Temari Fine Japanese Cuisine is a small, family-owned restaurant located in the east valley, celebrated for its fresh fish and extensive sushi menu featuring unique flavors. The ambiance is traditional, enhanced by the grey and red kimono hanging from the ceiling and storied tea cups displayed in a clear case. The miso soup is exceptional, and popular dishes include gyoza, shrimp Ramen, eel nigiri, tempura, and various sushi rolls like Primo, smoked salmon pepper, Amazing Grace, and Ocean City. The food quality and service are highly praised, making it a top spot for sushi in Arizona. The friendly staff, especially Kei, provides efficient and thoughtful service, describing different plates and ingredients to customers. Although it is not the cheapest option, the delicious food justifies the price. Customers have noted that the service remains friendly, even for takeout orders, where food is nicely packed. Be prepared for a wait during peak hours due to the restaurant's small size, but the fantastic food makes it worth the wait. The restaurant also offers vegetarian sushi options and allows for customization of orders, making it accommodating for dietary restrictions. It has ample parking in a small plaza and is kid-friendly, with staff eager to answer questions from children. Temari's is not a large space, but it offers a personable dining experience, making it a frequent stop for many customers.
