4 Best Japanese Restaurants near Desert Hot Springs

“First time trying from this spot and I ordered the plain edamame, gyoza, and spicy scallop roll. The edamame and gyoza were delicious, but the roll could’ve used a tad more flavor. The scallop was delicious and fresh, but it was definitely missing flavor. Besides that, staff was friendly and kind !“

“I have been a repeat customer for many years now. Years ago, the management suffered and was holding back a lot of potential from this restaurant, but it eventually was revamped, and the menu/food took off to become quite an amazing reflection of what you expect in a high end sushi restaurant. I used to enjoy sitting at the bar alone to enjoy the experience of small talk with the sushi chefs while they would occasionally hand me unique one offs that were very authentic to a Japanese cuisine. It kept me coming back as each visit varried from the last. Although covid crippled life for most everyone, they managed to maintain quality and once again fulfill the customer's expectations with excellent service and high-quality selections of fish and many sushi options for even the most picky eaters, I would say. Arigatō!!“
