| - We were out in Goodyear for the first time in forever and checked out Yelp for some eats...all these glowing reviews for Ah Hai so we had to check it out. We were hoping for a great hole-in-the wall find, cranking out fantastic fresh sushi at great prices.
I have to wonder if we went to the same place. The sushi was very mediocre...well prepared, sure, but very similar to what you'd get at a supermarket or any number of places around town where sushi is treated as an afterthought. Tasteless, unnaturally pink tuna, finely processed pre-made spicy tuna for rolls, etc. Small slices too. Just not as spectacular as some reviews here made it sound. The place is small, the decor is a little cold, and it was creepy quiet. On the bright side the kitchen items we had were tasty, and service was cheerful and efficient. Prices were very affordable and the happy hour gives a great discount. But with the 4.5 star Yelp rating we went with high hopes we'd find a hidden gem stuck out in Goodyear, and we found a 3 star, passable but not great sushi joint.
