Small restaurant and can be hard to get seating for larger parties, but have always had delicious food here. Say Jalapeño, Monkey Balls, and Calamari are our favorite appetizers, and the kids always get their Udon Soup. Their iced green tea is so good and refreshing.

Absolutely mouth-watering, lip-licking, wonderfully flavorful food!! The calamari and the sauce served with it was absolutely savoring! The sushi rolls are HUGE and filling! The staff is friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere was clean and inviting! I cannot wait to go back again, as this little gem of a location has now become my favorite restaurant in Maricopa!

We have been coming here for nearing 3 years, each time it's an enjoyable experience .The Food is delicious and flavorful. The staff is always friendly and prompt. But the topper for me, they recently remodeled their space. The atmosphere was always cozy and comfortable. But now, it's updated, cool and clean. Couldn't be happier with the new changes as it makes the place feel like a cool crisp cave in this desert heat. We got the gyoza for the appetizer. Then for sushi rolls we ordered the Yummy Yummy, Ninja, Baked Spicy Lobster and the 911 rolls.

Inside felt cozy & welcoming. I came in for take-out about 20 min before close & they were accomodating, staff was pleasant & personable. I ordered a firecracker, monkey balls, & baked Dynamite roll. The Firecracker was surprisingly bland.. like it needed a dipping sauce or something. The Monkey Balls were excellent! The crisp on the breading really sealed the deal.. I'll definitely be ordering those again. The Dynamite roll was a little disappointing compared to it's description & Dynamite rolls I've had elsewhere. It was still good, it just wasn't what I was expecting & what I had a craving for. It's something I might again, albeit with different expectations next time. I definitely still prefer Savage Sushi, but his menu is much more limited than here so it really depends on what you have a taste for.

Say Sushi in Maricopa is an outstanding spot for sushi lovers. The atmosphere is inviting and comfortable, making it a perfect place to enjoy a meal with friends and family. The service is excellent, with attentive and friendly staff ensuring a great dining experience. One of our favorite features is the sake bomber special and the walking bomber, which add a fun and unique touch to our meals. The $1 appetizers are a fantastic deal; the gyoza, mixed tempura, and egg rolls were all delicious, coming out hot and perfectly cooked. The miso soup was flavorful and a great start to the meal. The bento dinners offered a variety of options that were all well-prepared and satisfying. We particularly enjoyed the fire dragon roll and the dragon roll, both of which were fresh and beautifully presented. Overall, Say Sushi is a gem in Maricopa. The combination of a warm atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service makes it a top choice for sushi. Whether you're dining with friends or family, Say Sushi is highly recommended for a delightful and memorable meal.
