It began with a pair of titanium and hardwood travel chopsticks, carried faithfully in a pocket for twenty-five years. An enduring devotion to the craft of sushi. Followed by months of quiet menu development and Queen B Vinyl Café pop-ups. The search for the perfect sushi masters.
Now, Queen B Sushi has found its permanent home at 816 N. Main Street in Old Town Cottonwood.

Walk-ins are also welcome.
We look forward to serving you soon.

Omakase (お任せ) translates to “I’ll leave it up to you”, coming from the Japanese verb makaseru (to entrust).

The Core Meaning:
• Total Trust: You do not order from a menu. You put your meal completely in the chef’s hands.

• Real-Time Decisions: True omakase has no fixed list of dishes. The chef chooses food based on daily markets, seasonal freshness.

“Although I wasn’t introduced to this term until much later, my first encounter with an Omakase menu was at Sushi Nozawa, in Studio City, CA around 1994. His menu simply said “Trust Me.”
Over time I came to understand that regular patrons knew to do just that. Trust him. And to wait their turn, to conduct themselves in a courteous and respectful manner, and to strap in for the best sushi experience they’ve ever had. Or else. But the ‘Or Else’ part is a whole other story for another time.”

M J Keenan on his introduction to Japanese Omakase style dining.

At Queen B Sushi we embrace this same ethos and take it one step further. With a farm team backing up our menus and lifelong seafood partners we can adapt quickly with the changing seasons to bring the most fresh and unique creations to your table. Our farm team grows several Japanese items, planned out carefully throughout the year with the guidance of Chef Thomas. When you come to Queen B we are embracing you as family, when you order Omakase we are sharing a part of our soul.

Queen B Sushi almost didn’t happen. Owner Maynard Keenan explains, “Jen and I initially dismissed the idea of doing a sushi concept to go along with the Queen B Ramen because we thought it would be impossible to find a decent sushi chef in Cottonwood. Turns out, he was standing right next to us. Enter Chef Brett Vibber.” Japanese cuisine is where Brett’s culinary journey began decades ago. Now, he’s bringing that expertise to Queen B Sushi. Brett recruited our Sushi Masters, Chef Thomas and Chef Sher, and trained our front of house staff. With two days to go, this team is ready to serve you.
Our hours: Sunday, Monday & Thursday: 4 - 9 pm; Friday & Saturday 4 - 10 pm. Closed Tuesdays & Wednesdays.

This corner of N Main Street in Old Town Cottonwood is turning into something special. Excited to be neighbors with Eden at Aqui and making this stretch of Cottonwood feel more multicultural every day.
Four more days until we open our doors.

@queenbsushi, you officially have my heart... and my appetite! 👑 💕🍣
I am so excited for everyone to experience this!!

Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of getting a sneak peek of the new Queen B Sushi, and let me tell you… my taste buds are STILL talking about it! Thank you to my friend @bvibber for inviting me!

And I simply had to try the sake from @arizona1stsake ! 🍶 It was so incredibly delightful that I needed 2 bottles to bring home. This was the very 1st time in my life that I didn’t describe saki to lighter fluid.🤭 It was outstanding!

A HUGE heartfelt thank you to my dear friend Brett Vibber for giving me the opportunity to experience this amazing evening. You are an absolute rockstar! ⭐️❤️

To the incredibly talented chefs—Chef @sheridanchase, Chef @tchihirok and the other talented chef that i unfortunately didn’t catch his name- thank you for tantalizing my taste buds

My waitress Miranda made everything perfect!

THANK YOU to @iamthebriefcase & @licoricelust You two continue to go above and beyond with everything you create, and your passion, creativity, and love for what you do shines through in every detail. @queenbvinylcafe

Congratulations on this beautiful new adventure. I’m already looking forward to coming back. #arizona #sushi #saki taken in Cottonwood, Arizona by @queenbsushi

The standard for fresh sushi in Arizona is about to be completely rewritten.

Every single piece on your plate starts with ingredients grown from our own farms and greenhouses (through our sister business @merkinvineyards), and from our partners who care as much about the ocean and sustainability as we do.

Meet our Sourcing Partners:

Hook to Fork: Bringing us traceable, peak-fresh seafood shipped fresh from the docks.

Organic Ocean Seafood: Supplying pristine, ocean-wise seafood sourced with respect for marine ecosystems from Canada.

Sun Produce CoOp: Delivering fresh, vibrant, healthy local AZ produce that gives every roll its crisp finish. What we don’t grow ourselves, they supply.

Arizona Sake: A Gold Medal award-winning Sake made in Holbrook, AZ by Yokohama, Japan native Atsuo Sakurai, the only First-Grade Sake Brewer in the United States.

Mark your calendars, set your countdowns, and get ready for an authentic sushi dining experience built on transparency, sustainability, and unmatched taste.
