| - Of the three sushi buffets in the Cleveland area that I'm aware of (Kumo, Watami, Yellowtail), this one has the best quality sushi. Granted, you're better off coming here on weekends or whenever it's busy so that the sushi stays fresh. Also, they don't have as big of a sushi selection as the others, but the rolls they do offer are well made and taste good. They even offer the spider roll (soft shell crab). They have the best sashimi as well. The hot food side is lacking in variety and is generally nothing to write home about, but the shrimp tempura and the veggie tempura here beats out the competition. The fried rice is better here too.
Used to frequent this place almost on a weekly basis, and the service is very friendly and helpful. They treat returning customers very well too, sometimes with specially prepared dishes. My mom can't eat seafood, so they prepare a special fish dish for her. One of the sushi chefs saw me grabbing a spider roll, he stops me and gives me a giant chunk of softshell crab. Score. I would normally rate this 3 stars, but they get more points for their excellent customer service.
Since Kumo opened, I haven't been back, but that's not to take anything away from Watami, which still holds its own.
