I like the food here and it's great that they have wifi. But... The employees always make the dining room their break room while I'm there. Laughing and talking very loudly. Also, the girls up front are usually on their phones and don't even put them away while taking the order. Also, when it's slow and you have a to go order that's sitting at a table near the counter, why would you scream their name out and make them walk to the counter? Why not just walk it out? To summarize: Customer service could be way better but the food is good. read more

Not sure who is really to blame, Yogis, or Postmates. I ordered 2 teriyaki chickens and a bottle of teriyaki sauce. So 3 items. So to clarify, that's 2 food containers and one bottle. 3 items. Not these big complex multi course meals. Super obvious to look in the bag and see if there are two meals or one. The delivery fee was $8.50 which is ridiculous, but I did it to avoid having to leave the house. Food shows up. And I have one teriyaki plate, and a bottle of sauce. So with tax, fees (not including a tip it was $37 for one small meal. Ultimately I had to go get something at a drive thru because it wasn't enough to feed two people. Postmates won't refund the delivery fee, so I basically I paid more in fees than the meal itself. The food is good given it's basically fast food. But the whole experience annoyed me enough not to order them again. read more

Yogis Grill - Ughhh - Japanese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I love Yogi's Grill. I go there at least once a week. The place is spotless clean, and the food is much higher quality than Yoshi's, Tokyo Express, Kyoto, etc. They have a great selection of Ramune, a Japanese soda that I am addicted to. You also order at the counter and they bring it to you. The menu is varied from the usual, offering fresh sushi, yakatori, tempura and other items in addition to the usual bowls of teryaki. Their signature is the Arizona bowl which has crab and avacado... I'm yet to try this one. It's a quick lunch in Biltmore and has great food in a nice clean ambiance, they so far are doing MUCH better than the restaurant which was here before it. My only issue is they do not offer a spicy teriyaki sauce, you have to make your own using siracha, which is some spicy shit! By far my favorite rice bowl restaurant though. read more

I love Yogi's Grill, I am a huge fan of Japanese food and I'm so glad that there is not only one close to my work but another just opened up because sometimes you just don't feel like having to go to a sit down restaurant to enjoy it. My meal of choice is usually the chicken teriyaki bowls. The chicken is tender and juicy and it has just the right amount of teriyaki sauce on it. I have tried the beef before and was just not as big of a fan of it. If it's your first time definitely try the chicken first! Everything is made to order I believe so it will take longer then say a Panda Express to get your food but it's worth it and the wait isn't THAT long. They also have a great lunch special that is under $10 for a meal and a medium drink. What I love about this place though is that they have a small fridge next to the registers filled with various drinks including some Japanese imports. I never get a fountain drink here, I always pick up a can of delicious green tea to enjoy and I'm not talking the AriZona kind (though I do enjoy those as well). Besides the chicken teriyaki I also love treating myself to an unagi teriyaki plate from time to time. It only comes in a large so it's a bit pricier but you get enough food for the price that I never feel ripped off. I've also sampled the miso soup and the tempura here and both were good. I've ordered sushi rolls about twice but don't expect restaurant quality sushi from here. Not saying that it's bad but it's nothing to really write home about either. The food is pictured on plates and in bowls but it does come in styrofoam containers or plastic bowls. It works for me since I usually take my food back to work to enjoy but there is ample seating if you want to stay and eat as well. read more

There's nothing fancy about, rather plain actually. Clean. Inexpensive. Quick. Good. Fairly healthy depending on your choices. I always just get a simple chicken Teriyaki bowl. Great value. read more

Walk in to the counter girl didn't even acknowledge that I was there. She was to busy playing around with here cell phone texting. She was leaning against the counter facing my direction. I had to say HELLO to get her to put down her phone. Food isn't memorable and I'm sitting here right at the table in the restaurant writing this. read more

The location on Peoria is WAY Better. I ordered a large chicken bowl with brown rice, the chicken was fatty, and the bowl hardly had any rice. I feel let down so now I'm going to the Peoria location to get my fix. I figured same company should be consistently the same however, it appears to have different owners or different leadership running the place. read more

Best beef bowl ever. I love this place If I could only eat one thing for the rat of my life it would be their beef bowl with avocado. The team is amazing and the customer service is even better. Go get you some food. read more

Not very authentic, but good in its own way. I like this place because I don't have to tip. Walk in, order, get food, eat, walk out, at my own pace w/o servers hovering over me. I have tried: The potato croquette. Pretty good. Tempura Udon. Pretty tasty but a lil too salty afterwards. Usually the battered fried veggies and shrimp + noodles + the fried flakes fill me up. Might not be big enough in portion for some ppl though. Fried California roll : Battered and fried. tastes good with teriyaki sauce (which is basically sweeetned and thickened soy sauce) Crunch Roll. Battered fried shrimp, rice, avocado wrapped in nori (seaweed), coated in fried flakes Pretty good but I'm not a big fan of shrimp to start with. If you like fried shrimp, go for it. If you're looking for something authentic and expensive, go to Shimogamo. This place isn't priced too horribly for what I get, but then again I'm very petite and I don't eat that much so I usually get one Golden /fried CA roll with a croquette and maybe a Ramune (Soda with a marble stuck in a bottle) and all is digested in a few hours and hunger returns. If you're an average sized person, might have to order more than one dish to not walk out hungry lol read more

I'd agree with this place just being average. I hadn't had sushi in a while and their rolls looked decent enough. Just needed to pick up to-go but at 12:30 this place was packed. Waited 15min for two rolls that I underestimated for size. However, I quickly realized they were packed with rice which explained how big they were. Overall the rolls were okay because they were expensive and nothing stood out or had me saying "yum". The dragon roll's avocado was very mushy, and the eel seemed to only be on every other piece, if that, and started to look questionable the further I got so I didn't finish it. This place is decent, staff were friendly but did forget a request, I'd probably get something other than sushi though... but just off the first experience I'd be fine if I never got a chance to try this place again. read more

Yogis Grill - Tempura Cali Roll (left) and Dragon Roll (right) - Japanese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Headed out for lunch today hoping to go to Shogun Express, but not knowing if it was still around. Pulled in, and while I saw that it was gone, it had been replaced with Yogi's Grill...since I was going to a teriyaki chicken bowl, it didn't matter to me who's name was on the door... Not too crowded when I walked in, and a nice bonus to see that they had the World Cup on (though weird that they were running the closed captioning...in espanol). The queueing system was awkward, it was unclear it the line from the register went left or right. The line(s) moved quickly, and soon enough I was at my table waiting for my food. The gal at the register never gave me a number, but I got it from the receipt and eagerly awaited my number to be called. And waited...and waited a little more. I'm sure in reality it was 5-7 minutes, but generally it seems that chicken bowl places are much quicker than this. Anywho, eventually, another gal comes out and asks my number, then hands me my food. Kind of weird, think it'd rather you just call my name or number. The bowl was fine, nothing out of the ordinary...the sauce did not strike me as good as what shogun used to have back in the day, but it was still a tasty meal. If I'm ever feeling like a chicken bowl, I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Yogi's. read more

If you're looking for Asian fast food but don't want that greasy feeling this is definitely the place to go! It's taste fresher and lighter!

I'm hooked! After a new job brought me to the area, I've been going 2/week or more. Good if not great teriyaki chicken/beef, all-white chicken and brown rice available, better then average pot-stickers (gyoza), and a very good "fast food" sushi menu. Spicy teriyaki is available, and I actually found it to be too hot (I _never_ say that!). I had to cut it with plain teriyaki sauce! Also, the restaurant is spotless, the staff (after 8+ visits :-) friendly and efficient. 5 stars, as compared to other Japanese 'fast food' places, like Kyoto Bowl for example. read more

All I can say is wow. I ordered vegetarian and shrimp udon. Better than I expected. They were not stingy about the vegetables. Taste authentic. Definitely will return. read more

Love this place - I go here for lunch at least once a week. Efficient, affordable and it's not too much of a pain to park (now keep in mind that I'm speaking in relative terms because this is Camelback.) Love the chicken bowls and the arizona bowl. An extra star because they have REAL brewed iced tea. Also - love the fact that they write your number on your cup and bring the food to you. So much nicer than waiting to hear your number called, etc. Pleasant service always. read more

The food was barely average, and the customer service was HORRIBLE! Seriously, the jerks behind the counter acted like I was putting them out to take and prepare my simple order, and then glared and grunted at me when they took my money. The teriyaki bowl left me spitting out pieces of gristle, so I could definitely do without the side order of rude. I had already given them another chance, and my previous experience was exactly the same...I'm not sure why I thought it would be different this time. I'm writing this negative review because they need to be reminded that we have a choice, and I for one choose not to return to Yogi's Grill. read more

If your in the mood for a taste of Samuri Sams, then this would be the place to stop. They don't offer Military discounts so don't ask. Other than that place is okay if your in the mood for some teriyaki chicken and rice. read more

I love the food. But the lack of management at this location is evident. Simple order for 4 took over 25 mins. And when I kindly asked the guy putting the food together if he could wear his mask like all the other employees. His response was no. I said I will not be back. He simply said, ok, don't come back. So there goes that weekly take out spot. read more

Food, prices good. But the eye candy during weekday lunch!!!hellloooooooo nurse!! Officers, detectives, office types. LoL Beef or chicken lunch special with drink $7.79. Edamame good size and delicious. The California crunch roll is delicious too. read more

OK food but awkward layout and poorly trained staff. Half the time I order by number and the girl taking my order has no clue what I'm trying to order. Often they put my name down in an unrecognizable spelling that when they call my order, I have no idea it's me. The takeout orders are handed out in the middle of the ordering line so you have people bumping up against you while you sit and wait. The steak and chicken almost always have several big chunks of gristle you have to spit out. After a year of alternating between Yoshi's and Yogi's, it's time for me to go back to Yoshi's exclusively. read more

This place is just okay. The food isn't bad but it isn't super delicious either. They have sushi, teriyaki chicken and beef bowls, and udon. Their teriyaki sauce is good, but nothing special. To be honest, I would come here if I was in the mood for some teriyaki bowls but I would probably get it to-go. The rice is good, they just need to cook it a little more or add more water because when I came here, it was kind of hard. The staff was nice and friendly. read more

Great food and service. This location is better than several others I've been to in Phoenix. Very friendly staff!

OK, so I've only had the udon, but its great! The udon is deep in the menu, so I was skeptical at first, but its good stuff. The Shrimp Udon is the best, as I've since tried the chicken and beef versions. The udon is nice and thick and the soup comes out steaming-hot! Make sure you add some Sriracha if you can handle the spice! The restaurant has been nice and clean every time, and the staff has always been kind and helpful. Easily beats out other Japanese fast-food types that I've tried before. Make sure you try some Aloha beverages, if you haven't already! read more

Yogi's is a great place to grab a quick, fairly-cheap meal. I love the Arizona bowl - it's a great alternative for you sushi craving if you don't feel like spending a lot of money. The quality of the food isn't bad. The sushi rolls are alright. The staff is moderate - they've never done anything to impress me, but haven't done anything to disappoint either. read more

It's pretty healthy. It's fast. It tastes good. It's near my house. They have chop sticks. I'll be back read more

Today is 2/6/16 I ordered a garlic noodle w/chicken. The last time I was here my experience was good today..... Not so much. It smells like a port o potty. OMG I was unable to enjoy my late lunch. I ate a bit but end up leaving as the smell made me lose my appetite. Not sure what why it's smells this awful. Somebody needs to do something about it. Omg it stinks in here. read more

Food is always great however the customer service at this location really sucks. Front counter staff is horrible!

One of my favorite places to order lunch when im at work. Food is ALWAYS hot, fresh and delicious. Veggies are always cooked well, never overcooked and mushy like other places. read more

Honestly y'all - this place takes so much pride in their food. From aesthetics to presentation to taste ! It's so yummy and their take out is always arranged so perfectly and neatly! They're so thorough and our orders are always exactly right. The food is so good and amazingly priced for the quality ! Thank you for your efforts and taking your time ! You can really tell you care and the owners should be thrilled to have y'all! Literally enjoying my takeout as we speak ! read more

I've never experience horrible customer experience. The employees were throwing the cups of sauce at us after we were charged for sauce that they didn't give to us from the beginning. Will be never going back to Yogis Grill in Laveen AZ on 59th Ave. Jonathan the manager should learn some customer service. He was fighting with us in front of the entire restaurant from the back kitchen. Honestly I don't even think he was the manager by how he acted. read more

Eh. It wasn't as good as I hoped. It did seem a little dirty. The cashier on the other had was great, he made me feel welcomed and was helpful. read more

Yogis Grill has the best Chicken & Beef Teriyaki here! I always get the meal that comes with the shrimp & vegetable tempura. The miso soup is delicious as well. I highly recommend this place! read more

Food was ok- it was expensive for what you got. Fast food. It took a long time too, I ordered all veggies no rice and they gave me the wrong thing. They corrected it quickly. read more

I am in love with their bowls! When I go here I know The service is going to be so welcoming, the food is cooked to perfection, and all around I am going to be satisfied. It's by far the best place to get a bowl or sushi for the price. I will for sure be recommending yogis to whoever I can!!! read more

Banger every time. I can eat here everyday it's so good. Simple but loud with flavor.

Found someone's child under a dining table, decided to adopt it as my own, food was good

Yogis Grill - Beef Udon - Japanese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

This place is conveniently located so I come here often. I don't get out of the gym until 830-845 PM so I make it there by 845-850 PM and EVERYTIME They get an attitude and they never have sushi. I would go every night bc it's the closest place that serves a semi healthy option but I feel bad and I SHOULDN'T. Hours of operation are until 9. I understand it's almost closing but it's just bad for business. read more

Awful customer service. Front cashier ruined our dinner by mopping with an attitude next to our table--all because we came in at 830 and they close at 9. The cook then came out after our food was served and was playing around with her and kept looking at our food simultaneously laughing and coughing.. it made us so uncomfortable like they had tainted our food? The attitude was way too strong in there from that front register girl and I will never return here sadly. I LOVE yogis. But do not waste your time here, plus the location is dingy and rundown. read more
