    Sashimi platter
    Steven L.

    AYCE sushi has officially landed in Cordova, and it delivers. For around $30, you get an impressive spread--from fresh sashimi and hibachi to creative specialty rolls that keep the orders coming. The crab puffs are a must-try: perfectly crispy on the outside with a rich, creamy center packed with cream cheese and crab meat, easily some of the best we've had. The Yellowtail on Fire was another standout with bold flavor. With this much variety at this price, you honestly can't beat it. We'll definitely be back.

    Excellent service from the moment stepping into this establishment. This was our 1st visit and we enjoyed the atmosphere, our very friendly and attentive server, and of course all the delicious food. We picked the all you can eat menu and had fun ordering items throughout our dinning experience, giving us a relaxing experience. The food runners are polite and quick to take away empty plates, to keep our table clean and clutter free...thank you! We thought everything was fresh and delicious. Next time, we will come and enjoy the happy hour specials.

    My husband and I have been waiting to try this new Japanese restaurant since it opened. We were drown to the variety of foods that you could secure at relatively cheap price point. We went to dinner which is $30 per person. I started with miso soup and the shaggy dog rolls, which were similar to California rolls. Both were tasty. On the other hand, the hibachi rice was just OK. My husband also got a few different rolls and rice, all of which he really enjoyed. We skipped dessert, but that was an option on the menu. We went on a Thursday evening, which is a slow night. It seems, but our food came out relatively quickly, except for my husband's last order which never came. We waited for about 20 minutes and then they said something was wrong with the original and they were remaking it so we waited another 15 minutes and then we decided to just go. The house was fine and the service was also fine. The drinks were not the best. However, the bartender did recommend a cold sake that had a milky texture. It was fantastic (though overpriced). The ambience is nice, especially for a quick date night during the week. I did see a couple people as well who brought children, so it seems to be family, friendly as well. I hope to go again and be able to update this review with more glowing feedback. It has potential.

    The all you can eat was definitely great! Food being made to order! Shrimp tempura were amazing along with the egg roll! Our server Ayu was phenomenal. Nice location by the wolfchase mall! The music was a vibe!

    Truly life changing experience. the tv had a meerkat on it very entertaining. Our server was the absolute most patient and kind. They came out and sang happy birthday and gave a little slice of cheesecake on a happy birthday plate. It's very clean. Nice bathroom. 100% coming back.

    This restaurant is a hidden gem! Very centrally located to everything. Some of the best service, food quality, and the picturesque atmosphere transporta you somewhere thousands of miles away

    If you're open to a buffet-style situation, then this will be a fine experience for you. You order what you want throughout the meal with the idea that you shouldn't be wasteful and order more than you will eat. The service is great -- very attentive and helpful with recommendations. The more traditional rolls and sashimi were great. Some of the specialty rolls were also solid but others were a bit over the top for me.

    Crab puffs (rangoons)

    What a fun concept! All you can eat, made to order (as in not a buffet). Small bites so you can try many things on the menu. Tons of options - soup, salads, appetizers, main courses, sushi, dessert. We ate a lot more, but have a sampling in our photos! Everything was delicious. I will say the broccoli tempura and the spring rolls were a bit soft/squishy. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our meal. $29 for all you can eat is also delicious lol! Our server was on top of it, absolutely incredible. The decor is fun! We will definitely return!

    We decided to give the new all you can eat restaurant a try as our daughter was in town for college and loves sushi. The restaurant is super clean and nice inside and had an excellent vibe. Our server Chris L. Was brand new, but super friendly and helpful. Our daughter got the all you can eat buffet which is $28.95. Make sure you come hungry so that you can take full advantage of all the restaurant has to offer. My husband and I ate off the regular menu and were very pleased as well. The fried rice had a great flavor and the gyoza was crispy but still really good. All the rolls that we tried were of great quality as well. We will definitely be back again. Not sure How many times we could do the all you can eat, but the a la cart pricing is comparable to other Japanese restaurants in the area. Give them a shot if you are in the area.

    I came here with my in laws to celebrate. There are lots of things to pick from on the dinner menu. I liked the cucumber salad, hibachi chicken and steak, and fried rice. But not enough that I would want to come back. It was just ok to me.

The…read moresushi is ridiculously fresh, perfectly rolled, and basically disappears the second it hits the table. And the fried rice? Absolute flavor bomb--savory, buttery, and loaded with that classic hibachi magic that makes you keep saying "just one more bite"... about 12 times. 10/10 would absolutely demolish this meal again. If you leave hungry, that's honestly a personal choice.

    1. Their ingredients tasted super fresh & the sushi rolls we got were really good!…read more 2. The staff here were incredibly friendly and we got our food with a quick turnover considering how much sushi our table ordered. 3. The prices here are VERY great. You can get very affordable sushi here. 4. They were open when neighboring sushi restaurants were closed. (Midday between lunch & dinner) That said, there are no frills here. We got the very basic sushi which were $4.99 a roll (!!!!) or 2 for $9.99 and that came with a miso soup! We tried: cucumber roll, California roll, spicy crunchy crab, and spicy California roll. They were all priced within that price range I mentioned and we were happy with nearly everything. Know that when they say a cucumber roll-- it's literally JUST cucumber inside rice & seaweed. I did not expect that and wouldn't get that one again. Also, the spicy sauce that came on their spicy rolls was overpowering in a bad way. Next time I'll get it on the side or without the sauce all together... you just couldn't taste the sushi or anything except the sauce. (And there was way too much sauce on it, IMO.) All in all? We'd come back again. My daughter really loved the artwork on the walls of the restaurant so huge kudos to whoever did the art inside because it really is breathtaking.

I love the sauce, and you can definitely tell the oysters are fresh. Next, we had the steak and mashed potatoes -- the steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The lobster bisque was my starter, and it was honestly one of the best I've had in a while. The only small disappointment was the dessert , pineapple upside down cake. It seemed a little overcooked because it had a slightly burnt taste at the bottom. Overall, the service is always 10/10, and I'd give the food a solid 9/10.

Our server was barely attentive to our table. She went around checking on other tables near us, but hardly came to ours at all. The only time she really interacted with us was when she brought the check. No follow-up, no asking how the food was, no drink refills--nothing. It honestly felt like we were overlooked the entire time. To make things worse, she wasn't even the one who brought out our food. Someone else dropped it off, and after that we were basically on our own. For a restaurant at this price point, I expected much more attentive and professional service. The food didn't make up for it either. I ordered the Chilean sea bass, and it was very underwhelming. The fish lacked flavor, the potatoes were soggy, and overall it just wasn't enjoyable. Definitely not what you expect for the price. Overall, between the inattentive service and the disappointing food, the experience just didn't live up to the hype at all.
