Akoya in Karlsruhe offers an all-you-can-eat dining experience with a modern twist.
Instead of a traditional buffet, diners order via tablets directly from their tables, selecting from a wide range of dishes including sushi, grilled items, and various Asian specialties.
This system allows for up to eight ordering rounds, with a maximum of 10 dishes per round, ensuring that food is freshly prepared and promptly served. 
Patrons have praised the quality and taste of the food, noting the efficiency of the tablet-based ordering system. The ambiance is described as pleasant, and the staff generally friendly and accommodating. 
However, some guests have raised concerns. The pricing, especially during weekends, is considered by some to be on the higher side. Sushi variety is also very limited for such a high cost. And the hot sake, for example, barely allows for 1.5 “shots” in the small container provided and half filled.
Additionally, while the tablet system is convenient, first-time users might find it a bit confusing without proper guidance. It’s also important to be mindful of food waste; some establishments implement charges for excessive leftovers to discourage wastage. 
For a positive experience at Akoya, consider visiting on weekdays when it’s less crowded and prices might be more favorable.
Familiarize yourself with the tablet ordering system to make the most of the diverse menu.
Be cautious with portion sizes to avoid unnecessary leftovers, and if you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to ask the staff.

Food was subpar. I know it was an all you can eat buffet but the food lacked flavor and salt and the beef/steak was extremely tough. The shrimp was watery and the steam pieces were tough, but they also seemed to be cut with the grain instead of against it, so it was super chewy. Wait staff didnt speak german. One waitress spoke broken german at best, which was super difficult when she explained the iPad ordering. Also, this might be kind of petty, but they were extremely stingy with the napkins. This proved to be a bigger issue because none of the shrimp was shelled and your fingers got pretty messy after having to shell all the shrimp. Also, quick note for allergy for sufferers, the fried sushi, which contains chicken also contain avocado, but this was not listed on the ingredients list. Braised beef was ok but also dry. Lamb chop was probably the best menu item

I visited this restaurant with a friend for the buffet experience. We’re both Chinese, and the servers who interacted with us were also Chinese. However, we were disappointed by the casual and unprofessional attitude shown toward us throughout our visit.
From the start, the staff addressed us informally as “classmates” in Chinese, without any polite greeting or standard customer service tone. It felt dismissive and overly familiar, as if we weren’t guests but simply people they could speak to however they liked.
The restaurant uses automated robots to deliver food, and since it’s a buffet with many small dishes, I would sometimes place my empty plates on the robot trays to help clear the table. The staff rarely came around to collect plates, so this felt like a reasonable and considerate thing to do. However, after initially offering a polite correction, the servers soon became visibly impatient with the speed at which I confirmed the delivery—repeatedly expressing dissatisfaction in a blunt and critical tone, as if I were disrupting the restaurant’s operations.
While the food itself was fine, the service made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Being spoken to in such an impatient and dismissive way, especially by someone who shares our cultural background, was disappointing. Every guest deserves to be treated with the same level of respect and professionalism, regardless of ethnicity or perceived familiarity.

We went there on a Sunday night, so it was quite expensive. I don’t eat much so usually going to a buffet is really not worth it for me but the big benefit is that you can try so so many different things, you don’t have to order a lot of one meal and be stuck with that. And the selection was really large.
Ordering with the iPads also made it really easy, you didn’t even have to stand up from your table. (Of course you also didn’t get to see what you’re getting before it arrives at your table, the pictures on the tablet are very small and don’t depict the item too accurately and portion sizes were also a real guessing game)
The service was great, less than ten minutes after we ordered our first round they already brought stuff out, there waiters were constantly passing by and taking our empty dishes with them and bringing new ones. The food also tasted yummy, typical Chinese buffet.
In the end we were only able to order 3/8 rounds and didn’t even order the allowed number of 10 dishes per round.
I was very disappointed however, that they didn’t offer baked bananas (or baked pineapple) as a dessert. They only had sesame balls, a fried pumpkin cake, various other cakes (Bienenstich, chocolate etc.), fruit and ice cream for dessert.
The food is good and it arrives very quickly, in theory you’re allowed to order a lot but it is way too expensive for me. They could make it 5€-10€ cheaper p.P. and would still be making more than enough profit and I would come here way more often.

Pretty good food, very friendly staff. All you can eat ordered via a tablet – small individual portions but they keep coming. Didnt have to book – Lots of spare tables on weekday evenings. Staff spoke German and English.

The service was completely bad. There was only one small slice of ginger. The table was piled up with plates and bowls and there was no time to clear it.

Good food (not the desert) and good environment, but the service could be much better. They had a good idea of making a “all you can order” system with a tablet, but we didn’t receive any explanation about the usage. One of the options in the table is “call attendant”, we clicked but they didn’t show up. By the end we had to deduct how to use by ourselves and it was fun an good.
Deserves a change, I recommend the experience.Oi
