This is our new go-to sushi spot in AZ. Not sure how it took so long to go here, but have probably been 5 times in the last month. If you're into rolls, they have some of the best I've had. After coming back from LA and getting hooked on omakase after being to some awesome sushi spots, we were searching for something to fill the void. This is it. Jay serves up the best omakase in AZ and the value is insane. Sit at the sushi bar and have Jay serve you up an omakase meal. You will not regret it.
In terms of the ambiance, I am pretty sure this used to be a Wendy's or Starbucks or something as there is still a drive-through. Doesn't matter. Inside is put together well and Jay told me he's moving to another spot across the parking lot in a few months. Speaking of parking, since it's not in the middle of old town, the parking is super easy and available without having to deal with the normal old town scottsdale drama.
I'm almost hesitant to write this review, as I want this place to stay a (somewhat) hidden gem. That said, Jay is one of the nicest guys in the world and serves up the best sushi in AZ. Whether it's sushi rolls or letting Jay treat you to omakase, this place is leaps and bounds better than anywhere else we have been in AZ for sushi and we go out for sushi basically every weekend. The fact that it is lacking the usual old town snobbery is just icing on the cake.
