Got seated right away, server was nice but inattentive. I ordered 3 diff type of sushi rolls on their ayce menu. Sushi tastes NOT fresh at all. You can tell by the color of the tuna, it's dull, the flavor tastes rancid, sushi rice is hard, the yakisoba is oily and tastes bad also, like something is rotten, broccoli tempura is undercooked and bitter. They charge for "leftovers" fee so beware. read more

Sushi King - Yakisoba, vegetable tempura, and whatever sushi it was - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

This AYCE sushi joint is testament to the unequivocal truth that quality & quantity can in fact coexist.. Albeit rarely but it's possible. In other words, the food here is surprisingly good and since it's all you can eat, you can definitely have your fill. For $ 16.99 ALL DAY Centerville Sushi King is cheaper than its other AYCE counterparts around the area. For what it's worth ... It's worth every cent. (Favorite things to order: Jalapeño Yellowtail app, Pepper Steak Tuna app, Tempura Shrimp Udon, & Salmon Sushi) The presentation of the food is most definitely not consistent but the food is consistently good. Also the service is among the best of the best. This restaurant has some of the best servers I've ever had. This sushi king is pretty big and I've gotten a different server every single time I've dined here but my experience with them has always been extremely pleasant and memorable nonetheless. The staff here is truly wonderful. The only thing that really bothers me here is the smell of bleach that seems to permeate the place every single time I visit and sometimes the seats feel sticky. It changes nothing though. Honestly, this isn't just my favorite AYCE sushi restaurant but my favorite sushi joint around the area in general. Sushi in general is pricey but I always feel as if I'm getting my money's worth (if not more) whenever I eat at this Sushi King. read more

Up, up and buffet! I love all the nuanced flavors and high attention to detail of Sushi Capitol but there are other times when I just want to stuff my face with cream cheese and avocado laden rolls without paying a hefty price. Sushi King is the answer! This is a place that pleases Americanized-Japanese food lovers on a budget of all ages. $16.99 gets you an unlimited supply of miso soup, seaweed salad, and made-to-order rolls! Here you don't have to worry about people sneezing all over your spicy tuna rolls because everything you order is prepared to your specification in their open air kitchen. For those who want to try all of their roll concoctions, you can even order half orders so you don't waste anything. I went with the Santos clan and it looks like the table favorites were: + Hibachi Steak Fried Rice - We were surprised by how tender the steak was and they even offered to do double meat with every order. + Mini Corn Dogs - For the kiddos, but the adults could not help but nibble on this carnival favorite. + Yellowtail tuna carpaccio + Avocado Salad + Volcano Rolls, Crazy Monkey Roll, Spider Roll and Sea Angel Roll The next week, the boy and I went to get sushi and paid $14.99 for one Spider Roll. Sushi King was sorely missed immediately. Manage your expectations and wear stretchy pants and you will be a happy camper! read more

Ummmm, no. I like that they have a little appetizer salad bar, a freezer of individually packed ice cream, and that the sushi is made to order. The staff was very nice too. However, the sushi was more rice than anything. I left feeling like we ate half a rice-cooker. I'm starting to tire (and be leery) of the AYCE sushi joints, but still would favor Sakura (on Lynnhaven and now across from the Oceana commissary) over any of the places here in HR. read more

Sushi King - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

So when this place first opened, one of my girlfriends and I tried it. It was when they still had "lunch specials" as options, and not just the all-you-can eat buffet. That was a couple years ago, and it was a "so-so" experience. We said we probably would not come back. But when I lived in Richmond, my boyfriend and a few of our friends tried the Sushi King buffet there; (I know they are all the same company), and I was impressed. Everything I ordered tasted great! Fast forward to yesterday, 9/24/2015, we returned to this Kempsville/Centerville location to give it another shot. Now, the only available option for lunch is the all-you-can eat buffet. So that's what we had. The seaweed salad, crab salad, other salads, and soups are now self-serve, at the "buffet bar," but all the sushi and other food is cooked/made to order. I liked the shrimp tempura app and gyoza. Everything else was disappointing - all 3 rolls of sushi that I tried, yikes. I didn't even want to finish them, but didn't want to be charged that extra fee for leaving too much food. The place is still pretty - very pleasing to the eye, but the food, not too pleasing to the mouth. There are definitely better sushi/ayce sushi spots around. read more

Sushi King is a pretty good place for an all you eat sushi for its price... Lunch $11.99, Dinner and Weekends $16.99! I come here a lot with my sister and cousin, they are sushi lovers!! Sushi King has a variety of options not just sushi, which is good for people that don't like sushi much. As appetizers I love and recommend the Shumai, Gyoza, Edamame and Vegetable Tempura! As my entrée, I usually get the Hibachi Steak with extra white sauce (YuM). To be honest I'm not a huge fan of raw sushi, so I usually order the cooked sushi. I love Shrimp Tempura roll, Volcano roll, Spicy California Roll and the Crazy Monkey Roll!! I always ask for spicy mayo sauce too on the side to dip my rolls in, instead of soy sauce. Customer Service is wonderful here, so friendly and attentive! PRO: Food is delicious, and great portions of the entrée dishes! Great service and very clean! CON: Long wait on food sometimes! OVERALL, I like how their is a variety of food to choose from not just sushi and it's an all you can eat for a good price. I recommend this to all sushi and non sushi lovers lol read more

Came here with a friend. Our waiter was top notch and we left a hearty tip. We were provided colorful platters that each exhibited an array of flavor. I went out of my comfort zone and tried new platters, I even asked our waiter what his preference was and even that platter satisfied me fully. Second time here in 2019 in the month of January. Hopefully I get to come back before I leave town! Keep up the great work! read more

Sushi King - Lava roll-front 2 pieces of salmon-middle right 2 pieces of octopus-middle left 3 pieces of eel-back Ginger/Wasabi-side - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Five words: All. You. Can. Eat. Sushi. Not only is the price SUCH a bargain for the portions, Sushi King is not like typical sushi buffets that have the sushi pre-made where you go serve yourself. After you're seated, the servers take your order and the sushi is made fresh and brought out to you as a beautiful presentation. Everything on the menu is fair game for the buffet: appetizers, salad bar, entrees, various sushi rolls, and desserts. The wait in between servings was a bit long at times but that's understandable considering everything is made to order and also depends on how hungry you are and can seem longer than it really is. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm visiting Virginia Beach! read more

I used to be totally against all you can eat sushi places because sushi is all about quality. I felt like there was no way an all you can eat place would be able to provide the same level of quality as a normal made to order sushi restaurant. Sushi King proved me wrong. While I've definitely had better sushi before, I can't deny that for the price, Sushi King is the best way to get your sushi fix. They have a wide variety of both kitchen entrees, sushi rolls, and specialty rolls. They also have varying specials, a salad bar and some selection of desserts. There price has gone up since I first started going here from $10 to now $16. But even with he price increase you still get your money's worth. At traditional sushi places, a 2pc sushi order costs $2. I can eat 14 pieces on my worst day. This would cost me $28 at a normal sushi place compared to $16 at sushi king. And of course I eat much more than that. I really can't justify eating anywhere else for sushi now because I have not found one that is worth the price. I don't mind paying a lot for sushi but I want to be able to taste the quality different if I'm paying that much. In Hampton Roads I just haven't found a place like that yet. I go here quite often and is usually my first pick when I want sushi. I always bring out of town guests here as well. I will say that at certain times orders can take a long time. I feel like they can be understaffed so that can be frustrating sometimes. Overall a good go-to place for all your sushi desires! read more

Sushi King - Salmon sushi, golden lobster roll, and Las Vegas roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

So my boyfriend and I were feeling hefferish last night so we decided to go here. It was my first time; his second time. $15.99 all you can eat? Sure why not! The place is nicely decorated and very spacious! We were welcomed nicely and seated pretty quickly, which was great because we were both really hungry. Our server, Michael, was aight. Either he was speaking too softly/quickly, or I'm just getting old and deaf. I felt rushed to give my order, but the quick arrival of our food made up for it :) 2 orders of gyoza (You get 4 per order. A tad crunchy - just the way I like it. Delicious.) 2 orders of the shrimp tempura (Meh, my boyfriend liked it, but it was whatevs to me. You get 2 per order) 2 orders of the beef fried rice (beef was good, but i felt like something was missing?) 1 order of shrimp fried rice (it's okay) King Roll (pretty good), Las Vegas Roll (meh - the cream cheese saved it), Orchard Roll (yum! the tempura crunchy stuff was awesome), and Volcano Roll (not bad, but not amazing either) 1 order of Beef Yakisoba (oh my goodness gracious, this was delicious. Wish I had more room in my belly to have ordered more!) The menu wasn't too overwhelming (literally one page for food items), and if you have little ones who may be hard to feed, you can order them some chicken nuggets and fries, hehe. There's also a salad bar, soup station, dessert/fruit bar and a freezer filled with ice cream goodness! It's located in a corner, which I had to look for by pretending to look for the bathroom, haha. Boyfriend got salad and we both got miso soup, which wasn't bad! Following our meal, we devoured some pineapple (to help with digestion, woah!) and some raspberry/lemon sherbet. We had to sit in our booth for a good 15 minutes because we couldn't move. Seemed like we came in at a pretty good time on a Friday night because a buttload of people were waiting to be seated. I wouldn't say Sushi King is amazeballs, but for the price, quality of food, and service, it's good. I would come back and take my family next time ... maybe for lunch though because it's cheaper then, haha! read more

Sushi King - Volcano Roll, Las Vegas Roll, Orchard Roll, and King Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Sushi King is relatively new, only 2 months. I am hoping that it only gets better. We have been for lunch and for dinner. The menu is a little limited, but they do have some unusual choices that were excellent. The service is jet fast and friendly. I was disappointed with the boston roll, because to me that is super easy, but everything else was great. Portions of tempura and edamame are excellent. We will definitely go back! I hope that they expand their menu options and include more choices. The inside of the place is beautiful and excellent. read more

So I went here for lunch today solo. I had the hunger for sushi but not wanting to spend a fortune. The main thing with this place is value. For 16$ (Tip included) and drink. You can't deny the value per dollar of this place. I easily ordered around 10 items. Which would have been around 60$ in most places. Is it mind blowing amazing sushi? No, is it crappy super market plastic container sushi? No it's not that either. It's in the middle and that's not a bad thing. This is the kind of place you want to go when you want to order a lot of sushi and just stuff yourself silly but not pay the usual price for it. I was watching a couple in-front of me order plate after plate, must have been about 20 orders, they were just crushing it, and they were skinny as a rail, sigh curse you Sicilian fat man DNA! If i did that they would have to make me part of the establishment because they would never get me out of there. It was very clean inside. The salad bar and miso station aren't amazing but I tried a few items and they were not bad. It's very large inside. And the servers are very attentive and come to you often. I think it's location ( in a shopping center, next to a food lion) keeps it from getting as much traffic as it should. I'd come back here again, for the same reason I came here today. Cheap sushi. I'd imagine the dinner menu changes a bit. So id be interested in that. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover. The outside of this restaurant is a dump, but don't let that deter you from going inside! The lunch menu is $11.99 for all you can eat, including a salad bar, ice cream, appetizers, sushi rolls, and more! Sure it's not the HIGHEST quality (says the San Diego, California girl) but gosh darn it will do the trick. Just be aware the "crab" on the menu is imitation-even though they don't spell it "krab." read more

Sushi King - Sushi Bars Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

This Sushi King is pretty good as the chain goes. Their salad bar is fresh, they have good miso soup, and everything tastes good. The staff is very friendly and the restrooms are clean. Of all the Sushi Kings around the area, this one is my favorite. The peppered tuna and yellowtail jalapeño appetizers stood out as being very well-prepared sashimi dishes. read more

As an ODU college student, I always went to the Sushi King in Norfolk. I had almost forgotten what the one here was like. I must say I definitely found the favorite. It was Valentine's Day and I decide to third wheel with my parents. We are immediately seated regardless of how busy it was. We were immediately tended to by a waitress and got our drink orders as we looked over the menus. My parents had never gone before, but the waitress explained how the restraint worked very well. We first order the appetizers. There aren't many per order which is the only downside, but it's an all you can order restaurant! We then order the sushi rolls. As we waited, we helped ourselves to the salad bar filled with many delicious foods. I'm even salivating just thinking of the salad bar! The food came out in decent time and it was definitely worth it. The sushi was delicious and the presentation made it even more appealing. My personal favorites were the Volcano Roll and the Spicy Tuna Roll. Of course I'm a spicy fanatic so only get those if you don't mind spicy! My mom doesn't usually like sushi, but I could tell she enjoyed what she ordered. Halfway through our course we had to switch tables due to an overflow of guests, but the manager was so nice about it and even offered a discount for the inconvenience. I definitely recommend this place if you even like sushi a little bit. They even have other entrees for kids as well as those that don't enjoy sushi just in cause you have a friend in the group that doesn't eat sushi for some bizarre reason! read more

Enjoyed the food but they never brought one of the items we ordered, didn't keep our drinks full, we had to ask for napkins and utensils for our food as no one ever brought any and it took them about and hour to bring us our checks and ring us out we only had 6 people. read more

If you're reading reviews trying to figure out if Sushi King is worth going to, I am begging you, GO! This place is the bomb.com, a little piece of heaven on Earth for me. If I'm having a good, bad, or average day, I will never turn down Sushi King. Sushi King is NEVER a bad idea. I've been going here for years, and I've never had to wait for a table for more than 5 minutes, ever! Even when I'm going with my giant family, for a party of 10-20 people. Sushi King is an all you can eat place, but it's set up to order as you go, so all the foods come out freshly made. They have a variety of foods ranging from sushi, to hibachi, to yakisoba, and calamari to dumplings. Their menu even keeps kids in mind and have endless chicken nuggets, fries, and mini corn dogs for your minis. After your meal, you're going to want to try their cheesecake that's at the serve yourself salad bar. They also have the option of ice cream! Sushi Kings menu has a variety of options that can accommodate the most pickiest eaters, to the daring sushi eaters. So yes, you should pick Sushi King as your next meal choice, but make sure to wear athletic gear. The biggest mistake you can make when coming to Sushi King, is wearing real pants. It really will effect your performance (haha). read more

Food is great and fresh. The service is pretty quick and accurate. Very good place to hang out as well.

Went here last Saturday to get dinner with my boyfriend and some of his friends. It was my first time here and it was a group of six. Me and my boyfriend shared crab bites, shumai, edamame, spicy tuna rolls, spicy california rolls, spicy shrimp rolls, volcano rolls, salmon sashimi, and sea angel rolls. I really liked the crab bites and volcano rolls the most. For $16.99, the buffet was worth it. Other sushi restaurants tend to have sushi that isn't fresh and for a higher price per amount. Our server was very nice and she refilled our drinks and took our empty plates often. Despite our somewhat large group, our food came out quick and fresh. We also finished dinner with some rainbow sherbet. Definitely will come back soon! read more

I'm from Hawaii and since I moved, I've been let down by how many sushi places aren't authentic. I came in here with the expectation of decent sushi decent service. I ordered a hawaii roll and it tasted like how I would describe Hawaii, I had a small case if homesickness after the first bite. The service is absolutely amazing, I faked saying this was my first time at a sushi bar and even dressed the part, they walked me through everything fluently and with precision. This is by far the best sushi bar in Virginia, if I'm not in Hawaii I'll be eating here and definitely recommend this place to others. All I can say further is Mahalo Nui Loa and thank you for bringing me back with the first bite of sushi. read more

I may go back just to eat my money's worth of seaweed & cucumber salad, dress-your-own miso soup, fresh fruit and steamed shrimp - all included in the AYCE price. Steamed shrimp, people! They were just the slightest bit overcooked, but still tasty! Also ordered: Steamed shumai - good, but not hot enough from the kitchen. Spicy shrimp bite - good review from the better half. Volcano roll - one of the best in the area. A perfectly light amount of sauce. Rainbow roll - the tuna on top was some of the freshest we've seen. Delicious! Mermaid roll - good combo with lots of crisp cucumber. California roll - A good, safe choice. As I anticipated. Monkey something roll - Interesting inclusion of fried banana. Not the best. The sauce on top tasted like straight horseradish. All in all, a good experience with attentive, knowledgeable service. I only wish they'd use less rice. I do understand the point of doing so in an AYCE joint, but having to take half the rice off of every roll gets a little old after a while. Not annoying enough to keep me away. I'll be back! Of course, for those who enjoy such things, they have little mini slices of different cakes and ice cream. read more

You can't beat the selection, the freshness and the price. I have been here more than a dozen times and all their rolls, appetizers and salad bar items are fresh and super flavorful. I am willing to pay top dollar for sushi and have been to many places in the area that are billed as "the best sushi" and they come up short when compared to Sushi King. read more

We ate here this evening and had about a 29 minute wait. What was neat about the wait was they will text you once your table is ready so we did not have to stand around in the restaurant.

One of my favorite sushi places. Tasty and affordable. You get a great mix of food choices, appetizers, regular entrees, and sushi. They sometimes have special rolls you can try as well. The little side salad bar has soups and some cold salad and fruit. Absolutely wonderful place to enjoy meeting with friends. This is a chain however the Centerville location does not do Groupon like the norfolk one. However their service is better. I've never had bad service here. read more

This is a great place to go to if you're really hungry and craving sushi! Everything here is all you can eat. I was really surprised how good the food is here. For example, the beef fried rice is so delicious! The beef is really good quality. Shrimp Tempura Roll was really good as well. Great selection of sushi and hand rolls here. The restaurant is huge! There's plenty of room for people to be seated at. Service can be slow at times. I waited for quite some time after placing my second order. There was one time where I placed another order for beef fried rice, and that order never came. It was really disappointing. They were busy the night I came here, so maybe they forgot? But still, you should never forget a customer's order, no matter what. Overall, this is a great place to eat at. They have another Sushi King location in Richmond. read more

We've been coming here every year for the past five years. Unlike other sushi buffet restaurants, Sushi King has good size Sashimi cuts! Moreover they also often taste fresh.

Would probably have gone with a 2 but the service was really good. The presentation on the food was sloppy and put together sloppily.

This is the best sushi place ever that I've tried this is my FAVORITE sushi place.it's safe and the food is good.

This sushi king is actually terrible. I'll attach a picture of my volcano roll with the meat on the inside removed... there's so much rice in every single roll. The "salad bar" is nothing like the other sushi kings. Apparently this one is independently owned and you can definitely tell. Save your money and drive to one of the other locations that isn't owned by the people who own this one. The selection of rolls here is very minimal as well. My server was nice and attentive so that's why I give it two stars. read more
