Hana Japanese Eatery · Central Phoenix
Beard-nominated chef Lori Hashimoto's room for exemplary sashimi, down to ankimo.
Across The Pond · Central Phoenix
An intimate purist's sushi bar, traditional execution, no California roll, strong cocktails.
Sushi Friend · Sunnyslope
A small Sunnyslope spot known for the quality of its rolls fresh off the line.
YUZU OMAKASE SUSHI · Phoenix
Possibly the most intimate sushi bar in Phoenix, Yuzu seats just six guests while chef Yusuke Kuroda serves a 12-to-14-piece tasting for $95. It is a tight, chef-led omakase format rather than an a la carte menu, a reservation worth planning around.
