First of all. The price for the meal starts at 39.99 regardless of time (lunch and dinner). 39.99 for regular AYCE and 48.99 I think for premium. What we like They have options to order half rolls for special rolls. So we can try variety of stuff. Many options for starters, lumpia, karaage, chashu bun, edamame, etc. Also have katsu and chicken curry , ramen, udon. Expansive menu. We also like that they put the bottle of water on the table so we don't have to keep asking. They do paper orders for nigiri and it's limited to 4 rounds. 2 nigiri order per person. What we don't like They have a limit of 2 special rolls per order. Regardless of half of full order. I wish they would let us do 4 half special rolls OR 2 full rolls per order. We came specifically for the special rolls so it was difficult to order all the types we want within the time frame. And they lock out ordering for 10min. So we can total order probably 5 times IF we keep an eye out for the menu to open up. But when you're eating you wont be paying attention to the screen. The rolls and nigiri are honestly just ok. There are a couple we enjoyed but for the price I think we were better off just going by ala carte restaurant. We like the Eagles, Red Dragon, Golden Knights. Spicy tuna was pretty good also. Other than that we weren't too impressed. Service was great. Right now they take InKind gift card which can be up to 30% off from Costco.

One of the better AYCE sushi options in the Bay Area! Went in on a Thursday evening and it wasn't too busy. The inside is pretty big with plenty of tables, TVs, and booths. We were seated at a long table as a party of 6 so we got two of the ordering tablets which was nice. For the nigiri's, you order on a piece of paper and we were able to order 12 per round per paper (we got two) and a total of 4 times. We tapped out at two rounds of nigiri, so definitely plenty of nigiri to go around. The fish to rice ratio was actually pretty good and the fish tasted very fresh IMO. We also ordered some rolls and the 49ers was delicious. The tekka maki was good rice to fish ratio as well but the rice was a bit on the mushy side. The shrimp ball, jalapeño bomb, and udon were also great too. Overall, the food was solid for the price. The service was good despite there being only one waitress. She was very attentive and nice. The food came out quickly and we actually got full and had about 25 minutes left so I think it's plenty of time, just be sure to put in orders as soon as the time resets as we went on a slower day. Will definitely be back and the regular dinner AYCE for $39.99 was a steal. Give this spot a try!

Went here for dinner and had a great all you can eat experience. They sit you down and you have 90 minutes to order as many rolls as you want. Make sure you don't over order as there is a $2 fee for every piece of sushi you do not eat! For nigiri, you have 4 rounds, each round you can order 4 orders of nigiri per person (8 total pieces). Since it was me and someone else, we were able to order 8 orders (16 pieces of nigiri) per round. The ambiance is very chill, clean and upbeat. They had the World Cup games on while we were there which was cool! The service was excellent, quality of food was surprisingly good for an AYCE sushi place and would definitely recommend checking it out!

Came here for AYCE, but it is not really true AYCE. There is a cap on nigiri orders, 12 per person, and it only applies to adults, not even to the paying kids. That kind of defeats the purpose. A lot of people go to AYCE for the flexibility and mindset of ordering freely, not necessarily to overeat, so the restriction takes away from the experience. That said, the fish was actually pretty good and tasted fresh, which I appreciated. Service was fine and the overall experience was decent, but the limitations make it hard to justify coming back for AYCE specifically. If I am looking for AYCE, I would go somewhere without those restrictions. If I am okay with limited sushi, I would rather spend the money at a higher quality non-AYCE spot.

I usually go to Harumi AYCE and wanted to try out the premium items they had here. The uni and unagi sushi were very delicious. Very good quality. The bummer was you can only order those items one time, almost cancelling the what ayce means. They do have a large selection of different items that Harumi doesn't have on their menu. Ordering was through a tablet on the table. However ambiance and service lacked on the day we were eating lunch. Maybe I went on an off day. There was two wait staff during the lunch period and both were very busy and didn't seem wanting to help much. So that was disappointing. The tea cup was quite small so I had to ask for refills several occasions. I would say if you don't mind or can overlook the lack of service, it's an option for a tasty ayce option.

Had lunch here a couple weeks ago with my daughter. Plenty of seating and was seated right away. You had 90 mins for AYCE and you order through a tablet on the table. However, you need to order your nigiri's with your server. Each person is allowed 12 orders of nigiri, each comes with 2 pieces. If you want to order more, I believe there is an extra charge for it. Also, for the rolls you can order 2 rolls at a time. Overall, quality of the food was really good and the service was fast. Would definitely come back again whenever in the area again.

I debated dropping my rating down to 4 stars because of my most recent experience here, but the food just tastes too good. Since my last visit, I noticed a big difference in the food and service. Before, the nigiri had barely even a drop of rice. Now, there is a significantly greater amount of rice. I noticed now there is a nigiri limit of 12 orders (2 pieces per order) per person. While although this is definitely a lot of nigiri, the fact that there is a restriction (outside of the 90 minute allotted timeframe) feels like it defeats the purpose of AYCE. If you want to order past this limit, there is an additional $4.99 fee. It feels like they are trying to get people to eat less while charging the same, if not more. During this Sunday afternoon visit, we were not even able to utilize the ordering screens for nigiri. A message would pop up saying "Call the server to order." We had to summon a server any time we wanted to order nigiri instead of conveniently using the screen. The vibe in there just feels completely different now. The TVs were all playing different things. The large one in the center was showing some online gaming tournament of characters running around shooting guns. Although this didn't bother me, it just felt a little out of place for a sushi restaurant. Regardless of these changes, the food still tastes delicious and I will stay a loyal customer.

Been here 3 times before today and quality and service has definitely gone down since then. Not sure if change of ownership or change of staff but for an AYCE place, we were limited to 4 pieces each for nigiri. They raised prices to $49.99 for the premium sushi which I feel like only included maybe 5 or 6 extra different nigiri and it doesn't even include soda...The rice to fish ratio was definitely off. They packed the rice so it was so dense and chewy and not that great... you can see the difference in the fish sizing from the pictures. The fish was overhanging the rice before

It was my first time visiting this restaurant, and one of the main reasons we chose because of the nigiri. We also noticed a price update from the December 2025 menu image--the current price is now $34.99. The restaurant was very spacious and clean, parking was easy, and the service from the staff was amazing. The menu is on a tablet, very easy and convenient. The only exception is that nigiri must be ordered directly from the server, and there is a limit of 12 orders total, with 2 pieces per order per person, which is plenty. I also loved that many of the rolls could be ordered in half sizes, which made it easier to try more items. I liked that the menu had a wide variety of options, including both free and paid items, with fresh, grilled, and fried selections. Everything we tried tasted freshly made, which was a big plus. For drinks, I really liked how the corkage fee is $15, which makes this a great spot for special occasions as well. The only wish is that hot tea had been a little stronger, with more tea and less water, and a dessert menu (i.e., ice cream, coffee) too. Overall, the fresh food, clean environment, easy parking, and excellent service, I would definitely love to visit again.

Wanted to try an AYCE although I am not built for one since I get full easily with minimal food, but we went for our daughter who wanted a lot of sushi! Place was not too busy during early evening. Order on ipad, wait at least 10 minutes before you can order again. Some of the items are additional like the kamas. Salmon nigiri was good and some of the rolls like dragon roll. Chirashi was more salad than fish, edamame was super spicy, shrimp tempura was pretty good, you get water or hot tea included, but honestly the price is a bit high for dinner at $43 pp. It is a local place to try at least once.

Hmm I thought I had reviewed this but here we go again. This is a great place to explore. I admire the philosophy. All you can eat sushi sounds like a trick, where you imagine a buffet with a few choices and who knows how long it's been out, but here thats not the case. You get 90 minutes, no rush, and choose from the menu the different options you want. My first time, as usual, is part of a learning process. I was not extremely hungry but wanted to test things out. I was drawn to the spider rolls, and they had several different types. All great, and I had cold soba noodles and a few other dishes. I guess I overlooked the sashimi section, and probably should have started with it, but I was pretty full by then. It was a great start to a great idea. For under $40 per person you can enjoy a complete meal of fresh food, including freshly made sushi. Definitely a great option for a group gathering.

I'm giving this place 2 stars because there's definitely room for improvement, and I think it has potential. I was excited to try a new all-you-can-eat sushi spot, and we were seated right away as a party of four, so off to a great start. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and has a good variety on the menu -- sashimi, nigiri, hand rolls, rolls, and hot items like ramen, udon, and katsu curry. Unfortunately, the experience took a turn by slow service and a very restrictive ordering system. You're limited to about 10 items per round (for a table, despite your party size) and can't place another order for 10 minutes. We came in hungry, so the long waits between orders made things frustrating pretty quickly. The customer service could definitely be improved. We were given incorrect information about our ordering tablet. We noticed that the tablet was showing we started at 60 minutes instead of 90 and that it couldn't be changed, but another waitress was able to fix it easily when we asked. They also forgot to check in on a beer order, and we eventually just opted out since it was taking too long. The food itself was good -- I did appreciate the rice-to-fish ratio with lighter rice and larger fish portions. Their appetizers were good as well, with the fried mushroom being my favorite. Overall, an okay experience, but I would not come back. There are definitely better AYCE sushi spots in the Bay Area.

Lots of nigiri. I think this is pretty good.

There needs to be more photos and details for portion sizes and ingredients in items other than their rolls. We went in for lunch today and there was only one waitress seating and taking orders, and it's either the manager or owner who was delivering the food to tables. We were on our second round of food when we had to remind the waitress for the soju we ordered. She apologized and thanked us for our patience. We also never got the soba noodles that we had ordered in the first round but we didn't bring it up. I ordered my second round of food before my first round of food fully arrived because it was hard to catch the waitress. After finishing the first round of orders and receiving the second round I was getting full, and for example this mini rice curry side is very large and I only finished the katsu on top. The server gave us the check but after several minutes the owner/manager came and reminded us that he is going to have to charge the full price of the curry rice and half of the lion king roll (total: $19.50) if I couldn't finish it like they had mentioned in the beginning. He then had a long conversation with the server by the computer system/POS I'm assuming reminding her that she has to charge for unfinished food. What if I didn't finish the food because I didn't like it? What if I didn't finish the food because I didn't realize how large the portion would be? I couldn't be bothered to argue. I understand the restaurant wants to be compensated for wasted food, but they should really consider how their service was as well. His demeanor was rude and although the food wasn't bad, I would not come here again because of that. He was micromanaging his staff. read more

Our family of 6 had an enjoyable dinner here tonight. We were seated and served promptly by the friendly staff. We ordered the AYCE option. The appetizers were amazing. We sampled most of them. The KFC and Tofu were our favorites. We loved the seared salmon nigiri and Yuzu yellowtail nigiri. The fishes were very fresh on the top of the premium short grain rice, perfect ! The service was very prompt and satisfactory. We left with six full stomachs and happy soul :) read more

Food was alright. They gave you a lot of rice which is understandable for AYCE so you get full faster. They ran out of uni and ice cream. The server let us know that they have some sort of a problem with the ice cream vendor for 2 weeks.... You can't give out something else while waiting for them to come through? I'd drive a bit further to go to Sake2Me for better rice portion. read more

Rating: 2/5 I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, my experience didn't live up to expectations. We started off with the appetizers and nigiri, both of which were decent. The sushi rolls, however, took forever to arrive, which was frustrating. When they finally did, they were just okay--not bad, but certainly not worth the wait. I expected a bit more given the price. $49 per person for AYCE. What really ruined the experience, though, was the way we were treated by one of the waiters. After we left a few small pieces of food on our plates (we were still eating and had not finished), the waitress actually pointed at our table and made a scene about it. We had a small piece of calamari, a few rice balls (the size that you would give to a 6month old baby) and one small piece of sushi left, and instead of politely checking in on us, she turned it into an ordeal. It was uncomfortable and embarrassing, especially since we weren't even done eating yet. At the end of the day, we spent over $150 on sushi for 3 people, and it just wasn't worth it. The food was average and we won't be returning anytime soon. read more

This is my second visit, the first was great! No issues at all. This time around, we arrived at 1:40pm, AYCE for lunch ends 2:30pm. We were fine with the time limit as we know what we want to order. The host did not want to seat us. He stalled for so long that we were still standing waiting at the front at 2:00pm. He said he would be quick, we would be seated in 2 minutes of or arrival. Then he came back and said he's going to take everyone's (people who are already seated), all their orders so that the kitchen can make theirs first without consideration for us. When we told him we were leaving, he definitely seemed relieved. read more

Celebrated a birthday here yesterday saturday night. I thought almost all the food items we tried here were great. Best part is you never had to wait long and each dish was brought out rather quickly. Staff was friendly and checked on us often. Extra thanks to our asian waitress with tattoos on her arm. She was very sweet but didn't get her name since no name tag. Only slight downer was being out of green tea ice cream on a saturday night. Someone here definitely listens to k-pop. They had sushi rolls named super shy, eta, and supernova. Not a coincidence. I'll definitely be back. $45 for dinner ayce sushi is a great deal these days.

Visited Mad for Fish for an all-you-can-eat sushi experience, and overall, food was solid--but the service definitely left a sour taste in my mouth. Let's start with the positives: the food was delicious. The sushi was fresh, the rolls were creative, and the quality was actually pretty impressive for an AYCE spot. Everything tasted great, and the variety was solid, with a decent selection of options to choose from. However, the service completely threw off the experience. About halfway through our meal, we were suddenly scrutinized by a staff member who came over to inform us that we had leftovers, specifically small amounts of rice from nigiri (please see pictures). Now, I get that restaurants have policies about waste, but it felt like we were being unfairly singled out for small pieces of leftover in the MIDDLE of our dinner. To be clear, the rest of the staff was friendly enough, but this interaction was uncomfortable and felt like an unnecessary power trip. It really detracted from the overall dining experience, especially when we were trying to enjoy our meal. In the end, the food was great, but the service from this specific waitress definitely needs some work--especially when it comes to handling delicate situations like food leftovers. I paid $45.99 for AYCE so a tiny bit of leftovers will not hurt a business. When I say tiny, I mean tiny. Would recommend with caution if you're looking for a relaxed experience. Pros: -Fresh, high-quality sushi -Creative rolls and solid selection -Interior design/layout of the restaurant Cons: Scrutinizing behavior about tiny amounts of waste (see pictures) $45.99 AYCE price Service is important to me so I will never return to this restaurant. read more

walked in on a weeknight to a completely empty dining room. i've never seen anything like it. we were confused and thought maybe the restaurant was closed. server began by explaining the limits for ordering (5 items in each round, limited to 1 roll per round). ordering system could be made simpler and more efficient. it bottlenecks with the server taking everyone's orders by hand. at first glance, looks like the menu had good variety of appetizers and nigiri and rolls. but after a few passes at the menu, it's tuna and salmon with different sauces or toppings. it'd be nice to have more variety. did not like the agedashi tofu (the batter was stuck to dense tofu, that's not how it's supposed to be), did not care for the udon broth, and was disappointed by cold soba. everyone's nigiri orders all came out on one dish, and since each round took a while to come out, by the time it came, many of us forgot who had ordered what. the best part of this restaurant is their premium à la carte. ordered uni nigiri for $5 and was pleased about that. hamachi kama, however, was a letdown. all in all, i would not return nor recommend to friends and family. also, note that there is a service charge for parties 5 and greater. read more

Food was great as well as the service! It wasn't busy upon arrival at around 3PM on a Friday. It was my first time at this place, since I've been looking for an AYCE sushi in Dublin. We were sat right away and given a full rundown on how it works. Our waiter allowed us to order 2 - 3 appetizers along with our "5 orders per person" since it was a slow day for them. I couldn't get our first waiter's name before he left, but he was very nice and catered to us when we were about done with each round of food we ordered. The nigiri is my personal favorite to order in AYCE and it was a perfect rice to fish ratio! We didn't get around to ordering the special rolls, but we were informed that you can order half size of the special rolls so there is no food waste. The only downside was the second waiter did not seem trained in customer service, but overall a great experience. Would eat here again! read more

Amakara

We decided to visit Amakara for our late Father's Day since we didn't have time to go anywhere…read moreyesterday. I am quite surprised that the place isn't that big for a modern environment. I went around and thought that there's going to be more room but it's not what I expected. Also am surprised that it's that many people on Monday but I guess they're celebrating late Father's Day too? Anyways, the food is really delicious and quality is tremendous. Very upscale honestly especially with how big the portion sizes are. I individually got Chicken Katsudon and it's not really hard. Very chewy and I couldn't finish it since I ate a lot of sushi before it arrived. My sister didn't even finish her individual plate too and so we ended up taking them to go. What shocked me is that they serve us a huge portion of desserts especially the green tea ice cream. I thought that it's only going to be one scoop but they gave us 3! I think the one scoop is for someone's birthday? I don't know. And the vanilla ice cream with grilled pineapple is so yummy and it had a lot of cinnamon flavor I believe. It's one of the best vanilla ice creams I'd ever had. I probably never tasted vanilla ice cream that good before! I also appreciate the staff for helping with us with our orders! They were so helpful and kind to us. If I ever bring my friends over, it'd be this place. I highly recommend for others to try this place because the food here is really amazing!

I came here for lunch just as they opened and was seated immediately. You scan a QR code on the table for the menu, which was overwhelming. There are so many categories and choices within each category: sushi, ramen, bento boxes, hot dishes, oysters, small plates, and more. We chose from their Lunch specials: + Nigiri lunch - you get 6 nigiris and several maki rolls (chef's choice). All were so fresh and delicious, and beautifully presented. + Chirashi Don - freshly cut fish, roe, and a few veggies over perfectly cooked sushi rice. + Soup & Salad - this came with our lunches. The miso soup was very good and not salty like most. The salad had a vinaigrette dressing with an herb I can't put my finger on. It was very refreshing. The lunches were in the $30 range, which is a bit steep. I'd definitely come back here for celebrations.

Their deluxe sashimi was surprisingly good. They served us different fishes that you typically don't get to see, not the simple salmon/tuna/hamachi. They also fried a whole mackerel which was super tasty. The service is always really nice and attentive here. This place is great for a quick date or sushi fix before shopping!

Shinkai does-- automatic plus for me. I ordered the Sushi Crafter Box and salivated as it being walked over to my table. It looked so satisfying that I didn't even want to dig in. But of course I had to. It was incredible! I normally don't love fatty tuna because the texture can be inconsistent and veiny but it was soft and not veiny at all! My fiance ordered 2 rolls, and a sashimi appetizer and loved it all. We were able to share everything we ordered and both left very satisfied.

Our group order udon for the kids, a few rolls, an unagi don, a few nigiri orders, and a few of the sashimi sampler boxes. The food was ok and served our cravings. The sampler boxes were big enough for one hungry adult or two adults to share. The unagi don was the smallest don I've ever seen and for $25 it felt overpriced. The rolls were comparable to any other restaurant. The host and waiter were friendly and took our orders and brought out water and tea quickly. Our server on the other hand had this look of disdain. When we asked for a fork for the kids or more ice for water, he looked rather annoyed.

We found out that they're able to customize orders (ex. ordering handrolls without rice) so that came in clutch too. He was super proactive and was helping us push out orders quickly without being too pushy about it. The restaurant itself was also very well constructed - tables were wide which makes it perfect for large parties and it felt very clean in general too.

Usually not a fan of AYCE sushi places but my son insist to come here for Mother's day to give it a try. It did not disappoint actually. If you are able to eat alot, its worth ur money. Like most AYCE places u get 90 mins to eat. They have some basic rules of ordering limit. U can a total of 4 orders during ur sitting. We actually didn't even need to use all 4 ordering for our sushi. There are also other rolls u can order on the kiosk that has no limit. Ofc order what u need and don't waste food. I think we paid about $49.99 per person on Mother's day for dinner. Pretty good. It was worth it for me cos I got to eat alot of amaebi, scallop, ika etc. If you are someone that can't eat a whole lot like my 80yo mom then its not worth coming here more than once. Overall, I liked it alot and it was better than I expected. I would come back again with friends. read more

For sushi lovers, Mad for Sushi is a must-try. My recent trip to this all-you-can-eat sushi spot left me impressed with both the quality of food and the friendly service. The salmon nigiri stood out in particular - incredibly fresh and flavorful. When I arrived, one of the staff members informed me that I would need to wait for about 5 minutes in the waiting area. Shortly after, another gentleman told me the wait time would be 10 to 15 minutes. Although this wasn't the warmest welcome, it was understandable once another staff member explained the reason. To maintain high-quality service, they limit the number of tables, which is commendable. It seems they might need more staff to handle the flow of customers better. Despite this, the atmosphere was inviting, and the staff were friendly. I'll definitely be returning to this place soon. read more

I recently dined at Mad for Sushi ，and was thoroughly impressed. The fish was exceptionally fresh, with each slice showcasing a clean, delicate flavor. The sushi rice was perfectly seasoned -- subtly sweet and slightly tangy -- complementing the seafood beautifully. The chef's presentation was meticulous, making every plate a feast for both the eyes and palate. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the staff's knowledge of the menu made it easy to try new specialties. The cozy ambiance, soft lighting, and calm background music created a relaxing dining experience. Whether you're a sushi enthusiast or a newcomer, this place is a gem worth visiting. read more

The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxing, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family.

We also came in pretty late, but the staff was still very accommodating and allowed us to place a large order of 40+ nigiri (as seen in the photo).

Amazing AYCE sushi spot with super fresh fish and a huge variety of options. The salmon, tuna, and yellowtail all tasted fresh and high quality, and everything came out looking well-made instead of rushed like some all-you-can-eat places. The best part is that they allow half orders, so you can try way more dishes without getting full too quickly. Service was fast and attentive even during a busy dinner rush.
