Best sushi in Phoenix. Everything they make is outstanding. The people who work there actually care about what they do and take pride in it. We have come here for the past 6 years.

One of the best sushi restaurants in AZ! We loved the Akira & Natsu rolls and Sinigang sashimi! All of the nigiri pieces were outstanding. We will be back
Richard
Food was excellent and the restaurant looks great. Noise levels were perfect. Just wish the food came out a little faster. But will definitely go again.

Came here for my anniversary with my girl and we had amazing service! Our server (long wavy hair, so sorry i forgot his name) was super friendly and knowledgeable about everything. The food was also amazing. We will be back soon!
Amy
Unique! All of the sushi we tried were beautifully crafted and had an amazingly distinct blend of flavors. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable about each menu item. Wonderfully inviting interior space. We will definitely be back!

We got the sashimi assortment and it was so good we got another order of it! The fish is soooo fresh and their happy hour is pretty good 20% off from 5-6pm. I can't recommend this place enough - Michael was our server and he was fantastic! Really great service and personable, ask for Michael when you go! Alexis was the host and she was SO sweet. I applaud the service - both of them! - really made our experience for our anniversary that much better. 11/10 one of - if not the best sushi spot in phx.

Forever obsessed with this restaurant ✨ they have the best team, my fiancé and I always feel so welcome and cared for! We've been dining here for years and it is our favorite place to get sushi! They have a new menu and it is SO delicious. We were so excited to try it.

Had reservations for 5PM on a Sunday and it was pretty empty which was nice because the noise level was pleasant and the food came out super quick. Their fish is very fresh and high quality. They have an extensive drink/cocktail menu. My only complaints are they're on the pricier side and have a limited food menu.

Across the pond is one of the best restaurants my partner and I have been to since moving to Phoenix. We reserved online and the table was ready when we got there. The waiters/hostess was very nice.
with flavor and price being the most contributing factors. Is this really good sushi in Phoenix? Yeah, I'd say it's very good sushi. Do I wish I had more for the price? Yes, I definitely wish I could have had more for the price. With that being said, this is a restaurant I'd happily go to again if I wanted to splurge on a nice dinner date, but I wouldn't go here for a random dinner just because I'm craving sushi.
We got a variety of sushi and drinks. I got the Berry White and my partner got the Big Trouble, Little Yokyo. Both were good, I enjoyed the BTLY a little more than the Berry White.
Our favorite of the night was defintely the Akira - which was a spicy salmon roll that paired beautifully with the spicy tamarind and garlic crumble. I'm normally not a big bell pepper guy, but the bell peppers were not overpowering and added a nice change in texture to the roll. We ended up ordering this twice. 5/5
We wanted to order all the Bluefin options, but they only had two bluefin options available that night:
Bluefin O-Toro nigiri: 1 piece per order. Melt in our mouth deliciousness. 4.5/5 factoring in price and flavor.
Negi Toro roll: Simple, to the point. 4/5.
Other nigiri options:
Salmon Belly: 1 piece per order. Very soft, fatty, salmon belly. Good flavor, not fishy tasting at all. It is slightly cooked on top, and we were not expecting that. My partner and I personally would have preferred it not cooked. 4/5
A5 Wagu: 1 piece per order. I personally really liked the smoky flavor, and my partner was not a big fan of it. This was another dish we weren't expecting to be cooked per say since it was under the nigiri section. 4/5
Other rolls:
Natsu roll: Yellowtail roll with cucumber, calamansi, and pomelo. The calamansi ended up overpowering the rest of the dish in our opinion - and this is coming from two people who love calamansi and general citrusy flavors. 3/5
Ebi-ten: Tempura shrimp, cucumber, avocado in soy paper. This is a basic tempura shrimp roll. I'd only order this again if I was really craving tempura shrimp in a roll. 3.5/5
Amazing!!! The food and cocktails were fantastic, the Chef or whomever running the line was impeccable. The suggestions on what to order next👌.

As soon as you walk in you can smell lingering fish. It's a bit worrisome, however the sushi on Saturday night seemed fresh. The cocktails were handcrafted to order so that is the reason for my 4star review. Service was polite, prompt, but not necessarily friendly.

Love this little spot. The place was nice and cold; the presentation of the food and drinks was excellent. The food was extraordinary, and the drinks are also good, but the only reason I took off one star was because I think the drinks are definitely a little overpriced, but totally worth the experience if you haven't been here before.
