Reviews
I ordered the premium experience which was an additional $20. It was memorable because the food quality is definitely higher for a all you can eat sushi place. You feel like you’re at a real sushi restaurant and that you’re eating high quality sushi.
There’s definitely suggest getting the premium Sushi items because they do seem like they are high-quality. Because I did not try the regular, I did not eat any of the regular items so I can’t speak for any of those. However I did enjoy all the premium items and they were wonderful! Just like getting out of a high-quality sushi restaurant.
I would definitely come back again and try this when I’m back in austin. Check out the pictures they speak for themselves
Unfortunately, I got violently sick after eating only a few pieces and had to stop while still dining. The salmon in particular was extremely fatty and heavy. Because of that, I could only eat one round even though I paid for all-you-can-eat.
As a Japanese person, I noticed menu largely leans more toward Americanized sushi, and there aren’t many rolls that focus on simple raw fish. Not many side dish choices unless you pay for premium which is extra $20. I also wouldn’t recommend the tempura as it was mostly batter with a very tiny shrimp inside.
On top of that, the menu itself was very sticky, and the manager came off as a bit rude. Overall, the place looks good, but the food quality and experience didn’t match the price for me.
Extremely disappointing and poor value. There are much better AYCE sushi options in Austin.
Service:
To be fair, the service itself was fine. Too many staff members stopped by our table, but everyone was nice and trying their best.
Value and Quality:
The biggest letdown was the feeling of a bait and switch and the overall poor value. The website and social media make the menu appear much more extensive than it actually is. In reality, you are offered a 40 dollar standard menu that is extremely limited, plus a 20 dollar upcharge to access the rest of the menu labeled premium. Even with the premium tier, many of the actual premium items are à la carte only.
For 40 dollars you get a very weak roll selection, mediocre nigiri, and a handful of appetizers, some of which were decent. Dishes in the regular menu are overloaded with rice in what feels like a transparent attempt to fill you up cheaply. Fish quality is mediocre and on the lower end of average for AYCE in Austin. Rice quality in particular was below average.
All sashimi and carpaccio are locked behind the 20 dollar upcharge. On top of that, all dessert is an additional charge even with the premium option, which further reinforces how poor the value is.
Summary:
Not worth your time or money. Austin has plenty of better AYCE sushi options.
Better alternatives:
Kyoka in Round Rock. Less expensive, better quality, and a stronger actual sushi selection though the overall menu is significantly smaller. My usual go to.
Sushi Warriors. Similar price and quality but a far better selection.
Machi Sushi. Similar price, equivalent quality, and significantly better variety.
Sushi Junai. Lower price, better quality, and a more complete sushi experience.
Our server was amazing, super attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Great food, great drinks, and great service. This is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend!
Service was prompt and amazing. Ask for Draven! He was an excellent server. The atmosphere here was very nice for a date. Nice dim lighting and well appointed, modern decor.
Price was a bit high, but the quality reflected it. Noticeably higher quality than my previous go-to AYCE sushi spot Sushi Junai 2 despite the price gap.
Overall, well worth the money and had a wonderful experience. Will likely be back soon.
The $40 regular menu offered only the very basic. No sashimi, no carpaccio, no dessert (which are normally included at all the other similar places in Austin)
We decided to try it and upgrade if the first tier was good. It wasn’t. The quality of the food wasn’t great – flavorless rice, mediocre fish.
We ordered hot sake, they were out, then Kirin draft, they were out, then bottle kirin, they were out.
There were so many fruit flies and when we brought it up, the manager said it was a regular problem and offered to relocate us farther from the bar.
The service wasn’t bad, out waitress was nice and continued to check on us and give us options.
Overall this restaurant is a hard pass for future visits. The website and IG posts are deceiving, all the better stuff that most places have is in their $60 menu, which would make sense if the quality was better. I was so disappointed.
This meal was not worth $110 for two people. They had us pay two separate tabs for drinks and for food…
However, the experience was overshadowed by the manager Mel’s attitude. When I tried to ask a simple question about the menu, she cut me off before I could even finish speaking. The interaction was abrupt enough that both I and the person I was dining with were caught off guard. It wasn’t a misunderstanding — it was rude, plain and simple.
What made it worse is that when we mentioned the situation to our server (who was doing a great job), the manager didn’t come back to the table to clarify, apologize, or even acknowledge the situation. She just avoided the table entirely. It left a bad impression and honestly changed the tone of the entire visit.
So while the food and regular staff were on point, the manager’s attitude made the experience uncomfortable enough that I’m not sure I’d return. A place can have good sushi, but if the management makes guests feel dismissed and unwelcome, that matters just as much.
