I took my Mother to lunch a few weeks ago. I ordered several sushi rolls, which were off in taste; but I ate 2 out of 3. I was unable to eat the shrimp tempura roll, as the rice was very mushy. My Mother ordered the shrimp and noodles, she took a bite and did not like it as all she could taste was soy sauce. They offered her another dish. She chose the steak and vegetables and didn't like that. She said it tasted like it was left in the refrigerator cooked and uncovered and didn't want to try anything else. I asked to speak to the Manger as my Mom didn't eat and did feel I should have to pay for her meal. The waiter said the Manager would be over after he finished with another customer. Twenty minutes later four police officers were at our table., stating they were called because I refused to pay the bill. No, I asked to speak to the Manager. My 82-year-old mother was very embarrassed. I just asked to speak to a Manager. I paid the check in full and tipped the waiter. The police apologized to my mom and suggested we take pictures of the food and contact the Corporate Office. I have, no response to date. Be careful!!! read more

Took almost half an hour just for 4 waters and then there workers sitting on their phone playing with their hair in the mirror. Horrible service. read more

I was thoroughly disappointed with my visit to Sushi King. The food alone was disgusting. It wasn't fresh at all, even simple rolls were lacking quality, the food took way too long, and my stomach hurt when I left. The staff was unfriendly and unprofessional. Also, the dining hall was dirty and looked disgusting, not to mention very outdated. I DO NOT recommend wasting your time eating here. read more

For our dinner tonight, husband and I decided to try the ever so popular Sushi King. First off let's begin with best part about the restaurant.. ITS A BUFFET!! AYCE (all you can EAT), my friends you read that correctly. This includes the appetizers, hibachi, specialty rolls, classic rolls, hand rolls, and soups. This is honestly biggest bang for you buck and if you're smart you will come hungry! If it's your first time here you've gotta try the following: Orchard Roll White Dragon Roll Cowboy Roll Classics Sushi Rolls Hand rolls After all the sushi disappeared and I could no longer order I knew my absolute favorite rolls were the Orchard and White dragon roll. However, I won't rate this as my favorite spot because the fish wasn't as fresh and it tasted mushy in a few rolls. Also, we found crab shells inside the snow crab roll. The waitress apologized right away but management never came to apologize for the accident. But nonetheless.. food was still good but questionable on freshness. read more

If I could give this restaurant a ZERO I would! I have been here a couple of times and everytime the customer service get worse each time. The floor, table, and booth is very dirty. When we ask to move they said they couldn't move us. We ordered appetizers and sushi at the SAME time and sushi came out first.. 30 min have pass and no appetizers was brought out. Our water and lemon look weird and when we ask to speak to the manager he was very unprofessional and kept saying "he's confused" when we kept pointing out our concerns. I WOULD NOT recommend this sushi king to anybody. I would not waste my time! read more

I don't know why this place got bad reviews. I thought it was delicious. Sure it's not the nicest but it's $20 a head for all you can eat so it's not going to be all that fancy. But food quality was great with speedy service. I can be kinda prissy but I learned not to judge a book by its cover and really enjoyed it. read more

Unimpressive comparing to other AUCE sushi buffets in Hampton Roads. Nothing tasted good. Sashimi are extra 50 cents per piece. It's already $20.99. Yakisoba was so disgusting. Too much sauce and too salty. Hibachi was a joke. Tasted unseasoned, so plain. The only thing good was shrimp tempura. You are way better off at Sakura AUCE at anytime. read more

Bad customer service I had to ask for the basic stuff(a straw and silverware) they didn't even give me chopsticks the sushi wasn't all that the chicken I ordered was dry the people were probably ready to get off after all it was 2:30pm read more

Wasn't worth the 18.99. Food was less than pleasurable. Had to send shrimp back. It taste like rubber. Fried rice tastes old. Was sick as soon as I left. Hostess was rude and threw menus on the table 0/10 for service. read more

I should've known I'd be in for disappointment when I read the reviews before coming here. Next time I'll listen!! I ordered the lunch all you can eat Sushi for $17.99. My gf ordered the dinner all you can eat for $25 because she wanted something they only served on the dinners menu. So I ordered the avocado roll and vegetable roll. Because I'm a vegan. I also ordered edemame and vegetable fried rice. My server didn't seem to understand English very well and had to constantly lean over our drinks when he spoke broken English. So they brought out the edemame first which should be been easy to steam. Next they brought out our rolls. They were ok. It wasn't bad or great but it made due. Then they brought out my fried rice. But it had egg in it. When I told my server he said it wasn't egg but was cabbage like i didn't know what egg tasted like. but my girlfriend tasted it just for confirmation and she said it was egg. so my server took the plate back and confirmed it was a egg and said they will remake it without egg. so they bought a new fried rice out maybe after 10 minutes or so and it was OK. It was salty, but I started eating it and once I got to the end, I noticed a piece of chicken in my fried rice, so I was very upset!! I asked to speak to the manager so I can complain, and he hardly understood me as well but all he did was take off 2 dollars from a $50 order, needless to say I was not satisfied and I will not be coming back!! read more

On entry we saw our hostess in conversation with a coworker. She then took our table size and left for roughly 3-4 minutes to find us a seat. (We requested a booth) When another guest arrived, though 2 front of house employees, including the hostess, came to the front both did not greet them. We were then escorted to our seat which was comfortable for 3 adults and 2 children (3 yr/o and 6yr/o) Our drink order was taken immediately and roughly 5 minutes later we received them. During that time we met our server, a younger girl who seemed like this may be her first job. She was very polite and gave us napkins, straws, forks and chopsticks. She then left for roughly 8-10 minutes before returning to take our order. It may have been her very first day because she needed to spend a good amount of time navigating the ordering tablet. That said, with time she accurately took our entire tables order. Perhaps another 8-10 minutes later several of the dishes arrived and roughly 5 minutes after that the rest arrived all at once. All of the food was excellent. The clear soup warmed the soul with a deep and rich flavor. The beef gyoza dumplings were hot but not molten, with a soft body and crisp edge. The yakitori chicken skewers were equally warm and were very tender and easy to bite. The sushi (in my case the Spicy girl [51a]) was crispy and well sauced for a balanced flavor. Overall making for a good variety of flavors and textures giving a satisfied feeling from the meal. We ordered a few more items over the next 35-40 minutes all with adequate attention from the server. We did need to give our patience and consideration towards the greenhorn server but it was obvious she was putting in the effort which meant a lot to me. The experience for me came out as a 7.5/10 for having excellent food and a thoughtful service but a lack in overall training in the front of house. One small suggestion for the dining experience would be to add coasters to the table as the slick table design along with the cup type left condensation buildup on the table frequently. read more

The food was great! You have so much to choose from. I really enjoy that you can get sushi and hibachi and an entree for one price. The freshness was worth the wait. The staff was okay. We did have to wait a little longer to get a server to come to our table. But the food was very good! read more

This was my second time being at this location and I have to say this was honestly great experience. I decided to come during the lunch hour and they had an all you can eat special. The sushi was great and the Miso soup is a good starter. Bobby, my server, was very kind and would let us know when our food was on the way and more. Textbook perfect employee to say the least. I recommend the Alaska roll if you like salmon. All around great service! read more

The Food and service could have been better! The server was very nice but very MIA! He forgot one of my orders. the sushi was not cut into pieces so I picked it up and it went everywhere and fell out. They drenched some of my roles in sauce. Then I asked for a substitute (which the Sushi King in Norfolk, an 2 Va Beach locations do) they said it would he an up charge. On top of the food not being up to par, to get this food took forever. I am 1 person and order about 4 roles which took forever and when I got them it was just a mess. read more

I visited last Wednesday and got the best server ever. I had him on my first visit and am thankful I had him for my most recent! The food was awesome and with him I was able to customize my order, which I have never done there before. I don't eat mushrooms so they were left off. The egg rolls that came in orders of one actually came in an order of 4 and lasted me the entire visit. The service was amazing, food, was great and I really enjoyed this visit. I wish I caught his name because he is an absolute gem for Sushi King to have.. I wish all the servers had his attitude and thoughtfulness towards their customers. read more

This place was reasonably priced and the food was fresh and delicious. It was my first time there and I will definitely be returning. My only complaint is it was abnormally cold.Dragon Roll Volcano Roll Richmond Roll read more

This place is worse every few weeks. I travel here every few weeks for work. I rotate through the restaurants in Peninsula center where my hotel is. My last visit to Sushi King was pretty bad. They increased the price and the service was horrible. It was not the waitress but the speed of the kitchen. They bought an item every 15 minutes or so. It took forever to get even singe pieces of sushi to make a meal. I recommend Twisted Crab around the corner. read more

Whenever we come to town we MUST go here! We frequent both this location and the one in Newport News, this one is my preferred location. Parking can be a bit of a struggle but I prefer the ambience of this location. Great service, short wait for orders to arrive at the table, good quality food. read more

I hate it here. Will not be coming back. They literally talked my head off just to be a jerk. Do not recommend

The service is great compared to the sushi king in Newport News! The food always comes out fast and fresh and server is always attentive. All you can eat sushi and other items at a great price. read more

I paid $6.50 for this roll, of which this is a "generous" depiction of the cross section. Pathetic. read more

Sushi King - Hampton - I paid $6.50 for this roll. Imagine what "quality" you get from the All You Can Eat model. Pathetic. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Essentially a Chinese/Japanese cuisine "style" buffet where food is brought out to you by masked ninja wannabes so we don't have to roll our fat arses to a steamed tray buffet line. Smart business model to keep us rubes from gorging. You see, your appetite diminishes while you anxiously await the next ninja attack. Pricey. Dinner for 1 was $30 with one $7 glass of wine and another $5 for tip ($35 total). The value just wasn't there, but the hot waitress may require another looky-loo. read more

food is good. fast, friendly service. but the paper towel dispenser in the men's bathroom sucks ass

Sushi King is sushi king if you've had one you've had them all. This particular location has the best ambiance of them all in my opinion. They do not have a full bar like some other locations however. Pictured are the Christmas roll, Vegas roll, crab Rangoon & shrimp shumai, beef & shrimp teriyaki. Yum! read more

Found hair in my food! I'm sick to my stomach and nothing was done!!!! I come here weekly but won't be back because of lack of compassion. Was told there's no one in the kitchen with straight black hair. Ma'am I'm a red head so it's not mine! read more

This place has gotten so dirty I've never seen it this bad Our server was not on point food came slow and the bathrooms were so dirty toilets were overflowing and the sinks were caked with black mold Never again I'll come here I've even took pictures how bad the bathroom was read more

The food was great!!!!!! My friend helped me to choose which rolls to try. Pictured are the volcano , Las Vegas and sea angel rolls. I had shrimp hibachi.... next time I will skip hibachi and do noodles or tempura. It is a great date night spot. The wait was lengthy at 7:30 pm but worth it. read more

I have had many great experiences at this sushi king. Service is fast and the food is great.

Multiple orders via yelp/grub hub and they consistently leave items out of the order. Usually one item but this time, my last time using the apps, they left 3 items off of the order. Three sushi rolls left off of a $150 order. Grub hub refunded the cost but it is clear the business cannot accommodate online orders without significant mistakes. I will not be using ordering from this business again. Unfortunate, as I enjoy the food. read more

Ordered off grub hub tonight and wish I would have looked at reviews! For 50$ I could have went to a much better restaurant. First order was 20-30 minutes late. The portion sizes were awful..hoping to feed a family and it's a snack. Then. If you have good allergies or don't want to pick through your choices--DO NOT order sushi. They pack every order you choose into one box. It's all mixed up. Which means you get to finger every piece trying to find out whose is whose. Disgusting-not to mention it could be dangerous with any type of severe food allergy. I called restaurant and they hung up on me saying I need to deal with GrubHub. Absolute worst in this city. Harris Teeter's sushi is 500% better and each sushi roll is individually boxed. You don't even get a roll at this place. You get maybe 3 small pieces read more

Apparently, if you order shrimp fried rice here, you get white rice with maybe some shrimp. If you want what other places call shrimp fried rice, spend another $5 for "hibachi shrimp." And make sure you check your to-go orders because once you pay, you won't be getting a refund if they close your tab. Went back, and the "manager on duty" refused to give me a refund. HIGHLY dissatisfied. read more

Teeny tiny overcooked shrimp for the hibachi shrimp. Nothing like you'd expect from a real hibachi place. Barely any shrimp in crunchy shrimp roll. Yum yum sauce tasted like spicy mayo. Girl gave attitude over phone over an extra yum yum for the sushi on my delivery. Mainly vegetables. Rice and vegetables were only good thing. Except the rice was ruined by the spicy mayo yum yum. read more

The best thing about this Sushi King is it's location. It's located in the heart of PTC, and makes it very convenient for Hampton Roads shoppers. The service is great, and usually the sushi comes out very fast. The sushi is about 95% rice, 4% seaweed/veggies and... maybe 1% sushi. Myself, being a self-proclaimed sushi snob, will not be visiting this Sushi King again. read more

Loved it. Food was great, service was fast and the personnel was very nice. Loved it and will definitely come back. read more

This is the run of the mill AYCE sushi. I believe it's the only one in Hampton which would make it popular solely for that reason. The quality is average, but I was surprised at how tasty the Spicy Tuna roll was. Things that I would steer clear from is the hibachi chicken and steak (tough cut). It was so bland. I think the only flavor was from the hibachi sauce. It was literally a bland piece of protein with sauce squeezed on top. The onions were practically raw with the hibachi chicken, too. Overall, it's a nicely decorated sushi restaurant but that's the only noteworthy impression. read more

I have been eating at Sushi King for years, but this is the first time I've been to this location. I'm usually a regular at the one by mcarthur mall. The atmosphere is the best out of the 4 sushi kings I've been to. We received my food rather quickly each order and our waiter checked on us regularly. Just a typical sushi king experience. But I'll probably never go there unless I'm working over at Langley hospital. Only complaint I have is that the bathrooms were not cleaned at all. None of the toilets were flushed and toilet paper everywhere. read more

My daughter and I have ate here twice and she fell in love with the place. She didn't realize there was more to sushi then California rolls or fish on rice balls. Now she eats here with her friends at least once a month. I have also eaten at the Sushi King outside of Gate One outside of JEB Little Creek. So my experience is limited, but the one in Hampton I found to be a little better as the waitress' were more attentive to my needs and were prompt to inquire if I would like more. The cleanliness was not bad at all, the restroom as mentioned in previous post is not the spotless as I experienced it but it did need a bit of cleaning up. The one in Norfolk at times I would wait 5-10 minutes to place another order so I have learned to order a larger quantity and fill out my next request to give to the waitress. The one in Hampton I ordered roll by roll to keep it as fresh as possible. I am no expert on Sushi, but everything I have eaten off of the menu I have enjoyed and every time I have walked out of there I felt I needed to go buy a large pair of jeans. If you enjoy sushi and all you can eat I highly recommend this sushi bar. read more

Last night (10/1/22) My family and I went to dinner at the Hampton VA location. Our server Michael was the best by far server we have ever had between the Hampton and Newport News locations. Michael was so nice, professional, prompt, and even cared about what our needs were during our meal. This is the first time that we have ever had a server this helpful, professional, and pleasant. If you ever are in the area ask for Michael, as I know that we will be asking for him again when we return. Thank you so much!!! read more

I have eaten a ton of sushi throughout the United States and this is by far the most disgusting sushi I've ever eaten. First of all, I ordered handrolls and received regular rolls...but I digress. All of the food lacked flavor. The kani salad is just a bunch of imitation crab meat, no seasoning. The rolls fell apart as soon as I tried to pick them up. They hardly had any fish in them, it was mostly rice. Absolutely horrible. Also, what kind of sushi restaurant doesn't offer a sashimi appetizer? Do not order from here. I'm perfectly happy with paying more for better quality food rather than trying to save a few bucks to eat garbage. I can't believe this place stays in business. read more

Nice atmosphere and they bring the food out to you. Love the Love Roll it's so good with the right spicyiness. The Crazy Money Roll is sweet and made with fried bananas. I would recommend Sushi to friends and family. read more
