    New place for me and my ride or die. Came here with my family and I'm not a sushi fan but I did the teriyaki chicken that was the bomb. The sauce is very good and you get quite a bit of chicken and rice and for what little money they charge for it, I was a fan. Very tasty. The fusion music was actually pretty nice to listen to as well. Would come back for sure.

    We absolutely loved the atmosphere here -- it's clean, cozy, and has a really nice vibe. It feels a little more upscale and makes for a great place to sit and relax. We ordered five different rolls to try a good variety. Unfortunately, only one of them really stood out. The others were pretty bland and didn't have much flavor or anything especially unique. They weren't bad, just not very memorable. It honestly feels like you're paying more for the ambiance than for bold, standout sushi. I might come back for the atmosphere, but I do wish the flavors matched the setting a bit more.

    This place is super cute on the inside, cute for a date night or girls night. We were seated and unfortunately it took almost 10 minutes to be acknowledged and that was only because we stopped someone and asked who our server would be. The person we stopped decided that she would be our server. She seemed to be new, so she had someone training her with her as well. Once we got our food and drinks ordered they came out quick. I got the Arizona roll. It was actually really good, but the only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that they put lemon slices, including the brine, in the roll. Next time I would order it without that. Overall they have a ton of sushi options on here. This is an interesting concept being that there are traditional rolls and Mexican rolls as well. I'm sure there's something here for everyone.

    Such a cool restaurant! Great ambiance with good service and amazing food! The Gueritos were my favorite but everything was so good! So much flavor and good sized portions. You won't be disappointed.

    Updating my review! I had dine in for the first time today! I really liked the atmosphere, it's moody, kinda dark, and gives a nice ambiance. The service was great! We came in fairly late, and close to the closing time. (It's my birthday today, and I had a full day with work and class, so I wasn't free until after 9pm.) For it being so late, and with the kitchen closing soon, it was terrific! The rolls were ok, I feel like they tasted better the last time we had tried this place. Our favorite was the carne asada. The dragon roll was nothing special, I always love eel, but it was not the best. The Mexican roll was okay. The crunchy roll is good. The drink was delicious! It was so sweet and refreshing. I'm so glad our waiter recommended it! Our total came out to $118. It did not feel like it was worth the price, but the vibes were there. Overall, it was a decent experience, and I would definitely come back. I would like to try it at a different time of day next time and see if anything is better.

    Went on a Wednesday night and there was a good amount of people in the restaurant, which gave it a nice, lively atmosphere. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was fast. Our food came out in about 15 minutes after we were seated, which was pretty quick considering how busy it was. Overall, the experience was smooth, and everything from seating to getting our meals felt well organized.

    I loved the one in Tempe so I had to try this location! The ambiance is very nice mixture of Mexican and Japanese decor. So beautiful. The food was good. Drinks were yummy I especially liked my Mezcamaica drink! Loved. They did for get things and also put cream cheese in a roll we asked for without.. it was a busy night. Friday night - typical , the employees seemed frantic.. we had to wait 15 minutes to close out. Tempe location is preferred for service!

    Just amazing! Mexican spin on traditional classics. Everything was so yummy. I can't remember which is which since I ordered several different rolls

    Lots of options here for alcohol and sushi, and loved the fried choices! Service was very good. Evening Happy hour prices would've been better on a Monday night, but the food was still pretty good!

    One of my managers recommended this sushi restaurant, so I took them to dinner here. It's a pretty huge restaurant with a variety of sushi choices. I don't remember what my team members ordered, but I had the following. Food: Shrimp Tempura -6 Pieces Crunchy Roll Fried Gyoza The food was good. Nothing really stood out to be different from other sushi restaurants other than the decor. I also had 2 Crown on the rocks. HH menu is good, and I need to try other rolls. I'll stop by again when I'm in town.

    The sushi was okay: tasted fresh, solid portions, and made to order (they did have piles of…read moreCalifornia rolls pre-made sitting on the counter). The restaurant wasn't that busy for the lunch rush, and the waitress was very attentive and helpful. The only downsides I experienced was that there was no hot water running in the bathroom that I could tell, and no paper towels were available to dry my hands or open the bathroom door with. I also had a small fly hovering around me while I ate (I was inside). Thinking about this experience a little deeper however (after the bill) changed things for me a bit. Was the food okay? Yes, I think... Was it noteworthy? Not really. The stacks of premade rolls sitting on the counter made me think twice about ever eating here again. I paid around $45 for lunch after tax and tip. I ordered 6 pieces of nigiri, a tempura roll, a small bowl of miso soup, and an iced tea. I don't consider this anything crazy or over the top. Given this price point I expect hot water and paper towels in the bathrooms, especially if employees who are handling our food use those facilities. 1-star, won't be back... oh, and the soy sauce bottle was literally stuck to the counter. I had to pry it off.

    Stopped by Tomo on Super Bowl Sunday. They had the game playing on one of the TVs, but it was…read morefairly quiet with only a couple of other diners. I love the dark, moody lighting inside. The service was quick and friendly. I ordered Miso Soup ($2.00), which was warm and served as a nice palette cleanser. Baked Mussels ($8.25), loaded with spicy mayo, masago, green onions, and eel sauce. Probably my favorite dish of the night. Vegas Roll ($10.25) is your typical deep fried roll. My partner ordered the Rock n Roll Baked roll ($12.95). We did have to ask for soy sauce and wasabi, as those were not provided. Overall, the food was delicious, I would revisit and recommend.
