Worst food ever!! Everything was horribly dry and over cooked and it took forever!! We were super excited for this place but very disappointed. Ambience was tacky with a fake tree in the middle and the food was the worst part. Nothing online told us there was only a special menu on Valentine's Day and when we went in they even gave us a normal menu.... Would not recommend.

This spot is great for lunch, dinner or a drink with friends. This has been a great place to gather in the Queen Creek area for many years - we will miss them very much and are sad that they are closing.

I would give this place 2 and a half stars...I JUST moved here to QC from stanky California and wanted to take my mom to dinner to celebrate an early birthday before she headed back home since she helped me drive from CA for 16 hours! I have to say it's a cute place upon entering but we actually got there at 330pm and we were the only ones there for a while. Our server Josh was pleasant enough but his service started declining after an hour, even though, there was basically no one else in the restaurant except a mother and daughter and 3 other people at the bar. I was grateful the sushi was actually good but I would say maybe the sushi maker should wear the same type of uniform as the other servers INSTEAD OF wearing a baseball hat and wrinkled clothing. It just looked weird and presentation is key. My mom's dinner, on the other hand was QUITE DISAPPOINTING. The salmon WAS NOT fresh and was over cooked. Not even slightly pink, just almost gray so this was frozen, we could tell. Vegetables were okay but the rice or risotto was half cooked and had no flavor, so basically cooked improperly.Slight improvements needed at this place...we had to ask for the check because Josh was hanging out at another table, chatting...then we had to ask for boxes to save what we thought could be salvaged (the rice and extra veggies) and we also weren't offered a bag to carry the container in but okay...Salmon should be fresh and better attentive service. The only reason I even gave 2 and a half stars is because the sushi was actually decent.

I found a great drink with a cherry in it that was the best cherry I've ever tasted. Sushi, excellent and healthy portion of whatever you order if you like nigiri. Only had two other meals there, they were excellent as well. Cool place. Great service, friendly people. Worth your time and money.

Good food. We used to go when they had the dueling pianos. Atmosphere is decent. I would say give it a try. Their breakfast is good as well.

Communication from the staff is horrible. Where do I start... We use to go often because the food is great. However, this past weekend the staff didn't communicate how long we had to wait for appetizers. We had to ask for refills in our drinks . 45 mins waiting for appetizers, which they tried to serve our dinner the same time. We asked not to put our dinner under heat lamps. Guess what. They did. Our food was dried out and cold. Our friend had her first bite of the steak salad and attach to the bite was a long human hair. No one was sympathetic of our experience, they just gave us a gift card as a sorry. Today we tried them again. Again the food from last experience has been great. They had a community event. No one had food we asked how long the wait would be. We were told 20 mins. Hubby then promptly asked don't lie to me how long will the wait be. We were ask toLeave after expressing our concerns.So disappointed!!!!

No. Don't go. We sat for two hours in a half empty restaurant on a Friday night. We had a large party and people got and finished food before people were even served. Mainly because we were starving and didn't want to wait until the food was cold to eat it. When the food did come it was nothing to write home about. Steak wasn't close to rare but I wasn't about to send it back. We were all miserable. I will NEVER be back but at this point I may never leave either. Still waiting for people to get their food... two... hours... later... it's like the Hotel California of restaurants. We almost walked to the Taco Bell across the parking lot. No manager came and talked to us the waiter barely mentioned the wait. People in our party had to leave before everybody even got their food. And again... the food wasn't even worth the price let alone the wait.Consensus when we actually did get the food... so... NOT... worth it. By a LONG shot. I've honestly never seen anything like this. Where is the manager. The staff just wanders around. Close the doors.

So bad. Not sure how this place has four stars. Maybe we came on a bad day and they were going through it. It was Mother's Day, they were not that busy at all around brunch time (no wait and a good amount of open table). But man was it all about quantity and not quality here. The service was not good. The waitress had such a bad attitude the whole time and seemed like we were inconveniencing her. We were a large party, because it was Mother's Day and she seemed upset about the day and had major attitude.Then, our food came out and the quality of all was rushed and subpar. Like been sitting for a while, cold bad buffet for. And mine was wrong. They gave me two of the same things, and I asked the girl (not our waitress) and she said oh ya, they are out of the other thing you ordered. So instead of telling me and asking if I wanted to replace it or take it off, they just picked for me. Not how you do things.The bruschetta I got, all 5 of them, were on this white piece of untoasted floppy bread. Literally maybe kissed with heat on one side, but it was regular white bread, soggy and flopped over, that's how untoasted it was. Which bruschetta is meant to be on a crunchy grilled piece of bread. And of course, the waitress was rude about me asking them to toast it. Just such a bad experience. Overall.

I have been here a few times and really liked it. Went on Mother's Day, with my whole family (my idea) and was so disappointed. The food came out sporadically. 3 of us got ours like 20 minutes after everyone else was done. The bruschetta was horrible and soggy. Sent them back and the ones that were ordered were not the ones that came out. Not sure if they ran out of the one ordered or if it wasn't written down correctly, but not correct and nothing was said about it. We all felt like the server hated her job. Kinda had an attitude when we asked about the bruschetta being soggy. I love the ambiance of this place and have had great service in the past, but this was sub-par all the way around. Not sure we will be back.
Fresh ingredients in the board. Large empty space, definitely seemed like something was missing. The matza like crackers were broken to little bits. For the amount of hummus and cheese spread there should have been more pita bread or toasted bread. Ordered a Pepsi and it was cross contaminated with a cherry cola and a told there was no one there to change the line so I had to order Sierra Mist. Just too many places to select from to settle for less than great.

A hidden gem in the area. Food is excellent and the range of types of food are wonderful. Lots of specials! Try taco Tuesday and get the salmon

Got a salad and it was just OK. For the price it was bad. The amount of chicken you get and items on the salad are so minimal. I won't return. There is a neat tree in the middle of the restaurant...

The best thing about this place is the fake tree and stars in the middle. Wine on tap…interesting. Mostly American style food…with a sushi bar…RANDOM!! Tried going simple with a salad, lettuce and toppings how could you go wrong. Well it was missing pretty much everything that made it an actual salad including the part of lettuce that is green. ??♀️??♀️??♀️ Romaine yes it was…it was also ALL rib…ya know the part most people throw away. Drinks seemed good to those drinking…food and prep STEP IT UP PLEASE! ?

Ugh I hate doing this but here goes. We usually love this place and have rated it in the past to keep it up and running. Went tonight and it was not a great experience. Felt a little judged with the kids there. We had a awful server. Just not happy, not attentive, and not helpful. We have both worked in the food industry and understand how busy it can get, but we got checked on zero times after we ordered our food. She didn’t come back until the food was out and we had eaten most of it. It also took forever to get the food, 45 mins later we got something. The food runner said that they are short handed in the back. It’s a seat yourself place, but really shouldn’t be. Idk, I really can’t say we will be back and that’s a bummer.
