I also tried their earl grey high ball cocktail and was surprisingly very refreshing and flavorful !! I will be back!! read more

My mom and I came in during the evening and unfortunately the experience felt rushed and unwelcoming from the start. The restaurant was extremely cold inside with both the AC and fans running despite chilly weather outside. We asked if the air could be lowered because we were freezing, and although they said they would adjust it, the overall atmosphere still felt uncomfortable. The staff also seemed eager to close early and rushed us through ordering. At one point, my mom couldn't open her drink bottle, and even our waitress struggled with it. When another staff member was asked for help, the reaction from the kitchen felt more mocking than helpful, which made the situation awkward. Another strange detail was that our separate sushi rolls were served together on one large wooden board rather than individually plated. Staff also began sweeping and cleaning nearby while we were still eating, and the check was brought to the table before we even asked for it, which made us feel hurried out. The food itself unfortunately did not taste particularly fresh, and neither of us felt well afterward. We also left smelling heavily like kitchen oil and smoke. What disappointed us most was that when concerns about the experience and food quality were mentioned, nobody attempted to make things right or showed much interest in the feedback. Sadly, this was not an experience we would return for. read more

Our waitress Jaelin was kind and attentive! The sushi is fresh and there's a lot of variety to choose from. I would avoid the fried items as I felt the texture was smoochy. However, flavor profile was there! They have nice lighting, it's clean and there's good music playing at the perfect volume. read more

Aikan Sushi - Full menu - Izakaya Near Me - Northridge, California

Wow! I cannot believe I haven't tried AIKAN until now. This is by far the BEST AYCE SUSHI in all of the SFV! All of the nigiri was super fresh and so soft. The rolls were all great and full of flavor. There literally was not a single item we ordered that we didn't like! We paid $42 for the regular menu and there was plenty of variety with plenty of appetizers, nigiri, rolls, and more! The service was fast and easy as our server was always making sure we had everything we needed and our food was arriving quickly and they did a great job with presentation. The ambiance was nice and casual but also very clean and nice not too casual like most AYCE places. Plenty of booths and bar seating!! The restaurant is located in a large plaza with plenty of parking so there's never a problem finding parking. read more

Amazing place to get all you can eat sushi. So many options. You can order traditional one piece sushi with rice, sushi roll, shareable dishes,and no rice 2 pieces. Unlimited rounds for 2 hours. It was so filling, wife and I ordered and didn't know food were going to come out so quickly. Service was fast on a weekday.dinner. All we did was kept eating all these delicious food presented in front of us. Definitely an experience for just getting your belly full with lots of sushi. The parking lot is usually not too busy, so parking not a problem. Just be warned you may be full for quite a well after this meal, may skip the next morning breakfast. read more

We visited Aikan Sushi and had a really good experience. The sushi was fresh and well prepared, and we especially appreciated the all you can eat option. It made it easy to try a variety of items and made the meal feel like a good value. I was with a group, so it was a bit chaotic once the plates started coming out, which made it hard to grab photos, but I did manage to get one of the nigiri. Everything we tried was solid. Overall, a great spot if you are looking for all you can eat sushi in the area, and we would definitely return next time we are in Burbank. read more

Aikan Sushi is easily one of the best value-for-money AYCE spots in the Valley. As a student, finding high-quality sushi at an affordable price point is a win, especially with its proximity to CSUN. We came during a busy shift, but the service remained top-notch--the staff was attentive and kept the rounds coming without a long wait. The ambiance is a major standout; the seating area has a sleek, modern aesthetic, and even the digital menus feel high-end. It doesn't have that typical cramped AYCE feel. Parking is usually a headache in this part of town, but they have a massive lot, which makes the logistics stress-free. Plus, being in such a central plaza means there's plenty to do nearby (perfect for walking off a food coma). This is definitely becoming a staple in my rotation! read more

This is one of my personal favorite AYCE restaurants in the valley. They have a large selection of rice free options and recently they began accepting takeout orders which is great. The kitchen items, which are generally an after thought, are genuinely good here. The service is a hit or miss depending on the day, and it is a pretty typical AYCE sushi vibe. The main thing I enjoy about this restaurant is that their rolls are actually 1/2 rolls. This gives you the ability to try a much wider variety of sushi. It also allows for you not to be stuck with a role you don't enjoy. I didn't find the premium options to be worth it for my taste personally. Ultimately, solid AYCE that I highly recommend! read more

This is a very very Americanized sushi place, Sweet syrups and spices over while the delicate flavors of fish here All you can eat sushi is the thing here. I did al la carte. If you like syrups and sweetness and honey flavors and spice on your sushi to the point where you can't taste your fish, this is your place I ordered all a cart to get sushi without sauces and syrups I had the chiriashi bowl , it was OK I don't know why sushi places put lots of tofu in a dish , thinking that you're gonna eat it I guess it has to look like you have lots of food, but I've never eaten tofu I came here to eat fish, not tofu The bank for the buck here is really really really high five stars for that The hot saki was mediocre. I thought it tasted kind of off. The rice that came with my chiriashi wasn't very warm The rice had a pickled cucumber ? garnish on it that I had to scrape off to get to the rice that I really wanted I tried some seafood poppers that were so sweet and pepper that I couldn't even taste the fish. It might've been a boring piece of bread that was messed up with spice. My bad. I think at sushi place it is sacrilege to spice something so much that you can't tell that you're eating fish. I had Uni my favorite thing at any sushi place I had to scrape off the adornments because I just wanted to taste it without the garnish they put on top The one Americanized thing I did have that loved was the muscles They have to baked muscle product that has some mild cheese and spice onion shoots is actually quite fantastic Wanna come here again. Maybe. If you like Americanized sushi, you like sauce and spices and a sauce on your sushi to the point you can't even taste the fish you'll love this place. It's a lot of Bang for the back. I grew up eating at sushi restaurants owned by Japanese families I prefer sushi to not be messed up by America, sweet and spicy flavors I spend a lot of money to taste the fish I want to taste the frikimg fish Not jalapeño Also. They use an " upper scale " Chopstick. That's been turned on a lathe of sanded smooth. Between the smooth surface in the chopsticks. And the thin slices of fish. I had a hard time. First in 30 yrs. Of making the fish stay in the chopsticks. Cheap. Rough surface chopsticks actually work better. ( kinda like that story about brown rice actually being healthier than the rich folks white rice.) Look that malnutrition story up! Fancy isn't best. read more

My impression here is mixed. What's sticking is smaller cuts of fish in the poke fish order, and I did a bad job ordering a mix of rolls bc they were too similar. Rolls are either spicy tuna or initiation crab, and the variations from there. It's more expensive than the local Hikari Sushi (AYCE in Chatsworth) . The interiors look newer than Hikari but that's on the superficial. Service was good. On fish portion, the nigiri orders were great - seared salmon, scallops. I should stick to this next time. Rolls are mostly stuffed with imitation crab or spicy tuna. We generally avoid tuna for mercury watch outs so it was a lot of imitation crab for us. I will do a better job looking at my mix of rolls-- someone said they all tasted the same, and I had the same experience. But it was probably because we ordered rolls that were too similar across person to person (eg viper and tiger). I like that the rolls are fewer pieces so I can manage the portion better and try more rolls instead. If I order teriyaki dinner again, I would ask for sauce on the side as it is too sweet with the full portion poured over. read more

Had a great experience here once again, this time with a group of 7 as we celebrated a birthday on a Wednesday evening!!! This spot unfortunately doesn't do any reservations days in advance and even with coming a few hours beforehand, we still couldn't reserve a table. The lady gave an estimate that our wait may be 15 minutes earlier, but of course when we all came there, the wait was about an hour because a lot more people came. When you give your name, they ask for your phone number as they will text you. On the bright side, the AYCE sushi was amazing and delicious, with the sushi coming out very efficiently!!! We all ate our stomachs' fill and enjoyed every round. The salmon sashimi was fresh, melt-in-your-mouth, and soft! My favorite is always the fried squid. The fried edamame was a surprise to me and I enjoyed each bite as well. We ended our night much later than planned due to needing to wait a while before sitting inside, but it was all good vibes after!! read more

When you are in an AYCE mood for Sushi, one of the best places in the SFV is Aikan Sushi, in Northridge. This time, I visited over the weekend and the place was packed. In order to get a booth, I had to wait outside for about 20 minutes. They have a good selection for their AYCE menu and I always choose the regular (as opposed to the premium). My favorite is always the Sashimi and here, their Poke versions of Salmon and Yellowtail (which comes with a slice of jalapeño) are my two favorites. You get only 4 pieces of each for an order and I clearly noticed how thin the fish slices have become. After some rounds of those, it was time to move onto repetitions of shrimp and seared shrimp sushi. They always hit the spot. During this process, I also go through several servings of ginger. Their miso soup is superb, always served piping hot with fresh cut scallions floating in the cloudy pool. Delicious. I cannot leave without having my two cooked choices. The jalapeño shrimp and the fried oysters. Both are served immediately after they are fried and assembled for presentation. Be careful not to bite into them right away, because they are real hot. The shrimp is plump and cooked perfectly. The oysters always fresh and juicy with a nice crisp and brown outer fried panko covering. Service here is always polite, attentive and swift. Plates are taken away the moment they get empty and new orders arrive soon. You will never feel neglected. The whole operation is well run, because there are people outside waiting to come in. If only they played Japanese music, instead of the loud pop or rock and roll inside. Unfortunately, that adds to the noise level of an already crowded (and talkative), dining space. read more

It gets the job done, but the fish isn't super flavorful, and the baked rolls lean fishier than I'm used to. Hated the salmon skin roll so much I sent it back, which I never do I enjoyed the eel and LOVE their miso soup, but otherwise there are better options for AYCE. Kind and attentive workers! read more

Amazing place!! Food, Service and Ambiance all great!! My family and friend we kept coming here every occasion.

Great place! I had a wonderful experience here with my family and friends. The sushi was fresh, tasty, and beautifully plated. We ordered a variety of specialty rolls, sashimi plates, and nigiri and everything was delicious. My favorite were the jalapeño topped rolls they had. It was spicy but the flavor was perfect with the spice. The restaurant had a fun vibe but wasn't too loud. It was perfect for groups and families. The service was friendly, attentive, and quick even with our big party. Drinks were also great! Everyone left stuffed and happy. Will definitely be back. read more

Great tasting sushi and the AYCE Menu is extensive, great variety, and just plain delicious. Did not try the premium AYCE but the regular AYCE menu was great- lunch open to 3pm is $35.99 pp, dinner is $42.99 You can choose poke, salad, appetizers, udon, sushi, classic rolls, signature rolls, baked rolls, fried rolls, and no rice rolls Anything yellowtail and salmon is a must for me and everything tasted fresh. I like that a lot of their rolls had some spicy components like habanero. Shout out to the Mojave roll! Anyway lots of creativity and good flavor combinations to be found. There's something for everyone. Service was a tad slow and although plenty of staff, not much attention given to the tables. We asked for another pair of chopsticks and they never came. They have plenty of tvs inside so good place to feast and catch a game. read more

Second time at this location for dinner. It's way smaller than the others that we've been to. Plenty of parking which always is great. Come a little before the dinner rush as it does get crowded and there's always a line. Menu wise, some items have changed name wise. They're known for their AYCE sushi's. Both the regular menu as well as the premium. You're still able to order a la carte items. But for the price you would pay for that, just seems a better deal having the All you can eat. Same concept everywhere with the order sheet. There's a time limit on dining. Order everything you want for the first round. Mainly people last about 3 if they don't get full by the second round. Plenty of starters to choose from. I like to keep that to minimum as I rather have sushi over anything else. Mussels, which I highly recommend. The sausage, it's good but I think they downsize the order. I could have sworn it was 3 piece per order but now it's 2. Then there's the yellowtail and salmon hama (collar). The yellowtail always seems to be out at all the location I've been to. Shishito peppers is always a good choice. Easy to enjoy as they're still light and not over filling. The carpaccio which is now poke on the menu. That's also a must. What sucks is, if you order a couple order, it all comes separately. There's so much plates that it takes up the table. Can't they just combine it onto one plate. Then comes the sushi. Give it all to me. Each order is one piece. There's pretty much everything that you can choose from. Beside sushi, they have some pieces that's doesn't have rice which is really nice. They're an easy eat without getting full from all the rice. We don't get the rolls as I rather have more to enjoy than having 6/8 piece of the same thing with loads of rice. The food was great. Everything come out at different time so be advised with that. Also, some items didn't get delivered to our table which was ok. Plus some dishes have been taken off the menu from the last time I was here. They used to have 1.00 beer which was great. But that's over now. Service was good, staff were all very friendly. Price wise, it's worth it. You're going to spend that on 3 rolls anyways why not enjoy AYCE... read more

My go to AYCE sushi spot in the valley. The quality of the fish is amazing for the price. Their yellowtail, salmon and seared shrimp nigiri is to die for. It just melts in your mouth. And I also recommend the jalapeño shrimp! Service is quick and everyone is friendly. There's typically a wait around dinner time that ranges from 20-60 min and I think it's worth the wait. The place is always clean. They have sports on and play good music. Personally I didn't really care for the premium, I did it once and I don't think I'd do it again. read more

Another outstanding all you cat eat sushi spot! Can definitely get packed even during weekday lunch times but definitely worth it. Service is always super quick, sushi is so fresh and prepared in smaller servings so you can try so much more food. Some of our favorites include all of the tamas, popcorn scallops, seaweed salad, garlic chili edamame, tempura, and of course the albacore, yellowtail and salmon sushi. Only critique I have is the salmon/tuna crispy rice is not very crispy- soggy both times we ordered. Otherwise, always a great meal at Aikan and will definitely be back for more! read more

My son was craving sushi so I took him here for lunch. I chose this place because, of all the sushi places that I've tried here in the valley, this is the best of all! We came on a week day and requested for a booth. They said it would take half an hour, but we only waited about 10 mins. As soon as we were seated, our host took our drinks order then our tallied order. Appetizer came really quick followed by the main one after the other. Everything was so delicious! All you can eat is really hard to gauge, but we managed. Towards the end, I almost ordered a sushi roll which I realized I cannot finish anymore. We were so stuffed, but really satisfied! The place was clean and orderly, but the music didn't seem to match. Oh well, it's okay as long as we enjoyed our lunch!!! read more

Aikan Sushi - Salmon Crunch Roll (6-8 Pcs) California roll Rose Crunch Roll (6-8 Pcs) - Izakaya Near Me - Northridge, California

I've tried a lot of sushi buffets over the years, and Aikan Sushi is definitely the cream of the crop. There's a reason why there is always a long wait for this place. The ordering is a bit weird if it's your first time. You get a sheet to mark which items you want, and you only get 3 rounds of ordering. If you're opting for the Premium dinner, make sure to max out your 1-per-person items on the 1st round, because they charge for the next round per item, even if you didn't order the max for the table. MOST MEMORABLE ITEMS: Black Pork Sausage 5/5* Plump little babies that snapped when you bite into them. The skin has crispy bits of texture from being blistered, and inside was juicy with good flavor. It was a nice break from all the fish. Yellowtail Sashimi 5/5* Sliced with enough thickness, these translucent morsels with a streak of pale pink were almost too pretty to eat. Fish tasted fresh and simple, without much masking the ocean flavor. Truffle Halibut (premium) 5/5* Just barely a hint of truffle oil, but enough to elevate this halibut sashimi. Ama Ebi, Fried Soft Shelled Crab, Fried Oysters 5/5* They have a fry master back there in the kitchen! Fried items came out so piping hot, tasted clean, and had that delicate crisp you'd get from a perfect tempura fry. The ebi head was so crispy, you didn't have to worry about being stabbed by the pointy parts. Soft shelled crab and oysters were meaty, plump and juicy. Seared Tuna 5/5* I was enjoying the seared salmon until the seared Tuna came out. Whoa, this was way better! With the skin on, there was a smokiness that left the seared salmon in the dust. Uni 3.5/5* Presentation was phenomenal, topped with a thin fried lotus root chip and flower decor. The uni itself was a rich orangey color, but the taste wasn't as sweet as I hoped. Although the uni texture was spot on, soft but with that fresh firmness, there was a touch of zinc flavor that I didn't enjoy so much. Salmon Kama 5/5* I usually prefer salmon over yellowtail kamas because they are fattier and not as dry. Kamas are always good, but this one was noticeably better because they actually glaze the top with some flavor and grill it enough to have extra crispy skin and smokiness. ITEMS TO PASS ON: Jalapeño Popper 2/5* This didn't have the any spice to it at all. Drenched in sauce and huge, this is an easy pass. They also give you a huge portion, so order wisely. Karaage 3/5* Not the juiciest chicken nor the best fry. It was crispy, but not a delicate layer and some pieces were too dry. Careful how many orders you put in because the portion came out huge. Beef Teriyaki 1/5* Super dry and inedible. Overall, Aikan is a bang for your buck considering the quality of ingredients, variety of the menu, and freshly made to order dishes. Service was great and they came to check on us quite often. Everything was visually appealing, with the utmost care and attention to detail on plating. The fish tasted fresh and fried items were finger-burning hot, straight from the fryer. I actually left feeling satisfied and not overwhelming heavy like most AYCE. read more

Unparalleled experience at Aikan today for AYCE lunch, that's now on special till the end of August for $27.99. The sashimi and sushi were so fresh and tasty, that they rivaled non-ayce, solid omakase sushi spots in the city. Each piece of nigiri just melted in my mouth, with exceptional flavor, freshness and zero chewiness. Aikan chefs also give you minimal rice in the sushi, so you're actually tasting more fish and less rice. The standouts today were the seared albacore, seared tuna, seared salmon and seared yellowtail. They were served warm, with some pepper and chili oil on top. Truly phenomenal! The place itself is clean, pretty large and with contemporary design. The customer service was superb, with a lot of staff ready to stop and help with the order. All in all, an amazing experience at a great price! Will definitely be back! read more
