    Magic Sushi is a nice addition to the University area, taking over the space where Blacow used to be. There's plenty of seating, including a sushi bar where you can watch the chefs prepare the rolls, which is a fun touch. When I visited, the restaurant was part of an Offline deal offering $15 off the dinner bill (though that promo has ended). Most rolls are priced around $12-$16. We each ordered a roll and shared, which was plenty of food for us. Both rolls were beautifully presented and tasted delicious, the lobster king roll and the spicy girl roll. Since we had a few dollars left on the deal, I added a miso soup, and my friend tried an Asian bottled soft drink. The soup was flavorful and a nice starter, but I wasn't a fan of the coconut-flavored soda. The biggest downside was the service. We had to ask for water, and refills never came. While the sushi itself is good, there are lots of great sushi spots in town, including some all-you-can-eat options. Still, Magic Sushi is close to home, and I'd go back for convenience and quality rolls.

    Not a bad time, just an okay experience. I came here to grab food with a friend and I'm all down for an all you can eat sushi spot. The ambiance is chill and reminds me of a no frills type spot. The service was fast and nice, no issues there at all. The food was just okay and I'm not saying I wouldn't come back here, but I'm a huge fan of sushi so this just wasn't the normal kind of sushi I like. AYCE spots are great because you can kind of try a lot of different things and I didn't really do that on this trip. I had one roll, soup and some wontons. They were all just okay. I honestly, wouldn't have done the AYCE option this trip bc I wasn't super hungry. But they have a rule that if one person at the table does AYCE, everyone has to. And I get that because someone somewhere ruined that for us lol. But for this trip, for me, it wasn't necessary so I don't feel like what I paid for what I got was worth it. It also smelled very strongly of bleach, which yay they clean up but also it was so strong it overpowered any food smells and was just a bit too much. Again, I'm not saying I wouldn't come back here but it may not be my first choice. I'm glad I got to check it out though!!

    I've been here a few times now and my eyes are always bigger than my stomach. The all you can eat sushi is what I normally come in for. The area is spacious and I love the decor, especially the lighting. The servers are always great. The all you can eat menu is the right amount, not too basic and not too overwhelming. I love that the sushi is a good portion and its presentation is neat. The quality of the sushi tastes fresh as well and you get your moneys worth.

    This restaurant location has seen so different many restaurants...I'm exhausted at this point lol! My friend and I went to try this restaurant out on a Friday night. The place was packed! They had unlimited sushi for $25 and I couldn't believe it. You can order appetizers and as much sushi as you want. Surprisingly the food was ok. I wouldn't go back because I get buffet vibes but sushi lovers should definitely try. The servers were very nice and the place was pretty clean.

    Came to meet some colleagues for sushi as we were all staying in the area. Pretty busy for a Tuesday evening and it's a super large space. They have a really good AYCE deal but we decided to each order an appetizer and roll. I tried their onion soup which was okay, but wish it came out hotter. Had crab rangoons which was good but more on the cream cheese filling than crab. The seaweed salad and fried shrimp appetizer was very good! Also had the sunrise roll and it was pretty good. We washed it down with a shot of sake and Sapporo draft and it was all perfect. Our server was super friendly and food came out very quickly.

    Went once and will be back soon it was amazing. All you can eat to order sushi is always a hit in our book

    Something to consider with Magic Sushi is that they always have a table for you. I say this because some other all you can eat sushi places are usually always packed and you'll need a reservation. Magic sushi, you can just walk into and be seated. I had gotten 2 rolls and my husband got 4. All of those rolls were delicious along with the gyoza and shrimp tempuras. We had also ordered some Coconut Lava Balls and they were SO good. They were warm and sweet and they seemed to have small coconut pieces in them making them nice and flavorful. I will say a downside to the place is that the food takes a little bit longer to receive the food. But maybe that was just my experience since me and my husband combined ordered 6 rolls. In total, our total came out to be $70 dollars since we ended up taking our leftovers.

    The restaurant is very nice and clean. They have an all you can eat option or you can just order a la carte off the regular menu. Sushi tasted great and we loved everything we tried. Our server was nice and attentive. Will be back to try more rolls.

    I got there at 4, service was super fast, and they accommodated the build for my roll.

    The hostess was at the door and greeted me right away. I was dining alone. She navigated me to the back of the restaurant and sat me at a booth big enough for 6 people. I felt like a queen. lol The decor is very modern. The area was clean and I appreciated the height of the booths because you can't see the people in the booths behind you, but it gives you a great eye view of the TVs. They have an all you can eat and a la carte options. I chose the a la carte option. I believe they charge you for uneaten sushi and will allow you to take leftovers home for the all you can eat option. I think there may be a problem with their service. My waitress was really nice, but the pacing of the visits to my table were really off. I waited quite a bit just to get asked for my drink. I never received a drink menu so I had to wait for the drink menu. I decided on my meal by the time the drink menu came. I settled on a mule and water. It came in a decent time. I picked the bento box B for my meal, because it gave me a variety of dishes. It had gyoza, salad, hibachi with shrimp, rice and California roll. The server who dropped off my food, literally slid it across the table and walked off. The bento box was tasty. I felt like I needed more so I ordered spring rolls. It took a while for them to come. I regretted ordering them because I had to wait a while for them. They were tiny. I watched other sushi orders come out for other guests and they looked very tasty. I would chance another visit here. I would definitely bring my patience and empty stomach.

    Service was kinda terrible, it was hard to get a hold of our waitress. The kitchen was closing soon and she was no where to be found for us to put our last orders in. The sushi was great. I got a philadelphia roll and salmon nigiri. The hibachi chicken or veggies were not my favorite but the rice was tasty. If i return I will prob just do sushi only!

    Went for all you can eat for 2nd time and this place never disappoints. Sushi was fresh, fried items came out hot and fresh as well. My waiter super friendly and knew the menu. Large space felt calm.

    Crabless Rangoon , in fact cheese less as well.

    Service sucks. Waiter did not have it in part of our order. Has not come back for reorders or drink refills. Sushi is so-so. Mr Tokyo. Much better and fresher. Don't recommend at all

I was more than willing to pay a reasonable upcharge for the substitution. Instead, I was told--rather dismissively--that I would have to order each item separately. That would mean paying $13.49 for the wings plus $7.99 for plain noodles, bringing the total to over $20 for essentially the same meal. I also questioned the wording regarding what was "included," only to be told, "Yes, EXCEPT the specialty wings." The explanation was unclear and did little to justify such a significant price difference. I understand that restaurants have substitution policies, and I had no issue paying an additional charge. However, expecting a customer to pay substantially more simply to replace rice with plain noodles seems unreasonable. More importantly, the manner in which the situation was handled was unnecessarily dismissive. Unfortunately, both the pricing policy and the customer service left a poor impression, and I do not plan to return.

On the afternoon/evening of 8/4/25 my husband and I came in. We ordered rose bubble tea, and lavender bubble tea, both large, oat milk, double boba. The second we came in we saw the girl peak her head out and rolled her eyes. "What do you want." With no energy and heavy attitude. I was polite and said my order. And she seemed upset about something on her mind. We decided to tip her I think 15-18% to see if it would make her happy or brighten her day. She didn't say thank you and she just turned around and walked away. I was not expecting her to say thank you for the tip, but I was expecting her to say thank you or your order will be out soon as a customer service note. There was another guy behind the counter/curtain and he mentioned something which made her go. "Oh well it's too late now, and then she shrugged her shoulders. " and we heard that as we left the building. Got home and within about 20 minutes my husband and I threw up. I have no idea what happened to these drinks, as the curtains are closed behind the counter. I no longer trust this place to make me SAFE food.

The drinks came out first, then the ramen and then the noodles and rice. The drinks were delicious, and the galaxy teas were so pretty!! It was definitely difficult to select just one option to try. If you go with a large party and they're willing to share, I would definitely recommend going that route!! A must try spot if you're in the area.
