“The food was delicious! It came out very quickly after we ordered. We got beef and chicken teriyaki plates with the rice and noodles and I would eat it for dinner every night if I could. The teriyaki sauce was the most delicious I’ve tasted with a lovely homemade flavor. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Japanese cuisine!“

“It was a great dinner for our family of 11. The service was great until we ordered dessert, which never arrived. We finally canceled the desert and left because the kids were losing it. Something must have happened in the kitchen. That was the only time they were unresponsive.“

“INCREDIBLE night out at Mikado's! Great food, entertainment atmosphere, service, and FUN. Really enjoyed the show put on by the show, and the server was also wonderful. Some of the BEST Japanese food I've had--can't wait to come back. Thanks so much for a great evening!!!“

“It was a perfectly pleasant meal. Our server, Mariana, was lovely and accommodating. The scene on the patio was quiet and chill; exactly what we were in the mood for. The food was good; nothing bad and nothing outstanding. I wish that their rolls allowed the fish to shine, rather than stuffing them with fake crab.“

“Everything was delicious!! And service great!!!“

“great service, friendly staff fun atmosphere“

“Joes sushi was the first place I tried sushi when I was a kid. I still am loyal to this day and I always tell my friends and family my favorite restaurant is still “joes sushi” I love their food so much and the staff is awesome. I remember before it became “the Cabo way” they had the best priced all you can eat option which I believe they should bring back!“

“Excellent experience. You have to be open to sitting with other people.“

“Just as good as I remember. I moved away from Palm Springs 12 years ago but was sent out for the day for work. I used to love this place when I lived here and was pleasantly surprised to see its still around. The same cute old couple is running it and the food is just how I remember it. Its simple, fresh, quality food for a good price.“

“Patience combined with tenacity and a lot of cash will get you a fantastic lunch & dinner experience. Recommend throwing caution to the wind and sitting at the bar overlooking Stadium 2. Incredible sushi and lychee martinis.“

“Rolls are HUGE this could be good or bad depending on your preference but no matter what you order it’s going to be a delicious and each dish definitely puts on a show ! The place is small and cozy and service is good. The only thing I do stay away from here is the lemonade never had a lemonade taste so synthetic and fake. Over all this is a great establishment with rolls that have personality.“
