I have fond memories over the years of Sushi Creek in Queen Creek. Most of them took place on Sunday afternoons and concluded past closing time. The reason is mostly that Sushi Creek offers happy hour all day, every Sunday and has excellent prices on the “happy hour” menu.
I think this would be a good time to disclose that I do, on occasion, enjoy an ice-cold Japanese beer lined up next to a warm craft of sake. In front of me, you would find a saucer filled with soy sauce and a plate complete with sushi rolls, probably in this order: 2 California rolls, 2 Spicy Tuna rolls, 2 Spicy Yellow-tail rolls, and 2 Philadelphia rolls. At the side of the dish is a significant portion of ginger and wasabi.

If you’re with a party and sushi is not your first love, Sushi Creek offers an “I Hate Sushi Menu”. You’ll find burgers and fries along with plenty of appetizers.
The vibe at Sushi Creek reminds me of every casual local hangout. It has a warm and inviting feel to it, and it’s not short of seating between the booths, tables and bar bellies. But it does seem a bit cramped on Sundays thanks to happy hour.
Writing this makes me miss the days when we would close them down and go home happy. There is definitely something about sushi that makes you feel good.
In summary, Sushi Creek in Queen Creek is one of my favorite sushi bars in the valley. I think mostly because of the friendly local atmosphere hid away in a corner strip mall. And I don’t think it’s a coincidence that my other favorites follow the same traits.
- First time here, friendly bartenders. Took a bit to get service at first, sushi was ok. The mushroom appetizer was great. The best part were the two bartenders. Unfortunately I don’t think the sushi was worth another trip, the martini for someone else looked good though 😉
- I gave it 1 star because the waitstaff was very kind. The food is terrible. If you like grocery store sushi... I'd honestly recommend to stick with that. This place is a half step down from there for certain. I will not be returning. We got veggie tempura, cherry blossom roll, and unagi nigiri. The
- We came a Tuesday night and waited about 25mins to get in. Surprisingly a long wait. Loved the ambiance. However we probably waited another 45mins to get our food. I would give the taste 7 out of 10. I got the French kiss, crunchy roll and the dragon roll. I don’t know if it was
- Wow! This was a fun experience eating like kings some of the best sushi around. Great service as well!
- Great for fans of sushi, and haters of sushi! 😂 I say that because I LOVE sushi, but also, the rest of their menu is so diverse and full of creature comfort American foods, that even the pickiest eaters can find something tasty to eat here. 😁 I will say, the place is a bit
