    I loved the NRH location and this one is just as great. It did take me a few minutes to be seated as a single diner with not much of a crowd but that was forgotten when I had my first orders at my table as fast as I got my water. The chefs were working over time behind the bar keeping up with my relentless sashimi orders so I eventually ended with two bowls of ice cream to round out my two hours of over indulgence in vitamin b6 and b12. Even at dinner prices, I feel that I get an excellent value from these AYCE locations. My server Alanis was great and commiserated with me about delayed flights and made sure I felt comfortable spending as much time as I wanted there. I was happy to see that there were several other guys eating solo here even with the usual family groups, which I had not seen at the other location. Overall, it was a bright and lovely vibe with a slightly eclectic playlist going that matched the good natured chatting behind me at the host stand. Everyone seemed to be very happy to be there and it made me feel quite at home.

    So I came here for the first time because I was craving some Japanese food, sushi, and all that good stuff. I looked through the reviews and found Japan House. I'm glad I went; they are an all-you-can-eat restaurant. When you arrive, you're greeted by the host, then seated, and they explain the menu and prices, which are actually quite reasonable. They are open from 11:00 to 14:30 for lunch, then reopen at 16:30 to close. The place looks amazing, decorated in authentic Japanese style. Huy, my server, was just fantastic. He explained how everything works and had this great energy about him. He even helped with some recommendations: the Ocean, 911 roll, and the Hot Night roll--all of which are amazing, so I recommend trying those. Also, if you go, ask for Huy. I'll definitely be back to try more because, you know, you can only eat so much, LOL!!!

    Stopped in for lunch. The restaurant was extremely too dim to eat. Had to ask for a different table because there was no way to even see our food. Our server, Logan, did a a great job of keeping our table stocked up and to make sure we had what we needed. The fish was very thinly sliced...almost too thin. Definitely have better luck with the fish at their other two restaurants. The restaurant is nice overall. Cleaned up and looks like new still.

    We had a wonderful experience dining at Japan House recently. Our waiter, Bao, was very attentive and was patient with our questions. You are allowed to order 5 items at a time. Their servings are small, so there is less waste. The food arrives quickly and Bao returned after about 10-15 minutes later to see what else we would like to order. Their food is super fresh and tasty. The standouts for me was the salmon belly, lightly grilled. I ended up ordering this three times, with two pieces per serving, stop judging! ;) The rice less roll was yummy, crispy rice yummy, yellowtail with jalapeño. I tried multiple items. The only items I didn't care for was the lobster onigiri and shrimp skewer. My hubby was all about the sashimi and he easily ate $100 worth it. He was a happy man! We ordered some mochi ice cream for dessert, which is brought to the table by their cute robot. The ice cream reminded me so much of Japan! We will definitely return- great food and excellent service.

    All you can eat sushi, hibachi and tempura was good. The good thing about their sushi roll orders is that the rolls are not big allowing you to finish a roll and thus taste a variety of type of rolls. The wait staff is attentive. The hibachi cooking, tempura and soups were good. The atmosphere is mild noise

    I hate writing not so good reviews. I hate being hyped up by stellar reviews and try out a place to be so disappointed throughout a meal and then have to write sitting on the toilet in their restroom not even done with our meal. Why is this place rated so high? It had us fooled and I am slightly upset lol I would give it a 1 star which I never did before but I bumped up to a 2 because of the nicest hostess and waitress lol she is so kind so sweet which made me feel bad because the quality of the food is not her fault. I don't think she even knows or maybe she does. I don't think so. Upon entering I smelled an odor already. I discounted that. We sat down and was excited to order lunch items. We ordered quite a few but it took a LONG time to come. Like 15mins :/ as we watch the clock tick away because they close 2:30 and it's already 1 and we haven't gotten our food. So many things are wrong idk where to begin. Too much rice for one. Ahi tower is all rice. Nigiri is all rice. Tuna wasn't fresh. Mackerel is cardboard. Salmon was ok. Surf clam and octopus was edible. All other fish is chewy n fishy. The fried stuff is ok. We ordered calamari twice. The rolls were horrid I am sorry. I've never had rolls this bad. It fell apart, nothing rolled inside and was all wrong. Idk if you can tell from the pics but it's wrong. A child must have rolled it. I went to the restroom to look at who rolled it too. I feel so bad but I am in shock what a bad experience this place was. I wanted to like it so bad because we were hungry, the reviews were good and even a friend said it was ok and her parents came a lot so I did not expect this. The ice cream was good and I ate more calamari but even the udon and ramen tasted like it came from a package. Not authentic at all. The taoyaki was raw. The karate was from a box. The katsu was ok. Edamame was ok. The cat robot was cute and the place was pretty but again what happened to the food? It's probably the worse sushi I've had. Even worse than this place I had in Austin which I wouldn't go back. It wasn't fresh and the quality was so bad :( I hope they read this review and make some changes because $21 for lunch should be better than this. Sushi Masa in Plano is better than this. There are so many other ayce sushi places in town. They must be fresher than this? Lesson learned... Yes we are disappointed but again willing to pay our share bc our hostess waitress Julie was so nice. Have to commend her for being so sweet amidst the horrible food

    Finally made it to dinner service! Had all the sashimi I could eat ! We all so got to try the Japanese short ribs. They were fatty and delicious, hard to eat with chopsticks though so use your hands. Our server checked on us regularly and gave recommendations for the specialty menu, hurry and try the salmon belly before it's gone !!

    I did the AYCE menu for lunch. It was yummy. Great variety. I tried the Ahi Tower, Fried Shumai, Dallas Roll, California Roll, Volcano Roll. Enjoyed the cooked rolls a lot.

    I guess I'm a sushi snob. It's all you can eat but the more I ate the more I could taste that the quality wasn't to my standards. I honestly had to keep spitting it out near the end. I don't like the ramen. It's been awhile since we visited since writing this review (3/17/25) so I don't remember too much. The place isn't that stand out but we tried something new. Service was fine. You order and they bring it to your table. The decor looks nice. I think there are other places that have a bit better quality with the similar concept.

    PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE THANKS TO JASON!!! I've dined in several times here now, and the service is always amazing! They get orders out quick, and the staff is so kind. However, my most recent dinner with our server Jason blew me away! We usually go on weekends for dinner, and wait is usually up to 10 minutes. For this most recent visit, we got Jason as our server! Hands down one of the best servers I've ever had EVER! He made our dinner experience so delightful. Jason made great recommendations based on our preferences, and he also made suggestions from what we ordered before! He made sure we always had everything we need and that everything was good! Zack the manager is also very accommodating and made sure to ask how everything was in our table! Food here is always fresh and delicious! I love the nigiri and hand rolls here. Great selection for AYCE! Definitely a fave spot of ours! Parking is ample as well! Good ambiance, everyone is friendly and never too noisy!

    First time and the food was delicious! I don't eat much in one sitting so it was nice that the portions for the dinner "all you can eat" were small so I got to try a lot of different rolls. The crispy rice was really interesting but good! Favorite was the Dallas and Chy Chy roll. Also very good service and everything came out quick! Will definitely be back.

    I've been coming here with my best friend for lunch for months now. This quite literally is just THE spot. The price point is absolutely insane and so worth it. I love that there is a transformer at the door. I love that there's privacy between each booth. The service is so great and there's never a lag in food. It's yummy for being all you can eat. I just love this place and I hope it stays within ten minutes of me forever.

    Absolutely amazing and delicious sushi and sashimi. I love the AYCE, at a rather reasonable price as well. The rolls are not too big, giving you space to try other menu items. The sushi and sashimi were all fresh and brought out quickly. The appetizers did not disappoint and everything was full of flavor, down to the dessert! I am definitely coming back again.

I think the best way to describe their food is that it's simple and no-frills--if you're looking for fancy high quality Japanese restaurant food, then this place isn't it, but if you just want simple, home-style Japanese food then I would recommend this place! The portions are incredibly generous and the prices are shockingly very affordable--I was able to order an entree and sushi roll for under $25! I had the udon combo which included a plain bowl of udon noodles, 2 pieces of shrimp tempura, and 4 pieces of California roll all for just $9.99. Most of their sushi rolls are under $10. I also ordered one of their sushi combo sets to go and the sashimi to rice ratio was very generous. The menu has a wide variety of items to choose from, ranging from various appetizers, sushi, sashimi, noodles, rice bowls, bento boxes, and fried rice dishes so if you're in the mood for Japanese food but aren't sure what to have, there's plenty offered and you're bound to find something that suits your craving! Of note, I did not see any "specialty" drinks on the menu and it seems that the only drinks available for purchase are the ones in the refrigerator next to the counter (ie. packaged/bottled drinks only). There is a free self serve water station which includes a portable ice cube maker and the water tasted fine. 5/5 AMBIENCE My friend and I showed up around 7 pm on a Saturday and were the only ones dining in for the ~1.5 hours that we were in the restaurant. Again, the restaurant is very much a hole-in-the-wall small place but was clean (including the bathroom) and had a cozy ambience. Even though we were the only diners, there was a steady stream of people coming in and out to pick up carryout orders. 5/5 SERVICE This place is self seating and you go up to the counter when you are ready to order (menus are available at the counter which you can take and bring back to your seat to view). Payment is up front at the time of placing your order. Staff were all very friendly and service time was appropriate. 5/5 PARKING Since the restaurant is located within the strip mall, there's plenty of free parking nearby, although parking immediately in front of the restaurant can be limited since they are located near the tail end of the strip mall.
