OBON Sushi Bar Ramen

OBON's tasting events never disappoint, and tonight was no exception! My husband and I along with our friends attended our third tasting with them. Tonight's tasting featured local beer from AZ Wilderness paired with small bites from OBAN. Andrew from AZ Wilderness was delightful, and it was great hearing about all the different beers and how each one is produced with their sustainability philosophy! Following the event, we ordered dinner, as OBAN's food is incredible and worth the drive from the west valley. Fran, the manager and Ron OBAN's liquor distributor representive, are outstanding and always ensure our experience is exceptional! So, honestly if you're looking for a super chill and outstanding sushi and ramen spot, look no further than OBAN, your go-to destination.

This place has such a cute interior and nice service but the food was not it for me. I ordered calamari, it was okay, not the best I've had. And a vegas roll, rainbow roll and one of their specialty rolls, I believe it had the word maki in it. There was just something off about each roll, like they each were a different take of the roll and didn't taste the best.

We had been to Obon at Scottsdale quarter a few years ago and didn't have the best time. We tried out this location and were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is beautiful and trendy with some patio seating as well. They recommend a reservation but they were pretty empty on a Saturday night.We tried a veggie gyoza, jackfruit BAO buns, veggie cut roll, vegan street noodles and veggie ramen. Everything was really flavorful and delicious. The BAO buns and street noodles were my favorite. The ramen was full of flavor, which is often not the case with veggie ramen.

This place has a such a nice and aesthetically pleasing inner decor. The service was amiable throughout. For one, they don't list their sushi menu on their official online website for whatever reason. As the name implies, it's a place that focuses on ramen, sushi, as well as some bao buns and other meat entrees. The boa buns aren't like siopao or shumei though; they're more like tacos. I tried out their signature Obon Ramen and a Fukushu roll. Their Obon ramen was the right amount of spice and the right temperature for me to eat it right away. It was absolutely delicious. The sushi was packed full of flavor and well presented. It is an expensive place but I'm glad to know that I'm paying extra for good quality. I was with a group of 6. Our total bill came out to $220.90 (includes tax and tip; that's an average of $36.82 per person).

I enjoyed a Friday night meal at Obon at the Grove. Making a reservation was easy via OpenTables and I'm glad I did based on the crowd when I arrived. The hostess was accommodating when I requested to switch my outdoor seating to indoor, which was greatly appreciated. Obon has a trendy interior with a mix of low-top, high-top, and bar seating. Diners beware, trendy interiors do not always translate to comfort (see my chair picture).We ordered the tonkotsu ramen, an assortment of sushi rolls, and two bao buns. Overall the meal was good, but not great. The pork belly in the ramen was overcooked and hard to eat, the sushi rolls didn't particularly stand out. Our server team was great, but it was clear the restaurant was understaffed.

I cannot recommend this place enough! There was one point where I was in here 3-4 times a week because of how much I craved it! My favorite has to be the kanto beef and the obon ramen! They're both extremely flavorful and compliment each other well.The atmosphere of this place is very light, open, and relaxed in the day and more upbeat at night. The servers are always extremely attentive, fun, and personable which is just the cherry on top! They always make the best food recommendations and are quick with service!

Food: we ordered sushi, veggie gyoza, and spicy ramen. It was all so tasty!! Service: I wish I remembered her name because she was so sweet and helpful on the menu. Ambiance: super fun and diverse menu and also great decor and vibes. Happy hour was amazing! Parking: easy, designated shopping center free parking Will def be back!

This was a late night stop after a long event and we were right on time for reverse happy hour (8pm-close). The food was okay/good. The Tonkatsu ramen wasn't very flavorful and I don't know if it was because of the time we arrived (8:30pm) or it we got a bad batch. It wasn't great but it wasn't bad either. The spicy tuna and salmon rolls were good. They hit the spot and tasted pretty fresh. The cucumber salad isn't marinated but more so fresh cucumber barely coated in the chili pepper. The service was also okay/decent. He checked in about 3 times during our visit. Wasn't very attentive to the check as I had to go back for corrections (food wasn't priced at happy hour prices). It was taken care of once brought up. Overall, it's a decent place to stop in. I hope your experience will be better than mine.

Love this spot. I go to the one at The Grove in McCormick Ranch. Great vibes. Great food. Great people. Definitely one of our go to spots.

Met a couple of friends here. The food was good.I'm we thought it was happy hour and we got 2 items. We got the gyozas & egg rolls. They were both good. Also got a mocktail a mojito , it was good. I got the katsu sandwich. It was good but thought there would be more stuff in it. Looked like a Chick-fil-A sandwich. Still good thou. My sister got the kanto beef. It was good.
