We have many choices in North Phoenix, but I continually come back to Kona Grill, Desert Ridge. The wait staff is friendly and courteous. Bar Tenders(especially Emina) are professional and adept at remembering names and drink orders. The food is always tasty and fresh. Give them a try. You wont be disappointed.

Overall pleased with my experience. Was on lunch, they have $ 10 lunch specials. Food came fast and was fresh. Barkeep did good job of keeping my glass full.

Very good happy hour, but service was just god awful. Water was always empty and server was never present. Maybe after 20 minutes of waiting we finally got our check. In all, good food, poor service.

Kona Grill is the epitome of sushi in AZ… that is LOUD, overpriced, mediocre fish quality, did I mention loud? It’s a fun time if you’re going out for a night out with a group… plenty of menu options which should be red flag number one. What kind of self respecting sushi restaurant serves flat bread. What? Perhaps this place knows exactly what it is though… catering to the palates of Phoenecians. I can’t bring myself back here for a long time. I will say that the kids menu is a good value and they can get something other than grilled cheese and nuggets fare for $ 6.50. Their rolls, all expertly crafted to mask the fish quality are $ 12-$ 16 or more. $ 7 for a tuna roll? $ 4.50 for a single bowl of Miso soup!?? Maybe if they had some combination platters or bento boxes of some sort, it might ease the pain, but I’m not returning unless I want to go to a nightclub again… and eat some bleh sushi at the same time.

Sunday + Happy Hour All Day + Football = Happy Girl! Kona Grill is one of our favorite places to go! The staff at this location are super friendly and nice. The other day we placed our order and my husband’s flatbread came out and after 10 minutes my salad still had not. The manager came to deliver my salad, upon inquiry, and was kind enough to remove it from our check. He certainly didn’t have to do that and we greatly appreciated it. We were so moved by that act, that we went back there during a football playoff game with our friends and spent a lot more money! Their chopped salad is such a great gluten free option for us celiacs! It’s substantial and filling and seems too good to be true. Thank you for making so many great gluten free options! We will be back again and again and again!

A regular stopping place for me … The desert Ridge location. Standard Kona menu with service that sort of comes and goes but across the board, a pretty fun place to stop. One short bitch has to be that on my last visit, I ordered the pan fried dumplings and asked that they be over fried and as crispy as possible but when they came out they were as limp as a noodle, no pun intended. Anyway, I’m pretty sure that was a one time goof and will certainly go back. Thanks for reading

Excellent sushi. It was very fresh and flavorful. Service was a bit lacking, but the manager made up for it when he made his rounds to ask how our meal was. Very nice wine service, desert selection and food choices for those who do not want sushi. The beef skewers were also great as was the house salad. I would return.

We love HH Sundays on the patio. You can enjoy everything from sushi to flatbreads to sliders and please all the members in your party. The prices are wallet friendly. Fresh air at City North is an added bonus!

Went to dine @ Kona @ High Street on New Years eve with my wife and I must say I was disappointed. I live ten mins away and called in to check on wait times. They said 15 – 30 mins waiting but walked in to see that it was not the case. The coffee machine was broken and could not get a cappuccino. The regular coffee was luke warm. No sugar/sweetener to accompany that. We ordered the food thereafter. The table was missing salt and pepper. I asked for some crushed pepper, and all they had was a tablespoon full. I told the server that the sea bass crust seemed a little over cooked /burnt…to which he just didn’t seem too concerned at all and obliged to get the check. I’ve had better sea bass at pf changs. The server came just once, toward the end of the meal to ask if we wanted more water. By that point my appetite was done. Overall, we had a not so great experience @ this location.

The service was awful, we waited 30 min for a server. She was also very awkward because she knew we were waiting. Moreover, did not ask what we wanted to drink. Don’t recommend this place at all.

Had actually never heard of this place. My son and daughter had both been there and liked the sushi. My daughter recommended the macadamia chicken which was excellent. My daughter-in-law had the pork which was also very good. The child meals are really cute and the kids liked them. We didn’t have alcoholic drinks but I believe I will go back and try this place again. The service was excellent except for at the end when it got busy and our waitress got pretty busy. It took a little while to get our check. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was because of how loud it gets. I could not hear what my family was saying across the table. I took pictures of my meal and my daughter-in-law’s and the kids and will post them.

I was thrilled to come here for my first time to celebrate a milestone in my life. The atmosphere was lovely, the servers were nice, the food was good… I was with a large party, and we ended up sitting at the table for a VERY long time after dinner waiting for our bill. We had enjoyed some drinks and had plans to continue on to another location. Sitting at the table for upwards of 20 minutes for our bill really killed the mood. If it wasn’t for the wait, I would have given them a much higher rating. Given the amount we spent as a group, I expected to have better service.

My partner and I came for a Saturday afternoon lunch during happy hour. Plenty of options included for the happy hour, many of them half priced. We split the beef bulgogi tacos and the Gouda fondue. Both good and flavourful. Would definitely come back again.

Walked into bar area for HH on a Saturday and the place was pretty slow. Except every high top table was dirty. Had to sit somewhere though. Our waiter HATES his job and or life. You could smell it on him. I would recommend hiring happier people who want to please customers and make good tips. This Kona Grill definitely needs to work on their customer service. It’s in bad shape. * also they are always out of HH house wine. Instead of telling us, the server charges us for a wine that was 2 $ more. I am not cheap but at least be up front about it instead of manipulating the situation.

This was the best happy hour we’ve been to in a long time. Not only were the food specials unbelievable(both in variety and price!), but an added bonus was that it was«wine down Wednesday» so we got a bottle of wine for ½ price! Our server was wonderful… very attentive, happy, and provided us great insight on some of the food and drinks(he even corked the bottle for us to take home what was left). After Wednesday night’s amazing experience, I know we will be frequenting Kona Grill much more often!

Jennifer had amazing suggestions along with awesome wine pairing. Great food as always… But now elevated to a different level with their new menu. You can go in the bar and try their new menu… The three amigos sushi was the bomb!

I’ve *never* had a bad experience here! Huge Kona fan. Especially love their Happy Hour price points(½ off) of their rad apps/sushi rolls. Some recommended items would be: Spinach Artichoke Dip(served w/tortilla chips) Spicy Tuna Roll Calamari w/the Aoli(sp?) sauce Lettuce Wraps Potstickers Service is swift and accommodating always. Patio dining makes for good people-watching(esp after 9pm on weekends). Their music choice is GREAT at this location, to BTW. #happyeater

This is a great choice for Happy Hour if you’re in the area. It goes until 7PM, which is very nice, and there are tables inside and outside. Service is terrific, and the Food/Drinks are great as well. We tried the Cheeseburger Sliders, the Chicken Satay, and the Spinach & Artichoke Dip. I also had a Margarita. All was delicious and not too pricey. Nothing is mind-blowing here, but nothing’s bad either, so if you’re in the area looking for a good place for Happy Hour, I would definitely recommend Kona Grill. ENJOY!
