Food is good but staffs somehow put more attention on their phones instead of customers,……..

Probably the freshest AYCE sushi place l’ve tried so far.

When ordering, there is a limit to how many starred items you can order per round and a max of how many items you can order.

Overall was very happy with the quality of the fish and the nigiri.

The quality of fish is very good! It’s a bit tricky to order for ppl who’ve never been here. But once you understand how to order it’s very simple!
I really liked the place and food.
However last time I went, they didn’t have Uni and some other starred items I was so disappointed and felt like overpaying for all you can eat.

Tried this place for lunch. It was delicious.

The sushi was okay. The edamame was cold and hard. I'm not sure if it's because we went later on in the evening. The food didn't seem very fresh. After eating a few pieces of sashimi, I didn't feel super great. Overall, didn't have a great experience, especially for the prices we're paying. Not a lot of variety for the food.

Plenty of good food there.

The buffet is a bit pricey & is not self-served. But the buffet items are wide and includes soft drinks, and the service is quick.

A little on the expensive side, but a fun experience overall. Large set of rules, but main rule is 2 ordinary items per special item. Fairly tasty overall. Small line but not horrible.

Ultra Sushi is an all-you-can-eat sushi spot with a somewhat relaxed atmosphere. The food is decent overall, though there are a few standout dishes. If you order sushi rolls, the rice might taste a bit too vinegary for some. However, if you go for sashimi or nigiri, you’ll get some of the best quality options they offer. On the downside, the teriyaki beef was awful and not recommended.

I ordered unlimited food, but it took a very long time from ordering to coming out, and they charge tips as they please. And if you split the payment by card, you will be charged an additional card split fee.

One of the waiters is terrible. He put the receipt on the top of my food, and grabbed the tip of my chopsticks with gloves on after cleaning the neighboring table.

And why are there so many rules of all you can eat? You cannot order more than three at a time. Only one starred food per order. No more than three times on the same food.

And very expensive

We were uncertain about how this Ayce sushi restaurant would be but it turned out very well. For each starred item, you must pick two regular items but you can eat all you want. The size of the cuts of sashimi depends on the chef so there was variation in the cuts of fish. Also the first pieces were smaller and the later pieces were much bigger. The quality of the fish was very good and so we were happily surprised. Service was very quick and good, there was a fast turnaround after we ordered. The food came quickly and then we got an iPad for our next order. Oh yes, the mussels were tasteless so skip that!!!

Our team recently visited this restaurant for a team offsite and enjoyed the “all you can eat” experience. Overall, it was a good experience with high cost-effectiveness, and the food quality was generally decent. However, we noticed a few areas that could be improved:

1. Seafood quality: The quality of the seafood, especially the raw items, was below expectations. While most of the dishes were satisfactory, the seafood, particularly the raw options, didn’t meet the expected freshness and quality standards.
2. Ordering process: We understand that the restaurant aims to prevent food waste, but later in the meal, the ordering process became somewhat complicated. There were combination requirements that made it difficult for us to order exactly what we wanted. This sometimes left us either not ordering anything or choosing dishes that weren’t our preferred options, which affected the overall experience.
3. Service: The service was quite good overall. The staff were friendly and professional throughout the meal. Despite the complexity of the ordering system, they remained positive and helpful.

We think the restaurant offers a nice dining experience, but there’s room for improvement, especially regarding seafood quality and the flexibility of the ordering process. We hope these areas can be refined for an even better experience in the future.

Arguably one of the best ayce sushi spots I’ve tried. There is unlimited hot sake, and a large variety of high quality seafood.

For 45.99 per person (+ tax, tip), you get raw oysters, uni, tuna toro ngiri, salmon sake belly ngiri, hamachi belly ngiri - all of which are typically the most expensive cuts of the fish. In addition to sushi, they also serve short rib and fried soft shell crab.

Note that there were some weird rules to ordering to limit the quantity of the premium items on the menu. For every person, they can add up to 3 items per to order - two regular items for every premium item. The regular orders were easily feasible with sashimi.

All you can eat... if you can figure out how to order food in the first place. The tablet isn't very good at ordering and service is rough. But that's the cost of endless sashimi. Fish quality was okay.
