Decor.

First time here, but not the last. We enjoyed the quality of the food and the presentation. The lunch AYCE price was right for us. The ambiance and service met our expectations, however, it is the food we will be coming back for. The place is very clean, including the kitchen (as far as I could see on my way to the restroom) and bathroom. I highly recommend this restaurant.

My boyfriend and I came here for all-you-can-eat hot pot and sushi, and we honestly could not be more impressed. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The price alone blew our minds and after we finished eating, we genuinely double-checked the bill to make sure they didn't forget to charge us extra because of how much we ate. The value is unreal. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious, with some of the best cuts of fish I've ever had in my life. Every roll tasted clean, high-quality, and perfectly prepared. We both left completely stuffed, amazed that we were able to eat that much incredible food for such a budget-friendly price. The staff was extremely kind, welcoming, and accommodating, which made the experience even better. The restaurant itself was very clean and had such a cozy, inviting ambience, especially with the Christmas lights, it felt warm and comforting the moment we walked in. My boyfriend was just as impressed as I was, both with the service and the quality of the food. We're genuinely so grateful we decided to take a chance and come here today. This place has officially become a go-to dinner spot, and we will absolutely be recommending it to all of our friends and family. If you're looking for amazing all-you-can-eat sushi and hot pot that's delicious, filling, affordable, and welcoming, this is the place. We will 100% be back. I wish I had taken more pictures of the well presented food but I was too busy eating!! Haha

Diet Pepsi Cup with unknown caked substance in it.

The service isn't too great but nothing horrible, my finances cup was dirty and had an unknown substance on the inside. To top it all off, the crabmeat was spoiled and tasted vile. Definitely wouldn't return. We were way too nervous to ask for a refund, Do not eat here. This is my very first review and I feel as if it was very needed...

Premium sushi (limit 1 per person)
Raquel M.

The premium jumbo scallop and salmon belly is excellent. It was a shame it's only one per person because I definitely wanted more. The nigiri was good and had a nice rice to fish ratio. The service was friendly but we had to ask for things like regular soy sauce and refills on drinks multiple times before we got them. We were patient and the servers were kind so we didn't mind much. I will say I was looking forward to trying the spicy tuna crispy rice pictured on yelp... but it's wasn't on the all you can eat menu. Overall it was a pleasant experience and good food.

Spicy Garlic Edamame

Me And My Girlfriend Decided To Try A Different Sushi Spot From Our Usual, It's Not Bad Just Different. The Restaurant Is Nice, Could Be A Little Cleaner. The Service Seems A Little Disorganized, Our Plates Got Left On Our Table For Sometime And If You Get One Of The Little Booths It's A Tight Squeeze. The Owner Is Super Nice.

Amazing service Amazing food Great sushi Clean Owner is delightful Honestly I really like this place it's so amazing try it

Frosty beer.  Kick back time.
Richard H.

Wow it is scorching hot today . And I need a Friday afternoon kick back beer . Here I am. I like the vibe here - especially the outdoor patio area - pretty romantic. This could be my Friday / weekend spot for relaxing kick back. Happy Friday.

Hot Cheeto roll
Victor D.

I came with a group and we ordered all you can eat. You get 3 rounds and there is a wide variety of options. Some of my favorites were the hot cheeto roll, salmon delight, and Philadelphia roll. I also liked the Jalapeño poppers and chicken teriyaki appetizer. The service was good and I would come back.

Seared *VIRAL* Jumbo 7PC Salmon Nigiri
Ciara T.

$30 for flavorless seared salmon nigiri with way more rice than salmon. Didn't taste as fresh as I hoped either. I should have known it would be bad because it came with spicy mayo. Very disappointing

Salmon, eel, and jalapeno poppers
Nicole F.

Tried this place due to their current ayce lunch special for $27.99. Staff was friendly and polite and were willing to offer their suggestions. My favorite was the sushi taco, though its more of a tostada and a little messy to eat, but good none the less. All the fish was very fresh.

Jumbo 7PC Salmon Nigiri
Ashley V.

Placed a to go order to try their new jumbo shrimp nigiri and the food was amazing. The seared jumbo salmon is my personal favorite, I wasn't sure what to expect with the cajun seasoning but it worked perfectly. The staff was also very friendly when I picked up my order, will definitely come back to get again.

Love coming here! The ambience is always great, the music is top tier. And the owner and staff are all so kind and friendly, amazing service always. The food is great, i recommend and will continue coming back.

Sushi assortment

Environment: Playing jpop which is a great touch. Floor was a little sticky. Saw some gnats. Food: No squid or ikura. Bummer. Inari is bad. Tastes like it was soaking in bad water. Unagi (eel) sushi was great. Easily the best thing here. Nice char, and not too much sauce. Yellowtail is also great. Tako was chewy, but that's to be expected. Not bad. Oishii: no rice, imitation crab with some sashimi wrapped in cucumber. Not bad, but mostly tasted of imitation crab. Tamago: not bad, but I've had much better from similar places around here. Sushi taco: sashimi on deep fried tortilla. Fun concept, but very difficult to eat, and shell was more greasy than crispy. The cilantro and sauce on it are really good and go well with the sashimi though. Salmon sushi: was on the lean side without stripes of marbling you usually see. Flavor wasn't bad. Tempura was lackluster. Didn't have kabocha or sweet potato. The the sauce was strangely thick and sweet. Service: I came right at opening and there was an inexperienced server, but he did a great job! Seems like he didn't have any help for serving the whole restaurant, but did the best he could. Strange thing happened. I asked for cucumber with the yellow tail cut roll, and they asked if I wanted it with or without avocado. I've never heard of this coming with avocado in all sushi places I've been to. It doesn't say it on the all you can eat menu, and it isn't listed in the pictured menu either. Sad to say, I'll probably go down the street to sushi okoku next time.

Awesome place with wonderful owners We love it here, owner gave us a bottle on the house. Thank you so much taiyo's sushi

Decided to stop in a top reviewed sushi place in Riverside,CA…read more I'm glad I did. I wasn't extremely hungry but wanted to try some variety. I ordered 2 rolls and the Mussel Appetizer. The Jeff roll had the most flavor, Inside spicy Tuna and outside avo and topped with crispy fried garlic and onions. The Thai Shrimp coconut was experimental. Reminded me of a spring shrimp roll almost. Very fresh tasting. And even came with a few pieces of coconut battered shrimp! The mussels, were standard sushi restaurant mussels. Very fresh tasting and a great way to complement the rolls. Definitely would return again as they have a huge menu! And price is fair.

After reading some of the reviews my girlfriend and I were slightly hesitant to go for the first…read moretime but decided to give it a try and a few things to note. We went on a Saturday at 6pm without joining the waitlist as yelp said we didn't need to. Our experience vs recent yelp reviews was overall pretty damn positive. The only thing that is true that every other review mentions is yes they add auto gratuity so when you get your check the option is there to still add a tip which if you don't pay attention can lead to you giving a 25%+ tip without realizing it. The service we had was fast, I still don't know who our server was because about 6 different people kept asking us if we needed anything. Our tablet worked fine and we were able to order everything from it without having it malfunctioning or not working as some others have stated. One odd thing to mention is the soda cup is about 2x as big as the water cup. The sushi itself tasted good, however my girlfriend and I try to get our moneys worth so we normally only pick nigiri and the standard apps, and avoid any kind of rolls. Our take is on the carpaccio, seared salmon, tuna, and escolar, and fresh water eel. All the nigiri we had weren't "fishy" or tasted not fresh or whatever some of the other reviews mentioned but again we didn't have any of the items other people have complained about. So if you're looking for an AYCE sushi place and are tryna get your moneys worth I'd say it's a good place to go.

Did anything happen at this place in the last few months?…read more The nigiris looked like they were made with some leftover scrap fish. I remember the fish to be decent here for an ayce. Out of the four adults at the table, three had diarrhea immediately afterwards and one of the three threw up too. It doesn't look like we will be here again until I read reviews that something has changed.

First off, for me, my photos don't do this place justice. My husband and I have been here maybe 4…read moretimes when we want sushi, or ramen, and this place just happens to serve enough for us to share. I'm currently pregnant and before I enjoyed going out for sushi at our normal location south of the 210. However, I prefer to stay as local as possible nowadays and try to find places that I can enjoy. I am obsessed with the "Golden California" rolls, and if you don't know what that is, it is a California roll that is fried in tempura batter. I can't always find a place with that style roll and when we happened upon this place our very first time, I saw that they offered the roll. Well, let's fast forward to present, and our order is usually always the same. Husband and I share a Golden California roll, a ramen we feel like having spicy, some mixed tempura with shrimp and then he will choose a roll that's more on the raw fish side. I actually changed it up our last visit l because I did not realize they had a Spicy Golden California, and that roll was very good. I'd definitely get that one again when we are on a sushi run. My sister and my nephew are also sushi people, and they have never been to this spot. I took some sushi to go, and they actually enjoyed it. They too are used to the other spot we frequent, but this is perfect for just my husband and I as we do t consume too much to warrant a visit to the spot we usually go to. If you're in the area, looking for a sushi spot, I'd recommend it. I know they offer other items, we just haven't decided to try anything other than our usual mix.

Very disappointing experience today…read more This was actually our second chance for this restaurant. We used to enjoy the food, but previous visits were plagued by incorrect orders because staff repeatedly chose not to write anything down. Today, my husband found a hair fried into the batter of his popcorn lobster roll. It was wrapped around the piece of "lobster," making it clear the hair was there during preparation--not something that fell onto the food afterward. It also raises concerns about basic food safety practices, including whether proper hair restraints were being used by whoever prepared the meal. He quietly brought it to the staff's attention, and they simply took the plate away. No apology. No follow-up. To make matters worse, we were still charged for the contaminated roll. We mentioned it again when paying and, again, received no apology and no offer to remove the charge. Mistakes can happen. What shouldn't happen is dismissing a legitimate food safety concern and charging customers for contaminated food without so much as an apology.
