    Spicy salmon bomb
    LINA M.

    Came here after seeing the daughter influence me on social media lol it was cool. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upon arriving it was pretty dead inside and the lady owner was in the kitchen so it seems like a family owned restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I mentioned her daughter and she didn't really say much or try to converse so service wasn't anything pretty. We ordered to-go anyway. Took about 15-20 minutes. Ordered both the salmon and tuna inari pocket bombs which were good but very similar in flavor except for the fish options.

    Walking in, a few dirty tables with plates. Only one lady, felt bad for her, hopefully they hire some help. The sushi was good though. We had 4 different rolls, the lobster roll was good. The salmon nigiri didnt look that big, but once you take a bite, its a large piece of salmon. Hard to tell by looking at it. It was kind of hot inside too. Maybe cooler at night.

    Jumbo Salmon Nigiri - so fun!

    Great food, but not the most welcoming service. I was so excited to try Sushi & Joy after seeing their hype online recently. I place my order on their website at about 5:45, and it said it would be ready in 35 minutes. I arrived around 6:15, and my order was just being finished. There were two girls in front of me in line, and the cashier was telling them they had to order online, which I thought was interesting - I hope I misunderstood, but I think she was explaining that they were closing their dining room well before closing. The cashier was fine, but said as few words to me as possible - very little interaction. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, I would come back for takeout because that jumbo salmon nigiri was outstanding, but the ambience didn't feel very welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    HUGE nigiri!! Like longer than my pointer finger. And thicc Tbh it's a lot of fish (~24$ for 6) I liked the plain salmon and my bf liked the seared salmon! Both were good! Not excellent top tier or great quality tbh, but I think the size is what makes it taste better somehow haha

    Was so happy to finally try this place out after seeing the daughter's tiktoks on my FYP for so long. Be prepared for a wait! Whether you order online or in person, whether there is a line or not. They are a real mom & pop shop, I only saw the mom working both the front and back, I think I saw the dad pop out from the back maybe once. The mom was extremely sweet and kind when she was taking everyone's orders and everyone was very patient with her while waiting for their food so that made me happy. We paid $70 for 5 rolls and 1 drink, maybe a little steep but I figure that fresh sushi is more expensive the further inland you go. Next time we come back we will definitely have to try the nigiri, even if we aren't nigiri people they looked incredible at other tables. The shrimp tempura roll, the dragon roll and candy roll tasted great, very happy with those. The spider roll was okay, i think it needed a bit more seasoning on the soft shell crab. The coco roll was also okay, better than the spider roll imo, maybe just a little too much coconut but it did balance out the sliminess of the salmon well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't go to mom and pop shops to rate based on ambiance, it's clean and maintained, that's all you need.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely come back and try again, come here to support local businesses!!

    Fat salmon nigiri, 6 pieces $23
    Stefany V.

    The business name is accurate, I legit got both sushi and joy from my order! Found this spot through a friend's (Angel K, 5 star review below) social media post, specifically for their "fat salmon nigiri" - they have regular salmon or a truffle option, in a thick-cut 6 piece order as a special, for $22.95. You can easily find this online to order, and with tax, tips, and fees it'll be about $30 which feels a touch steep - maybe just walk in and order it, but it wasn't obvious on their printed menu. In any case, these are thick-ass slices of buttery salmon and I really enjoyed my order. I am tempted to try the truffle flavor next time, and wish they had a half and half option. This meal made a good lunch for me, they do offer a similar combo with nigiri, sashimi, and a roll. Their rolls also appeared to be competitively priced - just makes me bummed that I don't live nearby and I'm rarely in this area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]That being said, I went by to pick up an order at 4PM and the lights were off and the dining room had a few dirty tables with food still out as if diners had stood up mid-meal and walked out? Bizarre and not exactly welcoming but this is a small spot with limited staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just a heads up for those dining in. Here's hoping to being in the area again soon to try more! NOTE: If you order online through their site, it appears to have an automatic 50 minute wait time and $3 convenience charge. I was able to pick up sooner, call to see if they can accommodate. Or maybe just call in your order to begin with.

    Seared Salmon Nigiri & Lion King Roll
    Dai D.

    I found out about this family-owned spot on TikTok. I've been there a few times now, (always pickup), mainly because of the nigiri. My go-to order is the Lion King Roll and jumbo salmon nigiri, either seared or fresh. It's not easy to find nigiri that's as fresh and plentiful as this. (Can you tell I love salmon)? I appreciate how they package takeout orders. Sauces are always on the side, and the ginger and wasabi's are separated in foil or everything's in divided containers, so they don't touch the rolls. As someone who never uses either (and forgets to ask for my meal without them), I love that extra care. The sushi itself is good and there's a great variety. That said, [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am not a big fan of the dine-in atmosphere. There's plenty of seating, but it's always dark and I've never really seen anyone eating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's also noticeable clutter behind the counter, such as random boxes and folded clothes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] During today's visit, the lady at the front was very friendly but rang me up with soaking wet hands, which left my card and receipt wet. That was very off-putting to me because she came from behind the curtain, so I don't know if she'd just washed dishes or washed her hands or something. Overall though, the sushi is generous and fresh.

    I FINALLY had the chance to check out Sushi & Joy off Southeastern near the 215 this past Friday night with my little sister, and I can absolutely see why they're gaining so much attention on TikTok and social media. This is a true mom-and-pop shop, run entirely by the owners (just mom and dad), which plays a big role in both the charm and the challenges. The food quality is excellent and definitely lives up to the hype, but because of limited staffing and growing popularity, wait times can be long. I waited about an hour for my two orders, and during that time I did notice a few customers leave due to the wait. That said, the food is worth it. The quality, freshness, and consistency really shine. I enjoyed everything from the salmon nigiri to the jumbo seared salmon nigiri--absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and this is not an all-you-can-eat spot, which I actually appreciate given the care put into each dish. Service was doable considering the circumstances, and the atmosphere is simple but welcoming. Nothing fancy in terms of décor, but the restaurant is very clean and comfortable. They're getting four stars mainly due to staffing-related wait times, not because of the food or effort. My advice: avoid peak lunch or dinner hours if you can. I went around 6 PM on a Friday, and it was very busy. Overall, Sushi & Joy is a fantastic option if you're in the area and craving high-quality sushi from a hardworking mom-and-pop restaurant. Just come prepared to wait--and trust me, once the food arrives, it's totally worth it

    $22.95 for 6pcs.

    My only complaint is this place is way over priced. 6pcs for $22.95 + $3.95 for a Arizona green tea. Total was $29.15. There's AYCE places for $29. The quality was mediocre. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The walls were painted yellow and it was so dark in there like the lights were out?.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Idk I didn't like it.

    Food was super yummilicious and portions were big. Sushi was very fresh and fatty, highly recommend the salmon nigiri.

    Jumbo combo with 3 pieces of salmon nigiri, 2 pieces salmon sashimi, and a salmon roll to go.

    If there is one local small business that I believe deserves massive recognition, it is Sushi and Joy. I found them a few months ago through their daughter's TikTok's (she's gone pretty viral for them.) And what caught my eye were the jumbo nigiri's! So I knew I needed to try them at some point. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are located in Henderson off of eastern and pebble kind of on the side of the shopping center. It is very much a mom and pop restaurant, a complete hole in the wall and you know when you found one of those type of restaurants that's gonna be really good![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've gone there quite a few times over the last few months, I've dined in once and all of the other times I've gotten to-go. It is not an all you can eat sushi restaurant, It is à la cart. For the portion size I would say that the prices are very reasonable. You are not getting small pieces of fish or rolls, they're pretty massive. Dining there is quality over quantity. If you're dining in or getting to-go, you have to understand that this restaurant is run by a mom and dad, it is a literal small business and that it takes a long time to get your order. It is not a fast restaurant, everything is made fresh and made with love. And if you are going there, you need to have the understanding that you will not get your food quickly, but it is worth the wait! When I have done my to-go orders online it's taken over an hour sometimes? an hour and a half? Sometimes I've ordered to-go in the restaurant and it's taken 45 minutes to maybe an hour? Depends if they're busy or not. Their online order portal is pretty easy to navigate. I've had sometimes where the portal will let me pay ahead of time and then other times it's told me I need to pay when I get to the restaurant. I absolutely LOVE their jumbo nigiri's!! Their jumbo seared salmon is my favorite! it is gigantic and you get six massive pieces of seared salmon and a really good amount of rice, perfect ratio for something that big and if you are someone who loves salmon (like me lol) and wants to get the most salmon possible go to Sushi and Joy. Everything is so fresh, the portion sizes are like no other restaurant I've ever been to, like I tend to do a lot of all you can eat sushi and tell me why I can get a jumbo seared salmon nigiri and then like a roll or two and I am super full! Their jumbo combo is fantastic! You get three pieces of jumbo salmon nigiri's, two pieces of salmon sashimi, and a salmon roll. So you can get your salmon fix pretty easily from one of their combo meals. Their rolls are also phenomenal! I've had their who's your mommy roll which is really good and really spicy! Their baked Mountain roll is also really good! When I did dine in, my friend got one of their Ramen bowls and said that it was amazing. Definitely one of my favorite mom and pop restaurants in Las Vegas/Henderson. 10/10!

    saur delish!! i took my food togo and it was so fresh and amazing!! i also really appreciate them taking into consideration the sauces on the side when you do takeout! i was overwhelmed with options! i landed on salmon nigiri (so delish) pink lady roll, ultra tuna roll, and one other roll i cannot remember but everything was so delicious! it does take time to made so definitely need to be patient while going

    Giant salmon nigiri and salmon roll.
    Lloyd B.

    Saw this place on Instagram and wanted to give it a try to feed my salmon Nigiri addiction lol. This spot is amazing, best salmon nigiri I've ever had, almost too overwhelming, I definitely over ordered but I came here after the gym and was starving. Service was perfect and [[HIGHLIGHT]]ambiance is low-key[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

    This is one of the most efficient Sushi places I have ever been at!!!…read moreServers with tablets make sure orders go in instantly while the cheery Chef's in baseball caps work away with absolute speed. Every item was ultra-fresh. Hot when hot and cold when cold. I would order something and just a minute or two it would come out. This was even with an 80% full restaurant. Even more impressive was that hot items came out very, very quickly. Matthew, my server was a cool laid-back guy who was super attentive. Everything he recommended was great! And he checked on almost everything I ordered! Something else impressive was how quickly they clean cleared and reset the tables. It was a team effort. Everyone who was in the restaurant serving or busing helped replace the items on the table. It was very cool to see. I have to mention Cassie, the first and last person I talked to. She greeted me at the door with a happy smile, asked if this was my first time and kindly recommended a lot of wonderful items when explaining the menu. On the way out she thanked me for coming. The space was simply but well decorated. They picked a great upbeat soundtrack for midday. It was a wonderful meal all around! I'll be back for sure.

Also, during our meal, a woman had to be carried out by paramedics, which was quite unsettling. Next time, we'll probably choose another AYCE sushi restaurant that still offers a military discount. There are plenty of great options that appreciate and continue to support military members.

We decided to sit at the sushi bar, which turned out to be a great choice. It gave us the opportunity to interact with the chef and watch him prepare everything right in front of us. You could immediately tell how talented and experienced he was just by watching his knife skills and the care he put into every dish. We started with the Albacore Tuna, cut into six beautiful slices. It was incredibly tender and practically melted in our mouths. It was so good that we ate it before we even thought about taking a picture! I ended up finding a photo of it on TARU's website because it deserved to be included. Next, we had a Salmon Roll, and then we decided to put ourselves in the chef's hands and asked him to make us a Chef's Surprise. He prepared a beautiful plate featuring four different types of fish, and this time we remembered to take a picture! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and delicious. To finish the evening, the chef surprised us with a dessert of fresh oranges with a touch of liqueur. It was light, refreshing, and the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. What really made the evening memorable was the combination of excellent sushi and the personal experience at the sushi bar. Our chef was cordial, engaging, and clearly very talented at his craft. If you enjoy high-quality sushi and are looking for a special experience while in Las Vegas, TARU is definitely worth a visit. We would absolutely go back!

Chef Shuji runs the restaurant with his wife next to him in the kitchen. The fish here is flown in from Japan and of the highest quality as you can see from the sheen and fat marbling. The tuna melts in your mouth and bite after bite is a wonderful experience as you pair it with soy sauce, fresh Wasabi, yuzu Wasabi, or some combination of the condiments provided. This is also the first sushi restaurant I have ever been to that automatically brings out fresh Wasabi without having to ask. The portions are generous and we left feeling very satisfied. Even though we were very full, we took a look at the dessert menu. Not pictured here is a sweet potato with ice cream and brown sugar glaze. This dish on the menu was unassuming but the taste was so decadent. Quite possibly the best and sweetest sweet potato I have ever tasted. The chef slowly roasts them over a 2 hour period, rotating the potatoes every so slightly every 15 minutes. The sweet potato could be a dessert by itself, it was that good! Chef Shuji is a charming and funny host. He regularly comes out to greet his customers and makes sure they are enjoying their meal, very high-touch. If you know Japanese - even if it's just a few phrases, speak with him as he will be delighted. He was absolutely tickled when we said arigato and he shared that he is originally from Kyoto. Cannot wait to return to Shigotonin!
