    I ordered two things the kids teriyaki and the California roll both items were delicious and great serving size.

    First time getting a Poki bento box. I loved the selection of sides. Everything was delicious and the place was clean.

    Tokyo Joe's has always been a great choice for dinner. Tonight was not that night. They mixed up our order in a big way. My wife can't eat spicy food. My fresh jalapeño was put in her meal. Mistakes happen, but it wasn't busy. Very disappointed and will think twice before we choose Tokyo Joe's again

    California Poke Roll
    Brett B.

    It was ok, my spicy tuna roll was kinda dry and boring, but the California Poke Roll was colorful and fill of taste, according to bae. The pan seared potstickers were small, lackluster and a tad doughy. Might return for a build your own bowl, but not for sushi

    There's 6 small pieces of chicken they are small pieces and definitely not with the hefty price tag

    I'm going to give this store 2 stars for flavor. The portions of food here are truly lacking, I purchased two meals, one for myself and one for my child. The kids meal has barely any chicken, not even 1 oz of chicken. My meal is the same, not even 2 oz of chicken, there was an additional fee for no rice more veggies, which is almost $2 for these two meals I paid $20. I didn't get a drink, there's a drink with my son's means. What I paid is not worth $20.

There is a lot of free parking directly in front of the restaurant. There is no outdoor seating, but the space inside is very large. Booths line all of the walls and tables fill the center section of the floor. The back wall has a sushi counter where a sushi chef puts together orders when placed. In one corner of the restaurant is a full service bar. They have specialty cocktails available and they are a few dollars less during happy hour from 3:00 pm to closing. We tried the Blossomtini and the Lychee Martini. Both were quite sweet. The Blossomtini was made with Grand Marnier, triple sec, sake, cranberry juice and lime juice. My mom loved it. The Lychee Martini had vodka, like juice, lychee liquor, and vermouth. My uncle said it was much too sweet for him. I had sweet iced tea. The waitress was great about bringing me a refill before I ran out, and she even offered to make me one to take on the road. Our waitress was very patient with us. It took us some time to make up our mind when deciding what to order. She checked in with us regularly, but gave us plenty of space so that we didn't feel pressured. My uncle and mom wanted spicy sauce, so she brought a small dish of Siracha sauce. Also, our sushi rolls came with golf ball sized wasabi on each plate. She took good care of us. The menu has a variety of sushi choices, but you can also find things for those who don't like fish like ramen and chicken teriyaki. For our appetizers, we had an order of fried calamari and miso soup. My mom isn't into sushi, so she ordered the shrimp and mixed vegetable tempura. It was so light and delicious! She also tried the firecracker with tuna stuffed into half a jalapeño. Unfortunately, it was not spicy at all, but it was flavorful. My uncle and I ordered unagi rolls, spicy tuna rolls, and salmon sushi. It was a lot of food. We were absolutely stuffed. The price tag was about $110...reasonable for three people who were pleasantly full and enjoyed our dining experience.

We opted for the all you can eat dinner, but it's limited to the bar only - no biggie. We were quickly seated and given water. To start off, we ordered some gyoza and trapper bites. Both were great options. We also ordered some cocktails. I ordered the Pineapple Coconut Crusher. 10/10 if you want a sweet cocktail. After looking through the menu and asking for recommendations, we started ordering our rolls. You order your rolls directly from over the bar, and they're made right in front of you, which I thought great. The rolls and nigiri were delicious. The quality of the sushi is really good.

    What a dismal experience and grand waste of money…read more Pertinent fact: I'm a pilot and I've eaten Japanese food everywhere, so this isn't my first rodeo. Now on to the facts... The place is nice though a bit dated. The huge koi pond is a nice touch. All the teppan show tables are on one side of the restaurant. The regular tables on the other side. The food was horrendous. There were 6 of us and we ordered 5 different entrees plus an app, so it was a good sampling of everything. I asked the server (who was dripping with an attitude of, "I hate this job and I want to do only the bare minimum..."), what was good. She said the chicken katsu was especially good; so I ordered it. What arrived nearly 25 minutes later was a slab of 1/8th inch thick chicken breast that was so overcooked that it was a hard oval disc. The breading had been over-fried to the point of hockey-puck texture. It was so dry and tasteless that it could have been alligator and I would never have known. Just a hard, dry, tasteless, burnt little slab of chicken with a side sauce that tasted like thick Worcestershire sauce and nothing more. There was barely ANY sweetness (which is critical with Katsu dishes), and zero spice or variation. Just a glop of room-temperature, thick, Worcestershire sauce in a gel-like consistency. It was sooooooo awful that I can't properly describe it. The other dishes were nearly as bad. The tempura was ok. But $28 is a lot of money for tempura. Mine came with a pile of tasteless, very basic "salad" (a pile of lettuce), and a little bowl of white rice. The best description I could muster for all these dishes was, "hospital slop." Then there was the service. Oh my gosh, what a joke. This server dumped the plates on our table and walked off, never to be seen again. She didn't ask how the food was. She didn't refill our waters. . She didn't ask a single thing and we only saw her when we ordered and when we needed the check. No in-between. She literally disappeared for an entire hour. The place is huge and has some 50 tables. We were one of only 3 tables with people in the whole place. She literally disappeared. She only came out after I yelled across the room when she poked her head out from the back for a nano-second. She brought out the check and took our credit cards. The kicker is they add an 18% gratuity for parties of 6 or more. Six? Really? NO WONDER she didn't care : She was making an 18% tip just for breathing. Great gig if you can get it. Overall wvery dish was awful except the filet and shrimp which was decent. And the service was among the worst I've ever had. Just a complete debacle. Stay away from this place. It's truly slop and they charge you a fortune to experience it. Notice how this business has never even claimed their Yelp page? They don't care. A-Hai Sushi in Goodyear is a far, FAR better Japanese option. This place should be embarrassed about the food and the service. It was terrible. Good luck in The future. You'll need it.

We started with the Ahi Tuna Crispy Rice, which was perfectly crispy with fresh, flavorful tuna on top. We also ordered the Hamachi Sashimi, which melted in your mouth and tasted incredibly fresh. For sushi, we had the Sake Roll and added the seared miso butter, which took the salmon to another level and was one of our favorite bites of the meal. The highlight of the night was when Chef David surprised us with one of his specials: seared yellowtail. It was absolutely incredible--lightly seared, buttery, and packed with flavor. If it's available, don't hesitate to order it! For our signature roll, we tried the Harumi Roll. It was good, but after seeing and tasting more of the menu, we both agreed we would probably order the Yellowtail Trio instead next time. To pair with dinner, we had the Montepulciano, and it was an excellent choice. Smooth, flavorful, and a perfect complement to the sushi. Harumi continues to be one of those places where the quality is consistently outstanding. Between the fresh fish, creative dishes, and attentive chefs, it's hard to make a bad choice here. We'll definitely be back to try even more of the menu!
