Nice outdoor area. Needs some bug barrier ? outside though. Good food and great staff.

Confusing entry, seated in an odd spot, food mediocre. Wait staff nice. Not sure what is going on here. Hostess not concurred with a request for a booth

I come here particularly for the steamed clams and the big island sushi roll! I have tried multiple things on this menu and let me tell you none of it has cease to disappoint me! They have live music sometimes outdoor seating, and good vibes all around! Check it out!

I wish I could review wider plethora of menu options from this place but I've become a creature of habit whenever I go, because the Rattlesnake is the best roll I've ever had. Anywhere. Hands down. I don't drink anymore but I used to order it with the Chasing Venus pinot gris and it was the best damn pairing out there. If you're going to Raw tonight, put that exact order in when you get there and thank me later.I like that this place is adjoined to Willowcreek because if I'm visiting with friends who aren't so hot on sushi, they can order from either side. I do enjoy the ambiance on the Willowcreek side a little bit more. Interestingly, the place gets cozier, the closer toward the back you go. For the best experience, either grab one of the booths at the very back (and place the aforementioned order from the Raw side) or sit on the patio during pleasant weather.Service here is almost always stellar. There can be a bit of a wait during the busy times though, so I strongly recommend a call-ahead. This is a great date night spot if you have your ducks in a row before heading down.

I have ordered (among other things) the same Spicy Yellowtail roll 6 times in the last 60 days. 4 out of the 6 times the roll has been made differently with varying degrees of rice. The first 2 times the roll had Nori on the outside. These rolls were the BEST. They were very simple with the right amount of fish and rice with a little bit of jalapeno inside just to give it the right kick. The others have had rice on the outside and all different ways of making it spicy and each time the roll has a different amount of rice. (Pro Tip: try using 80 grams of rice per roll) The rice has also been hit or miss. The last one I got the rice was WAY undercooked. I know that these are hard times for restaurants and staff but you still need to be consistent. When you are charging for a product it needs to be the same each time as close as you can get or the customer is going to be frustrated. I have been eating with you guys for years and appreciate what you do but I know if someone does not tell you what's going on your cannot make adjustments. I hope this helps and thank you for doing what you do!

Good food on a nice patio with friends on a hot summer day what more could you want. My fish tacos were excellent. The live music was fun too. The cauliflower appetizer bites were excellent. We were joking that we have a restaurant in Helena Montana called McKenzie that serves a sandwich that is called the Willow creek so we should win a prize?

Our hotel recommended this restaurant . I was told it would knock my socks off! (Good thing I wasn’t wearing socks!). Nice low key meals. Burgers, salads, sandwiches. My menu choice was the Philly Cheesesteak. As you would expect; except for it was wrapped in a pita with blue cheese. It was fantastic. Most of the entrées are served with french fries. However willl Creek offers french fries salad, homemade chips and salsa, as your sides. I felt I had a nice selection of healthy options. Dad had Fish and FF’s. Large piece of fish. About the size of an adult hand. They also have a large selection of sushi-based items on the menu. I did not try any so I can’t really comment on them. This is the local restaurant. We had vanilla cheesecake which is made by their own staff. Brioche buns are made by another local bakery. Great option. The restaurant is located near the hotels that are listed as airport hotels..

Honestly, the best thing about going here, was learning that we would not ever want to go here again. We were seated pretty quickly for a Friday. But then it took nearly an hour to get sushi. In that time, our waitress only came by our table long enough to take our order. Over an HOUR. Yes they were busy, which we both understood would add time until we got our food, but the waitresses dismissive grumpy attitude did not help the situation. On top of that, even though they were a sushi restaurant, their selection was minimal. What we did get, was about the quality of Grocery story prepackaged sushi. We will not be going back.

Fantastic place to grab lunch! We were greeted and seated right away. Love the kick that the calamari came with. And the cali roll was made with REAL crab ( or at least I think)
They may be a bit slow, but we never miss a chance to stop there and eat the yummiest veggie sushi in the Western US. We make the drive from Seattle to Phoenix several times a year. We always stop. Always. It's nice to get a bit of calm and stretch our legs a bit on that long road trip. Don't miss it. It's amazingly yummy.

Nice quiet atmosphere, subdued lighting, and attentive staff. I ate the bento box. It was delicious and well made, with good sauces for the tempura and sushi. I asked for extra picked ginger and it was brought out very quickly. Outdoor seating was available. Overall, a nice place to eat with good food.

This has to be the most overpriced worst sushi I have ever eaten!! The sushi was to thick it all was to warm bland. I had the Hamaki and Gijin both were horrible and fishy to large. Tasteless. The green dragon I was looking forward to had to be better than the other rolls right? No it was over powered by the large slices of jalapenos. The best thing was the sauce the brown sweet sauce. The thing is I couldnt eat it. 40 bucks down the drain. Will not recommend nor will I return EVER!!
