*****update a change in ownership since this was written****A hidden gem for quality sushi is located in the Arrow Head area of Glendale Arizona in an older strip mall across from AJ’s Fine Foods on 67th avenue. This is not an average sushi restaurant that serves average sushi.
The interior is crisp, clean, sleek and modern with neutral and natural tones. Natural light comes threw a wall of windows.
We started off with Spicy Korean Wings and Miso Soup.
The Wings were marinated and were dressed with a mix of spicy and sweet and were laced with gochujang (a fermented Korean Chili Paste). The wings were succulent juicy and flavorful and covered in sticky, gooey spicy but not too spicy flavors. Scrumptious!
But here was STUNNING sushi!
On this plate was Salmon, Toro and Mackerel Nigiri Sushi. I don’t remember ever tasting sushi that was this fresh before. All the sushi just melted in my mouth. Even the mackerel was sweet. I never tasted mackerel like this before. We also had Blue Fin…..also just melted in the mouth….Really super Forking Awesome Sushi………Oh and the rice is delicious too!
We also shared the Spicy Awesome Blossom Roll.
This roll was spicy tuna, cucumber, spicy seared albacore that was topped with a mountain of the tastiest crisp fried onions you ever had that again was topped with creamy delicious sauces. This wasn’t just good….This Spicy Awesome Blossom Roll was an Experience! you start with enjoying the onion petals….they are crisp with a sweet delicious onion flavor and some have a little sauce on them that is yummy. The actual roll is delicious with that special super melt in your mouth fish and all those flavors…..but them after you finish the roll there is still more crispy onion petals to finish.
Next was an adorable treat!
And then another treat!
Service was very friendly and welcoming.
