    Sushi choices
    Brian B.

    TL;DR - It's a buffet. Solid food choices at a decent price. Okay service Food - 4/5 Service - 3.5/5 Price - 4/5 We went when it was a typically busy and had a little bit of a wait. When we were seated, we were brought back to a room that was kinda off to the side. That was both a bit nice since it was away from others but also kinda eh since it seemed like we were kinda forgotten. The food choices were pretty solid, and everything seemed to be replaced pretty quickly when it was getting low. The biggest criticism I had was that our waters and plates weren't cleared as fast as we needed. On the other hand, it was nice not to feel rushed to try and finish our food and leave.

    One of the best Buffets in Sacramento, I love the Mongolian station you can create whatever you want I love the thin noodles with jalapeños and the Hawaiian steak is so good. Food so good: Hawaiian steak Honey walnut shrimp Spring rolls Bread Broccoli & beef Food I don't really care for: Steak (don't seem seasoned) Blue crab (hard to get the meat out) Sushi (I just don't like any sushi) Orange chicken This place is a must try, the only thing I will say about this place that you have to watch is the customer service, they gave us the bill and fortune cookies and we only had been there a hour it was like they were rushing us to leave that's what made me not leave a tip

    Went for lunch with my grandson , total cost was $38. food was good, service was good, lots of entrees to choose from. We enjoyed it but grandson liked Black Bear Diner better

    I've been here many times over the years. With family, friends, my partner, & even alone. It's mainly popular bc it's hibachi bar specifically is good and they offer crawdads. The sushi is typically pretty unexciting compared to other places & most of the buffet is hit or miss with more misses than hits. Overall nothing mind blowing but a fine community spot to meet up for a consistently average experience. So imagine my shock to be scrolling online and see a video of employees nonchalantly strolling around while a scared cat that fell through the ceiling is loose in the dining room for a prolonged period of time? WORSE the cat is shoved into a plastic garbage bag in front of a dining room full of families! That's not how you treat animals! Horrifying actually.

    Being from the Bay Area, $16.99 for AYCE weekday lunch is such a steal! It's even better that they have lots of variety to choose from and are all constantly coming out fresh. You pay at the front before they usher you to your table. Since it was a weekday, it was not too crowded so they didn't seem to be super strict about the 90 min dine-in policy which I appreciate! Staff was consistently coming around to clear the plates and food stations. I enjoyed the create your own Mongolian bbq with topping and add ons of your choice Parking was pretty easy in their big lot. Overall, loved the variety and value!

    Dessert, I'd recommend the strawberries, cream puff, orange sherbet and popcorn!

    All-you-can-eat buffet!! I've heard so many great things about this place! Hubby treated us Thursday evening! Great prices, decent food and staff here! They have a lot of rooms for big groups too! Would return to try more! 4/5 star experience! SYOY! :-)

    Sushi and Mongolian bbq

    Have not been to a Chinese buffet in a while cause I've been trying to diet and be healthier. However the temptation of sushi/sashimi and Mongolian bbq was too much to resist. The quality of the food was good considering how busy it was! I beelined for the Mongolian bbq area and probably had to wait 5-10 minutes for it to cooked. I loved that they had the LA galbi ribs for meat options! It was good! Also had the chicken which was juicy. The sushi rolls were good! I didnt know what kind of roll I was eating but it tasted fresh. Later on I got to try their fresh sashimi slices of tuna and salmon which were very good! I came Sunday afternoon and it was super busy but we got seated right away! I was seated in the room to the right and it was kind of warm in that area. Most likely because of how many people were there!

    Nice decor

    We've been coming here a few times and the food is always good. The noise seems to have gotten louder and more busier than normal. The waiter is fast to picking up plates and refilling drinks. And cooks are quick to refill empty trays of food. No rush there is plenty food for everyone!

    I needed to find a place to take my crew to dinner after a long day of field work. I've found finding a place that will please 5 different people including me, Chinese buffets work out well. Everybody gets to find something that they'll like, from Chinese American food, to sushi and even ribs and French fries and pizza. Yeah, for some reason every Chinese buffet has pizza! This Hibachi Buffet is located on Sunrise about halfway between the 50 and the 80. If you're coming from the north just turn into the parking lot. But if you're coming from the south, there's no easy way to turn into the lot, so you gotta make a U-Turn at Kingswood Drive and go back to the lot. This Hibachi Buffet is huge, there a big lot and a ton of people. The inside seems super busy, but not too dirty or anything. Service is typical Chinese buffet, efficient but not there to make any friends. The food is quite the spread. The sushi section had a ton of stuff, and not just rolls, but different nigiri pieces as well. The Chinese food was typical buffet stuff, chow mien, egg rolls, some veggies and some really good wings. The quality was a little better than a lot of buffets. The food is refreshed fast so there's not empty trays. The price for dinners was around $25, plus some tax and a little tip figure about $30 per person. As long as my crew is happy, I'm happy. I would have given 5 stars if that offered roast duck, but no duck today.

    No, not just seafoods. Lots of other choices, such as stir fries, sushi, American (pizza, fries, ribs), soups, pot stickers, salad, etc. Also Habachi in which you choose what you want to be cooked in front of you (i.e. meats and vegetables).

    Is everything fried in the same oil? One of our party has a strong allergy to shrimp and he'd have a reaction if he ate fries cooked in the oil they use to cook shrimp.

    I wouldn't trust it...lots of fried food. Many of it soggy.

    Do they serve raw oysters nightly?

    No they do not. Perhaps during a special holiday. I'd call and find out when if they do.

    Do they serve alcoholic beverages?

    They do sell alcohol. When you enter they have a fridge on the side for purchase, for each additional alcohol beverage you have to purchase at the front desk

    We're planning to come on a weekday for lunch. What are some items we don't get for lunch compared to dinner? For example, is there sashimi during lunch? Thanks!

    I haven't found any huge difference so far. I have been four times Friday lunch, Sat Dinner, Monday dinner, and a Wednesday lunch.… 

    I have seen some people do takeout, anyone know how much takeout costs? Thanks

    It depends on what you are getting. They weigh the take-out by pound. It ranges from $7.99 - $9.99 per pound.

    Yes, they also have a room for private groups

    We were craving some Japanese food and found this place with decent reviews. We came on a Saturday…read morearound lunch and it wasn't busy. The exterior is very unsuspecting. I would have never thought a Japanese restaurant was here. The inside was another story! The inside is decorated with all kinds of Japanese pictures and decor. You definitely felt like you were in a Japanese restaurant. The menu was impressive! Everything had pictures which is so amazing! It was just easier having an idea of what to pick based on looking at the pictures. There were all kinds of sushi rolls, bento boxes, noodles, appetizers and plates. We decided to get the ramen, salmon katsu, and tempura bowl. Food came our really quick. Portions were good and everything we tasted wonderful. It definitely satisfied our craving. The tempura was crispy. The ramen broth was rich and noodles nice and chewy. The bento box came with gyoza, salad, tempura, oranges, miso soup and rice. Service was great. They were attentive, and friendly. Eating with our littles ones is never easy and we appreciated how patient they were with us. We loved the food and hope to come back and try their sushi next!

This is exactly what I had experienced when I paid a visit to "Akira Sushi" Located directly on Greenback Lane and adjacent to Auburn Blvd in Citrus Heights, this place opened its doors for business back in mid-2024. Since then, they have seen a very respectable amount of positive reviews. As I had previously mentioned, the exterior isn't much to look at as this is a fairly dated strip mall that hasn't received any updates in decades. And to those that remember, this is the same building that "Pho 54" occupied from 2013-2023. During my visit which was the afternoon of Sunday 8/3/2025 at around 5:15pm, I parked directly outside as there were no other cars here. Upon entry, there was one other customer finishing dinner. After being greeted and seated, I was given a menu complete with a cold glass of iced water. I will say that the interior of this place is quite impressive, cozy, and inviting. The distressed wooden tables paired up with the tan-colored walls and unique murals add an upscale look to the overall interior. On a packed evening, this place can comfortably seat around 50 guests. I will say that their menu is fully loaded with pure deliciousness. They offer a huge variety of traditional sushi rolls, custom rolls, Bento boxes, seafood tacos (available in tuna or salmon), Poke bowls, and even ramen for the colder days/evenings. And even a nice variety of beverages including soda, beer, wine, and sake. Since I was dining solo, I decided on the "Sunomomo Salad" which was a cucumber salad w/Ponzu sauce and Bonito flakes. My main dish was their "Napa Valley" roll which uses shrimp tempura, cucumbers, avocado, spicy aioli, unagi sauce, and topped with sesame seeds. My salad was brought out in less than 3 minutes while my sushi arrived just a few minutes later. I will say that everything was very fresh and delicious. The avocado had perfect consistency while the shrimp was made to perfection. In my humble opinion, this was an absolute gem of a roll. All in all, "Akira Sushi" is about as good as it gets for quality sushi in Citrus Heights. They have very respectable hours of operation being open 6 days a week; Tuesday through Sunday from 11:30am-2:30pm / 4:00-8:30pm with extended hours on Fri/Sat while being closed for business on Monday. Service was great as the young lady that waited on me was polite, courteous, and respectful. With a great atmosphere, delicious food, and reasonable prices, I am giving Akira Sushi a unanimous five-star rating.

Sushi Star is in a little strip mall behind a Walgreens and located a few doors down from Corner Pocket, which is likely why they stay open to 10pm on weekends. A section of the menu is labeled "Vegetarian Rolls" but most of them are actually vegan. There's also a few veggie appetizer standards: edamame, seaweed salad, sunomono. They also have inari. The seaweed salad was an actual salad... it came served on a bed of spring greens. I liked it. We also tried the AAC (avocado, asparagus, cucumber) and Veggie Rolls. Both were good, but the Veggie Roll was modified to what was actually listed on the menu. It was still tasty though. I liked how the veggie rolls come sauceless by default so I don't have to ask for them to be removed to keep it vegan. Basic = easy. Service was average here, so all in all I would come back when I'm looking for another quick bite of vegan sushi and don't feel like making it myself.

We came in on a Tuesday night and there was still a crowd, but we were seated within about 15 minutes. It was quite lively with a few larger groups were we were seated, but you could still talk amongst your group and be heard. As for the food, it is still some of the best fish I've tasted. The prices have definitely gone up in the 10ish years I've been coming, so it's probably more a rare treat than an occasional visit. Everything was super fresh and came out quick enough. The serving size for some of the dishes have diminished, for example, the Musolino Pasta. Considering the base is upon noodles, I'm surprised they're putting less into that rather than their fish. The sushi rolls and sashimi dishes we picked still had a lot of fish pieces and very very fresh. Just that one big ding on a non-sushi based dish and of course the prices. Aside from that, I still love coming here and the Fair Oaks location is still near and dear to my heart.
