| - There aren't many conveyor belt sushi places in the East Valley (but if you have a favorite, please message it to me because I'm looking to try more around here) but I really like coming to Teharu. The sushi quality is definitely not as good as say Shimogamo in Chandler or Sekai in Mesa, but there are a lot of other aspects of the restaurant that will allow you to forgive that. I don't really judge conveyor belt sushi places on the same on the same playing field as non-conveyor places because the experience is quite distinguished.
First great thing is that if it's a busy night (talking like Thurs-Sat past 6pm) and you're nearby and you call 30 or so minutes ahead of arriving, your name will be called just as you walk in the door (has worked for me twice, kinda strange actually). Otherwise, it's only about a 25-30 minute wait at its worst for walk-in sushi appointments.
Secondly, the food is cheeeeeap. Definition of a "1 dollar sign" restaurant. If you've been to conveyor belt sushi before, you'll know that they charge by the color of the plate(s) your chosen dish is served on (green is like a buck, red might be a buck fifty, don't remember offhand but no one dish from the conveyor is really over $3).
Third, with all the money you saved by not going to Ra, you will be able to buy more drinks!
Fourth, good service. They will leave you alone after they get you started and are pretty available if you need them. Well staffed restaurant.
Fifth... hm... shoulda stopped at fourth but 5 is a better, rounder number.
There are a couple of sushi places I want to hit in North Scottsdale first, but I will soon return to Teharu.
