Sushi Time - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

The smell of fried foods and oil is soooo strong makes it hard to enjoy the fresh sushi

The sushi is average. It's a very small restaurant with only 7 tables in all, along with a bar. They have a very small menu and limited sushi options. The specials are a good deal as far as price is concerned. The workers are very nice and friendly. Over all this is a very average experience, nothing awful but nothing wonderful. read more

Sushi looks and tastes great! Best ive had in AZ so far. Cute place & really nice servers but it took a LONG TIME. I'll be back though :) read more

Have you ever been chased out of the restaurant by an angry restaurant owner that gets pissed because you asked him to make you another roll of sushi because the salmon he gave you smells and tastes bad??? Well, this is your first chance if you've never experienced the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Available in Phoenix. I have no respect for this kind of attitude and lack of anger management that happened tonight in from of multiple guests at the restaurant that just stood up and left after seeing what was taking place. This restaurant owner had no boundaries and accused me of not wanting to pay and kept physically pushing me to return to pay for the meal that I didn't eat and the drink that I had Just started... this is unbelievable!!! Everybody was looking at this business owner in panic as he was pushing me and threatening to hit me in the face with his fist. HOW CAN YOU TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS THAT WAY??? Don't you think about the clientele you might be losing for putting out this horrible spectacle and horrid show in front of families??? Did you notice the customers you lost forever besides me??? This business should have its business license removed based on the premises of bad customer service, rage and angry insults towards paying customers that all they want is to buy food that taste good, customers bring you business and should be allowed to let you know when something doesn't taste good. This business owner should learn business basics 101 "your customer is always right" even if you don't like it! You lose more by fighting, insulting and arguing with your customers... you could have just made another roll but you took this to a whole new level, you should rethink your business strategy next time, keep the $20 that I gave you when you chased me outside, I know you probably need it more than me! read more

Extremely disappointed today. I finally came to try this place with my family and it was incredibly said to see by far the worst customer service from an OWNER of a restaurant! I witnessed such a terrible and extremely embarrassing situation with the OWNER of the restaurant horribly attacking a CUSTOMER in front of everyone tonight. How? When? Why? Would this even happen to a customer who just wanted to enjoy dinner at this sushi restaurant that doesn't even deserve ONE star review. The food was not even great. And experiencing this and trying to enjoy dinner at the same time was not pleasant at all, this just made it worse! Please safe yourself some time and DO NOT come here. You just never know if you are next to make this owner so deeply angry to almost punch you for not paying dinner that you didn't eat because it was not fresh! HELLO it's sushi!! It's suppose to be fresh or you can get horribly sick! Shame on you owner!!! I feel terrible for that gentleman! read more

Moving from California , I was hoping to find a new sushi place that Me an my fiancée can rely on when we crave it. This place makes the best crunchy rolls & shrimp tempura's EVER! So fresh and tasty! read more

I originally came across this hole in the wall bc it was pretty close to home and I must say I can't get enough. I've taken several people here too and they all agree that the food and atmosphere are excellent. But I'd be lying if I didn't say it was also bc of Sunny. She remembers me every time I come in, and remembers that I always request extra wasabi. She's always so sweet and honestly very hard working. She goes above and beyond to make you feel special, I always leave with a smile. 12/10 would recommend to any sushi lover. read more

The rice and fish didn't taste that fresh and the miso soup was INCREDIBLY salty (like more than the average miso), the gyoza's we're good though read more

I visited recently for happy hour, server greeted us promptly and showed us to our table. This is a small restaurant, appears to be family-owned with husband making sushi and wife as server. The sushi we ordered came out as described, and the chef made us one special roll based on the items we like. I enjoyed the Las Vegas eel roll as well. I would return in the future. read more

First of kudos for being at this spot for like 100 years. I have lived in this neighborhood for 30 years. Today is my first stop in here. I have had good sushi I have had great sushi I have had bad sushi Today I will make a new category. Basic white people sushi. Plain Jane middle of the road nothing out of the box sushi. Don't come here looking for salmon eggs or eel or quail eggs. California, veggie, Vegas. BASIC Its SO basic and over priced. I should of made it 31 years read more

The rolls were so fresh! The rice they were wrapped with was so soft and the fish on each roll was great. It's an intimate little restaurant which would be a great place to take a date or just have a peaceful meal :-) read more

This place is an absolute rip off all of their rolls are stuffed with imitation crab meat with a tiny bit of fish on it or in it for $10-$15 not worth it. Miso soup was cold... just for the prices you may wanna step it up.. cream Cheese tasted bad also read more

holy cow. i have had my fair share of sushi and i cam say hands down this is one of the best. from the homey feel of the restaurant to the incredible staff, there was nothing i would critique about this. the women serving gave us little tips about enhancing the already incredible sushi, and sent us off with a small treat on the house. 10/10. read more

Took a chance on this spot after going to Painting with a Twist. AMAZINGGGG!!! Awesome service, amazing food! 20/10 recommend. Definitely going back! Get the spicy special!! read more

Best sushi in Tempe! Amazing service and affordable prices too. I've been here a few times now and love everything I try.

I can't believe I have walked past this special sushi restaurant several times without trying it! I have eaten great sushi in many places including Hawaii, Portland, Seattle and California. This restaurant is now definitely at the top of my list and I would highly recommend it if you like really fresh, excellent quality sushi. It's storefront is not super visible but this is the real deal! read more

I ordered a spicy salmon roll and a tuna roll. This is what I got. It's the wrong order and there's not much of it! I do not recommend if you want to get what you paid for.. I paid $18 + tip for this. I know people make mistakes.. but you also want to have good service when you pay quite a bit! read more

Sushi Time - I ordered a spicy salmon roll and a tuna roll and this is what I got........... The wrong order and not much of it :( - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I've been trying takeout sushi around the Tempe, Mesa, and chandler area for the past 3 months; this was the Best sushi in the area! Thank you Sushi Time for finally fulfilling my craving. I highly recommend the hot night roll and the Phoenix Roll. read more

Sushi Time is a solid option but not my favorite sushi restaurant in town. They give thick slices of fish for the sushi, but I found the rice to be a bit dry for my tastes. I enjoyed the multiple pieces of seaweed they put into the miso soup. The restaurant itself is nice and intimate. I wouldn't try to come here with a large group during busy times, but it's perfect for seating groups of 4 or smaller. read more

Awkwardly silent when we walked in -music was turned down low and there were only 2 other customers when we arrived, but it soon picked up as more and more people came in. It's a pretty small place with probably 6 tables along the wall that sits about 4 people and about 10 more seats at the sushi bar. This particular night there was only one waitress and all tables and seats were filled up by the time we left (poor thing), but she did a good job and maintained good customer service. Sushi was delicious as well, had the Suprise Roll and really liked the avocado on top. Tip: $1 off selected sushi rolls from 5pm-8pm :) read more

Sushi Time - Special: $8 for shrimp tempura, California roll, and miso soup. (California hand roll is $5) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

A long time fave, I can't believe I've never reviewed! This little corner sushi spot has the best rolls for the best prices. The sushi chef is so kind and welcoming and creates incredible masterpieces. Personal go to's are the surprise roll, crunch roll, and philly roll. Can't get enough. Definitely highly recommend! read more

We came here after reading the reviews on yelp, at first I was a little skeptical because of the pictures. The restaurant didn't look nice, however they remodeled everything and it's look great! They had a special today, one Las Vegas roll, one California roll and a Miso soup for $12 (I think it's fairly cheap) the Las Vegas was very good, as well as the miso soup. The rice of the California roll was a bit too dry for me. The sushi chef was very friendly, he wasn't our server but he started talking to us. And we had a very nice/long conversation, he even took a picture with my friend ! We had a very nice time there, we will come back during Happy Hour to try it out! read more

My wife and I are in town for the weekend, and we came from California. Our lunch experience was amazing, and the food was just as amazing. We are considering going back at least one more time before we leave in two days, and I would recommend this restaurant to anybody that loves high quality sushi, and A great staff that adds flare to their food. read more

Seriously the best sushi in Tempe. Amazing service, small and welcoming/family-like atmosphere, and delicious rolls. Vegas, surprise and rainbow are go-to's. Will definitely keep coming back to this place and supporting this family's business. Don't mind paying a few extra bucks--worth it! read more

Delicious sushi at a great price! My favorite rolls are the surprise and Phoenix. The restaurant is pretty small but the service is super quick so we've been fortunate that we never have to wait to be seated. My only negative is that the tables are all right near the door so it gets chilly sometimes if it's busy. read more

This place deserves 10 stars the family running it is awesome and the food is really good. Support true small businesses and go here.

Cheap, with good quality sushi for the price you pay. Sushi time isn't fine gourmet sushi, but it'll get the job done if you're craving rolls. Compared to similar small independently owned sushi restaurants, the sushi is fresher, and there is a good portion of it on your roll. Happy hour is from 5-9 every day, and rolls are buy one, get one half off (For the first 7 rolls on the menu). More specialty rolls will be a little less than 10 dollars each. The decor and interior inside is very bare-bones, has dark lighting, and seems kind of depressing to me. The interior is similar to a mom-and-pop Mexican food restaurant, except we're dealing in sushi here. read more

Great spot for good friends and drinks. Not the biggest and most amount of seating, so be sure to call ahead or go during the week. Great service always. Great tasting food always. Highly recommend. read more

Sok Jin is awesome. He makes amazing sushi and great conversation. Be ready to sit down and take your time, and enjoy some delicious rolls. Notable rolls on the menu: Hot Night, Oh Baby, Surprise, Phoenix... The list goes on and on! Shrimp tempura appetizer is also delicious and you should make a note to try some soju if you're feeling adventurous! Ask Sok Jin to teach you about soju etiquette and enjoy some culture with a delicious drink. If you're in a rush, get togo and call in advance. He is the only sushi chef all shift, and there's usually only one server on staff so not a place to go if you don't have some patience and understanding. read more

We have found our go to restaurant. We try to go at least once a week. The service and food is exceptional. The owners could not be nicer. We always order our "usuals" and then try something new. Have never been disappointed. read more

What a surprise this place was... The place is located around a corner of this shopping plaza ..making it INVISIBLE from the street really.. I only found it with my Iphone Yelp app.. Anyway... This place is great. I stopped in here for lunch and it was everything I could ask for in a small sushi place.. I have been back several times for lunch and never been disappointed. Quick and easy meals with a family style atmosphere. The owners are very nice and friendly that are very attentive to your experience. Worth looking for in Tempe if you are in the area! read more

This has been our favorite sushi spot for several years. Unfortunately when management changed, so did the sushi. The new owners and staff are every bit as friendly and nice as the previous owners. But we've been there twice since the change, and the rolls are smaller and overall just not nearly as tasty. The prices have also gone up - which would have been fine if the quality had been the same. I'm so bummed about this, we really wanted to continue supporting Sushi Time. read more

First time having sushi and loved it. Everything taste so fresh. Went back the next day! read more

I've come here with my boyfriend a handful of times as we were recommended to come here by his sister who's a chef. Everytime the service has been excellent, the food so delicious and it's always a very mellow environment. It's one of those special hole-in-the-wall restaurants that I'd highly recommend to anyone :) read more

This is a great hole in the wall recommended by my date. She loves this place. This place is unassuming and totally lacking of glitz and high decor but the great quality sushi more than makes up for it. I ordered both the spicy albacore hand roll and sushi roll. Both had top notch quality albacore sushi. Presentation of sushi isn't fancy like some places. Miso soup was top notch too. I highly recommend this place. Seems to be operated by a nice old Japanese couple. Good service too. read more
