There's not many AYCE sushi spot here in the Charleston/Summerville area when I want to stuff my face with sushi until I pass out from a food coma, however, King Sushi has been a reliable source. They have two location and I've visited both to say they're about the same obviously When I come to Kings Sushi it's because I crave sushi, really hungry, or both of course. Never have I been disappointed. I wish there were more options for AYCE sushi but until then this is a reliable source. You order on the paper and a server will assist either your drinks and other necessities. Restaurant is fairly spacious which can accommodate groups or solo. read more

Kings Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

Decent sushi, really nasty sake! We love that this is all you can eat sushi. You can order anything from the menu, but we focus on just sushi. You fill out a little paper menu with your selections then give it to the server whenever you are ready to order. When you want more food, just fill out another paper and hand it off again. Over all, sushi was not quite as good as other establishments we have been to and server could have been faster at times considering there were only three other tables while we were there. We tried two different sakes and ended up not even finishing them because they were so gross. read more

I came here on a Sunday. On the weekends, it's all day dinner menu and pricing. It's $16.99 for lunch and $26.99 for dinner. Kings Sushi is the only AYCE sushi restaurant and it has two locations, this location and one in West Ashley. When you come in, there's a claw machine and paper drawings by past customers lining the walls There are Japanese paintings on the wall and Japanese umbrellas lining the ceiling. Unfortunately, the only good aspect of our dining experience was the service. The waitress was nice greeted us and asked if we had any questions and checked on us periodically. The food came out quickly. The food is very subpar. For the sushi appetizers, they give only a little sashimi and mostly filler with cucumbers and salad. Some of the fried appetizers were acceptable, like the dried shui mai and spring roll. I wouldn't recommend the calamari or gyoza dumpling. The salmon bowl was okay, but definitely pass on the tuna martini and sashimi salad. The sushi rolls weren't good at all. They gave thin slices of fish and padded the rolls with plenty of rice. The spider roll (fried crab) which is a sushi roll staple was hard and inedible. The shrimp fried rice was decent. Of note, if you want sashimi (no rice), it's an extra 75 cents per piece. For dessert, the cheesecake isn't fully cheesecake, the very top as a thin layer of cheesecake but the rest is bread. read more

Came here looking for a sushi meal, and was surprised that it was all you can eat. Which is awesome if you eat a lot! I don't, but that's fine. Sushi was good, everything was a touch in the small side, but with all you can eat that isn't a big deal. Service was friendly and fast. Other than being AYCE nothing really jumped off the page here but it was fine and fairly priced. J.Ja read more

Kings Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

Walked in and walked out. I'm Not sure if this place if this place was busy earlier or they don't sweep. There was so many crumbs and crude under the table, it was disturbing. The seats were cracked and nasty. I was afraid to eat there. read more

There's a term in the popular vernacular nowadays called "mid." In this review I'll give facts to help bolster the understanding of the term but I got a feeling most won't need it. Located in a safe although sometimes difficult area to access (depending on the time of day), Kings Sushi is an extremely clean and safe restaurant to enjoy some Asian favorites. While the focus is on sushi, they do have other items like Habachi in case that scratch needs to be itched. For me I like the fire and knife twirling theatrics in front of me so I'll be abstaining from trying anything other than sushi and appetizers. First up are the fried spring rolls which I love so forgive my irritation when I got two Energizer battery sized rolls as I was expecting something more substantial. The flavors were average but fried perfectly however I felt like I had a fast one pulled on me so I was a little angry. As for the shrimp "tempura" skip this b/c it wasn't tempura at all but dinky, unflavored fried shrimp. I'm never happy when a restaurant takes a short cut and rather than making the proper tempura batter (ice cold and smooth) but deep fries the ingredients. Finally, the seaweed salad was another let down. The texture was on the money but it had an abundance of what I would describe as "sugar water" with little punch of rice wine vinegar and literally zero sesame oil. They completely missed the balance. Let's get to the star of the show, shall we? First up, the palate cleanser ie ginger was missing for my three rolls, which I like to eat between switching rolls to clean the mouth so new flavors can be fully experienced. I'm starting to get the feeling the attention to detail is sorely missing here, thus "mid." My first roll was the rainbow roll. From my experience as a former chef who's lived across America there's some wiggle room for the toppings. The requirement is a California roll that's topped with tuna, avocado and salmon but the last ingredient is most traditionally white fish, but then I've had shrimp, eel or whatever. Kings Sushi make theirs with tilapia and considering I hate this "semi-bottom" feeding fish therefore I wrote on the website "please substitute tilapia with white fish as I hate it." Considering they have white fish on the menu I thought it wouldn't be an issue. Well, what I got was a Rainbow roll of only tuna, salmon and avocado. This wasn't what I asked for but acceptable I suppose. Next up was the queen roll which honestly was pretty much the same as the rainbow roll but without the tuna. The rice was perfectly cooked and what I do like from their rolls is the Kani (krab) is shredded not whole. This is a very nice touch and makes for a much smoother experience. As for the fish it was as fresh as could be expected so I enjoyed the experience. My final sampling was the Hawaii roll which I wanted to try to mix things up a bit. Again, the tempura was subpar but the mango added a nice tropical sweetness that I really enjoyed. There's nothing spicy about the crab but the chefs special sauce was a nice compliment. I don't like spicy food but a little more kick would have played perfectly off the mango. To be perfectly honest the saving grace was the mango otherwise it would have been extremely boring. Kings Sushi has a very nice staff and they take care of their customers. However, I feel there's a lack of attention to detail or cutting corners. One of my biggest take-aways is the portion sizes are pretty small for the price. For comparison if one and a half rolls fill you up those equals about 3 here. The pics can speak for themselves. Now, would I go back? I review a LOT of places so there needs to be something that stands out to bring me back. Sadly, the term "mid" describes Kings Sushi thus I won't be back for a repeat performance. read more

Sushi King used to be decent, not great but decent. Today, it was horrible. They don't provide you with ginger and wasabi, you have to ask for it and wait to eat because it's another five mins. Everything one is sweet but when you ask for something, they forget. Restaurant was close to half full so it wasn't busy. They will miss things with regard to your order and things came out not as good, the crab ragoon. The salmon nigiri and just overall quality was horrid. How thinly it was sliced and portion from rice to fish was like 5:1 AND I AM not exaggerating. Last time coming here for sure. read more

Our go-to spot for months when we first moved down here. Always clean inside the dining room. Tables clean, great servers, good price. Delicious food. Unfortunately they committed the cardinal sin of causing my wife to get food poisoning. We eat lots of raw sushi there and I guess there were quality steps that were skipped in verifying cleanliness in the kitchen. A tough look for this spot for sure. read more

I'm torn on this place. $30 for the dinner is pretty insane. The volcano roll is wildly different from any volcano roll I've ever had before. It was cold and not spicy at all. Kinda a letdown. The steak and veggies were pretty good though, sake was tasty, $17 for 5 beers isn't too bad. They have a lot to choose from, but out of the 5 different rolls I tried, the Richmond roll was the only one that left me wanting another. If I come back it'll be for lunch considering it's $10 cheaper read more

Excellent food and excellent prices :) Love the edimame and the chicken kanji although everything I try here is good.

Service and Food are both outstanding. Have Ed or Laura help you, if you need anything. They are true Hospitality Professionals

Great first impression. Crystal our server she awesome. The all you can eat choices are a good size. Strongly recommend the Hawaii roll. Kid friendly with nuggets and mini corn dogs. Service was fast, we left content will definitely come back next time we come see the grandkids: read more

Kings Sushi - Hawaii Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

Had the shrimp yakisoba which tasted better than it looked. I ordered it To-go so maybe that's why. Forgot to take a picture. The noodles looked as though they had been sitting for some time, but the flavor was great. The shrimp were smaller and full of flavor! Crab rangoons were tasty -- the wonton wrapper was thicker than I'm used to. I also had the king roll -- would order this again! The restaurant itself is spacious and feels calm. Service was average, the guy was on the phone while taking my order so at times I didn't know if he was speaking to me. They have all you can eat sushi/entrees -- order one thing at a time, repeat until you're full! I'd go back to try this. read more

My favorite place! $28 all you can eat sushi, hibachi, and other good dishes. Unique way to order, food comes out pretty fast and looks pretty. Never had something undercooked/overcooked. Go every year for me and my wife's birthday. She doesn't love sushi but loves hibachi and the cucumber salad! My favorite sushi is the crazy monkey roll, sounds like an odd pairing but it WORKS!! read more

All you can eat sushi is a fine idea, sure. But please don't go here if you want sushi, or anything. Has got to be the worst service I've ever experienced at a restaurant. Sushi was very very average on top of that. I was hearing complaints from tables around us also, highly do not recommend poor service and below average food. read more

I Have been to King Sushi several times and it is always fresh and delicious! All the food comes out very quickly. The staff is always kind and available for you to put in another order of whatever you like. This is not a buffet... but better! Upon being seated, you fill out a paper to pick any appetizers you want, sushi, hibachi or teriyaki. Once that is served and devoured, you can fill out another paper for more food if you wish. The price is very reasonable, especially for weekday lunch. They ask that your first order be what you know you can eat, and if you wish to order more, that is fine. Just like most places, food waste is not good here! And you may even be charged extra if you leave too much waste! But don't fret, with everything coming out hot, or cold if you love sushi, you will want to devour everything you order! read more

Love this place! Food is really good and it's all you can eat. You may want to starve yourself for a couple days. Service is really great.

Great deal for lunch! Only 15.99/pp for lunch on weekdays and it is so worth it. If you think about it, 1 special roll at a restaurant is about $15-20 so you easily get your money's worth here. They have lots of different sushi rolls to pick from- special chef's rolls and all the basic rolls too plus sushi. The sushi rolls aren't amazing but they're still good and worth what you pay for. Highly recommend the Sea Angel and Christmas rolls. The pork gyoza, pork Katsu, and shrimp shumai were SO good. Must get. The crab rangoons, seaweed salad, Kani salad, avocado salad, veggie tempura, and miso soup were also good. There's lots of room to sit inside and the service was just fine. We got all our food very shortly after we put our orders in. Whether you're looking for sushi or hot Asian food, there's something here for everyone. They also have noodles, fried rice, teriyaki, and hibachi on the menu as well as a kids menu with chicken nuggets and fries. Overall, really great deal for all you can eat. Sushi was good, kitchen appetizers were great. I will definitely come back! read more

This place has just opened on Dorchester Rd in the Oakbrook area of Summerville. It's very large on the inside, booths and tables. There were quite a few large groups there together, so they are definitely accommodating to different group sizes. They have a different way of doing all you can eat, without it being buffet style. We paid $14.99 a person, sat at a booth with a menu, some ordering forms and a pencil. Concept is, you can order anything off the menu made fresh to order for you. Menu is everything you could want from a Japanese restaurant, Soups (miso and others), salads (simple salad to seaweed salad), hibachi entree (chicken, beef, shrimp), teriyaki entree, fried rice with a meat or shrimp, special sushi rolls and simple sushi rolls. BUT they ask that you order 1-2 items at a time to reduce food waste. But don't worry, you will be full before you walk out of there. We ordered 1 side of crab rangoon and 1 side of edamame, to start with. Then my friend got the shrimp fried rice entree - this was a pretty good sized amount of shrimp fried rice. I got the spicy angel sushi roll, and it was really delicious, not too spicy and not too large or small of a roll. Next round was more shrimp fried rice for my friend and I got the hibachi shrimp entree. I really enjoyed this entree not just in taste and freshness but also the size. It isn't ginormous amounts so that you over gorge yourself or are wasteful, it's smaller amounts so you can have small meals of different things. We enjoyed the good food, interesting ordering concept and were quite full, not overstuffed, when we walked out, with minimal left on our plates. Highly recommend the special sushi rolls, lots of things to choose from and was a great roll. read more

So maybe my fault for ordering food for take out but this was probably the worst Vegas Roll I have ever had. First, the whole roll is always deep fried with tempura. For their rolls they only deep fried the dish. What little there was. Almost the entire roll was rice. Plus it was SMALL. And they charged $10 for this. read more

Kings Sushi - plate of sushi and chopsticks - Sushi Bars Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

We were craving sushi and saw that this restaurant offered all you can eat! So we drove over across town to try it out. You walk in and are seated and presented with a piece of paper and pencil to order. You pick whatever you want and it's made fresh for you. When you're finished you just fill out another card and more is brought to you. So I thought the sushi was great, but the other food that was brought out was kind of bland which was kind of disappointing. read more

Wonderful place to eat if you can scarf down 40 pieces of sushi like me! Good selection of fish too, common stuff like Salmon, Crab, and Tuna, but also more unique options like mackerel.

We just door dashed this restaurant for the first time. Not knowing what to expect, we were very impressed! Food arrived hot and it was so delicious! The crab Rangoon was so flavorful! The chicken fried rice was amazing and came with yum yum sauce which was a pleasant surprise and made the dish better! I have egg drop soup for later that I'm sure will also be amazing. We will definitely be returning! New favorite place! read more

2nd time here at this new location. Tonight's visit wasn't as quick as when we came Wednesday night but they also weren't as busy. No liquor yet so no sake. Per the waitress they should have it by next week. Same selections as the other location but this location I feel is a lot better. For some reason the coke here is really good. Place is clean and smaller than the west Ashley location. Seating was quick and food comes out within a decent time. I recommend the TNT roll, spicy tuna roll and the rainbow roll. For appetizers I enjoy the miso soup, shrimp shu mai, seaweed salad and the pot stickers. Price is 24.99 per adult. Drinks are not included. Sashimi is 75 cents a piece and is only for dine in. Give this place a try if you're looking for a AYCE sushi place. read more

usually love the food here but our visit started off with this and in retrospect they did absolutely nothing. they took the soup and this weird shit and said nothing. they also overcharged me, but being Xmas eve day I let it go, but you tell me what the hell is blue and green and supposed to be in my egg drop soup? I know this doesn't belong in there. Be careful at this place. They may be serving cat at this point. Go to the Google reviews and you can see the pictures. read more

Kings Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

We love sushi so we tried this place as it was our first time here. There's hardly any fish at all in the rolls . It's all you can eat. They have an ala carte menu as well but that will run you much more than the all you can eat. I would much rather spend a little more for quality sushi than this all you can eat veggie rolls . That's basically what they do, stuff the rolls with veggies and hardly any fish so their price point will make sense for them. I do not recommend at all. Not to mention the servers kept going outside to smoke and came right back without washing their hands . Gross. read more
