House Fried Rice 招牌炒饭 (With chicken)
Baylee G.

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.

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.

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.

Unlimited

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

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.

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.

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.

Mochi Ice Cream

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.

All you can eat sushi

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.

Wasabi packets? Spiciest I've ever had lol

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

Godzilla roll.

All you can eat is a little expensive but there's no catch. You just keep ordering and they keep bringing you the most delicious sushi you can imagine. Very friendly and patient staff. Will definitely be coming back.

Takoyaki
Andrew C.

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.

Ko Fusion - Enjoyed a Beef Bibimbap (Korean Rice Bowl). The rice was nice and crispy!

This is our favorite sushi place in Central IL! The sushi rolls are fantastic, Korean wings and…read moreseafood cheese roll were great appetizers too!

The vibes are nice, the interior is inviting and the idea of having a lot of different Asian…read morecuisines seems like a positive. However, the quality of food here does not seem to justify the price point set at Ko Fusion. The menu reflects the fusion aspect of the restaurant. Ko Fusion offers an entire Japanese sushi menu, along with various stir fries, curries, ramen and even Korean BBQ on certain nights. From the multiple visits I have had here, I would not say that they stand at the top in any cuisine, the food is relatively average. First things first, paying over $20 for a single sushi roll is one of my least favorite dining experiences out there. With restaurants charging a little more for an all you can eat experience or even doing buy one get one deals, the sushi roll has to be really, really good to make it worth it. I did not feel that way here at Ko Fusion. In fact, I felt that Flaming Phoenix Roll was good at best and when I finished, I was still starving. I do think there is an effort to import quality ingredients and do a nice job with presentation, but I was definitely not satisfied. On my next visit, I wanted to order a dish as it would hopefully fill me up more. I ordered their Bul Go Kee and at $32 dollars, I was really was hoping it would be a standout dish. The food was alright, but again, could not justify the price point set for the dish. Not only that, I am looking back on the menu and realize that I never got the lettuce wrap portion of the meal. The beef itself had some decent flavor and was tender, so it at least wasn't a bad dish. I just was left feeling like I did not get my money's worth. Would I recommend this place for nicer occasions? I guess so. However, I would go so far to make this your go-to Japanese or Korean spot, places that specialize in those cuisines would likely give you a better bang for your buck.
