I opt-ed for the premium option during lunch and I was happy with the options. My only two complaints were the wagyu and the kan salmon. The wagyu looks nothing like the photo and the kan salmon wasn't yummy. Everything else was amazing!! I loved the scallop and the dressing. The salmon to the moon and back I ordered twice. The portion sizes are good, not too small or big. I think this is one of the better AYCE spots in Austin.

I've been in twice now, and while I can see the potential -- both of my visits had clear issues, and it's hard to justify trying it further given the higher price point. They aren't very knowledgeable or trained with handling allergens, even though they say they accommodate them. I then had pacing issues, where it took a very long time for any sashimi to come out, but then almost too many orders showing up. It made it difficult to order the right amount, with how out of order and inconsistently paced the orders were. I also had a couple other issues like salmon coming out ice cold, and then the correction being dry and overdone. Many of the items I got were actually very good quality and beautiful, though. I still see the potential, if they could get their consistency down and their allergen knowledge up to speed.

Kan Sushi is an AYCE sushi and KBBQ. You don't cook the meat at your table instead you fill out a menu with the items you are wanting. They will bring everything out to you. Our favorites were the nigiri's and sushi rolls. The appetizers were delicious and unique as well. The noodle dishes were good but not as good as the sushi. We didn't get much of the KBBQ meat but what we did order was delicious! The service was great, very attentive and friendly. Would definitely go back!

This place is a cute all you eat sushi! It's order by the menu and the menu is truly extensive! I enjoyed their salmon Nigiri and galbi ribs! Please load up on that. The rest were good but depending on the rolls it was a hit or a miss for me. I didn't really enjoy the udon but I don't like sweet sauces. The service was prompt and the atmosphere is good. I would say this is good for big groups and chill dates, this isn't a fancy date place in my opinion. If I wanted unlimited nigiri I'll definitely be back!

Meh. I'll start by saying the rolly polly roll was delicious. We ordered like 8 of them. Except when one came out with cream cheese instead of crab on accident, I almost vomited. I hate cream cheese. The rest of the fish was just not good. It was nice the rice to fish ratio much more fish but it would have been nice if the fish tasted better. The portions were also very small. Dessert and drinks are not included in AYCE, drinks were expensive $15+. Maybe I'll try this place again the longer it's around. Probably not!

Food was very mild. Menu was limited compared to other AYCE sushi locations in Austin.

Kan Sushi has become my favorite AYCE (All-You-Can-Eat) sushi place in town! I used to go to Machi Sushi (located in southern Austin), but after this place opened and trying it a couple of times now, I personally think the seafood is more fresh here! I particularly like the fact that the sashimi slices are surprisingly thick and the rice to seafood ratio on the nigiri items is incredible (i.e. more protein than rice). Although you have to pay an additional $20 for the premium menu (which comes with the carpaccio sushi, sashimi, premium rolls and appetizers, and even Korean BBQ dishes), I think it's definitely worth the extra cost! I understand that there have been mixed reviews about the service and accuracy but thankfully, the waiters have been very attentive both times that I've been there. If you're a bit hesitant because of the mixed reviews, then I recommend coming for lunch (the prices are cheaper) so that you can feel out the place without committing to a higher price tag! Some of my favorite dishes here include: Truffle Salmon (Nigiri), Yellowtail and Tuna Carpaccio, Salmon Sashimi, Hamachi Kama (Appetizer), Salmon Kama (Appetizer), Calamari (Fried Squid), Galbi, and the Beef Bulgogi!

$28 lunch weekday pricing-- their nigiris and rolls are decent for the price; better than junai-- quick and attentive service and large space. The fish isn't the top quality but decent for sushi buffet and the rice to fish ratio is really incredible!

Just don't. This place is overpriced, badly run, and a hygiene risk. I'm warning you: skip Kan Sushi. The service is chaotic, the food handling is questionable, and for what they charge, it's honestly kind of insulting ($38 dinner price +$20 premium price. Otherwise no sashimi). 1. First round took 90 mins -- and felt rigged We ordered a full first round, but only got part of it. After finishing what they brought, our server asked if we "still wanted the rest" (which was part of the original order). Only then did the kitchen start making the rest. Sushi came first, sashimi at the very end -- felt like they were trying to fill us up early. 2. Sashimi requires "manager approval"? Over an hour in, we asked about our sashimi and got told they needed manager approval to serve it. It's all-you-can-eat -- why is that even a thing? 3. They tried to take back food we already touched Dishes kept getting mixed up. At one point, they dropped off sashimi, someone at our table started eating it, then the server came back and tried to take it back to another table. That's just nasty. 4. Found plastic in our sushi -- and they didn't care We literally found a piece of plastic wrap inside a roll. Showed it to the manager -- he brushed it off, then blamed a "trainee." No apology, no ownership, just took one person off the bill like that made it okay. Eating plastic in raw fish is not a small thing. 5. Whole service vibe = chaos Nobody seemed to know what they were doing. Communication was awful. And for the price? Definitely not worth it.

Austin doesn't have a lot of AYCE sushi spots, but this one would definitely be considered one of the better ones. Decent quality (as good as AYCE sushi can get), large menu, but pricy for what it is - even as AYCE. For dinner, it's $38.95/person - and that's without the +$20/person add on for "premium" menu items. Lunch is about $10 cheaper and if I ever revisited I'd probably stick to the lunch price, as I don't think the dinner price is worth it for me. The most value for your money is obviously in the sushi, but the hot apps and other menu items were pretty good. Service can vary. Since we arrived before the dinner rush (and dined on a weeknight), our food came out pretty quickly. Their paper system isn't the best, but it's not terrible as long as your server is attentive. Toward the end as it got busier, the wait time for food grew longer. Overall, I thought the sushi rolls were good and the nigiri just okay. For the price point I'd rather dine at a higher quality sushi spot and just pay for better fish bites, but I don't think it's that bad if you know what you're in for and just want the AYCE experience.

Newer AYCE sushi spot in Austin that plankton is the best in town. I liked it better than bang bang or Junai. Lots of seating inside, and you can choose between regular price or premium which adds $20 per person but gives you a larger selection to choose from. Honestly I think just the regular Definitely no need to over order as you have 90 minutes, but I will say the nigiri pieces are on the smaller side. Our favorites were the salmon and pepper salmon nigiri, the udon pasta, and the shrimp nigiri. Definitely worth trying out if you're into AYCE sushi.

Good service, very friendly young woman at the host, really pleasant experience. Busy but still managed to secure a comfortable booth to myself. delicious food, and I did do the all you can eat with the special it was really good. The drink was really fresh as well.

We tried Kan Sushi last night after seeing some of y'all's reviews, and we were pleasantly surprised. Pricing: * Regular Lunch: $28.95 | Regular Dinner: $38.95 * Premium Upgrade: +$20 per person * A La Carte: Uni ($11.95 for 2 pcs), A5 Wagyu Nigiri ($13.95 for 2 pcs), A5 Wagyu Grill ($35.95), and desserts Since we're not big AYCE sushi people, we opted for premium and compared a few regular menu items. The difference was clear--premium actually tastes like normal sushi, not the usual dry, gummy buffet-style fish. The sushi keeps coming, so I'd recommend eating as you go to enjoy it fresh. What we had: * Fatty Cuts: Snowflake Salmon, Truffle Salmon, Short Rib, Ikura * Leaner Cuts: Carpaccio, which had a cleaner taste * Soft Shell Crab: Fresh, not canned, and generously portioned * Takoyaki: Flavorful with real squid pieces * Udon Pasta: No idea what was in it, but it tasted amazing--almost like pizza sauce * Inari Unagi (Eel Tofu Pockets): Obsessed with these! Sweet, savory, and just incredibly delicious * Prime Cut Nigiri (Regular Menu): The only thing we didn't like--tough meat and overpowered by teriyaki sauce The pieces were small because they didn't overload the rice like most AYCE spots. In most cases, there was more fish than rice, which is respectable--you can just order more. A5 Wagyu Grill ($34.95) The A5 Wagyu was buttery and rich but a bit tricky to cook. You need to balance not overcooking it while ensuring the fat renders properly. We first grilled one cube at a time but quickly realized it's best to cook them all at once before the flame dies down. Dessert - Great Texture & Fresh The Hōkkien (Hokkein) Mochi with Matcha Ice Cream was a standout. The mochi had an amazing crunchy-chewy texture, perfectly sweet without being overpowering, while the ice cream was smooth, creamy, and not bitter at all--a perfect way to end the meal. Service - Excellent because Corp Service was top-notch, likely due to the corporate crowd. Our waiter was a lead trainer, and even the managers and president stopped by tables. They were so attentive that if they saw me even thinking about taking a photo, they scattered and welcomed me to do so. It's like the opposite of paparazzi for them! Final Verdict - With premium and a la carte upgrades, the price adds up. I didn't like the regular dishes we ordered. So it comes down to relatively whether you want to have tons of variety or not. If you're looking for the best AYCE sushi experience right now, I think this is it imo.
