This was a decent bowl of ramen and satisfied my craving, but I wouldn't say it blew my mind. The chasu was tender, the egg was cooked pretty well, and the ratios of other toppings were good. The broth definitely wasn't bad but it wasn't as rich or creamy as I think tonkotsu should be. The gyoza was also standard for a casual Japanese restaurant. The restaurant was spacious and clean, and the service was very quick, which worked well for trying to catch a flight after. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back but would revisit if I was in the area and wanting some quick Japanese food!

Yummy! Another one of our go to spots! I ordered a salmon teriyaki but without the teriyaki sauce due to food allergies, but still delicious! Shogun roll is delicious, always fresh. Ramen is soo good as well! Service is always great &' fast! A great spot in the valley!

The food is great. The service is great! I came here 4 times in a row. 3 times for dinner and once for lunch. I travel and I can really eat what I want, but this has been the go to. The weekends can be packed but worth it.

My partner and I came here for lunch on Sunday to check out the Mesa area. Daruma is located in a strip mall, and there's plenty of free parking on premise that's shared with other businesses. The staff are friendly and attentive here. I love their open kitchen concept, how everything is made to order, and they were also efficient and accurate. Every dish we ordered was everything we expected and more. We tried their gyoza, crispy rice with spicy tuna, seaweed salad, a California roll, and probably like 6 rounds of their spicy tuna rolls (yes it was that good). My partner also had a glass of their red wine - it's 5:00 somewhere! We enjoyed the food here and would totally come back when we're in the area next. I'd recommend Daruma to anyone in the area looking for sushi and Japanese cuisine.

My Son and I like trying different places to eat when we get together. I had heard some good things about Daruma so, we gave it a try. What a great decision! Our waiter was more than helpful and informative. I never say this but, everything was great! The tacoyaki was some of the best we've had. Lots of times we've had them and we're pasty and not to pleasant. These we exceptional. Texture and flavor was perfect. The karaage chicken was our first time. Unbelievable! Crispy, juicy and full of flavor. The dipping sauce was something new to us but, awesome! The sushi roll had a ponzu sauce it was bathed in. New experience but oh so good! Last but not least, the spicy ramen! Noodles cooked to perfection. Tasty and spicy broth. The waiter recommended level 3 if I like spicy. He doesn't know me! He brought me an side of extra spicy oil. Brought on the good sweats! I almost never give 5 stars but I did here! Truly excellent all the way round!

Customer service and speed is always top notch here. The rolls were nicely wrapped and food came across as fresh. All the rolls between our group were shared. Ramen & noodles were spot own and probably the only thing not shared. Look fwd to returning!

The waiters here are as incredible as the food made here. Makes for a perfect date night experience or group setting Seriously, the waiters went above and beyond when I went. They are SO friendly and attentive!! But without being overbearing. I really appreciated them during my dinner The menu here has a handful of ramen selections, several sushi options and appetizers to start. Everything I had here was delicious!! I'm definitely ok'ing back and recommending this spot to my friends Alaskan roll -- 10/10. Everything I love in a sushi roll, down to the buttery baked salmon. It was perfectly savory Heart attack -- 10/10. Be careful with these, these are actually a little bit spicy! They're so tasty though, and a classic jalapeño bomb that's a great intro to your dinner Garlic edamame -- 6/10. This was the only thing that was a tad plain. Not in a bad way! I just wish there was a little more to this appetizer Miso butter ramen -- comfort in a bowl and certainly my go-to the next time I visit

Tried this place for the first time the other day and was impressed by the food. They had a lot of different options when it came to noodles/ramen, sushi, and rice dishes. We ended up getting their Mayu Tonkotsu and their salmon sushi roll. The ramen was very tasty and flavorful. It was very savory and had a strong umami flavor from the mushrooms. The broth was very good as well. Only thing is that I wish they would give a little bit more pork belly with the ramen. Also I got the spicy level 3 and was definitely caught off guard. I'm not someone that eats super spicy but I can handle spicy for the most part and level 3 spice definitely was the most I could go without it overpowering the actual taste and me having to drown myself in water. What was also great about the food was that it was good quality for a great price. The two ramens and sushi roll were only 35 dollars without tip and the portions were huge and the happy hour menu was great as well. Ambiance is what you would think a ramen place would look like and the service was okay. I don't blame the guy but they were definitely understaffed when we went. There was only 1 guy who I'm guessing was the manager that was running around serving drinks, taking orders, and serving food to all the tables, so there was a bit of wait. Overall great ramen place especially for the amount of portions and price.

Ok, was looking for something here in Mesa, found this place on Yelp, then Saw the BOSS LADY Joyce "Jwow" likes it, so I must go now! The heart attack was AWESOME! Jalapeño was hot, with the crispy textures & sweet tasting sauce. The dobson roll is the best roll I have had in years! I'm not a California roll guy, I prefer actual fish vs a crab mix, but this was my 1st visit, so let's do this! The dobson has such great balance & flavor, I tried to savor every bite to meme l make it last longer. The Salmon roll was good as well, but that dobson was so good as was the heart attack. Quick service, fresh food, very casual environment with 25-30 tables. There's no traditional sushi counter which is odd, but the food is excellent!
