    Mango margarita
    Taylor S.

    We stayed at the Aiden hotel that just happens to be attached to this sushi restaurant so he had to stop by. We were able to get in right away on a Saturday evening, and there were lots of tables available. We decided not to have the all you can eat and we just ordered à la carte. But everything was great. We tried the shaggy dog roll, the Machi roll, and I got the chicken teriyaki bento box. Also they have some happy hour options and I got the mango margarita. It was good but not strong.

    Quaint "all-you-can-eat" or ala-cart sushi restaurant attached to the Aiden Austin hotel. Fun, Asian themed atmosphere with plenty of indoor seating. Large (6+) groups will likely need to be split into 2 tables. The service was very friendly and attentive. Since I wasn't supper hungry, I just had a Rainbow Roll. This was good and the ingredients were fresh, but the fish that top the roll were a little thin IMO. I thought prices were reasonable especially for "all-you-can-eat". I'd recommend.

    Spicy tuna hand roll
    Anita C.

    This place exceeded my expectations. First of all, it was an odd location and it's inside a hotel. I parked on the right side of the hotel door but park on the left side and you can either go through the hotel or the side door on the side. The quality of the sushi surprised me given its location. We got a bunch of sashimi, hamachi appetizer, skinny girl roll, Godzilla roll, and a spicy tuna roll. We got the hamachi 2x because it was so good. I thought the skinny girl roll was good until I tried the Godzilla roll. The Godzilla roll sounds weird but it ended up being one of our favorites. I highly recommend the Godzilla roll. Overall, I was impressed with this place. I would come back! It's a hidden gem.

    Who knew all you could eat sushi could be so good! We came in on a Friday night around 7:15pn and the wait was 25-30 min. By the time we were sat it jumped to 45-50! Yikes! This is placated next to the Aiden hotel and you can access via that. Parking was a bit far in the back of the hotel and very tight. Be cautious when driving. The decor was nice and simple very pretty with the pinks! The food was great. Everything came out extremely fast and at the same time. Our table was full of plates! Next time I'd order one or two things, then more later.

    This place is so amazing for the price and service! My colleauges and I have been coming to here for a year now. We were able to experience their one year anniversary when we came last year. I forgot to finish my review. Ambiance is relaxing and this would be a great place for a date with your significant other. For the price of the all you can eat sushi, and everything else you receiving a great value of a deal. You will definitely leave full here if you try everything. I recommend trying this place for your own experience.

    California roll with spicy mayo & Philly roll
    Claudia H.

    I went with my friends, there were 5 of us so we were able to choose either ayce or à la carte. I did à la carte and got the California roll with spicy mayo on top, as well as a Philly roll and both were so good! I also got the strawberry yogurt drink which was super yummy. Would like to come back and do ayce so I can try some more options, because the food my friends got looked so good as well. Will be coming back! Vibes & food for the price are so worth it

    My wife and I stopped here for a spontaneous date night while in Austin to pick up a friend's car. I'll be honest, I was a little skeptical walking in, but I was pleasantly surprised. The vibe inside is super lively and the music was actually good. We went all out on the food: Philly, Tokyo, Rainbow, and Skinny Girl rolls. Every single one was great, but the Shaggy Dog was honestly the best I've ever had. Big shout out to our server Ty. He's the goat fr. If you're craving sushi, this is the spot.

    I'm a regular here and it's always astounding how fast the service is! The ambiance is cool and has these fun drink robots but the service outshines them because it is always friendly and speedy. It's typical AYCE quality that's pretty decent and I come here to truly eat a lot (attached a picture of maybe 20% of what I ate)

    Bubble tea
    Yenah J.

    What makes Machi Sushi stand out from the other AYCE sushi restaurants in Austin? Is it the super cute decor inside? Or maybe the labubu claw machine? Haha those are just cute things I liked, but actually I think it's the level of service and food quality & variety. The workers were so kind and helpful. Everything came out FAST. I talked with a friend who went there before and he mentioned the same thing. I've been to some AYCE restaurants where they charge you or limit you on nigiri/sashimi. Here, it's included! The only thing you would have to pay extra is bubble tea or cocktails. I love the variety of the menu. Some things were better than others but that's just a personal preference. I believe it shares the same parking lot as a hotel with a giant transformer in front of it, but it's free parking.

    Machi Sushi is a sensory explosion - my senses were on overdrive when I walked in. First, sight - the restaurant had a ceiling full of cherry blossoms and red dragons up front. Second, sound was oozing out the restaurant has it was a massive number of folks dining at the restaurant. The part of the restaurant that connected to the Aiden Hotel had at a full seated area with folks also standing. You can also enter from the other side of the restaurant, which had no seats with everyone standing. I do not know what the seating capacity of the restaurant, however, it was at full capacity. My Yelp friends arrived earlier with a projected 25 minute wait. I arrived just when we were being seated. Third, the restaurant reeked of intoxicating smells...making you highly anticipate the meal. Fourth, I touched one of the many flags displayed through out the restaurants, which were hung like papel picado like in a Mexican restaurant but with no holes. Fifth, the taste of the food was quite good...more on that later. Machi Sushi is located on IH-35 South connecting to the Aiden Hotel. It is an all you can eat sushi buffet. Once we were seated we ordered our first set of sushi - for me the 1) Shaggy Dog roll and 2) Machi Crunchy roll...two of the most popular rolls. Of all the food I ate, the Shaggy Dog roll was my favorite. I also ordered spicey edamame...so tasty! My next roll was the cowboy roll along with the teriyaki shrimp and calamari. The shrimp was good but I did not like the calamari at all (to rubbery with lots of breading). We ended our meal with dessert. I ordered the tempura Oreo and green tea ice cream. I had no idea how the fried Oreo dessert was going to turn. It was good...think small puffed pastry where the Oreo inside is soft. The green tea ice cream was amazing...flavorful and smooth with subtle green tea taste...my favorite dish. In addition, I had a lemon drop martini, which was strong yet good. I decided to exit on the same side that friends entered on, where there were two massively large transforms...so super cool. The restaurant was great, but the true joy was visiting with my Yelp friends and getting to know them better. It was fun evening filled with laughter.

    Bumblebee is that you?!
    Alyssa Marie H.

    This place is a vibe! If you're a Transformers fan you'll love the Bumblebee out font, the eyes light up! Inside this restaurant is fully decorated in theme of a sushi place. I can see why the wait would be long. They had many roll options, but I went with the hibachi steak. The mushroom soup and vegetables were chef's kiss. The fried rice and steak were good, but not the best I've ever had. Honestly our waiter made our visit for me. He was kind, attentive, and made my night with chocolate ice cream!

    Shaggy Dog and Spider rolls
    Hong M.

    Neat sushi spot right off i35 attached to the Aiden hotel. Good amount of onsite parking. Cool Transformers figures greet you upon arrival. Inside decor was colorful yet comfortable. Wait staff were helpful, answering our multitude of questions about menu items. AYCE includes appetizers, sushi, hibachi and dessert. You can order as much as you want as many times as you want within the allotted 2 hours noted on the menu as long as you eat it all (we tapped out after about an hour). We enjoyed the mushroom soup, several cooked rolls, yaki udon with beef, sesame balls. The calamari and tempura bananas were okay. We paced ourselves, ordering a couple of items at a time. While the price was a bit higher than other AYCE sushi spots, the food quality, vast menu options and overall experience made the difference.

    Machi Sushi was located about 30 minutes away from our Airbnb in Manor. It was a bit out of the way, but most restaurants were out of the way given where we were staying. It is a pretty big space and had lots of parking. The big appeal for my boyfriend and I's visit was to do All You Can Eat. Since we were here on a Saturday, it was priced $35.95 per person. We were seated right away once we walked in. The table we were seated out was a little chilly. The air conditioning was on a little high. Our waitress was friendly and helpful with taking our orders. For $35.95 per person, the fish quality was not as good as we expected. It could have better, but some of the nigiris just didn't taste right to us. It didn't appear that fresh either. The rolls were a bit better. The ice creams tasted very similar to one another. The only flavor that was distinct was chocolate. The fried ice cream was horrible. It wasn't executed properly. The fried Oreos were suggested by our waitress and those were good at least. Personally, I wouldn't come again for the food here.

    There is not a separate menu for GF as far as I can remember, but possibly available upon request I'm not sure because we didn't ask. To answer the second part of your question, yes tons of GF choices and she should have no problem at all finding… Read more

    What is the price for Sunday lunch/dinner?

    They AYCE is the same price all day Saturday and Sunday @35$

    What is the price for kids?

    Lunch price - $10 (under 4), $15 (4-12) Dinner price - $13 (under 4), $25 (4-12)

    Do you have to get the all you can eat option?

    No you do not. We always get the all you can eat option, but I did ask about ordering a la carte and they pointed out several tables of people who were ordering just off the main menu and not ordering via the all you can eat option.

The intimate, speakeasy setting is such a vibe! Hidden behind a bookcase tucked away in Holey Moley, Chef Saine and his small team bring you an incredible 14-course experience with top-tier ingredients sourced directly from local farmers in Japan. With only 6 seats per session, this is a cozy experience and one I definitely could not recommend more. QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, located in East Austin, there is plenty of street parking. - Reservations can be tricky to land, but you can grab weeknight ones if you're flexible. - Pricing is about $170/person, with the option to add on drinks and extra bites (3 extra for $45/person). Tax and tip not included. My favorite bites were the maguro blue fin (an incredible start to the night!), the buttery Kanpachi amberjack, and the Wagyu ribeye with salted egg yolk (steak and eggs). Everything is stellar, and the Belgium chocolate ice cream finish with a little serenading from Chef is a great way to wrap up the experience. Service is top notch!

Both of the sandos were perfect. The wagyu beef sando had a little bit more flavor but it was slight and both are worth trying.

The service was stellar and they were easy to book on OpenTable I also tried the green tea mocktail and found it to be light and refreshing and I was happy that it wasn't super sweet My two favorite items were: 1. The Edamame - which were charred in a way that I feel like I've never experienced it before and had such great flavor. 2. The scallop roll had a thinly sliced shaved truffle on top that made the roll simple yet out of this world. Shout out to the manager who came by just to check in.

So good the chili flavor is nice and has depth to it and not very spicy. More flavorful and goes so well together w the crunchy scallion texture on the soft fish Hirame usuzukuri- 4/5 - it was good but i could skip it. Flavor was really nice and light. The plum flavor was very distinct. But based on personal preference liked the hamachi more Ora king salmon- 4.7/5- very good the lemon flavor was so nice. The only thing is i felt the nigiris had too much wasabi at the end and the sizes are quite tiny Salmon toro (belly)- 4.7/5- really good. Same as above a little too much wasabi at the end and small size. Like the ora king more Hamachi Apple- 5/5 nice sweetness in the beginning from the apple and then a little bit of spice later on. Really enjoyed this one a lot lighter Kudamono 3/5- the banana is interesting and pleasant in texture but i would say overall compared to the other rolls. Tastes more average and familiar to a typical roll youd get elsewhere Soto 2.0- 5/5 really good had a nice depth of flavor.This and the hamachi were the favorites Uni pasta- 5/5- really enjoyed the depth and flavor. Less on the uni side and more a creamy and thick taste that is really good Risotto- 5/5 - very good and freshly warm

Was the fish good? Sure. Was it worth the $450 I wound up spending... For 2 people... NOT EVEN A LITTLE. **THEY CHARGED ME $64 for 6 slices of Anago sashimi, even though on the menu it was $7 per slice. ** They also charged me $110 for a sashimi platter, and I have absolutely NO CLUE where they came up with this number. Truly pissed off at this restaurant. ALWAYS TRIPLE CHECK YOUR BILL BEFORE PAYING!!!!! This restaurant stole from us.
