| - we have been searching for a good sushi place for years in phoenix, and clearly, a few month before we're leaving we found it.
a few weeks ago we were going out for date night and decided to head up to the scottsdale area. i read about dozo on yelp, checked out the menu online, and decided it would be worth the drive.
on our first trip we got the alaskan roll, the tuna lover roll, tuna sashimi and halibut sashimi. the halibut was a recommendation from the sushi chef. it came with a ponzu sauce and i thought it was delicious. the tuna sashimi was melt in your mouth delicious. i didn't even want to dip it in soy sauce the flavor was so nice.
the one we really fell in love with was the tuna lover roll. you get spicy tuna inside, avocado and tuna on the top, and then they fry up tempura and put it on the sides of the roll. on one side of the tempura they drizzle a spicy sauce and on the other eel sauce. now, i'm a huge fan of eel sauce and they do it very well. all the elements work so well together - the wonderful tuna, creamy avocado and crunch from tempura.
the alaskan roll was very good, but i think just got overwhelmed by all the tuna deliciousness.
as others have said, don't let the strip mall and former drive thru fool you. this place is definitely worth a try!
