- Was there a time limit?
- How much did it cost?

We have these in the Netherlands. The deals are getting less and less good each year but I can answer based on my experience visiting all you can eat sushi places pretty regularly a few years back.
The way it worked was total time limit of 2 hours, they give you an iPad with the menu on it and it can order up to 5 items every 10minutes, some items would be single, but if ordering maki/nigiri etc you'd get X pieces (I think was like 4 maki, 2 nigiri).
Price used to be around 25€ per person but it's probably over 30€ now. Some items like sashimi would be extra, and drinks would also be extra (and overpriced).
The sushi in the places I used to visit were "okay", good enough to do the trick and gorge yourself on raw fish until you can't eat no more.. Could not compare with that one time I ate at a proper sushi chef restaurant but price there was like 10x more.
I didn't see a time limit. But, anything you don't finish, it's charged at full price.
Dinner is $32 USD.
That temaki and maki actually look great! Where is this?
In my experience, AYCE restaurants are just not worth it, especially sushi. The ones that have decent quality are too expensive; I'm always much better off just ordering a la carte from a much higher quality restaurant. And all of the other AYCE restaurants have garbage quality.
But if there's an AYCE sushi restaurant that's cranking out those rolls, I'd gladly conduct further empirical testing!
Yeah. My experience is paper thin sushi over top of day old rice with too much wine. Slow service, low quality/pale fish. I'd rather have less better quality fish from a good restaurant.
Plus the days where I can eat like Homer Simpson are over.
These folks did a really good job. It was our first visit. Service was quick, even for the drinks. Each round was less than 10 minutes wait.
There's always exceptions Glad you had a good experience.
It was our first visit. I was impressed with both food and service.
It's in Medford, MA: Nijiya.
