| - I was recommended Kuu Sushi and after I read the reviews, I had to give it a try! I was pretty impressed!
Kuu has a lot of things that aren't part of your typical Japanese AYCE that I found pretty cool. They have a small buffet area with a salad bar, soup, ice cream, soft serve ice cream (which was amazing!), fruit and a couple desserts, and cold shrimp and mussels. The highlights were the shrimp and soft serve ice cream! The shrimp was peeled and fairly big, I had a plate full of them! The chocolate soft serve ice cream was really good. It has tiny bits of chocolate in it and was probably some of the best soft serve ice cream I've had.
The service was very quick. From clearing plates, to asking if I wanted drink refills, to quickly bringing out the food, I was really impressed with them. They seemed a bit rushed at times but the restaurant was very busy so it was understandable. All my orders were also exactly correct, which unfortunately seems to be rare for AYCE restaurants.
The decor was modern and very clean but my area felt a bit too cramped. The table next to me was about an arms-length away. They have booth areas where I wish I was seated instead.
I like that Kuu tries to have something for everyone. Aside from the food I mentioned earlier, they also have a bunch of other items that aren't typical of your standard Japanese AYCE: french fries, onion rings, Thai noodles and curries, roti, and more.
I also like that they have descriptions for all of their sushi rolls so you know what's in them and what to expect. My biggest gripe with Japanese restaurants is that they make up sushi rolls and don't tell you what's in them. While I wish Kuu had a wider variety of rolls that don't have torched salmon or cream cheese (stick to the basics!), I like that I know what I'm getting by reading the descriptions.
While some of their food is hit and miss, overall I really enjoyed Kuu Sushi! I'm definitely going to be going back and bringing everyone I know!
