I like to watch the food coming and the anticipation is great fun. The problem is when you mix All-You-Can-Eat with the delightful conveyor belt sushi, the end result is an excess of California rolls, spicy tuna rolls and just about everything made with Kani (imitation crab stick). I would recommend that you take a good look at what is on the conveyor belt before you commit to this experience. If you like imitation crab then this is the place for you. If, like me, you prefer salmon, tuna, yellowtail.... then maybe pass this one by. Also, take a look at how busy it is. If the crowd is winding down and it doesn 't look busy, realize that the belt isn 't going to be refilled so what you see is what you get. If it is busy and folks are actively picking from the belt then you know more food will be put out because an empty belt is obviously not good for business. But I do find that these AYCE places tend to put the cheaper items up because there is no way a belt needs THIS many California rolls. I see a lot of items like crab stick and spicy minced tuna made from scraps. While here I didn 't see any sashimi or sushi pieces. I also didn 't see any creative rolls or anything unique. I did see a few vegetarian options, though, which is good. Very few but they were there (cucumber roll, seaweed salad). Lots of dessert items on the belt as well. I think they should call 'All The Crabstick You Can Eat ' buffet instead. Lol. With three fellas making sushi I expected to see maybe a few phillie rolls, maybe some yellowtail, and a shrimp tempura roll. I saw no rolls topped with fish pieces and absolutely no sashimi/sushi pieces. No rolls wrapped creatively, like in cucumber or soy paper, and I didn’t see a single flying fish roe. Just very basic maki rolls. In the end with the lack of variety and my aversion to the crabstick, I only ate about 2 maki rolls worth, which is not worth the $15 for the lunch buffet, in my humble opinion. I hope Sushi Densha sees this and decides that variety is the spice of life. Happy customers come back. Unhappy ones usually don 't.
