Sushi Sonora

Yes I’m Hispanic, greeted in Spanish and I replied in English, was treated rude from then on. I ordered and asked if he can make it spicy, he said it’s a little spicy already. I asked well can you add spice. He said not really… lol seriously. You cant add a jalapeño? Some sriracha? Besides the crab mixture was not flavorful. Guy was rude, greeter (cashier) was not inviting. I recommend Señor Sushi if you want a culture mix with good food and kind service.

This place was pricey. For some reason I find it odd mixing cultured food together it. It’s kind of disturbing in a gross sense that it turns my stomach. I am glad that people are open to new and different foods but when I think of the kitchen and the back I’m surprised people don’t get sick.

The bad reviews are odd, I’ve been coming here for 3 years and absolutely love the sonoran roll. Sometimes the waitress doesn’t speak great English but food is very good.

Seriously GOOD Sushi! My family and I are lovers of sushi and happened to be in the area and did a search to find this place. As we pulled in, I actually pulled out because it does not look like much of a place at all but I was overruled and turned back in. I am SO glad I did. We left out of there over stuffed and totally satisfied for under $ 40 for all of us. Not sure why others have said they were over priced but I do not feel that way, especially when you are getting unique fusions of huge rolls. Absolutely loved it and we will definitely make the trip back over that way just to eat good fusion sushi!!!

Hace algunos días fui con mis hijos a este lugar en cuanto entre el mesero nos miro muy mal, junte algunas mesas para sentarnos todos, y ya estando sentados el mesero se me acerca y de una manera muy prepotente y enojado me dice que por favor no dejara que mis hijos anduvieran corriendo y gritando que porque los demás clientes se molestaban, y en ese momento no había más que una persona comiendo, cuando mis hijos en ningún momento se habían levantado, en vez de acercarse saludar y preguntar que queríamos de comer, lo que pasa que esta persona se molestó porque usamos casi todas las mesas Y si llegaban más clientes no iba poder acomodarlos, y obviamente no iba tener propinas, ese fue todo su problema, se me hace una falta de respeto muy grande hacia mí y a mis hijos, a esta persona le hace falta mucha educación y el lugar este, entrenar gente que sepa tratar a los clientes.
Así que por favor atención. si tienen hijos nunca los lleven a este lugar porque los van hacer sentir como cucarachas, existe un tipo de racismo hacia los pequeños…
Jamás en la vida me vuelvo a parar en este lugar. espero y ustedes lean y tomen en cuenta de lo que les estoy platicando!
Espero el dueño de este lugar tome cartas en el asunto, y contrate gente con educación y experiencia!
Gracias!

I don’t know why this place has complaints. At first, I felt the prices were a bit steep so my party of three ordered only 3 rolls with intentions of going elsewhere. We all love cream cheese and almost every roll has cream cheese so that’s a win in our book. Then the rolls came, they were HUGE, more than double an average roll at any other sushi place. The potano was so so so good, it’s in my top 3 best rolls ever. Then, they don’t put any sauces on the rolls they bring them in condiment bottles so you can do it yourself (another win!!). They bring eel sauce, a chipotle mayo, and an orangy-​citrusy sauce and they were all excellent. Each roll also comes with a little (imitation) crab salad and julienne raw carrots topped with scallions. It’s small, only about 8 tables but one of my new faves and they stay open till midnight. My only complaint is that the restrooms are outside.

Ok not too much fun of mexican suhi. Love the Japanese sushi period… dont like the fried sushi prices are way to expensive and not even good food. I won’t be back because too expensive, no happy hour and don’t like fried sushi sorry not a good place for me to eat

This place was absolutely horrible. Its overpriced, dry and does no justice to prove just how good sushi can be. To make matters worse I found a eyelash in the roll that I ordered. Definitely never coming back here again.

This is my first visit to Sushi Sonora (SS). This experience left me in culture shock with never partaking in Mexican sushi. Growing up in a half Mexican and half Cuban household being a glutton for Japanese food was a serious no-​no until later in life. SS is a very unassuming hole in the wall. There is nothing fancy here but it is clean. I came here with some coworkers for lunch and we were the only customers. Let me be transparent with two things about SS, their rolls are expensive (none less than $ 10) and all their rolls have cream cheese. I am not a fan of neither! They had telenovelas playing on the TV along with Spanish rock which gives this place it’s vibe.
SS has many Mexican related treats that they fuse into sushi. I saw a roll with carne asada or ceviche that did not catch my attention. They also have one with a Sonora style hot dog just to name a few, BTW I did not get the above three. I went with the Sinaloa roll $ 14(yikes). It had tempura crusted shrimp, processed crab mix (I prefer crab stick), avocado and cream cheese. The processes crab mix had a hint of tuna flavor which was odd. Everything was fresh and I did not get sick so let’s go with tuna in the crab mix. I’m a bit embarrassed but the crab mix also appeared to be imitation from what I could tell. The presentation was very nice but the plate had chips on it. Am I being super picky, maybe but if I am paying $ 14 for a roll I want near perfection.
So on this day I finally broke my Mexican sushi cherry! Will I try Mexican sushi again, YES! The likelihood of me returning to Sushi Sonora is slim to none until they drop their prices. One more thing about SS, they do not sell aguas frescas! What’s up with that? I am lucky enough to have many choices for south of the border sushi and cheaper prices in the metro Phoenix area.
