Highly recommend to check this place out if you have not already. read more

We have been coming here for years. Appreciate how despite their growth/success their prices remain reasonable. Their specials are definitely a highlight. We had never had the don't cry roll until recently. Such a highlight of the menu. The spicy sauce is delicious and is balanced very well by the tomato and avocado. One of the few places in town with Ono which is another highlight. Sometimes the service can be a little hit or miss but overall is solid. A go to for us time and time again! read more

We decided on this place for our monthly girl dinner. Got there at 6 pm. We got sat right away. Drink order right away. We took a few to look at the menu. It was a bit hectic because it did not seem there was one waitress more like everyone helped everyone. We put our order in and that took about 40 minutes to get the sushi. Which was a bit long. But the food was very good. I got the yellow tail sashimi , the baked scallop roll and the yellow tail scallion roll. All so very good. The ambiance was a bit loud and hectic but again the food was good. read more

Great value! We had 2 lunch specials; The Bento Box, comes with Rice, choice of proteins, choice of Edamame or Gyoza, choice of California Roll, or Spicy Tuna Roll, Salad and Miso soup. The food came right away and it was fresh and hot. The Sushi Roll combo had full sized Sushi Rolls, Salad and Miso soup! All in with Tip it was $35. The resturant was clean and well maintained. The Service was spot on, quick and freindly! We are very picky Sushi eaters and we really liked this place. Do not judge it from the outside!!! read more

The all day happy meal is pretty good if you just want a little bite of something and a good drink. They had large ($8.00) or small size Kirin beer & I had a Applenini cocktail (pretty strong) for $8.50. It was pretty good. They also had a lot of other choices on rolls at regular menu price. That's pretty fair and decently price. Overall, I would recommend this establishment.. read more

A wide variety of sushi options is what drew us to this sushi restaurant. The sushi prices were very reasonable and while we carefully looked for rolls that did not include "crabmix" we made sure by asking the server to ensure that none of the 5 rolls we ordered had imitation crab and in fact one of the rolls contained imitation crab even though it was not listed on the menu. With the notation by the server we received the roll sans imitation crab and it was very fresh and tasty. All of the fish was very fresh and the rolls were prepared like works of art. Lastly, a number of items we ordered were reduced for happy hour but we were never provided with a happy hour menu so our reduced bill was a pleasant surprise. Looking forward to going back. read more

This place sucks! No nice way to put it. Did a pick up order at 5pm. 2 sushi rolls and an order of Edamame. Easy! Arrived at 5:20, as their app said. Paid and then waited....and waited. One girl said 5 minutes. I could see my two rolls sitting on the counter the whole time. So all I'm waiting for is an edamame. 5:35 (15 minutes of waiting) I finally leave. Edamame is literally dipped in boiling water for a minute. It doesn't take 35 minutes! The place had like 5 tables (no surprise there). Meanwhile..,as I'm standing around, I watch one of their waitresses standing in the kitchen, playing with her hair! In the kitchen!! Then leaves the kitchen, picks up plates of sushi and delivers them to her table! No...never even thought about washing her hands. Gross!!!! I won't be back....this place sucks. read more

We went on a Sunday night and were pleasantly surprised. The sushi was delicious and I'd say less expensive than many places. The service was good despite being close to closing time. read more

My wife and I are regular customers at this location. We have never had issues with the service or the food. However, today we asked to sit where we have sat many times before. The staff was reluctant but sat us there. Then another staff member asked us to to move again. We order rolls and an entree. Which is why we need the larger table. They asked us to move to another 4 top because, they might need this one for a bigger party. This was because they had a 2 top next to our 4 top. They could have easily moved the small 2 top next to us to another area for a larger party. It was unnecessary for them to make this an issue after we had already been sat. It was unprofessional to press the issue and suggest we move again to another 4 top. We will not be returning. read more

We just love the food and the servers here! So nice and efficient. They always remember what we drink and the appetizers we order. I just love the yellow tail collar. read more

I came in and ordered at the bar and it was great to watch the sushi chefs hard at work. I started with the yellow tail sashimi and also got a hot night. It was nice to get the added veggie tempura for the roll. Sushi was amazing and make sure to get a kirin light to enjoy. If you are looking for good sushi come here read more

This is still my tried and true when i visit arizona. The sunset roll is amazing and you cannot find it anywhere else. The crazy boy roll is also a favorite of mine. Their lunch specials take this place to another level as they are truly a steal. I now live in Austin which has many michelin star sushi spots and Yen is still my favorite sushi place I've been to. Service is always quick and kind! read more

You wouldn't expect this place to be so big in the inside. We were recommended by this place from a friend because she knew our love for sushi. Our family owned restaurant was bought out by a sushi franchise restaurant. Anyways. Lol. Yen was very good. Although busy. They were fast and prompt. My 6 yr old son over the salmon and I got the rock and roll. The fish was fresh. Very good. We'll go back! You can tell they're used to having a lot of traffic. They're fast. Glad we tried them. Go check them out! read more

The recent 1 star reviews left me very worried as this place is a long established neighborhood favorite for myself and many others. It has been several years since my last visit and I was very much missing it. I took a leap of faith and hubby and I had our anniversary dinner here last night. It was so good and I'm relieved it went so well for our special meal. Our order consisted of miso soup and chicken curry rice for hubby and baby octopus and chicken curry udon for myself. Miso soup was standard and the baby octopus was borderline tough with too much breading for my liking. Our curries were excellent and something we would both order on a regular basis. Service was pleasant and our items came out at a good pace. We got in at a really good time at 5pm before the dinner rush. It quickly filled up after we sat down at our table. This is a great place for families and getting together with friends. It will be tough to have a quiet, romantic meal as this place isn't really built for that but I still very much recommend this for a date night. The all day, everyday happy hour menu is an incredible gift and will help keep costs down if you are on a budget. I am really looking forward to my next visit! read more

Late night sushi crave. Usual spot was closing so decided to hit this spot up. Service fast and attentive. Ambiance little to none as everyone was closing up. Sushi was ok, spicy pork not so much. I don't have much to say except maybe I should come earlier however to me service and food shouldn't matter the time. read more

Accidentally came across this place while across the street at CocoShack. I was craving handrolls and looked up on yelp where I could get some and Yen Sushi popped up. We ordered some handrolls to go and while inside waiting for our food, the place looked jammin' so we said we needed to come back sometime for dinner. Last week the hubs and I came back for dinner. The service was great, the food was fantastic and the price was very reasonable. We ordered a few handrolls which were huge and delicious, baked mussels, salmon sashimi, miso soup, scallop volcano roll and the crazy boy roll (which was my favorite!). We will definitely frequent this place more. What a hidden gem. read more

Okay YUM!! This restaurant is in the back of a strip mall. Doesn't look like much from the outside. Don't let that fool you. The food is delicious and the service is above and beyond! Which explains so it was packed on a Tuesday night. We loved everything we ordered. Crispy rice with spicy tuna is a must. If you like cucumber wrapped rolls, the Rock and Roll is delicious. Can't wait to go back and try more read more

Great staff, happy hour deals even on a Sunday, and MANY options. Something for everyone. We came here for dinner on a holiday evening. The staff was really friendly and helpful, especially considering my friend's son can be a picky eater. He tried a sushi roll but didn't like it. He then ordered a tempura udon without tempura () but our waitress didn't have any issues. He ended up with a noodle soup he really liked and ate most of it. A win is a win am I right? The portion sizes were huge! The spare ribs were delicious and caramelized. The Arizona roll was very tasty with jalapeño inside and sweet sauces on top. I loved the sauces I dipped my other roll in it! The other sushi roll I forget the name of. It came with a huge pile of tempura jalapeños on top! This was a big hit. Plus 2 of the 3 sushi rolls were on happy hour. If you are around here, this place is worth the stop in! read more

I'm 2 weeks past my gastric sleeve and I'm sorry trying to take in small portions of food and I figured I don't think there's anything much smaller than sushi. The restaurant was really nice as far as the ambience and the staff. They have a really nice open sushi bar as soon as you come in. I ordered the shrimp shamai for appetizer and it was so very good and soft and chewable and made my stomach happy. The chicken teriyaki was really tasty but it was still a little rough on the stomach so I didn't need a whole lot of it but it was really good and I didn't get to eat any of the rolls unfortunately that came with it. Losing 80% of your stomach definitely Alters your eating habits and these reviews are going to be bits and pieces of what I order at these different establishments going forward. However, this is a really great place and it was packed and people were very happy and it was very good eats. read more
