The service is great and they brought the food quickly. The area reminded me of Japan. All of the food is really good. The dragon roll is a must try, it has the most perfect amount of sweet and savory flavor. The matcha ice cream is so creamy & delicious. The service top-notch, definitely coming back!

Was there on last Friday night around 7:30pm, the server said that there was no Chief at that time. The sashimi was not fresh.

Really enjoyed my time here. I sat with my friend near the cherry blossoms and had a nice time. For dinner it was a nice quiet atmosphere and the food was delicious.

Some of the worst sushi I’ve ever had.
Drinks were nothing special either.
Service was ok.

The vibes are nice, I loved the japonese music. I ordered the Tonkotsu ramen and it was so yummy! I specially loved the broth, noodles and eggs.

This place is dying a slow death.

The fish was not fresh. It’s obvious they are pushing the expiration date on the fish. The salmon sashimi was oddly very tough.

The regular serving of sashimi was two tough pieces of salmon, one passable piece of tuna and a disgusting, discolored trash piece of escolar.

At 2:55pm, they announced we needed to leave because they are closing. After they made each roll very slowly, one at a time. It took 40 minutes to get all of our food.

Avoid at all costs.

The food is incredible. We had the karaage, grilled eel, and tempura salmon roll. All of it was excellent. The karaage tasted just like it did at my local shop in Japan. The service was also excellent. I can’t believe we’ve been living downtown this long without coming in before today. One thing to know, the sushi rolls are huge. It was actually a little difficult to eat because one piece is more than a polite mouthful, but the proportion of rice to fish and vegetable was perfect.

10/10 we will be back.

Vegetarian options: Limited but present. Vegetable sushi roll, nori fries, cha soba, rice.

Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free folks. There are some vegetarian items on the menu as well.

Sitting in this restaurant you can feel that you are transported to true Japan with both the clear and clear way the chefs make the sushi and the menu. It even opens in reverse the way it would in Japan. I love MotoMoto and while I do think they should have a happy hour, I will still go for the high quality food.
Thank you, chefs, I love what you curate for us! It’s true and authentically executed!

I love this place. The spicy vegan ramen is our favorite. Best vegan ramen in phoenix. Best vegan sushi too. I feel like they are understaffed right now though… I hope this place doesn’t close down because we just found it last month and have been returning ever since.

Look up the latest health inspection, it's disgusting. Dead bugs, fuzzy peaches, and more!

Service is very good.

But don’t expect to get what’s shown in pictures.

I was told they gave me 4 instead of 6 pieces as shown in picture was because the salmon they gave me was thicker ?
