My friend owed me a birthday lunch and he decided to take me to Sushi Ya. I'm really hard to…read moreimpress when it comes to sushi. My family owned a Japanese Steak house for a long time. After serving for them for many years, I have really high standards and expectations. I was very fortunate to have an uncle who took pride in his fish, sushi rice and the quality of his ingredients that he used to serve his customers. From the freshness of his tuna to how perfectly fried his tempura shrimp pieces were to the plates he used to serve his rolls, everything was perfection. With that kind of high standard ingrained in me, I expect other sushi joints to have that kind of standard as well. I showed up to the restaurant first. I was greeted by Bryan. He was also our server. I was told to sit anywhere I wanted so I picked a table by the wall. Bryan got my drink started while I was looking over the sushi list. Bryan did go over the list with me as well. It was my first time at this joint, never had all you can eat before so it was nice that he went over the dos and don'ts with me. I did get some miso and a salad started. It came out shortly so I worked on it while I was waiting for my homie to show up. The miso was some of the best miso I have had. It was nice and salty! It was hot! It had pieces of nori in it and a few bits of tofu. Delicious! The salad was cute and dainty. It came with a white sweet dressing. I'm glad the salad was part of the ayce. It was a pretty basic salad. It was ok. I couldn't imagine paying more than 2 bucks for it. It's amazing how much sushi joints charge for basic salad. Bagged lettuce with salad dressing could cost you 4 bucks, it's humorous. My friend finally showed up, we went through our sushi list, marked off the things we wanted and sent it off with Bryan. For my first round I grabbed the Idaho roll, inari and ebi. The Idaho roll was basically a Cali roll with cream cheese. It also had the same white sauce that came on the salad. Ya, it was pretty basic. The sushi rice had no acidity to it. I expected the sauce to be a little more exciting but it's salad dressing. I did dip it in soy, wasabi and spicy mayo to add a little flair to it. The inari was decent, it was a little dry. The ebi was super tiny and thin. It needed the rice to give it some volume. My second round was some kani sticks and the crystal shrimp roll. Kani (krab) is not all made equally. These kani sticks were dry and tough. I didn't notice how dry they were in the Idaho roll. The avocado and cream cheese helped with the dryness along with the dipping sauces. I didn't want my friend to get charged for it as a left over so I hard swallowed those two sticks down. The crystal shrimp roll is marinated fried crispy shrimp rolled in the nori and sushi rice. Crispy is probably a description they should leave off. There was nothing crispy about the fried shrimp. And it was cut into a bunch of tiny pieces. So you basically got a a bunch of tiny mushy pieces of shrimp in the middle of this roll. The Itty pieces of shrimp were falling out of the roll so it was annoying to eat. The second round of sushi wasn't all that impressive not that the first round really blew my socks off either. Ya, this was my first and probably last visit. Granted, the miso was off the hook and Bryan did a great job taking care of us but everything else was a flop. The sushi rice had no acidity to it. The ingredients were cheap. The owner came up and lost her lid on my friend cause he wanted no rice (sashimi style) with a few of his choices. "We have to charge you more". I guess they serve bigger slices of fish if you order it sashimi style. But why couldn't you have just given him the smaller pieces of fish that you serve for ayce? Why make it a big deal? I thought that was so unprofessional as an owner, to come up all aggressively and make it feel like you're trying to rip them off. All cause he didn't want rice. My aunt and uncle first of all took pride in their product so we would never do all you can eat. Second, no rice? No problem! You actually got an extra slice of fish if you didn't want the rice. Why make a fuss over something so simple? I have yet to find a sushi joint up meets all my of my expectations. I have found couple places in town that are decent but they have not made me crave it so bad that I needed it again. Sushi Ya is basic and overpriced. It's cool I got to try it but I'll pass on the next invite.

Parking was easy (big lot), and when we walked in, the conveyor bar wasn't too busy and the food was already making its way around. We usually order a roll right away when we go out for sushi, but here you can sit down and start grabbing plates right off the belt, which was super fun. They don't have a liquor license, but they do offer beers. Each plate comes with 3 pieces, so it's easy to try a bunch of different rolls without overdoing it. We even asked the sushi chef what was coming next and they were super friendly. If it were a little busier, I think the belt would stay even more full, but everything we had was fresh, tasty, and great quality. Overall, a really fun experience, over all I think we spent roughly $70 for two people, all the sushi, two miso soups, and two beers (1 large beer) which is on point what we usually spend when we go out for sushi. We'll definitely be back!

For this style of sushi, it delivers. Service was friendly and attentive. Staff checked in regularly and were quick to help with special orders or questions.

You cannot reasonably keep every option circulating if there are fewer diners, and made to order options help fill the gaps. Overall, good sushi, good service, and a fun experience.

However, once I paid my bill, it felt like I wasn't even there anymore. They may have just gotten too busy to check on me or say goodbye. The bathrooms were clean, but I did notice several straw wrappers on the dining room floor. Other than that, the restaurant was pretty clean.

The burritos are not what you think. They're wraps stuffed with different types of fish, tuna, salmon, yellowtail, eel, crab and different fillings bound together by seaweed. Kristy and I weren't sure what to expect, not having seen the menu beforehand. We were pleasantly surprised to see they also have poke bowls. That's what we ordered. They make it simple by allowing you to pick what kind of fish you want -- two scoops for a small bowl and three for a regular. Go with one kind or choose two or three different ones. Add that to sushi or white rice, mixed greens or half and half. You then choose as many extras as you want, from a seaweed salad to avocado, cucumber, mango, crispy onions, furnace and several other choices. The next step is adding a sauce. I chose a house poke sauce and eel sauce (despite the name it doesn't contain eel; it's a thickened mixture of soy sauce, mixing wine and sugar). I had them put in side containers. My bowl contained tuna and yellowtail, sushi rice, mango, green onions, furnace, crispy onions and tempura crunch. Kristy got a similar bowl, with tuna and shrimp. Both were excellent. The fish was fresh and melted well with the other ingredients. Umai has only been opened a short time but they did a nice job and we look forward to returning.

We started with Chicken Karrage, then ordered some Signature Sushi Rolls. I went with the Keiko roll, even though I was a bit concerned about the spice (I asked them to take out the jalapeños).

We asked to speak to the manager and she confirmed that we only have a certain amount of time for our table "per the reservation policy". She then offered to move us to another area. We didn't. She then informed us that she was going to re-read the reservation policy, to see what the customer sees when they make the reservation. That famous policy never mentioned the 90 minutes allotted for each table, I have since checked. It's clear that they care more about turning the tables over as many times as possible than making sure the customers are having an enjoyable dining experience. We are never going back.
