This place used to be my favorite sushi bar in Phoenix. I've lived all most Asian countries including Japan so I believe I have a well rounded insight into quality Japanese cuisine.
This place has really gone downhill in the last few months. The servers and the sushi chef must have had a horrible day because I was largely ignored by the waitress and the sushi chef cut the sashimi portions in half. I was a regular there and at each visit, the size of sashimi slices kept getting smaller and smaller. During my last visit, the fish slices were wafer thin. To make matters worse since I was ignored by the waitress, I confronted the sushi chef and showed him how he used to prepare my sashimi deluxe platter and what he actually made me. The sashimi was literally dumped on my plate and was lacking the usual beautiful presentation. His response was that he was busy and that we had a large table. I told him this was unacceptable and he proceeded to give me this idiotic "Alfred E Neuman" look.
The server never gave me my sake without me chasing her down and she also forgot to give me my side order of rice. This server never smiled once.
I will never, EVER go back to his place. It doesn't matter if you're a regular, they'll still treat you like crap! And by the way, if you're in a group, be wary of the 20% gratuity that is added to your check. Most ppl don't notice this. My service was so bad that I asked for my 20% back and told them to shove it and left.
