We have been ordering from Door Dash and I really like the Crunchy Philly roll and spicy sunshine roll. My daughter ordered miso soup and they didn't give her any tofu in it. She was pretty upset. I can't comment on the service and ambiance because it's Door Dash. read more

The food is really good but every time I eat here I get crazy diarrhea the next day, and I NEVER have issues with my stomach. Really bad with giving refills on drinks. read more

Sushi was good although limited options came around the belt. Service was non existent we had to go find the waitress everytime we needed something. Didn't bring drinks until we were pretty much done eating. We ordered yakisoba noodles and they came out at the very end when we were ready to leave. Totally plain no flavor just mushy noodles. She kept bringing orders to wrong tables. We love Kaiyo but not sure we will be back after this visit. More experienced staff needed for sure. read more

I ordered takeout from them for the first time. The sushi was pretty good for the price, very tasteful. The spicy mayo was actually spicy which i appreciate. And the fish didn't have a real fishy taste. I enjoyed it a lot and will order from here again. The lion roll was my favorite. read more

First I Walked into the reastraunt and the first thing I noticed was the dirty smell. If you know what I am talking about, there's gross fish smell and good fish smell. This was a very bad fish smell. As I go to get seated nobody is here dining in and all the tables are filled with left overs except one table. It just looked gross and made the whole joint smell. That's not all either, I go to sit down and roughly 20 fruit flies fly around me from under and on the table. Nice people but Very gross restaurant. read more

They work super hard and fast to make sushi delicious sushi! I'm in sushi heaven....... read more

I love this place! Very pleasant surprise as I was driving from Eugene to Portland. Loved the food and the waitress was amazing We sat in one of the booths and could still grab the rolls as they came by. Look forward to stopping by next time I'm near Albany. Good variety of sushi and a lot of desert items also. read more

The food was delicious, I recommend the Snow Mountain Roll . The service is not so delicious or recommended. We waited for 30 minutes and had to ask to get service. It is just us in the building on a Thursday....we are the only customers....so the service shouldn't have been so slow but hey it's not always perfect, no big deal. They have attitudes Enjoy!! read more

Counterfeit Fish Alert!!! So we went here 6 months ago and it was fantastic. They have super generous slices of fish (still). However we have been here twice recently and wow it has gotten horrible. Serving dyed white fish and passing off as tuna. Pick up any slice of tuna and see the red dye on the rice. Served us some counterfeit yellow tail (definitely some other fish). So disappointing!!! Also the service is now a bunch of teenagers who spend their time on their phones before customer service. To the owner go back to being honest and hire some people who take the job seriously. read more

2 Japanese sushi chefs where disgruntled employees, the rolls and hand rolls on the conveyer where all the same rolls dressed up differently. All the nigiri we ordered had a horrible fishy order, octopus nigiri they gave us was absolutely disgusting only good thing about the place where the 2 young ladies serving us whom we tipped well the dood was disgusting people stay away we didn't eat any of the sushi read more

Our meals were great, we will go back and recommend. Service was adequate and could gain value from some training. The ambience what you would expect in this kind of establishment and everything was clean! read more

It's cool that there's a track sushi place here. I did take-out, however. The sushi is okay, nothing very notable. It reminded me of grocery store sushi. They did not include any wasabi or ginger in the take-out container; the website says something about checking it and it will come with the whole order, but a box to check (without ordering extra wasabi or ginger) didn't appear. read more

Surprising find in Albany! This sushi place was actually really good, has good prices for nigiri, and comes with a reasonable serving. Full disclosure: I can only speak on the takeout experience & sake (salmon) nigiri since that's all I got, but it was great! Each nigiri came as a decent-sized cut of salmon with not-too-much rice. Wish it came with more ginger, but overall surpassed my expectations for sushi in the area. Good quality fish, good size cut. Note that they are not open for dine-in during the day - only take out orders, with dine-in 4-8pm. Was a bit disappointed coming in expecting conveyor belt sushi for lunch, but the takeout experience was just fine. read more

Good Sushi! Conveyer belt Sushi too which is always great. Staff was chill too and there were some fun deserts as well

Staff seems nice. Establishment is older but is clean. Love the conveyor belt sushi idea out here in the middle of nowhere cool. The sushi here is legit!! Looks proportioned nicely, rolled tightly, and surprisingly fresh and delicious. All the sushi/food we ordered (Salmon nigiri, salmon lover's roll, super rainbow roll, Cali roll, Oregon roll, and sesame balls) was yummy. I'd consider eating here again but..... Someone here is incompetent...the hostess. She should pay more attention to the takeout orders! The online order system said my order would be ready by 550PM. I arrive at 605PM to find out the girl in the front wasn't paying attention and the Doordash person picked up my decent size order and delivered it to someone else. They put my order together...as quickly as you can roll sushi I guess and I received that 15min later. I'm salty about my experience because I was already charged the meal...including the 15% tip I added on my online order that I couldn't take back/reduce when I arrived at the restaurant. Knowing of my online tip, they should have threw in a little extra something for my troubles, especially since the order mix up with Grubhub left an 'unpicked up' (not really a word) order somewhere on the counter. Just a suggestion. Too easy ...oh yah...she forgot to add napkins and the other lady had to ask if I wanted chopsticks. read more

It was yummy but there wasn't many options on the conveyer belt sadly. I was most excited about the belt. read more

Well... it sucks. Ordered the spider roll, which you could taste the rot in the cooked soft shell crab. It tasted like liver. Ordered the Creamy scallops handroll, and it looked like mayo with minced scallops. I had to scoop out some of it and put it on a another sushi roll because it was too much "cream". Ordered the house roll, and all "cooked tuna" on the menu is canned Tuna. The server repeatedly stated this as if she had never seen a cooked tuna outside of a can. We politely asked for a return on the rolls because it was not what we had expected after trying only 1 of the 8 rolls we received. After asking the server if it was canned tuna, she got an attitude and showed the worst service I have experienced. For most of the dining experience, she was not waiting tables or servicing guests - she spent most of it on her phone and standing around.. This review is coming from a person who has worked in hospitality for 10 years as a line cook/sous chef and grew up as an asian-american surrounded by many asian foods. I still think about why I even tipped in the first place. Mostly because I'm not going to let the terrible service turn me into an asshole. 2 stars because the yakisoba was aight. read more

I LOVE this place and will visit them time and time again. My experience began when I called and asked about wait times. I was told there shouldn't be a wait, but if there is, it would be less than 10 minutes. I arrived with my four children and we were seated immediately. Drink orders were taken. They had Japanese sodas available and my children loved them. Then came the conveyor belt of freshly prepared sushi. The plates are color coded for price so I was able to tell my children that they could pick as many green plates as they wanted (green is the cheapest). In addition to the conveyor belt of fresh sushi where you pick what you want without having to wait, you can order specialty items (we had the 911). In addition, if something you want isn't going around on the conveyor belt, just ask. The staff were happy to prepare whatever we were looking for! The employees elevated our experience. They checked in with us often and made recommendations. We left extremely full for much less than I've paid for us all to eat at "all you can eat" sushi places. The creamy scallop shushi dish (I'm not good with names so please forgive me) was recommended and I was impressed. Fish eggs adorned to top of the dish. The mixture of flavors was amazing. Even better, my kids loved it all. My son didn't care for the squid salad. It had a gingery taste and I'm afraid he doesn't like ginger. Now that I've told you about my secret spot, please go. I don't want to regret giving out information about this hidden gem. read more

Super stoked that I found Kaiyo! I ordered to-go today--3 orders of salmon nigiri and 1 order of escolar nigiri. I'm very pleased with the quality of the fish for the price that I paid. My total for this order was $15.00. I asked for an extra side of ginger, and that brought my total up to $15.75. Staff was very friendly and the ambience of the interior was inviting. I will definitely be back for an indoor dining experience next time! read more

We door dashed sushi while visiting from out of town. My only complaint was that the poke salad should have been bagged separately from warm food so it would stay cold. read more

Three stars is generous, and definitely doesn't represent the sushi itself at this restaurant. I'll start with the positive. The blonde hostess/waitress was sweet and attentive. Also the vegetable tempura was delicious. Now, on to the not so positive/borderline gross. Never having had been to Oregon, I didn't really know what to expect as far as the sushi scene. Well, let me tell you to not expect much. We were starving so we ordered a bunch of rolls. The 911 roll had decent escolar (aka "white tuna") on top, but the spicy tuna inside had a weird twang to It. I don't mean that in a good way. Also, the tuna in the tuna lovers roll was gray. This was obviously really off-putting. The only decent sushi roll was the AAC, which had avocado and tempura fried asparagus. In reality, we only liked It because It didn't have any rank fish in It. But, ultimately our appetites were so tarnished from the rest of the rolls, we didn't even end up finishing It either. Additionally, my Thai iced tea tasted like dish water, basically like It was made with old pipe tap water. All in all, I cannot in good conscious recommend this place for anything other than veggie rolls and veggie tempura... read more

I enjoy track sushi and the choices. I feel the prices have really gone up though. I had 4 plates for lunch and my bill was $15. Dollars plus tip. A little steep for track sushi in my opinion. But still good. read more

if you like flavorless food and terrible service. The table had no napkins or ginger or chopstick. Had to ask for service twice just to get the basics at our table. The guys behind the counter are useless, as you ask them for help and they will just yell at their employees to come to our table. read more

Great service from Rebecca! Foods always delicious! I will always come back especially that they will be putting a Boba place in it soon!

delicious! The spider roll is incredible. Thank you for making our drive from southern Oregon to Portland so much better! read more

We loved the belt with food and the food was good although they don't serve wasabi with the sushi and when we asked for a second serving of wasabi from someone behind the counter they scoffed "another one?" .....okay, rude! The waitress was also unfriendly. Maybe we came on an off night but the vibe wasn't right...bad enough we won't be coming back. read more

Good was great. Server was amazing. Very efficient. Wonderful experience. Took time to explain the dishes and how they were prepared

I'm trying not to compare this to Sugoi Sushi in Corvallis, but it's hard not to. Both are conveyor belt sushi joints, but I'll try to stay as unbiased as possible. We went on a Monday afternoon, and several other parties were seated at booths around the conveyors belts. We were seated promptly, and wait staff was courteous and attentive when they could be. The restaurant was quite clean, and the circulation of food was kept relatively constant. We didn't feel the need to order any rolls, and were able to pick up edamame and other sides with our meal. Sushi was as expected, mostly heavy with imitation crab salad. The shrimp roll we ordered didn't taste like anything, so I opted out of eating the full serving. Thai iced tea was ice heavy, and way creamier than normal. Wouldn't order again. Ramen was seasoned and with clump-less noodles. Sparse on veggies. A conveyor belt experience that did not have us rethinking eating circulating fish! read more

Food was good. Wish the wasabi was a bit wetter and the ginger not so salty. Good service and fun to pick your choices from the conveyor belt. read more

Sushi is yummy and what's not more fun that snatching it off a moving belt before you gobble it down!!! Pretty good selection of items. And they are will to make you stuff not on the belt. Staff was nice.. and food was good. I would come back often the fish taste fresh and no fishy smell. read more

Food is Mid. Everything has less flavor than it should. Restaurant is new, needs more time to improve

Best sushi I've ever had so FRESH I was taken by shock somewhere so close had this! Definitely recommend.

Garage!!!!! Right when we walked in everyone was so rude. We sat down to see that there was barley any sushi on the belt so we decided to order off the menu. When I finally got one of my orders the worker literally tossed it at me and said "here you go". A little later I got up to get some spicy mayo and the sushi lady barked at me " what are you doing". Mind you it was for the restaurant public to use. When we got our last plate of sushi it looked like nothing we ordered but the worker said it was, when we got up to leave they asked "do you still want your last sushi order" mind you the worker totally lied to us saying the previous roll was what we ordered! Will not be coming back, sushi was old, atmosphere was horrid. Worst place by far. read more

Not good quality in the least. I even spit two pieces out and knew I was finished. I did some computer work (rude of me I admit,) but had not seen one thing on the Conveyor belt removed within the hour I was there. Ewww Also way over priced for a load of rice and skimpy slices of fish. Ridiculous read more

BAD FIRST IMPRESSION! We were excited to see a new sushi restaurant open in Albany. It turned out to be a very late lunch for us on this labor day, but we were excited to see the Grand Opening sign and the handwritten sign on the door saying "Happy Hour M-F 2:00-4:30 25% off." Unfortunately, they didn't honor their sign when we paid the check! The sushi that passed by on the belt was mostly rolls and not a lot of variety. The taste was fine, what you would expect for economy sushi, but nothing outstanding. We ate and were filled. When we paid the check, I asked why we didn't receive Happy Hour pricing. The cashier said that it was because it was a holiday. I said that I didn't consider that very fair the way the sign on the door was written. The cashier agreed with me and said that he had already asked the manager about it, but the manager didn't want to do anything about it. If this is true, then this restaurant will have trouble gaining loyal customers. There needs to be better communication and integrity with the staff for customers to not feel treated unfairly. I agree with a previous review - skip this place and go to Ginza. read more
