“We went for lunch soon after they opened. It was pretty busy but we were seated right away. We’ve been here a few times already so we know how popular this place is. We got the chirashi and sushi & tempura lunch special. We also got aji, ama ebi nigiri, spicy tuna and takoyaki. It was a ton of food. Food came out quick and all so delicious. I would consider Hiro as a place I get more traditional japanese food, rather than fancy decked out rolls.Kid-friendliness: We’ve taken our 2 year old here and regretted it. Not because they were not accommodating, but because it’s a small space.“

“Delicious and healthy, the meal commenced with a bowl of miso soup. Shrimp tempura was light and tender. Edamame are tasty. Gyoza was delightful with each morsel yielding a variety of texture. Chicken Katsu Curry had a light panko bread, offering a sense of fusion cuisine. The California roll, lovely in its simplicity, paralleled the dragan roll, an excellent combination of shrimp and smoked eel. The green tea perfectly complimented the meal. The music is not japanese, is too loud, and is somewhat disagreeable. Besides that, the atmosphere is pleasant and server Ariana was attentive.“

The roll was large with many pieces filled with crab and topped with eel and avocado. The elk sauce was great, not too sweet and not too thin. I look forward to retuning often.“

“Best sushi experience so far in Arizona coming from someone who lived in Japan for 15 years. I didn't try the uni but will next time. At $25 for two nigiri, it's a bit steep for me even though it's probably my favorite thing to eat. Toro roll was amazing! Natto, awesome as usual. Hot sake was great. We got the combination meals. Toro-don and cold ramen, Una-don and cold ramen. Both sets were amazing ? We'll be coming back again soon, but not soon enough. Looks to be all Japanese owned ??. Normally I get pictures but this time I missed out on a few dishes.“

I've also had a takeout ramen and the way the food was packed was quite good as the soup was separated from the noodles to prevent the noodles from getting soggy. This restaurant has been around for awhile but it looks like the little Japanese restaurants that I've seen when we lived in Tokyo, made me feel like I was back in Japan.“

They have some unique food items, gifts, and decore I love coming here. They have a nice alcoholic beverage area as well. The desserts are a big hit and I always pick up a macadamia nut white chocolate cookie or two from the bin for my hubby. Delicious sushi and hot food always on display ready for you to pick your faves and take it to go. They have a nice patio area if you would like to sit and relax.“

All the toppings are an additional 2-4 $ which can add up very quickly. The chicken and beef was good but needs more toppings!Perhaps I should try the sushi next time… good prices but who knows the quality …Dietary restrictions: Gluten free ✅“

“This review is specifically for the karaoke rooms. When we first tried this place out in 2022, it was just an okay experience- the room felt a bit old/unclean, the song selection was limited, and we spent half our alloted time battling with the glitchy sound system. We tried it again the following year and it has SIGNIFICANTLY improved- the machines work flawlessly, the new karaoke app has plenty more songs, and the rooms have been tidied up or remodelled. This has become one of our favorite experiences in Old Town and we're constantly finding excuses to come here. The service is great and their specialty cocktails are delicious as well. We will definitely be back, undoubtably several times more. :)“
