My favorite restaurant

by xladyxbutterflyx

I love the selection of seafood! The buffet offers everything from California rolls to authentic sashimi. They even have a small section for the non-sushi lovers with plenty of tasty options.

Their dessert section is pretty good.

And if you have room... ask your waiter for some green tea icecream! It's unique and delicious (and I believe included in the price you pay for the buffet.)

The only downside is this place is too expensive to eat at on a regular basis -- I believe lunch is about $15 per person and dinner is $22ish.

I go here every year on my birthday. It's so worth it!

• Pros: Very very good food
• Cons: expensive

Not a real Japanese restaurant. Be advised.

by matodesu

I would not recommend this place to anyone who is familiar with true Japanese cuisine, or has a sense for authenticity. It is strictly geared for the indulgent person wishing to gorge themselves with heaps of cheap food.

• Pros: More food than you can shake a stick at
• Cons: Really low quality fish, meats and poultry. Not a Japanese owned or operated sushi restaurant.

One of the best buffets ever!

by dawsonay

If I lived in DFW, this would be my weekly sushi spot. As many have noted the restaurant offers an all you can eat deal for about $30 (including a drink) and you can choose from hibachi faves like teriyaki chicken, beef, short ribs or soups, salads, shabu "pan" goodies, or my favorite-sushi, sashimi, and sushi rolls. Although the morsels of rolls are small it gave me the opportunity to try rolls I don't usually like like spicy salmon or ones with tempura. I prefer non-fried foods when i go out for sushi! The restaurant has ample parking, it wasn't too crowded on a Thursday evening, and the seating area gave me a home-cabin, comfy feel. The food was outstanding, the chefs were friendly and eager to answer questions, and the customer service was great. If you love to gorge on sushi and are in the DFW area, stop by Tokyo One in Addison. You will not be disappointed! I'm going back this week!

• Pros: all you can eat buffet for $27, ample parking, open well layed out area
• Cons: dessert table, but who goes to a sushi spot for dessert?

The best ... hands down

by xjaxson

First off, you can't complain the like jenle about having a service charge for large groups. ANYWHERE you go there is a service charge, and it's usually 18% not 15%. You thought you could avoid it by splitting your bill? That's so cheap and dishonest, of course they're going to add 15% to each person's bill, 15% of $100 is still the same as 15% of four $25 checks, genius.

Now down to the important part, which is the food. The buffet section is set up so that most everyone in your party can find something they love. Sushi selection at dinner is amazing, it would cost you $200 to eat like this at a normal sushi place and that is NO exaggeration. My faves were the rolls, but my group seemed to gobble up the sashimi the most, They've also got a pretty good selection of cooked stuff and salads, the best was the fresh teppanyaki grill where they grill stuff fresh for you. The dessert section is really good, almost feels like one of those fancy hotel brunch layouts with the variety of desserts. Service was pretty good for the most part. I don't think people know how hard it is to handle so many plates, tables and drinks all at once. We had to wait a little sometimes, but the managers where always around when we needed them.

Food quality and selection seems really important here, and they maintain cleanliness pretty well. Overall a pretty good blend of being an upper-end atmosphere without being snobby. Customers seemed pretty dressed up for this place.

We got great service for our party of 18, and no we didn't pay 15% tip. We paid 15% plus another 5% because the whole experience rocked. My whole party loved it and has been bugging me about going back ever since.

• Pros: Amazing selection of food for the price. Value cannot be compared to anyplace.
• Cons: Was a little busy when we went so it seemed kind of crowded.

Average

by jenle

I would not recommend anyone going here in a big group of peoples. They will add on small charges which adds up. I was here with about 15 peoples on different bills. They did not return the correct amount of change to some of my friends and they had over $70 worth of tips already (15% of tip was added in each person's bill)!

its okay for a buffet

by sonic35

If you are looking for real sushi, you shouldnt eat here. Most of their fish is frozen, not fresh. The other stuff on the buffet is good, like the udon. They do have a big variety for those who want to try out sushi for the first time.

• Pros: quick, variety
• Cons: freshness

Great introduction to sushi

SUSHI BUFFET

Those are two words which really should not go together, because sushi goes bad pretty quickly and develops that ugly fishy smell. Tokyo One's sushi rollers are right there at the sushi buffet counter making more sushi, as the ones there move fast.

The place has the old standbys (california roll, spicy tuna, etc.), however they also offer a wide array of unique delights. There are multiple varieties of fresh sushi, sashimi, and seafood salads (try the squid salad if you're brave enough). If that doesn't catch your fancy you can try a wide variety of hot foods including grilled chicken, lamb chops, salmon steak, customized soups, and lots of hibachi goodness. The only thing I don't like about the food is the strange smell that collects around the deep fryer, possibly due to the kind of oil they use.

During dinner hours and lunch on the weekend they have a "Shabu Shabu", which consists of a portable stove and pot filled with soup brought to your table. You can dump all the raw meats and vegetables into the pot for boiling to your liking. I didn't see what the big fuss was about, but my friends were having a ball with it.

Desserts are rather uncommon, but not unwelcome. Along with creme brule, flan, and tapioca there's also some bizarre deserts like green tea cake and Japanese lime cheesecake. Don't forget to ask about their ice cream flavors including such yummy oddites as green tea and red bean (trust me, they taste better than they sound).

The atmosphere is very pleasant, with very prompt service. Japanese artwork decorates the dark wood paneling on the walls, and for some reason the restaurant has wooden shutters on the windows. The place is very clean, and has no fishy smell at all.

This is a great place to go if you're just get acquainted with sushi and don't know if you'll like it. It's also a great bargain compared to normal sushi bars.

• Pros: Prompt service, thrifty meal for sushi
• Cons: strange smell coming from deep fryer
