I really wanted to like this place. Dinners are 16.95 Lunches are 11.95 Sunday buffet is 14.95 All Day Let me first say, there was a lot of food for the price. Even crab! We had the Dinner Buffet. I'm always down for some good seafood. I'm also really down for some Chinese Dim Sum! All of which are on this buffet. If you're not picky about tastes and take it for what it is, a decently priced asian buffet, this place is not bad. What made this experience, just average for me is their sushi! Great that the sushi comes on little boats floating on water. Love that! But, this was some of the most terrible sushi I've ever tasted. The rice was not sushi rice. Not seasoned. Some pieces were overly mushy, while other pieces of rice was HARD as pebbles! Bland and not flavorful sushi rice. If you go to a authentic sushi spot where you "pay" the price for quality sushi, you'll understand what I mean by 'sushi rice.' I pulled sushi off of the 'boats' and also ordered off of their limited sushi menu. Made 'fresh.' The tempura flakes were NOT crunchy. Tasted OLD and like STALE fried bits. Oily. Nasty. They sprinkle these tempura flakes all over most of their 'specialty' sushi items. So bad. We tried 7 out of the 8 'specialty' sushi. The salmon skin hand rolls came with flimsy, oily, fish skins. Not crisp and fresh. Seemed like the salmon skins were made in bulk, sat out, then just assembled in a messy hand roll. Shrimp Tempura used in the sushi was also OLD, OILY, and STALE tasting. They do upcharge if you don't eat all the sushi. Rightfully so, SOOOO beware and order sushi with caution. Go SLOW and be sure you like the flavor before you order too much. Also the 'imitation' crab lacked flavor as well and it is in most of their 'specialty' sushi, too. Blah! Overall, I can't say it was a 4 star DINNER experience, as it's rated on Google Maps. Maybe for lunch at a $11.95 price, it might be worth the cost, but honestly I would pay more for higher quality sushi. Will do that the next time. On the plus side, we had great, quick service. The host that sat us was a bright soul. Thank you!

Kobe Sushi Buffet is well kept and staff are very friendly :) We got here a little after they opened at 11 and it already had people at the sushi bar. You choose either a table or the bar, then your host/(ess) with take your drink order. You are free to start taking whichever plates that catch your interest as they float by on the little boats! (My favorite part! And waaaay more affordable and variety than when ordering at a regular sushi restaurant) They have something for everyone! For picky eaters or those with an asian cuisine aversion, there are even chicken nuggets and french fries available! They offer all you can eat sushi on the boats, chinese food in the buffet area, and a Mongolian bbq available (when the chef is in) to have your food cooked in front of you it looks like! Naturally with a buffet style restaurant, not *all* of the food is fresh and hot, but despite that, we loved it and will definitely be back! I was wondering if they have a system to tell how long a food item has been in rotation on the boat train, but wasn't really prepared to ask the sushi chef, he seemed busy anyway lol

Service is amazing and friendly. Food was beyond exceptional and I've ate sushi for years at some of the top restaurants in San Francisco and elsewhere. I have family from Japan and had made sushi at home myself, and I've owned three coffee shops so I can tell you this place is clean and very well managed. We have taken friends here on special occasions, my wife and I do our date nights here, my daughter and I have our sit down and enjoy each other's company session... I guess you could just say my whole family loves this place. Met the owner Kevin wants and a very very nice person. All the staff are kind. They're very good at accommodating people with disabilities, again they are friendly. I would recommend not eating for a day or two prior going because you're going to love every bite so much you'll want to try everything.

By far the best sushi in the entire valley. The staff is very friendly. There's plenty of seating. A very short wait if anything. It is all you can eat, and has a wonderful buffet as well. The sushi comes around on boats and there's more than enough. Special order items off of a menu can be ordered such as dragon rolls. It's definitely well worth the price at $22.95 per person for dinner. It's a great place for a date, a family get-together, kids enjoy the place as well. The food is actually made fresh right in front of you and is put on boats that come around to you and you take whatever you want. There's plenty of handicap parking and handicap entrance. There are even vegetarian choices as well as some other special dietary items. Gets better and better every time.

Been there twice, could not tell you exactly how many times we've been there but we're going again with a new group of people on the 18 th. Just about every time we bring someone new with us, and they become regular customers as well. Fantastic place to go. Very clean and professional. Great buffet. Fantastic choices of fresh sushi. Price Includes all you can eat sushi that you can pick from small boats that pass by you, special order menu, desert buffet, even a larger selection of other than sushi buffet. Great place if you just want to try different types of sushi without breaking the bank. Under $19 per person for lunch. Very popular place to eat. Only thing has changed is, they got even better

Awesome floating sushi boats rotating around the bar. Great seafood selections. Lots of other asian dishes, though a bit limited than other larger buffets.
