We went to the Sushi Japanese Restaurant with a group of 12 people for a bachelorette party and we had the most incredible experience! Our server, Matt, was very warm, welcoming, and accommodating. He really made our experience special and took great care of us. The jalapeño poppers were exceptional!! The Phoenix roll experience was unforgettable and the Sapporo beer was deliciously crisp. I highly recommend this restaurant!

The place was ok. With the other options available to us, we won't be going back.
The staff was great. The service was great. He was very friendly and very nice.
The food was lacking. My favorite sushi is the rolls that they light on fire. They have that roll at this location, but the flavor just wasn't as good as other places I've tried. We also had the soft shell crab, which was quite expensive for a single crab, and the fried calamari, which was pretty good. We also had the fried rice, which was ok but not great.
The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, though.
Overall, I just felt like the food was lacking and a bit too expensive for what I was getting. But the overall experience was pleasant.

The sushi is delicious and a great deal at buy one get one 50% off. Definitely worth it. Our waiter was new and super slow. Not sure I'd go back with long wait times to order and get food.

One of the best sushi places in the entire area, the Mt. Fuji roll is especially good if you like something nuanced, savory and sweet that's not too over the top or sugary and has excellent texture and flavor. I've been here multiple times and it's never disappointed, I don't think I've ever had something I didn't like, and have developed several favorites. Pairing the Fuji with a spider roll is my personal go-to.

i love this place, they are a little bit expensive but pretty worth it. i would recommend the sushi options over their other dishes - nothing else i've had here is bad, i just think the sushi is a lot better and more worth the price. I also think the dining booths looked a lot better by the windows. it's kind of awkward how it is right now with them right in front of the bar.

Had some good sushi here. I tried out two different roles and was happy with both. Clean restaurant, comfy booths to sit at, and just an overall cool place. Service was excellent as well. Couldn't ask for more.

My partner and I went here on a whim and felt like we found a diamond in the rough. The atmosphere and ambience are great, the service was top tier, and the sushi was fantastic.

The waitress cleaned used plates up as we were finished with them, the menu was simple and not overwhelming, and the food was delicious. We eat sushi often and had a roll that we’ve never tried before (Mt. Fuji Roll), that was delicious.

It always feels good to support local businesses, and this is a place you can have a great experience at. Not to mention that prices were more than fair for the quality of sushi you’re getting.

Very impressed! We’ll be making this a main sushi spot.

Dietary restrictions: Lots of GF and DF options!

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids bento box that makes it fun and tasty for little ones. They also have Blow-pops for guests on the way out.

I am sorry to report that my experience wasn't very good here. Our server was very nice and very friendly. So, my review is mixed on the food. We had sushi and 2 other entrées... The sushi was passable albeit a bit fishy ? ? indicating an old fish. We also ordered shrimp fried rice. That was absolutely delicious!!! I decided to go with a "safe" entrée and ordered the teriyaki chicken. I often get this at Nagoya over in West Jordan and Nagoya's teriyaki chicken is great! This one here? Absolutely gross... Now, the chicken was cooked nicely and the presentation was... meh... served on some soggy lettuce and bean sprouts in water. The sauce on the chicken is what ruined it... Absolutely nasty, tangy, and sharp... almost if they had blind bought it at Smith's and dumped it on the chicken... Nagoya's sauce is delectable!!! I usually pour it over my rice it's so good! Here? No way... I literally ate 3 slices of this dish and my stomach started growling... This morning? My stomach is still messed up. Something was wrong with that chicken or sauce... I am very disappointed with their lack of caring about this... I was very kind in telling the server about it. I sure didn't want her to feel bad that I got a gross, inedible dish. The lady's solution? She took 50% off that dish only. How petty! She did not offer another solution, only an apology and a partial discount in something I didn't eat. Sadly guys... I cannot give my blessing on this restaurant ?. I wanted so badly to have a really nice dinner... It was ruined... oh! And it took them 38min to get that chicken to me. Can you guess the temp of the chicken? Ya... cold... sad, sad, sad... I am so sorry that I cannot report a great experience. So, to summarize this restaurant... I think I'd probably recommend em for sushi ?. It was definitely passable... The rice was great! Salad? Meh... Miss soup? Meh... So, at least give em a whirl... I hate sounding like I'm badmouthing a place... The reason for 2 stars was that the rice was awesome and the sushi was decent enough... and out initial experience with our server. Otherwise, they'd get 1? ... Oh, do not order any of their specialty drinks as they are of the powdered variety and just not good?. Thank you for taking the time to read this reveiew... Hopefully they can improve their teriyaki sauce... no one wants to go out to eat and be served a terrible, nasty, tangy, seemingly store bought sauce... We may try em again, and if things are better... I will definitely review that experience too

We love this place! The Las Vegas roll is the best you'll find around here. Jody is always so welcoming and helpful. My boyfriend also loves the chicken teriyaki roll and anything with eel here. We've never been disappointed.

A hidden GEM… the food was good, service was good, and it didn’t break the bank. The place is clean and everyone is friendly. We got edamame and 3 rolls for two of us - and were more than satisfied!!!“Spicy girl,” “Dragon Roll,” and “Mt Fuji.” Mt Fuji was the favorite, although we’d order all 3 again. We’ll for sure be comming back.
