| - My family decided to eat here last night (a Friday night, mind you) and the wait was SUPER long... an hour and a half! It was definitely too long for my fiance and I to wait, but since we were joining my family we were stuck. I do not know if they take reservations or not, I never really got the chance to ask. There is one bench inside the building (at the entrance) to sit at, but outside there are no chairs or benches at all. There is a brick lining of the building that sticks out that you can sit on, but who really wants to sit on brick for an hour? After waiting about half the time, my fiance and I decided to get a beverage. They serve wine, sake, and beer (no liquor). We never had sake so we decided to get a fruity one! I cannot remember the exact name but it was definitely white peach - and delicious!
After waiting what seemed like FOREVER, we were told our table was ready. We walked inside and the table was not ready yet... We actually saw them still cleaning the table off and rearranging the chairs. I already waited an hour and a half and now I cannot even sit when my table was "ready". Maybe I'm being crazy, or hangry, or maybe even both...
Once seated, we were given a piece of paper where you select which food items you would like from the AYCE. Their rule is to order as much as you can eat, because they charge for the food that you do not finish - so order a few things, and if you are still hungry you can order again. I got the miso soup, spring rolls, and a Charlotte sushi roll with a glass of water. While everyone else already received their drinks, we were still waiting for our waters... It was busy, and the dining room was packed, so it wasn't a huge deal - until we heard our server talking to another server behind us saying "why didn't you finish the drinks?" "I thought you were going to finish them"... miscommunication.
The soups and salad came rather quickly. The miso soup was pretty refreshing. It took quite a while for the appetizers (shrimp tempura and spring rolls). You get two mini spring rolls with a sweet sauce to dip in. I do not like super crispy spring rolls, so these were perfect! They were lightly fried, but still had a little crunch to them. The sushi took a while to come as well, but with the whole table basically ordering 1-2 rolls each, that makes a lot! Once the rolls came it was amazing. The Charlotte roll was very delicious, and tasted fresh. I tried one of my fiance's roll (I forget the name, but it had avocados with jalapenos on top) and it was yummy too. I thought it would be too hot for me, but the avocados kind of mask the hotness and actually make it a bit more creamy.
Overall, the price of the AYCE is good if you plan to eat a light meal for lunch! You definitely want to go here when you are starving. I suggest maybe not going on a Friday night, way too long of a wait. The service was eh, but again they were busy so I really do not know if that was accurate. The food was delicious. I will be back, but for lunch during the week. The price is a little cheaper (since it is lunch) and I do not think there were be nearly as many people waiting.
