Kawaii Sushi and Asian Cuisine was first established on 04/21/2014 in Glendale, and we expanded to our second location on 12/01/2018.

Kawaii is a true "Mom and Pop" family restaurant that Kelly Yu works alongside with her Aunt Lisa, and Uncle Wang "The Chef's", Uncle Sumarto "Food Runner & Packer", Zita Yu "The mini Me" and many other family members. Kawaii Head Chef's co-owner aunt Lisa and uncle Wang brought their 30 years Cantonese wok-cooking experience and passion in creating Kawaii recipes to the restaurant's unique flavorful dishes. Bruce Lee and Max Zhao learned their sushi skills from chefs with over 25 years of traditional Japanese sushi experience, with over 6 years of experience they carry on their master's skills, also using their talents and creativeness to bring Kawaii to another level.

Kawaii GM/co-owner Kelly Yu has over 20 years in the restaurant industry and 6 plus years managing Kawaii. Kelly is the "face of the franchise" as she's a terrific host and asset to the communities of Upper West Side Arizona. Managing both locations Yu handles all business operations, and is also extremely active in Kawaii's community relations, giving back to the areas she serves. A member of both the Peoria and Glendale Chamber of Commerce, Yu's leadership goes beyond business as both an active member and supporter in many charitable causes, youth sports, and music programs throughout the community.

An inspiring entrepreneur Yu is also a co-owner of another creative culinary fusion concept called Poke Maki also located in Glendale, Arizona.

Kawaii also founded a program to hire first time workers, many of them students, providing them with training and education as they begin their careers. All of these efforts have led to what Kawaii customers and west valley residents have learned since the beginning and what has become the Kawaii motto "Kawaii Cares."
