20 Best Japanese Restaurants in Mesa

“Amazing sushi and Japanese Izakaya fare (yakitori, curry etc). They often import fish from Japan, so be sure to ask about what's special that night!“

“Reminds me of food I used to get on base at MCAS Iwakuni Japan, not far from Nagasaki.“

“The food, service, and facility were excellent! I particularly appreciated that they have partitions to give you a little more privacy. I had the yellow tail sashimi and also a yellowtail avocado roll. My wife and I also shared a ramen and a Vegas roll. EVERYTHING was amazing!!!“

“The sushi spot that will ruin all the other sushi experiences for you! We haven’t found a better sushi maker than Jade and Tech here at Makittos! 🤤 try the Angie roll and soju!!“

“My first time coming here , I was in the mood for a good tasty soup since I’m feeling a bit under the weather . Googled near by places that have soup and I landed at Yoko . Tried out their Yoko soup and it was super delicious!! Soup hot, flavorful , chicken was juicy ! Only thing that was a downside was the guy taking my order , he talks soft & so quiet it was hard to hear what he was saying when I asked questions about menu items . Otherwise , I’ll definitely be back!“

“Unmatched Sushi Experience at House Modern Sushi in Mesa! Review: My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at House Modern Sushi, located conveniently next to the AMC theater in Mesa, and I must say, it was an absolutely phenomenal experience! Right from the start, we were impressed by the cleanliness of the interior and the warm welcome we received, which set a fantastic tone for the evening. The service at House Modern Sushi is genuinely outstanding. It's clear that this family-owned business puts a lot of heart into their service, ensuring every customer feels valued and well-cared for. Their attentiveness and friendly demeanor made our dining experience even more special. Now, onto the main event - the sushi! Every single item we ordered was nothing short of incredible. The sushi rolls were fresh, expertly crafted, and presented beautifully. What really stood out was the generous portion size, which is a great value for the price. Each bite was a delightful explosion of flavors, clearly highlighting the quality of the ingredients used. Comparatively, House Modern Sushi easily surpasses other local spots like RAW and Broker Sushi. There's just something about the way they prepare their dishes that makes their sushi stand out in a league of its own. Without a doubt, House Modern Sushi has become our new go-to place for sushi in Mesa. Whether you're a sushi connoisseur or just looking for a delightful dining experience, I highly recommend visiting House Modern Sushi. It's more than just a meal; it's an experience that you'll want to return to time and again!“

“The treats taste heavenly and are always fresh. You can tell a lot of love goes into making these treats💗 Definitely recommend!!“

“If you want to eat fresh and delicious sushi come over. I worked in a restaurant for over 20 years and I can tell the difference between quality of the food. This place care about food quality, costumers and employers. So visit this place enjoy this little restaurant with great heart….“

“I can’t believe I haven’t left a review for this place. Specifically the Ellsworth location. We’ve ordered probably 15 times since finding it in November. It’s our #1 take out place! The chicken and beef teriyaki bowl with no rice, double veggies is my favorite!“

“My favorite all you can eat sushi in the valley. Fair pricing, includes sashimi, nigiri, specialty rolls, a variety of hot food items like teriyaki chicken, fried rice, udon/soba, tempura, edamame, etc. Really a place to get sushi and it's always served fresh.“

“We had Makenna as our server tonight at RA in Mesa AZ at Dana Park, at 4:30pm on 10/03/2025. WOW!!! Incredible server with great knowledge of the menu and the food and offered awesome suggestions. She was very personable and attentive. It was such a delight to eat out and have a server that actually likes their job. Thank you so much Makenna for your smiles and joyful nature. To the GM: Makenna deserves a raise and a promotion. We will definitely be requesting her next time we are in.“

“Did you know that the word Teppanyaki in Japanese means ‘splash hot oil in customer’s eye?

Although Got Sushi tossed out its much beloved teppanyaki tables (and chefs) ages ago, the cuisine and customer service still SIZZLE!

So after hittin’ the ballot box and pounding down two Whopper Junior appetizers at BK, I was ready for a REAL meal. And I found it at Got Sushi!

The tall bottle of Kirin (not Japanese?) and Lemon Chicken Bento box instantly made life worth living again.

Gochisosama deshita!“

“The food was great and very tasty. This restaurant has 5 rows of food to select from. The staff were very attentive and cleared the plates from the table and made sure my drink was refilled. I've been to pacific seafood buffet, and I think this restaurant was so much better. I love coconut/ honey walnut shrimp. The shrimp and sauce at pacific didn't taste as good as this restaurant. The price was decent. It was 17.95 for dinner and came out to about 22 bucks with a drink. I read a few reviews saying the food wasn't hot when they got back to the table and another mentioning the paper plates. My food was still hot when I got back to my table, and I didn't mind the paper plates. They were decent paper plates, not the cheap ones that get soggy on the bottom or fold from the weight of the food. I'll definitely be coming back when I crave a buffet again.“
