A bit overpriced for the quality, but the ambiance was great! Our server was super kind and funny. The sushi was good but nothing too special. Their fried oreo, however, was amazing. read more

All you can eat sushi in a fun atmosphere with very kind service. Outside the restaurant is a giant transformer robot, and the atmosphere inside is just as fun, making it perfect for families and children. The waiters are very kind to kids - and the value for food is great if you are looking for an all you can eat spot. They serve the sushi in rounds of no more than 20, which is generous. The menu has everything you might want from rolls to sashimi to nigiri. Our group ordered two all you can eats, an udon noodle, and many apps. We enjoyed the appetizers - with standouts being the spicy edamame and shrimp yakitori. Would definitely return with groups and kids in the future. read more

A different version because we tried it also in Killeen, Texas. So now we try it in Austin. This place is really happening. A lot of customers and it's hussling and busseling. It was lots of movement. My parents love Ahi Sashimi and so I asked for 40 slices of it and possibly two times. It was my Mom's birthday and this was something I wanted them to have for an early dinner. We tried some potstickers, shrimp and vegetables tempura, some mussels, seafood soup and more. It's really hard to remember what we ordered. But the service is so great. Our waiter kept coming to check up on us almost every 15 mins. What a great experience. love it! read more

Machi Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

It was such a pleasant time & my favorite part was the ambience. The waitress was extremely patient and helpful, no reservations were required. They had bumblebee from transformers, Outside, which I thought was really cool. My favorite was their deep fried Oreos, but their Sushi was decent. It wasn't the freshness or anything. It was more, so just the flavors. But very good. Overall, my family really enjoyed the Hibachi salmon. read more

Needed sushi, and I heard of a new sushi buffet spot, so Machi sushi I went. Atmosphere: Well themed Japanese street ally sort of feeling. I really enjoyed the lighting with lanterns. Food: Buffet time! The selection of items are pretty solid, I enjoyed the mix of hibachi along with plenty of choice of seafoods for sushi or sashimi style. Along with the fact that you can order 20 pieces of sashimi at a time versus most other places that give you a set amount. Overall solid selection and definitely won't leave hungry. Service: Buffet style, so you won't get much interaction from staff, but they were very well staffed and my party didn't have to wait much to place orders. Fixed my fish/sushi cravings for a solid price. Well kept area and great vibes. Would recommend if in the area. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally tried it with my friend last night. The sushi was really good and a decent size. We order sashimi, hand rolls, and a couple of signature rolls. Our waiter Alan was very funny and attentive and got our food out very quickly. We ordered 3 rounds of food. This is absolutely worth it for all you can eat. Come hungry! The inside of the restaurant was really nice. Unfortunately, there's only a single bathroom for each gender so you have to wait in line to use the restroom. We came on a Monday night and the parking lot was pretty full, not sure what parking would look like on the weekend. I would definitely come again on a weeknight. read more

This spot is connected to a hotel on the south side of Austin. Parking lot is small and doesn't have enough room for cars to pass in both directions. We were sat quickly and our waiter was very attentive . I started with a Thai tea (not included in AYCE price. ) The tea itself was very watered down however the boba was a great texture. 2/5 Shumi was good but had a strange texture inside 4/5 The spicy edamame was very flavorful. 5/5 The baked green muscles were enjoyable nothing special that you can't get at the other ayce spots but I enjoyed- 4/5 The fried jalapeño(honeymoon) was basically a fried jalapeño popper- 5/5 but its served as a half a jalapeño cut into 2- if there's multiple people you might need to order a few at a time. The hamachi chili & pepper tuna tataki was great tasted fresh with a great sauce on top 4/5 Both the rolls were had (#18/#19) were falling apart, not much flavor to them as you would expect 3/5. The white tuna nigiri was very bland as well but fish seemed fresh 3/5 The shrimp yakatori was grilled shrimp with a sweet sauce on top-3/5 The habachi shrimp was grilled shrimp with a savory sauce 4/5 Fried Oreo was quite greasy 3/.5 . Bathroom was dirty and floors very slippery through the restaurant. Decorative very modern with lots of plants and neat lighting- seats were comfy. Wouldn't take the drive again from round rock to go here but if I'm the area, I might give them another try. Wasn't really impressed overall there's other ayce spot around town that I've enjoyed more. read more

All you can eat usually means low quality but not here. We are from out of town and were pleasantly surprised by the quality, service and value at Machi Sushi! Our favorite rolls were the Tokyo and salmon skin, sashimi favorites were the salmon and flying fish eggs. Service was super fast and the restaurant has a fun vibe. While not as fancy or ornate as some sushi dishes all the rolls were tasty . This is a great place to try different rolls without breaking the bank! read more

Machi Sushi - Great rolls! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

The hype around Machi Sushi has died down and in its place? Mediocre and lackluster sushi that can be replicated (but shouldn't) at any other AYCE sushi spot in town. Machi is under new management, and it's noticeable. The quality of fish isn't as fresh, cold, or as flavorful as before. I kept my order small because it felt like I was forcing myself to eat to make the AYCE price worth it. If you visit on a weekday during lunch, the pricing is more cost efficient, but they offer a limited all-you-can-eat menu and removes some of the better items you'd find at dinner. read more

We decided to try it here with a little drive but because it was quite popular on social media. The decor was nice, service was great. Food came out really quick and they were delicious. The sashimi could be a hit or miss. The size of it is not big and some could be great and fresh and some is not. The sauce on the rolls is a little too much to our liking. But over all we like it!!! Definitely love the transformer at the front. read more

The place was clean and the restrooms were adequate (single stalls). Will definitely be back! read more

I am a huge fan of Machi!! Their $25 all you can eat lunch just can not be beat. The price compared to what you're offered is incredible! $36 Dinner is damn good too and had even more options! I've been here several times and every time the table service is friendly and super fast! The bartender was a little stale once but I was just ordering a drink while waiting for a friend so I didn't have to deal with him much. Since they do get busy and work very fast they sometimes bring stuff to the table that isn't yours so watch for what's being dropped off. Now the food!! Ohhh the options for all you can eat are endless!! I HIGHLY recommend the soft shell crab roll, hamachi chili, Cajun roll! These are all on the dinner menu. If you're there for lunch try the dynamite roll and the futomaki roll!! Absolutely fantastic! Their desserts are amazing too! Fried Oreos, fried Twinkie's, fried bananas, and assorted ice cream! There's so much more on the menu these are just some of my faves you've really got to give this place a try! read more

The service was really kind and they did a very sweet surprise for my birthday. They had a robot come out with them to sing and brought me some desserts with a candle to blow out. Overall, the fish was surprisingly very fresh. We ordered a ton of sashimi and it was so easy to bite through, and dissolved so easily. The rolls stuck together and didn't fall apart. I also liked the portions for the rolls which made them easy to split for two people. read more

Came to Machi Sushi for the lunch AYCE menu. There's not too many around so I HAD to try it since I'm a big sushi lover! Starting off when coming in, the atmosphere is beautiful! We were helped instantly since there was no wait time but it was on the busier side by the time we left. Food wise, everything came out really quickly. With that being said, the nigiri was decent. For the price, it is worth it since we got two plates worth but I wouldn't say it's the highest quality. The yellowtail was the highlight! We got a couple rolls like the skinny girl roll and double spicy roll. The rolls tasted mediocre, not much variety to them as well. We enjoyed the Dynamite roll the best! Overall, it was a cute place for a quick sushi date on a budget! read more

Super fast service!! Once you order, they have so many chefs cranking out each order. We had a large party and were done within an hour of sitting down. Some of our waters took a while to get though. Our server (Alan I think) was extremely nice and helpful when we had questions. The quality of the fish was good and they had a good selection of sushi rolls, rice, udon, nigiri options. The price during lunch was very reasonable. There's a lot of seating as well. read more

This was our first time visiting this restaurant, which operates like a buffet but with slightly different rules. When we were seated, the hostess didn't explain how the system works. We waited for a server, and when they came, we finally understood the concept: there is a fixed price of $25 before 3 PM (lunch) and $35 after 3 PM (dinner), allowing you to order unlimited dishes during your meal. All the food was fresh and delicious. The fish, sashimi, and all the rolls we ordered were incredibly flavorful. The seafood tasted fresh, and the salad was also great. Overall, the food deserves five stars--it's definitely worth the price. Unlike some buffets that offer dishes with imitation crab or stale fish, everything here was of high quality. There's a wide selection of dishes, plenty to choose from, and drinks are paid for separately. They also offer a small selection of desserts (five options). Unfortunately, when they served the ice cream, it came in a chipped bowl. This is unacceptable, as bacteria can gather in the cracks. As the restaurant owner, you should remove damaged dishes immediately and never serve food in them. The atmosphere was lovely. The space was clean, beautifully designed, and well-lit, with attractive decor and well-set tables. It made for a very pleasant dining experience. Our server was very friendly and attentive--thank you to them! However, we were disappointed that the hostess didn't explain the rules of the restaurant, which caused some confusion at the start. read more

Such an amazing AYCE with a wide assortment of foods. They have sashimi, sushi rolls, hibachi, appetizers, noodles, and you can order as much as you want! My favorite dishes were salmon sashimi, Alaska roll, and chicken yakitori. My least favorite dishes were scallops sashimi (it was mashed up and didn't taste like scallop) and pepper tuna sashimi (it was tuna coated in black pepper and gave it very dry, sandy texture) The service was great, my server came back often to take my orders and the bussers quickly removed empty plates from my table. The ambiance is nice, there's cool decoration and pop music. The volume is medium to loud. I would definitely come here again! Food 4.5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Price 5/5 read more

SERVICE/AMBIANCE: - This restaurant is very beautiful! I loved the interior of it - It seems to be quite popular, so I would expect a wait if you go with a party. We waited around an hour for four people. FOOD - Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! My friends and I did that all you can eat menu, which was $36 on the weekend. I would recommend going with a group of people so you can maximize the amount of things you can try. - Unlike a sushi buffet, you place your orders with a waiter and the rolls are made fresh. I thought the quality of everything was amazing. read more

The food was very yummy. The service was very very fast compared to any of the other all-you-can-eat restaurants. The ambience and aura was just amazing. They gave us flowers because it was Valentine's Day. They were very much adequately staffed despite being a very busy night because I was spoken to at least once every 10 minutes but never while I was like actively eating so they were great. That all you can eat menu includes all of the machi special rolls in the dinner time. The estimated wait time was two hours, but we got in within the hour arriving at 5:40 and being seated around 640. Our queue was of about 30. By 6:40 the queue Was of maybe 70 parties. read more

Went for the all you can eat lunch on a Friday afternoon and it was pretty packed. We arrived around 1pm and were seated in one of the outer rooms, which had a noticeably different vibe without the beautiful ceiling decor from the main area. I would have preferred to sit in the main area. Service was excellent, as the staff checked in right as we finished each round and were friendly and happily took our order. For appetizers, I really enjoyed the miso soup, seaweed salad, and aged tofu. The salmon nigiri was especially fresh with wonderful plump and fresh rice. We tried the Skinny Girl roll, Golden Dragon roll, Rainbow roll, and Spicy Salmon roll. The Golden Dragon and Rainbow rolls were standouts, but overall everything was solid despite the limited roll selection. read more

Um wow! This was my first all you can eat sushi experience and it was pretty great. It's in the old Marco Polo dim sum restaurant location next to a Best Western. There's a full lot but plenty of parking in the adjoining hotel lot. They don't take reservations unless you have a party of six or more so we went on a weekday and got a lunch rate of $25 per person. No line at all. The apps are pretty standard and delicious. There are about six cooked roll and six raw rolls and about 15 types of nigiri. There are also tons of hand rolls and additional basic sushi rolls. The tiny guy seated next to me ate 20 nigiri the first round, then 3 giant hand rolls, and then another round of 20 nigiri. He was ordering more when we left! Hollow legs may have put a dent in their profits that day. The food was as good or better than what you'd get from central market to go, which is $12 for one roll. It's not melt in your mouth sushi from Uchi so don't expect that. The robot server was a little useless and confused. Maybe it was her first day and she was shadowing. Service was fast and friendly but they could use about three more bussers since there are so many plates. It's a nice intimate environment. Lots of two tops. I liked the red bean paste ice cream and fried Oreo. If you come at night it's $35 pp, but there's an expanded menu. I will definitely go again, and bring my teenage nephews. read more

You'll be sure to have a fun time eating AYCE sushi here!! There's plenty of parking, you can park in front of the hotel too I'm pretty sure. The restaurant is to the left of the hotel. Reservations can only be made if you have a party of 6 or more, and must be made at least the day before. There's an automatic gratuity of 18% for 6 or more. We went on a Sunday for lunchtime and although it was pretty full, it didn't seem like there were any parties waiting. The setting inside is nicely decorated and sets a fun vibe. I was very pleased about the variety of dishes we could order - there are soups, noodles, plenty of appetizers, hand rolls, cooked rolls, sashimi, seafood, and dessert! I could've filled up just on the appetizers alone. Your table can order up to 20 pieces of sashimi per person per round, which is a lot!! Unlimited rounds for 2 hours. I really liked the smoked salmon sashimi, and the rolls were satisfactory. It's dinner price the whole weekend - $35. I enjoyed the boba as well - got a mango yogurt boba with lychee popping boba. It was super sweet so next time I'd ask if the sweetness can be adjusted. The plastic can you get to take home is a cute touch! Food was SUPER FAST - Literally within 5 minutes of ordering, our food started coming out. This was great because we didn't feel like we had to order before we finished the food each round. It would be nice if they had buttons on the tables to ring down servers, but for the most part they came by our table often. Shoutout to Adam for taking care of us and making our friend's birthday special! read more

A friend recommended this spot, and it's definitely a great value for the price! You can opt for the all-you-can-eat, but make sure you come hungry. The food was decent overall -- my favorite was the sweet potato roll. It does get pretty busy, and the ambiance is on the darker side. read more

I was excited to try this new sushi restaurant, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Unfortunately they don't take reservations for parties under 6 people, so on a Friday night, we were told the wait for 2 people was going to be an hour and a half. However, it only took 40 minutes -- fortunately, it seems like that's a common theme for the wait time to be a lot shorter than originally told. While waiting, you can sit at the bar or they have an outdoor seating area. The service was excellent - our waitress was constantly checking in to see if we needed anything every time she walked by. All the food came out extremely fast! The only exception was the udon that took a while. This place is very affordable and has a large menu with lots of options. Great atmosphere and the inside is very cutely decorated too. The only downside was not being able to see the robot servers which was a cool part of the appeal! They put them away during busy times, which is understandable. This will definitely be a new go-to! read more

Service was very lacking. When we arrived around 7:30 PM on a Tuesday evening, there was a 15-20 minute wait, and they gave us a beeper. Outside, there is a fun statue, and they have some outdoor seats around the corner from the front. The server kept ignoring us and at one point it had been so long since she'd last checked on us (she was in the back for at least 10-15 minutes) that I had to go searching for someone as everyone else who walked by (not our servers) ignored us. The food came out scary fast. The ginger was disgusting. The wasabi was okay. Most of the sushi rolls were okay, but the price was expensive per person for the AYCE and not worth it, in my opinion. The decor is the best part of this restaurant. read more

My husband and I have been here twice already and loved it! The first time we went was during dinner time (AUCE $35.95/ea) It was pretty busy, but they were super nice about it. The second time was during lunch on a Monday and it was pretty empty (AUCE $24.95/ea) Both times we had an incredible service. When you go there for the first time, the server will explain everything to you and it's so helpful, especially if you're new to the all you can eat world, or, like me, you're still unsure to some of the dishes. Everything we tried was really really good. The tempura is light and crispy. The ingredients are fresh, and the avocado is always perfect! I normally don't do a lot of spicy, but their dishes were very doable. Not too spicy. So if you like to have that extra kick, I'd probably ask for sauces to the side. The only two things I noticed that I tried once and that was it: - Fried calamari were stringy. They had some kind of hard string, and I wasn't a fan of it. - The Crab Rangoons could've had a better ratio between crab and cream cheese, but I loved the crunch to it The indoor place is really cool as well! There are a lot of cool decorations and I personally love the moody vibes! Overall, I'd really like it and I give it a 8/10! read more

A giant Transformer, robot waiters, AYCE sushi, dancing fish on the ceiling, and decent drinks make me very happy! You will probably wait to sit. Like for a while. You'll survive. And it's all good. I personally like that there are some veg/vegan friendly options AND cooked dishes so everyone can enjoy a meal here. And if you like less common rolls, they have ones with beef and Cheetos. Truly, something for everyone! read more

You would think that an AYCE buffet would have slow service but nope, Machi Sushi prioritizes getting people in and out which was greatly appreciated. We had a group of 10+ people and everyone left full and satisfied in just over an hour. The drinks, variety of rolls, and the fish itself were solid. I can't believe a legit AYCE sushi place like this exists in Austin. I would happily go back! My only complaint is that there's only one bathroom per gender and the bathroom floor itself was kind of slick... but surprisingly I never had to wait to use the restroom, so it wasn't really an issue but flagging just in case! read more

We came here for a big group celebration. My friend selected here for a group of over 20 people. We rsvp for around 2:30pm on a weekend. The place was packed at 2:30pm, which was surprising to me. There was also a wait. The interior was very well decorated and it looks like they remodel to enclose outdoor seating. While the indoor seating was well decorated, I like seating the "outdoor" part. It was less crowded and more space to move around. As I didn't expect too much from a AYCE sushi restaurant, I found everything else very accommodating. The waiter was very friendly and took all over our order. We ordered rounds and rounds of sushi and sashimi. I was that person who would try to get my money worth with sashimi. The service was very fast and we got our food really fast. This was surprising to me base on how busy it was. Overall, the service was great, the place was well decorated, the fish is good for what it was. We had to pay over 40$/ppl, which was a little steep for me. Will I come back here by myself again, probably not. But will I recommend a big group celebration, yes! read more

I was visiting a friend in Austin and we decided to get some sushi after a day of pickleball. This spot had recently opened, and we were told it was still their soft opening. We arrived pretty late, around 8:30PM, but there were still a decent amount of customers. We had a group of 8, but were seated promptly. The interior is lovely, clean, and beautifully decorated! We were greeted quickly and started off with the sashimi. I'm usually pretty wary about AYCE sashimi, but I was surprised at how fresh it tasted! I didn't get photos unfortunately, as my group was HUNGRY. We ordered various rolls, appetizers, and even more sashimi. All of the dishes came out surprisingly fast, despite how busy it was. I'm surprised reading about the service from the other reviews, as my group had a great experience from start to finish. I appreciated that Tina, the manager, came around to make sure our group was properly taken care of and got us any remaining items that were missing. For a spot that's been open for just two weeks, it was a solid experience. The sushi was fresh, tasty, and the selections were endless. I'm also not big on things that are too sweet, but the fried Oreos were also SOLID. I would be happy to stop by this spot again in the future if I'm back in Austin! read more

Machi is so adorable inside and we were seated quickly for a party of two. We were excited by how many options were on the AYCE Dinner menu. I'm giving this three stars because the food itself was really hit or miss. All of the cooked food was great - tempura, cooked rolls, dessert. The fresh food was mediocre at best. The edamame did not taste fresh and the raw fish was chewy and tasty fishy. TLDR - I would not return for fresh food, but if you're craving deep fried it hits the spot. read more

the restaurant has a nice interior and wonderful service! our food came super fast and we were able to order regularly despite it being crowded. the sashimi and raw items were done well with beautiful plating. our favorites were the hamachi chili, smoked salmon, and eel. they were the perfect amounts of fresh, tender, and fragrant. the tokyo roll was good too, and we liked how the rolls have more filling and less rice. on the other hand, we did not enjoy the beef appetizers and tuna sashimi, which were too tough and chewy. the baked mussels were too fishy and drowned in mayo, and the red bean + green tea ice creams had no flavor either. all that being said there were few good dishes that we kept ordering so its no big deal, you'll find something you like! read more

Visited machi sushi on a Sunday, we were happily sat quickly for a table for two despite a very full restaurant. Very comfortable chairs! Service was very fast, and food as well came out very fast. A few of the rolls were decent, unfortunately the sashimi lacked flavor and was under seasoned or unseasoned. The spicy tuna roll tuna mix was actually mixed in with tempura inside the roll, I personally have never seen tempura mixed in with the spicy tuna the way it was (roll was returned). The best thing on the menu was the fried Oreo dessert with whipped cream. Restaurant was quite loud but we were still able to chat sitting across from each other. read more
