    Restaurant Week menu with blue fin nigiri, cucumber salad, red dragon roll and blanquita roll
    Mehruba A.

    Was in the area and decided to try this place out via their restaurant Week menu options. It was an amazing deal for 2 cucumber salads, an order of nigiri, 2 rolls and dessert. I placed the order to go and they had very convenient parking right in front of the window to pick up. The food was amazing, fish tasted really good, can never go wrong with a cucumber salad. The person who handed me my order was really nice and my order was ready when I arrived. There is good amount of parking available too. Would definitely return to try their matcha next!

    Ordered pick up from their restaurant week menu. The box was super cute and spill/mess proof. There wasn't any wasabi or ginger included though. I really enjoyed the blanquita roll as it was a bit spicy. The seaweed salad had a smoky taste, and the cucumber salad had great flavor. I also got a raspberry matcha, which was really good too. The pickup window was cute and made picking up the order easy.

    Ube matcha
    Cammi P.

    If you love sushi and matcha, this is your spot! The Ube Matcha was a dream. Perfectly sweet and salty, with the perfect balance of ube and matcha. It was truly perfection. Ordering was fairly easy, with the staff nearby to kindly help. The whole place, both inside and outside was very clean. Food came quickly and was prepared nicely. I tried spam for the first time, and while I'm not to sure if I'm a fan, all the sushi was so incredibly fresh and delicious. And, besides the ube matcha being the star of the show, the banana bread coffee cake was absolutely incredible. I fear I could eat it every day. The prices were amazing. I can't wait to make this my new go to spot for matcha sushi. Truly the best of both worlds!

    Blackberry Crush & Red Velvet Matcha (both drinks were already mixed)

    Had this place saved for awhile now and was in the area so I was finally able to check it out! I went in for matcha, I was so indecisive on what to get because everything sounded so good but the friendly staff definitely helped me make my decision! I had their blackberry crush, it was perfectly tart and delicious!! Matcha was the perfect color so I already knew it was going to be amazing. The weather was beautiful so my friend & I decided to sit outside and enjoy the sun for a bit. We had a great time!! Next time, I need to try their sushi!!

    Minnow has an absolutely top tier happy hour!! The deals are pretty darn good for the area, and the cocktails and delicious! I love that they are all batched. The staff were also sooo fun and nice. They let us sample some of the drinks. The patio is really nice! It was a decent size and was shady too, so I could see it being great even into the summer. The inside was cute as well. The sushi was pretty good! I really liked the spicy scallop and veggie roll a lot. I would get those again anytime. I think that the speciality rolls that we ordered were good but not as good as the classic rolls. The flavors were a little muddled imo. Likewise, the rolls were falling apart. Delicious, but unwieldy I really want to come back and have the matcha one day when I'm in the area. Highly suggest Minnow if you love sushi and cocktails - I feel like this place is for sure going to blow up.

    Minnow rocks!! They've got the best sushi and matcha and it's one of the few places with good hojicha. I wish they did reverse happy hour more often and I need to try the bagels. I look forward to going to more community events as well!

    I was surprised by the vibe of this place--it's more laid back and casual than I expected. I liked that, though. Ordering through a kiosk and taking a number was easy enough. I would say the prices here are about average for sushi in the area. Their selection of options is nice, not overwhelmingly large. We tried a few different special rolls. Their veggie roll and their eel were my favorites. Their matcha and Hojicha beverage options are great, and I could see myself coming back for just a drink. I'd recommend this for a nice weekend lunch, especially with the patio seating.

    Banana coffee cake
    Debbi P.

    Cutest sushi restaurant!!! Amazing sushi, matcha drinks and pastries!!!! Freshest ingredients!!!! You place your own order, but the staff is such a great help. They are the most friendliest, most helpful staff and it's the absolute cleanest cafe. Plenty of seating inside or out.

    Mango, black sesame
    Christine D.

    Being a matcha bar, I had very high expectations for this place. Here they serve both sushi and matcha, and you order what you want at a kiosk. It wasnt very busy when we came, so there wasn't much of a wait. We ordered a mango and black sesame matcha at the kiosk, then went to the bar to watch them make our drinks. Each matcha drink was whisked to perfection. In my opinion, the matchas tasted just ok. You can tell the quality of the matcha is good, however I have had better tasting matcha. It is a bit grassy, and could have been a little sweeter.

    Left - swim break Right - red dragon

    Just happen to be driving by the other day and saw this place. I thought I would stop in and try it out after looking over the website. I noticed they had happy hour prices from 8 to 9 which is perfect for anytime I need to head out for a quick bite in the evening. My son loves sushi and lower prices always help with the amount he usually eats. This place was casual and affordable. Nice and clean. With a nice patio. I look forward to when the fireplace is lit. Everyone was super nice! And the service was fast. If you're looking for a casual sushi place this is a great option in this area. We went for the traditional spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls. Tasted fresh and had a nice little mild kick. 2 for $12. We also ordered the red dragon which had a great spicy and sweet flavor to it. The swim break was my least favorite. I think it might've been the sauce. I liked it but I think it would've been better if it had been drizzled over instead of poured over. It drowned out the flavors of the fish. I will definitely come back here for happy hour. And look forward to trying some of the other specialty rolls. There's a lot of interesting sounding mixes.

    Black sesame matcha, California roll, edamame
    Holly J.

    Let me start off by saying the matcha was amazing. I'm super picky about my matcha because a lot of places are either too sweet, all milk, or super grainy/chalky. This place was none of those. May have found my go to matcha spot in Scottsdale. The reason for the 4 stars is the food is nothing super special. I got the California roll and edamame. California roll is similar to what you can get at an AJs but a little fresher since the roll hasn't been sitting in a fridge. Edamame was way too soft and lacked any flavor besides the salt sprinkled on top. You also need to pay extra for ginger, wasabi, and sauces outside of soy sauce. Overall, I would def come back for the matcha but prob skip out on the food!

    Matcha latte blackberry!

    To say I had been impatiently waiting to try Minnow would be an understatement... and I had high expectations. For some businesses that might lead to disappointment and an inevitable upside-down smiley face, but not for Minnow! Ordered a couple of sushi rolls - the Blanquita Roll and the Saguaro Roll. Both were spectacular, fresh, and offered a delightful combination of flavors that made my tastebuds and belly happy! I love that they provided gluten-free soy sauce for my rolls to take a dip in. I washed it down with the Blackberry Matcha! It was tasty... and I would order it again... but definitely would keep it at 25% sweetness. Can't wait for next time to try the Goma Matcha! I'm a fan of Minnow! Gluten-free rating: *****FIVE STARS***** Overall rating: *****FIVE STARS*****

    Iced Miso & a Blackberry Matcha
    Tammy M.

    Such a cool place with some cool vibes. The decor is nice and the inside was very clean. We didn't really interact with the workers but the worker that brought us our order seemed friendly. I ordered the miso matcha and it wasn't my favorite. It was very salty, bitter, and it was just a random combination that didn't sit well with me. The blackberry matcha was really good!
