Wait staff was very accommodating I found the typical Rose which I usually go to first to see how they do them because.. how you do anything is how you do everything. I found them in the fish feeling very dry, small portion, and the ginger tasting of chemicals. Wasabi was very good. For me, I've been eating sushi for over 30 years.. I disappointing experience. The rolls are not moist, making me think that they made them in advance and then let them sit. When I asked to talk to the manager, I was told I could talk to him on the way out. They could do much better. read more

I wasn't sure about an all you can eat place! However, this place has changed my mind! You decide if you want to order al a carte or all you can eat! If you choose all you can eat, you get to pick anything off the menu! With the all you can eat the portions are smaller allowing you to try more things! We tried 3 appetizers, 2 full sushi rolls, 2 noodle dishes and finished with the tempura Oreo (which was my least favorite but my husband liked it)! The food was excellent as well as our server, friendly, attentive and efficient! We definitely will be back read more

Sushi quality is pretty decent especially for the area. But the rice to fish ratio is very high especially with the Nigiri pieces. Each roll is mainly rice which makes it hard to enjoy and try different rolls. Our server mentioned that if we failed to finish all of the rice we would be charged, which is understandable if it's a normal amount but this was insane. The service is great, pretty friendly, and overall wants the best experience for the customers. Vibes are good inside as well. read more

Where do I begin! Just walking into this place was great, it was dim, warm lighting with comfortable seating and you are able to see the workers make sushi right in front of you at the bar! My server was very attentive and patient to all of my food requests and gave me a fantastic sushi roll recommendation. Not to mention their crab rangoons were the best I've ever had, I will definitely be coming back just for those! Overall it was a beautiful and delicious experience. I definitely recommend! read more

Server was great, food was great and they were even accommodating of my gluten allergy - changed gloves, cleaned cooking utensils and pans (hence 3 stars) all except my salmon roll which was oddly lacking in comparison to everything else. I tried to send it back but the manager refused. read more

Did lunch all you can eat buffet. Food is fantastic. Sushi is good. Hibachi beef is amazing. Service is fast and friendly. Everything look clean. Have to pay extra for drinks (except water). Overall good experience. Went there three times so far and planing on going back again soon. Been doing lunch because it is 10 dollars cheaper than dinner per person. Idk if dinner buffet has more options since haven't been there for dinner yet. read more

I dined at Sushi Wa with a group of five, and overall it was a great experience. One thing to note is their rule that if one person at the table orders all-you-can-eat, then everyone has to. I actually understand this and think it's a smart way to prevent abuse of the system. The restaurant was clean, and we were seated and attended to within seconds of arriving, which was really nice. The service felt prompt and attentive the whole time. All of the food was made to order and tasted fresh. We tried a variety of dishes, and everything we had was very good. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I'm definitely looking forward to going back. read more

i've returned to this restaurant six more times in the past two months and I'm still trying new things each time I go! I usually have James as my waiter and he is excellent! I was never rushed and always left full and happy! I will continue to return because it is the best sushi restaurant so far in town as well as having incredible udon noodles, teriyaki, and hibachi! read more

This place is has some of the better sushi I have tasted in upstate new york. They have a great variety of rolls + their sushi and apps are good too. The food comes out fast and the AYCE is a great deal if you have a big stomach! My boyfriend and I drive an hour to go here but it's worth it read more

Amazing AYCE sushi/habachi/rolls and appetizers! The price is a great value for the menu variation you are able to order from. Service is very attentive and fish quality is best I personally have had in the area! Only sushi restaurant I look forward to going to. read more

Pretty good! Went with friends and everyone enjoyed it. All you can eat is very affordable if you eat a lot. Go when you're hungry to get your monies worth. read more

I went for lunch. I ordered several rolls( spicy salmon, spicy tuna, regular tuna, a "crispy" roll and some shumai. the entire order took less than 10 minutes to arrive at my table which I found quite disconcerting. at first look the rolls looked fine. the shumai was good....as good as a frozen dumpling can be. The rolls in general were fantastically MEH! the rice was a little weird. it was firm, not undercooked but not as soft as it should have been and really didn't have that sushi rice flavor. the spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls , well they were just average veggie rolls covered in literal fish paste that lacked any real spice. the texture of the fish was more like mashed potato, the crispy roll could have been good, if I had been able to taste it. It was covered in so much sauce that any flavor it had was loooong gone. Overall i thought the flavors were kind of dull and very much 1 note across the board, and the texture of the fish "paste" was just pure mush and not pleasant. The spicy salmon roll was so pasty that when i bit into it the fish literally squeezed out like tooth paste. Also. I felt the nori was not properly hydrated as i found it very tough when chewing and a little dry . Overall i would give 5/10 stars as I want to comeback and try the actual sushi/ sashimi . i would also try some other rolls to see if those are any better . finally, the last issue I had was the menu. The floors were dark wood, the tables were dark wood and the menu was black with white writing. In the dimly lit dining area, i had to use my penlight so I could actually read the menu. I am only 43 ! For just opening , i guess Sushi WA is going to have some growing pains. They are more of a local chain so i dont know if this is having an affect . final note, for a sushi branded restaurant I felt that the actual sushi menu was quite small. it had red snapper , salmon , tuna, shrimp and a few non fish things like tomago. but nothing else that I could see. I dont know if they had a suhi specific menu. If they do it was not offered but t he limited sushi menu was listed on menu in my hand. read more

Went here a couple days ago with my mom for mother and son lunch and if I had one word it was 1000% magnificent the food was top notch and I really love Asian food and you can tell this is athletic Chinese cuisine abt the only wired thing is I was gonna order the all you can eat and my mom wasn't and we were on separate checks but she had to order it as well even though she was on her own check and something I do agree with if u do the all u can eat but don't finish all your food they charge extra witch is fair to me so they get the money back for the wasted food so good job sushi wa!!!!!!!! That is actually a really smart policy!!!! Other than that as an Asian food Lover I would 1000% come back here to blow my money again!!!!! So yummmy and good sushi!!!!! And our water was so dedicated to me n my mother and came by every 5 minutes to make sure we liked everything and we were having fun so shoutout to him!!! I will definitely be back!!!!!!!! read more

yes, I did very much. Enjoy the food. The restaurant was very clean and felt very fancy. However, I did not appreciate getting absolutely scammed upon arriving at the restaurant. The man who I was assuming is the owner informed my group of five that in order to do the all you can eat buffet you must agree amongst the group that everybody will be doing it. I was originally very upset because I had to come assuming that it was exclusively and all you can eat buffet and the rest of the people in my party did not want to do it so I was upset that I couldn't do it. I asked our waitress if I could sit separately with a friend in order to do that all you can eat buffet. She told me I could not so I ordered as you normally would since none of us wanted to get that all you can eat buffet. The portions were extremely small so after I finished eating one entrée, I would order another finally our checks come and we all start to notice our checks are the same price which is really confusing because some of us ate more than others and one of my friends only got a California roll that costed five dollars and his check was $35 so one of the other people in my party asks about it and the waitress tells us that we ask for the all you could eat sushi buffet and we should've told her we didn't Want it, but why would we tell her what we didn't want ? none of us had ever stated that we wanted to do the sushi buffet, That's like if I Went to Olive Garden and ate the Mints that they provide and got charged for it. Although my friend got out of paying the $35 the rest of us still had to because the waitress was fully convinced that we had requested the all you can eat sushi buffet. So we decided to call them afterwards to discuss the issue, and the owner was incredibly rude to us and was yelling over the phone in his mother language. do not come here. read more
