| - If you like sushi do yourself a favor and check this place out. Comfortable environment, excellent service, and some of the best rolls I've had in PHX.
We stopped in on a Friday night after a friend's recommendation. He also recommended the Oh My God roll, which we ordered. The name, though a little goofy, was fitting. Our friend also recommended that, if given the chance, we chat with the owner, Juno. It was a slow night so rather than pick from the menu we asked our waiter if it would be possible for Juno to make us three rolls of his choice. She seemed stunned by the request but asked him and he obliged. Next came three rolls that weren't on the menu but definitely should be - each excellent. Juno came over and chatted with us for a while after that and his stories, energy, passion for sushi, and genuine kindness was the perfect ending to the perfect meal.
With restaurants in NYC and Arkansas, Juno next wants to open a second, larger place in Phoenix - possibly Scottsdale or Arcadia - with live entertainment in the way of taiko drums. Hopefully that will happen soon. We need more places, and people, like this in town.
