This place is awesome, food is great, customer service is even better, great ambiance and love their all you can eat. Highly recommend!

Sushi Ai offered later delivery than Korean House (bento house?) so I ordered three rolls, 5 pieces of nigiri, and a spicy miso soup. Took about an hour for delivery through Seamless. Salmon skin roll was terrible due to the over fried salmon skin. World series roll is described as tuna, salmon, and yellowtail but it's mushed up nonsense of panko crumbs and spicy mayo. Volcano roll had deep fried crab topped with avocado, tuna, and eel. I picked at the roll and found the rice was red under the pieces of tuna. Along with that, all the rice was soggy from all the diluted eel sauce used. The nigiri was better but each piece was overpacked with rice. The hotate (big scallop), eel, and spicy mayo scallop were great while the surf clam was fine and the salmon nigiri puny. Delivery was $5 for Sushi Ai. I don't recommend Sushi Ai for the overpacked rice, small pieces of fish, and terrible rolls. read more

Delicious food. Fastest I've gotten any food in any restaurant, EVER. The goyza was absolutely immaculate, and the rolls were great. A new favorite of mine, I will definitely be coming back! read more

They are in of some help. There was one guy waiting all the tables. The rolls were not tightly wrapped. So, they fell apart as soon as you picked them up. read more

The food was excellent and the waiters were very helpful and nice, I love there food I when with my cousin and she recommended the place

So disappointed! I just picked up Sushi Ai for lunch. I tried the bento box for the first time because it seems like such a great value for everything you're getting! But the soup was cold, sushi was warm, and the salad was just meh. The best part unfortunately was the crab rangoon and white rice. The steak and veggie part almost had a teriyaki soupy sauce on it, it spilled everywhere. There also wasn't a lot of steak there and the veggies weren't cooked long enough. I LOVE their sushi and eating dine in, but I probably won't order carry out again. read more

I can't believe I have never written a review for this place, as it is so dearly special to me -- and many others. But, from the moment you step into Sushi Ai, you are greeted by the maneki-neko (waving cat figure), the most delicious scent, an air of comfort. Every time I come back to this town, I know I can come to Sushi Ai with my bestina and we can hang. just hang. the coziest hang with the best sushi. and not only the best sushi in town, but the best sushi i've ever had! i don't mean to be inappropriately saccharine, but please know i write this with an earnest soul and sincere heart, i love this place. read more

Everything was great. The rainbow and St. Louis rolls were my favorites. Will definitely be back! read more

I guess you have to give one star, you can't give no stars. We have been going to this restaurant for sometime. Recently we noticed a staffing change and with that came poor service. We have had friends that have gone there and have complained about missing food items, long wait times to get your food, and generally poor service. Tonight we experienced all of the above. I'm sorry to say But their higher prices are not worth it. I guess the new wallpaper required them to raise their prices to cover the cost, but that should be on them not the customer. They have always had great food, great prices, great service, and I'm sorry to say that none of that is happening anymore. read more

Enjoy this location! However there was a small mistake made, and I found something that looked like a staple in my crab shumai. Luckily I caught it before I swallowed it. No cuts in my mouth, thankfully. I'm sure it was an accident read more

Very lovely place to dine. My partner and I have became regulars because of the outstanding service -- it's just that good! I will say that the rolls themselves lack protein, but everything has always been delicious. read more

Ordered the "Rock N Roll," apparently their definition of 'deep-fried' doesn't involve any sort of frying. Order arrived totally raw. The yakitori came without any sauce and was clearly a Middle-Eastern- style kabob and not yakitori. If it was possible to leave a zero, I would have left a zero. read more

Absolutely love sushi and have been utilizing the Clayton takeout "all you can eat" option. It's been decent: Not bad, but definitely not the same quality or rolls you get when they were freshly made. Suki and Yang took care of ensuring the entire restaurant was full. They served the packed place with ease and professionalism and comfort. read more

It really is a shame. The portions of fish in there rolls and sushi was less than 1/3 normal. They just lost a customer.

Everyone was wearing masks and social distancing while I was in there. They were all very nice and the service was fast!

I have visited their other locations in Maryland heights and downtown many of time and the sushi and food is always amazing! Well me and boyfriend decided to try this location as I had some the other day from other location and he tried it for first time and was In love. Needless to say we came to this one as was in the area and all I can say is never again. The rolls were so loose and poorly assembled that you couldn't even use chopsticks to eat them as they fell apart soon as picked up. Then they did not taste nowhere near as good as the other locations. The St. Louis roll which is our favorite wasn't even prepared right and it was only 4 pieces not the 6 and was so sloppily put together I didn't even eat but 2 pieces out the 4 different rolls we ordered. The fried rice didn't even have as much flavor and was dry. Very disappointed after spending over $60 not to mention I got sick after I ate it hours later. So yea I will stick to the Maryland heights location and downtown. read more

My daughter and I walked in at 9:15 PM knowing that they close at 10 so they have an all you can eat menu for &19.99 so we decided to order just one time first thing the hostess says we close at 10 and the sushi bar closes at 9:30 we were hurried ,rushed and not paid attention to after we got our order and then decided to give us water! We have gone here 40 times in 3 years and was never treated like this before!! We will think long and hard before ever coming here again !!! One star is too high!!! You won't believe this after rushing us we couldn't eat everything we ordered so they charge us an extra $12 for what we couldn't eat this is absurd if they would've kicked us out at 10 o'clock exactly we could've ate the rest of our food and saved the $12 I really wanted to pitch a fit but not in front of my 20-year-old daughter don't eat here unless it's well within your parameters of bad service bad prices!!!! read more

Great sushi . Highly recommend. I like going to this place a lot. Try it your self

I use to eat here like at least once a week. Food is always pretty good! You really can't beat the price for the sushi lunch special of $12.99 for all you can eat. I usually try a lot of different rolls. One of my favorite one is Salmon with avocado and American Dream Roll which has shrimp tempura. I enjoy coming here after a good workout and enjoy there sushi for unbeatable price. The only thing is it's a hit and miss with servers, most of the time we have the same one who can be nice and next day be rude. I want to come to a restaurant and have good time not feel like I want to go off in the sever because I'm asking for things I need and she gives you a weird look or is rude towards you. Overall it's a good spot for sushi and the price. Needs Improvement of serv read more

The food was delicious and the service was great! Highly recommend going during lunch time! The all you can eat is only $12.99 per person.

Ugh. Worst sushi ever. It makes me sad that people come here and think this is what sushi is. Ordered rolls - rolls that normally from anywhere else come with fish - NOT tempura fried stuff - quality was subpar and the server didn't give us a first or second glance - the whole time we were there - didn't ask if we needed anything - so I did not ask her about my rolls being incorrect because I figured she didn't know anyway - and why wait for them to remake subpar sushi - I didn't want to eat the first round. My daughter and I are both feeling a little gross - Do yourself a favor and go another place for your sushi. !!!!!! read more

I used GrubHub app to place an order last night with Sushi Ai. Food arrived within an hour of the order but they forgot one of the items in the order. Also the salmon roe was SPOILED. I'm just glad I didn't get food poisoning from this place. This is so strange to me because I never had such problems ordering from the Zumbehl location. The only "safe" things in my order were the ebi nigiri and the masago. However they jam-packed the masago nigiri with mostly rice and the small amount of masago was spilling everywhere. Also the rice itself was terrible. Believe it or not, sushi rice is just as important as the other ingredients. It was kind of mushy and they didn't use enough seasoning (not enough vinegar!) Was very unappetizing. Yakitori for my boyfriend was TINY like we're talking maybe 4 tiny pieces of meat on a couple of skewers. Not worth the $10 I paid so I can't recommend ordering this. He said it tasted alright but definitely not worth the price. They did refund me for the roll they forgot to deliver and for the one salmon roe (ikura) nigiri that was spoiled. Delivery guy was very polite and courteous too. I don't hate the place but I doubt I would ever order anything "traditional" here again (e.g. I almost ordered some sweet shrimp AKA "amaebi nigiri" and I'm so glad I didn't.) I get the impression people out here only seem interested in ordering the Americanized sushi such as the cream cheese rolls with spicy sauce on them so any of the very traditional ingredients just don't have as much turnover. My advice to them is don't even include something on your menu if you cannot guarantee it's freshness/quality. I hope this feedback helps others and the restaurant. read more

So my boyfriend asked the host (as soon as we were seated) about the different types of sushi on the all you can eat menu and the host walked away with no explanation. We assumed he just didn't hear us and waited for the server. When the server appeared she was curt and took our orders in a hurry. Fast forward to when my boyfriend received his food...it was wrong. Instead of simply rectifying the situation she argued with him. She told him that it was "his choice" and that basically she hadn't been asked about the menu so it wasn't her problem. When I received my food, the order was correct but the amount of meat in the roll was laughable. We will never return to this location and we will make sure to warn everyone we know. Good service would've made this experience tolerable, at best. read more

This is my favorite sushi spot. They get your food out so fast. I took my sister and we got THREE orders of gyoza, Rangoon, and 5 rolls of sushi for $25. It only took us 30 minutes to get in and out. read more

Good Service and food. Reasonably priced. Waitress was very polite, and we were seated immediately, even during rush hour. I got the St Louis Roll and my partner got a different roll. We ended up sharing a thing of chicken fried rice. All very delicious. read more

Good food, but the wait for food after ordering was ridiculous. Minus 1 star over the long wait for our order and long wait between orders. Server's were so polite. We were a party of 4. The wait was 20 minutes to be seated. It is a very small place, so it's understandable. The diner's had to wait so long, because of to-go orders. It was a constant to-go orders being boxed at the Chef's counter. In the dining area, 3 or 4 Chefs were putting out Sushi Rolls, non-stop. The back kitchen, other foods were being prepared. It got slower our 2nd order. We ordered small amounts each time, as not to waste any food. 3rd time we got tired of waiting. The server realized we didn't get our order, brought 2 of the items and forgot the other 2. We decided to just leave, so we went ahead and paid our bill and left. Next time, we'll place one BIG order. The server's and Chef's did their best and we tipped generously, as they deserved it. I can't blame them for slow service. They're run ragged. They need more help! We had Miso soup (bland), Haumaki (pretty good spring rolls), Shumai (tiny enclosed dumplings...fishy...we didn't care for them), Veggie Tempura (very good), Crab Rangoon (excellent). All of the appetizers were piping hot! Loved that! We had fried rolls, sushi, and rolls and they were all fresh and really good. Did we get our $23.99 each worth? No, but it was sure fun trying. It was great sharing everything and being able to enjoy all the different appetizers that we'd normally not get, as well as the variety of Sushi. I recommend Sushi Ai. Just be prepared for a long wait in between orders. Take a short nap wait. read more

I've been coming here for a number of years and you really can't beat the price. All you can eat sushi and apps for $13 at lunch and $22 at dinner is a hell of a deal. If you do it any other way, you're eating here wrong. Yes, the (2) waiters have some type of disposition, but they're probably just bored. They only stop by to pick up a piece of paper with an order and refill drinks and take no more than 5 steps to the maker, and minimal communication with guests...I'd be bored too. Their crab rangoons are served hot and melting which is the way I like it and frankly, some of the best I've had for such a simple item. Only setback to this place is yes, the quality you get it determined by who the sushi chef is and how many people are in this small establishment. But more times than often, the sushi is stuffed and you leave happy. My favorites are the eel sashimi, shrimp tempura, Philadelphia, and the honey roll. read more

Easily the worst Sushi Ai location. Their "eel sauce" looks and tastes suspiciously like maple syrup. Honestly the worst part of this restaurant was the service. The wait staff basically ignores you, and acts like waiting on you and taking your food orders is a chore. Do yourself a favor and drive a few miles East to the St. Peters Zumbehl location. read more

I really like this place. Typically get take out and it is correct the majority of the time. It's nice that they have the barrier up at the door and the contraption they crafted to keep everyone safe. Was extremely impressed. Spicy Tuna is read more

Extremely disappointing experience at this location. The St Charles and Maryland Heights locations have always been good, but this was like the idea of stereotypical all ya can eat sushi spot. I got 5 rolls and 3 of the rolls consisted of entirely rice and cream cheese. You could barely see any fish or the other ingredients in any of the rolls. The other two rolls were some kind of fish mix, almost creamy like a tuna salad. Pure garbage, will never be back. I can't see how this location is still in business. read more

Sushi Ai attempts to hide their lack of quality sushi with a large presentation. It might come out on a boat. And it will be a boat of bad sushi. The service is also really bad. They follow the bad service up by adding gratuity to orders no matter the size of the group. Keep an eye out for it if you happen to venture in. read more

the sushi is extremely low quality.... I have had better sushi from schnucks. it is not appetizing in appearance or taste here. the sushi ai on zumbehl is phenomenal and we went into this location with the wrong expectations I think... don't waste your time or money here. read more

If you go to this place it's definitely worth you getting the buffet and if you do the buffet and your not allergic to shrimp you have to get the shrimp tampru if that's spelled right but it's honest quality all around it's really good and worth getting it read more

Well, we've been here before. Sushi was ok, definitely had better (Fried roll was mushy, not crispy), but we wanted to try it again. Wow, what a mistake! Should have known better when we walked in and were greeted by an obviously frustrated employee that was upset he would have to serve yet another group of customers. Will not be going back. read more
