| - This place serves All-You-Can-Eat sushi, appetizers, noodles and hibachi for a set price. If you plan to spend less than the buffet price (18.99 weekend adult or weekday dinner, 12.99 weekday lunch) on individual menu items, I'd suggest going for a la carte instead. They offer both options. The difference with here and other buffet joints is that they make all the food to order. There aren't stale looking pieces of dried fish sitting on a counter for hours, being picked apart by customers. You order It and they start making It so everything stays freshly prepared.
I've been to the Pineville location and It was delicious so I was stoked when this location opened.
Came for lunch on a busy Saturday afternoon with my friends. Two ordered off the menu while the other two, including myself, opted for AYCE. They were able to customize the rolls I wanted since there were certain rolls with things I didn't like. I don't eat raw salmon and I hate cream cheese in sushi. Since they make food to order, It was easily omitted. My friend ordered BBQ squid which was not good at all! The sauce was very thick, sweet and overpowering. But everything else we ordered was delicious. The tuna is fresh and oh so yummy! Shrimp tempura was crispy and piping hot out of the fryer. If you're hungry, this place is for you.
My only gripe about their AYCE option is they charge $1 per sushi slice left uneaten and their rolls were 6-9 slices each. They didn't overdo the rice on each roll (which would be a bit unethical, if you ask me) but it's still large portions. If you're like me, one roll is not enough to fill you but two is too much food and you'll be charged for food waste. I know this prevents people from over-ordering and wasting so much food but you can't take leftovers home so the chances of you having to pay $3-$5 extra is very likely, at least It is for me. I took off one star for that policy. I'd be more in agreement with It if they offered smaller portions so you could try a variety without fear of being overcharged.
