    Thank you Yelp for helping me locate a sushi restaurant that stays open between lunch and dinner with good rating and good reviews. I'm in town for work and was craving some sushi and glad that I took a chance on this place even though it seemed out of my way. The staff greeted me as soon as I walked through the door and I was seated quickly. It just so happened that they were having happy hour specials (it was around 2:00 or so on a Thurs). I got the crispy rice spicy tuna, sunomono and the house special roll all at a discount due to the happy hour and everything tasted great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is clean the bathrooms are clean parking is easy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would recommend this place!

    Yelp SPAM scale Service - 3 / 10 Price - 2 / 10 Ambiance - 4 / 10 Meal - 3 / 10 Arrived and was immediately sat at our table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great decorations and spacious for dining with options for indoor/outdoor as well at the sushi bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 1st time trying this local eatery and not sure we'll be back. Appetizers -Squid salad was nice, but overpriced -Edamame was over cooked / steamed and the chili was seasoning tasted off -cucumber salad had hardly any seasoning Dinner (2) different sushi rolls (can't say we liked the sushi rolls). No offense but we've had better sushi from Sprouts and AJ's. 2 drinks (beer and wine) - beer was nice and cold. In this economy you want value for your money and for what we ordered I can't say we got that. 80$ plus tip

    Tried Kay Sushi today, super convenient to where I live. It has a lovely outdoor patio with water fountain and bamboo, so pretty. Inside the decor is nice, different shades of green walls and one unobtrusive Tv, which is nice . Some places have so many tvs and the sound is so loud, but at Kay Sushi only my and the sound is muted.. They have a nice variety of rolls and a pretty extensive menu. A nice touch, they serve water with a side of lemons in a small wooden box, little details like this are so nice. I ordered the cucumbers and they weee deckuckus, cold and crunchy. My lunch date ordered got miso soup with his order and it was served which kept the soup piping hot, it also had sliced mushrooms along with the seaweed. We ordered a variety's of rolls and they were quite good. The staff is really nice and attentive. The dress I wore was a slippery materiel and my napkin on my lap slipped onto the floor, the server noticed this and quickly brought me a new napkins. So thoughtful and I didn't even ask for one. I will definitely be back and it's literally less than a mile from home!!

    CHICKEN KATSU

    Got both the chicken and pork katsu from here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere and service was amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would definitely go back.

    Nabeyaki Udon
    Cindy C.

    Kay sushi has beautify dining room with separate drink bar and sushi bar. Hubby was in the mood for noodles so we ordered Nabeyaki udon. The picture doesn't show all the seafood included in this dish. It had large prawn, large scallop, lots of shrimps and squid. The broth was good but tad bit bland. The lunch combo unagi bowl and tempra was really good. Nice crispy veggies and prawns were tasty. The unagi bowl only had 3 pieces of unagi; wish it had more. Overall fun place to eat even though it was little out of the way for us. Enjoy. Would Recommend.

    SUSHI MIX

    Excellent food, made fresh and from the heart! I love the amount of care and love they put into every dish. The sushi is amazingly fresh, flavorful and the presentation is the cherry on top! They serve sushi, Thai, Chinese and several other dishes. The service is always kind, professional and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is definitely one of the cleanest restaurants in north Scottsdale.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I highly recommend Kay Sushi to anyone!

    Ahi Tuna Tataki

    Victory Sushi My boyfriend and I went here to celebrate a promotion I received and sushi is always my favorite way to party! We started off with the pork gyoza which were fresh from the pan and they came with a unique sweet and sour sauce. It was joy like the traditional sweet and sour but it had more of a tangy flavor then sour. Next I got my absolute favorite dish which is yellowtail jalapeño in yuzu sauce. The fish was fresh and the sauce was light and citrusy. For the main courses I got the ahi tuna takai roll and my boyfriend got teriyaki chicken and Philadelphia rolls ( he is still learning to get use to sushi!) My roll had seared tuna on top and spicy tuna in the middle, so delicious! For dessert our waiter Brooke, recommend their crispy green tea waffle. THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST WAFFLES OF MY LIFE! It literally was right out of the waffle iron and on to the plate. They put Carmel sauce on top of it and served it with vanilla ice cream. The matcha was not overpowering but the flavor was strong. If you took a bit of the waffle with the ice cream was pure bliss. Can't wait to go back and try other rolls and of course get another waffle!

We made our way down the stairs and the hostess was there ready to check us in. We didn't wait at all and got seated right away. Once seated it took a while for the server to come take our order. There was live music going on which kept us entertained for the time being. After about 15 minutes, she finally came over to greet us and take our drink orders. We ordered: 1 WILD STRAWBABY - Ocho Blanco Tequila, Bergamot, Strawberry, Pineapple, Lemon, Almond Milk $22 1 50 FIRST DATES - Bumbu Rum, Cascara, Brown Sugar Date Syrup, Coconut Milk, Cinnamon Sprinkle $22 1 BLUEBERRY MULE - Blueberry, Lime, Ginger Beer $13 The drinks didn't take too long and another bartender dropped them off. Water was never offered to us and was only given to us after we asked. All the other tables were given water once they were seated. Our drinks were good but we chose to just have one each and we left. The live music was great. The musician was playing the piano and kept it fun and upbeat. The inside is pretty cool and unique but service could've definitely been better though. *There's a $10 cover fee per person when there is live music*

Honestly, I have no idea how it got those reviews. Maybe they're paid, I'm not sure, but based on my experience I would not go back. The biggest issue was the service. We arrived and were told to sit anywhere we wanted. After sitting down, we waited about 20 minutes and no one ever came to our table. No greeting, no water, nothing. Eventually I had to walk up to the bar and ask what the procedure was. Do we order at the bar? Do you have table service? No one could give a clear answer. They just kept saying, "If you want, you can order here." That's not the point. If I sit down at a restaurant, I expect someone to come to the table and explain how things work or take our order. If the system is that you order at the bar, just say that clearly so people know what to do. The drinks were also very mediocre. Nothing special at all. Honestly, they tasted like something you could throw together at home with soda, alcohol, and ice. The surprising part is that the food was actually phenomenal. The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing. The dishes were delicious and probably the best part of the entire experience. But great food alone isn't enough to make me return somewhere with poor service and forgettable drinks. My recommendation is don't waste your time on a Sunday brunch. There are plenty of other brunch spots with good food and good service.

He knew the menu inside and out and we also took most of his recommendations. We chose food first, then talked to the Som who was professional and awesome as well. First time here and thought oh no this is in the W where Sushi Roku used to be, let's see how it is. And it didn't disappoint. We started off with the meatballs. The sauce was fantastic not too salty and not too sweet it was great. The beef carpaccio was also amazing. Not a huge fan of the mushrooms but they were good and the shaved parm and toasted pine nuts were a great added touch. We ordered a bunch of stuff and shared. The chicken parm yes was awesome. Filling! It is their staple and it should be ordered. $68 for it was a little high IMO for chicken, but it was a double breasted. We got two pastas the lobster fettuccine and the Vodka pasta. Both were great you can see the pics. I personally loved the Vodka pasta mixed in with the burrata. The place was remolded nicely. We sat toward the back but go the whole view of the restaurant. It was decorated nice and they had their theme and it works. The bar looked cool. They had the drink cart guy and he seemed to be making people happy and they were all recording him. Overall I'd be back it was fantastic.

The…read moreservice was attentive and I loved that they didn't rush us through our meal so we really got to soak it all in and enjoy it Saturday night dinner. Love the special touches like the light at your table to call the martini cart bartender over to do table side personalized martinis. Our waitress was phenomenal and offered so many helpful menu tips as well. For the ambiance, think dark, moody, and sexy vibes. Even though the exterior and bathroom areas of the W Hotel are under construction, the ambiance within the restaurant is beautiful and unaffected. I also appreciated their waiting area with seating and TVs so we could catch the very end of the World Cup game! The food and drinks were amazing. I had a delicious mocktail with elderflower - dare I say one of the best I've ever had...I'd go back for just that! Everyone else at our table loved their martinis as well. Often when you dine at these new aesthetic spots in Phoenix/Scottsdale the food disappoints - but not here. Only dish we didn't love was the chicken piccata which was a bit plain. My vodka pasta and the braised beef pasta were delicious and flavorful. And let's not forget the dessert offerings: gelato, affogato, and tiramisu were all so good! I'll definitely return here it was top tier all around!
