More than sushi at Saporro
I know that this is deep for my East Valley people, but I'd say this happy hour is not only one of the best for sushi and good eats but if you love watching people come from work and get just hammered for cheap, this is your place.
I love this place. My favorite dish is the seared yellow-tail with a jalapeno on top. So good... I can't get enough. The service here is money; they are always nice to me and the people I go with.
Two things that I think keep me coming back is one, that cougars (older single women) and coyotes (older single men) operate here in big numbers. This is their territory and it's great to catch a glimpse of them prowling around and having a good ole time with the younglings that fall prey to great drinks and eats that put a spell on you, young and old alike.
The second thing I gotta say brings me back is the food. This is my favorite sushi place and I may joke around about cougars and coyotes but it wouldn't even matter if it was a retirement home. Best sushi place in Phoenix.

I fished for albacore tuna one summer. We dragged lures around the middle of the Pacific… and every couple of weeks we’d luck into a yellow tail school and hook a couple. They look like a cross between a salmon and a mahi-mahi, and that’s the best-tasting fish ever. And two hours out of the water, it’s dynamite.
I thought the old dudes were called “bobcats”. Hah, maybe not.

Channing – for sushi in this area, you gotta try Pure in Scottsdale. My wife isn’t crazy about sushi and even she loved it here. Can be a little pricey, but last time we went they had happy hour even on Saturdays which helps.
Can’t wait for the season with the Suns man, been a fan since you were at the U (even though I’m a Sun Devil).

Hey Channing,
Blazer fan here, wishing you a successful season, and keeping my fingers crossed you can lock down that starting role in Phoenix.
We appreciate everything you have done for the city of Portland!

I’ll buy you sushi if you get me a FRYE jersey. Where they at?
