I'm a sushi enthusiast so I had to stop by and try it out. I honestly was not a huge fan. Maybe I went on an off day but the spicy salmon is like mush. Nothing stood out to me. read more

This is the worst place you can ever eat at At first we got no attention from the staff We didn't even get our water refilled once. Then we order to discover that the fish they served us was really really bad. To the point where I had to step out of the restaurant to vomit. We were then yelled at and told not to come back when we said the food made us sick. I advice anyone who wants to keep his/her health to never come or eat from this place. ******* THEY SERVE ROTEN FISH TO CUSTOMERS******* I really wish everyone can care about their health enough to avoid and report a places like this. read more

Nice place. It is a BYO which I like. Place is clean inside and out as well as the bathrooms. the sushi is fresh, obviously important. The service was good as well, even though it was busy. Waitress and manager were pleasant and accommodating. Price was fair for the area. We will go again. Happy with our choice. I give a good recommendation. Only downside is it gets busy and you may have to wait to get in on a Friday or Saturday evening. read more

Good sushi for all you can eat. Definitely a bang for your buck if you eat a lot. My favorite was the shrimp tempura roll. Spicy seaweed salad is also very good and much better than the plain seaweed salad. Plenty of seating: wasn't crowded on a Tuesday night but I heard it does get quite busy. Order the sashimi and don't fill up on rice. Eel was really good and came with yummy sauce. Also, red bean ice cream was a perfect finish. Staff was very quiet. Place seemed clean. read more

Friends recommended that we go to Sushi Palace for dinner. We started off with the Edamame and the spicy seaweed salad. Both were good but the spicy seaweed salad was exceptionally good. I've had many a seaweed salad in my time, but this one was very unique with additional ingredients including, I believe, imitation crab meat. It was delicious and all five of us found it tasty. For dinner we ordered a Maki combo B and a Sashimi combo as well as a shrimp tempura roll and a sweet potato roll. I'm not allowed to eat raw fish, so I ate the shrimp tempura roll and the sweet potato roll. I enjoyed them both. The rest of the group found the combo sushi platters good. The prices are relatively inexpensive. There is room for improvement in the service - it's a bit slow and seemed a little disjointed. read more

The people that leave reviews that the service here is excellent have to be robot accounts. The service is really bad here. The food isn't too bad, better than decent, but the service really ruins the meal. We were actually enjoying all the appetizers we ordered, and the sushi wasn't too bad either. Something my youngster ate didn't sit well with him, so he threw up a little bit and my wife caught it in a napkin. Our server, who for the record, never greeted us, never smiled, never checked up on us, never told us to enjoy our meals, nothing resembling service, all of a sudden comes to our table, points at the napkin, starts making a scene, and says, "You can' throw rice away, there is a penalty" We were like "Huh?' This girl was actually trying to accuse us of throwing away rice?!?!?! My wife got extremely upset and told her what the situation was. Then blank faced, she says, "He threw up? Oh ok" And just walked away. Not a single inquiry asking if our son was ok. We wanted to leave, because we were so upset about the service and the false accusation, but she refused to give us the check until we finished everything. I ask to speak to the manager, and she says there is no manager. No wonder this place is a mess! She kept repeating, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, ok" But the way she said it, especially after adding the ok at the end didn't make things any better. She finally brings us our check, and then proceeds to ask us, "Do you want dessert?" The audacity!!!! I legit thought I was on Hidden Camera, and this was a prank. I always leave 20 to 30% tips or more, depending on the experience, but this is the first and only time I left no tip. I still couldn't believe I paid for the meal. This is the ONLY AYCE spot that I have never returned to, and I never will. read more

Sushi Palaaaaaaaace. Been here so many times- so fun! You can get the $25 all you can eat dinner! You get two small white sheets where you can choose an array of sushi, sashimi, maki, tempura, soup, salad, teriyaki and everything else you could want from a Japanese restaurant! Definitely try the spicy seaweed salad. It's the bomb! Also the Edison roll! That one is the best. The spicy tuna and tempura vegetable roll are also very tasty. I usually order some tempura pumpkin and sweet potato as well. Love that stuff! Also the peppered salmon is really fresh. The seasoned outside is a nice touch. Order A LOT of it! They come in like mini bite-size pieces. Sometimes I've noticed that the avocado is slightly brown on or in sushi rolls BUT it's ok. They have a high volume of customers ordering many items, so it makes sense if the avocado is sitting out for a bit. The service here is super fast and will ask if you're ready a lot, so be prepared! They are really nice though and are just trying to do their job. Enjoy, and don't forget it's BYOB! read more

This place is like a second home to me. This is the best all you can eat sushi place in mercer that's for sure. I am a sucker for sushi so I come here probably once a month, and they have just the standard Delicious sushi. They don't pack way too much rice like other places do, they pack each piece with a lot of meat. Nothing on their specialty rolls are extremely unique like other sushi joints but they are delicious and full of fish. My personal favorite is the Edison roll! But they're all delicious especially with tempora shrimp stuffed in them! Be sure to try some of the eel rolls too the sauce they put on them makes the eel drenched in a sweet flavor almost like a syrup it's almost like a bbq sauce type of tang. Some stand out dishes: Spicy seaweed salad -wow delicious. They have the seaweed all mixed in some sort of sauce but piled in with crab meat, sesame seeds and tempora to add that crunchy texture with every bite. I could eat ten of them. Beef Kushi- typical beef kabobs but when they cook them well they have a delicious medium rare texture to them where they're so easy to eat and tender and they drench that tangy type of bbq sauce on it...so good. The only reason for a loss of a star their sushi quality isn't the best, compared to other places. So if you're obsessed with quality of quantity not sure if you'd enjoy as much. As well as some of the sides are inconsistently cooked (beef kushi can be burnt at times) and the service could be hit or miss had a few impolite run ins with waiters/waitresses. But hey it's all you can eat sushi or apps, just keep it coming!! read more

All you can eat for $20. Good quality made-to-order. Not walk-up to an already prepared buffet. Excellent service. Not just sushi.

All you can eat weeknight about $27.95, surcharge may apply if you waste food I tried the following Red California Roll - I liked Cucumber Avocado Roll - I liked Mango Avocado Roll - I liked Mushroom Avocado Roll - didn't like Shrimp Tempura - didn't like Vegetable Tempura Udon (light noodle soup) - didn't like the taste of the noodles. On regular menu it's $15.95, but I am not sure if I received a small bowl because of the all you can eat deal. I can't imagine the small bowl being that price. Regardless, I was grateful for the small bowl to taste and if I liked it, I guess I could have ordered more anyway? (I'm not sure if we're limited in that sense, since we were full and didn't try ordering anything multiple times). I'm not sure at all of what Udon noodles are supposed to taste like in general, so if you typically enjoy it, don't pay attention to my reaction to it. As it was my first time for any all you can eat sushi buffet, I didn't understand how it works, so when I put "1" for an item or "3" for an item (you receive 2 small sheets with all the menu items with a small blank line next to each item and a pen, and then when they bring your order they give you another new set of those sheets in case you want to order more), I thought I would get that many number of individual pieces of rolls, but I ended up receiving exactly 6 rolls per each item, regardless of the number I put down, so I guess it's more like just checking off which item you want and if I were ordering one from the regular menu which would traditionally come with 6 pieces. We also didn't know we could try other items from the menu that were not sushi, sashimi, rolls, etc. such as appetizers and desserts. Restaurant is nice looking and spacious enough inside, which you can't tell from the outside. Servers nice and currently all wearing masks. WiFi password is posted on window by the front desk. Overall this was a pleasant experience! read more

All you can eat sushi restaurant that never fails to fill me up. The fish quality is decent for its price. There are so many options in the menu that there will definitely be something for everyone. I have visited multiple locations several times as well as many other AYCE sushi restaurants, but Sushi Palace is still my #1 go-to. The sashimi is cut in good sizes and there is ample fish in the rolls. Generous amount of avocado. The seaweed salad and spicy seaweed salad are delicious appetizers and have just the right mix of spicy crab and seaweed. The miso soup is great- I usually get it between rounds of ordering. For dessert, I get the green tea ice cream (which I find tastes better here compared to elsewhere). Plenty of appetizers and cooked dishes too! Can't really beat this deal for the quality and price of AYCE sushi! The service here is also commendable. Anytime we have another order ready it's taken promptly and they supply you with new menus to check off your selection. Plenty of wasabi and ginger, and they also have spicy mayo on request. read more

Sushi Palace - Rotten Tuna - Japanese Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

While the all-you-can-eat offerings at Sushi Palace are impressive, exceeding that of the nearby Masa Sushi, the service, freshness of the fish, and overall cleanliness/environment are just subpar. You can do better at Sakana in Hamilton township or Masa in the Nassau Park Blvd complex. Though they lack Tuna sashimi, something Masa Sushi also does, they do offer a couple more sashimi and sushi on their menu than the comparable AYCE sushi places in the Princeton area. If you come here, I recommend getting lots of eel sashimi and sticking with only the sashimi in general, and avoid the regular rolls (which they overload with low-quality sushi rice). This establishment really likes loading their sushi rolls with a ton of rice--I would say that, for my spicy tuna/salmon sushi, it was 75% rice and 25% fish... a really sad ratio, if you ask me. For some reason, their table set-up really confuses their own waiters. At least three or four times each visit, I manage to get someone else's food delivered to me and some of the food that I ordered disappears in the same fashion. One or two times is understandable, but the frequency at which this happens (and the lack of any changes to fix this problem) really just demonstrates carelessness at this point. As for general service, this place is quite slow compared to other AYCE places in the area--even slower than Masa somehow. Perhaps it is because I came on off-peak nights, but I can't imagine their peak hours being any better. I spent 2 hours here after ordering a couple appetizers and no more than 5 rolls and 14 pieces of sushi, and that was just over two plates of food. The cleanliness of this establishment also leaves a lot of questions. When you sit down, the tables are sticky... literally picking up my phone leaves a stain on my case, and the stains on the table are visible when you sit down. You can ask the kind wait staff to clean it again, but the rags they use inspire even less confidence than the original deplorable state of the tables. No elbows on the dinner table... and not just because of etiquette. Hard no on ever returning. You can do much much much better with AYCE sushi. I would recommend Sakana, if you're really craving. read more

I went to Sushi Palace for the first time before AYCE sushi was a trend, many years ago. I've returned several times as it remains one of the better ones. You can have a really good multi-course meal, as they have a good variety of hot kitchen foods, cooked & raw sushi selections, plus the prized Asian ice cream flavors (green tea and red bean). Other places add a ton of rice to their rolls or weird ingredients like mango-- but not this place! They serve you just right. One less star for this review, though, because customer service was lackluster and the location is off the beaten path. read more

I've been to a few sushi bars in Texas and this place is just as good, and a bit better. THEY SERVE SASHIMI DURING LUNCH If sashimi isn't really your thing, you will not be enjoying this restaurant to its full potential. Most places charge extra for nigiri/sashimi during lunch, or they have it available only for dinner. The chef special rolls are decent. There isn't too much rice, and the ingredients are fresh. Appetizers are good too. Try the agedashi tofu for sure, and the calamari. Seafood soup is a good option to wash everything down! I would recommend Sushi Palace to my friends and would come again. read more

Sushi Palace - Spicy Tuna Roll - Japanese Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

This was my happy place starting from high school years. It's become a staple in my family to come to Sushi Palace every time we're all back for the holidays, and we always have a grand time ordering from the All-You-Can-Eat menu. In general, the quality of sushi is phenomenal. The sushi-rice-to-filling ratio is generous so you won't be leaving with belly-full of rice. The Yummy Roll is always my favorite -- with its spicy tuna on top with shrimp tempura flakes, this roll looks and tastes good. The sashimi also is fresh, generously cut, and presented nicely. I could go on and on about everything I like from the menu, but I still wouldn't be able to do this place justice. This is THE restaurant to go with a large group of hungry friends, family, or colleagues. I'm sure that you'll all leave with satisfied spirits and stomachs. Happy sushi eating! read more

As far as all you can eat sushi places go this is a must stop and try. The food is fresh and their menu depth rewards you well beyond the basic order. Service is a bit rough depending on which server your get but the food more than makes up for the lack of ambiance. The Kendall park location expanded its size but still gets crowded and cramped. But again that is more due to demand than poor facility. This place could expand again and the dinner rush would still be packed. We love this place for intimate dinners and for large group outing. The staff can cover it all. It's byob and a definite must try read more

Rating: 1.5/5. $49.11 prior to tips for two AYCY bland sushi = overpriced sushi for the lack of quality. The sushi rice was tasteless. The sushi rice was not seasoned properly. The red tuna slices were thin and almost pink. Hopefully, it was just a day off. We gave them the benefit of the doubt after being regulars for years. The restaurant was only one third full on a Sunday lunch. Thus, other customers may have reached the same conclusion than us. The fish slices and avocado were still fresh. The appetizers and desserts were delicious as usual. The service was standard. We may give them one more chance prior to write them off. read more

They said they just got the shipment of fresh fish that morning..... Hm well if that was their best I'd hate to come in on a day where it wasn't. Sushi was horrid. I understand some places could have bad quality but this was the worse. Food: the fish was stale tasting. I don't know if that even makes sense but that the only way I can describe it. They have no interest in quality of presentation or taste. The sashimi wasn't even good but in comparison to their rolls it was 10x better. (Take a look at my photo) When I told the chefs that I wanted only the fresh fish he yelled and said that all his fish was fresh. Ok well give me the pretty looking one because I refuse to eat that brown salmon. Service: damn right shit. The wait staff even the chefs kept a giving my table a stank face. They were so rude when handing us our orders as if it was bother to them. Never coming back. read more

Sushi Palace - Eat at your own risk. - Japanese Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

It's still a cute place tucked away in another jersey strip mall. Hadn't been here in awhile and my son n I were craving mass amounts of sushi. It's considered all you can eat. Thwy seat you and hand you two menus one for the kitchen and one for the sushi bar. Each person checks off the items they want from salad,soup apps,sushi, tempura, teriyaki items and even dessert. When you are done eating you order more till you're stuffed. Lunch during the week runs about $20. Which normally runs you two possibly three awesome quality sushi rolls. Their sushi was decent not holy crap but we did find a few favorite rolls. Their fish is fresh nothing sits. Rice of course, a little dryer than normal could've been moister and fluffier. I started off with Kani salad which was decent could've used a little more flavor. Son ordered miso which he said was pretty good I ordered mushroom soup it was good but had a taste I couldn't place. We had bbq squid which was a little tough but okay. Then crab tempura which was real crab- bonus and sweet potato and tofu tempura. Edamame for him and tofu teriyaki. The rolls edison, spicy crab, spicy tuna, princeton and yummy yummy. The edison was our favorite both in agreement. So if you're in the area definitely worth a check in for lunch to fulfill your sushi craving. read more

Want to fill up with good sushi rice balls? This is the right place. I have been enjoying sushi for a few decades in many different cities, and countries. Never had I had to fill myself with so much rice to find some tiny pieces of seafood in a piece of sushi. As for the sashimi, what the menu says "1 piece" is really about the size of a quarter inch long, and transparently-thick. You will never have to worry about too much calories from the seafood because the rice will take up 60% of the sushi. And, you should be forewarned now to avoid embarrassment: finish your rice on the plate! The waitress sternly told my guests (if a reader called it an "insult", I would not object), "you ordered too much! If you don't finish these rice crumbs, we will charge you extra for each piece leftover." (We ordered 6 buffets ($140), which translated into two big plates--and I have the clean plates to show--no waste.) So, brace yourself if you want to fill up with the wonderful sushi rice (which indeed is perfectly prepared, not too hard and not too soft) but not sushi. Bon appetit. read more

I have been to the one on Inman Road in Edison a few years back and came back to the Kingston/Princeton local this past week. There is the regular menu, then there is the all-you-can-eat menu. Go for the all-you-can-eat option. Choose from appetizers, soups, regular dishes like teriyaki or katsu, and the sushi. Just write the number of orders you want for each item and voila! The food keeps on coming. The service is a little hectic, and I was not able to get a refill of water or hot tea from a waitress until I was nearly finished eating. If you can overlook the service, the experience is worth coming for. You really want to order everything from the menu but you better be hungry before coming here. The sushi was tasty and nicely presented. The spicy seaweed salad appetizer was soooo good I wanted to order more of it. For under $30 a person, you will get your money's worth here. read more

Disappointed at the quality of the sushi. We ordered 3 rolls, the rainbow roll, kamikaze roll, and the butterfly roll. They all pretty much tasted the same. The said they put on the butterfly roll wasn't very good. The only thing I would recommend is the spicy seaweed salad. That was excellent and quite unique. All other options were similar to that of Sushi King. Between the 2 buffets, I would close sushi king. I feel like they offer more options. read more

Love hate relationship with this place. It's cheap for all you can eat sushi and the food here is fresh enough to taste good and not have food poisoning. We usually come here in a big group to splurge on seafood. It does the job, but food-wise really can't expect too much. Also there's usually a long line during dining hours, and this place is very strict on you finishing everything you ordered, even if it's one piece of sashimi left on the plate. It's a fair policy but just keep that in mind when you order. read more

After much searching (and disappointment) since moving to the area, we finally found an AYCE sushi place. The ambiance is very nice - it looks clean, nice and very appealing. I love the orange stone for the tables. The service was great - the staff was always attentive to us and we were brought all the food we had requested (which I know can sometimes be an issue to any AYCE place like this - we had issues in NY with other places not bringing everything we asked for - even though we came to the place religiously and they KNEW we always ate everything). The food was pretty good. The sushi and sashimi seemed fresh, and tasted great. We had the peppered salmon, salmon, squid, red clam, kani, tobiko and eel. The appetizers were tasty - we ordered the spicy seaweed salad (delish), gyoza and fried calamari. For the rolls, they were up and down. Jersey Girl - Nope. Didn't think the mango would overpower like it did - not for me. Kamikaze - Good. I don't eat eel, so the BF ate the portions with that and I picked on the other pieces. Edison roll - probably my favorite. Warm & cold mixed in a good balance and very tasty. They also had a special for the weekend, the Pikachu roll - it was like a sampler platter for meats - I believe it had salmon, tuna and shrimp (?) wrapped in the pink soy paper. Was also very tasty - would eat that again. We're out of practice, so we were only able to order those 4 rolls and our sushi/sashimi. Will definitely be returning! read more

Sushi Palace - Jersey Girl, Kamikaze, Edison rolls, eel, red clam, squid, crab, and tobiko sashimi & sushi - Japanese Near Me - Princeton, New Jersey

This place is conveniently located in downtown Somerville on Division Street. This was the first Sushi place I went to after coming to the US and I have loved each visit. Its all you can eat Sushi with appetizers and dessert included in it for $25. So there's really no downside. Food, simply put, is delicious. You probably wouldn't get swept off your feet by the food but you will most certainly give your friends a 'Hey, this is good' with the raised eyebrows and the titled head. There are a lot of options available, divided into two parts - Kitchen menu, where you have Soups, Salads, Tempuras, other Appies and the Sushi menu. When you come in, you are given a paper each for the Kitchen Menu and the Sushi menu where you have to decide what you want to get and how much you want to get. You can always ask for multiple papers, multiple times. I'm listing below some of my favorites. Salad - Spicy Seaweed Salad, Kani Salad Soup - Miso Soup Appetizers - Gyoza*, Crispy Calamari, Red Snapper Teriyaki, Crab meat Tempura Sashimi - Clam, Crab, Red Snapper, Salmon Sushi - Butterfly*, Spicy Crab, Yummy, Dragon, Mango Avocado, California, Dessert - Green team ice cream* (* indicates must try) A word of caution - they are strict about over ordering and they do apply surcharge if you waste food. For reasons unknown, I have never had that scenario. Service is pretty good when it comes to serving food. Waitresses will always keep checking on you. if you want more The ambiance isn't the best. The place is usually crowded. I would recommend making a reservation. I always have. I'm not a big fan of how many people they accommodate at a time. There is hardly a table you can find where you don't get your elbows brushed by a waitress going through. Over all, I'd say this is a very good Sushi joint. Definitely a place to satiate your Sushi cravings. read more
