Best Japanese Restaurants in Laveen

Food and service was great. Highly recommend the Copperstate steaks and shishito peppers. Drinks were delicious! It’s a very busy place. Get reservations days in advance. We could only get bar seating which was still great but crowded like most bars in any restaurant. We will visit again and make sure to reserve a table upstairs in advance.

The food was so tasty and fresh! The New York strip was cool how you can cook it to your liking on a hot stone! We sat outside and the back patio has a great atmosphere. It was warm with the heaters and fireplace. Drinks were also great. We want to come back to try more of the menu! Definitely make a resy because it gets busy!

First time and loved it! Brought my mom for her birthday and we had the sushi nachos (interesting and delicious), sake maki, negi yellowtail, and the hot night 2.0. All were delicious and highly recommended! For dessert we had beignets with salted caramel sauce - yum! We sat outside and enjoyed the chill vibe and service was top notch as well.

From the moment we arrived - happy hour cocktails and appetizers in the bar all throughout dinner we had a fantastic dining experience. Our bartender Justin was on point and even stopped by to check on us during dinner. Our server, Fiona was knowledgeable, super friendly, fun and took great care of us. The manager stopped by to check on us a couple of times which we appreciated. We shared the Yellowtail sashimi, and the hand rolled spicy salmon. Both were excellent. For dinner we started with the spicy tuna, followed by several sides - the short rib fried rice which everyone highly recommended and seemed to love, we found a bit boring compared to the rest of the dishes. The Roasted Mushrooms were out of this world delicious, and the Gochujang Brussel sprouts were equally impressive. My husband enjoyed the Smoky Melon (Mezcal) cocktail while I enjoyed the Sauvignon Blanc wine. We can't wait to go back!

Had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary/Valentine’s day at NOBU Scottsdale. The food was amazing and the service was top tier. The servers were attentive and very kind. The restaurant was clean and not loud at all. Overall a wonderful experience, we’ll definitely be back!
