I ordered my standard spicy tuna roll and spicy spider roll. The spicy tuna and the spider roll, he meat was ground up. The tuna tasted a little like tuna, but the spider roll definitely did not taste like blue crab, my friend left all of his practically, so I took his home and tried that later did not taste like salmon. and because I couldn't identify it as fish because it was ground up the whole time I was wondering if I was actually eating what I had ordered.

I have been coming to Watami for almost 6 years - since I was 20 and I am 25 now (almost 26). It used to be so so good and still is, however the cleanliness is questionable.
When ordering my potstickers, there was a grey hair on it. Then, I went to the bathroom and the toilet paper had yellow stuff all over the roll and there was some strange liquid around the toilet bowl. Kind of gross.
Waiters never say much, but I don’t mind that. They did raise the price to include the Korean bbq in the price, which I think is “eh.” I didn’t like the Korean bbq last time I was here and would prefer not to pay for it included in the price. Sushi is definitely their specialty.
If you want great raw fish, go to Moar Poke! It’s downtown and they have boba. Very affordable, delicious (family owned) and just very consistent!
The server was barely civil till after the meal was done and we paid. None of them smiled politely till we were leaving. This was our first time. I asked if he could explain the process. He said all you can eat and everything is included. I asked a couple of times because I didn't believe him but he verified -everything- both times and with a bit of a tone. The drinks are not included, I was not surprised but found out when he handed me the receipt. Almost 3 dollars for non refillable hot tea at a restaurant like this is way overpriced. He didn't refill my water till after I paid. They take the plates practically before you remove the last piece to put on the grill. Bottom line, the food was good, they aren't very friendly and it is a learn as you go diy place that you spend approximately 30 dollars a person to cook for yourself. I would have liked dessert but it wasn't offered. The screen turns off and I could not figure out how to turn it back on. We will for sure think twice before going back.

This will be my last time coming here! The other Watami location on Pendleton Pike has horrible service, terrible food and you should avoid that location at all costs. This location (Broad Ripple) isn’t any better. I went to the AYCE lunch today at the Broad Ripple location today. I decided to give this place another chance and they now have Korean BBQ added to the AYCE. This place just never seems to have their act together and just seems very dysfunctional. They forgot to bring several items to my table and a couple of times brought the wrong items to my table.
They were out of squid, which wasn’t a big deal. But the moment they told me they were out of LETTUCE for the lettuce wraps, I knew that this was the last straw. They can’t just go down the street to the nearest grocery store and buy basic lettuce until their next shipment comes in?! Just beyond ridiculous! It just didn’t feel like a Korean BBQ place at all. The owner has NO idea how to run a Korean BBQ place!
At other Korean BBQ restaurants, there’s either a sauce bar, or you’re provided with sauces at your table. They didn’t automatically provide sauces and there’s no sauce bar. So I had to directly ask for sauces. Avoid this place and go elsewhere!

The $14.95 Hamachi Kama I ordered tonight was definitely just cut up seared salmon filets. There were zero fish collar bones anywhere to be found. Cooked well and fine to eat I'll admit, but definitely a lie about what this was

All you can eat sushi, sashimi, nagiri and SO much more! One of my fave spots. And was surprised this visit to see they now have Korean BBQ and was newly remodeled, looks great!
I went for lunch after not visiting for years. I was delighted to see the nice renovations and the tech upgrade. Great improvements!! The soup and salad are memorable and tasty. Very fast service.
