    1/2 the seating

    Located on University Dr across from Nova University , this buffet has sushi, Chinese, and hibachi. Hadn't been here in a long time and we decided to give it a try. We went right when it reopened for dinner and everything was beautifully displayed. The sushi was fresh and a good variety of rolls. Hibachi chefs are always ready to cook up whatever you bring them. Check the web for occasional coupons of bringing a small group.

    Yummy food

    First time coming here - I must say I was impressed by this buffet ! All the food was super fresh ! Nothing was left sitting ! I never went to a buffet besides a Brazilian steakhouse where the food was all hot ! The service was great as well. The only draw back is the price , it's more on the high price mark for a buffet . About $30 plus a person. Besides that it's a good treat , and it was clean . I didn't feel as though it was just any regular buffet. Tots recommend!

    Came here with some friends on a Saturday night and it was not full at all . Food was fresh and warm , just delicious! There's so many options from sushi , to different styles cooked chicken , to desserts ! The waitress was super friendly and nice and make sure we had enough water or anything that we might need . Clean and organized , grate for family or for a chill night out .

    Something light noodles, fried chicken, green beans, teriyaki chicken and a mussel.

    Very delicious, fresh food! They had a little bit of everything you wanna order when you get Chinese food. With a lovely sushi station. Everything was very delectable. Would definitely recommend eating here.

    Really good food here we are regulars. Really fresh sushi. Salmon and avocado roll is my favorite one. They have a really good hot food area.. dinner time they have crab legs. They have a great hibachi section. Nice dessert . Service is really good there always fill our glass. and everyone's very friendly. And the atmosphere is very relaxing and we enjoy going there.

    ,权重高) Absolutely obsessed with Shinju Japanese Buffet--easily the best AYCE Japanese spot in Davie! The sashimi is super fresh (tuna belly and sweet shrimp are my go-tos) and the sushi rolls are made to order, no sad pre-made stuff here. The teppanyaki station has great flavor, and the staff refills the food stations super fast even during peak hours. Service is friendly and attentive, the space is clean, and the price is unbeatable for the quality you get. I've brought my family and friends here multiple times, and everyone leaves full and happy. 10/10 recommend, will be coming back nonstop!

    No buffet is perfect (unless you're in Vegas), and this one has its hits and misses. That said, the variety is good for the price, and there are definitely some standout dishes worth going back for. While not every item was a winner, overall it's a solid value, and I would definitely return.

    Very clean buffet with many food options. lots of different food to try and very friendly service. Has a lot more sushi options than I have seen at other buffets as well.

You have no idea what you are missing out on. The atmosphere along with dining experience is perfect every time we visit here.

Today, we ordered the Otoro spoons, sushi moriwase, chef special appetizers, chicken pad Thai, grilled octopus, toro sashimi, scallop sashimi, sweet shrimp nigiri, and ube flan for dessert. The quality of the fish was fresh as usual, and the customer service was on point. Thank you so much Ha, for serving us, and we will definitely be back for some more sushi in the near future. Yes, I would recommend this place to other sushi lovers as well as customers who enjoy kitchen food because they aren't yet accustomed to eating raw fish.

The eatery was buzzing on a Saturday evening with its modernly decorated dining room constantly filling up. Seating about 80, it also sports a sushi bar. Our server, Jensen, provided great service and excellent suggestions. I had an otoro version of a margarita. It came with sugar on the rim. Not to my liking. We ordered the coconut rock shrimp appetizer that came with large, meaty shrimp and a great dipping sauce. But the shrimp had no flavor and was very bland. We also had the tuna crispy rice. The presentation was lovely. But the appetizer was underwhelming. For dinner we had the cucumber skin roll with tuna, salmon, and a avocado. Again, a beautiful presentation with tuna that melted in your mouth. But again, not impressive. The standout was the curry udon with chicken katsu; thick, meaty udon noodles; and a delectable curry sauce so good I slurped up each drop. Of course we had to try the pandan creme brulee and the ube flan. The latter being the better of the two desserts. Dinner for two with 1 alcoholic drink, 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, 2 desserts, tax, and tip was $128.

Lately though, it feels like the experience has changed. Portions are noticeably smaller, especially the street fries, and some of the rolls we originally fell in love with either taste different or have been modified in ways that take away from what made them so good in the first place. On top of that, it feels like they're nickel-and-diming customers more than before. It's disappointing because this used to be a place we constantly recommended to people. The creativity and flavor are still there in moments, but the value and consistency just don't feel the same anymore.

    A New Favorite in Davie -- Sumo Asian Kitchen Delivers Quality & Heart…read more I've been on the hunt for a new sushi spot, and Sumo Asian Kitchen in Davie absolutely blew me away. I'm not bougie, but I do know and appreciate high‑quality sushi -- and this place delivers it with heart. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the sweetest couple who I can only assume are the owners. They were warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely joyful about making sure every customer has a great experience. That kind of hospitality is rare, and it set the tone for the whole meal. My husband ordered the Hawaiian Fried Rice with chicken, and it was packed with flavor -- perfectly cooked, generous portions, and beautifully presented. I went straight for the Sushi Nori Platter, which came with nine stunning pieces of sushi. Every single bite was fresh and delicious, but the standouts were the Madai (so delicate and clean) and the salmon belly, which was rich, buttery, and absolutely amazing. You can taste the quality in every piece. The food, the service, the atmosphere -- everything came together to create such a memorable meal. Sumo Asian Kitchen is officially our new go‑to sushi spot, and I'm already excited to come back. Highly recommend!

These were full portions, and too big for us in one sitting. I ordered medium, which tasted pretty mild in restaurant, but my leftovers the next day were spicy (and so delicious)! So if you're the type of person to bring half your meal home, I highly recommend you order one level down from your normal tolerance. The second time I went for lunch, and got the red curry. The menu said it came with miso soup or salad, and I asked for miso soup but the woman gestured up to the small salad bar. Turns out, that day was chicken soup, and I'm pretty happy about it because I don't think I would have ever thought to order chicken soup from a Thai restaurant. I had two bowls, and I would have gotten more if I wasn't trying to leave room for my entree. It didn't work out anyway; even the lunch portion was huge, so half came home. Unbelievable deal, I think with tax and tip (I think I tipped $4?) my total was still only $16 and change. The service is phenomenal, the restaurant is clean, and they have won my heart. I'll be back!
