Best Sushi in Short Pump. Friendly staff, quick service, and fresh food! Can be busy on the weekend, but worth the wait!!!

I've been to a lot of places like these, but this one is on the top of my list. It is super clean and the service is fast. That is importantly since there is a time limit. We ordered from the all you can eat menu, so the pics will show the portions. Hibachi doesn't come with rice. You have to order it separately, but it's all included in the price. We ordered a lot of things off the menu and everything tasted great. We just ordered a little at a time to enjoy the food and search in the menu for more things to try. Overall, we were very impressed and there is plenty of parking. Check out my pics to see what we ate. read more

Had a great experience stopping in for Lunch. I found the lunch menu to have a large amount of variety for 18.99. Our server Nancy was extremely attentive and kind. The food came out promptly and everything was made to order. The other staff helped clear and we never had to stare at a stack of our sushi plates. The standout rolls for me were the Short Pump Roll and the Banana Roll. This place is still quite new and you can tell that they put time and effort into the design. The decor felt well thought out and was stunning. They even have some spirited away statues which was a fun Easter egg for anime lovers. Overall, this will definitely be an AYCE sushi place I return to. The quality was undeniable and I'm excited to try out their dinner next. read more

Stopped by this sushi spot for carryout during a snowstorm and was honestly blown away. For an all-you-can-eat sushi buffet, the quality was way better than expected. The sashimi was especially impressive super fresh and clean, not fishy at all. Everything was prepared well, even for takeout, which says a lot. This place completely exceeded my expectations and is now on my go-to list when I'm craving sushi. Great quality, solid portions, and proof that AYCE sushi can actually be really good. read more

Clean. Beautiful ambiance. Flavorful and fresh sushi. Huge parking lot. Wheelchai accessible. TVs to watch the game (if they feel like changing the channel.) I asked one time and they flatly said no. Staff is usually swift and polite. If you're choosing between Sushi King and this spot, Sushi Kingdom, both are good. This place looks, smells, and is cleaner. Not bashing Sushi King at all. If I'm ever on that side of town (West Broad Street) I WILL eat there. Sushi Kingdom is a bit pricier than Sushi King. Finally my favorite specialty rolls include the Hot Girl, Monster, Dynamite, and Godzilla. read more

I made a recently revisit and brought my wife for the first time. The experience that I had before didn't change. The lobby entrance was clean, peaceful Buddha sitting on top of clouds and simply amazing artwork on the walls, ceiling and displays throughout the restaurant. The freshness, accuracy and quality of each items was on point. From fried items, soup, salads, nigiri, sushi rolls and sashimi. The favorites are: salmon skin salad, eel nigiri, sweet mango roll (tastes like ice cream); Tokyo roll, salmon lover roll, masago, snow crab salad and variety of sashimi. But there were a few items didn't it that mark for me: house salad and avocado saladThey both are drowning with sauce with no hint of ginger and the avocado salad is the same as what you get on topped of sushi rolls with 8 thin slices. We had excellent service from our server May, she was very attentive, friendly, patient and knowledgeable. People always talk about hidden gems , well this establishment is one of them. It's a must place to visit, you won't be disappointed. read more

A lot to like at Sushi Kingdom! Ambiance: decorated in tasteful Asian accents. Seating is normally spaced and the layout provides some privacy. It is a bit loud with open, metal ceilings that echo noise. Service has been very good with prompt seating, table waiting and food delivery. Despite being all you can eat, wait staff continue to stay on the ball consistently throughout the meal. Can peak times this place is busy so you might try a time or night that is less so. Food is good! There are a variety of rolls, sushi, sashimi, teriyaki, hibachi and tempura options. While not the highest quality cuts (as you would expect), the food is fresh and also consistent in its quality and how it is prepared. Strong marks all around for ambiance, service and food. Less one star for the noise and average food quality but a very good dining experience overall, especially for an all you can eat restaurant. Recommend and be sure to bring a big appetite! read more

Ok, I will do my best not to compare to another "certain" sushi place located in Richmond but the resemblance is sorta uncanny but here's my take. Service - 8.8/10 the service was great but sometimes the food was cold, but I didn't mind it. Food - 8/10 the noodles were pretty tasty and the takoyaki is also good. (I forgot to take of picture of it.) I also ordered a Monster Roll and that is by far my personal favorites. But like I said before, tastes almost the same as Sushi King (or Saki Sushi depending on which part of Richmond you live in.) Interior - 9/10 The inside looked amazing and the bathrooms were bland but at least they were clean. Overall, I really liked the food and I would recommend this place. I'd give this place a 8.5/10. read more

I came with my daughters and ordered the all you can eat buffet. They ordered one shrimp tempura roll and one order of gyoza. I asked if I can just pay ala carte as they didn't eat much. They told me I made a verbal commitment to the buffet and would not alter the charges. Terrible customer service. read more

Great addition to Richmond for another AYCE sushi option. It is similar to Yoshi Sushi in Willow Lawn. They had hibachi, but I like that they offer the meat separate from the rice and veggies in case you just wanted to opt for meat only. Overall, we will be returning. read more

Food excellent, lots of choices. Ambience stellar Management/staff "Tyler" in particular Awesome hosting manager read more

The vibes and decor is immaculate! The service was quick, to bring out dishes and remove as well. Now to the good part: THE FOOD Ok the sushi was fresh and so good! The salmon was delicious! They have so many specialty rolls, with 8 pieces. They also have hibachi steaks and salmon, rice, noodles, everything is served in small portions so you can pace yourself, and try a lot of different dishes! The sides are really good too, surprisingly I enjoyed the salmon skin salad! The desserts are good too- I'd recommend getting the ice cream (comes in 3 scoops per bowl) with the fried Oreos! Definitely a go to sushi spot if you're in the area! It's located in short pump mall, next to the movie theater! read more

This place is gorgeous inside. We ordered sushi to take back to our room. Unfortunately it made us sickkkk. Omg. My daughter was vomiting and we had the bubble guts. Sorry if it's TMI, but I don't think I'd eat sushi here again. The staff was friendly and it's clean inside, but it was literally no one inside. Maybe business is slow and we were served old fish or something. They have all you can eat sushi, but we just ordered a few rolls to go. My daughter got the spider roll and the crab had to be related to Mr Krab from SpongeBob. It turned her off. My cream cheese and crab appetizer was undercooked and made my stomach take a dive off the deep end. Hopefully it was just a bad day,but since we both got sick I really think it was the food. read more

Sushi Kingdom is a nice all-you-can-eat addition to the area. Their menu is massive and we couldn't try everything we wanted in one go so we'll have to come back. They had some dishes I haven't seen at other AYCE sushi spots. The restaurant itself is decorated beautifully and clean. They have plenty of seating so we didn't have to wait. It's $24 for adults, $15 for kids (under 5ft), and free for kids age 1-2 (under 3ft). Sashimi is an extra 50 cents per piece. All the food was pretty good. They could be a little more consistent. We ordered crab rangoons a few times and most times the edges were too chewy to eat. They could also use more filling - that's the best part. The two sesame balls in the order weren't the same, one fried longer and smushed. The sushi rolls had a bit more rice than we'd prefer. We had to reorder one or two items again since they were forgotten the first time. Overall, it's worth visiting if you want AYCE sushi! Hopefully the minor kinks will work out with more time. read more

This place is amazing! We went for lunch and paid about $20 a person for unlimited sushi. Although the quality of fish is not top tier, you cannot beat their pricing. Everything was delicious! The lunch menu offers a solid variety, including nigiri. Although the menu notes a limit on nigiri orders, our server allowed us to order more. The interior is beautifully decorated with plenty of visual details to enjoy. My only minor complaint was the service. A few items were forgotten, which we either had to remind them about or ultimately decided to skip. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for its value. The quality of the fish is impressive for the price. read more

Came here for dinner and the ayce was $24pp. I got a variety of sushi (short pump, LSU, four season), sides, and hibachi. The hibachi combo lets you choose two types of meat and they will cook it. I got the shrimp and salmon and it was drenched in sauce. It might have been overcooked but all that sauce allowed it to still be decent. The side dish like the calamari and edamame were good. Out of the four rolls I had, none of them blew my mind. The sushi in general was about slightly above average. I did love the Tuna Tataki and Pepper tuna, however I was disappointed that they were limited to only two orders. Staff were friendly and good about cleaning plates once done. Overall a decent ayce sushi place with, appetizers , and hibachi. Food(50%): 6.5 Staff/service(25%): 7.0 Value(25%): 7.0 Overall: 6.8/10 read more

Very good AYCE sushi meal. I chose this for my birthday dinner and enjoyed it! The restaurant is pretty and nice and clean. Service was good. The waitress entered orders on an iPad on a strap around her neck, which was efficient. We ordered a lot and never waited long to order. I was super pleased with how quickly our items came out. The food was overall good. I enjoyed the sushi and particular for the format. The stars for me ironically were the non-sushi items. The sesame balls with black bean paste were so good and the fried Oreos were fun with the light tempura. Would definitely go back. Hope they keep up the good quality, service and cleanliness! read more

Came here for dinner one night with a party of 3. We love the remodeling Sushi Kingdom did. The ambiance is great. Love the decor. And the statue near the entrance embedded in fog is pretty cool. Great booths. Prompt service. As for the sushi... that's why this is a 2- or 3-star rating. The tuna tataki is good, but it only comes with 2 pieces (and each piece is about 1/3 the thickness I'd expect). There's a 2-limit order on this... so, even if you order it twice, you're having about 1/4 the serving size of a tuna tataki appetizer at a sushi restaurant that is not ayce. The miso soup is tasty and maybe just a touch on the salty side. The cucumber salad was ok. Skip the seaweed salad. My wife had a veggie roll that was ok. My daughter had a dynamite roll which was so-so. And I had a VCU roll which was disappointing; it's supposed to be eel and mango... but it was mango mango mango and the smallest bit of eel I've ever seen in any roll. I get it. If the restaurant is going to be ayce, then they have to fill ppl up on rice and skimp on the sushi. When I'm in the mood for sushi, I'd rather just go where we can order proper sushi and sashimi. That said, if you're a college student on a budget and want to feel like you've eaten sushi, then you can try Sushi Kingdom. read more

Fast becoming a tradition for our vegan family, this beautiful restaurant provides a large selection of vegan / veganizeable sushi options, more than enough to keep it interesting and delicious. Everything was made to order fresh and flavorful. My adult sons discovered Sushi Kingdom and have been fans independent of us for a few months. We were easy converts. The layout and decor with paper lanterns, lattice partitions and dark wood frames feel like something straight out of a Miyazaki movie, in fact there are even two No Face statues offering candies. Tasteful clay vases with single orchid blossoms and sleek faux marble platters provided a Japanese table setting aesthetic . Comfortable seating arrangements in many different combinations: chairs, booths, barstools, etc. Our waitress on this visit handled our large party effectively and was always willing to help Veganize menu items when possible. She was very sweet and good at checking on us regularly. We will continue to patronize this restaurant on special occasions and bring our friends and family along whenever we can. It's a fancy dining experience for us but well worth the price of $23.99 per person, with a discount for younger guests. Yes: vegan friendly YES: family friendly read more

Standard all you can eat sushi place. Not the best cuts and fish but still good. I can't help but to compare to other places and my only beef is the "hibachi ". Most hibachi and teriyaki come with veg and rice but their's doesn't. I ordered a vegetable hibachi and it was just a bowl of veg. It's not bad, but rice makes everything better. And most American hibachi comes with a white sauce and/or ginger sauce this didn't. Again, just a bowl of vegetables. The other things tasted fresh enough. We got a few rolls and vegetable tempura which came out hot. . My sons had udon and soba noodles. The soba tasted like ramen, the chicken kind in the orange package. I asked for hot water, ya know for digestion and it came in a regular cup. Which is ok. My younger son got kids menu chicken nuggets and stuff. LAAAAME! But don't tell him I said that. The services was great, the ladies were really attentive and quick. And the place is nice. The bathrooms were mostly clean but it wasn't as jazzed up as the rest of the place which is whatever because you know what goes down to the bathroom. We'll definitely come back to try again. read more

Decent food in a cute setting, but quality can be hit or miss. I've had meals here that ranged from a solid 4/5 to a disappointing 2.5/5. Worth trying if you're craving AYCE sushi, just go in with tempered expectations. read more

All you can eat sushi (lunch on a weekday) was $20 per person. Staff were very attentive. The spicy rolls are not too spicy. Fair selection of sushi rolls- mostly crab, shrimp, some tuna. Good selection of appetizers. Pretty much what you expect from an all you can eat sushi place read more

This place is great! For AYCE the quality is pretty decent, theres most definitely better quality sushi around, but not at the price point that Sushi Kingdom offers and especially not AYCE. We have been to this place at least 10 or more times and have only had one bad experience here with service. The inside is decorated so cutely you would have never guessed that it used to be a Buffalo Wild Wings other than the signs on the bathroom giving it away slightly. read more

The food is quite good but it's ridiculous that: 1. You can't take anything to go 2. Leftover food means you get charged $10 more read more

The food here was really pretty good. And the service was not bad. But the lady that explained to us how you either a la carte or all you can eat really did not explain it very well at all. Made me want to bang my head against their fake brick wall. To me if you've got to threaten somebody with extra $10.99 if you don't eat all you get you're in the wrong business. But hey if you like this kind of food and you're willing to suffer through that kind of crap. Enjoy. read more

The best items we tried today is teriyaki red snapper, hibachi chicken, special salmon sashimi, special salmon mango. The rolls taste so so. Las Vegas super star roll is good, But hot girl roll is not good. Shimp udon is too salty. You have to wait quite a few minutes for the roll dish. Actually we do not feel that we have many choices althrough it is all you can eat. They don't offer fruits. read more

My favorite all you can eat sushi place! They have so many options and it's great! I go with 2 my friends and we are quite the regulars. It's $23.99 I believe for all you can eat and that's with appetizers, sushi rolls, hibachi and dessert included in the all you can eat. If you get soda it can be kinda pricey. The service is great and there's usually quite a few people there who are eating just as much as you. So no judging! It seems like great quality I love the LSU roll! The crab ragoon's are FANTASTIC read more

Still my favorite sushi restaurant. The price is super reasonable for the amount of food you get to eat, and the food is amazing... best value in town. Love the new menu additions, shows the owners/chef care about keeping things interesting. The atmosphere is always nice and peaceful. We bring our young kids with us and they always eat great here and they are the pickiest eaters anywhere else, super grateful for that aspect :) read more

I love a good sushi buffet, and this is one of them!! The interior is lovely, modern, & inviting. They have a huge inclusive buffet menu. Fried sushi is always a niche go to for me, & i appreciate that they have more than one option for it. Along with fried food they also have fried Oreos which is a perfect way to top off a filling meal. read more

Service was very good. Attentive. I've had buffets that the sushi was just ok but here, the sushi was WOOOOW. I will definitely be back!!!

Let em start my saying im a huge fan of all you can eat sushi . This place is average , nothing to write home about . I would not recommend the spicy edamame unless you just want to eat spoon fulls of garlic with your edamame . The tuna bomb was great , this is not something I've seen at the other local sushi places . The shrimp tempura came out less than cooked I would say it could have spent at least one more minute in the deep fried . The tempura color was not there and it was not crispy . The signature rolls were decent , my favorite was the Hot Girl Roll . read more

Great all you can eat sushi experience - lots of variety and the speciality rolls are pretty good. Will definitely go back. read more

We went to eat sushi today. I have never in my life of living in 16 states have ever dealt with a more rude waitress in my life. She was in her 20's heavy set with glasses not sure of her name. My wife doesn't eat sushi, so we asked about other items in the menu. I ordered the ayce and This waitress was so condescending and accusatory. Like my wife was trying to eat for free or something. Stay away from this place. read more

Decent ayce sushi spot. Kitchen entree hibachi and teriyaki options were better than I expected. Soba noodles and fried rice were good. Steak was surprisingly tasty and tender. Variety of options for chef's special rolls and classic rolls. There are choices for everyone or those who don't like raw fish. I did not enjoy the cream cheese in my rolls. It was very overpowering. Calamari was rubbery. Restaurant has lots of seating. Great atmosphere. Attentive service. read more
