Omg this is my new favorite place to go for sushi and ramen. The BEST all around in WNY. Empire State Roll (Deep Fried) was super delicious, Steak Spicey Miso Ramen and Shrimp Tonkotsu Ramen was also excellent. If you want the best sushi and Ramen this the place to go. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. This place is absolutely amazing!!!

Went there for the first time with my friend and her 2 kids, who had just went for their first time just a couple days prior! Dinner time, told a 15 min wait, perfectly understandable. We waiting in the car until they called to say they were ready. We all did the All You Can Eat. Ordering on the table tablet was easy. My only comment would be, it will be easier when all items have pictures attached, but everything had descriptions so you knew what you were getting. We did see the 90 minutes limit warning but we were there for closer to 2hrs and never once felt rushed or cut off. A couple items we ordered multiples of and were never told a limit. We also placed our orders semi staggered. Each person did their own first round and ordered. Then after ordered as wanted. I'd enjoyed my experien

I really do like this place it’s really nice in comparison to other all you can eats. The food was really good. The price is reasonable. I do recommend trying out this Japanese restaurant. Service was awesome really the best I’ve seen in Buffalo. Overall, 9/10. But I am very critical and have a list of critiques. There wasn’t much music or it’s in certain areas. The portions were very big for all you can eat (maybe consider more dishes to choose from but smaller servings). The placemats can be improved eventually not pressing. I have a couple more things but honestly you guys are a good place I think it’ll all work out.

My new favorite sushi restaurant for all you can eat AND in general, Has so much variety aside from sushi! The sushi itself is actually good quality, the sashimi didn’t taste frozen or like water. The sushi rolls had a great rice to fish ratio. The hibachi was soooo good! Juicy and not chewy steak! I could go on and on about the menu but it’s all you can eat so come try everything for yourself! The waitress was so nice too and friendly as if we weren’t even strangers!! They were also very accessible in their bathroom and supplied toiletries and perfume for ladies. Not necessary but a thoughtful touch. I would come back to show friends and family this place!

We normally go to a different all you can eat sushi place which is fantastic, however, this place is much better. Excellent food, service. Also, you order via iPad, which makes it fast as well. Definitely try this place
