Absolutely delicious sushi experience. Table-serve almost all-you-can-eat at reasonable price. Excellent sashimi cuts.

I came here for lunch for 2 and it was great! All the fish was really fresh and tasty. The service was fast, though maybe because I was 1 of 4 parties there that weekday. My wife just wanted to order a bunch of lion king rolls, but said that something tasted not quite like her favorite lion king rolls, but other than that, we thought it was all great!

My party was the first one to arrive for dinner, so we didn’t have to wait to be seated.Food came out piping hot(fried stuff) and fresh(sushi), took about 10-15 mins for first round, and eventually got longer as there were more tables seated, normal stuff.Service was great, servers were attentive. Good ambiance, it was on a Cantonese playlist though haha.Definitely recommend getting the sashimis, tasted like it came straight from the ocean.

We had a nice lunch here! The food quality is pretty good for a sushi buffet in the East Bay. The nigiri didn’t have way too much rice, which is a good sign. Will come back when I’m super hungry for sushi. Definitely worth the money.Sad to see that all you can drink for additional $5 is not offer anymore, but it’s ok- as I’m not a big drinker. Friendly customer service.

This restaurant has mold on their ceiling and the sushi rack that they recently changed. They should have termite their place before accepting customer

Their menu got changed recently and became not as great as before. Some expensive nigiris are now unlimited but with extra costs to order them. Some items are removed, like oysters. Love their service.

The wait was long but the overall appearance of the restaurant was pleasant. Haven’t been there for years and so to see that it’s no longer a buffet was a surprise. The service was ok being that it was infact busy but very attentive servers:) As for the shrimp skewers that should be illegal meaning it’s awful taste bad quality shrimp shouldn’t be serviced and there shouldn’t be skin of the shrimp or tail in a skewer the flavor everything was lacking. But other than that other than too with the small portions the food was delicious. But the shrimp wasn’t. And the wait wasn’t pleasant.

Maybe not the best quality for sushi, but the reasonable all-you-can-eat price makes it worth a visit if craving for sushi or rolls without being too

Updated menus since summer 2023. Previous mystery box is now called omakase box and limited to one order, no fresh oyster, no uni, fresh huge scallop/toro/salmon belly now needs additional charges.Food is still great, just with less options than before.Parking: There’s 2 parking lots nearby and 2h street parking

Terrible food. Cheap and poorly made buffet food, but they are doing a ghost kitchen to hide it. They are are actually Haniko Sushi

We came for all-you-can-eat sushi, which comes in at under $30/person for lunch most weekdays, before tax/tip. I like that there is a spacious free parking lot nearby.We arrived a little after 12:30pm, and the restaurant remained really packed for hours afterward. By the time we left, there was still a dozen people in the lobby waiting for seats to open.Although it took 15-20min for the waitress to take our very first order, she was pretty good about regularly coming back once the first dish finally made it onto our table.Food itself was unfortunately just ok. Many rolls were disproportionally rice-, mayo-, and sauce-heavy. None of our sushi today came with tobiko, listed on the menu descriptions. Lion King roll was likewise heavy on mayo and rice. Shrimp tempura had an excellent crisp, but the shrimp themselves are very thin and small, making for batter- and oil-heavy bites. Inari nigiri were basic, thin, and tasted too sweet. I found a fish scale in my tuna nigiri. Eggplant skewers were also too sweet- slathered in teriyaki sauce. Pork skewers were too fatty- 3/4 slices were overwhelmingly fat, with pork meat comprising less than 20% of the slice. Miso soup was low on miso and higher on salt to compensate.Tea and soft drinks cost extra, so we made do with hot water.The waitresses were really kind and friendly, but due to the flavors and textures of the food, I wouldn't come back in the future.

Hinata Sushi Kitchen provides a convenient parking option behind Buffalo Bill Café, just across the street. Whether you choose the elevator or stairs at the movie theater corner, the buffet, priced at $40 for adults and $20 for children, lasts around 1.5 hours. Ordering 2-3 sushi rolls is recommended for a satisfying experience. I was impressed by the prompt service, with sushi rolls arriving in less than two minutes. The attentive customer service and quality sashimi make it a worthwhile visit. One suggestion: it would enhance the experience if they brought back the ice cream machine. Overall, I’ll definitely return for the excellent service and food quality.Parking: Next to the movie theater use elevator or walk over the stairsWheelchair accessibility: Elevators available

The price of all you can eat lunch is $39.99, and it also comes with a lot of additional conditions, such as limited time, drink charges, and there are not many choices for food. The taste is not that good, let alone fresh... I am really sorry for such a food experience. Although the price is not expensive, the lunch experience is too bad. I hope the store can improve the food quality.
