That's a win book! We got there about 15 minutes earlier than our original time and they were still very willing to seat us to our table. 2nd win! Our server Anna was fabulous. Very attentive and gave great recommendations. Since I was with three hardy eaters, we went with Ozeki and it was plenty of food at the end. Check them out - highly recommend. Good location but they had their AC turned on pretty low that it got chilly before the grill was turned on.

The fish is always super fresh, delicious & served in generous portions. The prices aren't the cheapest, but you're definitely paying for quality. Temari Special Sashimi Combo ($33) - Comes with rice, miso soup & the appetizer of the day. They give you tons of fish, making it 1 of the best deals on the menu. They're always super fresh & I've never left disappointed. I recommend sticking with the sashimi or tonkatsu. Their ramen is just mediocre, so I'd avoid it.

We came back tonight for the AYCE. You order from an app that you connect from your phone. The…read moreordering was easy and each person in the party can order items at the same time. There's a limit on nigiri/sashimi to one piece per order. What that means is that, when you put in your first (and subsequent orders), you can order one tuna, one salmon, etc nigiri/sashimi. That is a lot better than what I originally thought, which was one nigiri/sashimi total for each round. The variety in the AYCE is impressive. Lots of sushi, sashimi, nigiri, salads, soups, variety of appetizers (not all fried stuff!) and hibachi (beef, chicken and shrimp). Tonight, the food arrived pretty quickly after we put in an order. There was an issue toward the end of the evening when the app stopped working at our table and the table next to ours. The Staff did what they could to fix things; it did take about 20 minutes, though. I'm assuming this isn't typical. Staff did say that this does happen from time to time and the customer needs to exit the app and reorder. Except for the 20 minute delay, things worked fine. We placed at least 12 small orders during our meal. The staff was very good about filling water glasses, bringing our food and taking away empty plates. Really - high praise for the staff. The restaurant is very pleasant to sit in. It has Asian motif and nice music playing over the PA. The only issue was with the ordering system, which, as I said, I'm thinking was unusual. Ice cream and soft drinks included.

Many raw things were warm, and I got terrible stomach pain and nausea from their raw oyster, which was warm and tasted terrible. This convinced me that their food is not being kept in safe conditions. Their sushi rolls with "spicy tuna" or "spicy salmon" were chock full of tempura/panko flakes mixed with the fish, resulting in barely any actual tuna or salmon in the roll. Any rolls with tempura shrimp were soggy and lukewarm. Don't trust any videos you see online of this place because the actual rolls you get are 70% rice. This is the worst sushi experience I've ever had, mainly because it caused terrible indigestion from unsafe food handling on Kabuto's part.

Although the rolls are generally fresh, they are placed in the buffet area and you serve yourself rather than made to order. The selection is also more limited than at other AYCE places of similar quality and the other places offer other buffet dishes.

The food is made fresh. I know they are known for their souffle pancakes and desserts, but the dinner menu is also delicious. I have had the katsu sandwich and the curry. The sandwich was moist, hot, and had a great texture and flavor. The sauce they use also compliments the meat. The curry is a classic curry. The souffle pancakes are such a treat!! I have had the ube and strawberry flavor. I recommend the strawberry. The ube is good, but the icing on it can get a little overwhelming due to the sheer amount you get and I ended up scraping half of it off. Due to the way they are made to maintain the size and texture, they do have an eggier taste than normal pancakes. I personally enjoy it, but just fair warning if you are particularly sensitive to the taste of eggs. But, they do advertise it as a souffle pancake, so the egg taste is not surprising! This place is always busy and everything is made fresh. It is not fast food! Be prepared for around a 20-minute wait. There is an anime store to browse in the front, but that would be a little hard to do while waiting for your food because securing a seat is a bit of a rat race if you are alone. If you come in a group, have somebody secure a seat first.
