Happened upon this sushi place, but will never happen again. The interior had cool architecture and design. There were plenty of waitresses and our food was out quickly. One waitress tried her best to help, but she was difficult to understand. We had the seaweed salad that seemed dried out. The shrimp ceviche was super good but it pretty much ends there. The selection of rolls was basic with nothing that stood out. The rolls we had were ok. The Oreo tempura and mini rolls were decent. As soon as we put the last bite in our mouths, the check was there. We felt nothing short of thrown out. It was weird, but we wanted to leave quickly when a group of diners allowed their children to run around the restaurant. While we ate we hoped the staff would say something but the situation got much worse. We were forced to move drinks on our table so kids wouldn't hit them while running. This experience could have been more than a 2 but since this issue was allowed to continue, 2 stars it is. Overall, just bad. read more

It's been a few years since I've been back but we happened to be in the area and was in the mood. Parking was a little weird but doable, we found an open meter on Saturday, 100' from the Palace front door at about 2:30. $1/hr not terrible. Didn't know but there is an ally path from the main downtown parking area to the shopping plaza/pedestrian roadway. This is still a great all you can eat sushi places, as good as I remember, great location and atmosphere, though the interior is showing a bit of wear and tear. Service was adequate but they did appear to be short maybe one server. I thought my wife and I were going to have all u can shovel but she pointed out that they also offered a 2 & 3 roll special. Not only did they offer my regular favorites but the price was about half the cost of all-u-can-eat. Special included an ample salad and soup while the six rolls were surprisingly large with generous ingredients altogether left us pleasantly full. Sure I could have had another roll but then I would have been "uncomfortable" and sleepy. All in all really happy with our choice to stop and the 2-3 roll special can be a better financial option while still leaving full. read more

Came out to eat here with a family member. Loved this place's sushi and kitchen items that you can order. They have a bunch of things that you can order from on a list, and each one came out tasting really good. Everything we ordered from the kitchen list came out freshly fried and crispy, or cooked or made just the right amount. Sushi and sashimi both looked and tasted fresh. Staff and employees here were pretty helpful as well! I'll give a warning to be careful about how much you order and eat at this place though. The restaurant has a policy that you can order all you want, but you MUST finish eating everything that you order, otherwise you'll be charged for any big leftover waste. Just a heads up to let you know, so don't order too much! Interior has a pretty cool design, but it can also feel a bit cramped when there's a bunch of people sitting. We could also see the sushi chefs preparing our food at our table, so that was cool to watch in the distance. read more

I love Sushi Palace! This place was my introduction to sushi 9 years ago, and I have been coming here, (along with the other locations throughout NJ) ever since. They have a regular non unlimited sushi menu and the unlimited sushi menu. I've only ever ordered from the unlimited sushi menu. It's the perfect mix of cooked food (kitchen menu) and sushi. It's a dimly lit, intimate spaIf you're visiting on a weekend, expect a wait and a FULL house, I mean no empty seats at all. I visited last Saturday, and our wait time for a party of 3 was about 40 minutes. One of the best things about Sushi Palace is their unlimited sushi menu. It's best to go with a large group, so you can order a wider variety of rolls without getting full too quickly. Lately, they've even added an additional menu with new items, which is a nice touch. Every time I visit Sushi Palace, I always start with Kani salad, edamame, and shumai, it's the perfect way to kick off the meal. My go to rolls are the Pink Lady, Butterfly, and Volcano, they never disappoint. I always bring my friends and family here to introduce them to sushi, and it's become my go to spot. Be prepared to wave your waiter/waitress over whenever you want to put in another order, which I actually appreciate. Most of the time, they mainly come by to clear plates, so if you're waiting for them to ask about your next round of food, you might be sitting there for a while. Whether you're a sushi lover or not, I believe that Sushi Palace is a must visit! read more

They added more options to their menu which included a Peking duck, sushi pizza and Korean beef. We also got our usual seaweed salad, Kani salad, seafood udon soup, shumai, potato croquette, and all varieties of sushi. Service is impeccable as usual. read more

My favorite Christmas tradition is coming to Sushi Palace for Christmas lunch! I usually come with a pretty large crowd of 15-20 people and get their all-you-can-eat set Ambiance: Spacious, plenty of natural light! The space can fit a large crowd of 15-20 people at a long table setup-you just need to call ahead to reserve Service: The staff is quick to take your order and deliver your food. They are also quite attentive and continuously poured hot tea or water throughout our lunch Food: Sashimi slices taste fresh and delicious! My favorites are the Salmon and White Tuna sashimi. Their sushi pieces are quite large and come with a a large portion of rice at the bottom. My go to favorite rolls are the dragon roll, soft shell crab roll(fried crab), tri color roll and spicy salmon roll. Their tempuras are super crispy and come hot to your table! You also must save room for dessert and get their ice cream( green tea, chocolate, vanilla or red bean) If you love all-you-can-eat sushi you should come here! I know I'll be back! read more

My favorite sushi place in Somerville! Their AYCE menu is really worth it, around $40 a person (tax and tip included) which is kinda pricey, but considering the amount of food they offer, it's worth the feast once in a while. The sushi also comes out pretty fast! I love dining here whenever I'm in town, I wish Ann Arbor had a place like this too haha. read more

Poor customer service they are very rude and won't explain how the "All you can eat" menu works to new customers. The food tastes old and lacks a lot of flavor. Not worth the price if you want good sushi go to Sushi Yakohama. Ended up getting food poisoning from my meal read more

I've been to Sushi Palace in Somerville a handful of times, and typically I've gotten what I've expected, fast and reliable service on a moderately expansive menu in an all you can eat format. Up to this point, I've gotten exactly that. Though, my trip on Tuesday June, 24th has convinced me to write this review and likely not return. First, I'll start with the good. My group of 5 had a reservation at 6:30, and we were promptly seated at 6:30, given waters and the menu to order. After that, it was all pretty much down hill. After putting in our first order, we were served within 15 minutes, though the server forgot a number of items (since it's all you can eat and it was busy, we figured we would just order those items the next go-around). Upon finishing our first order- it took about 15 or 20 minutes for the staff to notice and come around with a second order sheet. Though once they came around with it, we filled it out and returned it. Then came to the waiting- about 40 minutes of it. We asked the staff a few times what happened to our order, and each time we were either disregarded or were told "it's coming." After enough waiting the staff brought us back new order sheets because our original order sheets were lost. At this moment, my group was considering leaving due to all the waiting but we decided to give round two one more chance- that was the wrong decision. After waiting another 25-30 minutes with no food, and the surrounding tables being served again and again we inquired what happened to our order. The staff apologized and indicated it was busy, though from our observations it appeared our table was the only one that continuously got disregarded. My group was about to finally leave when our order was slowly being brought out. Item by item- 5 minutes apart (and of course- with items missing). After eating the remaining sushi that was served, we asked if we can have to ice cream we ordered about 40 minutes earlier- and we did end up getting it- 10 minutes after making our final request. Upon getting the bill, our group asked to talk to the manager to ask about a discount due to the disappointing service. The manager quickly said they do not give discounts for slow service or forgotten items. My group then decided not to tip- a decision we do not take lightly. We understand servers are typically underpaid and rely on tips to get by, but to some degree there needs to be respectable service for a tip to be given. After paying, a few members of my group went down to the bathroom (myself included). When we came back up to our seats I discovered the servers took the gluten free sauce I brought (since Sushi palace does not accommodate originally with gluten free soy sauce). Typically I would say something and try to get it back, but myself and my group was so fed up we decided to leave. But the story does not end there! While trying to leave our server cut us off at the exit and said, "You can't leave, you have to tip." A little shocked we explained once again that over the course of our meal we were often forgotten about and had items not given to us. Our server still in front of us at the door kept demanding we tip. Nowhere on the Sushi Palace website nor on the check does it indicate tips are built-in to the bill or required. Eventually the manager came over again, asked the server to step away from the door and we left. I was going to leave a 2 star review before being stopped at the door- but being confronted at the door made it easy to change this to a 1 star review. read more

This was an all-you-can-eat spot that had plenty of options. The space was smaller than I thought but did have a closed off location for private events it seemed like. The service was okay as it tended to slow down the more we ordered, but suppose that is the point. I will not share everything I tasted, but just give a few of the items tried. From the kitchen, the best item tried was surprisingly the miso soup. There was plenty of tofu present and came out very hot, which was nice to see. The broth was refreshing. The vegetable lumpia was also tasty. The rice vinegar enhanced the overall flavor. Regarding the sushi, I had some regular hand rolls, sashimi, and special rolls. They seemed to be of decent quality, but lacked in consistency as we ordered a few items more than once with different results. I was most intrigued to try the mushroom avocado roll as I do not believe seeing that before. The combination of mushroom and avocado was definitely interesting but grew on me after a couple of bites. Some of the special rolls that stood out to me were the butterfly, tiger, shunpick, and Edison rolls. Will I go back? Probably. read more

Tl;dr: Just get takeout here. Do not dine in. (Original Review dated August 2013 is below the asterisks.) So, I had such an awful experience with the service the first time I went to this location that I flat-out refused to return for ages. When a friend suggested we eat here a few days ago, I thought, well, it's been over a decade. Surely, the service has improved...right? No. The servers were very nearly as rude as they were the first time I came here. After my previous experience, I refused to get all-you-can-eat and ordered a la carte. Just like before, the food was fantastic and made very quickly. But the staff? You won't see anyone so much as crack a smile at you. Any questions directed towards staff are responded to with disdain and impatience. The servers bumped into me several times without a single apology. One server also put her hand on the rim of my cup (you know, where my lips go) when delivering my tea, as a warning for those concerned about hygiene. No one asks if you liked the food, if you need anything (except for water, they were on top of that one). All of the serving staff seem to be dismissive, rude, and unpleasant. The only service improvement I experienced is that at least the staff didn't try to kick us out after only 20 minutes this time. To cap it all off, they slammed the receipt on table and nearly yelled at us when my friend accidentally signed the customer copy instead of the merchant copy. For crying out loud, is a GENTLE reminder so much to ask for?? It's not like we'd gotten up or even started gathering our things yet! The only reason they're still in business must be because the food is so good, but I absolutely WOULD NOT recommend actually dining here unless you enjoy being treated poorly by serving staff. Get takeout and eat it at home--you'll have a MUCH better experience. ******* Original review, August 30, 2013: I went to Sushi Palace with a few friends. We had good timing, since it was a relatively busy night, and we were seated quickly. We all got the all-you-can-eat deal. If I could give this restaurant two completely separate ratings, I would. The sushi was delicious and was prepared amazingly quickly. I lived in Japan for several years, and while the sushi was certainly different (American-style sushi rather than Japanese sushi), everything tasted great. I would happily give the chefs 5 stars. The low rating I gave this restaurant comes entirely from the service. Although they were lightning quick, the servers were incredibly rude to me and my friends. After we had been there about twenty minutes, just finishing our first plates of sushi before we ordered more (you generally have to finish what you order to get more, which is understandable), the servers started putting extreme pressure on us to leave. Since we'd paid over 20 bucks, we obviously ordered more sushi, which was grudgingly brought to us. Once again, we were pressured to leave. After a while, we were told that the kitchen might not take our orders anymore because we had been ordering a lot of sushi. There were 5 of us, four of whom are athletic guys. When splitting orders amongst 5 people, it goes quickly. And based on the prices for each individual plate we had ordered, none of us had come even close to eating $20 worth of sushi. We finally gave up after having been there about 40 minutes. One of my friends was still hungry, and he was very disappointed that he wasn't given a chance to get his money's worth. Perhaps this was a one-time thing, but I was extremely off-put by the service at this restaurant. If we'd been there for hours on a busy night, I could understand being asked to move along so that they could seat other customers, but I think trying to kick us out after twenty minutes is beyond unacceptable. read more

For people who loves Sushi and Sashimi, Sushi Palace in Somerville NJ is an all you can eat. I have been here many times and keeps on coming back because of the fresh fish they serve. From the soup as start to the fruits and ice cream for dessert, nice waiters and cozy place. The place is a bit small though and it's a long wait to be seated during weekends, so better you reserve a table and don't forget to bring your bottle coz it's BYOB! read more

This place is an AYCE sushi restaurant that you order from a paper menu. Everything is made to order and you can order as much as you can eat. The place is very crowded and apparently very popular with the locals. Its also BYOB. Its about $32 per person. All of the fish range from super fresh to ok fresh. The fried stuff tasted a bit like old oil. Service is quick, and water is refilled on time. Bathroom is huge and clean. Overall a decent value and a nice place to meet with friends. read more

Sushi Palace makes for a pretty solid all you can eat sushi experience. I appreciate the wide array of menu options provided, and the lack of limitations, unlike some other places. We started out by trying the red snapper and calamari, which were decent, but nothing special. I really liked their eel, and enjoyed most of the rolls. The Edison roll stood out to me the most as my favorite, though I strongly disliked the butterfly roll and felt like it was a poor combination of flavors. In terms of service, Sushi Palace is very quick and has very helpful staff. They were constantly cleaning off any empty plates and accommodated all of our needs. The inside of Sushi Palace is clean, though the tables feel cramped and the interior doesn't stand out in terms of appearance. While Sushi Palace isn't my favorite AYCE I've tried, they definitely made for a nice, enjoyable experience. read more

For all you can eat sushi it's def my favorite I've had in the area. Thats a no brainer However I do hate going there. I'm a big dude with a big appetite. I always get 8-10 rolls of sushi and they only bring 5 at a time which I understand but when I was going every week you think they'd realize I'm going to eat it all When I would go during the day they would kinda try to get me out of there fast. Probably because they weren't making money off of me Anyway all the sushi slaps and the spicy seaweed salad it bomb, that's all that matters read more

Pretty good experience for ayce sushi in the Somerville area. The restaurant is loud (even on weekdays during the night!) and moderately crowded so it took ~10 minutes to get a table for 3. We ordered a variety of sushi, sashimi, and rolls. Each one was of good quality for the amount of food ordered. The specials were also great, specifically the sesame tuna! To be honest, the food here isn't bad, but it's not the best quality sushi I've had. But for the amount of food you can order, I believe it's worth it. It's also a great location to walk around after dinner and check out some of the other shops in town. read more

For sushi lovers. I have been here a few times . BYOB all you can eat. Starting with a soup and ending with fruit and icecream. I have been to this place always on Friday and from 6:30pm to 7:45pm it has been the busiest time. I never got disappointed, the fish is fresh and the portions are good. The restaurant is not big , but it is cozy and the waitress are always nice and gentle. If you are a sushi lover it is a place for you! I certainly will go back. read more

Came here for a birthday celebration. Our group had 8 people and put in a reservation. We were put into a side room which was more intimate. This place is one of the few all- you-can eat places where not everyone at the table has to get ayce. The service was quick. The ayce menu was split into sushi bar and kitchen items. I recommend the salmon sashimi it's so fresh. Everyone at the table agreed that the selection and quality was great in comparison to others I the area. Especially for $30. read more

A friend brought us here a couple of months ago and we liked it. But this time is such a disappointment! All fried foods have a hard shell, not crispy but break your teeth hard; Korean BBQ meats are rotten; spicy tuna is definitely not made of tuna; salmon skin roll don't have salmon skin but some bitter crumbs(do they really think we can't tell?); Peking duck has a tiny piece of jerky duck in the bun; things are just so awful. read more

My sister and I went on the one year anniversary of our dad passing because we used to go to kumo with him but it's closed now, and it's safe to say we will never return. It was such an uncomfortable atmosphere, we were being watched like a hawk. Our server was quite literally standing no more than two feet to the side of our table STARING at us the whole time. I tried not to pay attention to enjoy my meal but I felt her gaze burning on me. We did order a lot so I think she was trying to make sure we didn't sneak it into our bags. At the end we had some left over and we knew we'd have to pay for it and she was really weird about it and told us we ordered too much which made us very uncomfortable. we would've finished it if the fish was above subpar and we had the time and space to do so but unfortunately we wanted to get out of there as quick as possible so we were okay with paying the extra fee. And we didn't even take the extra food because we didn't want it. read more

Ideal for vegetarians! I know as a vegetarian my options are limited but they have plentiful options for me to enjoy. The all you can eat for $30 is really great!

Parking can be tricky, but eventually you'll find something. I look forward to visiting again. read more

our server was very pushy she hovered at the table the whole time when were trying to pay the bill. We asked to split the bill 3 ways and she charged 2 of us $23 and the third one $74. then when we were filling out the bill she kept tapping on the tip part asking for more and even handed me back my bill at one point to point out that tip I left her on mine wasn't to her liking. she also slammed all of our plates down very aggressively. I would give no stars but unfortunately I am required to give one to post my review. read more

This was actually my fave AYCE place in Jersey. I really loved every visit. They were always so kind to my daughter and me and the rolls were always pretty good. I never ordered anything but the AYCE. With it, you get your choice of appetizers (the Kanu salad is fireeeee). I also liked the gyoza. The fish-to-rice ratio was solid, too. They're very generous with sauces so order all the ponzu and spicy mayo you need. The price point was about $32 on weekends, I believe but I'd absolutely pay it again in a heartbeat. read more

AYCE sushi for 30/person! What's not to like. Sashimi pieces: reasonable sized, decent freshness (salmon, white tuna, pepper salmon, red snapper, mackerel).

Located in a historic former bank building previously occupied by (the inconsistent, at best) Bank 34, Sushi Palace on Division Street in Somerville offers a reliably consistent option for Japanese cuisine in a very casual atmosphere. Sushi Palace delivers sushi rolls and sashimi as well as a variety of freshly-made traditional Japanese dishes (teriyaki, udon, tempura, etc.) at a reasonable price with a laid-back and no-frills ambiance. Diners can place their orders either à la carte (paying for each item ordered) or on an 'all-you-can-eat' basis (currently, $29 for lunch or dinner on Monday through Thursday; $31 for lunch or dinner on Friday through Sunday) that includes soup, salad, anything on the menu, and even ice cream (if you have room for it after your meal). Even if you're not in the mood for a heavy meal, I recommend the 'all-you-can-eat' option if you're going to order more than two of the premium sushi rolls (which range from $12.50 to $16.50 apiece). There's no limit to the number of orders you can place, but you will be charged an additional $5 if you leave food on your plate, so it's best to pace yourself by ordering a few items at a time. I was in the mood for sushi and selected the Pink Lady (comprised of crabmeat and avocado topped with spicy tempura flakes, sliced salmon, and tobiko), the Edison (comprised of shrimp tempura and spicy tuna topped with spicy crab), and the Kuchi Special (comprised of spicy white tuna and avocado topped with tuna, salmon, and yellowtail). Our rolls were served very quickly and freshness of the ingredients was obvious. My meal definitely wasn't bad -- the service was acceptable, our food was served very quickly and was tasty, and no one got sick - but it wasn't memorable enough of an experience to make a distinct impression on me. I'd give it 3.5 stars, rounded up to 4 stars, so I'd go back to Sushi Palace if I was in the area, but wouldn't make a special trip just for it. PRO TIP: Sushi Palace doesn't have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of on-street metered parking and parking in the Somerville municipal parking lots off Main Street. Bring change or use your credit card for the meters ($1/hour) before 7pm Monday through Saturday. read more

Our favorite sushi place for AYCE around. They recently added many more items to their menu including some fun apps, and more sashimi like yellowtail. Staff is always super friendly. They also have a very impressive fish tank. If you go during peak hours on a weekend night, the wait will be long, but we usually go on weekdays or earlier on the weekends and are usually seated instantly. The fish is fresh and high quality, and the service is attentive. It's also BYOB. Highly recommended as the best All You Can Eat in the area. read more

They're back!! I know, dealing with pricey take out all throughout the past few years had been enough to make anyone a bit bitter. I decided on a whim to check if they are doing all you can eat yet and they are! Prices are reasonable especially if you go heavy on the sashimi of buttery salmon. It's still BYOB and perfect place for a lively date night or going out with friends. Tuna on its own can be a little fishy but the white tuna was delicious. Highly recommend anything with salmon or eel here. Also love the spicy seaweed salad! Service was really good tonight as well and I think they're trying extra hard to make up for lost time. read more

I always come here for all you can eat (AYCE) sushi and it never disappoints. There's a variety of appetizers and specialty rolls that will fill you up until you can't move anymore. Even if you don't like fish, there are actually tons of options for you, such as udon, tempura, etc. My personal favorite dishes are the spicy seaweed salad, any of the tempuras, and the edamame. For the sushi, I love the mango ones. It's literally just a piece of mango on top of rice! I also really like the Yummy roll (so good) and the Dragon roll. It's always great to go in large groups because you can try a bunch of different stuff together. When we were there this time, there was a seasonal snowflake roll. It just takes like the spicy seaweed salad as a roll, so it was great! Also, to top off your meal, you can get AYCE ice cream. The flavor is really great for the chocolate and green tea ice cream. They have a red bean ice cream, but I personally think the flavor is dull and tastes like vanilla. Overall, it's great here -- I came here for lunch and didn't need to eat again for the rest of the day! read more

I believe Sushi Palace is takeout only for the moment. I've ordered through various delivery apps and done pick up. In all cases, food is ready faster than estimate. Takeout packages are securely wrapped and hot items (soups, noodles, etc) are separated from cold (sushi). I really appreciate the care they take into making sure your meal makes it home with your safely. I am not a huge sushi eater and usually get a chicken or pork katsu bento box. I prefer the pork because the chicken is typically overcooked/dry. One time I ordered chicken teriyaki for a friend and the chicken was very tender and not overcooked at all, so I may have gotten unlucky. The bento is perfect after a long day when you're hungry and indecisive. The tempura vegetables are great - I wish I could replace all the sides with them (but the shumai and california roll are fine too). I don't order a ton of raw fish, but usually get something to accompany my bento. Fish tastes fresh enough. read more

We really like the food, but we've had to create a process to enjoy it. They package the hot items in the same bag as what should be cold items. So we always put the cold things in the fridge and allow extra time to get the food cold again, which of course affects the quality unfortunately. It seems this problem could be solved by simply putting the hot items in a separate bag. I've requested this every time, to no avail. Sometimes it's more frustrating g than others, and I've started cooking my own edamame to have with the meal to avoid ordering a hot items. I can't mandate everyone into my family into ordering only cold things though so, the problem persists. They also are stingy with the soy sauce, including only one serving for clearly 3 orders, so we have to divvy up the sauce because we all like differing amounts of wasabi. I will have to find another place with equally good food somehow. Any recommendations are appreciated! read more
