Good food for a good price. The service is really good, servers, host, and food runners have amazing customer service skills. The ambience is great with Japanese aesthetic and soft lighting and music. read more

So glad this chain finally hit the DMV. The restaurant features a rooftop and comfy seating. My friends and I decided to celebrate our friend's bday with some quality cuts of A5 from their premium menu. Some of our favorite menu items include the sukiyaki shabu shabu, lobster roll, wagyu foie spoons, A5 Japanese Wagyu sandwich, Wagyu fried rice, toro sashimi and the matcha crepe cheesecake. What we really enjoyed about this place was the quality and speed of service. You could see the marbling in the buttery toro and fatty A5. We had an extra side tray to put all of our empty dishes. Highly recommend keeping an eye out on the tablet timer so you can constantly reorder once the queue clears. I'll definitely be back to try some of their à la carte menu items. The premium menu was plenty, but we did see diners order from the other menu. read more

Date Day with my boo. We went to the spa and then decided to stay in Virginia for Sushi. I felt tricked from Instagram and TikTok, which raved about this place. First off, if you miss the parking lot, it was a bit confusing so we ended up making a circle before finding the additional parking lot further before the restaurant, but we did end up parking in the lot next to the restaurant. Getting in and out of that space was not easy with that annoying red light right at the corner. When we walked in, we were greeted right away. Asked if we had reservations which we didn't but they did take a bit of time to seat us. Upon sitting down, we walked by the mini buffet of appetizers and desserts, along with the cooler of drinks. (The cooler was not cold, but held room temperature drinks, I had to ask for cups of ice which took a while) We sat and contemplated if we wanted to splurge on the higher package which we ended up doing any way because our neighbors who were also on a date and was there for the first time was testing the higher package also, so we went all out! There is a limit to how much you order and there is a 10 minute wait in-between each order and how many items you can order. Our server was very helpful and had walked us through the process. The cheesy lobster was so small, we ate it in one bite, and it's only one per table. The wagyu sandwiches were great, but lacked flavor. The creamy udon...was all cream. The best dish on the premium menu were the spoons of wagyu and toro, and the steamed clams in whatever broth. Shabu-Shabu with wagyu was okay. Broth flavor was decent, nothing overly memorable. I did like that it was all you can eat sushi and they had all you can eat Uni which is a plus, but you can tell the quality was not as great as expected. We didn't even bother with the rolls, since it would have limited us from the others, but then I wonder if we would have been better ordering the gazillion sushi roll options. They did great presentation-wise, but would I spend the money on the top package option? No. it was definitely a novelty dinner, something you try one time and say you've tried but maybe my expectations were high because of how I was sold on IG and TikTok. Even my boyfriend was upset with how I talked up the place. To top off the evening, I asked for matcha crepe cake and they brought me match cheesecake. I hate cheesecake. We did enjoy the hot sake! The place was busy and don't get me wrong, it's not horrible but I think I'm more upset for the price I paid for the quality I received. If the service wasn't decent, I would have given it less stars but maybe I came on a bad night and the Chefs were just not loving their cooking. Would I drive the hour and half to go back? Definitely not. I do hope they improve their quality and items. Just my experience here... read more

Went today to celebrate my birthday however this time it was very disappointing. We did the premium option and got the hot pot. First off, that was a mistake on our end. The hot pot made our table so hot. We've notified our waiter, who told the manager, but nothing was done. Not having ac in the restaurant is crazy, especially when outside was 92. It also made the food and experience not enjoyable. Very confused with the lobster roll. It was served with a cherry on the plate. The lobster roll had so much mayo on it. I think they had a power outage or something, and then continued serving the food because when my husband went to get drinks from the fridge, they were warm. He told the staff and they said they were aware. Besides that, the mentaiko udon was sour like it had gone bad. Overall, if we were to go back, we wouldn't get the premium option. It wasn't worth it for us. Hopefully they can get their AC fixed! read more

Parking: horrible. You have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting a spot. Reservations: you must have them Service: slow. Many commenters have complained that it's hard to eat a lot of food but my tip is just to order the max right away and get the food slowly. Pricing: it's already gone up $4 since this place opened less than a year ago for the regular menu. Eventually it will become too expensive. Food: honestly some of the best AYCE sushi I'd ever had. Do not get the sushi tacos Pro tip- wrap some sashimi around the wasabi fries. read more

Umiya Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I recently visited Umiya Sushi and had a really great experience, especially if you're someone who enjoys variety and all-you-can-eat options. They offer multiple AYCE tiers, which I appreciated depending on how much you want to indulge. Lunch starts at $26.99, with dinner tiers at $36.99 and $44.99, and a premium option at $74.99. I opted for the premium tier, and in my opinion, it's worth it if you want access to everything on the menu, including Wagyu and more elevated seafood options. The food quality stood out across the board. Some of my favorite dishes were the wagyu foie gras spoons, oysters with vinegar jelly, yellowtail jalapeño, and the salmon nigiri, which tasted very fresh. The cheese baked lobster and wagyu sliders were also highlights and not something you typically expect at a sushi spot. One thing that makes this place unique is the addition of hot pot. I tried both the mushroom broth and the spicy tomato broth, and I would recommend either depending on your preference--they were both flavorful and paired well with the available ingredients. To finish, I had the matcha crepe cake, which was a nice, light dessert to end the meal. Overall, this is a solid spot if you're looking for a wide selection of sushi, hot pot, and premium items all in one place. I'd definitely recommend coming hungry to get the most out of the experience. read more

Foods great and great service. The location is convenient off the main road and has lots of parking. It's all you can eat and has two menus, a regular and premium. We did the regular menu. There are so many options and everything we ordered was good. Sushi was good and the hot foods. They also had a bar of already prepared foods and some canned beverages part of the all you can eat. We did like the sesame balls were good and all the fried items came out fresh and piping hot. Food came out of the kitchen quickly and at a good pace. There were also a good amount of sweet treats/desserts to end the meal. Inside was nice and quiet and clean. Lots of tables that could serve parties of 4. Would come back! read more

I did a Too Good To Go order here just to try them out, and the little bento box was great. There is only a 15-minute window to pick up, so be there on time. We got there at 9:45 and didn't get bagged up and out until 10, but we loved it. It's very hot, so I'm sure they turn the AC off at night or adjust it since there won't be customer service. My sushi roll was spider crab, and I loved it. It's actually one of my favorites, so it was such a hit with me. The little gyoza and dumplings were great. The rose milk tea is making me want to come back for more. read more

The food was delicious the service was great but the ambiance was so beautiful also the drinks were amazing and I will return read more

AYCE sushi obviously. Top quality and the best AYCE in the Alexandria area. Good selection on the menu. I've been a few times now and will be back again. They don't overdue the rice like a lot of AYCE places in the area. Great service. They have a sauce station. Very good dumplings. A hidden gem here is the Mushroom cream soup. There really is so much to choose from here. Highly recommend. read more

We had the premium option to try as many things as possible. The cheesy lobster and Wagyu spoons were outstanding. My other favorites were: shrimp and veg tempura, shrimp dumpling on the buffet, tornado roll, royal tempera roll, shrimp hibachi and mochi. Good: duck salad, lobster roll, salmon lover roll, tuna tacos. I wouldn't order again: tuna tartare, sashimi sampler (dry, didn't seem too fresh), garlic scallop over vermicelli, and spicy lobster roll. read more

See all

The food was okay for the sushi I ordered. I did now at the shrimp tempura. They put two shrimp in the roll and it made it obnoxiously big to pick up and it was falling apart. There's an upstairs level and a downstairs level. We sat downstairs with a large party. The noise level was average. Upstairs look way more beautiful than the basement. You can order on the tablet and it puts a time limit on the ordering (7-9 minutes I believe) so you cannot order after you place your initial order. Our food took about 10-15 minutes to come out. I didn't have any alcoholic beverages... Only water. I will go back here again, but I would like to experience the all-you-can-eat menus, whether it is the regular or premium. Last but not least... the parking is absolutely HORRIBLE. A NIGHTMARE IF YOU WILL. WE HAD TO PARK ALL THE WAY AT THE SHOPPING CENTER BY THE GIANT AND WALK DOWN... NOT TO MENTION THAT NIGHT IT WAS RAINING SO IT WAS ANNOYING TO HAVE TO DO THAT. Location is terrible. read more

Quality of sushi was great! We got the premium option that was around $80 per person. The lobster and the Wagyu spoons alone were worth that price. I would not go to for the Wagyu sandwich again though. The sauce was too overpowering. The service was kind of slow. They forgot some of the food I ordered and left it in the kitchen. By the time we got some of our food it was just luke warm. I think this was because it was very busy though. They should hire more waiters. Parking was an absolute nightmare. Their parking lot is way too small for cars to go in and out so you have to take turns. They also refuse to seat you unless your entire party was there. My husband had to tell the hostess that I was still parking so they wouldn't give our table away read more

We came here during the week and opted for the AYCE lunch special at $26.99 per person. The place was pretty quiet so it did not take long for the food to come out and everything was fresh. Soup: my daughter enjoyed her miso soup but I didn't love the creamy mushroom soup. It was more of a corn soup (which I love) with mushroom added. My issue with it was that it wasn't quite hot and it was really thick like a gravy vs a soup and needed a touch more flavor. Sushi: Our favorite was the tuna fusion roll which I would definitely order again. The spider roll was good as well though a little difficult to eat because it was so big! We didn't love the Umiya roll as all we could taste was the sweet chili sauce, it really overpowered the roll. kitchen tasting: The takoyaki was really nice after brushing off some of the bonito flakes. It was nice and hot with great flavor. The karaage was also good with great texture and the sauce with it was tasty. Overall, we will probably go back and thought the food was better than a typical buffet. read more

Came here a little later than our reservation and they were gracious enough to honor the reservation for 2. Had the premium version and was able to order on the iPad. Know that there were several items that needed the waitresses to put in as they are limited premium orders They cleared dishes quickly so it was not crowded. Overall the food was good. There were several items that stood out like the garlic vermicelli scallops, the wagyu spoons. I wouldn't get the soon doo by again and be careful with the overpowering tastes of the carpaccios read more

Been wanting to try Umiya for a while since they have a really unique AYCE sushi menu plus a bunch of other options beyond just sushi. Parking is very limited, so make sure you actually read the parking lot signs so you know where you're allowed to park. The atmosphere: The restaurant is spacious with tons of seating, and it never felt cramped. Everything is ordered through a tablet, which makes it super convenient and easy to keep track of what you're getting. There's also a small buffet area with drinks (milk, teas, etc.) and some extras like small plates, salads, and even crab legs. The food: The options were pretty good, especially the variety of small plates and appetizers. My favorites were the miso butter mussels and the specialty rolls. Portions were solid, and everything felt like a good value for AYCE. The service: Service was friendly and overall good, but there was a noticeable wait for food to come out. It didn't even look that busy, but we still waited a while for our first round to arrive. read more

Heard good things about Umiya and some friends wanted to go. Reservations are through Yelp or OpenTable. It's located off Duke street and there are two small lots located on the same street. It was a Friday night so it was a little tough for us to get a spot at first. Luckily they took us in even though we were late. We got seated downstairs and were told the menu options. $36.99 for the classic (+$8 sashimi) and $74.99 for the premium. We got the classic with the sashimi add-on. All ordering is done via tablet and you're allowed 12 (I think) items at a time with a 10 minute time limit between orders. Each order isn't too big but if there's a kitchen back up then everything could come out all at once which happened to us so keep track of your orders! Pretty good for an all you can eat spot. It can get busy but if you're hungry, it's worth checking out. read more

See all

We went and you can now order from the iPads yourself. We did see an issue where some items didn't come out. The pricing and items in the classic selection has changed. I feel torn. I am not sure if the ordering from the iPad system was still new when we went. The amount of time in front of the server was a lot less so issues weren't addressed. Which would be ok if the system worked. For me negative was being out of Diet Coke. Most of their drinks are sugared at the cooler so this is my best option. With it being out that is a bit of a negative for me. Not that I loved the mochi ice cream but even that is in the expensive menu now. Something changed with the tropical salmon dish. The texture was really grainy and didn't taste as good as other visits. We ordered a few to see if it was just one plate. But it was all of them. Overall still good just not sure we'd be as enthusiastic to pick this spot. read more

I have been wanting to try Umiya for a while, but have been hesitant because...how can an all you can eat sushi restaurant be good? Well, I got my answer. The folks at Umiya actually figured it out! First off the menu is massive. When you are seated they have an iPad at the table that you use to browse and order items. Beware that after you place your first order there is a timer that does not allow you to order again for 10 minutes. Also, there is a 90 minute limit, so take that in into account as well. The nigiri sushi was good. Of course, not high end sushi, but not bad either. Just about average to slightly above average. We enjoyed the salmon and hamachi best. Also, I highly recommend the unagi don (pictured), which was fresh and the unagi was so tender and falvorful. The appetizer dishes are not to be missed. The salmon carpaccio was excellent and the avocado salad had a wonderful miso dressing. They also have a small hot/cold bar for people doing the all you can eat. The dim sum was just shumai, but it was surprisingly good. I also tried the snow crab legs, which people seemed to be avoiding, but I thought they were very good despite being small and served cold. Also, they have a lunch menu that is reduced price during the week as well as a happy hour from 3-5 pm with drink specials. Overall we had a great experience. Our server was very kind and friendly. The food was so good we would definitely go again. I think it is a good value for the price and a must visit for ALX sushi lovers! read more

Pros: The food!! The minute you enter the restaurant, you are nicely greeted with an assortment of starters: cold crab legs, oysters, dim sum, fruit, and refreshments (milk teas, Asian carbonated sodas and drinks). These items are a part of the AYCE but you have to get them yourself. Once seated, you can order sushi, rice, noodles, salads, more appetizers, desserts, you name it. There is an iPad for you to review (comes with photos) but you must order with the server. Our group paid for the premium AYCE which came with lobster and wagyu. If you don't care for these premium items, you can certainly sign up for the classic/standard AYCE, as it still comes with a ton of options. Con: Parking. Come early and check the two parking lots near the restaurant. Space is limited and tight. read more

If you want a lot of good food for not a lot of money, then Umiya Sushi is the place for you! Conveniently located on Duke Street in Alexandria, we were amazed at what $36 can get you. How about all you can eat crab legs, a large variety of sushi, and a plethora of other Asian menu items that will have you fat and happy. This modern designed Asian Fusion restaurant was definitely worth the drive and the next time we want to indulge and just try different Asian cuisine items to find our favorites, we'll be heading back to Umiya Sushi, quick, fast and in a HURRY.... but take my advice and make reservations, it gets super crowded!!! read more

UPDATE - We went back to Umiya last night and some changes have been made but not for the better. First, they've increased the price for the already expensive premium menu. Second, they removed some of my favorite menu items (lava bun). They got rid of a lot of items from the buffet - like their beignets and other desserts. And third, most of our food came out cold (twice) from the kitchen, and took forever to get to the table. Some items we ordered never arrived. Also, we noticed the cuts on the sushi rolls and nigiri weren't as precise as before. It's really disappointing!!! We had 2 really good experiences before. read more

WOW! WOW! WOW! 3 Wows! That could sum my review up but let's start off by saying I've never been to an all you can eat SUSHI, I mean I've been to the Hot Pots in the area that have sushi on the menu but this is a whole all you can eat Sushi spot. Sushi lovers this is a love affair you don't want to wait for. Thanks to my ying to my yang, I'm always going to be at the newest restaurants in the DMV area. Gotta love a foodie! Well I had never heard of this place and I'm surely glad it's not near me; otherwise this might be a weekly spot for me! Parking is a nightmare so beware but other than that one issue everything was AMAZING! Ambiance is a casual vibe! Come wearing your stretchy pants! You get seated, pick your option, and eat your heart out; in that order! We weren't too hungry and opted for the cheapest option which I was full off of one round of orders! Let's get into it! Shrimp Tempura with Veggies was my favorite! Spider Roll was great! Edamame was perfect! Royal Tempura Roll was great! Steak and Shrimp Teriyaki delicious! Avocado Salad- Perfect! All this for less than $40! I hope you already have this bookmarked! See you there! read more

I want to start out by saying all of the food was delicious. There was a good variety and everything was well prepared. Inside is really pretty! Cons: * parking lot is very tiny so its really hard to find decent parking close by * food is ordered at the table with an ipad which is great. We had a lot of trouble with orders not going through. There was no clear way to track what was already delivered and what was in process. The ipad system could use some tweaks. * price is pretty high for the amount we were actually able to get during our 80 minute time frame. We spent more time waiting for food then we did actually eating. So really do not feel like we got our money's worth. At tomes we were waiting for several things for over 30 minutes * finally the entire ordering system was very conufusing and we had to wait 8 minutes between placing orders which also slowed things down I would not return based on tonights dinner. Maybe once they have fixed a few things I would consider retrying. read more

First time here for Christmas Diner. Food is great especially the Uni and the Wagyu Sandwich. I like the proportion of their items so you get to taste more when you did the AYCE. We choose the premium AYCE which is about $75 per person, sodas and some Asian beverages are included in the price. That gave us the option for sashimi, Uni sushi, Wagyu sandwich or Cheese banked lobster and other premium items. I am a Uni lover and I highly recommend that. Service is great. And I recommend to make a reservation if you can. read more

Delicious sushi rolls. The tornado roll takes the cake for me! Likewise, the gyoza are a must order item every visit. I'm considering getting the membership, I just love this place! Oh! The tuna tartare and yellowtail are also mandatory. Excellent vibes on the rooftop. The server upstairs is always very pleasant. read more

Umiya Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

This is a decent sushi and seafood buffet! But there's waiting involved and you have to order with the waitstaff. So, I'd say it's more of an AYCE place similar to those kbbq spots instead of buffet. It's 39.99 per person (but $48-55 with tax and tip, depending if you order alcohol). We ordered kitchen starters, which were appetizers of delicately sliced fish - salmon and yellow tail. Quite small but delicate. Our favorite was the salmon with a slight hint of yuzu! There are a few small items at the grab-and-go bar, but the rest of the menu items you have to order online and wait. We each got a stone crab, which is not as flavorful as our local blue crab. But it had thicker chunks of meat! Wish I spent less time picking at the crab. Maybe it was a ploy for us to spend less time eating ;) (as you only get 90 minutes overall). so if I was you, I'd focus more on getting your money's worth from the sushi rolls and keep them coming! At the bar, they also served a piping hot, flavorful japanese steamed egg pot with slices of mushroom and imitation crab on top! Delish!! A must-have. At the table, we ordered from an iPad and a QR code from your phone. A bit annoying, as the user experience is not great on the app. You can order about 20 rolls per person at a time. Make sure you pace yourself because you can't leave an excessive amount of food waste! The rolls were great! I enjoyed the rainbow roll (with multiple fish) and the spider roll with soft shell crab. There was also a roll with white soy as the wrapper instead of seaweed, which was really fresh and nice. Our waitress was steller! Despite the crazy busy-ness, she was so helpful in clearing out dishes and answering our many questions. She even got me one of those free bubble teas when I mentioned it (also at the grab-and-go bar). It was a nice milk tea with lychee jello. For dessert, they had these green tea donut bites which were delightful and had good matcha flavor. They also had those throwback cups of ice cream that reminded us of childhood. A fun experience to try once! But of course not the fanciest sushi. Note: parking is limited here on the busy street. If the lot is full, you should do street parking near the residential area and walk over. read more

We drove from Richmond, VA for the day since we have seen Umiya on TikTok and Instagram Reels and had been wanting to give it a try. Food was 4/5, it took a bit of time for all the food from the first round to come out. Sashimi was fresh and the most memorable thing on the menu was the Wagyu Foie Spoons and Wagyu Nigiri. Everything was plated very well and we appreciated the presentation of each dish. I'd recommend steering away from the more "carb heavy" food such as the pasta, mentaiko udon, lobster quesadilla, and the tacos just to get more bang for buck. You order the food either via server or on an iPad and you can only order 20 items every 10 minutes during the 90 minute meal so I would be mindful of that. The service was great and they made sure to clear the plates as soon as we were done eating since we ordered just about the whole menu. Overall, we are happy we made the drive for Umiya and will return in the future. The plus side is that they have a small lot so you do not have to worry about looking for street parking. read more

This place ROCKS!!!!!! I went for the first time last week with my friend and was excited to try it after seeing it on TikTok a bunch of times. I went around 4pm on Friday and it wasn't busy at all so I was immediately seated! The servers were nice, the atmosphere and space was clean and the menu selection was massive! Loved that cheesy baked lobster is great! The premium option price don't let it intimate you if you come with an empty stomach you can easily get your money's worth. What I also love about this AYCE place is that unlike others that will charge you for food waste even if you only eat half of a roll, Umiya doesn't do that! Like there was some food like the hibachi I had where I ate the broccoli and the meat but didn't touch the onions or zucchini and they didn't penalize me for that!! It's great and it's more forgiving than other AYCE places I've tried! read more

Umiya Sushi - Cheesy Lobster - Japanese Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

honestly one of the best ayce dining experiences ive had in a while!! we celebrated my birthday here and my mom (who is notoriously picky) loveeddd everything she got to try. price we paid is 80$/person for the premium ayce but its worth every penny!! per person you get to choose from half baked lobster or wagyu sammy. ya also get 2 wagyu froi gras spoons per person. everything else is ayce INCLUDING BOBA MILK TEA!! the service was quick n friendly we got to connect w our server (i forgot his name omg but he was so nice from indonesia!!) i did wish that they seated us on the middle floor instead of the bottom floor (bc i had to go upstairs for the boba, dimsum, and cold bar) but each level was decorated beautifully!! theres also elevators + restrooms on each level!! i cant wait to go back if they dont raise the prices!! read more

We realized AYCE sushi might just be too much for us but if we were to do it again, we wouldn't mind doing it here. However, unsure the premium menu would be worth it the next time around. If you ask what the difference of the menus is, they simplify it to the sandwiches or cheese crab/lobster legs? Don't quote me on that, but the sandwiches were both heavy and the mustard on the bread didn't necessarily elevate the way you'd hope based off of the fact that's what they advertise as the main difference between Premium and Regular AYCE. What we did like was the wagyu nigiri. I ate before my camera & I enjoyed my bite. The quality of the sushi for AYCE was good, and unlike other AYCE sushi places, this place has speed on all orders. The customer service was friendly and the manager checked on us. Lots of parking available. Would come again. read more

Rounded up to 4.0 stars The staff was very friendly and tried their best to help and be accommodating despite it being so hectic on a busy Saturday night I came here for a friend's birthday dinner last Saturday night, we had a group of 19 and they seated us in the downstairs section where a lot of other groups were as well The ordering is kind of confusing at first because they give you a tablet but you have to tell your server what you want to order. Some of the items came out later than expected, but for most part it was decently timed for a huge table. We got the premium for $69.99 per person which I feel like is a bit steep but I enjoyed some plates of the hot bar upstairs of steamed crab legs, the Dungeness crab, and they have an unlimited boba / drink fridge included in the AYCE which is great. The nigiri and sushi quality is on par with what you'd expect at AYCE sushi, comparable to the ones around the area. Not the greatest but everything was decently good. The wagyu spoons were thinly cut beef and so was the wagyu rice but I get it would be a huge cost to them. You can also choose one out of two premium items per person: Cheesy lobster or Wagyu sando. My bf chose the sando and I did the lobster and we shared, same like most of our friends at the table. Overall, not a bad option if you want seafood and sushi in big quantities or a large variety of food! Also soft drinks and teas are included too, as well as desserts They also brought out a big lit up sign and sang happy birthday to our friend (and like 6 other tables lol), the staff was super nice and that's a good touch for a celebration read more

The food was really good! It's all-you-can-eat, which is always a plus, but it can be a little tricky figuring out what everything is since not all items have descriptions. The karaage chicken was well-seasoned and crispy, the crab was fresh, and the sushi overall was 10/10. The star of the show was the cheese corn! I would order 10 of these if I could. Some items, like the salmon crackers, had a strong wasabi kick I wasn't expecting, so just a heads-up for anyone sensitive to that! The restaurant itself is beautiful, and our waiter was incredibly attentive, sweet, and outgoing. Definitely a great spot for a fun dinner and good vibes. read more

I tried this place twice in the last two weeks: the classic menu with my friend & premium menu with my partner & his friends. I think my main takeaways for the following: Pros: -They have a good menu with lots of options to try different things. I appreciate that they have more higher end items than I've seen from other acye places in the area. I liked the fish quality especially the scallop, fatty tuna, & salmon. -Food didn't take too long to come out -They have some food & boba to keep you occupied while waiting for food to come out (I only had the fruit tea with popping boba and it wasn't too sweet) Cons: -The tablet at the table isn't very functional. You can't make orders from it and it's just clunky and seems useless. I ended up just scanning the QR code & making a list on my phone. It's also hard to do as a group since you may end up ordering duplicates -You have to rely on the server for ordering so it's best to be prepared and order in advance -The photo printer thing was fun the first time but the second time, the photo was too dark so it didn't work as well. Plus I wish it was away from the line to come in. read more

I'm very disappointed with the place. Let's start from the beginning. The parking is good, they have a lot on the premises. That's is very helpful. The atmosphere is nice and fun the place looks well kept and well decorated as well. They have all you can eat with a buffet and soft drinks are included as well as the dessert. The menu comes in an iPad form but still needs to order from the waiter. They have an all you can eat traditional and deluxe. The food is ok. Now for the not so great things. Out waiter gar a vibe that he did not wanna be there. He nearly had to be called every time we needed to order. We were on the second floor and had to go to the first to get our drinks. We were not super angry at that but it adds up. The food was ok but not all fish tasted fresh to be honest. We had to ask for soy sauce, ginger and wasabi. The food started to come and none of that was provided. We also were missing one entire set of plate and chopsticks that we had to steal from the next table. And the floor had only 4 tables in use so it is not like it was busy or anything. Honestly the vibe of the server was off... he really gave the vibe that he did not wanna be there. We will come back to try the deluxe menu, give it another chance perhaps. But honestly the impression we had was not the greater this time around. read more

Interesting place, could definitely do without or find better elsewhere. We waited approximately 15 minutes to be assisted once sat. Strongly disliked the iPad they use as a menu. You can't order off it and it gets rather draining scrolling up and down. Staff was friendly and made up for the lack of attention. Apparently the host sat us at an unassigned table so there was a small confusion. Food was decent. I heard great things about the Wagyu Fried Rice but I found it to be oily and subpar. The food actually resembles the taste of a Chinese buffet just with better selections as this would appear to be an upscale buffet when you're doing the all you can eat. The parking lot was atrocious. I have an odd feeling they didn't think of parking when planning this location. It's just tight and you have a fear of your car being dented after dinner. I wouldn't return on my own accord. Only if someone asked to go even then I would be opposed to going. Sidenote: I did have my friend who was with me look at this review prior to posting. They agreed it was accurate so I hope it helps. And apparently we have another friend who came here before and did not do the all you can eat. They were there forever as serviced lacked in that area. read more

I went to Umiya to get sushi. I overlooked that this place was an all you can eat sushi place. When I walked in I was told it would be a 10 minute wait for one person. I sat down at the sushi bar while I waited. There was a smell from the bar area but thankfully I didn't have to wait long. There are two options for the all you can eat sushi which also gives you access to the buffet. I strongly suggest coming with an appetite. You can scroll and look through the items on the tablet but I think a physical menu would have been just as good. Overall the sushi was good. The entrees were on the smaller side but perfect enough for you to try several different menu items. The parking situation is not the best. The spots are small. There is another lot that is within walking distance. read more

This place offers a variety of sushi and Japanese dishes for the AYCE menu. The quality was also pretty good!! My group and I decided to do the classic option and we felt like the options were pretty good. They also offer more dishes in a small food bar and other drinks/desserts. I also liked how you can order sashimi instead of nigiri. The fish quality was pretty good as well as some of the appetizers/dishes. My top favorites were tako wasabi, truffle roll, tuna tartare, agedashi tofu, and yellowtail jalapeno. You have to order more dishes through the server which I thought was interesting. I thought you would just order through an ipad but our server made sure to check up on us often. read more

Our server was fantastic. He was able to explain everything and was super helpful in making sure we tried the best items on the menu. The place is also really spacious. Parking is horrible for such a large spot the lot is pretty small, so maybe uber here. The food was solid, I've had better. What they do well is their sushi. The rolls we had were their specialty rolls and were really tasty and fresh. The menu is huge, so go hungry. There were a ton of things I wanted to try, but just didn't have the room to do so. Some of the main dishes weren't really impressive, like the mussels and the short ribs (very chewy and tough). The lobster bake and wagyu sushi were really delicious! These are items you can only get 1 per person, but they are really worth trying. The lo mein was lack luster and kind of dry. No true flavor there. The pork belly buns were also not a fave and lacked flavor. The pork soup dumplings (which I found out were offered at the buffet section of the restaurant very late in my experience) were really good. If I knew they existed earlier (as they aren't listed on the menu) I would've had a few more. The cat nap drink was tasty and a cute picture moment. I'm on the fence about coming here again because while there are more things I'd like to try, I don't want to be disappointed. The items that were good were REALLY good but the others weren't anything too special unfortunately. I still think for the amount of food you get the $70 premier all you can eat price is good. read more
