Great place to eat with lots of selection - dinner service and weekend have more choices but for lunch at $22 it is not bad - Elsa was my server and she was amazing and really nice work attitude and a friendly smile. Always like coming back here. read more

Good overall AYCE sushi. They do not seem strict about waste, but if you ask them to not include items you won't eat (for me it was less rice) they can accommodate. The sashimi was mixed in quality, some pieces seemed drier than others in a serving. There are a lot of options on the menu though. Teriyaki dishes,calimari,takoyaki, hibachi, etc... For what I expected of AYCE sushi the quality is on the mark. Not unexpectedly great, but also not a bad value. The interior seems pretty sharp. Darker interior with some neon. I would recommend this location, I like AYCE, for selection and flexibility. This matches what I would want. read more

A few people told us to try this sushi place in Clive and it was nice! We got there early and the restaurant filled up pretty quickly on a Friday afternoon. They offer their regular menu or an all you can eat option. We did their regular menu and it was nice overall. Restaurant is causal but leaves space for classier dining. On to the food: we started with the shumai and vegetable tempura. Shumai was cooked perfectly but the tempura lacked seasoning. It was still crunchy. Sushi was very fresh but served on trays with fake plastic flowers. The fake flowers are unnecessary when the sushi presents so beautifully by itself. We also tried their hibachi noodles with special sauce and it was good. Big portion of just noodles though - it does not have veggies. Tried two cocktails: lychee martini and a cosmo. Both really good but that lychee martini was something special. Deep flavors without being too sweet and overly boozy. Now the service. Keep in mind that it was not busy when we arrived. Our server did not check in as often as he probably should have. First drink sat empty on our table for a while before he finally came back around to see if we wanted anything else. He had difficulty speaking and understanding English which may have been a factor. Not the kindest person but he wasn't rude (if that makes sense). All of the other staff were polite and very helpful. Overall okay but considering all of the other great sushi restaurants in Des Moines, we will probably pass on coming here again. read more

Always a great experience! Love the staff, great selection of rolls, fast service. Also, highly recommend the lychee martini

With the use of a search engine, we found the restaurant. The parking is ample and you're greeted by the host. They offer you buffet or dining from the menu. Our server Mario, was excellent. He made recommendations, checked on our table, and brought the adjusted check. The ambiance has energy, neon lights, and open space. The classic hand rolls were okay, the seaweed salad is tasty, but the cocktail fell flat for me. I would come back. read more

Arrived around 4:30 on a Friday. Wasn't too busy yet. Server Elsa was very friendly and attentive. Tried the Godzilla, Caterpillar and Crispy Crab rolls. All were good but we really enjoyed the shrimp chicken and steak hibachi with the noodles. All food seemed very fresh and tasty finished off with dessert of fried Oreos and vanilla ice cream. Dinner price is $30 per person which seems a little high but food quality was good. Better option might be to try it at lunch when it has a few or options, but probably still as good. read more

Izumi is a great addition to the metro - the all you can eat for $30 is a great price point for sushi and also offering hibachi makes it easy to please - this is my second time there both for birthday parties! I called to make this reservation and it was super easy! Having a party of 8 was a bit hectic for ordering as they have you order off of one paper which makes it easy for them but for passing a huge sushi boat around the table for everyone to get their rolls it's a bit rough! Food was delicious. They told us which rolls were which. We did have a minor shrimp allergy at the table and when told prior to ordering they appeared to understand but there was some shrimp rolls on the same boat as the rolls without shrimp. The ambiance was great and they even let us light our own cake for the birthday. Overall super happy! read more

Izumi has become our go to since Oh Sushi changed ownership and did away with their all you can eat option. You can order off the menu and don't have to do the all you can eat... Pricing for the ayce option may seem a little high to people who aren't used to an all you can eat option at a sushi restaurant. $30.95 for dinner and $20.95 lunch for adults... Kids are at reduced rates. If you are paying for a couple individual signature rolls, add up the cost, you'll see it's really pretty reasonable... We like that everything is included in the all you can eat option here. Appetizers, tempura, sushi rolls, nigiri, sashimi, hibachi, teriyaki, soups (udon and soba noodle), salads, and even desserts! Seating is mostly booths and low top tables. The decor has certainly changed 180 degrees if you knew this location by Cheddars or Wobbly Boots BBQ. Probably our favorite rolls are... Waikiki Crispy crab Ichiban Bison Fire and ice Hawaiian Godzilla And on the appetizer menu... If you like jalapeno poppers make sure you don't sleep on theirs. Tempura battered and huge! I want to say we've eaten at Izumi four times now and every times has gone well. Greeted right away when we walk in, staff is friendly, the menu and ordering process is easy to understand... If you haven't checked out Izumi yet... What are you waiting for? https://izumirestaurant-clive.2-menucities.com/ read more

I came here with a friend and her 5 year old daughter. The staff was very friendly and accommodating by making sure all of us had everything we needed to enjoy our meal, and even made sure our 5 year old was okay by chatting with her and putting her water in a kiddie cup. This restaurant offers an all you can eat buffet but also has a regular menu. We opted to order from their regular menu. I ordered the salmon lunch and it was very tender and delicious. Normally I have food left over from a meal but during this visit I ate everything on my plate because it was so good. I would definitely come back here for another meal! read more

The all you can eat deal is great. You're able to try a lot of menu items and they are reasonable sizes. The garden salad is a great starter item. The paradise roll is yummy and not too spicy. The dumplings are crispy and easy to share. All of the habachi/teriyaki items are good. I especially liked the fried rice. All of the food came out hot and quickly. Our server was helpful and friendly. The vibe of the restaurant is kind of funky and modern. There's a lot of tables/people so it can get a little loud but not intolerable. read more

We've been here a few times now! Great food and service! Can accommodate larger groups.

As a general rule, I stay away from ANY sushi place that offers "all you can eat." Izumi is the exception to that rule. $30 for the cleanest, freshest fish anywhere in Des Moines. Incredible value, taste, and service. The restaurant vibe is also unique, featuring a clubby modern "astronauts in space desert" theme. I highly recommend the Hawaiian Roll, rainbow roll, and any sashimi or nigiri. read more

This was a fun AYCE dining experience for our party of seven. A variety of rolls and appetizers to choose from. Dinner was $36. It was a busy Saturday night but service was great as far as refills and check-ins. This is the first sushi restaurant I've been to where forks are provided without requesting them. I guess they know their audience. My only complaints were no pork belly and no pictures. read more

Ordered togo and not sure if this was the reason why it was bad but steak was so dry and over done. The food had no seasoning overall and just had so much juice in the bottom of the bag that spilled everywhere. Wish I could go back in time and save my $70. The sushi which I did eat was decent but nothing special. read more

It's nothing like a quiet dinner to settle your day by popping in and ordering delicious Hibachi Chicken & Salmon to cap off a busy week. The food presentation was a kaleidoscope of flavorful colors. The carrots, onions, mushrooms, salmon and chicken were all finely cut making each bite more digestible. The bowl shape fried rice was seasonably yummy with flakes of peas. However, the quiet space was interrupted by highly active little ones at the front desk that cascaded over into the dining area-- with mom trying to referee the loud over the top gleeful play-- well so much for my deliciously somber moment --and how was your day? read more

Very good restaurant and service. Worth the visit, you won't be disappointed Lots of choices read more

This was fine. It's like eating at a buffet with each plate being delivered by the waiter. Everything was good but nothing that I would come back for again. Sushi was good quality. Crab Rangoon did have imitation crab and was good. Everything fried came out hot but all the other food came out at the same time and was cold by the time we got to it. I did not like the udon noodle at all and there was too much breading on the fried shrimp. read more

At $30.99 per person, and the quantity of food available, this was a great experience for me and my girls. Well worth the trip and value. If we priced everything individually, it would have been $175 plus. read more

Decour it very nice. How ever that where the good stops . Rice on our hibachi salmon was under cooked. Our sushi rolls fell apart easily, and only 1 soy sauce option. The desert was a childs plastic cup ice cream you got in grade school. It is all hype for mediocre food at best. read more

The all you can eat sushi experience was so much fun and a great experience. Our server was helpful and kind. The sushi was delicious. The only downside for some is that many of the "spicy" options weren't spicy at all. The ambiance is interesting with a space theme and mirrors, but it felt fun and both classy and inviting regardless. read more

Great place to bring the family to come eat, great sushi, options and service can be fast and easy

Having sushi all over the world, I was pleasantly surprised of the quality, price, and service of this place for an all you can eat sushi spot. Service was quick, food was brought out pretty fast. Everything we ordered tasted really fresh and to order. The quality of the fish was surprisingly fresh for ayce. Also, the restaurant is big, newly remodeled, and really clean. Definitely will go back! read more

Amazing food! Service was awesome! The hibachi and sushi were my favorite. Cocktail drinks were great and reasonable.

Love love love !Wow!!! Perfect selection of appetizers, sushi, hibachi, teriyaki, and noodles. For me, a sushi lover, I loved it. Variety of sushi, fish tastes fresh, generous portions and beautiful presentation. For my husband, who is basic, loved the shumai, crab rangoons, sushi tempura roll, and hibachi steak. For my boys, chicken and steak teriyaki and dumplings were a total hit. Ohh and sobu noodles. I would recommend this place for any type of occasion or group size. I've been here five times already, and every time service has been impeccable, and food is good! Last thing, the design!!! Super cool photo opportunities throughout! read more

Visiting from California and came here with my in-laws while staying in Clive. First off--Izumi Sushi absolutely delivers. Service was shockingly fast (especially for an all-you-can-eat spot), and dinner was priced really well at around $30 per person. That's a steal considering the quality of the sushi and how much you can order. The beer and cocktail selection was way better than expected. Solid options, great flavors. Plus, let's be honest... the offer of a free cocktail for leaving a review didn't hurt either. The place was packed--full parking lot, full tables--which says a lot. But even with the rush, the staff was super welcoming and really helpful in explaining how everything works (since it was our first time). 2 Big bonuses: 1, they were very accommodating of our 5-month-old, which made the whole experience even better. 2, they are very clean and modern looking, the feeling inside is upscale and relaxed. Highly recommend if you're in the area and want a relaxed, delicious sushi night with good drinks and great service. read more

Izumi - Caterpillar, Philly, Ichiban, and time-bomb rolls! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Clive, Iowa

Sat very quickly. The smells are great! So delicious. Service was very good. Loved the tempura and our sushi's rolls were excellent. We had a party of 3. We split each plate so we got to try several things. Going in a group is a great idea as you can get small bites of more items. Rolls are about 8 pieces, appetizers are two servings but we easily split them for 3. I did not get to taste the curry but for sure will next time. Dirty martinis were delicious but standard olives and for $9 a decent accompaniment to the meal. Finishing touch was the green tea ice cream. Refreshing and good for settling a full stomach. Plan a night out with friends, experiment a little, and enjoy a fun evening. read more
