Disappointing Experience with Food and Service
My experience at this restaurant was quite negative. The food wasn't fresh, which is a major concern. Additionally, the staff seemed to try and seat smaller parties on the conveyor belt, which felt like an odd arrangement. I also encountered issues with the bill, as they attempted to add additional charges that were not ordered. To make matters worse, they automatically added the tip without any justification, which I found disrespectful, even though I typically tip when dining out.

Sweet Treat, Lovely Chinatown Experience
My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. I purchased 4 sugar-coated strawberries for $9. 99, which was a bit pricey for the quantity. However, the overall experience in the heart of Chinatown was lovely. The service and atmosphere were both rated a perfect 5, indicating a very pleasant environment and attentive staff. Unfortunately, the food quality received a low score of 2, suggesting a significant area for improvement in that aspect.

Awful Service, Decent Sushi
My experience at this restaurant was quite negative due to the awful service. Upon sitting down, chopsticks were literally thrown at us by the waitress, which was an unpleasant start. While the sushi itself was decent, it was presented poorly and didn't seem very fresh. Considering the price, I felt the overall experience wasn't worth it, describing the place as a scam.

Pleasant Place, Good Food, Fair Price
The place is nice, the food is tasty and at a good price. Nothing spectacular, rather normal, but very clean. Atmosphere was rated 4/4, Food was rated 4/4, and Service was rated 3/3.

Okay Sushi, Poor Service Experience
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The sushi was okay, but the service from an older female waitress was subpar. She didn't make eye contact, served us bitter iced tea, and rolled her eyes when we pointed out the issue with the iced tea. Her tone was curt, and she gave us the impression she disliked us. However, the sushi chef was friendly.

Fun Family Dinner with Floating Buffets!
Our family had a great experience here! The kids loved seeing the food and having fun with the floating buffet boats. The prices were reasonable, and we felt comfortable throughout our meal. We highly recommend trying the eel! 😜

Avoid This Place for Service
My experience at this restaurant in Chinatown was marred by exceptionally poor service. The older waitress working there has a horrible attitude and seemed to be struggling between tasks. She even harassed me about the tip. If you want to have a memorable time in Chinatown, I would avoid this place.

Wonderful Time with Great Food and Service
My mom and I had a wonderful time at this restaurant. We enjoyed dishes like the California roll and other sushi from the floating boats. The service was wonderful, and the food was good. The atmosphere was lively, with people dining and others preparing sushi.

Unappealing Food and High Prices
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing. The dishes looked far from fresh, and the prices were high for what was offered. After some hesitation, we decided not to dine there due to the unappealing appearance of the food. To make matters worse, as we were leaving, we were asked to pay $3 because our children had used the restaurant’s restroom. This, coupled with an unpleasant attitude from the staff, solidified our decision. We’re glad we chose not to eat there.

Mixed Experience with Service Issues
My recent visit to this restaurant was a mixed bag. Upon arrival, the service from the server woman was terrible. While the concept of receiving sushi on a boat is quite good, I found that the sushi sat on the boat for a while, so I recommend asking for fresh sushi if you go. The chef's service was pretty good; he was nice. However, the lady server had a really bad attitude and, to top it off, overcharged us for items we didn't order. Be cautious and mark down what you ordered before paying, as this is a very overpriced sushi place. The atmosphere was very quiet with hardly any people.
