This place is becoming one of my favorite places to go. Besides being one of the few all you can eat sushi places around, it does offer a nice variety of foods. Everything I've eaten has been good. For an all you can eat place, the sashimi doesn't taste like it's been sitting around. For the most part, it tastes fresh and cut to order. The beef skewers have a great taste and tender meat. The only skewer I didn't care for as much was the pork belly. It was a little on the dry side and tougher to chew. Basically everything else I've tried, from the fried calamari to the varieties of fish, it's been good!

Expensive, especially during the weekend, and you have a time limit to eat there, but it's decent - I think it's an hour or 1.5 hours. Good food, all you can eat.

Nah mate, this was rough. This place is located on the second floor and is wheelchair accessible. A good bit of the raw fish was just flavorless. It looks good but then doesn't taste like anything. The scallops and eel were good here. The hand roll was fun. The tonkatsu was actually pretty good but it didn't come with enough sauce. The baked mussels are wayyyyyy too garlicky. The omakase box looks great and has good flavor to it but then fish count scales with your party size. Save yourself btw and don't get the tempura. It wasn't an enjoyable eat. The rice bowls were actually pretty alright, besides again, the plain raw fish. But they took 2/3 of our stay there to get them out to us.

This all wouldn't be too bad but the service was rough. We barely saw any help and had to chase people down. And like they just forgot our order on some items and we had to reorder. The thing is, it's all remote too. Like the website they ask you to order from has buttons to add your order and to call for service and a lot of times it seemed like they didn't pay attention so the wait ordered items wasn't steady.

Expect to pay $160 plus for a party of 4 2 adults 2 kids. The auto gratitude fee you are forced to pay is outrageous. Will not be back to this place.

If you want to eat nigiri you have no options here. I hope you only like tuna or salmon. The rolls lack variety and the appetizers are poorly executed. The sushi box was nice but that is one order per table and we were a bit disappointed in what we got versus what we saw on instagram. It’s the whole reason we made the drive out to Hayward in the first place. Not worth the price tag.

Recently moved to Hayward from Fremont, and was asked to give this recommendation a try. I was really impressed with the quality of their seafood and the speed of service. The staff were all very nice and welcoming, which is major in the food industry.

Started off with the Omakase box, pork belly skewers, miso soup, gyudon, potstickers, and chicken karaage. Everything was a hit! My favorite had to be the pork belly. I'm not sure what the sauce was, but it's was sticky, sweet, and delicious.

I ended my order with a few other rolls that were extremely satisfying. Everything ordered was shared family style, and we were beyond stuffed. $200+ for a group of 4, with all the food we ordered, is a steal compared to full menu restaurants.

Do yourself a favor and skip this place—it’s not worth the $40 per person! Here’s why I’m giving it 1 star:
1. Frozen Fish: The fish was practically still frozen when it arrived at the table. It wasn’t fully thawed, and it was served ice-cold—completely unappetizing.
2. Dry Skewers: The skewers were a huge disappointment. I was expecting yakitori-style grilled perfection, but instead, they were just dry, over-fried pieces of beef or chicken on a stick. No flavor, no texture—just bad.
3. Unprofessional Service: The waitress was eating while serving tables. She literally chewed as she brought my food to the table, which was both unprofessional and gross.

Overall, this was hands down the worst all-you-can-eat experience I’ve ever had. The food was terrible, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Save your money!

The food was very mediocre at best. Very limited menu. Service wise, i ordered hash browns which had 2 on the picture. They ended up giving me 5 because carbs are obviously less expensive for an all you can eat. At the very end when we paid, the waiter stared at my friend while waiting for a tip

This restaurant has AYCE sushi menu option, which is a preferred option if you love Sashimi and the Skewers. This restaurant is not really traditional japanese sushi restaurant. The skewer seems like not the Kusiyaki, it is more like BBQ stuff.
The environment is nice and quiet, but the background music playing some sort of Chinese songs instead of Japanese or japan themed songs. That is really odd compare to other sushi restaurant.

Parking: There is a garage parking nearby. Maybe it will be crowded during weekend and night time. I went there on weekday for lunch time, there was a lot of parking spaces in the parking garage

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is at second floor, and there is an elevator for you to get to the restaurant.

We went on a Tuesday at 5pm to avoid the dinner rush. It was our first time there so we weren't sure what to expect. There were a few people eating when we got there but the majority of the space was empty.

Food:
The sashimi was surprisingly not bad. It wasn't the best but it was better than some sushi restaurants. The omakase had the best cuts of the fish. They were fresh and melted in your mouth type of good.

The chicken skewers were pretty nice as well. You get 2 skewers per order. The scallop skewers were okay. The scallop on the omakase was the best, fresh and sweet.

I gave it a 3 star for food because although it was good I didn't feel like it'd be fair to other sushi restaurants with really nice sushi for all their dishes.

The service was quick and very friendly. They were attentive as well. We went during an off time though so it might be different if you're there during a rush.

This place is also really affordable for the amount of food.

Overall, I'd go again but not often because it's a lot of food.

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures!

It doesn't have a food bar where you can choose what you want to eat.You have to choose from A menu and you are only allowed 3 choices at a time. Most of the dishes are very small order. You have to wait each time to make your order.
The photos look good but to order the bento box it's like $35.00 and takes like a 35-40 minutes wait.
It doesn't live up to the standard of the Sushi business that it replaced.
My recommendation is to get a new manager. Someone who knows the business.
