    Great! Their fans will tell you Kazoku does not disappoint. Yes, they have fans. Right when we walked into the quaint, comfortable restaurant, customers walking out told us we were in for a treat. The friendly staff sat us quickly and helped us select an order than came out quickly. I ordered a chef's choice nigiri plate that was fresh and clean. The rice was a little stiffer than I prefer, but would absolutely prefer ideal fish than rice, and at Kazoku, that was certainly the case. The rest of the table enjoyed their meals and rolls too and it was reasonably priced. Some of the most flavorful miso soup I've ever had too!

    The sushi was good, loved the spring rolls! Service was nice.. she was quick and helpful. It's a nice place with nice decor. We came for lunch so it wasn't busy at all, everything was fast and fresh, would come again.

    Lunch was amazing today! I am a huge fan of hand rolls and this restaurant can make one out of any roll they have on their menu. I got a salmon skin hand roll and sunset hand roll. Just fantastic combo of sauces, fish and rice. The squid salad here has a very tasty sauce and the cucumbers are perfectly pickled. The service is incredibly fast and super friendly. The only thing to complain about is the cleanliness of the restaurant. I used to come here very often many years ago when it was under different management and it was much cleaner. The bathroom was down right disgusting today

    A surprised stop while driving from Rio Rico to Chandler, small restaurant with nice and fresh selection of sushi, sashimi, etc. Everything was delicious and definitely planning to stop by anytime we are near Tucson!

    They have a decently large menu selection. Service was friendly and quick. The dinner combination (got the Beef Teriyaki and tempura) was largely portioned and tasty. The sushi was decent- not bad and not spectacular.

    Visited Kazoku for lunch and it was delicious! Service was quick and food was amazing. Definitely my new go to. I got a crispy crunch roll with a salmon hand roll and my fiancé got a dragon roll with an eel hand roll.

    I went here for dinner tonight (Monday) and the restaurant was pretty busy. The beef yakitori appetizer is really good. I thought the roll selection is pretty basic but everything tasted fresh. I liked the Kazoku roll, the Eskimo and the spicy tuna rolls. I didn't like the Super Sake roll, it tasted too fishy for me. The Ozeki Nigiri Sake Junmai was really good.

    So my husband and I have mixed feelings about this place. The ambience is nice and the service was very welcoming. However, our food was kind of so-so. My sushi was good, but our shrimp fried rice felt a little bit overcooked and I thought it was odd that they used brown rice, which I haven't seen before in shrimp fried rice. And my husband's pork was also overcooked and it didn't taste very good. We may or may not be back, it is possible another shot, but it wasn't the best first impression.

    Does Kazoku have a full bar?

    I have only seen sake, wine, and beer on their menu and their website.

    Do they have all you can eat?

    Not at night. It's a very excellent menu.

    I don't usually bother to leave reviews but after the wonderful experience I had, I felt the least…read moreI can do is spread the good word. My sister took me to Kintaro as a birthday outing. From the time we arrived to the time we left, the staff were incredibly kind and courteous. Our server Reuben was especially great. As my sister has been here a few times already, Reuben immediately knew her choice of drink and starting appetizer. Any time he was checking in on us, he was incredibly kind and offered some very helpful recommendations. As we were being seated, my sister had mentioned offhand we were celebrating my birthday. Before we received our check when all was said and done, several of the staff took a moment to wish me happy birthday along with a slice of cheesecake! Obligated or not, it was incredibly sweet and I was truly humbled. The food itself was superb. We chose a variety of sushi rolls and each were bursting with a distinctive combination of flavors; everything from sweet and tangy to spicy with the perfect amount of bitterness. Each roll was well crafted had the presentation to match its splendid umami. I can't speak on behalf of the more busy nights but at the time of our meal, the restaurant was pulling in some steady business without feeling noisy or chaotic. Tables were clean, staff were attentive to customers and I just felt so very welcome there. Needless to say, I left Kintaro positively beaming. I'm already looking forward to my next visit which will likely be sooner than later.

    We decided to come back for a celebration on a Saturday evening, and the food was almost as good as…read morelast time. Even though there was a mixup with a duplicate order, I still enjoyed my visit. Since there were so many options, I'm only going over highlights. Favorites: Salmon Volcano, Dragon egg, Salmon Roe sashimi/nigiri, Naruto roll Salmon Volcano: (5/5) Spicy imitation crab wrapped with 4 cooked salmon slices and topped with spicy mayo and sweet eel sauce. Presented beautifully and tastes even better. Dragon egg: (4.5/5) Lots of Imitation crab wrapped with thinly sliced avocado to look like an egg and drizzled with eel sauce and spicy mayo. I mainly like this one because how it looks, the taste is decent but not exceptional. Salmon roe: (5/5) This dish is usually limited at other ayce sushi restaurants because of how expensive it is. At kintaro, it's unlimited, fresh, and you can order it without rice to enjoy more. (Order as sashimi and not nigiri) The taste is very salty and umami. I like to think of it as big caviar. Naruto roll: (4.5/5) Salmon, tuna, other fish, and avocado wrapped with cucumber served in a slightly sour sauce. It has NO rice. Honestly a good pick if you like fish but not rice. Least favorites: snow crab hand roll, fried scallops, miso soup, surf clam Snow crab hand roll: (1.5/5) I'm 90% sure there is no snow crab. It tasted like imitation crab to me. Fried scallops: (1/5) Tasted like imitation crab/fish. It lacked both the slightly chewy and springy texture of scallops and the scallop flavor. Miso soup: (3/5) Last time we were here it was loaded with tofu and seaweed but this time it was just the soup. Surf clam: (2/5) It didn't taste like anything. One issue was the service. The food took 15-30 minutes to come out per order, which was understandable due to how busy the restaurant was, but the worst part is that it came out incomplete so I couldn't tell how much of an order was left before I made a new order. The 2hr time limit doesn't help either. On top of that, our server got our old order confused with a new one so that we ended up getting duplicates of a huge order which we couldn't finish. Luckily, the manager was nice enough to not charge us for the extras if we didn't take them to go and offered us to take the leftovers for $20 if we wanted to take it to go. For the ambiance, it's pretty nice. Music loud enough to mask out the other tables and decorations on the wall. Overall the sushi was mostly fresh and the ambiance is nice, just the food comes out a little slow. I would still highly recommend kintaro.
