Tokyo Joe's - Surprise

Full disclosure: I was on my way to In-N-Out. I’ve driven past Tokyo Joe’s at least 100 times, always curious, always defaulting to a protein-style Double-Double. This time I rolled the dice and wandered in. Glad I did. Built my own bowl with grilled shrimp and took the cashier’s advice on sauces (peanut + curry). Excellent call. Deep, balanced flavor, a little heat from jalapeños, pineapple adding just enough sweet contrast, and veggies that were genuinely fresh and crisp. Protein portion felt fair, not skimpy. Is it cheaper than In-N-Out? No. Is it worth the extra few bucks when you want something lighter, cleaner, and still satisfying? Yep. The interior is modern and fun, but the patio is the move. Sitting outside on a crisp 65° January afternoon felt like peak Arizona. Only minor q

If I can give 100 stars to the staffs for excellent service, I would. We were waiting outside for them to open when their chef was kind enough to let us know they were. The staffs were the friendliest and kindest people I have ever dealt with in the food industry. They even remember their regulars and they warmly greeted everyone. They also regularly checked if we needed anything and asked how our food was. Our food was good. I wish they had some ramen (soup) options and not just bowls. They have a lot of healthy options to choose from. The place was clean and organized. The decors looked cool. Will definitely come back.

Anna made my first time a fun. I was waiting for a friend and she caught me trying to figure the menu out by the registers from acrossthe roo.. She offered to bring me a menu and then let me ask her all about it. She helped me pick between the salmon and the BBQ bowls and I have to say the BBQ bowl was delicious. Reasonable prices for a decent amount of food. They brought our food to us and even checked on us once. Really great service. Good job Tokyo Joe's!

This place is absolutely indispensable! My son has a lot of dietary restrictions and is also a picky eater (like most young kids) so when we discovered that he not only tolerated a poke bowl full of veggies, rice, and tofu, but actually LOVED it, this instantly became a regular outing for us. We live half an hour away but make it out on a biweekly (if not weekly) basis. I try something a little different almost every time and have never been disappointed. Also, I don't leave feeling like a guilty parent because it's so well-rounded and nutritious. Tokyo Joe's has become my little guy's favorite meal (it won the prestigious birthday selection this year!) and honestly one of my own as well. Everyone that works at this Surprise location, in particular, has only ever provided us with excepti

This place is great! I've been going there 2-3 times a week for the past year & a half and l ain't dead yet! The food is great and the staff is great. The staff gets along really well with each other and that creates a really good atmosphere. The prices seem to be compatible and if you're looking for a healthy meal, this is the place. And no, this is not a paid advertisement! LOL! Sincerely, Doug
