    All you can eat sushi
    Ricarta C.

    We Stopped in for lunch before hitting the mall. Service was good and the sushi even better. All you can eat sushi is music to my belly lol ! We ordered the assorted sushi roll platter which was 10/10! I love coming here after my first visit last year so I'm planning a birthday dinner for my sister here later this month since she introduced me to this amazing place. I can't wait to sit out by the pool later and eat my leftovers under the stars. If you are in Orlando, this a must !

    So it has been awhile since I have been here. Came in for lunch since its cheaper for AYCE - $22 per person. Drinks are extra. Ordered NIGIRI of Salmon, Smoked Salmon, Eel, Hamachi. Also sides of Vegetable tempura which consists of an onion, broccoli, zucchini and carrot or sweet potato? Also had a serving of Edamame and Avocado Nigiri. I lean towards the Salmon, Hamachi and Eel more when I get the Nigiri but the smoked salmon adds umph after eating so much raw fish. Green Tea is bag tea here. It's like $1.50 with free hot water refiils. Sweet Tea is good here with free refills the drink is $3.95 I think. The Edamame is typical steamed edamame - Its a good palate cleanser for me in between sushi eats. The Vegetable tempura is not bad but for the batter its a light beer batter type batter in which I am ok with if its coated light. I favor the king mushroom tempura because I just love mushrooms. They are very skimpy on tempura sauce though so you need to request more of the tempura sauce. The Avocado nigiri - I order because its a good one to keep it light after eating so much raw fish. The creaminess of the avocado is a good touch to clear the palate. The ice creams here - I favor the strawberry because you see chunks of real strawberries in the ice cream. Then the green tea but for me the green tea is not the authentic green tea ice cream - theres no taste of bitterness or floral leaves notes in it. It tasted more vanilla with green coloring imo. So this day - They had issues with so much rice leftover in the tray and that they were going to charge dinner price because of it - They were not so strict before with rice leftover but today they did. I stood in stand regarding them up charging and they said next time I am aware of the rice leftover policy. This place gets busy especially lunch. Just be mindful.

    This place is a 10/10 every single time. Service is incredible, everything is fresh and there are so many options every will leave satisfied. They have big open tables so you're comfortable ordering plenty of food. We always start with the raw options and work our way up so we don't get full too fast and can keep trying new things! They even have hibachi options for those family members who don't love raw fish. The price is hard to beat! Must try Orlando staple.

    Great Japanese restaurant. We really enjoyed the food here. Everything was delicious and fresh. The customer service was also great. We didn't like the fact that we arrived about 10 min before the buffet was closing and we were still offered a buffet. Like there is no time! They also told us if we can't finish the food we order (not take but order, so we can't even see how it looks and can't taste first), they weight and we will be charged for that. Thats why we decided to order from the menu. Prices looked good enough. We would definitely come back again and try more dishes from the menu.

    Food was ok, we had a party of seven and the first thing they told us when we sat down was that everybody gets all you can eat or nobody can get all you can eat well we didn't even know that was an option so we decided to go à la cart. They then told us we had to share menus because they didn't have enough à la carte menus because they typically only do all you can eat, especially on the weekends that was just kind of odd way to start us off. We were the first group in when they opened and they didn't have enough menus for the table. Two people from my party ordered the New York strip steak and they did not ask them what temperature they wanted it has they say it only comes out one way. The food was decent the Customer Service was lacking. Lots of parking was the most positive thing about the experience..

    If you're looking for a great all-you-can-eat sushi spot, this place is definitely worth checking out. For $23, everything on the menu is included, which is an incredible value considering the quality and variety. The service was fantastic. Our waiter took the time to explain how the menu worked, what was included, and even how they handle excessive leftovers. We didn't end up having any leftovers, but I appreciated him being upfront about it. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the salad, but that was 100% a personal preference and not a reflection on the restaurant. In fact, when I mentioned I didn't care for it, the waiter didn't charge me for it, which was a nice touch. I meant to take pictures of all the rolls, but honestly, we were hungry and they disappeared too fast. Every roll we tried was really good. Highly recommend. Great food, great service, and a great value.

    We were a party of 7 on a Saturday evening and waited about 20 minutes to be seated. Such a good deal for the $34.99 AYCE which includes sushi rolls, sashimi, tempuras, soup, salad and dessert. The mango salmon tartare was the bomb! Mango with salmon combination was very refreshing. Our waiter Jason was very attentive and kind. Two hour limit for AYCE. Highly recommend. Great food, service and value!

    AYCE sushi was pretty good for our first time here. Our waiter was super efficient and quick putting orders in, food came out fairly quickly. Everything was fresh. The seared salmon could have been seared a little more, I like to see the char at the top but the salmon was smooth and silky. Good flavor. The rolls I got were pretty good, very filling because I forgot it had sweet potato in it lol. The other roll had way too much spicy tuna on top in my opinion but was still good. The shumai was probably my favorite and I got sweet potato tempura which is my favorite as well. I'm actually happy they didn't have so much rice in the rolls too. Overall it was a 8/10 experience and I'd prob come back

    Who doesn't love a good all you can eat. This place delivers a table service all you can eat that is both delicious and reasonable. Love the all you can eat without the buffet line and sitting food. The staff here is super nice. They don't rush you at all and even encourage you to eat more and try things. The restaurant is clean and well lit and the decor is worthy of the touristy side of town where it is. My wife tried their cucumber refresher and it was so good we might do more drinks next time. 10/10 love thos place and please save room for dessert! The fried cheesecake is awesome!

    First time trying all-you-can-eat sushi in Orlando and it definitely exceeded my expectations! We came here to celebrate newlyweds and my aunt's birthday, and it turned out to be such a fun and memorable experience. The service was attentive throughout the meal, and the ambiance was modern, lively, and perfect for celebrations. I was honestly really surprised by the quality of the fish for an AYCE sushi spot. Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented. My favorites were definitely the scallops, salmon, and ebi shrimp -- all were fresh, flavorful, and nicely prepared. The presentation of each dish made the experience feel more upscale than your typical all-you-can-eat restaurant. Overall, we had a great dining experience and would absolutely come back again whenever we're in Orlando. Perfect spot for groups, celebrations, or sushi lovers looking for good quality AYCE.

    Visiting some family in Orlando area, so we decided to eat here with them. It's about $35 per person for the dinner price but it's all you can eat. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and brightly lit. We were seated immediately. Be aware that you will not be seated until your entire party is present, so be sure to plan accordingly. Although it is all you can eat, you place the order of what you want and they bring it to your table. This guarantees that your food is hot, fresh, and ready every time. I love this part. Some items to take longer to prepare than others, so try to be patient. The day we went was a busy one so it definitely took awhile to get some of the food items but everything was delicious, which made up for any waiting we had to do!

    We stopped to get Sushi and I was blown away. The restaurant is nice inside. There are TVs around the bar that are easy to see from the booths. The service was great. The waiter explained the menu and preferred items. We ordered Super Rainbow Sushi. The size of the portion was really good. I enjoyed every bite. I definitely will comeback for more.

    John M.

    Sushi Yama is definitely a solid option if you are craving sushi on this side of town. The service is friendly and professional, the ambiance is pleasant and the sushi is definitely enjoyable. Orlando does not have a lot of all you can eats sushi places, so this place is definitely a welcome addition to the Orlando culinary scene. I came here with a client and overall, we both enjoyed the complete experience. If you are in the area, give them a try. I am confident that you will find it a great experience.

    Is the AYCE only for sushi or can we also order fried rice or chicken hibachi?

    They also have fried rice, or noodles! If you see in my review I ordered the noodles and u pick the protein 😀 all included..small portions but u can order more if needed. The noodles were very delicious

    What do they charge per person at dinner?

    They charge $34.99 which includes all you can eat sushi rolls, sashimi, specialty rolls, hibachi, tempuras, soups salad and more. Beverages are not included in the price it is separate and about $4.

    What time does their lunch AYCE end? Edit: I found the answer, it is open to 3:30pm for anyone…

    I never went there for lunch. They have lunch specials, but that's from 11 to 3 and it's not all you can eat.

    Do they take reservations?

    No. Its first come first serve

Wish they had a restaurant just like this back home as they hit the spot and did more that just check the boxes on my scorecard. Would return if I was ever back in town in the future.

Most of the rolls I ordered weren't filled with any fish(all California rolls dressed up as pricy rolls) just had slight fish on top and I had to specifically ask for the "classic sushi menu" as it was not offered.

    5/5 Stars -- Outstanding late-night dinner!…read more Susuru delivered another incredible experience on our second visit! We came in for a late dinner around 9:00 PM and were pleasantly surprised--the initial 30-minute estimated wait turned into getting seated in just 10 to 15 minutes. Service was top-notch from start to finish, and the food was simply delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection with so much depth and flavor in every single bite. We kicked off the meal with an appetizer spread of Chicken Karaage, Truffle Sesame Tuna, and Tempura Fried King Oyster Mushrooms--all executed wonderfully. For my main, I went with the Susuru Chashu Gohan mini bowl along with the Short Ribs and Skirt Steak. For me, it was the absolute ideal balance of protein and carbs, and every piece of meat was insanely flavorful. You cannot leave without dessert: the Matcha Tiramisu. Wow. Rich, decadent, and genuinely one of the best and most unique tiramisus I've ever tasted. Make sure you leave room to end your meal with it! The rest of my family loved their meals just as much. We first came here a few years ago and knew we had to make it back on this trip. Susuru remains a MUST-visit in Orlando!

Judging by the line that had already formed 15 minutes before they even unlocked the doors, I wasn't the only one with that idea. The moment you walk in, it feels like you've stumbled into a tiny neighborhood izakaya in Tokyo. Paper lanterns, Japanese signs covering the walls, colorful vintage décor, wooden stools that politely remind you to finish eating instead of lingering for three hours--it all adds to the charm. It's casual, lively, and full of personality. The menu has plenty to explore, but I came for the yakitori. Since everything is ordered à la carte, I built my own assortment of skewers, and every single one was grilled beautifully over charcoal. The meats were juicy, the vegetables had that perfect smoky char, and the chimichurri-style dipping sauce they served alongside was something I found myself dipping absolutely everything into. Yes, ordering several skewers can add up faster than your Lightning Lane budget, but the quality absolutely justifies it. Sometimes simple food, done exceptionally well, is worth every penny. If you're near Disney and craving authentic Japanese comfort food instead of another theme park burger, put Susuru on your list. Just do yourself a favor and arrive early... unless standing in line is your favorite Disney ride. 5/5 - I'll happily be back for another round of skewers.

The beef ribs were mostly fat and still very tough to chew. The chicken was woody breast, making it dry and very difficult to eat. The rice was even worse. They replaced it three times. The first two batches were hard, and the third batch was actually undercooked. The service was by far the biggest disappointment. Even though ordering is done on an iPad, they still kept forgetting items. We had to remind the staff multiple times before the food finally arrived. Every dish took 10-15 minutes or longer to arrive, yet customers are expected to finish their meal within a 90-minute time limit. This is a Japanese BBQ restaurant where the staff is simply bringing out raw meat for customers to grill at the table. There is really no reason it should take 10-15 minutes to deliver each order. To make it even more frustrating, the restaurant wasn't even busy. During our entire meal, there were only two or three other tables occupied, so it's hard to understand why the service was so slow and disorganized. To make matters worse, an 18% service charge was automatically added to the bill. I don't mind paying a service charge for good service, but charging that much when the service is this slow and disappointing feels completely unjustified. Our bill was over $210 for three people, and that didn't even include any drinks. At that price, there are many better Japanese BBQ options available. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back, and I can't recommend this place.

I've followed Chef Sean "Sonny" Nguyen from the beginning, and I honestly believe they serve some of the best ramen in Florida. I've recommended DOMU to countless friends over the years. Unfortunately, this isn't a review about the food. It's about how customers are treated. This past Friday, my wife, my two daughters, and I drove almost an hour to Dr. Phillips. We arrived at exactly 9:32 PM, almost 90 minutes before the posted 11:00 PM closing time, only to be greeted with a sign saying they were no longer accepting tables due to an extended waitlist. This wasn't the first time. It wasn't even the second or third. This is now the 4th or 5th time we've driven all the way there only to be turned away. What makes it even more frustrating is that the restaurant didn't appear to be overflowing with people. There were multiple empty tables visible inside, yet we were told they couldn't seat anyone else. At some point, this stops being bad luck and becomes a management problem. If demand is consistently exceeding capacity, then implement a reservation system or another predictable process. Customers shouldn't have to gamble on driving an hour with their family only to be told they can't eat. To be honest, it almost feels like maintaining an artificially long waitlist has become part of the restaurant's image. Whether that's true or not, that's certainly how it comes across after experiencing this repeatedly. Michelin recognition and great food can only take a restaurant so far. Hospitality is equally important, and repeatedly turning away loyal customers well before closing time is simply not acceptable. I sincerely hope Chef Sonny Nguyen sees this because I've supported DOMU for years and genuinely want them to succeed. But after being turned away for the fourth or fifth time, I can no longer recommend making a long drive unless you're willing to risk leaving hungry. Great food deserves great customer service. Right now, the customer experience isn't living up to the quality of the kitchen.
