Wonderful experience! Our server Hailey was the sweetest and helped my mother with the QR code while I was away from the table. We tried a few rolls that our server recommended us, and all were delicious! My favorite was the “ex girlfriend” haha. Will definitely add this spot to our rotation!

We were in the Jurupa Valley and hit hungry and saw this AYCE Restaurant and decided to try it. There’s a waitlist but we got seated right away. They took our order quickly. Seems like a busy restaurant so that means their food must be good. A lot of locals come in even at 3:45 pm they are busy. We ordered our first round with just a sushi, tuna hand roll and all came in pretty quick they have about 7 sushi chefs and made our order fast. Our orders came in all together and it was overwhelmingly a lot.

Can't go wrong with the AYCE, each roll is an absolute banger. Green Goblin is my new personal favorite. Visited this place many times, will return for quality of food and service for sure. Different folks enjoy different flavors and the menu makes sure to hit all the taste buds!The variety always seem to satisfy no matter what my mood is.

The sushi is alright. Some rolls were better than others. The Caliente roll was really good. The seared tuna was good as well. Ordered a handroll, and it was sloppily made. They place so many toppings and sauce on the rolls that you can barely taste the fish. All you can eat for around $35, whole meal for two was $85. 15% mandatory tip for service that is a little mediocre. Was seated outside, and it was not the cleanest area. I understand that it is outside, but at least sweep and dust, maybe have someone wipe down the areas before their shift and before your patrons sit. I was asked to move out of a table, in case a bigger party came. Every table outside was empty, so I didn't understand why we needed to move. It was a bit cold, they might wanna invest in some heating lamps. Also, maybe not keep your to-go supplies cart right in the front near your patrons table. Looks tacky and unorganized. I think I might give it another try .. or maybe not. Others might like it.

2023: Another year, another great experience. Lester welcomed us and explained everything really well. The peppered seared tuna was SO GOOD. The rest of the staff were amazing in getting our orders to us quickly and asking if we needed anything and refilling our cups. We didn't feel rushed and were treated well for the whole time. Bravo! Last year: Took my son for sushi and ordered online and picked up. smooth process and friendly staff. Food was Delicious! fresh and flavorful.
