I've been wanted to try this place again and when I found out they had 12 dollar rolls to go if you…read morecall them directly I basically RAN there! 12 dollar rolls are a very good deal considering most place have them for 17+ typically speaking. The staff was very very friendly the short time I was there and answered some questions I had. I inquired about what the difference between their regular AYCE and their Premium version... if you like sashimi that would be perfect for you since it's included for the premium... if you mainly just like rolls the regular would suit you just fine. The decoration inside the restaurant is cute especially since it's literally on the BLVD... you almost feel like you are somewhere else than south street . Now for the rolls I got... I got the summer roll and seared salmon roll from the fresh roll category. I got one NO RICE roll which I love to end on a lighter note than the ones with rice that one is called south st roll and it was very flavorful as were the other ones. Everything felt extremely fresh and I will be back for this special and on days I feel I'm starving enjoy the AYCE aspect of the restaurant. All in all AMAZING STUFF UMI! Thanks!

I'd rate this place a solid 3.8/4. Pros:…read more * The food came out relatively quickly. * The fish tasted fresh, and the ingredients matched the menu photos. * I really appreciate that they clearly label which rolls contain spicy mayo or are considered spicy. As someone who can't handle spice at all, that made ordering so much easier. * Biggest pro: They give you FREE matcha ice cream at the end, and it was delicious! Cons: * This is not the place for a nice date night. It was incredibly loud with kids screaming and running around the restaurant. * Even though it wasn't very busy, the service was lacking. I'd recommend ordering everything you might need (extra sauce, lemons, napkins, etc.) as soon as you sit down because once your food is dropped off, it's difficult to get anyone's attention. We were never checked on or asked if we needed anything else. * This has nothing to do with the food, but bring a jacket! The A/C was blasting--it honestly felt like it was set to 62°. As for the sushi itself, I thought it was decent, but the rolls were a little lacking in flavor. The sauces really carried most of them, though that's just my personal preference. Overall, I'd definitely come back, especially if the waitlists at other AYCE sushi spots are hours long. If you're looking for good, all-you-can-eat sushi without a crazy wait, this place gets the job done. It may not be the most memorable sushi you'll ever have, but it's a great local spot that delivers on the essentials. paid $84 for two AYCE so $$$

Sake 2 Me Sushi in Cerritos is one of the very few AYCE sushi restaurants that I'll entertain. The…read morewait time is atrocious and they're even more strict about having your entire party present to be seated, but the food is delicious. They have a touch screen tablet available for you to place your orders at your table and there's a timed dining limit. I usually don't have that issue when I go with just my sister or a small group, but I can see it being a challenge for larger parties, so I recommend thinking about your game plan accordingly. Their riceless are yummy and their butter pepper salmon + shrimp nigiri are my favorite. I can easily put away a few plates of those on my own, especially because they use minimal rice for nigiri here. I also love their tuna crunchy rice, but I don't know if they serve that dish anymore, unfortunately. Their appetizers like takoyaki, miso soup, shisito peppers, and spicy garlic edamame are also the bee's knees!

Gave Mom a few options: Japanese, Vietnamese or Italian food for lunch?…read more She went for Japanese. "I haven't had Japanese curry in awhile." Great choice, because like her, been a minute since I've had that, too! We were about 20 minutes away, so I jumped on the Yelp waitlist (just to make sure we were seated ASAP since we were hangry!) Luckily, plenty of tables open when we arrived so we were seated immediately. I got the chance to look at their menu beforehand so I had an idea what I wanted. Mom went for what her palate desired. While waiting, we noticed their "Buy a beer, sake or soju, get a secret menu item for free" sign. (Mondays to Thursdays only.) We were curious, so, why not. It's a nicely decorated restaurant, almost as if we were transported somewhere in Japan for a meal. (I've never been, but I imagine the decor is close.) Didn't notice any clutter or mess. Floors were clean. Always a plus! CORN TEMPURA: This was the secret menu that went with the beer. Honestly, I am not a fan of corn kernels, but tried it anyway. Flavor of the batter was tasty enough to overcome that corn essence, so it worked out well for me. (I'm sure corn fans would disagree.) I only took two small bites, though, because the corn flavor started coming through more than I preferred. But not bad for a freebie! SOFT SHELLED CRABS: Deep fried, a must-have whenever I see it on the menu. Made to order HOT, batter was thin enough so it doesn't overwhelm the crabs' overall flavor. This was PERFECT. It didn't need the dip, it was great as it was. Great crisp, great flavor, RECOMMENDING. SPANISH MACKEREL: Also a must-have whenever I see it on a Japanese restaurant's menu. Good salt and vinegar level with a very tiny hint of sweet. Fish was fresh. Another good starter and palate cleanser. BENTO BOX LUNCH: I chose the pork cutlet with 2 sides: calamari and shrimp with vegetable tempura and although it already came with katsu sauce, I too, asked for a side of curry sauce (for a teenee upcharge.) I was a bit overwhelmed when my box arrived since I didn't account for the soup and the salad that went with it - it was a ton of food! Salad was fresh with good amount of Japanese dressing. Miso soup was hot and seasoned perfect. Tempura shrimp (2pcs) was a bit undercooked, but not raw, still delicious. Tempura vege was perfect. Rice was warm and fluffy. They gave a generous amount of calamari that I thought they messed up and gave us a full order vs. a side. Not only is it a lot, it's delicious. Good crisp, good chew, great flavor. I loved loved LOVED my bento box! Mom also enjoyed her brewski and her pork cutlet curry. As mentioned earlier, they are generous with their servings so we had plenty of leftovers for a second meal. (I ended up sharing it with Hubbers who enjoyed it as well.) FOOD: 5. We liked everything. SERVICE: 5. Jasmine was perfect - friendly, service with a smile, she was available when needed even after it got crowded. She was efficient with her time and made sure she gave every table the attention it required and deserved. VALUE: 5. Quality and quantity. More than worth it! PARKING: Private lot shared with others. Not an issue when we came through on mid-week lunch rush. OVERALL: 5. They are popular - most of the tables were occupied by the time we left. Good for them. Hubbers liked our takeout so much and said I should take him there sometime. The answer to that, of course, is a definite: YES. Looking forward to that second visit.

Love coming here! I've been back quite a few times since my last update, and it's nice to see that…read morethe service has continued to improve. I'm also glad, but maybe just a little sad, to see that the restaurant has become more popular. On some visits, there's now a short wait 1-2 parties, and sometimes, there is even 5 parties, which is great for them... but it probably means I'll have to start waiting longer in the future! The staff is still friendly and accommodating. Every now and then, there might be a small mix-up with an order, but they've always been quick to fix it, and it's never been a big issue. I usually visit either before 5 p.m. or after 8 p.m., so I can typically avoid the dinner rush and get seated without much of a wait. The sushi is still consistently fresh, and that's one of the main reasons I keep coming back. Even during busier visits, the quality has stayed the same, and the food comes out at a good pace without feeling rushed or overwhelming the table all at once. Overall, it's great to see this place continuing to improve while maintaining the quality that made me a regular in the first place. I'll definitely keep coming back!

First time trying this place cause we've sworn off Aiken. Kids absolutely loved it…read more They only have a premium option but it was $35 so not the priciest we've seen. Biggest con is that my 8 and 9 year old count as adults cause of their height. Otherwise, this place has an amazing array of sushi and other foods. Nigiri was a decent size. Not huge but at least not the thimble size pieces at some places. They have noodle and rice options and spam musubi which was the biggest deal for my kids. They have a list of premium items that you only get to order one per person. Although they weren't mind blowing, it was pretty good. Service was great. We regularly received water refills, plates cleaned up and our food came out pretty quickly. Interior was open but if you sit in the middle tables you're right next to the other table. They have a little partition but you can hear all of their conversation. I'm sure this place will become packed but when we went on a Friday evening, there was no wait so 10/10 for that.
