Amazing sushi and I live tha it had all you can eat and you can eat whatever you want

Very good for AYCE. The salmon nigiri was especially good. The summer roll was okay. The Angel Hair roll was good. The sashimi salad was okay, the vinegar dressing wasn't the best. The crab meat salad was good. read more

We stopped by Sushi Man for lunch so my son could try the all-you-can-eat sushi. At $25 for lunch, it felt like a solid value, especially since it includes the full menu. Ordering from the tablet was easy, and everything came out fresh and made to order. The 10-minute wait between orders keeps things moving at a good pace, and the $1 charge for uneaten items is fair--but it does make you think twice about trying something you're unsure about. My wife and I didn't do the all-you-can-eat. I had the tuna poke bowl, which was good but pretty average--there are a few better poke options in Champaign. Overall, the restaurant was very clean, well staffed, and ran efficiently. It was a great experience, especially for anyone wanting to do all-you-can-eat sushi. read more

I've been here many times since my first, and this place doesn't disappoint. I'm not a big connoisseur of sushi and don't prefer more 'fishy' flavors, but from what I've had at Sushi Man, I love their food and their rolls, and their fish (or at least their salmon, which I've had a lot of) is high quality. Service is pretty slow on weekends, but on weekdays it's a lot quicker, so on those packed days I'd recommend putting all of what you want into one order, since it will take a while to come out. The ambience is usually really nice and calm, but on weekends it does get pretty loud. I love this place so much. If you ever go, then you need to try one of their shrimp tempura rolls (my #1 on their menu). Their entrees are also pretty good. I love, love, LOVE their sweet tea, but everyone else I've went with has hated it, so take that with a grain of salt. Go ASAP! This place is awesome. read more

First time going & won't be the last! LOVED IT. The whole experience, everything about it was lovely. We had AYCE & I also had the salmon poke bowl. The sauce on bowl is sweet & the soy sauce was more mild, not quite so salty. Our server was Hari & he was very attentive & kind. Ordering on a tablet was a fun new experience & the inside of the restaurant was very clean & welcoming. read more

Always get takeout and the food is delicious! Their Takoyaki is expensive at $9.5 but really good; tuna roll, Godzilla, gyoza are all so good as well. Highly recommend this place. Makes me want to dine in and try the AYCE option. read more

Fun environment and great food. We had a mix of entrees and sushi. 1 person at our table enjoyed the AYCE and stuffed himself with a wide variety. Each time he ordered it was 6 pieces, in the end we think he had 34 pieces! You gotta really come hungry! We had an order of Avocado Salad, Edamame, Chicken Katsu, Chicken Teriyaki, Tiger Roll, Salmon Lover combo and Strawberry and Mango Mochi Ice Cream. read more

I love their unlimited sushi it's so worth it go during lunch because it's 25 per person they recently had a health regulation though so I'd be careful with some of their fish because I had one of them and tasted old but the salmon and rolls are pretty safe read more

Their menu has no listings of what's in the Sushi so I called to ask where to find out what's in the Sushi so I could place an online order. I was told they would have to call me back so they could look at their website to see what's in the order. Very concerning. read more

So we took our son here when we visited him at college. He's always on the lookout for all you can eat sushi and it's hard finding a good place for it. Especially finding good all you can eat sushi if the sushi is fresh. It's located in a strip mall and is an interesting decor. We were seated pretty quickly, but after scanning the restaurant, we realized how packed the place was. The waiter came by once and took our initial orders and then pointed us to the ordering device on the table. We could order as much as we like, but had to finish everything. Whatever wasn't finished was added to the bill and you could take with you (despite signs saying you couldn't). The food was good, but the service was meh. Regardless, it was a decent price for all you can eat and is as packed as other sushi restaurants in the area, so we'll be back. read more

Ambiance: The interior is well decorated and the booths provide a lot of privacy. Service: The staff work quick and regularly come to take empty plates, refill water, and take more orders. Food: I got the all you can eat option which includes a variety of food from kitchen appetizers to sushi. For kitchen items I got the calamari, fried oysters, mussels, and sashimi salad which all came quickly. Never ran into an issue where an item we ordered did not show up. Everything that was supposed to be hot came hot and the sushi itself was very fresh. No fishy taste in any of the raw fish. Only complaint is there is a bit too much rice for each sushi. Overall, this is my favorite AYCE sushi spot in Champaign whenever I'm craving sushi. read more

I think this is the best all you can eat sushi in the CU area -- the raw fish tastes better than most sushi places in this area! The sushi pieces are pretty big, with lots of rice, so you'll fill up faster than you think. Honestly some of the apps are worth taking up stomach space (takoyaki + sashimi)! I don't recommend the tempura combo to take up space. They have accommodated for large groups (greater than 10). Restaurant is clean. Food comes out a lot slower than the other AYCE sushi places, so if you are wanting to order more, try to order a little bit before you finish the current place. Not everyone has to get AYCE -- half of our group just ordered a entrees for themselves. read more

Sushi Man - All you can eat sushi! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

AYCE sushi places usually have some combination of restrictions... whether it's rounds of ordering, or $ penalties for leftovers, or dish limits, or time limits. Sushi Man has the leftover penalty and the time limit (90 minutes). Sometimes that can be a little stressful if you don't plan ahead! I don't think they enforced the time limit for us that day, but it wasn't all that crowded. It has the traditional sushi, makis, and some crazy rolls. I know it's not efficient, but I like to get the sides as well. Depending on the scope of the kitchen dish, a little robot comes out and delivers the food to the table. The look of the Sushi Man is bright and woodsy and modern-ish. The pricing isn't cheap, but it's in line with AYCE sushi spots. The service is quick and friendly and pretty responsive. I wanted to give this a higher rating, but the flavors of both the sushi and the kitchen foods are all kind of... muted. I was hoping it would pop a little more, but perhaps I'm expecting too much for AYCE. read more

The phoenix roll is the best roll we tried. It had a nice mix of hot and cold in each bite. The other rolls we tried were good--I felt they could have used more differentiating flavors, but that was likely because we purposely ordered non-spicy options since we had our kids with us. I would have loved to try ALL the rolls--but there were so many options it would've been impossible with just 5 people sharing. We all got the all-you-can-eat option, which it seems is necessary if you're going to be sharing. This makes a lot of sense, though, because the all-you-can-eat is open to anything on the menu! Sushi rolls, hot dishes, bowl of noodles, dessert--it's all included. Drinks are the only thing that costs extra (just get a water and save your calories for the rest of the menu!). There is a 90-minute time limit, but that was not an issue at all since the service was so quick. Also, there's a robot(!!!) that brings the hot food to you. It plays a little song to let you know it's coming. Definitely adds to the unique experience. read more

All you can eat sushi for 90 minutes. Any leftover pieces are $1. No restrictions on the menu-- order away! Ample seating and parking is easy as it shares a lot with Target . Atmosphere is more like a Cajun crab shack but makes sense since it a former seafood place. Service is friendly. Lunch is 24.95 and dinner is 29.95. Drinks are separate. Everyone has to order ayce at the table if you want to do ayce and there is a reduced charge for kids 10 and under. You can also dine in a la carte. There are a few extra menu items at this location compared to the green st one. Wait for first round of ayce wasn't bad for a 6p Friday night seating and the place is spacious enough that it's very friendly for persons needing disability accommodations. However, it got busier soon after and our second order took a while (~25-30mins). To be fair, it was graduation weekend and Mother's Day weekend so maybe this isn't the norm. The waiter also apologize for the delay and said best time to come was lunch on weekdays for the fastest service. Sushi rolls are good. Nigiri is freshly made and the rice is still warm which reminded me (ever so slightly) of Sugarfish in SoCal. While the raw fish is definitely fresh, it's not the freshest so don't come expecting the highest of caliber. Meal was enjoyable and it's very good for the price. Deep fried rolls give some variety too. Good options for vegetarian sushi as well. read more

Sushi Man - All you can eat sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

Coming from CA where I have eaten some of the freshest sushi....this place offers the same quality...far from the ocean. I went to dinner and got the AYCE and boy was I surprised. I've never seen the variety they offer anywhere. UsuUsually it's a handful of typical rolls and a couple special ones. They had way more than the "norm" and even had entree items. Completely blown away. I ate so much, I fell asleep at home at 830 read more

I've been trying to find good sushi in Champaign, so have been making the rounds. Today I went to sushi man for lunch and discovered that this was not the spot for me. We were one of the four tables that was in use during lunch time, and our sushi took over 40 minutes to prepare (we ordered 4 rolls, 2 classic and 2 specialty). When the sushi eventually did come, it looked beautiful... but didn't seem to be very good quality. Some of the avocado did not taste fresh, and the classic rolls (spicy salmon and spicy crab) were a strange consistency. None of the rolls were very enjoyable, unfortunately. The servers were very friendly and the place was decorated nicely, we sat in a booth that felt private and that was nice! Unfortunately, the ambiance could not make up for what was otherwise a low quality experience. read more

Excellent food. Great selection. Fast,friendly service. Great atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

I was excited to hear that there would be a new AYCE sushi spot in Champaign. The inside looks nice, and the workers were very accommodating too, even having a little robot that brings dishes to tables. While I understand that AYCE sushi spots won't have the best quality of sushi, I was disappointed to see how much rice they put for each piece of nigiri. It was so packed with rice that I couldn't even taste the fish. The only plus side of my meal was that the rolls weren't too bad, and they actually have some decent appetizers (good miso soup and sashimi salad; takoyaki undercooked, fried shrimp shumai meh). If they are going to charge $25 for a lunch of copious amounts of rice, and $30 for dinner, I will probably not be going back. read more

The food are salty and they put too much rice for all sushi! If you have a little bit rice leftover they will charge you $20 for leftover even though it said $1 for each serve. Also the service is the worst one I have ever seen, the time limit is 90 minutes, and they won't serve anything after 30 minutes! I can't find any sushi place worse than that! read more

Delighted with the variety and quality of the sushi and rolls! Our server was friendly and very helpful and the service was prompt! Our faves were the ninja, Sal-fornia, angel hair, dancing tuna and sweet potato rolls! read more

I was not so hungry at that moment so I just ordered a plate of Sushi (is it called the "Sushi Man" on the menu? I'm sorry that I don't remember‍). The sushi is made of salmon, asparagus, avocado and some other things, which tasted really soft and delicious especially with soy sauce and wasabi! read more

We love Sushi Man. Sharing the AYCE menu is great for a small family or going out with friends. The pricing for lunch and dinner is fair, and the rolls are as good as (or better than) the other sushi options in town. I highly recommend! read more

Sushi Man - Super fresh fish. Delicious. Great service, love their crab salad. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

Service was terribly slow. It's lunch time, ffs. Hire more staff or close for lunch. Food was pretty fishy and some rolls didn't taste fresh at all. How can you have 5 people in front of house with 3 tables and still take over an hour to serve our mains? 90 mins for AYCE? Not doing anyone any good if you spend 45-60 mins for one round to come out. Never coming back. read more

My favorite sushi place! I haven't had one item that I don't like. We always do the all you can eat so we can try new things. Great deal for the price, and again everything on the menu is good. I also love the interior inside, it's a nice place to eat. I definitely recommend! read more

Easy, almost too easy, to order a ton of delicious sushi! We loved the California rolls, the eel, the yellowtail, everything actually. The tea and miso soup hit the spot. And the green tea ice cream and mochi was a sweet finisher. Plus the staff are welcoming and attentive. read more

Food: loved the Phoenix roll! Everything else was standard, delicious sushi Service: very kind and attentive staff Ambiance: great vibes inside! There are a lot of booths available (I'm a sucker for a booth), and there's a beautiful, big mural on the back wall. Tip: go at lunch time on weekdays to get a $5 discount on the all you can eat sushi option. On weekends, they charge a flat rate for lunch and dinner all you can eat specials. read more

we called for a reservation at 7, and then changed it a moment later to 8. We were told "come in at any time you like, it is not a busy day". we decide to come at 8:30 and we were turned away as there was not enough time for service. When we pressed for how this was possible given what we were told, the hosts admitted that they did not write down our reservation time as changed, or call to check if we still intended to come before filling our table. Disappointed! read more

Absolutely the best sushi in chambana . Service is awesome. Always friendly, I will be back

If you want absolutely FRESH and promptly prepared Sushi, or even other entrées (delivered to your table by a fully automated Cat-Bot!), this place is what you're looking for!!! The "all you can eat" option is well worth the money, especially if you are extremely hungry...or are looking to beat your personal eating best!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!! read more

Some menus are good some are not Sushi man roll - Best!! 5Stars Most rolls - Was ok. Not the best. Mostly 3-4 stars Sashimi (Which is actually a Nigiri) - do not try any of their Sashimi(Nigiri). They don't even use the correct term for their Nigiri. Think about that.. Too much rice. Sashimi tastes like facotry frozen sahimi. 1 star Epitizers- Most of them were actually pretty good. Calamari Fry was really good. Sahimi bowl is kind of over seasoned but deliciious Udon - Fills you up and was kind of bland. 2star. Service - Really good. Servers are prompt and gently glancing at you to help you when needed read more

Horrible quality of sushi and distribution. They over stack the rice and give you extremely small or thin pieces of sushi. Service was okay and the restaurant is nice overall but I would not recommend unless you're expecting very mediocre sushi. read more

Sushi Man - Salmon Roe(Sushi Only), Salmon Nigiri - Sushi Bars Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

Good sushi, good selection of items. Would be 5 stars if the ayce price were $15/$20 for lunch/dinner.

This Sushi Man location exceeded our expectations. It was nicely decorated in a quaint Japanese simple wooden style, ambiance is important. Everything on the menu was part of the all-you-can eat price. While admittedly the price matches about all I can eat, its nice to be able to pick from anything and everything. The sushi was amazingly good, the portions were humongous, and it was amazing how quickly it was prepared and served. We eat a lot of sushi and for the price, this was a very good value. My family really enjoyed the food and the service, we'll be back. read more
