Cherryblossom Noodle cafe

Love this place! Yuka was awesome and very helpful explaining the menu and dishes for us. Their broths are insanely good and their pork pot stickers were a great starter. Everything we ordered was delicious! We will definitely be returning for more.

Absolutely love this place! A friend suggested we go here for lunch and it was incredible! Our server, Sierra, was the best! She was very friendly and helped us navigate the extensive menu! She even made some great suggestions for what to get! I got the Shoyu Ramen and I can’t recommend it enough! This is my new favorite noodle place!

I ate here almost a month ago and I’m still thinking about it!! I went with one of my girls on a whim and what a delight, this was the best lowkey heater restaurant we could’ve chosen. We went it a little over two hours before close and that place was popping. We were sat right away at one of the last open tables. Everything was reasonable priced and definitely cooked with love. The Thai tea? Absolute banger, one of my fav Thai teas I’ve had to date. We then started w pan fried dumplings also another hit! I also ordered the spicy salmon roll which was okay but that wasn’t the main event so I wasn’t bothered. Even though we’re at the heat of the summer I ordered the Naruto ramen bowl and Oh. My. God. As I write about it my mouth is watering. The broth was so rich and full of flavor I wanna drown in it. From the pork to the little ramen toppings I was a fan of it all. The best part? It tasted even better the next day when I reheated it!! Our servers name was Lucy and that girl took such great care of us, shout out to Lucy. I cannot wait to go back and try more of the menu!! 4.5/5 stars in my book tbh

I ordered take out for Sunday dinner: pad thai 🍜and the ahi tuna 🐟rice plate. The ahi tuna plate was fair, a good value for the price, but the pad thai was just bad. Not flavorful 😖and the noodles were hard and dehydrated😡. I think they sat out too long, since I had to wait a while for my order. It upset my boyfriend’s stomach.⛽️The restaurant was busy, so maybe the food is better when sitting down.

This place sounds like a real gem if you're after authentic Japanese food. Forget those watered-down "cafe" versions – they're bringing the real deal. The staff gets a thumbs up for being kind and decent, which always makes a dining experience better. And it sounds like you get your money's worth with delicious food that doesn't break the bank and leaves you feeling satisfied with the portion sizes. You're really digging the Showa era "Yoshokuya" vibe, huh? That's cool – it's always great when a place has a distinct atmosphere. But the real kicker seems to be those authentic Japanese shortcakes. You're right, they can be tough to find around here, so that's a major win for them. Bottom line? You're highly recommending Cherryblossom Noodle Cafe, and it sounds like a spot worth checking out for anyone craving genuine Japanese flavors and a unique, nostalgic feel.

This is one of my all time favorite restaurants in AZ. Honestly, you'd be missing out on some amazing food if you decide to pass this place up. The food is 10/10 delicious, I live far and made the drive for my birthday, now I'm just sad I don't live closer. The Katsu Chicken was crispy and juicy, with a beautifully deep flavored Japanese curry on top. They were paired with fluffy-perfectly-cooked rice, and a delightfully fresh salad with a dressing that tasted light but full for flavor. Atmosphere: 10/10 we listened to some Jazz while eating and enjoying the sounds of the monsoon rain. The cafe was clean and the lighting was just right for cozy vibes. The desserts? 10/10! We tried a slice of the rosemary-vanilla cake with lavander, and it was like I blinked and it disappeared too quickly. The cake was the perfect sweetness, it was delicate and sweet, but not cloyingly so, which I feel like that is rare to come by especially for these particular flavors! I've had wedding cakes that couldn't hold a candle to this cake. The vanilla flavor brought the rosemary and lavander flavors together in perfect harmony. The lovely workers here? Also 10/10! They were attentive, hard working, and so sweet! I can't reccomend this wonderful establishment enough 🩷

This place is such a GEM! My photos are super low quality because I was not planning on leaving a review, but I was so happy with my experience that I wanted to give Cherryblossom all the stars! The large variety of cuisine/food options had us a bit indecisive at first, but our server, Yuka, was so helpful and kind - she’s the kind of person you want to come back to a restaurant for and become a Regular at! I was in a soup mood and was thinking to do the Ramen, but she gave the best suggestion of the beef hot pot udon, and it did NOT disappoint! it was the decided dinner winner :) The bento box wasn’t on the menu (might be a weekend special? Not sure), but Yuka suggested it as well, and the variety of food, portions, and flavors of each component left us very satisfied! I was not planning on doing dessert, but after seeing the display and learning everything was made in-house, we had to. We opted for the Beautiful berry mousse - so yummy and light! Perfect ending to a lovely dining experience.

Discovered this hidden gem 🍜✨ Serving up Asian delights like ramen, udon, sushi, AND even Italian classics like chicken parm! I tried the mapo tofu app & katsu bowl — sooo delish, but I gotta say the donkatsu bowl stole my heart ❤️ Located in a cozy plaza with plenty of parking & great service. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving comfort food with a twist! #HiddenGem

Early dinner -no wait on a Saturday. Friendly staff. Wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed my ramen and shared Agedashi. Dinner for 4 plus a 1 year old for under $75 is amazing. Their prices are very reasonable.

I've been to Cherry Blossom many times over a decade, but my experience on Thursday night (11/13/25) was deeply concerning .Enough that I feel it's important to share for the safety of other guests. My coworker, who has ordered the same soup here countless times, immediately noticed that it tasted different this time and was much spicier. She is extremely sensitive to capsaicin and started feeling the early signs of a reaction. We told our server that her throat could begin to close, that something in the soup had changed, and that we would like the soup remade and that we would need to leave to get her medication. Instead of treating this as urgent, the server repeatedly responded with, "There are no jalapeños in the soup," as if that settled the issue. What she didn't seem to understand is that capsaicin -- found in many spicy ingredients, not just jalapeños -- can trigger allergy-like respiratory reactions such as coughing, throat irritation, and shortness of breath, even in people without diagnosed food allergies. A manager (I think she was) eventually came by, but her response was just as dismissive. She also repeated, "There are no jalapeños," without listening to what my coworker was experiencing. There was no empathy, no urgency, and no effort to help during what could have escalated into a medical emergency. This level of disregard for a guest's health is alarming. Accidents happen in restaurants, but how the staff responds is what matters and in this case, the response was unsafe and unacceptable. I truly hope the restaurant takes this seriously and trains staff on how to handle situations involving potential allergic or respiratory reactions. I'm sharing this so other diners are aware and so the restaurant has the opportunity to improve how it handles situations that require basic care and attention. Also I had posted an IG story with what happened and tagged Cherry Blossom- they did see it nor did they respond . They have no emails nor can you message them in a social dm. I do feel this needs to be in writing therefore nothing is skewed.

Sushi was dry and fell apart. Server gave NO Acknowledgment during while meal. Could not get her attention for another drink, I'm sure I could have if I yelled. Poor service. Food 5/10.

Joined the pipe group for lunch, first time here. Ordered the daily Banta box. Today's included a nice Thai style beef salad which I thoroughly enjoyed. Large portion of white rice with 2 crispy fried shrimp and a delicious curry sauce. A small but tasty piece of sliced pork , and a tofu side, which I didn't try. 4 pieces of average California roll, and a refreshing half orange made this a hearty and satisfying meal. Also included was bowl of nice miso soup. This was a terrific meal for the price, $13, and I look forward to returning! Service was satisfactory, not much interaction, but received food quickly.

I have gone here many times for years and I have never been disappointed. The food is great and the service is phenomenal. A great place to spend with family, friends, or date night. I would definitely recommend their hot udon, any flavor!

I'll preface by saying that Cherryblossom noodle Café has food quality that does better than some other restaurants in Phoenix. The California roll was pretty good! I think the ratio of rice to contents was a lot better than other California rolls I've had in the area. The chicken karaage was a dry and had an interesting sauce more water-based, less mayo flavor than Japanese restaurants in Nevada. The miso ramen was fine, but it didn't really taste like miso. It tasted more like a shoyu, quite watery. Staff was really nice though! I had a great experience with them. Plus, the interior felt like a cozy cafe.

The food was definitely 4.5 star worthy. My husband's Japanese champong (not to be confused with Korean jjampong) was 5 star worthy. The special of the day poke bowl was outstanding 5/5. Quality of fish was varied and a quality Japanese rice. The tuna maki was very respectable. Why 4.5 stars? Music was too loud and they need better air extraction for their grill. EXTREMELY courteous service. A real pleasure eating here. We may be back if we're in the area!

The fried salmon sushi and beef curry were both okay. We enjoyed the sizzling Korean bbq beef the most.

Excellent customer service, ambiance was great especially the soothing music. Food was prepared with heart, we will be back.

Went in to take out service and I will say, next time I rather dine in. There's not much room if you want to stay in the cool indoors while you wait for food, you have to stand near the front and constantly move over because others are trying to get a table. However not a complete bad thing because our food was well worth the trouble. We were craving some spring rolls and when I asked they suggested something else and it didn't disappoint! The sauce on top was flavorful and just the right amount of spice. However, not a spring rolls so don't expect that. Their sushi roll was fresh and nice cut! Hate when the pieces are overly thick. Gyoza was crunchy and flavorful as well. Looking forward to coming back and trying their Bento Box meals! They seem to have a lot of specials too so will update on those later!

This place has been around forever and has stood the test of time. We've been here many times and love their ramen, noodle dishes and sushi options. the Korean spicy beef, Pad Thai, Cha-shu ramen and Yakiniku are our favorites. Great for dining in or take out. Service is always efficient and with a smile.

Thursday night visit, party of four. I had the shrimp pad thai. You do not get the option to pick your spice level, and I thought it was lacking flavor. The California roll was standard. I also tried the Korean spicy beef. It was much more flavorful than the pad thai. The service was pretty quick.

I love living near downtown so much, except I feel like there isn't that much great Asian food. I was soo happy when friends introduced me to Cherryblossom because it's some of the best Asian food I've had in Phoenix. It's a Japanese-Italian fusion that always hits the spot. Plus the restaurant is decorated so well and the waiters are always sweet. If you're there on the weekend I highly recommend the bento box. It is a crazy amount of food for only 14-15 dollars. Their rotating selection of desserts is also amazing and shouldn't be skipped.

One of my favorite cafe in Phoenix. I love coming for a bowl of ramen or spicy beef noodles. They have traditional deserts that are super yummy as well. What's even crazier is I've had the same servers for 7 years. Anytime I return to Phoenix, I return here.

Came on a Sunday night, it was fairly busy but for 2 of us, we were seated right away! Our server was friendly and quick with taking our orders & bringing out the app's & entrees. They give you 2 hot fresh garlic bread rolls and they are so tasty. This places has very "homey" vibes and I love how they have slight dim lighting, it really makes you feel like you're at a cozy restaurant. Appetizers we ordered were the shrimp shumai and the gyoza - DELICIOUS on both, can't go wrong! Entrees we ordered the Vegas roll and the Pad Thai with Pork Belly - both were phenomenal & had great taste, my only qualm with the latter is that the pieces of pork belly was all fat no meat, so we almost thought it was like fried tofu or fried eggs..

Service is great, very attentive. I was not super crazy about my drink but the chicken pad Thai was delicious and I will definitely go back for it.

Stopped in for lunch today, finally. Been wanting to come here for years, but it's not really my area. We got a table right inside the door and couldn't really see the rest of the place. So, I can't really comment on the atmosphere. The service was great. Always someone stoping by the table and making sure our drinks were full. I had the Cha Su ramen and it was tasty. Thin slices of beef. plenty of noodles, and the broth was very good. I didn't think about it at the time, but I should have added an egg. I was disappointed that they weren't serving all the lunch specials they have on their online menu. I had already picked out what I wanted, and then had to scramble to make a decision. I hope to get back here soon to try out a pasta dish. I heard afterwards that their sauces are quite good.

Had a soup craving as it's not 100 degrees anymore. It was 97 don't @me. ;) Had the tantan which was very spicy as stated and full of flavor. Accompanied that with a Thai iced tea. Great dining experience. Service was fast and helpful in making a decision. Will definitely head back soon.

It's been several years ago that I went to Cherry Blossom. It is a very cozy place. The ambience is fabulous. The food was excellent and the service was just great. I talked to someone the other day that said they've been there more recently and it's the same. I look forward to possibly going again. Sorry, no pictures.

Visited on a Saturday night. It wasn't too busy. We got seated right away which was nice. I was a bit confused by the menu when I saw Italian items in the menu. I ordered the Gyoza, it was really good! I asked for chilli oil but they only had a paste. I then ordered chicken yakisoba noodles, they were pretty good. Probably will not be back, I was hoping for more options on the menu.

We've been coming here for years! Great food and service as always. I always enjoy the lovely ambience.

Went here with some friends after work, having my hopes all high as the place came highly recommended. There are a ton of items on the menu, lots of things which I had never heard of before. This is a good place to come eat a meal with some friends.

Consistency is a difficult thing in the food industry. However the few times I've come to Cherryblossom it's always exactly like I remember and that's why my oldest loves it here. She's like her mom in that sense that once she finds something she likes why venture out. Thankful for that being the case once again, quick service with a huge smile, delicious food in a great atmosphere. I've always encouraged my kids to try new places and things but when it comes to this spot I understand why my daughter loves it here

I stopped by the "Cherryblossom Noodle Cafe", on my way home to get some sushi to go. This Asian Fusion restaurant has a diverse menu featuring Japanese, Korean, and Italian cuisine. They have a nice selection of appetizers, salads, Ramen & rice bowls, Italian pastas, and sushi.They have lunch specials M-F from 11am-2:30pm and dinner till 10pm. I really liked the atmosphere and plan to return with the wife to enjoy their dining experience.

Have been coming here for years and the sushi was always good until last night. The rice was sweet. So sweet it ruined the rolls and I couldn't finish them. I asked waiter why it was sweet and he said they put vinegar and sugar in the rice. Not sure if this is normal, I suppose it helps make it sticky. But I've been eating sushi for 30 years and have never had sweet rice. It was gross.

Really good small Japanese restaurant. A lot of people came for food. Popular amongst the local. Service was friendly and prices were very affordable. Would definitely return!

always a good meal and good vibes at cherry blossom! came here today for dinner with my family and we were quickly seated on a sunday evening. service is amazing as always, and the food comes out relatively fast. i got the tekkadon today (seasoned raw salmon with sushi rice) and it's honestly such a great deal for the amount of fish and rice! i love the miso soup that comes with the meal as well. the iced green tea was refreshing and a perfect addition to the entire meal. my mom got the cold buckwheat soba, which she thought the sauce could be slightly more flavorful but the noodles were cooked perfectly. my dad got the mapo tofu and grilled pork belly off the appetizer menu (he is on a keto diet) and thoroughly enjoyed both! i took a slice of the matcha strawberry cake to go, and shared it with my roommates at home. this was the star for me. the cake was fluffy, not dense at all, and the layers of strawberry were amazing in the slightly earthy and bitter matcha cake! wowowowow 10/10 experience today and i will come back again and again for you cherryblossom!

Food meh Service meh Ambiance meh I was recommended here from an employee at Starbucks. I had to drive 20 miles. well, I was disappointed. from the food, service, to the decor, everything was just off. I would not come back if I was in the area.

Quaint little place. Had a variety of dishes and sushi. It all tasted fresh and was worth the stop to celebrate our fiends birthday.

We went there to celebrate my friend's birthday with a group of 15 people. It had been a while since we last visited, and this time we were pleasantly surprised to see that they had expanded their seating area next door. The extra space made our dining experience more comfortable and spacious. When I called to make the reservation, they mentioned that they don't allow outside cakes, but they do offer an option to get a cake from them. I ordered the Champon and found it a bit too salty for my taste. There weren't many noodles in my bowl, but there were plenty of veggies. Interestingly, my friend who ordered the same dish had a different experience with plenty of noodles in their bowl. Maybe they mixed up our orders? Our waitress was truly amazing. She took all of our orders without writing anything down and didn't mess up a single one. It was impressive! In the end, we decided to try one of their cakes, and it was pretty good! The only minor issue was that the cake had been pre-cut into slices, but it wasn't a big deal. Overall, we had a good time at Cherry Blossom, and I'm glad we got to try their cake. It was a fun night out with great company and tasty food.

Oh my goodness I'm so grateful that all of my plans fell through and led me to cherry blossom noodle café! I was absolutely blown away from the moment we walked in and saw all the different desserts on display. The servers were so helpful and gave me all the details and I couldn't decide and told them to surprise me with a dessert as an appetizer they brought the most delicious strawberry shortcake With kiwi on it! When it came to deciding what was for dinner it was definitely a struggle as they have Ramen, sushi, noodle plates, rice, plates, cold noodles, and even Italian food ha ha. I decided to go with something more traditional to see their rendition on the plate. The yakisoba noodles with pork belly was the perfect choice. The entire plate was so tremendously full of flavor and not overbearing. Not too salty. And was enough food to take home and surprise my husband with. My friend enjoyed the Ramen, which again was a plentiful amount of food, and the chicken was cooked perfectly! I am so excited to bring family members from out of town here as a new, "must see ", spot.

I live in Flagstaff and was melting in the mild-for-Phoenix 90F weather, so cold noodles seemed appealing. And while I can make a pretty good tempura soba at home, hiyashi chuka requires specialized skills. So, the hiyashi chuka was very tasty. The noodles were cooked perfectly (albeit not handmade) and appropriately springy while still being refreshingly cold, the chicken and mini-omelette were cooked perfectly, and the cucumber was cut to nicely fit with the noodles. The lettuce was more iceberg-y than I would've liked, so I picked around it. The dressing was a bit overwhelming but tasty. It wasn't transformative, but it hit the spot on a hot day. I don't usually discuss service, but in this case I should note that the server seemed rather overwhelmed and I frequently had to wait--once I finished eating it took my nearly 10 minutes to get my check and another 10 for my card to be run.

This is a family favorite because of the wide range of dishes - they have sushi which my kids love (and it's high quality with a big selection), Japanese noodle dishes which I love, and Italian for my husband. Plus incredible dessert selections. Such a neat combination of things, and always excellent. Service is very friendly and helpful. It's a cute little cafe and can get crowded at dinner time but we've had good luck at lunch getting in and out fairly quickly. I highly recommend the "very spicy wontons" on the appetizer menu. Spoiler alert - they are not VERY spicy, only pleasantly so. I also really loved the cold buckwheat noodles with tempura. Perfect food for hot weather. Such a charming little place - we're lucky to have it in the sea of chain restaurants :)

Love love love their sister location right next door however there was little effort in terms of getting anything right or an ounce of warmth and friendliness towards a new customer. My tuna roll was AWFUL, paying $7 bucks for a ratio of 95 percent rice to tiny sliver of tuna in a roll that was sloppy and fell apart felt like throwing my hard earned money out the window. This was worst then supermarket sushi. The double crunchy shrimp roll was a soggy limp mess. The MSG they load into their sauces was absolutely insane as I suffered from MSG poisoning all afternoon. Worst sushi in Phoenix in my opinion. I am sure there is greatness to be found somewhere in this ocean of misses but this place has been cemented into my never again of dining establishments. Note to the owners, try asking your servers to be nice to customers and exude warmthness, it would help at least to make an awful meal much better. I got nothing but dirty looks the whole time I tried to order and my disgusting sushi took 25 mins. These people have no clue whatsoever.

Been here a handful of times and I'll be honest with you, I get the the ramen every time lol. It's a decent sized portion (I personally have never been able to finish it), great price and most importantly it's delicious. There's a couple different types so it's fun to switch it up with each visit. I've also tried some of the appetizers which are delicious! I love the edamame, pot stickers and their spicy tuna roll... Maybe that's why I can't finish the ramen... Regardless, it's always easy to walk in and not expect much of a wait which is always a big plus. One of my favorite places to go when I'm craving ramen!

A favorite spot, I didn't order my usual. But really enjoyed the shrimp tempura, and the ramen was good as well. The waiter was friendly and provided great service.

Great diverse menu with excellent service. The only place in central Phoenix that has shumai!

The food here is amazing. The Italian Japanese fusion honestly makes it super unique, atmosphere super cozy in the bakery is a delight.

In our travels, we always crave asian food after eating American food for every meal. So to finish off our trip in AZ, we decided to munch on some Japanese food and Cherryblossom came up. Tekka Don - tuna sashimi bowl with sushi rice. It wasn't the best tuna sashimi bowl I had but it was still good. I was hoping for warmer sushi rice. Kitsune udon - very delicious udon and soup. It definitely hits the spot on a cool day. Service: pretty good and fast considering how busy it was.

Came by on a Friday night and it was really busy. Got here at 6:45pm and was seated promptly. The layout of the restaurant is a bit strange - there are hallways where you cannot see your server so if you want to call them over you cant wave since there is a wall between hallway seating and the main dining area. Food was OK but service was reeeaallly slow so we were disappointed. Ordered the neopolitan pasta (pretty good), rainbow roll, and dragon roll. Sushis were fine. Took us awhile to get our check, have our waiter take our card, and return. We ended up leaving at 8:45pm when we initially wanted a quick and light dinner.

We found this place about 9 years back. My favs here are the HAKATA RAMEN, Strawberry Punch, and Double Crunch Shrimp Roll.. you have to try them!... The ramen here tastes JUST LIKE THE RAMEN IN JAPAN. We got to compare broth flavors when we visited Tokyo, and I have not found any other place in Arizona or LA that has the same flavor as they did back in Japan. I love this place! We got all of our friends to love it here as well!

Went for lunch and had a spicy salmon cut roll and the chashu ramen. The salmon roll was amazing. The broth of the ramen was really good, the noodles were ok, the chashu wasn't the best. Didn't taste seasoned much. Their prices are so so good. I didn't try any of their desserts but they looked really good. Can't wait to return to try their udon.

I've been coming here for four years now and it's sometimes a hit or miss with the food that I get I get the exact same thing every single time I never really changed it. It's always the buckwheat cold noodles called the zaru soba noodles and sometimes they're undercooked or overcooked and when I went in today it was pretty undercooked. I got a bunch of crunchy pieces which was pretty surprising and there wasn't even that big of a crowd, so I'm like why aren't you guys cooking everything correctly especially my dish. It's super easy. All you have to do is cook the noodles and then blanch them so they're cold. That's it, aside from that I've always enjoyed everything else I've gotten from them. All of their appetizers are amazing and I always recommend their Gyoza. It's good either way pan fried or the soup spicy version

Been coming here for many years. Food n service are excellent. Recently, just start ordering pasta. Never knew Japanese pasta can b so good.

This became my favorite pho spot, food was so so good! Service was great, spot was absolutely nice, my husband and I were i loved! Highly recommended!

The restaurant is cozy, and seems to be a popular date night spot with the locals. The food was subpar though. The tonkotsu tasted fine, albeit a ton of white pepper, and the beef nanban udon was really good, but I felt like the flavour was just missing one thing. The udon was a decent size, and I felt really full coming out of the restaurant. We also ordered the chicken kaarage, and I would recommend skipping that. The chicken pieces come out pretty small, and for $9, I'd recommend trying a different appetizer altogether. Someone ordered what looked like a bento box, and that looked impressive, but I can't speak for the taste. While the restaurant was busy, the service wasn't great. It felt like our waiter was busy trying to rush is out of the restaurant. We asked for (more) water, but not totally sure if he had heard us since he walked away so quickly, and came back with the bill instead. He did walk away and come back with water after that, but it was just kind of awkward since we weren't even done eating yet to have the bill without asking for it.

We called to see if the bad server was working about 3 times and a couple weeks ago we were told he had been let go. We were both so excited! Tokyo Express and Cherry blossom café has been a family staple since it was on East Thomas. We both had pork ramen. Was super good, California roll, and dessert which they bring in from a local bakery. Strawberry Shortcake. We loved our waitress, So glad to hear the mean server moved on. We have been back for the rice bowl already. Two people under twenty bucks for most bowls and a salad.

If you want to get a good Asian fix, come to this restaurant! We ordered their nigiri set, chicken Katsu curry, and champon. Sushi there is not great so you can skip that but their curry was really good! I haven't been to any restaurants in Arizona where they sell japanese champon so I was very surprised to see that on their menu. I was hesitant to order it at first but I was so happy that I did! It tasted really good! The restaurant is pretty big so service was a bit slow and it was hard to get our waiters attention. It's a bit dark inside but a clean restaurant to go to. I have not tried their Italian foods yet but it looks pretty decent from what I've seen from other people ordering. I'm sure I'll be back soon!

Great selection of sushi and noodles. I had the Korean beef and it was amazing! Our server was attentive and kept our tea and waters full. Came in for lunch and the Ambiance was quiet and comforting,
