Omar Gabriel Torres ValenciaMarch 6, 2016Be 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.
JasonSeptember 30, 2016Pretty 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.
Sarah KimDecember 20, 2019I’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
OliApril 14, 2017Best 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.
KarenFebruary 12, 2018Ample seating. Excellent service. Enjoy hot pot with your unlimited sushi and sashimi. The desserts here are also very good!
SandraJanuary 22, 2014Craving for sushi or asian food? Go to Ichi Umi! Great lunch buffet only 18$! So many different dishes you won't be able to taste all of them! And the food is just absolutely delicious! 🍣👅
MeliFebruary 25, 2013This place is every sushi lover's paradise. Plates and plates of sushi trays of various variety. They even have a dessert aisle! I don't have much of a taste palate, but the friend says it's yummy.
FoodtoEatJuly 25, 2012Come here if you are looking to eat some serious sushi! Also available is unlimited crab legs, oysters, desert, and anything you can possibly imagine. One of NYC's best kept secrets!
Armand D.April 10, 2017Weird schedule. Open for lunch then closed in the afternoon, then open again for dinner. If you're looking for a late lunch, forget this place. On the plus side, the best AYCE sushi buffet in NYC.
JuApril 4, 2016Incredible buffet with all you can eat scallions uni oysters and all the Japanese variety!
Krzysztof L.October 31, 2016Korean restaurant with all-you-can-eat option for just 32$. Choice of food is reaaaaalllly amazing! Quality is little bit worse and service is awful however I still recommend to visit this place!
From The World BlogOctober 23, 2012Forget 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.- Jeannette L.December 12, 2016One of the best sushi buffets in the area. You get your bang for your buck. It's worth the price.
Jessica LeeSeptember 1, 2016Vicky, the bartender, is super friendly and personable. Make sure you get on her good side and she'll always take good care of you.
Vivian VoNovember 23, 2014Faves: scallops, cuttlefish, tuna tataki, lobster salad. Weekday lunch is cheaper!
Julie SonMarch 12, 2012Pricey 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.
Dianna AntlocerMay 4, 2010The 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
Eduardo MaresFebruary 12, 2015Best Japanese buffet I've tried! There's so much to eat and everything is simply delicious!
Amazing variety of sushi and sashimi. I love sea urchin (Uni) and this place has the best one out of the other Japanese restaurants I've been to.- Angel PerezSeptember 13, 2015Sushi was really good and the crapes are amazing! Large buffet with lots of options.
Never dined here, but I go for their underground bar (left staircase when you enter). Loungey vibe and good crowd.
Alberto Diaz-LealApril 6, 2015All you can eat including oysters, crab legs and sushi! Not fancy but good value for money.- Angel PerezSeptember 13, 2015Sushi was good and the crapes were amazing! Large buffet with lots of options.
Wil JeudyMay 25, 2014Expensive, but worth it! Sushi, greens, fresh shellfish, fresh fish -- it's all here
Tamara DDecember 23, 2018There is quite a lot to choose from. Make sure you get a hot pot to make your own soup.
Gina GallioneMarch 9, 2013Huge variety of seafood to sushi to meats to desserts. Worth $35. Stayed for 3 hours. Nice waitresses too
嘉豪 徐March 3, 2010A 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!
What's Good HereFebruary 27, 2015Wide selection of entrees at this all you can eat buffet. Quality is also a notch above.
Frances TranApril 29, 2013The 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 >__<
Jess NaldoSeptember 22, 2014Pretty 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. 😳
This is my version of heaven. Try everything. Twice.
Marlo ColquhounOctober 3, 2011One of the best places to have sushi for lunch. Very affordable and fresh!
AlexFebruary 19, 2010Huge, fresh oysters and crab legs. Great selection of sushi and sashimi. Huge selection of fish as well. Emphasis on fresh!
Burce ErgelMarch 10, 2014A large variety of food at the buffet but not of good quality in general...
