Sushi selection was actually pretty good. They have sashimi, which was always good. The rolls slightly have too much rice but the main ingredients like the fish have pretty good amount as well. Service was really good and friendly. Place is very nice, good parking, good ambiance and they seem to have very good regulars which is always a good indicator that they take good care of their customers. Overall, I like it and I will be back next time I am in the area! read more

Sushi was great, but tell me why I got chased out of the restaurant for "tipping too low". Service was fine, but why am I tipping the lowest suggested amount at 20% on and AYCE when she came to the table ONE time. read more

Food was delicious, service was very good and ambience was very good. I would definitely recommend.

I think the reviews are a bit harsh. I just wanted to start by saying that the restaurant atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I think the place actually looks pretty cool on the inside. But the main concern I think that a lot of people here can agree with is the quality of the fish. Tastes older, not as fresh, but not so bad that you put down the chop sticks. Basically if this was a test grade it would get a C+. I think it's only worth it to eat there if you ONLY do the "All you can eat menu" The fish quality is average at best and the price you would pay for normal dishes ISN'T worth it. That being said if you're like me and you can eat about 100 $ worth of fish I think the place is pretty Great! Ice cream is pretty fire as well. Have went multiple times, they just need to up the quality of the fish a bit more. The staff were super kind as well. read more

Hoshi Sushi is one of my favorite places to get all you can eat sushi in Long Island. It's definitely worth the long drive to stone brook because for $31.99, you get all you can eat sushi with a HUGEE variety of selections that include my favorites: salmon, tuna, squid, ikura, tobiko, surf clam, and my favorite: seared salmon!!! Finding a place with all you can eat seared salmon is a dream because it is absolutely delectable. The fish is so fresh and they are pretty generous with the portions. I always get the hot tea to pair well with my sushi. The service is very prompt and fast so you never have to wait too long for the food. The hot food bar is also pretty decent with their fried calamari and beef teriyaki, which tastes great. The only problem I have is that I wish the ice cream was all you can eat too, because their green tea ice cream is soo good and the servers never let us get more than one scoop per person. read more

I love this place. I've been going to it for at least 15+ years. My parents and I ate there regularly. The sushi is good clean fresh fish at a very reasonable price. It is now has many more students than ever before, but the food remains good quality. The service is good and I have never had anything that was disappointing. I go here at about once a month since I moved back to the area. Thought my folks are gone now I keep hoping the will come through the door and join me for dinner. read more

That last review makes no sense. The guy said he was here 25+ years ago. The owner said it has only been around for 20 years. The AYCE menu has been the same for years, with the same sheets of paper. The only thing that changed over time was the price. The place has good food for the price. The sake I got was from a sealed bottle. How is it watered down? I went here with my 2-year-old. Family friendly. read more

My 1st sushi experience 25yrs ago-wow has it changed-and not for the better :( Place has gone downhill! 5:30pm and the place was empty Every other AYCE is usually the full menu. This place had 2 small papers with select options. Nothing that was supposed to be hot was hot & appeared to just throw stuff on the plate carelessly. Sake was definitely watered down Just keep an a la carte menu and be done with it. So disappointed in hoshi. Too many other options that serve delicious food and are happy to have you. read more

I didn't know Hoshi Sushi was all you can eat. Now I know what AYCE means. They were super packed but we didn't have to wait long since it was just the two of us. We don't really care for all you can eat so we ordered from the regular menu. The sushi sashimi combo came with a soup and salad. The edamame was served cold, I'm not used to that. I wish the tuna was better, it was a little too stringy for my liking. read more

Hoshi Sushi in Stony Brook is always a delight. The fish is fresh, the rolls are creative, and the service is warm and attentive. Every visit feels consistently delicious. My only tiny wish is for lunch discount specials, but even without them, it's an easy five stars!! read more

The place looked amazing. The waiters were nice and it gave off a Japanese sushi vibe just like if you were actually in Japan. The food was good and super good service as well. This place never disappoints read more

3 of us went for lunch today and arrived shortly before 2 p.m. Thankfully, I looked online ahead of time, as our original plan was to go for 3 p.m., and they would have been closed (different than what we have at some of our spots in MA and CT with them open throughout). The place has two distinct dining areas, one with regular tables and chairs, and the other one with long benches in what looked like mini rooms (at first, I thought it was for KBBQ). We were seated immediately. As a fair warning, the tables are relatively close together, so it was a bit of a tight squeeze. Make sure you like the people you're dining with. Ha ha! The lighting was dim with one large window streaming in, letting some light through, even with how foggy it was outside. We opted for the AYCE option. $28.99 per adult ($14.99 for children) for Tuesday - Thursday all day. Again, a slight difference from most of the AYCE places in MA and CT, where lunch is one price and supper another. We had the pick of food from 2 menus: one for kitchen items, including dessert, and the other for sushi items. We ordered a good mix of appetizers, soups, salads, sashimi, and specialty rolls on the first round (picture of the menu with our order). (Since I'm only allowed 140 characters for the caption...) On the large plate, from Top to Bottom and Left to Right, we had Volcano Roll, Special White Tuna Sashimi, Yankee Roll, Mackerel Sashimi, Seared Salmon Sashimi, Salmon Sashimi, Salmon Avocado Roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, Double Dragon Roll, Rainbow Roll, and Phoenix Roll. For the 2nd round, we opted for only a couple of specialty rolls (Diamond Roll and Captain Roll) more of the seared salmon sashimi, another salmon mango salad, and another beef negimaki appetizer. For dessert, we ordered ice cream and one fried banana. Each person is allowed 2 scoops of ice cream. The fried banana is cut into slices and served with chocolate syrup and whipped cream on top (I missed a pic for this). All of the food was fresh (my partner actually has now rated this higher than our favorite AYCE spots back home), tasty, and had a gorgeous presentation. I read one review complaining about the rolls having too much rice. I disagree. The fish/filling-to-rice ratio was spot on. My only comment would be a request to have more sauce for the Agedashi tofu appetizer. Our servers were incredibly attentive, refilling drinks, delivering the food, removing empty platters, and checking on us throughout the meal. Not only do we plan on returning in the near future but also bringing my preteen, who loves sushi, too. read more

OK spot for AYCE sushi out in Long Island. Came here with family friends to have a late lunch. We made reservations, so were seated right away. It wasn't necessary though since the place wasn't really packed. For the price, the quality of the food was alright. The rolls were good, but felt like there was a lot of rice. The sashimi and sushi were fresh. The appetizers were good as well. The servers were nice and helpful, but the way they served everything was a little annoying. The appetizers came out quick in separate dishes, but everything else took forever. I was getting so impatient because everyone was so hungry. Turns out, they literally put your entire order onto one giant plate and then bring it out. Some people may like it and maybe the restaurant was just trying to save washing dishes, but I personally preferred if they brought each dish out as they were done being made. Why keep it sitting out when it's ready to be enjoyed? Overall, Hoshi Sushi is a decent spot to go to, but I wouldn't say that it is my favorite. read more

Good rolls. They tasted good and we ordered a wide variety. Miss soup was good. Avocado salad was iceberg lettuce, a tomato and Avocado, basic but decent. Firecracker shrimp was okay. They cut the shrimp small so you really get fried tempura with a sauce, the shrimp is barely there. The fried banana was okay, nothing extraordinary. Mera's Tip: enjoy the rolls read more

The food is kinda hit and miss. When good they are great. But when bad they forget items you order. Or take so long to get things out. Food so far always tastes good. And fresh. But sad when you dont get what you order All you can eat is a little expensive for that. Restaurant is nice. And staff is nice read more

Great price for all you can eat with plenty of options! They also have plenty of non-sushi meals from the kitchen on the all you can eat menu, not just appetizers like some other AYCE places around. The servers were on top of taking empty plates, refilling water, & taking our menu selections quickly. Seating is available at the sushi bar, regular tables and chairs, or wooden booths in the back. I am giving 4 stars because the sushi is good, but not the best you will find on Long Island. I had the Haru Maki and Miso Soup to start, both were good... the soup could use more toppings but I enjoyed the broth. My friend had a Kani Salad & some Tempura Sweet Potato, she loved both of them. We ordered 2 rolls each to share. I ordered the Fried Island Roll & the Mango Hawaii Roll, my friend had the Yankee Roll & Captain Roll. I liked all of them except for the Yankee, but I don't like cream cheese in sushi. We got a 2nd round which was another Mango Hawaii, Sex on the Beach, and Phoenix, all of which i loved. My favorite for the night was the Sex on the Beach roll. The fish was fresh, my friend who usually orders vegetable or California rolls actually enjoyed the raw salmon & tuna! The only disappointment for me was that they ran out of green tea ice cream becore we had a chance to order desert, but i was so full I didn't really need it. My friend almost didn't want to go because we could not find the AYCE menu online, so I took pictures so others don't have the same problem. read more

Hoshi Sushi - AYCE Sushi Menu - Sushi Bars Near Me - Stony Brook, New York

The best all you can eat sushi in Suffolk County! From the minute we walked in to the minute we left, we were left impressed by our dining experience. Look no further for great sushi in an excellent ambient environment. Food 5/5: AYCE is $25 per person. It is totally worth it especially if you have an appetite. We tried as many things as could and can guarantee there is something for everyone at this location. The options expand past sushi and can also include noodles, fried tofu, and dumplings. I would even recommend it for vegetarians as there are plenty of rolls that do not contain fish. Service 4/5: very attentive staff who made sure we had a great dining experience. My only qualm with the service was that we noticed our table felt sticky, so we got the feeling that it wasn't cleaned properly beforehand. There was zero wait time for a table, however we also came on a Wednesday night, so I can imagine it's much busier on the weekends. Ambience 5/5: loved eating here. It felt really authentic especially with the tables that make you feel like you're low to the ground. Definitely coming back for more AYCE Parking is plentiful read more

The step in tables in the back were funky as hell but I was into it. The menu comes with a warning: Any wasted food will be charged, which I found to be odd, because let's be honest, that's what we Americans do. All you can eat for $30 well worth it. Everything we ordered was very good. Place was busy and the wait staff was attentive. read more

Service: Good. They were attentive and polite. It was not very busy when I went in, so it wasn't too bad from my prospective. They offer an ACYE menu or you can go a la carte. Food: I've had better. There was too much rice on the sushi, no flavor to the shrimp tempura, and not a good biting portion for the sashimi. I would suggest going to Bethpage for AYCE sushi (Masa) read more

Got the AYCE at Hoshi Sushi a couple of times now and it's decent. At least for the price, nowadays can't find that. The ambiance was really nice, especially the seating in the back. It's booth seating but on a lower wooden platform as in the picture, would definitely recommend sitting there. However, as for my personal experience my last visit the service was unsatisfactory, and has been better in the past. Although there were 2 other groups of people in the back, the waiter did not come to the back despite trying to call them over. So for drink refills or to order more there wasn't much of a chance until the very end when they ended up coming. So just know that might be the case with you. Overall would still recommend Hoshi Sushi. read more

Is AYCE sushi place. So far, most of the AYCE sushi place I been to, they only serve sushi. This place is different, they not only just serve sushi, they serve sashimi in different variety as well. Everything from the kitchen (appetizers) to the bar (Sashimi), everything is make to order, fresh and good. Salmon skin was hot and crispy very tasty. The teriyaki salmon, it was cooked perfectly, very moist. Only downside is I wish they would cut the sashimi little ticker, it will give better texture. Other than that, everything we order is very fresh and good. I would definitely come back again. read more

We had an early supper with AYCE. We sat at the booth with the sit in space. My kids love the experience. The quality of seafood is worth the price. Dinner was $31.99 plus tax. We had appetizers, the whole plate in the picture and round 2 plate of maki and finally the green tea ice cream. The waitress was very attentive even with the dinner crowd. The variety of rolls will be the missing star for the review. Everything spicy tastes just like spicy tuna. No difference whether you ordered spicy white salmon or spicy girl roll, they all tasted like spicy tuna roll. read more

Sushi is absolutely phenomenal for an all you can eat location. Quality of the fish is top notch and fresh. Kitchen food is also very good as well. Make sure you call before going since their hours are iffy with covid. Plan on being here for a little while as it takes some time for them to get your order ready. Still worth it though. read more

Decided to try this place on the whim and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The miso soup didn't have a traditional taste as I expected and I was pleasantly surprised. My only critique is that I would increase the size of the tofu pieces as they were incredibly small and challenging to enjoy because they'd practically melt by the time I chomped on them. Some scallion also would've enhanced the flavor. The pork gyoza though!!! Great flavor, texture, and smell. Lastly, the sauce on the side was a perfect match for the gyoza. read more

Just ordered here. I work at stonybrook hospital and had it delivered. They forgot the soy sauce... fine, it happens, but then I bit into the most fishy tasting sushi of my life and spit it out. $25 in the garbage. I'm not the type to complain so I don't call them, but this was bad enough for a review. Thank god I'm already in a hospital, it' saves me a step. read more

Nothing will ever express the love I have for this place. Used to go once a week back when I attended university and their fish is nothing short of quality. The low stars will always be for service as they can be a bit blunt with a Chinese restaurant resemblance. If you want to order, order large for the first round because it can take some time. If you sit at the bar you can watch the chefs work and it comes out quicker. The rice ratio is small for the nigiri and their rolls are jammed packed with fish, even the take out menu will fill you up. Hope this place never changes as I fly back once a year to taste the nostalgia. read more

This is your basic all you can eat sushi restaurant. We come here about once and month and the food is always very good however 7/10 times they will "forget" to add something on and I think it is because they don't think we will be able to finish all the food we order lol. A pro is that there has never once been a wait. We always sit down right away. Con is that the service is bad. We waited once for about 30 minutes to get our food. There really is not much else to say. The food is good. Service is meh. We will continue to go back! For the price you cant beat it. It is defiantly worth a try if you have not been yet. read more

The environment was clean, elegant and peaceful. The food was amazing. We had the beef teriyaki which was sweet and tender, the sweetheart special sushi roll which was sweet, savory and spicy, Philly roll rich and savory. Fried ice cream was delicious and the dragon drink was for two but I drank it all because it was so good. I definitely recommend the restaurant. read more

Coin flip sushi buffet- a hit or miss, but definitely worth a try! Food: I've been going to this spot for four years now. Sometimes the fish just melts in your mouth and other times, you question the quality. Buffet includes sushi/sashimi and items from the kitchen such as soups, dishes and desserts. I recommend their miso soup and calamari from kitchen and yellowtail, spicy tuna sushi. Expect to pay around $50-60 for two, but buffet price differs based on the day of week and hour. Experience: service is moderate. If you eat buffet-style, you need to ask for more order papers as they expect you to finish everything first. The phone reception is poor, but there is WiFi you can connect to. Hot tea is $1.50 extra, so usually I just get water. Restaurant decor is nice, and the food is always beautifully presented. TLDR: good service, good food. Great for dates, good for group gatherings. Make sure you come on an empty stomach! read more

This is my third outing to Hoshi Sushi with my student staff and will certainly come back for a fourth time! The staff is accommodating for larger groups and just be advised that gratuity is included when going group-style. I generally indulge in sashimi, but this time I mixed it up with a couple of rolls to share with the team. I really enjoyed anything with eel and tempura rolls. As far as quality of the cuts of fish goes, I would say it varies from average to slightly above average, as this is reflected for mass consumption. The service was initially fast, but slowed down for some reason on our second round of food despite the lack of other patrons. There were only 2 other tables, which totaled 4 persons, up against our group of 5. Bathroom cleanliness was decent and maybe could use some more love, but I left feeling that my hands were sanitized before sitting down to eat. Left feeling preggers because one of the group members, who shall remain nameless... for now, ordered more than they can handle! Perhaps an error also occurred on the ordering end too, given that no one ordered/wanted vegetable udon (alas, we don't waste food so what remained was split amongst the group). read more

Just a great, small sushi spot with fresh fish, plenty of sake options, and a quality atmosphere.

This one star I give to this restaurant is because I have to give at least 1 star. The waiter in the restaurant, a male, is extremely bad and rude. They will give REQUIRED percentage of tips to the customer. They won't do this to all customers but they will do this depends. I went to this restaurant and want some dessert in the middle, the waiter said to us like we caused a lot of trouble, and he will threaten you if you give a low tips. I do not RECOMMEND this restaurant, and no one should go there since we have a lot of all you can eat restaurants are better than this one. At least you can eat with good moods in other place. read more

Went to this place for the first time for the all you can eat sushi. OH MY SO WORTH IT. I can't even begin to say enough good things. Let me begin by saying the tables are super cool, the table is almost in this pit and you sit around on pillows. The all you can eat sushi has endless options. They also have other appetizers that are so fresh and made to order. The food was so delicious. Literally cannot go wrong with any of the options. Service was great and very attentive. This place is such a hidden gem in the area and I would 100% go back. read more

They have horrible service. 2 servers during dinner time and a full house. The sushi comes out every hour after you hand in the paper so that's how they get you with the "buffet." They ran out of red clam, a classic staple during our meal there. Their service and food quality severely decreased since I started coming here 2 years ago. They really need to start valuing their customers. read more
