As far as AYCE goes, the sushi is 5 stars, (not the same as 5 stars at a high-end sushi spot.) Overall experience is closer to a four. This long-time Reno favorite is especially popular with the younger crowd due to the South Midtown location. Popularity is its main weakness though as it makes parking a headache, (not an area to leave valuables), and there is almost always a wait, often nearing or exceeding an hour during prime weekend dinners. No reservations. Don't be surprised if you have to wait outside or in your car. Once seated, place fewer large orders instead of many small ones since staff are stretched thin. Conversation can be tough with the loud packed room and music. Sports usually on big screens. Even at the sushi bar, it is not the usual experience. You still order on paper. High bar fridges block the view, and with 6 to 8 chefs working fast, conversation is unlikely. You are there to eat, not watch the craft or make a new friend behind the bar. Fish quality is about as good as AYCE gets in Reno, and the rice is less sugary than most. Nigiri often has the best fish-to-rice ratio in town. Good roll selection, including a Salmon Skin Handroll. Like many spots, some rolls are heavy on eel sauce or mayo, making the fish secondary unless you skip sauce or choose simpler options. The baked mussel appetizer was drenched in sweet sauce and tasted like candy. Surprised there was no mayo on those too. Price is a couple dollars above average local AYCE but worth it if you tolerate the wait, still cheaper than casinos. Monday through Thursday, sake is included. Arguably the best spot in Reno right now, though on a busy night I might pick one of the close seconds if I want to eat quickly. NOTE: It appeared they charged a higher tip than I left, so check your credit card charge a few days later read more

We decided to give Tokyo Sushi a try and, unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience from start to finish. Upon being seated, we were told to fill out the all-you-can-eat order form as many times as we wanted, which sounded great. I personally don't eat sushi, but I appreciated that they offered protein options like chicken and beef. I ordered a Bento box--simple enough. That's where things started to go downhill. My meal didn't arrive for over 30 minutes, and when it finally did, it was cold. The chicken tasted like pressed meat and was extremely chewy--definitely not what you'd expect from a basic entrée. I wasn't planning to complain, but it became clear the issue wasn't just my order. The other four people in my group were barely being served at all. Meanwhile, tables that were seated after us were receiving multiple rounds of food while we continued waiting. We asked several servers for updates, and each time we were told they'd check on it--only for them to disappear for 10-15 minutes with no follow-up. After spending over two hours there, many of us left hungry and frustrated. I understand places like this may rely on high turnover or tourist traffic, but customer service and basic food quality should still matter. If you're taking the time to read reviews before choosing where to eat, I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere. And just to top it off--the ice cream was so frozen solid in its pre-staged cup that the spoon couldn't even break through it. read more

Absolutely delicious! It's my birthday weekend and I wanted to try out this place! It's super quaint but it's so cute inside. We ordered the Black Angel, a sunomono, sake nigiri and tempura mix. Everything was really really good and the salmon pieces were so thick that I actually felt I got my money worth when they're usually thin! My boyfriend devoured his black angel too! Wasabi was spicy and the ginger was good and they even offered low and regular soy sauce at the table! Highly recommend! read more

Tokyo sushi is our go to for sushi. The hand rolls, long rolls everything is fresh and delicious. Service was fantastic, sat at the sushi bar which is where I love to sit if there is only 2 of us, tables are great as well if you have a larger group. The bar seating now has service buttons at your seat if you need water, drinks or anything that the sushi chef can't provide. This restaurant is always packed, but they do get you in quickly. Atmosphere is clean and inviting. We went home stuffed and into a food coma . If you haven't been here for sushi you must put Tokyo sushi on the top of your list. read more

Overall this is a great little AYCE sushi spot The staff is very busy for all the tables and people but they are quick to check on you. There is a call button so if you need service you can call them because they are constantly bringing food and drinks to all tables. Everything has great flavor and for the price you can really get your money worth. The hand rolls are delicious and the mussels too. There is a wait time but it isn't too bad. If I'm the area this is a great place to come and try read more

The food is one of the best sushi spots around. The outside of the building doesn't represent how nice it is inside with great atmosphere. Lunch is packed, so get there early. Service was super responsive early on.... But we may have gotten lost after the first round. However it was all worth the wait. read more

Tokyo Sushi is one of my go-to sushi spots in town. I always enjoy their nigiri, especially the peppered tuna, they're the only place I know around here that serves it, and it's usually really good depending on which sushi chef is making it. They also have a few solid hand roll options that I like. Service is good and pretty fast, depending on how busy they are. One thing I do wish was better is the sushi rice. It tends to fall apart, and the flavor doesn't really taste like traditional sushi rice. I've also noticed that on the 2nd and 3rd orders, they tend to add more rice. Some of our favorite rolls are the Black Angel, Carson City, Tokyo, and Chao rolls. For sure top 5 sushi spots in Reno for us. read more

Busy busy busy....means always fresh!! Best selection so far that we have discovered with regards to nigiri selections in Reno. They have a buzzer system at the bar when you need to order. Press it and a waitstaff appears. Check the special of the day board to get a new taste. Mussels are limited to 2 orders per person. You can order rolls without all the sauce on them to get the real flavor of the fish. So my chooses and they were all great!! read more

Staff as always very friendly and they work really fast. There's not one time I go to Tokyo Sushi and they are not busy. That says a lot. Pretty good meal, nigiri were made with decent amount of rice, and the long rolls too. Thank you guys read more

This is my favorite Sushi spot when in Reno. The Sushi is always so good and fresh. Service is always on point. They serve nice size rolls and generous portions. I also love the crab roll appetizer. Yum! Great prices Ala Carte or All you can eat. This place is always packed no matter what time of the day you come so it's best to make reservations. Fun and lively atmosphere! Cozy Japanese inspired decor. Accommodating small and large groups. read more

Tokyo Sushi is easily the best sushi spot in Reno absolutely no question about it! From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel welcome, and the service is consistently fast, friendly, and attentive. The sushi itself is unbeatable: fresh, flavorful, and perfectly bite-sized so you can enjoy every roll without feeling overstuffed. My personal favorites are the Tokyo Roll and the M3 Roll as both are packed with flavor and balance beautifully between texture and taste. Every roll feels carefully crafted, and it's clear the chefs here know what they're doing. What sets Tokyo Sushi apart is the consistency you always know you're going to get high-quality sushi and a great experience every time. Whether you're a sushi regular or bringing friends who are new to it, Tokyo Sushi is the place I always recommend. Between the unbeatable rolls, great service, and lively atmosphere, it's the kind of spot you'll keep coming back to again and again. Truly the best sushi in town! read more

It was ok! Pretty long wait but the service, once seated, was pretty fast. I'm also sure they did their best to accommodate us (it was the day after Valentine's Day) so I won't really take that into account. Booths were comfy. However, the sushi was smaller than I expected it to be. The calamari also tasted a bit odd to me, I wasn't expecting that taste with the sauce to be quite honest. Maybe it's an acquired taste, but I personally thought it would do better with the sauce optionally on the side. The nigiri tasted alright too, you're not going to get a fancy buttery salmon taste or anything. For Reno, it'll satisfy a sushi craving though. read more

This place is always packed -- and for good reason. The vibe is loud & fun, with no online or phone reservations, but a nifty "hold your place in line" system. So come early & be ready to wait. For a party of 4 at 6pm, we waited 20 mins. What we ordered: Apps: Baked & unbaked mussels, crab balls, cucumber salad, edamame, miso soup, fried jalapeño, yakiton Rolls & Mains: Spicy Pepper, Lion King, Tokyo, Mt. Fuji, Tahoe Hand Roll, snow hand roll, various nigiri Drinks: Quail egg shooters, unlimited hot sake (which our server shared was on AYCE Thursdays ) Hits: Baked mussels - rich, savory, and addictive Fried jalapeños - crispy, spicy perfection Spicy Pepper & Lion King rolls - full flavor, great texture Unlimited hot sake - obviously Hand rolls - they do not skimp on fish! Misses: Quail egg shooters - too sweet; needs a kick of heat (someone toss a bottle of Tabasco or sriracha over) Tuna - surprisingly didn't taste as "fresh" Parking - the immediate area is extremely limited & you may need to circle around a bit. Loud, lively, and worth the hype -- just skip the sweet shooters and stick with what Tokyo does best: rolls, fried apps, and sake. read more

Best AYCE (all you can eat) sushi restaurant in Reno hands down. Their appetizer baked mussels are delicious. Their hamachi nigiri and fish in general are so fresh. Their cut rolls are smaller in size which gives you the opportunity to try a variety of dishes in one sitting. The service is impeccable -- quick, friendly, and attentive. read more

It had been a while since we had gone to Tokyo Sushi. A lot has changed. The staff for the most part looks new, the ambiance of the place is livelier though a little louder and more upbeat. Some folks might not be a fan. The sushi was still good, small, palatable bites and delicious flavors. I didn't get my usual fried rolls like Godzilla or King Kong, they're always so good--I just went with cooked and raw pieces this time around. Rolls like the Double Tiger, Caterpillar, Tokyo, Midtown, "That's how we roll" are some of my favorites, and if you never tried a hand roll--it's a must. Any flavor! I gave them four stars for the day, rounded up from three and a half based on service engagement. I always appreciate when a waiter can name the rolls we ordered when they drop them off. It helps us to remember the ones we like. The sushi is the star of the show. Introduce them right? I also wish an exception could be made to order à la carte for kids when the adults order all you can eat. That way food is never waisted and money is saved. Otherwise, you have to make sure the kids stomachs aren't bigger than their appetites and order small things for them, appetizers, hand rolls while sharing the rolls adults get. Tokyo Sushi is still a nice place to stop by every once in a while when you want a taste of a few good rolls of sushi. All you can eat, roughly $30 a person. Kids, you can order from their kids section or pay for their AYCE. I recall for one it was almost $20 for a kid under 10. Get your monies worth and go in with an appetite you should leave satisfied. read more

Tokyo Sushi - Not on the menu. I asked for spicy anything. LOL. To die for!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

If only I could give zero star, I would. We've been eating here for the past 2 years, and we love the food. Which make this recent experience more upsetting. On 02/26/2026, we complained about salmon nigiri because it had a dark yellow, egg-like look on some pieces that concerned us. We politely brought this to the attention of one of the waitress. Instead of handling the situation concern professionally, her response felt hostile and dismissive. She took my mom's chopsticks, removed the salmon in question, placed it on our cucumber salad plate, and threw the chopsticks at my mom's plate. We were shocked by the way the situation was handled. A manager then contacted someone identified to us as "Mr. Chao Zhang," who was described as the owner. During the call, we attempted to explain what happened, but the conversation felt abrupt and unproductive. I don't mind paying for our food, it's just $181, like what I told to the owner I can pay for everybody eating at the restaurant that night. Our concern is the way our food safety question and customer service issue were handled. We hope management takes feedback seriously and ensures staff are trained to address customer concerns professionally and respectfully.

Tokyo Sushi has long been one of Northern Nevada's most well-known and popular sushi spots. For years, it's been a go-to for locals and visitors alike -- especially for the fun, lively atmosphere. The restaurant always has great energy: upbeat music, a few TVs, a full sushi bar, and every table usually packed. Even when it's busy, the staff does a great job seating guests in a reasonable amount of time. That said, over the past few years, I've noticed a steady decline in the quality and taste of the food. Tokyo Sushi used to be at the very top of the list when it came to freshness and flavor, but recently, the fish just doesn't seem as fresh or vibrant. I'm not sure if this is due to price increases on imports or changes in sourcing, but the difference is noticeable. Prices remain fair and in line with other all-you-can-eat sushi spots in the area, and it's still a solid place to eat -- just not what it once was. Compared to sushi restaurants in Las Vegas, Reno's sushi scene still has some catching up to do. Down south, the fish tastes fresher, the menus are more extensive, and the variety (including high-end cuts and creative non-sushi options) sets a much higher bar. I truly hope Tokyo Sushi -- being one of the pillars of the Reno sushi scene -- finds a way to recapture its former quality and stand out once again. With a little more focus on freshness and innovation, they could easily reclaim their spot at the top. read more

Great AYCE sushi spot, just outside nearby the Peppermill casino!! Arrived on a Sunday evening at around d 5:30 and the place was packed. Nevertheless joined the waitlist and were quickly seated within 20-25 minutes. The staff are very friendly and attentive. Upon checking, they hand you a menu sheet where you can go through and elect how many of each item you want for everything from starters to desert. This is especially helpful if ordering items that require cooking and take longer!! The food was fantastic, the fish tasted fresh, the long rolls were the perfect portion size (one bite wonders) and the green tea ice cream at the end was the perfect finish. Highly recommend checking out this spot!! read more

To say Tokyo Sushi is your typical parking lot sushi is a bit of a misnomer. It's pretty good sushi and they bring it out, quickly. Almost $30 for AYCE is a bit steep. I guess that's the way of the world. It's crowded. We only waited 30 minutes. Communication was tricky; partly because I'm old and can't hear very well. You can guess the rest. A big Sushi turnoff is stuffing with crab meat or rice. Happy to report that they do neither. Everything tasted fresh and it was all edible At least we didn't need to make reservations, although maybe it would help. The service is fast and parking plentiful. No problems with the food. read more

My review comes from being a tourist visiting family. Reno has quite large number of ayce sushi places that are not solely Asian buffets. Tokyo Sushi has lunch and dinner options. Lunch was approx $30. So even though one could order indiv. items, it's almost not worthwhile compared to ayce option. Coming from CA, this is an incredible deal! At Tokyo Sushi, you can order everything you want in 1 go-- plates are brought out as they are made. Other places tend to go by rounds to slow down and pace eating. Also, it's noted that any leftovers can be charged per slice or item to prevent over-ordering; I think that's standard for any ayce to prevent too much waste. My sister is vegetarian and she tried to order more apps and felt that the variety was limited. The tempura veggies any any other deep fried items were not made with tempura batter and came out on the heavier, greasier end. But she really like the veggie tempura roll. She was surprised they offered full size rolls; if rolls were half sized, one could order more variety. I ordered a roll (but can't remember the name); basically all rolls start with CA roll fillings, but this one had a zesty lemon citrus flavor added. It was different for me, and my favorite. I am not sushi fish connoisseur, so I didn't really favor the 2 Nigiri options- the rice felt pretty heavy and dense and not separated fluffy grains. The handrolls that had little bay scallops also felt super dense. All servers share and can drop off items, so our original server was totally not friendly, but others were much kinder and welcoming. So service just totally depends, but not anything that really affects eating experience. The majority of sushi guys behind the bar are not Japanese (so not trained Japanese sushi chefs), so this is not the place if you're looking for 100 authentic sushi Japanese standards. This place satisfies the general public's taste for more affordable and fresh sushi. I highly recommend ayce options here! read more

I would rate this place 3.5 stars if I could. I ordered a large order to go and scheduled it about three hours prior. I arrived a few minutes earlier to pick it up. About 35 minutes later, I received my order. I was pretty irritated because I'm pretty sure they started making my order when I arrived. They were semi busy but, service was blah. Only redemption is that the sushi were good and tasty. I don't know if I'm going to do that again though. read more

Tokyo Sushi lost our family's business today. We've been loyal customers, but their rigid unwritten policy ruined our experience. After a medical procedure, I can't eat much, so I wanted to order a la carte sushi while my family got AYCE. The waitress insisted I could only order a la carte and wasn't allowed sushi, despite my explanation. No effort was made to accommodate us. My wife was so upset we left. This was never an issue before, but now they've lost a $140+ check. Sushi Pier welcomed us without hassle. Won't be returning to Tokyo Sushi. read more

Ordered the to-go dinner for $31.95 because the restaurant was packed on Friday night for dinner. We had to wait 40 mins to get our food after my husband asked about it several times. The portion was small for each item. Not worth the wait for us. - Agedashi tofu: thin 3 slices of tofu but tasted ok. - Calamari tempura: overcooked & tasted like store bought - Hawaii roll: good roll - Carson city roll: our favorite.

The shrimp tempura was very small but the sushi tasted ok. - Mickey mouse nigiri: tuna tasted fishy for me - Donald duck nigiri: salmon was ok read more

I was here on a business trip, and I chose this for a team lunch. It's unassuming from the outside, but inside looks like a traditional sushi bar. There is ample seating, and even during lunch we got seated quickly. Service was pretty fast, and we opted to go for the à la carte menu rather than all you can eat. We figured to make all you can eat worth it. Everyone would need to eat about three rolls, and we weren't that confident in our ability to do so. We ordered edamame and cucumber salad and House salad as appetizers. All of these were good. We also got the Agada tofu, which was a little bit more crispy than I'm used to. The sushi rolls were abundant on the menu, though it seems like most of them had really similar bases, with a lot of them being snowflake, crap or crab salad. We ordered a few of these, and they all tasted really similar and mayonnaise - forward. We also got some Baked rolls like the Oishi roll, which was a crowd favorite. My personal favorite was the eel Nigiri, which had some Unagi sauce, but was mainly just rice and eel. This is the only role where I really felt. I tasted the flavor of the fish over the flavor of the sauces. I would definitely come back, but I would be a little bit more strategic about what I'm ordering. There was a lot less differentiation between the roles than I expected. read more

Just awesome all you can eat sushi. Very very popular. Plan on waiting for a table though.

Listen, listen, listen, the sushi here will be the best you've had in the area. The cuts are precise, the fish is fresh, especially the salmon, and the variety of rolls is exceptional. Ask for hamachi underbelly, it will melt in your mouth. The service, if improved upon, would make this an easy 5 stars. Come still, don't get me wrong, come, just expect to have to wait after your first orders for all you can eat, and sometimes you get forgotten. read more

Its good. Sadly, not vegas good. However, this is a great place with great people. Here, memories are shared and relationships bloom.

We've tried many AYCE sushi in reno so we decided to give this place a try. We ordered the AYCE set for $35 per person. Everything was loaded with rice. The fish is tiny the size of a pencil eraser. The fish is just for decoration, the sushi was all rice. We put the sushi in our mouth and we didnt even feel the fish but all rice. We asked if they have sashimi and they want to charge extra. When we talked to the server that we thought the rice overpowered the fish, the lady manager came and raised her voice and told us that they have many customers and they are always busy and they dont need us and told us to go eat at other AYCE places. Is this how you treat your customers? We were still hungry but didnt want to order more because we didnt feel like eating more rice so we just paid and left without leaving tips. And we will never come back. read more
