    Be realistic, it is a buffet so if you're looking for the highest quality sushi in NYC you will certainly not find it here. Anyway, food is really good and the quality price-ratio is excellent.

    Pretty pricey but a great choice for food! Kids only eat free or discounted based on height, there's a crudely made ruler along the wall near the host. Food is eh quality but variety makes up for it!

    They have very fresh fish and on occasion, even have uni! Just beware of that one person that takes all the oysters without any regard for anyone else at the buffet.

    I’ve been to better AYCE sushi buffets. Downstairs bar/club is best for chill nights bc there’s enough space to dance, cheap bottle service, & decent music. Best for smokers b/c no long re-entry lines

    Best all you can eat buffet in the city! The sushi is decent and they have a variety of other kinds of dishes including crab legs, shrimp, fish, shellfish, beef, chicken. Dinner has the better stuff.

    Craving for sushi or asian food? Go to Ichi Umi! Great lunch buffet only 18$! So many different dishes you won't be able to taste all of them! And the food is just absolutely delicious! 🍣👅

    This place is every sushi lover's paradise. Plates and plates of sushi trays of various variety. They even have a dessert aisle! I don't have much of a taste palate, but the friend says it's yummy.

    Come here if you are looking to eat some serious sushi! Also available is unlimited crab legs, oysters, desert, and anything you can possibly imagine. One of NYC's best kept secrets!

    Weird schedule. Open for lunch then closed in the afternoon, then open again for dinner. If you're looking for a late lunch, forget this place. On the plus side, the best AYCE sushi buffet in NYC.

    Korean restaurant with all-you-can-eat option for just 32$. Choice of food is reaaaaalllly amazing! Quality is little bit worse and service is awful however I still recommend to visit this place!

    Forget all your judgments about Japanese “all you can eat”places. In Ichiumi you will find a huge counter, endless fields of very fresh sushi, with an impressive assortment.

    One of the best sushi buffets in the area. You get your bang for your buck. It's worth the price.

    Pricey on weekend nights. Variety of seafood. Fresh raw oysters, stuffed mussels, clams, crabcakes. Yakitori, lots of sushi. Ramen, udon, teriyaki. Lots of desserts. Crepes ok.

    The sea bass is outstanding, the crab cakes are great, cold snow crab legs too. The sushi is quite good as well. The new dumpling oven was fun. Take a pass on the deeserts as they are all frozen an

    Never dined here, but I go for their underground bar (left staircase when you enter). Loungey vibe and good crowd.

    A new addition is their Vegetarian and Pork & Vegetable Gyoza & Shumai in a machine in the heart of the restaurant's dining area. Don't miss it! Try all four kinds served in it!

    Pretty decent selection of sushi and hot food but expected more. Shame on not having soft-serve machine which is like a BUFFET STAPLE. Beware of the elbows thrown while waiting for salmon sashimi. 😳

    The lunch buffet here really isn't worth it- they hold a lot of the yummier sushi back for dinner, which makes sense economically but I if I'm paying for a sushi buffet I expect more variety >__<
