| - The concept of AYCE Sushi is new to me moving here to Vegas. At first it sounds too good to be true, followed by a sneaking suspicition of poor quality and limited selection.
Not at Island Sushi! For $20.99 at lunch ($24.95 for dinner), you get a large selection of rolls, nigiri, appetizers, and even desserts. I mostly avoided the apps (ordered a miso soup and edamame), and stuck with the nigiri. The fish was fresh and tasty, and the quality was just as good for the most part of some of the fancier sushi joints I have tried around the country. If you come hungry, you definitely get you money's worth without sacrificing quality.
The atmosphere leaves a bit to be desired, as its in a strip mall and seating area is just cheap tables and chairs. If you want a fancy dining experience, this is not the place. I was by myself for lunch and the sushi bar has a small flatscreen TV to watch while I stuffed myself. They also do quite a few happy hour type specials on rolls and sake bombs throughout the week if you aren't in the AYCE mood. For your non-raw fish eating friends, the other half of the restrauant has a pretty extensive cooked Hawaiian menu. However, I don't forsee myself trying that anytime soon. The sushi deal here is just too good! Just remember to save some room for that 808 Special dessert!
