    Great restaurant to have in Houston. The prices for all you can eat sushi are so worth the BBQ ribs next to a shaggy roll. There was great customer service and the water tasted like it was some natural place that we don’t deserve here in houston. Overall 15/10!

    Latest edit (12/7): the quality of food dropped compared to my first visit…

    This place was 7month ago under different management and was really bad.
    The new owner is doing everything right! Thank god they eliminated Valet-only parking from the previous owner.
    They have an unbeatable AYCE offer with great variety. All items on the menu are super fresh and high quality. Can highly recommend the seafood and sushi options here. The team is very friendly and service is super fast. Will definitely come back!

    This place is legendary. All you could eat for lunch at 23 bucks, got two rolls, miso soup, several nigiri, and green tea. Friendly staff. Gave us an extra roll on the house. Music was a tad loud, but other than that 10/10

    This is great sushi restaurant with superb service.
    The vibes, the team is friendly and welcoming and even comped a starter. We did not ask for this but think it was due to one of our items taking longer than expected. This was a fantastic place to celebrate my birthday.

    This restaurant, hidden away on South Shepherd, is a gem of a restaurant. Although Houston is fortunate to have many good Japanese restaurants, I encourage Houstonians to visit this restaurant for its very good sushi (certainly in my top 5) and excellent service. While there are traditional favorites on the menu, there are a few unique items I would recommend, such as the Wagyu sushi and the seared salmon roll with roe. The owner/manager dropped by to talk briefly with us to ensure we were well served and enjoying the meal. While I didn't try the all-you-can-eat menu, I've heard it's quite good and a real bargain.

    The all you can eat option is an INSANE deal. Seriously. The selection is diverse and the quality is excellent (so much better than other all you can eat sushi places I’ve tried). I almost felt bad, like I was getting too much compared to how much I paid.

    HIGHLY recommend giving this spot a try.

    Dined at Sun Japanese Kitchen and tried their $35 all-you-can-eat option last night, and I have to say, it's definitely worth the money! The variety and quality of the food were pretty impressive, with fresh sushi and well-prepared dishes that left us satisfied.

    The hosts were all very helpful and incredibly nice, making the experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a great value and solid Japanese food, I would highly recommend giving Sun Japanese Kitchen a try!
