The food was pretty good — We did the all you can eat. I did the math and realized it was cheaper to buy à la carte instead by almost $20. I asked the server if she was able to change that and she seemed hesitant. I offered that maybe a manager could make the change and she told me she wasn’t allowed to. I told her it was fine and that she could just run the card. She came back and said she fixed it this one time and that we shouldn’t do all you can eat next time. She wasn’t rude but she was hesitant to make things right, and even after I said it was fine, she still made it seem like a bigger deal than it should’ve been. This is nothing against the server — she can’t help the policies or training given by the business. I do recommend shifting towards a guest-first business practice though.

We both had NEVER been here before. He let me pick our dinner plans for the night so I googled places near our hotel deciding between sushi and seafood. The seafood options weren't to pleasing to me. There were lots of sushi options to choose from but came down between this one and another one. But I chose this one off of reviews and the pictures people posted, and we were both so glad that I did. This place is offers AMAZING food. We had the all you can eat sushi option, where you choose different sushis from their 2 sided menu and you have like 70 mins to eat all you can. The names they have for some of these sushis are hilarious. It cost I believe $34 or $39. I just don't know if it's per person or together since you're sharing it. Since I didn't pay for it, I didn't get to see the bill.

Honest Review: I’ve been coming to this location consistently for about six months. It’s been my go-to spot for lunch breaks, meeting up with friends, and even a few dates. I’ve never had bad service here—until these past two weeks. The first time I got bad attitude from a server, I assumed it was a fluke. I still tipped $5 with my friend because everyone has long days. But this week confirmed it wasn’t just a one-time thing.
I came in alone, sat down, and at first the service was fine. Then the manager started taking some of my orders in between the server’s. When I tried to order an item that was limited, he told me I couldn’t order it more than once. Totally fine—but I explained I already the item twice bc one was taken by the server and one by him, and I simply hadn’t realized.
By then I was full and asked for the check, and that’s when everything went downhill.
Basic restaurant etiquette: tipping should be private. The employee should not hover or stare at the payment screen. He set the payment scanner directly on my table and then started questioning me for not tipping on the card. I was surprised and told him, “I’m just trying to pay and leave, if that’s okay with you.” I was already late for an event and didn’t expect to be held up by someone pressuring me over a tip. Then he said, “The servers don’t like helping you because you don’t tip. They complain to me.” I nodded and responded, “Maybe you should pay them more then, so they don’t complain abt their customers.”
I’ve worked in food service for five years. I know what it’s like to rely on tips, I know how hard the job is, and I always make an effort to support staff. But shaming or confronting a customer because they choose not to tip on a card—especially when they *planned* to leave a cash tip—is unacceptable. It creates an unsafe, uncomfortable environment and puts a bad look on the restaurant.
This place has officially lost a loyal customer. Either fix the management or fix the staff—because this behavior is completely inappropriate.

What one would expect for what I would consider a small hole in the wall sushi place. Dark, sports on the t.v. K-Pop Demon Slayer's Gilden playing g. If you sit at the bar you still have to wait for a waiter to come take your order. Everyone was very nice, prices and sushi as expected.

We had dinner buffet. Everything was fantastic way more than I expected. Fresh fish well prepared, we definitely come back again
Came here with 4.2/5 star expectations and leaving with my belly on 10/5 reality. This place is so underrated. The sushi cuts they give us were very very generous for the ayce price. Before trying here, I ate at Kan Sushi and it had vastly different experience. The amount of sushi rice Kan sushi gave us and cuts were cheapsake. This place they know customers comes for the raw fish and provided smaller rice portions and bigger fish cuts!!
The menu is also quite numerous compared to usual sushi ayce places. Every sushi item I ordered were fresh and delicious!

I got the all you can eat and I like that they have no restrictions of what you can order! Everything is included in the ACYE it was so good I ate so much. Sushi so fresh, no tummy ache after!! 10/10 food. Service is fine.
