One of my favorite Asian spots in Arizona! It is located on the second floor of the Westgate Entertainment District. Parking can be slightly difficult especially on the weekends since it's shared with many other restaurants but the parking lot is really big! Service is ok, wish it was more attentive and friendly The menu offers a variety of rolls, sashimi, nigiri (whether you like it cooked or raw!) They also have meat dishes, ramen, and combination plates (perfect if you want some beef/chicken and some sushi!) I usually get the beef and chicken teriyaki combo and it comes with veggie tempuras, 3 pieces of California roll, and a salad for $21.45! I would say it's 7/10 The beef teriyaki is soometimes too chewy and not tender enough and the chicken is usually a little too dry and rough. The sauce used is a tad sweet and salty and tastes pretty good. The salad is your typical garden salad and the greens are usually pretty fresh. The California rolls are your standard rolls and nothing too special. The tempura is perfectly fried and super crispy without being too oily or greasy. Would totally recommend and return especially since there aren't that many good Asian spots to choose or go to in Glendale, AZ!

Not too bad! The quality of the sushi was pretty good. The standard Philly Roll was very well balanced. Our favorite roll though was Albacore Crunch Roll. The ponzu sauce and onions were perfect with the roll. The fried gyoza was actually crispy too. Both drinks were fantastic. If I had to pick one it would be the Kyuritini. The elderflower and cucumber was just a fantastic sip. The service was a little slow. The feel of the restaurant was welcoming and kid friendly.

excellent tasting fish, and a wide variety menu for some who may not love sushi. the lotus on fire roll was sooooo good. i have never had lotus and this was the best roll i've had in a while. well decorated inside and clean, we were seated right away. the host did warn us that the food would be staggered, as some was sushi and some was from the kitchen but there was about a 10minure delay between half of our party getting their food before the second half. Kids meal took longer for reference. Yummy spot and very generous on the sauces!

Let me tell you that Josh is a star behind the bar. We had such a good time with his expertise of the menu and drinks. He made the night perfect and the food was 5 star. This is a place you wanna go. Michael - Tampa Florida

Very spacious and well decorated. Cocktails were good and the food was amazing. We had the scallop and mushroom appetizer, house salad (excellent dressing), grilled shrimp roll, I forgot the name but the roll with a variety of fish, and the tempura green tea ice cream. Service was great, you can ask any staff that walks by and they will answer you. They have excellent teamwork and you can tell they communicate between each other.

Fun dinner here at Kabuki prior to the NCAA men's basketball national championship game! So fun! We had a table outside, which was perfect. We could see everything going on & got to enjoy all the energy and excitement among the fans who were also attending the game. We ordered a bottle of wine & my daughter chose a sushi roll. Our server was very attentive, despite all the chaos. A great experience!
