Zu Izakaya - ASU

“Great food, pretty and aesthetic atmosphere, and amazing drinks!!”

One of the best dining experiences we've had in a while! Every dish was superbly prepared, with high quality ingredients and spot on flavors. Even seemingly ordinary items were sooo good. Our favorites were definitely the chicken karaage skewers, the chicken skin gyozas, and the shishito peppers. The service was fast, friendly, and efficient. The ambience was super cute and very modern izakaya. We loved everything about this place, and definitely recommend it!

Zu Izakaya — Hidden Gem for Budget-Friendly Asian Food in Arizona! Zu Izakaya has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Arizona for Japanese and Korean-inspired food, and the vibe alone is worth the visit. The atmosphere is warm, casual, and lively — exactly the kind of place where you can unwind with friends, enjoy a date night, or just treat yourself after a long day. The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive, making you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. They know their menu well and never make you feel rushed, which honestly makes the whole experience even better. The food

NEW LUNCH SPOT… $15.95 chefs sashimi special. Are you joking?! Every piece of fish is cut thick and perfect. Had the edamame and tempera vegetables as well. Quiet, cute, inviting. Chill on a Thursday lunch. Sat at the bar top with my book and enjoyed every moment. Sad they were out of the green tea cheesecake but I’ll be back for that.

Our server was Klara and she was very attentive, fast, friendly and very helpful in assisting us choosing what food to order. The sushi was fresh and very reasonable priced. Food came out fairly quickly even the restaurant was 40% full. They have Happy Hour daily from 5pm-7pm and 9pm-close. Overall, very happy and definitely come back.
