We did All You Can Eat Sushi for lunch at the Sushi Ai location in Clayton! There's paid street parking available nearby, and usually a wait to get in. We waited about 30-40 mins for a table, but it was well worth the wait! We started off with Miso Soup, Crab Rangoon, and Pork Gyoza - all delicious! We then went straight into enjoying some sushi rolls: I loved the Jalapeno Roll (spicy), Crab Tempura Roll (creamy coconut sauce), and shrimp tempura roll (fresh). We also got fried Rolls: STL & Philly. And the Volcano Roll (spicy). Honestly all were delicious! Our waitress was very nice and asked if we needed anything and was very welcoming to additional orders. It took a while for our orders to come out, so I'd have your next paper ready to go so you don't fill up quickly haha. Also the fried Oreos here are AMAZING! They even make it look like sushi hahah. So enjoyable and what a blast with friends! Come hungry, leave happy! read more

I really like coming here for AYCE sushi. Loved the variety of nigiri and appetizer. Lunch is $14.99 & dinner is $23.99. You can't beat that price anywhere else IMO. Although the fish aren't fresh, they taste better than most al la carte sushi restaurants in the Midwest. Service is really good. I can't remember who our server was. Stephen? We came in during busy hours, but he really took great care of us. Came by often to see if we needed anything else and was very attentive. I am giving this a place a four because the place is a bit dirty. The floor is sticky. The restaurant is dark. And you leave smelling like a smoke because it is next to a cigar store. read more

While I would say that the rolls are likely the most popular items at sushi, AI, I really think that you get the highest quality with their Nigiri. That mixed with a few key appetizers such as their pork gyoza or crab Rangoon really makes for a nice meal. The service was pretty good, but for a restaurant where you write down everything you want and they deliver a paper to the kitchen, I think it could be a little bit faster. They also do not have fountain soda which is unfortunate. I did enjoy the ambience, although the tables are slightly too close together. read more

Had a wonderful dining experience here! We came for all you can eat sushi. The inside was very nicely decorated with Asian decor. It's a bit of a small place but still cute and cozy. It's super easy to order- you just fill out a card with what you want and your server takes it. They had a ton of delicious sides that were included in the AYCE. We had potstickers, crab Rangoon, and fried oreo, all delicious. There were a few more options like ginger salad and miso soup. The lunch menu is smaller than the dinner menu, which has more specialty rolls, but for the price, I think it's very worth it with plenty of options to choose from. We had so much sushi it's hard to remember which rolls were which but here's a breakdown of a few I remember: Snow White roll- this one was a pleasant surprise! It's topped with what I think was a crab/cream cheese mixture but the mixture was sweet. I loved it. Sweet potato roll- I think this one is just sweet potato but there was something crunchy in there for added texture. Nothing special but good for a vegetarian option Fried St. Louis roll- good, but I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese so I can't say much A few people in our party didn't like sushi but they were still able to order from the regular menu, and got salmon/chicken teriyaki skillets, which came sizzling on a big skillet. Couldn't recommend this place enough! read more

I love this place so much. I went for lunch and dinner last week and have enjoyed the experience immensely. It's a StL classic for a reason! The choice between the combo deals and unlimited are great and, honestly, the combo deals are often the better deal. The unlimited is fun to take on with friends. Some of the rolls I felt were less fresh, so there were some real standouts. The jalapeño roll and Vegetable Tempura were so good! I find Vegetable Tempura is hit and miss at a lot of places because some don't cook the veggies enough or overcook them. After eating many orders, I can say Sushi AI makes them perfectly every time. For me, the Spicy Tuna Roll was a miss. The texture was extremely off putting. The crispy St. Louis Roll was great though. Like many other reviewers, I'm a bit dissatisfied that this location is next to a smoke shop. It's an unfortunate scent in a restaurant. read more

Terrible service. On more than a few occasions have been seated, just to not even get water or any- LITERALLY ANY- interaction from servers. Sat at table at 3 pm on a Sunday for 18 minutes while customers who got there well after us were attended to by MULTIPLE other servers and staff. Second occasion where we had to leave and were never even served food due to not getting checked in on whatsoever after being shown our seats. Couldn't have lower recommendations for a fast food restaurant, let alone a place that is supposed to have convenient dine-in sushi. If I could leave .5 stars I would. read more

You should check this place out if you're looking for a solid sushi restaurant in a great location! My partner and I had a wonderful dinner experience. Sushi Ai in Clayton has very attentive staff. My partner drinks a lot of water & his glass was never empty, the staff was great about filling it up! There were a good number of other patrons, but the volume of the restaurant never got too loud. The all you can eat sushi & appetizer dinner deal is such a great way to eat well at an affordable price ($23.99). We enjoyed numerous appetizers (we ordered the crab rangoon & ika yaki twice) & rolls (the St. Louis roll is very good in my opinion). If you come on a nice day, they add some seating out front which could be a great way to enjoy your meal. My partner and I had a window seat & enjoyed people watching with our dinner. read more

We had our prom dinner here and it was so amazing! Thank you to our quick waitress for the service and kindess!

I ordered the lunch combo. The pork gyoza, crab sushi, fried st louis roll, and spicy tuna roll. For the price, I thought the combo was decently priced. I really enjoyed my meal. I wasn't much a fan of the fried St. louis, sometimes fried sushi is always a hit or miss for me. The service was great, and my waiter updated me about the length of time before my food was out. They were busy for lunch, but I had no issues getting seated. Side note: I forgot my credit card at the restaurant. Didn't realize it until 3 days later, and the staff kept it safe. I really appreciated it. read more

Went with a friend for the dinner $23.99 all you can eat sushi. It was a great deal that I will be coming back for. The all you can eat included appetizers, soup/salad, and numerous rolls. Each roll typically ranged from 4-6 pieces in roll which allows you to try a lot of different sushi before being full. We ordered a round of appetizers and two rounds of sushi, the waiting staff allows you to dine at your own pace which is nice. Our waitress consistently checked in on us and wondered if we needed more, while consistently clearing the table of completed dishes. The restaurant isn't very big so a line was starting outside of the restaurant as we were leaving (very small waiting area inside)--I presume peak dining hours can get pretty busy. Nothing fancy but a cozy ambiance: what you would typically expect for this type of restaurant. read more

Sushi Ai - All you can eat menu - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clayton, Missouri

This business has a major issue with cleanliness and cross contamination that can't be ignored. I ordered vegetarian sushi, and what I got was the most disgusting, disappointing, sushi I've ever had in all my years being vegan. The sushi chef that prepared my food couldn't be bothered to clean or change their sushi mat between orders, which is absolutely disgusting. Every single piece of my vegetarian sushi was covered in bits of crab meat and fish eggs due to the chef's lack of care and concern. Thankfully, DoorDash issued me a full refund, but I will never order from or eat here ever again. Management, please address these issues so no one else has to go through this again. read more

Had a wonderful all you can eat experience. Server was very nice and it didn't take long for us to receive our food after we put our orders in. The sushi was good and it was a very affordable price for being able to order so much. It was fun they included appetizers and desserts in the all you can eat so my group was able to try a wide variety of things. All the staff was very attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was pleasant. Keep in mind what it is - if you're looking for a place to get the highest quality sushi this is probably not the place, but the food was still very enjoyable, cheap, and we had a great time. read more

Our host from our party of 9 made a reservation but when we arrived learned that they didn't reserve us a space and we had to wait 30 minutes to get a table. It was packed. After this rough start, we had great food here tonight. Jalapeño rolls with spicy sesame sauce became one of my favorites. First time at this location and I know their St. Charles location is very good too and it is bigger with cozy atmosphere. We had dinner combo, and I think All You Can Eat is a better deal, we'd like to do next time and Sake Bomb is a fun entertainment! read more

In a time when all you can eat seems like higher pricing for quality that I would say is good, (or just short of good) When I went to Sushi Ai, the quality was very good. The flavors were very good, and the pricing, was very fair. Service was great, the ambiance was good, better than most all you can eat places I had been to. I like the concept, I hope it doesn't change, Better than good quality food, better than good service, for a pretty fair price,(maybe a bit better than fair price) Great food Good service Good price I enjoyed it, and would eat here again. 4 stars is a pretty solid rating. read more

Always pleased with our experiences here whether in the restaurant or takeout. Drinks at the restaurant are unique and delicious. Service and atmosphere is always busy, yet you're able to enjoy. I personally love smelling the cigar shop next door on my way in! read more

Loved the combination of sashimi, sushi, and kimbap in my meal. The fish was fresh and flavorful, and the sushi rolls had the perfect texture.

A few of us stopped by sushi ai for the lunch buffet on a Monday around noon. We were seated pretty quickly, and our waiter was very friendly and quick to take our orders. We all chose to do the AYCE instead of the lunch deal, but for the price (around $14 pre tax) it's a great deal either way. I especially enjoy the vegetable tempura and gyoza appetizers. I ended up getting three rolls and some nigiri-- I liked the salmon nigiri the most out of all the types I got. My brother and friend also enjoyed both of their meals as well. For St. Louis sushi options, the price and quantity of food is pretty worth it! The only bad thing about this location is that it's right next door to a cigarette shop and can often smell pretty strongly of smoke, depending on the day and where you sit. read more

We go once a month to get the all you can eat dinner and it is such a good deal--$24 a person and many apps are included as well as fried oreos for dessert which are a must!! I love anything with tuna so the Mountain roll and spicy tuna roll are two of my favorites. I also love the shrimp tempura roll, it has eel sauce on top which who doesn't love! The service is quick but not too quick so you don't feel rushed. There is a 2 hour limit for dinner but that is always plenty of time for us. The restaurant isn't too loud even though it's normally pretty busy at night. read more

Real close to county courts where doing jury duty. Small but tasty. I had a few rolls. Their lunch special is great deal.

Favorite sushi place in St. Louis! The All You Can Eat Sushi option is such a great deal. The lunch option is a better deal, but has a more limited menu, but as a pretty indecisive person, sometimes I prefer having less options actually! However, the dinner price for All You Can Eat is still a really reasonable deal. The sushi is fresh and tasty, but don't forget to load up on appetizers as they make the whole meal in my opinion. The Clayton location is much cozier than the downtown location, but it does tend to get busier and loud quickly on the weekends. Overall, if you love sushi, trying different rolls, and a great deal, then Sushi Ai is the place to be! read more

My friend and I were in town for a conference and were craving sushi. Happy we found this spot! They had all you can each sushi or three types of sushi combos for $23.99. I chose to do the sushi combo A, which was 1 app, 4 sushi's (nigiri) and 3 sushi rolls. Safe to say it was more than enough food and it was pretty good! Sushi rice was the perfect portion to fish, and rolls were packed. Also, drinks were good but nothing grand. Cute spot with lots of seatings inside and out. Our server also was extremely helpful and kind. read more

Probably the least best sushi ai in missouri. I took my girlfriend out to enjoy some sushi, when I came into the establishment it was loud and packed, and flies where constantly landing on you or near you. I greeted the hostess just for them to ignore me and speak to my girlfriend instead. I didnt think much of it until we were seated and when the waitress came by she didn't even speak to me nor look in my direction but only to my girlfriend. Anyway when we got the food i feel i should say this, i have tried sushi ai in various locations around Missouri this was my first time here. I get the exact same thing each time but this time the only thing on my plate that didnt have an overwhelming umami taste was the salmon nigiri lol and all i got was tuna. I usually do about two or three plates of sushi but i couldn't stomach the taste after one i tipped even tho the service wasn't servicing but hey maybe it will be better somewhere else.

I frequently visit this location. Very friendly staff, simple seating and ordering. Love the vibe. All-you-can-eat dine-in special is my go-to. 10/10 recommend the St Louis roll. Only gripe is it's kind of small and can be VERY busy at times. And the sushi combo is not available for online ordering. You have to order at base price online or call in your order for the combo. read more

I will always love coming back to this place, the all you can eat sushi is SO worth it! Our server was really sweet and nice, and the food came out quickly despite how busy they were on a Tuesday night. The workers were always taking dirty plates off of our table and others which I was very impressed on, because it was not even our server half of the time! Only reason 4/5 was that some of the rolls were so sloppily put together than they were already fall apart before they even reached our table. Will still come back though! read more

Sushi Ai is a great place to try when you're craving sushi! We love to order the "all you can eat" option. When you order this to go you get 3 rolls of your choice, 4 pieces of sushi and 1 appetizer. It's a lot of food for as much as you may spend on 1-2 rolls alone at another sushi place. We split this deal between two people and it's more than enough! For the appetizer we switch between crab rangoon and the homemade gyoza. Both are really good. We like to switch up the rolls we pick, but we ALWAYS get Crazy Spicy Crab Roll. So much crab meat, and the special sauce is delicious (it's similar to a spicy Mayo). Sushi Ai May not have the best sushi you've ever had - but it's delicious and at the price it can't be beat. read more

Bomb. Ordered to-go on a brief stint in the area. I had the "Fried Philadelphia Roll" and the "Jalapeño Roll". Both solid and went well together. I would recommend calling in, the place is small and was pretty packed. But fortunately, I was able to pick up from the pick-up window and everything needed, chopsticks, soy...etc. was all in the bag. Would frequent when in the area again. It's also good to see diversity blending into the Clayton...always felt like a sheet of paper. read more
