My new favorite sushi restaurant! The sushi and all of the food is fresh and delicious. Everything is on a conveyor belt so you can pick whatever you would like to eat and try different types of sushi. We will for sure be back here.

Rotary sushi restaurant that serves an ever-expanding menu of sushi, house specials, ika, kanikama, wakama, hokkigai, crawfish, and other rolls made by chefs within a few minutes. The items are floating on small wooden boats on water around the bar. A couple of recurring customers come and are seated next to us and orders "Rock Shrimp." Within a few minutes the chef dishes out a shiny orange-sauce-coated shrimp plate. I searched for this shrimp item but I couldn't find it on the menu. I finally asked the customer who ordered, where they were able to find this item. And they said that they had seen it offered a few months ago and liked it so much they had asked to have it especially at this time. The chefs kept asking all the customers around the rotary bar saying ,"anything you want we can make it for you!" We especially like the seared salmon and had it requested to be made again later during our time there. I would say it was a modest and a very satisfying. I would highly recommend. I know I'll be returning here in the future. This is a hidden gem of a restaurant.

I absolutely loved Taste of Tokyo! It's a cool sushi place with little wooden boats floating around the sushi bar, and you just pick what you want to eat! All the plates are the same price and you get so much more variety than ordering a standard roll. The chefs were very friendly and will make whatever you want if you don't see it going around the track. Our waitress was very attentive and recommended her favorites based on what was the freshest. I will definitely be going back to try the things I missed!

They lost me as a customer when they got rid of AYCE.
The owner is in the wrong business. I could watch him visibly make a grimace everytime i took another sushi plate. You could see he was angry when you ate a lot. The waitress would swarm around you obviously talking about you in their language. Really low class experience.
