This is a huge place with lots of seating and huge variety of food. We spent 1 and a half hours there as the food was unending. Everything was delicious and fresh. We loved the dumplings and so so many varieties of sushi which were freshly made. The salads and deserts were amazing too. The main course was okay and the fried rice was very bland but no complaints as we didn't have much room to eat by then. Great service and lots of food. A thumbs up from me! read more

Took my girlfriend here and she got sick from the food. There were certainly some good things: the salmon Sashimi, the desert table, and the service of our waiter were all positives, so we did enjoy the first half our our visit... But something (we suspect the shrimp) turned her stomach and she spent the 2nd half of the evening loosing everything she had eaten in the washroom. This cast a rather unfortunate pallor over the evening as a whole and our subsequent opinion... The very minimum standard for a restaurant is that you can keep the food down- if that bar has not been cleared whatever other positives may have been are secondary... read more

Went there for lunch with a couple friends today. The wait staff was very nice and helpful. They even had one of those robot waiters. Alas that is where the pleasantries ended. All of the deep fried food tasted off! Like the oil it was cooked in was old or dirty. Everything that was supposed to be hot was cold. The sushi seemed like it was made yesterday. Will we ever go back? That would be a hard NO!! Be aware that they charge for sushi and sashimi you take but dont eat. read more

Save your money! Not worth the $35/person! This place has gone wayyyy down hill. Almost everything that was to be hot was cold. And the sweet and sour and saucy chicken beside it tasted awful and old. The server was nice enough to bring us some fresh stuff, but it was so drenched in oil you couldn't eat it, and one of the chickens was still bloody inside. Just fyi your getting Costco salads for the $35 you are paying. I watched as they filled up the potato, seaweed, and kimchi salads from Costco containers. What a joke. The sushi was somewhat decent but my favorite yam sushi was SO soggy. Will not be going back! What a waste of money and time. And let's just say all our stomachs aren't feeling the greatest after. read more

I checked out A+ Sushi a while back. Overall decent quality for AYCE. However, a lot of items didn't show up or they gave random portions...so I'd give it 6.5/10 read more

A+ Buffet Sushi & Bar - the sign - Buffets Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

This place is ok not bad but does need improvement food was ok place looks good but some food feel bland. soup was so unbearably hot my hand's actually started burning and the dessert was not a top pick for me. But the staff was nice but I saw no one there but 3 staff where is everyone? read more

That was perfect experience, food were fresh, enough space for everyone, good price. We will come back.

I was visiting this place from the USA and I have to say the food was delicious. The bathrooms were clean. They take pride in keeping their restaurant in good shape. I will definitely come back here again. read more

Went here as the first location wanted to do all you can eat was too long of a wait. The service here was really good and always on the ball when it came to collection plates or refilling drinks. The reason why I gave this place a 3 was because some of the food that was there was very stale. Had a few things that were either so hard that you couldn't bite into it or it had been out so long they it was super chewy. I would go again but hopefully not time won't have the same issues. read more

Went in tonight for my birthday dinner and was deeply disappointed with the whole experience. Cold food, empty items. My wife told them about one of the items being cold. They took what was left into the back, threw it in the deep fryer, and brought it all back out. Who knows how long it originally sat there under the heat lamp. The only thing good was the Coke and the Ice Shrimp. This place has gone downhill so much since COVID. What a waste of $80. We will not be back. read more

You get what you pay for. There were 2 of us out for dinner tonight at A+ Buffet Sushi & Bar. We discussed what we thought of the meal afterwards and decided that you do get what you pay for, and it was worth the price of dinner. The sushi and sashimi were limited, but tasted fine, the rolls were good; everything was okay, just not awesome. The Miso soup was good. The choice of chinese food was vast, a little bit of everything for everyone. It all looked really good, but seemed to be missing something. Everything was fine and the Hot and Sour soup was nice, and spicy. Service was good, and attentive, which was nice. The space was clean and bright. Considering the price of food these days, it was worth the price. It is a good place if you want to eat to much, for a reasonable price. read more

It's a little noisy because people are enjoying themselves and it is also open style. The Staff are extremely nice and welcoming and the food is amazing. I recommend this place 4.9 stars! read more

Came here on Friday with the family after a trip to Costco. The kids were hungry so we thought buffet would be good. Plentiful parking. The place was busy which I guess is a good sign. It is quite big inside and we were seated promptly. There is a good selection of cooked items like dim sum, noodles, rice, western Chinese fare, Korean short ribs, various soups. There was a good selection of sushi rolls, salmon sushi and sashimi. Cold section had lots of selection of salad, pickles and such. In the front there was shrimp, scallops, lobster claw, mussels, clams, and escargot. For dessert, there was a candy bar with sours and assorted treats. Cakes, mouses and such lined one aisle. Lots of flavours of ice cream and one feature of pineapple whip - our favourite. Service was great for the most part. They came by to take empty plates often. There was a couple of lulls where it took awhile to refill water but all in all it was good. Family was full by the end of it. Weekends are a bit more expensive then the rest of the week. We'd definitely come back. read more

So, it has warmed-up in Calgary but I still prefer Vancouver rain and green grass over the winter sun of Calgary. I have a Cuban friend in Calgary who is perplexed by how the sun can be so cold! Me, I think that Calgary sun is like love in a 15 year marriage, the anticipation is warmth but keep a parka at hand. In any event, the wife convinced me to leave the house with the promise of limitless good food for less than $20. It was not long after arriving at this place that I regretted my hesitation. This place has lots of parking, the decor is modern and clean. The food is served buffet style and it is abundant and flavourful. There are more than 50 dishes to choose from including a variety of sushi, warm dishes and dessert. The wife was happy and so was I. This is a place worth visiting when in Calgary. read more

Went for the buffet lunch, very disappointed, first off, in the quality of the food, tasteless,very poor selection. In my opinion, you certainly don't get what you pay for! Do not plan to go back anytime soon. read more

If only I'd known someone I knew had gotten food poisoning here before I went, I would've been spared this painfully mediocre experience. The food is warm at best and most pans were mostly empty. The sushi is dry and the rice is old and stale. There are signs saying "this is all you can eat, not all you can waste." Maybe people wouldn't waste so much food if it was a little more edible. read more

Nice place for big group lunch/dinner, met up with sibling so our party grew. Hubby saw a recommendation so checked out this buffet. Nicely located close to Chinook mall which is a bonus with good amount of parking right outside the restaurant. Greeted quickly by staff as we walk in around 5, staff was friendly and we were very quickly seated. Food choices are great with seafood and sashimi. Their sushi were made in house, each piece is perfect sized, small enough to each every roll they offer without feeling stuffed. As it is Sunday so during dinner they offer sashimi, they have both tuna and salmon and they were decent quality, they also have miso soup and tempura (veg and shrimp) that are not bad. Asian they have many types of fried noodles as well as fried rice, all are moist and tender. They also offer dim sum, they are on the low average but it's nice to try as well, they didn't forget the sweet and sour pork, chop Siu and lemon chicken, all of which are my middle child's fav. They have a table only dedicated to cold seafood, they have scallops, shrimp, mussels, sea snail and crab legs (and a couple more) a very good variety and it was good. At the end of the table they have a grill for fresh beef, salmon, chicken. Beef was not very good, it was medium rare but very chewy, fish was juicy which was nice and chicken was flavourful. At the end they also have desserts! Large variety of ice cream (8 scooped and 2 soft serve) pineapple flavor was unavailable and vanilla was icy. They also have lots of cake and fruits Service throughout the night was very good, staff were helpful and clean up the plates very quickly after your finish each round. Drinks are refilled as soon as they see it empty. Price was affordable at $26.99 (weekend) for adults and they split the kids age into different categories which is fair. My youngest is $3.99 and my oldest is $13.99. Drinks are extra at $1.50 for soft drinks but it includes free refills. They lost a star to the bathroom and cleanliness. Bathroom was gross, dirty and smell horrible, half the lighting were gone and hand soup seem water downed. Walls and floors should also be cleaned before they open for dinner as we did see lots of food under the table, even some rice on the seats read more

Desserts should be thrown out vs placed in the buffet lines. Buffet selections were limited, lots of fried food (6-10 types fried chicken). Sushi selections were average, not fresh. Restaurant decor looks like an abandoned restaurant. Plastic buffet decorations and office lamps gave "out dated" non appealing presentation. 1/2 of buffet lines were filled with empty clean pans vs food.

This is one of the better tasting Asian buffets I've been to. My friend wanted Sushi, I didn't do this was a good compromise. Edited and 2 stars taken off because while we enjoyed the food, I woke up with a food hangover that could only come from a meal heavy in MSG. read more

First attempt going to a Sushi Buffet. Restaurant also serve Chinese, Thai and Korean food. Went here during the week on Wednesday around 1 o'clock. Was afraid that there won't any good food left cause it was after lunch. But they seem to re-stock them pretty quickly. In my opinion. Or depend on what food you want to eat. Got greet right away when entering the restaurant. Was on a time crunch so was unable to take pictures. Down side for me was: Sushi has more rice than the meat. There wasn't any crab legs on the day that I went quite disappointed. No Unagi sushi and sashimi as well. Only shrimps and mussels. Buffet: $17.99 per person (Adult) 11am - 3pm Pay at the front when you're done. (at the bar area?) I'll go there again, when I have a chance. read more

Went there today, the food tasted like left overs, the service wasn't present, the place it self was dirty and after wards I got food posioning so if you're going there, don't eat and chicken or sushi there, stick to the desserts read more

A+ Buffet Sushi & Bar - Just great! - Buffets Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Highly recommend making a reservation for peak hours. The food did tend to sit and be lukewarm when i arrived but as the place picked up, food was refreshed promptly and were hot. The standard Chinese buffet food items were available but the sushi items were my go to. The sashimi choice was restricted to salmon and tuna but tasted good and were a generous size. The rice was denser than what i am used to, but makes sense for a buffet. The seafood was great quality! Great service with friendly staff and a modern interior. BONUS: self-serve soft serve ice cream machine was such a treat!!! read more

It was a new place and so I had to come try it out. Parking 5/5 lots of parking. Had its own parking lot. Environment 5/5 place is very spacious , clean but this is because it's new. Service 4/5 when we ordered the sushi & sashimi it came out pretty fast. The servers were very friendly made sure to come ask if we needed more water. They could of came around more often to clear the tables of the dirty plates. Food 3/5 food was ok more chimes good then anything. Not everything was labeled so wasn't sure what was the dish when walking around. Not a great dessert selection either . Ice cream tubs not labeled which was disappointing especially since I'm allergic to strawberries I didn't know which one was what. Soft serve chocolate ice cream came out weird color so couldn't eat that. Chocolate fountain didn't look like chocolate was very runny and looked like brown coloured water. Defiantly wouldn't come back especially when it's almost $40 a person. read more

I'm not sure why this location is called A+ Sushi it's more of a C-. Not much variety nor was there much freshness. Sushi was whatever. The other dishes weren't great and oysters not fresh. Even their lemons looked old. Our server was terrible. I had to keep flagging down someone else for help. Would not come back here read more

We had today the worst service what we have in Calgary. We were in that buffet when it just opened and can admit that we never come again . Already dirty , the dishes are dirty but the most important thing what impressed us that during our lunch about 40 min the server never come to our table to clean. They were walk around but never come until late we call their manager . When we showed her our table and table close to us where we set our dirty dishes just apologized for this inconvenience. A hahaha and offered do not pay tips .u was so impressed the best solution for this situation .it's business by chainis way probably. Actually I think this good place only for chainis people because they usually got served first. Nice . read more

at least the water was good sushi okay you guys should learn how to cook food ....

Oct-5-2018 First and last time at this location Disappointed My experience at this place was very disappointing , for a Friday at 6:45 pm all the trays were either empty or with some food in but very cold, nothing special at the sushi bar, you can buy that kind of sushi in any store, normally we go down town for Chinese food, but tonight we want try something different because our granddaughter likes sushi , in each tray there was one or two pcs left and ready for the garbage, my wife she did her dish and she never touched anything on the dish because the food was old and cold. Never again we'll go to eat at this A+Buffet sushi bar. My wife ,she just said , this kind of food it's not even served to pigs. read more

Went here with party of 6 for a birthday dinner outing. Made sure we made reservations for around 6 pm so that we were in time when food was fresh and hot. We enjoyed the pre-cracked hot crab claws. Don't forget to ask for cracker utensils ! Although the claws are pre-cut, there were parts hard to just pry open with your fork or knife . The sushi choices were freshly refilled whenever they ran out and the sashimi slabs of salmon was fresh and soooo tasty! If you love sushi or have a big family, you can fill up on so many choices! We don't go to many buffet outings, but our family enjoyed the selections of Chinese food and sushi for our dinner out... read more

We were here a couple of weeks ago. After having another disappointing meal out last night, I was reminded about my experience at this place. As you can see from previous reviews I don't have negative reviews often so please know I am not a negative person. Not going to say much. Over all experience was lacking. From service to food. While there is a huge selection of foods to choose from nothing was very good at all. But the most disappointing part of the experience was when we went to have some sushi. Though the sushi was sitting on ice it was all at room temperature which was a little disconcerting and we debated whether we should try it. We decided to risk it and were very disappointed. Bland, no flavor and warm. Nothing refreshing or good about it. We left this place completely unsatisfied not wanting to pay the $39 per person. This is one place I would not recommend. read more

I went to this buffet two separate times for dinner, one on a Tuesday night, one on a Friday night. The Friday dinner has about the same sashimi and sushi selections but has many more hot food item including roast beef. I also found that the food is fresher on Friday, probably due to the quicker turnover with more people. Love the varieties and food quality. Definitely recommend the BBQ beef short ribs and sashimi. read more

BAD SERVICE AND LOW QUALITY FOOD WITH MSG STAY AWAY I came here with my 2 young children and my friend and her 3 young children. We were in the lobby waiting for a server to seat us and were talking, and when the manager came up to the desk to get our attention started yelling "HELLO, HELLO?" I did not appreciate her initial reaction but decided to stay because we had kids with us and it was freezing outside. Other than her, the rest of the workers and servers were friendly. Now onto our meal, despite the name, there is only a small selection of sushi. Even the sushi they are serving did not look appetizing! The yam rolls had white mayonnaise squeezed on top, the sushi had a thin slice of salmon on a big bed of rice. Poorly presented and not appetizing or tasty. This is a big selection of Chinese food that is loaded with msg, so if your sensitive to msg than stay away! The vegetables were slimy, the meats with soggy and not crispy like you would except Chinese dishes like lemon chicken or ginger beef. The Korean beef short ribs were undercooked and had no sauce on them. The rice and noodles weren't fresh. Most of the noodles were broken up into smaller pieces like they had been sitting for hours. The food wasn't even hot! The desserts were not good at all, cookies were burnt, cakes lacking flavour. The only good thing was the ice cream. Then we go to pay our bill, and the manager tells us that we have to pay 15% gratuity on the bill. I explained to her that we're only 2 adults and the rest are children. Also nobody told us that we had to pay an extra 15% on top of a meal that we didn't even enjoy. This is not right to make a group of 6 or more pay for a large tip when the costumers are mostly children. What if everyone can't afford to pay such a large tip? She wasn't going to budge so it was pointless to argue my point. Don't be fooled by their rating. It is a total scam! They give you 5% off your bill if you show them you left them a 5 star review!! Overall avoid this place, not worth it at all! Yalda.aya1@gmail.co read more

Came here for dinner with a group of friends. The price was decent for dinner (26.99) but it wasn't worth it for the food we got in my opinion. The buffet had a mixture of a bunch of different asian cuisine including Korean, Japanese and Chinese. The food was not fresh and had the taste of something that's been sitting in the warmer for a long long time. The short ribs were overcooked, the Chinese food was very greasy (including vegetables). The seaweed on the sushi was chewy and the wasabi was rock solid. There wasn't much vegetables to choose from and the desserts were ridiculously sweet. The remaining food were either soggy or dry as they've been sitting for way too long. The soft serve machine wasn't working as well. Additionally, 50% of the signs for the food were incorrect and mislabelled. As it was a buffet it was pretty much 100% self serve. Service was non-existent and we finally saw an employee when we went up to pay. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and this place will go to my list of "tried it won't come again" The price of a dinner buffet is decent compared to other buffets but for the same price you can go to a decent restaurant for way better food. read more

Are you supper hungry and want sushi? But your friends like Chinese, go here. This place is good for the people that may be a little indecisive. That's about it. I found it a little over priced for what it offered and noting out of the ordinary will found here. The sushi is small selection for someone who can be adventuress or like lots of different kinds of seafood. Then the buffet was just filler food, seemed like it was all store bought frozen for the most part. I know that the cake in the in the dessert bar was right from the store because I bought it to bring for a work party before. The service was sufficient, did I get feed? Yes. was my table cleared? Yes. I don't think we had one server to our table we had more than one attending to our group. I don't know if the staffs realize if they are to act as servers or bus boys. We got water for the group at the start and then no one asked if we wanted another drink again. A- Buffet read more

A+ Buffet Sushi & Bar - The rose sushi was pretty - Buffets Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I think it's important to point out that when I rate a restaurant, I rate it off of "What I went there expecting and desiring." I went to A+ sushi as very hungry STUDENT on a STUDENT BUDGET. With that being said I think it was great! was it the best sushi I've had? no. But it came quick, was yummy, and there were many options available. The buffet is one that is so extensive that I was frankly shocked it was included in the price of the bill with the sushi. The selection was vast and when I went to get some rice, the server insisted on the chef making me a new batch because that one had been sitting for more than 20 minutes. She then actually brought it to my table when it was ready after I had forgotten about it. read more

I came here for two lunches in a row, so I think it's fair to say that I've seen enough to be able to write a coherent review. This was in Sept, when they were offering a 30% off promotion for lunch (bringing the adult price to $15 or $16). A+ is a combination of a Chinese buffet with AYCE sushi ordering. The décor and ambiance is awesome - everything feels so modern, with clean cut lines and open spaces. The staff all have digital name tags, which was also cool. I found my service experience to be mixed - both visits had a very delayed seating / name taking at the entrance. My first visit was with a (white) friend, and I found the table side service to be a bit sparse. My second visit was with my (Chinese) family, and we had a server that was friendly, attentive, and great at clearing plates. Take that how you will, considering the second visit was much busier restaurant wide... Unlike some of the other reviews, I had no issues getting my sushi order right or on time - they were prompt about it and the sushi was..... well, I think the sushi was what one would expect from a Chinese buffet restaurant - which is to say, not terrible. I've had a lot worse, that's for sure. The buffet options are actually pretty large, and includes a little bit of dim sum as well (pork buns, steamed shrimp dumplings, siu mai, etc.) The shrimp dumplings were hit and miss - some of them were decent and some of them were so mushy they weren't edible. The buffet selection was actually pretty decent, and there was also a seafood bar area which apparently only has shrimp and mussels for lunch (no crab legs, unfortunately). These were.... mediocre, but again as expected for this kind of buffet. As far as buffets go, I've had better, but I've also had worse. I would say that there is no reason to visit this place as opposed to somewhere else unless there was a 30% discount - as far as the cost to food ratio, for $15 it was a solid choice. Given the dinner prices, I would never ever pay $40 for this place per person. If the 30% off discount ever comes back, I may just pay another visit, but until then.... read more

The food was so terrible... I am a regular guest at this restaurant. Today.... The food was so terrible , and it was the worst restaurant I've ever been to. The employee was very unkind and I was so disappointed. I hope no one visits this place. You will surely regret it. I officially ask the owner to refund my money. read more

One of the better sushi places in the city. We took my dad and he is a picky eater, I was highly impressed that even he found a wide selection that he'd eat. The only downside is they don't bring out very many types of sushi rolls at a time. read more

If you are going for all you can eat sushi, I would not recommend A+. We came here for the first time after hearing good reviews, and were quickly disappointed. It was a bit of a wait for a table - not because the place was packed, but because there were numerous tables sitting empty that had not been cleaned. I used the washroom while we waited and it was dirty and out of toilet paper. Once we were seated, we ordered some sushi at about 7:45 and went to the buffet to get some hot food. There is a decent selection but nothing I would write home about. Little things missing like no tempura or gyoza dipping sauces. The food didn't have a lot of flavour. I also asked for tea which never arrived, and they were out of low sodium soy sauce (having Chinese soy as a replacement doesn't count) and green tea. We had to ask for soy dipping dishes. The sushi is made to order and we waited over an hour and a half for it to arrive. We eventually had to reorder our food. What we did get wasn't what was promised - 6 pieces in most rolls and we only got 3. We did complain to our server about not receiving our orders - both of them! - and were told that WE had to ask the manager ourselves for a discount! What?!? We were given a discount eventually which somewhat made up for the bad experience - they were very apologetic. Overall, a cool concept but they seem very disorganized and flustered with the size of the restaurant and limited staff. We will not be back - read my review for Oishii Sushi in Riverbend. Much better food and service for all you can eat! We give A+ a D- read more
