This place has great food and great service. There is an all you can eat option which is great to explore a variety of different foods. There's always great music playing and the waiters are all very nice! Shout out to one specific waiter named Bornwell, he is so welcoming and very friendly! read more

Okay so it's been a while and we decided to do a date night and I picked here. Who doesn't love AYCES??? You definitely get your moneys worth. I unfortunately tap out earlier than expected but my boyfriend is a CHAMPION! They now use iPads to place your order which is super convenient. Everything comes out in a timely manner and made to perfection. I would say the only thing I did not like was the dessert rolls. It would be good without the rice and maybe use a sponge cake or something. The rice made it taste horrible in my opinion. read more

I wish I could give 0 stars. We went here on a Sunday night, to get all you can eat sushi. Upon arrival, when I went to the bathroom, there was unflushed throw up... this was foreshadowing. We ordered a lot of sushi. Not too much, but a lot, because it's all you can eat and we wanted our moneys worth. The fish was disgusting, slimy, and clearly past its expiration. My girlfriend couldn't even bring herself to eat at all. Due to the rule about fees for wasted food, I had to eat it. It was absolutely horrible. I had to force myself full of this disgusting rotten fish. The worst part was that the workers clearly knew it, because they were staring at us with guilty looks on their faces. In the end they just came and took the remaining sushi, without even asking if we were done, and without making us pay a fee. Figure out your shit Sushi Prime 88 :( read more

Outstanding experience! They have recently updated their menu here and the food was outstanding! The sushi was fresh and well presented. The tuna was melt in your mouth delicious and all the sushi was yummy! They have fun fruit options such as a mango roll and a strawberry banana roll. The udon was perfect and our son loved everything too. Dimly lit ambiance and comfortable. The service was friendly and they never let our cups be empty. Overall it was awesome and I can't wait to return!!!! read more

First time coming here to eat AYCE sushi after the one closer to me shut down. The first thing I noticed was the the kitchen/appetizer items were not fresh. It was obvious they had been sitting in the freezer in a while due to the stale taste. The sushi itself however was pretty good. The sashimi slices are nice and thick. The specialty rolls were also on par with other AYCE locations I've visited. Only downside was that the eel sushi was too soft. It seems they would always break in half when trying to pick them up, but they tasted great anyways. read more

The fish is horrible quality, stringy and can't even chew. The stir fry is tasteless. I ordered the shrimp stir fry and it came with one shrimp lol. You order on a tablet and don't interact with the staff at all but they will add 18% gratitude on your check. This place is the most expensive all you can eat sushi around and the worst quality food. Save yourself the trip and food poisoning it's not worth it. Oh and not to mention there were little black bugs flying around. read more

Bug crawled out of noodles and still charged us. Never ate the food and left. Never going back. Telling everyone we know about are experience. Highly recommend staying away from. Steak was extremly tough. The 1 piece try to chew. Before bug crawled out of my 10 year old nieces noodles. read more

My favorite sushi place now. High quality and wide variety menu. We go here all the time.

Worst sushi in the state. 18% of service charge. The looking of the sushi is good but tastes nasty. No matter what kind of roll, inside are all cucumber. Top of the dragon roll is avocado with eel sauce. No meat inside of the roll. Nasty! Over priced! Worst experience! Make my day feel worst! Don't eat over here. read more

Party of two: Came for all you can eat sushi on a night where only half of the tables in the resturant were taken. Being that it was pretty empty, we assumed service would be decent. We placed our first order of appetizers promptly after arriving. After about 30 minutes of waiting, only half of our appetizers arrived. We then placed our second order of a few maki rolls and hand rolls hoping it would come shortly after the second half of our appetizers arrived. Spoiler, the second half of the appetizers never arrived and only some of the rolls ordered made it to the table. We waited another 40-45 minutes for the missing rolls to come out. By this point we were the only people in the ayce section of the resturant. We then placed a third order of miscellaneous things hoping the rest of what we ordered would arrive. Unfortunately, once again lots of what we wanted was missing. At this point we had been in the resturant for about 2 hours and were consistently being asked by our server if we were placing another order which we always responded with "we are still waiting for food from a previous order". By the end of our time at the resturant we were one of four tables still trying to enjoy a meal. We left hungry and confused as to why we spent so much money for only receiving half of what was ordered with so few people dining. Not only was service horrible, but an automatic gratuity and service fee was included. Meaning we had to tip extra on a meal that we didn't even get to fully eat. Very dissatisfied, will never visit again. read more

Never felt the slightest need to write a negative review until now. Came in, restaurant was empty and was asked "a la carte" or "all you can eat"? Immediately following me saying "all you can eat", the person seating us (likely the manager), shook his head and looked pissed. The reason for that? No idea. The waiters themselves were nice, but the food wasn't. One of the food items: a salmon taco, is quite literally salmon on a Pringle chip. We were one of the only ones in the restaurant, but the service was not outstanding to any degree. After asking for check and dessert, the "manager"/front desk guy came around to ask what flavor of ice cream. After I told him, he again shook his head and looked pissed. As confirmation, I was not the only one who saw this behavior. To top it all off, the check came with an 18% service charge that was not stated anywhere. Even if I were happy to pay 18% service charge, having that forced upon me with no warning and with subpar service and a nasty interaction is completely disrespectful and soured the experience. I tend to be positive, but I'm never coming back. read more

I wanted to give this place another shot given that it's been a few years and I was in the area craving some sushi. Don't make my mistake. It's worse than I remember. The seaweed salad had MAYO added in it. The tuna tartare was drenched with soy sauce. The salmon sashimi salad tasted like week old salmon. The deep fried sushi roll had SPOILED avocado in it. The shrimp tempura was not flakey and light like what you'd expect, but heavily crusted. The dragon roll (eel, avocado, cucumber) was basically a cucumber roll topped with avocado; you could barely make out the eel. If you couldn't tell, I do NOT recommend this place. There are so much better ayce sushi places. Edit: 1 hour later, a stomachache has commenced. read more

Sushi Prime 88 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

Expensive and poor quality. This is not a dining experience, it is a money making scheme. The All You Can Eat is designed to make you full with filler and skimp on fish. All Sushi is full of the most rice I have ever seen in a roll. They charge extra for what you don't eat, and fill everything with rice. Soups are loaded with pepper to make you drink water, and fill up on water. They add a mandatory 18% Gratuity on your check, and the servers don't pay attention to you. Will never go here again, strongly do not recommend. read more

Sushi Prime 88 - Sushi packed with Rice - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

This is your average sushi buffet. I called and made a reservation for Friday at 6:30 and there were plenty of tables available. Because of the pandemic, you're limited to two runs of sushi and appetizers. You get 2 pieces of paper of each and you write down how many you want of each item. It's fast service and they are extremely attentive with the drinks (came over every 15 minutes to see if we need refills). Ice cream comes at the end of the meal. Everything is mediocre but what can you expect for $26/person dinner weekend price? Will come again. read more

Sushi Prime 88 - various types of sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

We LOVE coming here when we're craving sushi! We used to go to sushiX but they started to fall off with the freshness of their sushi so we've been coming here since they opened and will never look back! We always get the all you can eat when we come which is a great price for the quality of food your getting in return. I like that they charge you for what you don't finish to prevent food waste and to deter people from over ordering and eating with their eyes! Fish is ALWAYS fresh, we've never had a bad experience here or left dissatisfied. Staff is always friendly and the place is always clean. I recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a good sushi spot! read more

The Sushi here is okay, the idea of all you can eat sushi for one price is the only reason we used to go here. We went back last night 12/23; for the first time in about a year and we were presented with a tablet to take and submit our order on. As nice of an idea this is the menu times out within 10 minutes so when you have 3 people trying to place an order and your taking turns it ends up timing out and then you have to start all over. As far as service goes it was not very busy last night and the time it took for us to get drinks or even refills was way too long. We were also very shocked when it came time for the bill to see that tip was included. I agree for tables of 4+ people that this should be the case but when there's 1-3 absolutely not. Tips should NEVER be EXPECTED and its mostly an ethnicity thing that tips are expected in establishments like this. It's unaccept to include tips when you the service is only bringing you food a quarter of the time. Plus no one notified us nor was there any signs that specified tips are included. When going to use the restroom it had just been cleaned but apparently their idea of cleaning was to dump a bucket of water over the toilets because there was a pool under my feet while using the rest room, no wet floor signs in sight. Unacceptable. We will not be back! read more

Never again, I understand eat what you can, but be upfront with the charging food price... extra 40 dollars is insane and greedy. read more

Normally the service there is prompt but they've gone down hill. I ordered for pick up for 3 California rolls and it took 1 hour and 15 minutes after I put the order in. There were people waiting to sit down over 20 minutes for a restaurant that wasn't full and they had 4 sushi chefs on duty while the waiters were running around like chickens. 8-23-2023. read more

For my first time here I chose the all you can eat option, and it was relatively disappointing. Most of the food that I tried was flavorful and delicious, however some of the food was not as good as I had hoped. Also, after our first order of all you can eat food, the service speed and quality quickly declined. For the price and the included gratuity, I did not appreciate feeling pushed out the door after our first order. The restaurant was clean, though, and I felt comfortable dining here. read more

Such a bad experience. They're basically serving 80% rice with maybe 20% fish. If you actually like sushi, please don't bother coming here. It's basically a money making scheme. They're not serving quality food here. When we sent back the extra rice, the chef got so upset and actually came to our table and told us that we CANNOT leave any rice. read more

I've been to sushi prime quite a few times. Of late the quality is gone down a little bit. The portions are a little smaller. I do enjoy the small plate tapas version of this facility and bringing out the sushi. The sushi is still good. They've put a few new offerings on their menu since they first opened, but some of their cooked offerings are lacking in some of the flavor that they used to have and as I said the portion on the plate has gotten a lot smaller. I do suggest if you've never had sushi or like that idea of like tapas, this would be a good restaurant in Clifton Park to check out. It is a little pricey, depending on the time of the day that you do go in. It's not an every day visit place like your other franchises. It's definitely a good date night or special occasion restaurant to pop into. read more

We love their all you can eat lunch menu. Just make sure you eat all of it! There are rules about ordering too much food so make sure you ask about it and are confident in your ability to eat it all. The sushi is great, the fish is fresh, the rolls are tight and well wrapped. The staff is friendly and attentive. A special shout-out to (I don't know his name) the host who's got really spiky hair. Authentic Japanese beer is available by the bottle which is pretty cool. read more

Sushi Prime 88 in summary is delicious and worth the price. Pro: -There are so many delicious options from appetizers, sushi, sashimi and hand rolls -The sushi portions were perfect. It's not like they're trying to fill you up with a roll with all rice and barely any meat. Everything is portioned just right. -They give you free ice cream at the end! -Nice clean atmosphere Cons: -We ordered some appetizers to touch up our lunch. However, we got it after we paid and thought they had forgot. Bad service on their end, but its no big deal. Good food made was all we asked for. Tips: -Try to get a sense of what you want and mark it. I would order everything in the beginning so that you dont have to order again and waste your time. Even though they make it fairly quick. read more

Sushi Prime 88 - So many options from their buffet! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

A pretty good sushi place with a very interesting atmosphere. It was dimly lit and felt like you were in a nightclub from all of the array of lighting they had going on. A little over the top if you ask me. We were offed the all you can eat sushi menu, but opted out for the regular menu as we were not looking to pig out. The price that they want for it was very enticing though. I got the Deep Fried Rocket Roll which has white tuna, jalapeño, masago with spicy mayo and eel sauce. You get 8 rolls from this specialty roll and it is served hot. I really enjoyed this roll a lot, just a heads up, the jalapeño spice will sneak up on you and kick you in the ass. Service was good and they are as tentative as they can be. You can always get their attention immediately when you need something. Looking forward to be next visit. Maybe fast one day just to binge on their all you can eat sushi offer. read more

Sushi Prime 88 - Deep Fried Rocket Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

Just get schooled before you go. I paid for the "all you can eat" for me and my hubby and my teen chose ramen. First, there was no one to seat us but we were acknowledged by some busy folks at a sushi station so we found a table. After a few minutes we got up to find some kind of menu near the entrance, and a waiter finally came over and took our orders. The interior was lovely and clean. However, we had no idea of their rules (since there was no greater) . While it's a given that an all you can eat shouldn't be shared, the hubby cajoled my teen to try a particular tasty looking piece. Well holy smokes a older waiter teleported to my side with a sheet and demanded (with slightly restrained resentment and very bad English) that we order more since we are now being charged another "all you can eat" for my teen. One piece warranted this. My hubby was fuming, since my teen didn't even want to try anything else. He came over again and I declined. I wasn't sire what to do. After about 5 minutes a man came over, and identified himself as the owner and told us we didn't have to purchase another "all you can eat" . I explained the situation and he apologized. However the older man stared at us the whole time. It truly wasn't worth it. read more

Fairly solid experience, did the buffet option and there are a good amount of options for appetizers and sushi rolls. The service is fairly prompt though I did feel bad for the one waitress running around serving all the tables in the restaurant (she was super kind though!). The food is alright, good portions though taste is OK. Nothing to write home about. What really iffed me about the establishment though is that the entire place feels incredibly cheap. The music is covers of songs from 2010s and the booths move with you if you scoot any way. It felt like the owner cheaped out on the actual dining experience. If that was improved I would definitely rate this place higher. read more

I've been here three times in the past year and their service is amazing. AYCE menu is normal, nothing extraordinary. Sashimi slices are very small. Almost three times smaller than if you were to order per piece. The decor is nice and dim. The last time I was there a fly had landed on the fish. The owner (assumed to be) noticed and approached us to ask about outlet curious faces staring at the salmon sashimi. He immediately took the plate and replaced it with a new order. 5/5 service 4/5 food 3.5/5 decor read more

I was back recently and too much has changed for the worse. First, the all-you-can-eat price for weekdays is now $28 and for weekends which includes Friday it's $30. No brainer, it's not worth it! To my knowledge, that makes it the highest priced all you can eat sushi in the capital region. I don't like Wasabi, but it is clearly better and cheaper. There is a new twist that I don't understand and don't like. The Yaki Tori (grilled chicken on skewers) came out fried not grilled. Actually, it was awful and the only time in my life someone fried them. It was never fried here before. So, someone is in charge, but it's not the old regime. It's sad, but I'm done here. read more

I thought "service fees" had to be announced beforehand? I could be wrong. Went for sushi and when we got the bill there was a $12 service charge along with a 15% tip. There were only two of us at the table. I was not told of the service fee until I got the check. Needless to say all they got was the 15% tip and their ridiculous service fee. Shame on them. I like to consider myself a good tipper but to add your tip to a bill for a table of two? To top it all off I had to stop at a local store to pick up a few items and within minutes of getting there I was running to the bathroom to get sick. While eating at Sushi Prime my stomach was telling me the sushi wasnt fresh but I ate it anyway. Sure enough it made me sick within a half hour of leaving. I won't be returning. read more

Stopped in here on Saturday night after playing hockey nearby. I'm generally not a fan of all-you-can-eat sushi establishments, but it was on the late side... and Sushi Prime 88 was still open. And I was hungry. Hockey-hungry. First, the place is tremendous. It wasn't busy...but it was about 9:30pm...and they literally opened within the last week or so. It's extremely clean and the manager/owner(?) was really friendly. Food arrived quickly and water was refilled frequently. The sushi was good. We ordered fairly basic stuff - a few rolls and a few pieces. As expected, the slices of fish on the sushi were not very big, but the chunks of salmon in the Alaska rolls were surprisingly generous. The cuts on the sushi rolls were quite big and there's plenty of rice beneath each piece of nigiri. I tried the spicy salmon sushi - not my cup of tea. Too heavy on the tempura flakes; I'll stick with the basic stuff. My only real complaint was that the 2 pieces of eel were served cold. The consistency was a bit chewy; unagi should be served warm to hot (and should not be chewy). FYI - an 18% gratuity is automatically added to the bill. We added some extra for the good service. They have 2 different menus to order from - cooked stuff from the kitchen and the sushi menu. I'm giving them a pass (for the cold unagi) since they literally just opened their doors. It's a very good location with a nice sized parking lot. Will try them again sometime in the future; I wish them good luck and success. read more

I'm sure that excellent AYCE sushi is available somewhere, but I have yet to find it. Even so, I stopped in for a weekend late lunch at this AYCE restaurant in a corporate strip mall with low expectations, and was not disappointed. The experience was not the most pleasant, but not the worst either - more of an McD experience: edible, I guess. I sat down at the end of the spacious 6-seat sushi bar surrounded by weird blue lighting, but no annoying TV or loud music. The chefs were polite enough, but rushing to prepare for even the small crowd in the restaurant (photo). I tried to steer away from the AYCE menu, and simply order à la carte, but in hindsight, the price would have been about the same (including the 18% gratuity added to all AYCE orders) because almost everything was on both menus. I ordered my usual couple of maki and bunch of nigiri. The soup was not bad, and was followed quickly by my main, served on one of those "boat-shaped" wooden plates (photo), which I have never liked. I just don't think that they can ever be properly cleaned - at least it wasn't one that had those tiny nets attached. The decoration around the main was simple, and the preparation was not too bad. Unfortunately, the taste was as to be expected at AYCE, beginning with the very lightly seasoned rice - much less than I prefer. One maki, the bland, non-spicy salmon paste covered in sauce, tried its best to cover the less-than-appealing taste of bargain fish. It failed. On the high end was the saba, which probably just came out of a vacuum-sealed pouch - and it is already one of the cheapest cuts. Even the tamago had substantial room for improvement with its suspiciously high water content. But the main reason patrons enjoy AYCE is cost. How does the restaurant make a profit at a low price point? One way is savings from lower cost of ingredients. We all know this. And this is one of the cheapest sushi restaurants in the area. I've had worse AYCE, but that can't really be a recommendation. It will most likely be quite a long time before I return. 2019 04 13. S read more

Good: Gyoza had a great filling and was perfectly cooked. Bad: Shrimp tempura roll - tempura was soggy and shrimp was overcooked and very tough.

I am a big fan of cheap eats and quality sushi and need to remind myself occasionally that the two don't go together. But if you are looking for AYCE sushi Sushi Prime 88 is probably a good choice and the value is excellent, especially at lunch. The big menu allows you to order various Japanese and Chinese appetizers along with nigiri sushi and rolls. I asked for edamame and got a big, good portion that was hard for one person to finish. (They frown on uneaten food and threaten to charge you extra for it.) Also available: seaweed salad. If you like this pricey stuff it's a treat to be able to order as much as you want. Stay away from the "spicy" seaweed salad however that has some strange creamy dressing and is not spicy. I ordered a spicy tuna roll and the spider roll and both were big on filler ingredients. I'd stick to nigiri sushi if I were you, especially saba (pickled mackerel) which I could eat all day. This fish doesn't have the quivering freshness of never-frozen sushi grade, but it's perfectly edible. I would not however order it as sashimi, which is available at dinner but not lunch. There are also some nice fried scallops and calamari rings which are served in small manageable portions with a tonkatsu dipping sauce (sweet and thick). There is no dessert, oddly. There is miso soup which I oddly forgot to order and udon if you want to fill yourself up with noodles instead of protein. The space is big, clean and modern and service was extremely friendly. If anything the waitstaff was too aggressive in repeatedly asking me if I wanted to fill out a new menu sheet. Tea (initially lukewarm but later hot after my complaint) was complimentary. Note that an 18% percent service charge is added automatically to the bill, though you may feel like adding a bit more. read more

All you can eat sushi for $28.99 ! Good selection and delicious sushi. Definitely recommend. The sushi rice was a little bit warm but I'd prefer it to be a little warm and know it's fresh than to be eating stale rice. I had miso soup (x2), tuna tartare, rock shrimp (x2), shrimp shumai, lots of sushi (tuna, white tuna, tako, squid, eel, and yellowtail), and the tiger roll all for $28.99, such a good deal! read more

Sushi Prime 88 - Tiger Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clifton Park, New York

Never again. $22 for 4 pinky-sized strips of "steak". Soup with giant hunks of some kind meat that wasn't even close to being chicken. Oh, and they didn't deliver one of the meals in our order. When we called them, they wouldn't send the delivery guy back out. Had to pick it up ourselves. Bad attitude and gross food for a lot of money. You're literally better off going to price chopper and buying the pre-packaged beef stir fry from the meat dept and a bottle of teriyaki sauce. read more
