Sasaki Sushi & Bar

The service was excellent and a clear plus point of the visit. However, the miso soup had slight weaknesses: the drops of fat in the broth spoiled the impression, and the taste was rather mediocre - I would rate it 5/10.

The Sake Maki were not convincing in terms of appearance and taste. The pieces were cut unevenly, the rice roll was too loose and the overall texture was too soft. The taste was also only average at 5/10. It appears as if the fish may have been thawed, which would be understandable since fresh sushi is difficult to obtain in remote regions.

The sake nigiri performed a little worse - the taste and quality of the fish was closer to a rating of 4/10.

The ramen was small in portion size, with little broth and a single piece of bacon. A little more vegetables or other additions could have significantly improved the overall impression.

In summary: The service is top, but there is still room for improvement when it comes to the quality and presentation of the food.

I am giving five stars mostly for the pork buns. The other food was great but the pork buns are really what is driving this review.

Sushi spot in a nice spot with a limited menu and some drink offerings. Visited during happy hour and there was only one other table. Chef was less than enthusiastic and seemed to be very interested in his iPad. Expected more of Sasaki based on reviews.

A group of us were in old town Scottsdale, and was walking around the new civic center to build up an appetite. 4 adults and 4 children that spanned the ages of 4-16, so we could have went to Grimaldi’s but passed by this place and some of the kids were tired of pizza and wanted Ramen. I know, kids tired of pizza… seems odd but true. They have a nice and clean A/C dining room but we opted for the outdoor patio seating area. As there was a nearby Jazz festival. It set the mood for a great dining experience. Ethan was our server, and even though it was a packed house, he got all of orders and assured that the food arrived nice and hot. We were happily surprised by the quality of the Tonkatsu Ramen, the noodles were just the amount of al dente and firmness. The broth was flavorful but not overly salty which complimented the pork belly and the medium egg. It was delicious and just 12$. We ordered some California rolls, shrimp tempura rolls, tempura udon soup, and sashimi. It was yummy, not leftovers at all. It was delicious, my family and I returned again. Ethan and the owner are not only great “hosts” but also delivered world class customer service and hospitality at the level you may come to expect at a fine dining establishment. We will be back.

Went here a Friday afternoon, only had a couple customers, the happy hour pricing was great, the food was great, and the service was great. I highly recommend the miso soup.

The prices were very reasonable for being so close to old town Scottsdale. A good variety of roll selection too. The outdoor seating area is particularly lovely.
