    Sometimes you need to pig out and this AYCE spot serves that purpose. The cheapest value is their weekday lunch, but we opted for a weekend lunch (dinner pricing all day) which had more options. --The good: Grilled chicken and beef, calamari, chashu ramen. --The meh: Sushi rolls were bit too heavy and dense, stir fried noodles bland, Thai iced tea watered down. --The bad: Siu mai was the frozen kind, karaage and tonkatsu dry, most of the complimentary hot bar items were flavorless. Ordering was easy enough via the table QR code. Half the service is friendly, the other half is very quiet. They have ordering limitations so coming with bigger groups doesn't seem to be the most feasible way to max out things if everybody is hungry.

    Great sashimi

    Ok, as some of the other reviews recommend, check the waitlist prior to arriving. I ignored the recommendation and had to wait 30 minutes. As for the food, i have mixed feelings. I thought the sushi was perfect for an AYCE, not the best in the world, but definitely good. My issue was with all the non sushi items. The NY steak was the toughest NY steak I've ever had. Same goes for the ribs. The ramen was fine but every other non sushi meat dishes were so tough or soggy (oily wet tempera). Even katsu was tough. I channeled the inner Asian in me and ate them all so i wouldn't end up with a fine but i would only get sushi here.

    Lunch review only. Stopped by for a weekday lunch due to great value (around $20 for silver and $25 for gold tier). We were lucky and snagged some street parking right in front. Tiny location but we were able to snag some seats. I would say that for a sushi place, the sushi menu is somewhat limited but again, it is what you pay for. There are some drinks including thai tea and fruit tea that is a wonderful option and makes the value even better. There is a small hot/cold bar while you wait for your ordering selections (you order on an ipad and I believe you can only order every 15 minutes or so?). They had a variety of different options including soups (like ramen and udon), grilled items, appetizers, salads that are all good portion sizes (small enough that you can try several different things). Ramen was OK, I enjoyed the small salads, drinks and sushi roll fish quality was good (rice ratio was a little high but reasonable). We didn't feel the need to gorge ourselves and got to try some random things like dumplings and salad given the reasonable price point and I ended up satisfied with my meal. It's not the highest quality and the option list isn't the most expansive, but a very reasonable place that I enjoyed.

    This place is all hype. The sushi was nothing special below average at best. The cucumber was old and soggy, which definitely didn't help. They also automatically add a 12% gratuity regardless of party size. Overall, the food just doesn't live up to the hype. The inside is small, and tables are packed so closely together that it feels like you're sitting on top of the people next to you. DO NOT BUY INTO THE HYPE.

    Titanic Salmon Sushi Box

    The Titanic Salmon Sushi boxes are incredible. Each piece is so buttery and delicious. The price is very good considering the size and the quality of the nigiri. I bet each one is equal to four normal sized nigiri! I got super full off of three pieces. The presentation is also very nice. I would highly recommend!

    Wowww! I came here on a whim because I was waiting for my friend to get his car fixed. This was the first thing that popped up close to me. I wasn't sure if this was a place where you go order upfront and sit, or a restaurant. After I was seated I was informed this was all you can eat and you use your phone to order. There's a 90min time limit and you can order a max of 15 items at a time. The prices here are CRAZY. It's $20-$23 for lunch and $31-$37 for dinner. I ordered a shrimp tempura which I wasn't expecting much from, but it was pretty good! The tempura was really crispy, the noodles were chewy and they put half of a hard boiled egg in it. I ordered nigiri, rolls, and hand rolls and WOW I was surprised at the quality.. the fish was really fresh, they used real crab in the rolls. Since they make it once you order this place beats conveyor belts by far in terms of quality. I think if I ordered everything I ate here over closer to downtown or Bellevue it'd easily be around $60. It's crazy that it was only $37.. and that I could order much more?! Unfortunately I wasn't that hungry so I only ordered one round. They also have a salad and fried bar that you can self serve with miso soup that looked decent. I didn't try any of it, so can't compliment on the quality... But see my photos and remember I got this all for $37!!!! Id definitely come back for sure.

    Great place to grab sushi around Seattle. The pieces are huge for a great price. The salmon was a bit too tough and chewy for me. Good flavor and sauce though. I'd come back and try their AYCE.

    Very impressed by the quality of fish for an all you can eat spot! And also very appreciative of the appetizer/boba tea bar. We did the gold for lunch on a weekend which ended up being about $40 per person, which is a little expensive but I think was worth it for the amount of sashimi we ordered. I also was pleasantly surprised by the beef udon and tataki. Super quick bringing out the sushi as well and did not notice a smell that was mentioned in other reviews.

    An AYCE sushi place with very good prices and quality. We can in for lunch and the staff quickly explained how things work. You order via your phone and you can put in 15 ordere every 15 minute. You get 1.5 hours and they do charge for leftover food. We essentially only did one round of 15 orders cause we weren't too starved but still really enjoyed everything we ordered. The ingredients were fresh. Every dish was made to order and came out warm. The variety of rolls and dishes was great too. I can see filling up the whole time with delicious food. A super fun, economical spot for a group!

    Miso and mix of mango and lychee tea with boba
    Diana C.

    We went for dinner and did the silver option (about $30 pp). The gold is about $5 more pp. the major difference is gold includes sashimi and a few more premium items like steak and an eel hand roll for the dinner menu options. The silver menu includes all the regular sushi and rolls outside of 1-2 hand rolls as well as some soups (udon, ramen), salads, rice bowls, appetizers, and tempura. The food comes out quite quickly and the staff are very helpful. There's a hot and cold bar with things like noodles, salad, and tempura and a self-serve boba bar (2 fruit tea and 1 milk tea option with toppings in the cold bar). Overall it's a good price for 90 minutes and ordering up to 15 items every 15 minutes. The quality of the sushi, including ratio of rice and non-seafood filling was maybe 4/5 stars, but overall fine. It was pretty empty around 4:30 when we arrive but by 5:30 when we were leaving it was packed. They have lots of tables packed fairly close together and when it got a little too bright from the sun they lowered the blinds which was nice. If you're looking for a deal, this is a good choice. If you're looking for big sushi selection or super premium quality sushi, then maybe not. Overall a good crowd pleaser, especially if you've got some folks in your group who aren't big sushi fans but are still hungry.

    Love that they brought Sumo to U District! They have a variety of sushi, sashimi, grilled, and deep fried options. The price for dinner is $32.95, which isn't too bad. They also have self serve boba with different toppings!! The ordering system is a little finicky and we thought we wouldn't have enough time to order but 15 items every 15 minutes does add up. They also have a hot bar but nothing was fresh when we went, so we skipped it.

    Gold ayce menu items
    Mei W.

    We decided to go for the gold ayce menu since there was a lot of better items that we wanted to try out. Everything was delicious and service was pretty fast! The items that we don't recommend getting are the karaage chicken and shao mao, but everything else was great! Their food bar and boba station was great as well (with three different drink flavors to choose from: lychee, Thai tea, and strawberry). My daughter really liked the bbq chicken on the skewer from the bar! They have a free membership you can join so you can get points and redeem for free stuff. The first order gives you 10% off! I'll definitely come back again. :)

    Good to have an AYCE sushi place in Seattle, but if you have the time to make the drive out to the Kent location, would recommend that instead. I came in for AYCE sushi dinner with 2 friends on a Friday night, and there was a bit of a wait. Figuring out the whole waitlist situation was a bit messy - there didn't seem to be a clear process and we had to flag a staff member down to ask. There also isn't a lot of space for you to wait in the restaurant - luckily we had parked right outside so we were able to avoid the cold. After a bit of a wait, we were finally able to get seated. Ordering is done through phone. I believe there's a cap of 15 items every 15 minutes. My friends and I ordered an assortment of different sashimi, nigiri, rolls, as well as some of the hot items. Overall takeaway was that the quality of items at the Sumo location in Kent is much better. The sushi rice seemed low key undercooked and definitely under-seasoned, to the extent that we didn't really want to eat it. Service was okay, but they're definitely very busy. The one thing that was different about this location compared to Kent is that they also serve sukiyaki, which seemed to be a popular option among the other guests. Maybe we should've done that instead of sushi? I'll be saving myself the trouble of going here next time and heading to another location instead.

The Chinese name, 全記麵家, has little to do with the name Mike, but is nevertheless an excellent choice for anyone in the area. The staff is very Cantonese through and through. It is a cash only establishment and their menu is heavy on the noodles, be it in soup form or dry. There isn't a ton of room for large groups, but the turnover is quick and thus the weights are usually quite minimal. Service is very good overall and super friendly. I would highly not recommend using their bathroom, as it's tiny, cramped, and not in the best condition. The noodle soups vary from wonton noodles to fishballs. They also specialize in beef brisket and fishballs, making this feel like a bit of a Hong Kong style cafe. Most of the soups average out to be $14-16, depending on size. It's a joy to watch them assemble the bowls in lightning quick fashion. Wontons are excellent. They're plump with just enough skin for texture and are complemented by a fragrant soup and very little skimpage on the noodle (#1). The large dumpling (aka "sui kau") is an excellent wonton alternative for those looking for similar textures. The beef brisket is tender and they also have a dedicated section for just congee. There aren't a lot of places like Mike's anymore, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second for an opportunity to come back. In fact, I'll make sure it's part of the Seattle rotation (#2) for whenever I'm back. __________ (#1) Read: very good portions. (#2) Unless of course, I'm on my way to Vancouver BC.

Good noodles, good chashu, and delicious broth on their "Original" ramen (which is pretty much Tonkotsu, I think). It's lacking in nothing. I also appreciate the way they structure the menu: most toppings are optional (like egg and seaweed) in exchange for a modest base price. Yet even when you add stuff back in, the sum is still reasonable, e.g. with added seaweed and a shot of extra noodles, my bowl came out right around $20 after tax/tip. Service is quick and courteous. This place has only one problem: the wait is damn eternal. I waited 50+ minutes, and the only reason I got in that _fast_ was because I came solo and qualified for counter seating. The couple ahead of me in line waited at least 90... and this was on a Monday! But that's hardly the restaurant's fault.

This place is a true gem, serving satisfying, delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere at an affordable price.

Tables are mostly four tops, quite spacious at that, and surrounded by sturdy wooden chairs. I came for dinner on a Friday evening and there were a few other tables at any given time. Service was quick and our water never ran empty. We had the wontons in hot oil, topped with peanuts, I had the beef chow fun, and my dinner buddy had the pork with hot sauce noodles. The wontons are very very good, stuffed with flavorful pork and swimming in a sauce that sits in that perfect spot at the intersection of hot and sour. The peanuts and scallions add a delightful crunch. Their beef chow fun satisfies every bit of childhood nostalgia I have for this dish, with lots of wok hei, bouncy noodles, and the most tender of beef. I think my favorite beef chow fun in the city still lives at A+ Hong Kong Kitchen, but this is a close second. The portion here is also huge. I am a human vacuum and I actually brought leftovers home, which is rare for me. The pork with hot sauce noodles is seemingly a fusion of zha jiang mian and dan dan noodles. My friend really enjoyed it and actually finished the whole thing, which is saying something given that she doesn't usually eat that much. There are so many other items on the menu that I'm eager to try, so I will definitely be back.
