Expérience à faire avec les ados. Décor superbe avec les écrans géants. Le bbq au centre de la table, les plats qui arrivent par convoyeur ou train rendent tout ca très originale. Très bonne nourriture pour le type de souper'à volonté'.
Excellente expérience! Les sushis étaient frais, savoureux & il y avait énormément de choix. Les viandes étaient tout aussi excellentes, bien assaisonnées & de très bonne qualité. Le service était rapide, le personnel était accueillant & l'ambiance est unique, le décor est fantastique.
75$ ( 55$+15% tax+18%service) for very average Sushi , no thank you. The decoration is beautiful but the food is average, it's very expensive compare to other sushi places
Edit: second visit izakaya floor
Came here again but this time tried the izakaya. The vibes are obviously great. The water bottle & glasses are more for like a Bachelorette party vibe.
Tried the brochette variety dish, the taiyo burger( not the mountain sized one) duck platter & the ramen.
Honestly all the food was great EXCEPT THE RAMEN, the ramen was horrible. When they served it, there was no broth, the noodles were soggy, because the server probably forgot about it & let the noodles sit in the broth for too long before serving. The pickled veggie they had on it had no flavor & the pork was basically slices of bacon made into a circular shape. For what they charged i was offended at what was served for this .
However the rest of the food was great & flavorful. Not sure i would go back to the izakaya part of the restaurant again. For the high price & bitter after taste of that very poorly cooked ramen, i think ill stick to their bbq floor & sushi floor.
Also note. Their out door private bubble pods are only for those who order up to several huundred dollars worth of food &/or drink. I believe the medium pods were 300 & big ones 500. But i could be mistaken or remembering the amounts incorrectly.
First visit: bbq floor
Came during the lunch time. The menu was perfect. A good amount of beef & pork options. Honestly had everything you need for a good AYCE bbq. Service was quick, however it wasnt super busy when i was there, if it is for you then it could be possible service is slower. But keep in mind they just opened recently.
As for my experience. Orders came in at a timely fashion, i really enjoyed the conveyor belt & train delivery system, reminiscent of dining experiences i had in Japan. Food was overall pretty good. The only improvement i would say would be on the plates section, i tried the general tao chicken to see how it was. It was crunchy & had a bit of flavor but very little to no meat. Obviously you come for the meat & sushi, which were absolutly delicious, but if they want to improve, that would be one.
Aside from that the decoration is amazing. I love how the stairs to the sushi bar light up with every step you take. The projections are beautiful & enchanting. The bbq floor was filled with led animations. It is pretty awesome.
Sorry for the long review, & no picture.
But would happily return here .
Hopefully this was helpful.
We made our reservation over two months ago & were really looking forward to trying this restaurant after hearing so much about it. Unfortunately, while the experience wasn't terrible, it was somewhat disappointing for us overall.
I'm giving 3 stars mainly for the excellent service, the beautiful decor, & a few menu items that we genuinely enjoyed. The shrimp tempura was outstanding-light, crisp, & not greasy at all. The sweet potato tempura was equally good. We also enjoyed the peanut butter dumplings & the torched salmon with foie gras sushi.
That said, many of the other dishes didn't live up to our expectations. The beef tataki was decent, but the salmon tataki was not to our taste. The sushi, overall, felt fairly ordinary & underwhelming given the restaurant's reputation & the difficulty of getting a reservation.
The grilled skewers were particularly disappointing. The two shrimp skewers we tried were bland, but they were not the biggest issue. The lamb skewer was almost inedible for us, it was nearly raw in the center & consisted mostly of fat. The beef skewer lacked flavor, & the chicken skewer was extremely dry & tough. We ended up leaving much of that portion of the meal unfinished, which was disappointing considering how much we had been looking forward to the experience.
One thing that significantly impacted our evening was how cold it was inside the restaurant. We mentioned it to our waiter, who was very kind & apologetic, but explained that there wasn't much they could do because of the way the ventilation system is set up above certain tables. By the end of the meal, we were genuinely uncomfortable & left feeling frozen. Even raising the temperature by a degree or two would likely make a big difference for guests seated in those areas.
Overall, there were definitely some highlights, but unfortunately not enough for us to return or recommend to our friends.
Been here twice so far for the AYCE sushi. Would love to go more often, but they are booked pretty far ahead. This is definitely in the top, maybe even the best all you can eat sushi in town. The food is the star of the show. They have some great sashimi & everything else is tasty, fresh & comes out quick. The service is courteous & efficient. The decor is well thought of & the ambiance is intimate. Do not skip on the desserts, the cakes are delicious.
