Was amazing I had the new dish of Chicken Katsu Curry Udon and it was the highlight of my day. It's so homey and savoury delicious. If you've ever had original curry you know how amazing it is! read more

Hiro's Sushi Bar - Japanese Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

Had sushi with my son, daughter in law, and grandson at Hiro's Sushi Bar in flagstaff Arizona. It's their favorite sushi place. Pretty good for a land locked state. Fish was fresh and quite a good selection of special rolls offered on the menu. They even had a child's plate for my grand baby. Chicken and rice kept him happy. Service was fair, they weren't full, but apparently there was a large party that was keeping our server and the sushi chefs busy. Typical sushi or Japanese restaurant motif, efficient but somewhat spartan. I like the sushi bar with glass so that you can see the fish and watch the chefs prepare your order if you're so inclined. I'll be back the next time I'm in flagstaff. read more

Although the food was very good, amazing tempura - great rolls! The service was so poor, we will not be returning. If you're looking for rude remarks and empty water glasses, this is your place! read more

I ordered some sashimi: yellow tail, salmon and hotate plus salmon skin sushi. He had the pork tonkatsu with miso soup, salad and white wine. Our waitress was super sweet and very attentive. You deserve 5 stars today. We were pleased. TY :) read more

Happy meal! Very good sushi and sashimi place in flagstaff near the lodges area When we already had too many burgers and steaks! read more

Perfect sushi spot, go for the sushi stay for the tea, idk what kind it is but it's the best I've had!

Our family went for lunch. I ordered sashimi. The fish tasted old, and the service was more than subpar. First, our server took 10 minutes before he came to our table. Then, he hardly said two words to us when we first arrived. The only thing he said to us was, "straw? " We were absolutely disappointed and will not be returning. Also, one table had a stack of takeout boxes on it. Not a good look. I recommend going to Karma where the sushi is fresh, and customer service is fantastic. The ambience is also MUCH better than heroes. read more

I'm a local and I've eaten at Hiro for years. The food is always great. I love their steamed dumplings, perhaps the best. The sushi is excellent. The people are like family, kind and welcoming. read more

The customer service is really good. Every time I'm in Flagstaff I've had sushi here, and the sushi has always been delicious and fresh. read more

Standard, decent quality Japanese food. I had one of the sushi bowls--the rice was cooked perfectly, the fish wasn't too cold and was reasonably fresh, and the seasonings were just right for the dish. It wasn't special, but it was satisfying and well prepared. read more

*NOT* the same company as Hiro Sushi in Scottsdale. Just a lousy place. Drab decor, weak service, almost awful food. The only reason that they didn't get 1 star is because the servers were at least reasonably pleasant. The service was bizarre. We had to ask for water, utensils, any help....and it took a fair bit of time for each. And the two servers who were tag-teaming (we don't know why, as it wasn't busy) were just kind of strange. The edamame was dry and looked freezer-burned. And not salted. We then had shu-mai dumplings. Anemic, tasteless, overcooked. read more

One of our favorite places for rolls. Better than Karma in our opinion. Finally a place that actually doesn't skimp. ^_^

I'm not a fan of Poke because I don't like raw fish but man.... their Ono Bowl is DELICIOUS!!! Visited Flagstaff and had dinner to-go at this place but I made sure to call ahead since I had a feeling they were going to be busy. I was right! Even when I called my order in, it took 45-50 mins for it to be ready. I would normally be pissed about the wait time but the food was so good that I actually didn't mind. No wonder they're busy! Their food is good! I had the tempura meal and my husband and teen daughter had Ono poke bowl and after having a little taste ... I had to switch halfway with my husband. I've been to hawaii and I can't believe I had one of the best poke in Flagstaff! Hahaha Anyways, give em a try! Call AHEAD to order on weekends. It seems like they get super busy. Sorry no pics of the food. We were super hungry read more

Hiro's Sushi Bar - front - Japanese Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

As always, great food, friendly servers. We've been coming here for almost 20 years and it's absolutely a family favorite.

The moment you walk in the door, you're greeted by a guy who obviously hates his job. Our server was a bit better but absolutely no personality at all. Food was ok. Not really sure how they stay in business. Too many other sushi restaurants in town. Won't be back read more

I don't ever leave a bad review as I don't like to give negativity to others....but it's probably because I don't care about the place as I know I will never go back. Well, as a Japanese who grew up in Tokyo, I do care that this place has a name of a Japanese person and this restaurant is trying to represent our country....so in hopes of them making a huge difference to be better, I will be dead honest about this place. The atmosphere is good and the service was great. Everyone is friendly and there's no complaints there. But the food was not good at all. I was raised never to leave anything on your plate so I always finish everything on my plate but i couldn't. I ordered chicken katsu don as I was super hungry and thinking you could not go wrong with Oyakodon(that's what we call the food in Japan) but I was sadly disappointed. The non sticky rice was swimming in the soup of sauce which was extremely salty. It's very obvious that they have not had a real Oyakodon before. You can get Oyakodon 10 times better with less than $3 in Japan...even at Seven Eleven. I know this isn't Japan but there's no special ingredient that is hard to get for that food so I expected it to be much better when it's priced $17. My daughter ordered yakisoba which had nothing in it other than noodles and it was not with authentic spices. They said they used Japanese sauce but it was something else. Well, it was eatable for my daughter and the waiter tried to meet our request and they seem to have tired their best so I didn't say anything. My husband ordered unagi don as it's my daughter's favorite food and my husband was not that hungry so he was going to share that with her but she took one bite and never wanted to eat any more. We didn't order any sushi so I can't say anything about it but the quality of the rice was terrible so I don't know if you can make good sushi rice with that. I highly doubt that the owner is Japanese. If he is, then he should be ashamed of himself for serving the food tastes like that as Japanese food. They are not Japanese food. I'm sorry I didn't say anything there as when the waiter came asking how everything was, I was on the business call and my American husband said everything was great I told him I wasn't going to say everything was good...and I was actually going to suggest how to cook those dishes right but it was too late. I was going to leave this alone and forget about it but I can't stand the thought of someone who's never had any Japanese food going there for the first time and thinking that is what the Japanese food is all about. I do care that much so please have someone (even a local Japanese house wife who can cook) show you how it should be done. Or better yet, make a trip to Japan one day and actually eat the food there so you know that's not Japanese food you are serving. I was going to give only one but the house salad was very good and my husband was super happy about the beer with sake bomb so I am giving two stars Wishing you the best read more

Best sushi spot in Flagstaff! Quality is great, solid service, and consistently great.

I hope ownership sees this post and addresses the issues. I have been going to Hiro's for 20+ years, and hated seeing what I saw yesterday. The lunch waiter needs training. Talks too low, mumbles, and not friendly. The California Rolls were pre-made, which seemed like something I would get from Safeway. The Teriyaki Chicken was not hot, barely warm, obviously previously frozen (maybe store purchased pre-grilled?), and not enough Teriyaki sauce. The meal wasn't very good. The soup was ok. read more

Where to begin, walk through the door, and the host/waiter just abrupt and not remotely friendly. Walks us to a table drops the menus walks away. Ok, here we go, let the games begin. So we said let just see how this is, high hopes inbound. Appetizer of takoyaki, might as well call them bbq sauce balls, heavy is the hand on this one. Couldn't taste anything but the drenched coating off their bbq sauce. So that's a bust. I tried their nigri combo, ok before you judge saying well it is fish. I've had sushi everywhere around. I've been to Japan, fresh fish isn't fishy tasting or smelling. You know what is? Not fresh fish, every piece of the nigri was fishy tasting and smelling, the only one that wasn't was the seared Tuna. I wonder why, because it got seared. We tried the Las vegas roll just to see, and that thing was so bland I dipped it in the leftover bbq sauce from the takoyaki just to finish a piece or 2. Amongst all this was our same waiter, who just drops your food, never refilled any drinks. He literally drops the bill on the corner and walks away. I honestly will say this is worse than grocery store sushi. That's saying something, there wasn't any aspect of this meal that was good. The "Japanese" salad was ice berg lettuce with some sort of dressing. The miso was decent, though, so I guess if you want miso soup, here ya go. Honestly, just go somewhere else. Save your money, time, and taste buds. Hiro is just plain bad, I can see why other reviews talk about how they go to other places now. read more

Great food, great ambiance, and great staff! Everyone we were with loved it! We will be back!

Feels traditional, quiet ambiance. I've been ordering sushi from here for 12 years, and the quality has been consistent all that time. Friendly staff. Wish they had an all-you-can-eat menu for sushi/sashimi. read more

I am so disapointed with our dinner. Service was good but the food was below the par and way over priced. The following is a list things that really should be inproved. Have some pride with a decent attempt to have well presented and prepared Japanese cusine. Maybe Sedona being a tourest town does not need to keep a regular clientle. * Sunamono Cucumber salad. Just 12 slices of cuccumber with Rice vinegar at. $6.50 * We ordered the Sashimi platter $65.00 .The fish was not fresh and was served with a" raw onion garnish' Really ? * Sukiyaki noodles were boring and over salted with a worcestershire sause out of a bottle, no garnish, no vegys for color, not even a scallion, It looked like it was thrown on the plate and served in a hurry. Where is the love? * Teriyaki Salmom .The fish was tasty but again no presentaion or garnish , just a cold bottled teriyaki sause pourerd on top.? * Two half glasses of Draft beer . The said they needed to change the keg.?. * A Hefty $210.00 bill for what ? I hope they read these comments and take action but maybe with so many new travelers to fill the seats who cares? sadly to say..... read more

Been there several times. The food and selection are very good. The prices are fair although the edamame at $5.50 seems a bit overpriced. The service is inconsistent. read more

Love the food! We have our favorite rolls and always grab appetizers for $2 with big beers. Service is always reliable and fish is always fresh. read more

Always great service and dependably tasty. This is some of the best sushi in the Flagstaff and Sedona area.

This sushi place is above excellent I would give it more stars and possible the ambience the food everything was perfect the wait staff was on top of everything from The second you walk in we ordered the Bento platter machine it was excellent the sushi was perfect tight and delicious the shrimp tempura was outstanding the place was genuinely clean and classy this is definitely an upscale place Without acting like it is a clientele wizard of all walks of life and it works they have a sushi bar right there where you can actually sit at the counter and watch them make it the soup was excellent the sashimi was excellent the whole experience was perfect read more

We arrived in town late after a long drive and didn't feel like eating out, so we decided to order takeout to take back to the hotel. My husband was in the mood for sushi so this was what we found on yelp that was still open. The quality and freshness of the fish/sushi was definitely not as great as we had hoped. For the price we paid, it was not worth it. It's comparable to sushi in a mall food court. I didn't end up finishing the sushi. The salad dressing was a vinaigrette instead of the typical ginger dressing. It was actually not too bad. read more

Difficult review. The food selection and portions are great. Nice big cuts of fish for sashimi and really nice roll interpretations. Unfortunately the fish quality is not there. The fish is served on a warm/room temperature plate, so unless you eat it quickly it spoils at room temp. Some of the more unique plate (salmon roe, and BBQ eel) really don't taste right. Somewhat metallic and/ or preserved. The ginger is jus slopped on a plate. There is little are or attention to detail. Finally the services is almost a disinterested approach. There is a lack of care in the service which may be what translate into a lack of care in the quality of the food. The Japanese care about detail....this place does not. Honestly I'd look elsewhere for Japanese the next time I'm in Flag. read more

Hands down the best sushi in Flagstaff. The portions of fish are generous and the owner has gone out of his way in the past to ensure that we were served only top quality, fresh ingredients. They have an amazing ala cart menu for nigiri and fantastic lunch specials. Ambience is wonderful, it's always calm with good lighting. Don't let the location discourage you from dining! read more

Sashimi Deluxe 44 and Super Alaska sushi roll was good 4/5 Very bad customer service. The system they have for taking orders is super old school and inefficient which explains the LONG wait time. read more

Pleasant and authentic Japanese food experience that was heartwarming for out of towner's like us that are used to having great Japanese food at home. As always, I had vegetable tempura and I'm happy to report it was delightful! Not too oily and the dipping sauce was excellent. Hubby had beef teriyaki and his was perfectly cooked and sauce again was spot on. The limited hours (closed at 8:30) and the turned up seating on many of the tables emphasized the lack of a crowd there and made me think they couldn't wait to close up and get out of there for the night. Too bad because the food was better than decent and the service was friendly and prompt. * In addition they have a cute little gift and candy store with Asian treats and goodies. This is a gem of a place. I want to tell the owners NOT to throw in the towel. Keep all the chairs on the floor until you've actually closed for the night. A smaller space in terms of square footage might work better. Keep up the good Japanese food! read more

Not what we expected for the amount money spent. We were greeted immediately but reservations was never needed even though it was told we needed. The ambiance is lacking that sushi bar feel, it was dark and dirty. Looked like it was a teriyaki restaurant more than a sushi bar restaurant. Jonathan was our server he was very nice. No Sapporo on draft, no soy sauce plates provided before food was dropped. Presentation was hideous for $30 plate sashimi, FB pictures didn't look nothing like that. Our server had his fingers touched on our plates and soy cup while dropping them off to the table and Jonathan forgot to mention about the upcharge $1 for the substitute sashimi since we didn't like the mackerel it was horrible ( that is not a sashimi) it was so disgusting I couldn't eat more. Only thing was good was the cucumber sunomono and the sunrise roll. Baked mussels was mehhh. Also after our dinner our stomachs weren't feeling well. read more

Absolutely 5 stars all the way for this great dining restaurant, place was very cozy, very clean, service great, but what impressed us the most was the sushi Absolutely fresh and prepared perfectly... we Absolutely well be returning to this restaurant located in Flagstaff Arizona... read more

I love their lunch specials so much! It's a lot of food for the money. Service is always friendly.

Went there for lunch with a group, were the first people in there. Took over 20 minutes to place our order, and then over 1 hour to receive our lunch, which we had to take to go. Got back to the office and one order was missing. Before this we've had good experiences and good sushi, but this was a disappointment. read more

I like Hiro's, they have a plethora of really creative rolls that you won't see anywhere else in town except when they are copied and name the same at Karma. Their salmon and tuna are very fresh. I have been to Hiro's for 15 years now, never once got sick. Service is quick but not too quick, decor is just fine, music varies from American pop song redone by Japanese artists to Smooth California Jazz a la Kenny G. Restroom are very clean. Some of my favorite rolls include the Firecraker, New York, Super Spider, Ocean and Volcano. They also have noodle soups and teriyaki for people who are not into raw fish. One tiny negative is the burnt soy smell that will follow you home. Hiro's is hands down the best sushi place in Flagstaff. Enjoy some "Schweet" sushi! read more

I would give 0 stars but it won't allow the option. I'm from California and was visiting some friends who live in Flagstaff for a birthday. We ordered a bottle of Sake for the table and upon being prompted for IDs, was told that an Arizona license would be required for ordering alcohol. We had never heard this rule before and upon asking for clarification received an unprofessional answer as well as that an Arizona license would be needed to order alcohol from our waiter. This shifted the entire mood of the night from a celebration to confusion. In addition, the service was poor following this confusion and our waiter rarely checked up on us. read more

The sushi was some of the worst I've ever had. Mushy rice on the rolls and some of the fish had a funky flavor. The edamame also seemed like it was previously frozen. Probably fine for a sushi joint close to a college campus but that's about it. read more

We just moved to Flagstaff and our Realtor recommended Hiro sushi bar. Went for lunch yesterday and I have to say, our experience was fabulous! I am originally from Maui, born and raised and we have some of the best sushi chefs in Hawaii. Hiro sushi meets all my expectations. We ordered the Las vegas roll, Volcano roll and NY roll I also ordered the ramen, it was 47 degrees outside and I wanted hot ramen, in Hawaii we call it saimin and it was excellent!!! Service was amazing, everyone including owner greeted us as we walked in and as we left. They practiced the Aloha spirit which is what will make us continue go back. Thank you Hiro sushi for making us feel welcome and at home. read more
