Sapporro by Jeanne S. at InsiderPages

Every time we visit Scottsdale, we always make a point to eat at Sapporro. The tepanyaki tables are wonderful. The food is always delicious and the chefs and staff are always very entertaining. It's an upbeat, eclectic atmosphere, and the drinks are wonderful there.

Good lunch specials. A great way to try new things at a reasonable price. Nice atmosphere and good service. Convenient Scottsdale location. I would recommend for lunch.

I would recommend Sapporo to anyone who wants a classy place for Japanese style and drinks in Scottsdale, AZ.
The atmosphere was great; it was a nice mix of trendy and casual. The wait staff was very attentive and good at explaining the dishes to us.
The drinks were decent as well. We had a combination of beer, margaritas, and sake bombs. All tasted good and were reasonably priced.
We payed around 200 for drinks, apps, and sushi, for 5 people.

Sapporo has wonderful sushi, ambiance and service. You will love the Teppanyaki style cooking or mingling around the sushi bar. The fish tanks built into the walls set the mood as soon as you walk in.
Cool vibe, horrible service, mediocre sushi

The atmosphere is cool and it is full of beautiful people. If you are into seeing and being seen this is the place. If you are into good food and good service there has to be better places in AZ.
So, lets start at the beginning. Our reservation was for 6:15, at 6:30 we started asking about our table, we were told they were short-handed. At 7:00 we were seated. We ordered our drinks, appetizers and dinner at the same time because they were busy. As our sushi appetizer came out so did the sushi dinner someone ordered. When I asked why they would bring his dinner at the same time as the appetizers I was told that it was made by a different chef. After getting most of our appetizers (the rest never came) we started getting our entrees. When one of our party didn't get his I complained at was told that it was coming. After 10 minutes I complained to the manager and was told "sorry one of our grills is broken" but then he left and never came back. After another 15 minutes I complained the manager again and was told sorry again. I suggested he go in the kitchen himself, find something and take care of his customer. Again he disappeared. Finally the waiter went in and waited for the dish to be prepared, at total of 30 minutes later.
As a form of apology the manager offered us free dessert. Big deal. When it came we just let it sit. Finally the manager brought the bill himself with a substantial discount. It helped but they have a long way to go to restore our faith in them.
- Pros: Atmosphere, great people watching.
- Cons: Food, service, excuses
Too trendy, but still very good

Sapporo's is in a great location and is a beautiful space, with soaring ceilings and lovely bamboo floors. It's crowded and popular, and the food is genuinely excellent. The sushi is always fresh and well-presented, and the service is quick. Even the desserts are delicious, which is not something you can always count on at a sushi restaurant.
The only thing I don't like about it is that it's also a meat market, a see-and-be-seen sort of place full of noisy, plastic Scottsdale people flipping their overprocessed hair and Blackberry-ing each other across the table. That's usually kept to the front of the restaurant, however, and you can usually get a quiet table farther back in the restaurant where you can concentrate on the food and company.
- Pros: Delicious sushi and desserts
- Cons: Loud, crowded, and artificial in some parts of the restaurant

Went on Saturday happy hour is from 4 pm to 7p.m. Cheap eats, high quality food and signature martinis and sake selection. All drinks were half priced. Bartender, a girl, was on the ball, and made strong drinks. Very nice atmosphere from the outside in, even the bathrooms were appealing. Waitresses and hostess were some definite eye candy. Seemed to start getting busy around 6 p.m. The place doesn't have enough TV's and the TV's are situated high in the corner of the ceilings which are very high. A great place overall, best to go with somebody.
- Pros: Atmosphere, Great food, Great price, Wide selection menu and drinks
- Cons: Not enough TVs and TV's aren't in the most viewable position
Great Hot Spot

The atmosphere is great, drinks are generous and the reverse happy hour prices make them a steal. We are heading back this weekend for the sushi which looked divine!
- Pros: Great Crowd, Great Martinis, Great Happy Hour Concept
- Cons: Crowded
I love Sapporo!

This is the best and cheapest place in town for sushi (from 4 to 7 every day). Never been dissatisfied. The service is always great, the food always comes out quickly, and the quality of food is above par. Great place to people watch. I've brought my kids and it's never been a problem...they like the sushi just as much as I do!! Try the Las Vegas roll!!! YUMMY!
- Pros: great food, great prices
- Cons: a little crowded during happy hour, but they do take reservations!
