My husband & I enjoy going out for a sushi night from time to time and we are always looking for new places to check out. I recently found out about Trapper's Sushi Co. which has three locations in Arizona - one in Anthem, one in Avondale & one in Surprise. Along with having locations in Arizona, they can also be found in Washington + one location in Texas. Before getting into the review, I do want to note that prices vary depending on the region so the price I mention below may vary from one near you if you are in another state. Trapper's Sushi Co. has a large menu of various sushi & appetizer options, and they also have All You Can Eat Sushi. My husband & I were recently invited to visit on of their locations here in Arizona to experience their AYCE. I live down in Phoenix, but this spot is well worth the drive up to Anthem & if you love sushi and have a chance to visit one of their locations, I recommend that you do. The location we visited is located at 39510 N Daisy Mountain Dr Anthem, AZ 85086.
They have a number of great deals including Happy Hour plus kids under 10 eat for free on Sundays. This location has the AYCE at $20 for lunch and $30 for dinner, depending on how much you are able to eat this is an awesome deal. If you are going specifically for the AYCE sushi it is only served at the sushi bar, or you can relax at a regular table/booth to enjoy the full menu. The restaurant itself was very clean & felt welcoming, there were plenty of seating options and they had several large TV's each playing something different so you can choose what you'd like to watch while eating. The TV's & music were not turned up to a point where you weren't able to hear other party guests you arrived with which is nice as I enjoy having a conversation with my husband during dinner.
We did the AYCE during the dinner hours. The only issue we had was deciding what we wanted to order because there were so many delicious rolls on the menu. I liked the selection of rolls they offered & I loved that it clearly stated what was in each roll. I've been to spots in the past that only have the name of the roll but not what was in it & as someone who can be slightly picky with sushi it is nice knowing what I am ordering. My husband & I each tried three different rolls plus we got an order of pot stickers & an order of trapper bites. All of the rolls we picked out were delicious & filling, you will be served a large portion, and everything is freshly made right there at the sushi bar. This is the first sushi place I've been to that has scallops on or in the sushi and man, I've been missing out!
I had ordered the white peach lemonade; it tasted like peach rings in a cup, and I loved it. My husband had ordered a blueberry alcoholic beverage that he enjoyed & when he went to order a second drink, he had asked for our server's recommendation & was very happy he did. The server recommended a drink called the Sea Monster Mai Tai. I am normally not a fan of alcoholic drinks, but I tried a sip and wow it was so good & one I would actually drink. All of the staff we encountered were friendly, talkative & attentive when it came to getting our orders, taking away empty plates.
They also have a program where they sell raffle tickets for $5, all the proceeds go to a cancer research group called Valley Girls & Guys. Later in the year they will draw raffle tickets and the winners could win one of an assortment of prizes. I always appreciate when companies & brands host raffles and events like this to help give back.
We look forward to going back, not just by ourselves but with some of our other family members who love sushi as well. I can't wait to try out some of the other sushi rolls that we didn't try out this time, there is only so much I can eat & didn't want to feel like I was going to pop. But, that is a good thing because it gives me a reason to come back and try out more of their menu.
🍣 Is this a spot you think you would enjoy eating at? What is your favorite kind of Sushi, or appetizer to order?
