This restaurant is top of the line! I went with my wife for lunch and our minds (and palates) were blown out of the water! We got the buffet (which is totally worth it for the price!) ordered a few rolls (my personal favotire is the dragon roll, she prefered the mango roll) we ordered the salmon tataki and the tuna tataki (sashimi delicacies covered in the buffet) and the tuna tataki was good not great, but the salmon tataki took the win! That salmon tataki by itself could be worth the peice of the buffet because you can order as much as you want (i am ashamed to confess I ordered about 10 orders of the salmon tataki myself lol). I ordered water but it was not filtered and tasted like tap ( was not a fan) my wife ordered an unsweet tea (she liked it). I also ordered the fried calamari (a little stringy and hard but not the worst) and I ordered some combination noodles (not a fan, the beef was chewy and the noodles lacked some flavor). I know I ate A LOT! My wife was a little embarrassed of my gluttony lol. Our waitress was real nice and explained the menu to us, she was very friendly and did a great job. Overall the restaurant experience was very enjoyable, I would highly

Crissy our server was the best!! I didn’t know what to expect as this was our first time here. So we ordered the all-you-can-eat. Arrived around 1:30 pm on a Friday. No wait. Service was amazing, not ashamed to mention this but we practically ordered every sushi on the menu… over all the fried beef noodles is my absolute favorite! And the Philadelphia roll bc of the Smokey salmon and the mango sushi, WOW WOW WOW!!! Remember to try the Spicy Kani salad bc it’s so fresh. They do have drink specials every day which of course I took advantage of, at least me bc Hubby had some reposado tequila and our son had a surprisingly delicious sake. If you like a sweet wine you will definitely enjoy the plum sake - it is amazing!!! Thank you again Crissy for all your knowledge and advise on everything we tried. ❤️ We will come back!

Sat at the bar with CJ. Very friendly and knowledgeable, he took his time going over the all you can eat menu. All his suggestions were great and everything was fresh and nicely plated. Horacio, the GM, was also very friendly and welcoming. We live in Weslaco, but we will definitely be back! There was also a very nice waitress that was helpful, and so friendly, but we did not get her name! Great team.

All 4 times we have been here the food and service has been on point. If you come on a Friday night expect to wait up to 30 minutes to be seated as it’s quite popular due to its fresh and delicious food. Yesterday our server Roy was unbelievable and provided amazing service and has only worked there 3 days. Tiffany the busgirl was extremely friendly and provided excellent service.

Was a little bit intimidated to try this place as the buffet/all you can eat is limited to only what you can eat, you’ll be charged extra for what you do not finish. However, our waitress Ferren was extremely thorough at explaining the menu and the process of how to order. We ended up ordering a lot of variety of food since everything comes out in small portions. The food came out extremely fast each time. We ordered tuna tataki, yellowtail on fire, yellowtail sashimi (limit is 20 per order but you can also request specific amount each time), vegetable noodles, steak hibachi, mango roll, and tempura cheesecake with ice cream. EVERYTING was amazing. Again thank you to our outstanding waitress. The place was clean, great service, and amazing atmosphere. Will return!!
