“Restaurant Review

I recently visited Daruma, and I must say, it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The cleanliness of the place immediately stood out—it was spotless! From the dining area to the restrooms, everything was meticulously maintained, which made the entire atmosphere feel welcoming and comfortable.

The food was equally impressive. Each dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You could tell the ingredients were high-quality and prepared with care. Whether you’re looking for a hearty meal or something light, the menu offers plenty of options to satisfy any craving.

Overall, Daruma, it’s owners and staff exceeded my expectations. The combination of a clean environment and delicious food makes it a place I’ll happily recommend to anyone. Can’t wait to come back!“

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

“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!!“

“Chef Alex is the reason why we love dining at the Chandler location and have made it somewhat of a tradition to dine-in on birthdays. We've requested for him a few times now as he actually makes an effort to entertain the guests. Our kids love his jokes! The food is always cooked to perfection and the quality is next to none. If you haven't had chef Alex prepare your meals, we highly recommend requesting for him on your next visit!“

“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!“

“I love their food, always so delicious! They reply right away when you order via messenger! The lady that works there and handles the orders is always so kind and professional! If you haven’t checked this place out PLEASE DO! Me encanta su comida 😍😍, muchas gracias!“

“Best. Ramen. Ever. Be prepared to wait in line during peak hours, but it’s well worth the wait!“

“The sushi is always delicious and fresh and you can't beat their happy hour prices! Friendly staff and quick service! Small but quaint restaurant that's easy to find! I order food for pick-up all the time and will continue to do so!“

“delicious food reasonable price“

“Love this place, but recently the sarku app has been really annoying has multiple errors and does not work and every time I tried to call them it tells me this number cannot be reached so I have to go in to order my food and wait for it to be made before bringing it home but the food is still great. 🙂“

“Yum yum the chicken teriyaki“

“Food was delicious 😋 I will come again“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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….“

“LOVE RA Sushi in Dana Park Village! Great service, fun and food. Our server Lexi is amazing. Prompt, attentive, very cautious and thorough when helping me with food allergens. There are few places I can eat out without the risk of getting sick. RA is definitely on our regular go-to places!“
