Machi Sushi

Machi Sushi has a charming decor and a pleasant atmosphere. If you’re celebrating a birthday, the staff will even sing to you, which adds a fun and memorable touch. The food is fresh and delicious, especially the sushi, which stands out for its clean flavors and quality. One important thing to keep in mind is that pricing per person may change on weekends. Also, it’s best to order only what you’re sure you will eat, as leaving food on your plate can result in being charged the full price of that dish. I visited with my family, and at first, our server was noticeably unfriendly and distant. We weren’t sure if it had to do with the fact that we were speaking Spanish, but eventually, she relaxed, and the service improved somewhat. What I appreciated most about this place was the freshness of the sushi and how well everything was prepared. It’s a good option if you’re in Austin and looking to enjoy flavorful, high-quality sushi.

One of my guys recommended this place for lunch one day. And then the whole crew pretty much showed up. We were like 10 deep in this place. We were the first large group to show up. The hostess even was like shocked and awe when we arrived. The ambiance of this place is nice and relaxing. A bit on the dark side but again relaxing. You have a choice during lunch. You can either go with a bento box or all you can eat for lunch. I highly recommend the all you can eat sushi. The value of the deal is amazing especially with the quality of the sushi they offer. I was skeptical about coming, but I am glad I trusted my co-worker’s recommendation. It was well worth it.

Machi Sushi is my absolute favorite all-you-can-eat sushi spot in Austin! Their all-you-can-eat lunch option is available weekday from 11 AM to 3 PM. The food is delicious, and the raw fish is always incredibly fresh. The staff is super attentive to your needs, and they bring out the dishes remarkably fast. Plus, the dining area has charming decor and is always tidy, creating a really pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend it!

This was the first time we’ve been here. As soon as we walked in the guy at the front desk was funny and welcoming. As soon as we sat down our waitress Mariangel came and helped us out. She was very attentive, nice and helpful. She came to check on us and made sure we were enjoying the food and if to see if we needed anything else or wanted to order more food. The other workers were also very friendly when they delivered our food and helped clear the table. The music was great and I highly recommend this place if you enjoy lots of sushi. The green tea ice cream was really tasty too. Overall, great experience and will come again!

This is a family friendly and personal friendly restaurant with Japanese decoration. I tried the tuna, salmon, and octopus sashimi—all incredibly fresh and flavorful. The tempura was light and crispy, not greasy at all, and the miso soup was the perfect savory start. The edamame was perfectly salted and addicting. The hibachi chicken was juicy and packed with flavor, and the seaweed salad was refreshing with just the right balance of tang and crunch. The service was friendly and efficient, and everything came out quickly and beautifully plated. For an all-you-can-eat spot, the quality rivals many high-end sushi places. Definitely coming back—and bringing friends!

This was my first time here, and we chose the all-you-can-eat option. The fresh eel sushi was incredible! The sashimi was also very fresh. Annie is our server was attentive, friendly, and gave great recommendations. The restaurant is beautiful and has a culturally authentic Japanese feel, it creates a really nice atmosphere. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the boba tea, it lacked flavor and wasn’t as sweet or creamy as I expected. But overall, it was a great experience. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a great lunch experience at Machi Sushi! The ambiance was welcoming and stylish, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy a meal. Our food came out quickly, and everything was fresh and flavorful. The prices were very reasonable for the quality, which was a nice bonus. Since we came for lunch, we didn’t get to try the sashimi (which is only available at dinner), but our server kindly offered to upgrade us to the dinner menu. We decided to save it for next time—definitely something to look forward to! Overall, it was a great experience, and we’ll be back to try more of the menu soon!

Rad place. Great ATCE menu. Great value at lunch. I’ll bring my kids and probably get a la carte since I’m not looking to stuff myself and the girls can eat never ending sushi. Dining room is stylish and a little chilly- but after some miso soup and hot tea we were set. Many rolls are deep fried, I recommend the hand rolls and tempura. I wish there was more soup options but that’s because I’m a broth boy at heart.

Absolutely Amazing experience! The food was great and we had the best server ever ! Thank you Emanuelle!!!

I am a huge fan of Machi!! Their $25 all you can eat lunch just can not be beat. The price compared to what you're offered is incredible! $36 Dinner is damn good too and had even more options! I've been here several times and every time the table service is friendly and super fast! The bartender was a little stale once but I was just ordering a drink while waiting for a friend so I didn't have to deal with him much. Since they do get busy and work very fast they sometimes bring stuff to the table that isn't yours so watch for what's being dropped off. Now the food!! Ohhh the options for all you can eat are endless!! I HIGHLY recommend the soft shell crab roll, hamachi chili, Cajun roll! These are all on the dinner menu. If you're there for lunch try the dynamite roll and the futomaki roll!! Absolutely fantastic! Their desserts are amazing too! Fried Oreos, fried Twinkie's, fried bananas, and assorted ice cream! There's so much more on the menu these are just some of my faves you've really got to give this place a try!

Had I been writing this review months ago it would have been a 5 - but unfortunately, it seems like every time I come back, the quality gets worse and worse. I came for lunch and ordered yellowtail and salmon nigiri, a salmon and avocado hand roll, and a Philly roll. (Also crab Rangoon, beef fried rice, and green tea ice cream but this review really is for my sushi) The salmon nigiri tasted odd, so I thought it was a one off (I only ate 1 of 3) but after one bite of the the salmon hand roll I almost gagged from how fishy the taste was. The smoked salmon and yellowtail were fine but I do not think the salmon was as fresh as it should have been. I personally love salmon so that was really disappointing. My service was excellent and I have no complaints there. After my visit, I checked the health department score and it did drop between the few months they did their visits, so I wonder if there is a correlation there. Will probably be taking a long hiatus and hope that the quality returns to what it was when Machi first opened.

Food: don't get the fried calamari. It was really bad. It tasted extremely frozen. The crab lagoons were good I will say. The miso soup pretty good too. Margaritas are not really that strong, but they were good. The rolls were OK. I feel like they were lacking something but the sushi with the raw fish on top was really good especially the salmon!! Overall I feel like I just give it three stars because the food is either a hit or a miss. I came during dinner and I just feel like for the price. The quality doesn't match. I would much rather go for lunch. Service: the service was great. Our waiter was new so obviously he was having a bit more trouble just suggesting, but he was very kind and checked up on us. Ambiance: the place is super decorated. It's so cute. They only have one restroom for female and male.

The service was quick and polite. Our server came by a lot to check on us. We came on a weekend. It looks like you will be paying the dinner ayce price all day on the weekends? I don't think it was mentioned anywhere. Based on the food quality, we will not be returning.

This restaurant is awesome!!! All the food was great!!! Service was exceptional!!! Ambiance is awesome!! Great place to bring the family!! I had a group of 11. Our waiter Alan U was one of the best!!

Great AYCE sushi in Austin for $25 lunch and $36 dinner. At sushi buffets, I'm there for the salmon sashimi, and yes, it delivered. Food: Thick slabs of salmon, okay tuna, and rolls that are packed with fish and light on rice. You can order 20 pieces of sashimi per fish per order with unlimited orders for 2 hours. Service: Very fast, very friendly, willing to sing happy birthday for our friends. Ambiance: Plenty of seating, parking, and surprisingly comfortable chairs. Overall, it's a great place to get your sushi fill! You can check out their menu here: https://qrco.de/bff8W4.

Really solid AYCE sushi spot! We're staying at the hotel next door and decided to stop by here for AYCE lunch. $25 for lunch is not bad at all. We found the fish quality to be pretty good and they didn't skimp out on the cut size. We left very full and satisfied! Service was ultra fast too! We got our food within minutes of ordering. Our server was very friendly and respectful. Everyone else was quick at clearing our tables of dirty plates.

THE BIG: Located in South Austin, right off of I35 and East Oltorf road. The restaurant shares space with the Aiden Austin City Hotel. Interior is beautiful that is a futuristic tokyo punk vibes. Parking lot is available and limited but fortunately there's spillover in the hotel lot. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here with a co worker and we are sushi fiends. This place is AYCE and had a large menu list of sushi on order, rather than buffet style. The first order we went kinda crazy. Still managed to eat it all but that definitely lowered the four or five orders down to two or three. We got some yakitori, hamachi, takoyaki, tempura as starters. Then for the sushi, some of the highlights were the dragon roll, volcano roll (has cheetos on top), cowboy roll, and a TON of nigiri. Doesn't have the highest quality nigiri, but still satisfied the taste buds. THE FINAL BAMBOO: We came during lunch hours which has a cheaper price, however we wanted the full menu and got hte dinner price which was around $36pp. Worth it. Definitely a must try if you're hungry and looking for a sushi fix.

My husband and I have been here twice already and loved it! The first time we went was during dinner time (AUCE $35.95/ea) It was pretty busy, but they were super nice about it. The second time was during lunch on a Monday and it was pretty empty (AUCE $24.95/ea) Both times we had an incredible service. When you go there for the first time, the server will explain everything to you and it's so helpful, especially if you're new to the all you can eat world, or, like me, you're still unsure to some of the dishes. Everything we tried was really really good. The tempura is light and crispy. The ingredients are fresh, and the avocado is always perfect! I normally don't do a lot of spicy, but their dishes were very doable. Not too spicy. So if you like to have that extra kick, I'd probably ask for sauces to the side. The only two things I noticed that I tried once and that was it: - Fried calamari were stringy. They had some kind of hard string, and I wasn't a fan of it. - The Crab Rangoons could've had a better ratio between crab and cream cheese, but I loved the crunch to it The indoor place is really cool as well! There are a lot of cool decorations and I personally love the moody vibes! Overall, I'd really like it and I give it a 8/10!

Wow! Great experience! I remember when this location was a terrible sad old Chinese restaurant. Everything is new & fresh and food was amazing. We had lots of great stuff and tried a couple of unique fun things like a Houston roll that has hot Cheetohs on it. Superb service too!

We came here for a big group celebration. My friend selected here for a group of over 20 people. We rsvp for around 2:30pm on a weekend. The place was packed at 2:30pm, which was surprising to me. There was also a wait. The interior was very well decorated and it looks like they remodel to enclose outdoor seating. While the indoor seating was well decorated, I like seating the "outdoor" part. It was less crowded and more space to move around. As I didn't expect too much from a AYCE sushi restaurant, I found everything else very accommodating. The waiter was very friendly and took all over our order. We ordered rounds and rounds of sushi and sashimi. I was that person who would try to get my money worth with sashimi. The service was very fast and we got our food really fast. This was surprising to me base on how busy it was. Overall, the service was great, the place was well decorated, the fish is good for what it was. We had to pay over 40$/ppl, which was a little steep for me. Will I come back here by myself again, probably not. But will I recommend a big group celebration, yes!

Stopped for dinner with a friend to curb a sushi craving! A cute spot tucked away off 35 the inside is decorated well with cute flowers hanging . Our waiter and the rest of the staff were very accommodating--our food came out fast! I would definitely recommend ordering in stages and taking it slow! We were starving and ordered a ton at once and which definitely was a mistake . Dinner includes a soup and salad and then you can choose to order from apps, sushi rolls, hibachi style entrees, and sashimi. We ordered a little from each section--the gyoza was really good it seemed fresh with a good dipping sauce. My favorite roll was the fire one with fresh jalapeños--they added different texture and freshness. Overall good experience --come hungry and take your time!

Came here on February 22nd, 2025 with a good group of guys. We were all starving and got the all you can eat deal, which is a fantastic deal. Our server was incredibly helpful and fast. We tried almost everything on the all you can eat menu! The rolls are really well made and tasty. I prefer the ones with salmon or tuna. The nigiri is really nice as well. Don't forget about the appetizers too! Overall, if you are looking for an all you can eat sushi place in town then this is the spot. Be prepared to wait for a while if you come at lunch or dinner time.

I visited this restaurant on 3/11/25; and was extremely turned off. I had high hopes of finding a sushi restaurant for a good deal but after my experience, I don't think I'll be returning. *I want to preface this by saying that I don't think ALL the servers here do this.* My server in particular was very sweet and was not the issue here. Another server who brought out my food was carrying my plate of food in his hand and proceeded to cough into the hand carrying my food. To make matters worse, another server was stacking plates of food that was to be SERVED to customers! Not stacking empty plates to clean a table, but literally stacking dishes on top of one another- the bottom of plates were touching food. I cannot be more clear. I really tried my best to keep a positive, hopeful attitude but after what I had witnessed- I decided to speak to their manager. I did emphasize that it was not my particular server and I did point out the specific servers. The manager proceeded to apologize and explain that they are a new restaurant and are busy. She gave me a coupon for boba. But after what I witnessed, why would I ever step back into this establishment when it was clearly very unhygienic The food: mediocre, I think once you've been spoiled with high end sushi, this may or may not be your cup of tea. Their sushi rolls were alright. I also ordered their udon dish with beef because it looked really good, but unfortunately it was one of the plates stacked under another plate of food. The calamari was mid- it was mostly just the squid tubes, not the mini octopus/tentacles you might see in other calamari dishes (or at least that was what my dish was like). Their hot green tea was pretty standard.

Went for the all you can eat lunch on a Friday afternoon and it was pretty packed. We arrived around 1pm and were seated in one of the outer rooms, which had a noticeably different vibe without the beautiful ceiling decor from the main area. I would have preferred to sit in the main area. Service was excellent, as the staff checked in right as we finished each round and were friendly and happily took our order. For appetizers, I really enjoyed the miso soup, seaweed salad, and aged tofu. The salmon nigiri was especially fresh with wonderful plump and fresh rice. We tried the Skinny Girl roll, Golden Dragon roll, Rainbow roll, and Spicy Salmon roll. The Golden Dragon and Rainbow rolls were standouts, but overall everything was solid despite the limited roll selection.

Work trip to Austin means I had to find an AYCE sushi spot to try out. Machi sushi didn't disappoint! They were fast at getting my orders in and served. I was honestly surprised about how fast they were coming out. The restaurant has a cool look and vibe. Sushi tasted great! Highly recommend! My waiter Jonah was the best part of the experience! He was very helpful when I asked for recommendations and very social. You could tell he knows how to serve guest/customers and never stopped checking in on if I needed anything! Get this man a raise!

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally tried it with my friend last night. The sushi was really good and a decent size. We order sashimi, hand rolls, and a couple of signature rolls. Our waiter Alan was very funny and attentive and got our food out very quickly. We ordered 3 rounds of food. This is absolutely worth it for all you can eat. Come hungry! The inside of the restaurant was really nice. Unfortunately, there's only a single bathroom for each gender so you have to wait in line to use the restroom. We came on a Monday night and the parking lot was pretty full, not sure what parking would look like on the weekend. I would definitely come again on a weeknight.

A friend recommended this spot, and it's definitely a great value for the price! You can opt for the all-you-can-eat, but make sure you come hungry. The food was decent overall -- my favorite was the sweet potato roll. It does get pretty busy, and the ambiance is on the darker side.

This spot is connected to a hotel on the south side of Austin. Parking lot is small and doesn't have enough room for cars to pass in both directions. We were sat quickly and our waiter was very attentive . I started with a Thai tea (not included in AYCE price. ) The tea itself was very watered down however the boba was a great texture. 2/5 Shumi was good but had a strange texture inside 4/5 The spicy edamame was very flavorful. 5/5 The baked green muscles were enjoyable nothing special that you can't get at the other ayce spots but I enjoyed- 4/5 The fried jalapeño(honeymoon) was basically a fried jalapeño popper- 5/5 but its served as a half a jalapeño cut into 2- if there's multiple people you might need to order a few at a time. The hamachi chili & pepper tuna tataki was great tasted fresh with a great sauce on top 4/5 Both the rolls were had (#18/#19) were falling apart, not much flavor to them as you would expect 3/5. The white tuna nigiri was very bland as well but fish seemed fresh 3/5 The shrimp yakatori was grilled shrimp with a sweet sauce on top-3/5 The habachi shrimp was grilled shrimp with a savory sauce 4/5 Fried Oreo was quite greasy 3/.5 . Bathroom was dirty and floors very slippery through the restaurant. Decorative very modern with lots of plants and neat lighting- seats were comfy. Wouldn't take the drive again from round rock to go here but if I'm the area, I might give them another try. Wasn't really impressed overall there's other ayce spot around town that I've enjoyed more.

You typically can't expect much from AYCE sushi places and Machi Sushi is no exception. Really basic menu, food was just okay, wait time a little long. With the ambience you'd expect a higher quality experience. Not the best AYCE sushi around Austin.

You would think that an AYCE buffet would have slow service but nope, Machi Sushi prioritizes getting people in and out which was greatly appreciated. We had a group of 10+ people and everyone left full and satisfied in just over an hour. The drinks, variety of rolls, and the fish itself were solid. I can't believe a legit AYCE sushi place like this exists in Austin. I would happily go back! My only complaint is that there's only one bathroom per gender and the bathroom floor itself was kind of slick... but surprisingly I never had to wait to use the restroom, so it wasn't really an issue but flagging just in case!

Definitely a great spot. They were super quick with the orders like really quick. The food was great. Outside of the calamari everything else was great. The vibes are on point great design and seating.

All you can eat sushi places scare the heck out of me but I will say this place has got it going on! The service is insanely attentive. We were all working on our laptops and the waitress was respectful and kept the food coming. I ordered off of their lovely lunch menu and got two rolls and a water for under $13. The place was clean and the restrooms were adequate (single stalls). Will definitely be back!

Great prices and even better food! Machi Sushi is hands down one of the best all-you-can-eat Japanese spots in Austin. Every dish we tried was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From sushi rolls to appetizers, everything hit the spot. If you're craving Japanese food without breaking the bank--this is the place!

The service was really kind and they did a very sweet surprise for my birthday. They had a robot come out with them to sing and brought me some desserts with a candle to blow out. Overall, the fish was surprisingly very fresh. We ordered a ton of sashimi and it was so easy to bite through, and dissolved so easily. The rolls stuck together and didn't fall apart. I also liked the portions for the rolls which made them easy to split for two people.

The service was good, our waitress was very attentive. Some dishes did take a while to come out. The sushi wasn't mind blowing, but the apps were good. Overall a great deal. They don't take reservations and we went at 1pm on a Sunday and it was packed. Even with the whole place packed, it wasn't too loud or too close together that it would affect your conversation at the tables. We were really did not like the volcano roll. They do charge a leftovers fee if you have too much of a roll left on your table. Save room for dessert! The fried desserts were very good!

This was our first time visiting this restaurant, which operates like a buffet but with slightly different rules. When we were seated, the hostess didn't explain how the system works. We waited for a server, and when they came, we finally understood the concept: there is a fixed price of $25 before 3 PM (lunch) and $35 after 3 PM (dinner), allowing you to order unlimited dishes during your meal. All the food was fresh and delicious. The fish, sashimi, and all the rolls we ordered were incredibly flavorful. The seafood tasted fresh, and the salad was also great. Overall, the food deserves five stars--it's definitely worth the price. Unlike some buffets that offer dishes with imitation crab or stale fish, everything here was of high quality. There's a wide selection of dishes, plenty to choose from, and drinks are paid for separately. They also offer a small selection of desserts (five options). Unfortunately, when they served the ice cream, it came in a chipped bowl. This is unacceptable, as bacteria can gather in the cracks. As the restaurant owner, you should remove damaged dishes immediately and never serve food in them. The atmosphere was lovely. The space was clean, beautifully designed, and well-lit, with attractive decor and well-set tables. It made for a very pleasant dining experience. Our server was very friendly and attentive--thank you to them! However, we were disappointed that the hostess didn't explain the rules of the restaurant, which caused some confusion at the start.

A giant Transformer, robot waiters, AYCE sushi, dancing fish on the ceiling, and decent drinks make me very happy! You will probably wait to sit. Like for a while. You'll survive. And it's all good. I personally like that there are some veg/vegan friendly options AND cooked dishes so everyone can enjoy a meal here. And if you like less common rolls, they have ones with beef and Cheetos. Truly, something for everyone!

Machi is so adorable inside and we were seated quickly for a party of two. We were excited by how many options were on the AYCE Dinner menu. I'm giving this three stars because the food itself was really hit or miss. All of the cooked food was great - tempura, cooked rolls, dessert. The fresh food was mediocre at best. The edamame did not taste fresh and the raw fish was chewy and tasty fishy. TLDR - I would not return for fresh food, but if you're craving deep fried it hits the spot.

SERVICE/AMBIANCE: - This restaurant is very beautiful! I loved the interior of it - It seems to be quite popular, so I would expect a wait if you go with a party. We waited around an hour for four people. FOOD - Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! My friends and I did that all you can eat menu, which was $36 on the weekend. I would recommend going with a group of people so you can maximize the amount of things you can try. - Unlike a sushi buffet, you place your orders with a waiter and the rolls are made fresh. I thought the quality of everything was amazing.

Came to Machi Sushi for the lunch AYCE menu. There's not too many around so I HAD to try it since I'm a big sushi lover! Starting off when coming in, the atmosphere is beautiful! We were helped instantly since there was no wait time but it was on the busier side by the time we left. Food wise, everything came out really quickly. With that being said, the nigiri was decent. For the price, it is worth it since we got two plates worth but I wouldn't say it's the highest quality. The yellowtail was the highlight! We got a couple rolls like the skinny girl roll and double spicy roll. The rolls tasted mediocre, not much variety to them as well. We enjoyed the Dynamite roll the best! Overall, it was a cute place for a quick sushi date on a budget!

The hype is most certainly real, y'all. I had the eel roll, vegas roll, sweetheart roll, gyoza, seaweed salad, mushroom soup, cold sake, and some yakotori and nothing dissapointed. For just $35/person the all you can eat sushi was so damn good. As said previously they also have lots of other options besides sushi like chicken/beef takoyaki, miso soup, mushroom soup, seaweed salad, etc. and it was all great. Our server River was also very attentive and fortunately we weren't charged any extra for the few pieces of sushi we couldn't finish because we were all impossibly full by the end of the experience. They also don't do any "gotcha" policies like only having sushi and ensuring you eat the rice so you get fuller faster because they openly offer the choice to just have the fish by itself. We'll certainly be back soon!

Um wow! This was my first all you can eat sushi experience and it was pretty great. It's in the old Marco Polo dim sum restaurant location next to a Best Western. There's a full lot but plenty of parking in the adjoining hotel lot. They don't take reservations unless you have a party of six or more so we went on a weekday and got a lunch rate of $25 per person. No line at all. The apps are pretty standard and delicious. There are about six cooked roll and six raw rolls and about 15 types of nigiri. There are also tons of hand rolls and additional basic sushi rolls. The tiny guy seated next to me ate 20 nigiri the first round, then 3 giant hand rolls, and then another round of 20 nigiri. He was ordering more when we left! Hollow legs may have put a dent in their profits that day. The food was as good or better than what you'd get from central market to go, which is $12 for one roll. It's not melt in your mouth sushi from Uchi so don't expect that. The robot server was a little useless and confused. Maybe it was her first day and she was shadowing. Service was fast and friendly but they could use about three more bussers since there are so many plates. It's a nice intimate environment. Lots of two tops. I liked the red bean paste ice cream and fried Oreo. If you come at night it's $35 pp, but there's an expanded menu. I will definitely go again, and bring my teenage nephews.

You'll be sure to have a fun time eating AYCE sushi here!! There's plenty of parking, you can park in front of the hotel too I'm pretty sure. The restaurant is to the left of the hotel. Reservations can only be made if you have a party of 6 or more, and must be made at least the day before. There's an automatic gratuity of 18% for 6 or more. We went on a Sunday for lunchtime and although it was pretty full, it didn't seem like there were any parties waiting. The setting inside is nicely decorated and sets a fun vibe. I was very pleased about the variety of dishes we could order - there are soups, noodles, plenty of appetizers, hand rolls, cooked rolls, sashimi, seafood, and dessert! I could've filled up just on the appetizers alone. Your table can order up to 20 pieces of sashimi per person per round, which is a lot!! Unlimited rounds for 2 hours. I really liked the smoked salmon sashimi, and the rolls were satisfactory. It's dinner price the whole weekend - $35. I enjoyed the boba as well - got a mango yogurt boba with lychee popping boba. It was super sweet so next time I'd ask if the sweetness can be adjusted. The plastic can you get to take home is a cute touch! Food was SUPER FAST - Literally within 5 minutes of ordering, our food started coming out. This was great because we didn't feel like we had to order before we finished the food each round. It would be nice if they had buttons on the tables to ring down servers, but for the most part they came by our table often. Shoutout to Adam for taking care of us and making our friend's birthday special!

We were at Lake Austin for the holiday weekend. Sushi was on the menu for us. We were seated promptly. The service was good and the food was deliciously. Definitely a good choice!

As far as AYCE sushi places this is a 5 star for me. Please take this review in relation to other ayce places. The sashimi is quite thick and tasted great to me. Service was also super fast! We had 11 people and I started getting my sushi before the other side of the table finished ordering. Rolls were pretty good too! I would skip the boba though not good enough to spend money on. My friend said there aren't enough bathrooms for the capacity. The vibe is a great casual place. Can't go wrong!

I was excited to try this new sushi restaurant, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Unfortunately they don't take reservations for parties under 6 people, so on a Friday night, we were told the wait for 2 people was going to be an hour and a half. However, it only took 40 minutes -- fortunately, it seems like that's a common theme for the wait time to be a lot shorter than originally told. While waiting, you can sit at the bar or they have an outdoor seating area. The service was excellent - our waitress was constantly checking in to see if we needed anything every time she walked by. All the food came out extremely fast! The only exception was the udon that took a while. This place is very affordable and has a large menu with lots of options. Great atmosphere and the inside is very cutely decorated too. The only downside was not being able to see the robot servers which was a cool part of the appeal! They put them away during busy times, which is understandable. This will definitely be a new go-to!

Service was very lacking. When we arrived around 7:30 PM on a Tuesday evening, there was a 15-20 minute wait, and they gave us a beeper. Outside, there is a fun statue, and they have some outdoor seats around the corner from the front. The server kept ignoring us and at one point it had been so long since she'd last checked on us (she was in the back for at least 10-15 minutes) that I had to go searching for someone as everyone else who walked by (not our servers) ignored us. The food came out scary fast. The ginger was disgusting. The wasabi was okay. Most of the sushi rolls were okay, but the price was expensive per person for the AYCE and not worth it, in my opinion. The decor is the best part of this restaurant.

I love this new addition to south Austin. For roughly $35 you get all you can eat sushi but seriously ALL YOU CAN EAT sushi! It was so good. Everything we got was delicious, fresh and flavorful. My highlights were the appetizers and desserts. The inside decor is gorgeous with a bar, flowers and lots of colors. There are plenty of tables and all the waiters and food runners were so nice. Our waitress was very good and we had a lovely time. I'm super excited to bring more people here! Also the transformer in front is so fun!!!!

Machi Sushi is a very welcome addition to the south of downtown sushi scene and already gaining a lot of popularity. For roughly $35 dollars you get all you can eat sushi, sashimi, nigiri, apps, hibachi, deserts etc. That value is hard to beat just based on variety and quantity. Now when it comes to all you can eat sushi in my opinion its all about trying a lot and taking an average. I tried a ton on the menu and overall a majority of it was good quality and satisfied my cravings for that specific item. Some of my highlights were the gyoza, Tokyo roll, spicy tuna sashimi, hibachi steak and hamachi chili. The hamachi chili is so so good and I ordered probably 5-6. The fish is solid and there isn't much fluff or skimping when it comes to most of the items. Personally the spicy tuna roll had panko or something mixed in and I wasn't a huge fan of that but besides this everything felt as it should. Now you aren't going to get absolutely melt in your mouth salmon belly sashimi but what do you expect its $35 all you can eat? I love this place and they have really tasty boba if you are into that as well. Ambiance inside is excellent with tons of decoration and a lot of charm. They don't take reservations so I recommend putting your name down early if it is a busy night. Service is pretty great, people are really nice and attentive, only thing I could see improved is after ordering a lot I had plates keep stacking up that never got taken away until end; started to get in the way. Overall though, excellent AYCE spot with solid food, lots of variety, great ambiance and kind/attentive staff.

FANTASTIC. The ambiance was very nicely decorated with lush plants and lanterns in the shape of Koi fish. Service was excellent, and very comforting. The sushi and other options were excellent. Best value for money in Austin for all you can eat Sushi. I highly recommend getting nigiri. Note: 2 hour time limit for eating, you can leave any leftovers, and no to-go. Alcoholic drinks and hot teas aren't included in the all you can eat price.

Visited machi sushi on a Sunday, we were happily sat quickly for a table for two despite a very full restaurant. Very comfortable chairs! Service was very fast, and food as well came out very fast. A few of the rolls were decent, unfortunately the sashimi lacked flavor and was under seasoned or unseasoned. The spicy tuna roll tuna mix was actually mixed in with tempura inside the roll, I personally have never seen tempura mixed in with the spicy tuna the way it was (roll was returned). The best thing on the menu was the fried Oreo dessert with whipped cream. Restaurant was quite loud but we were still able to chat sitting across from each other.

I was visiting a friend in Austin and we decided to get some sushi after a day of pickleball. This spot had recently opened, and we were told it was still their soft opening. We arrived pretty late, around 8:30PM, but there were still a decent amount of customers. We had a group of 8, but were seated promptly. The interior is lovely, clean, and beautifully decorated! We were greeted quickly and started off with the sashimi. I'm usually pretty wary about AYCE sashimi, but I was surprised at how fresh it tasted! I didn't get photos unfortunately, as my group was HUNGRY. We ordered various rolls, appetizers, and even more sashimi. All of the dishes came out surprisingly fast, despite how busy it was. I'm surprised reading about the service from the other reviews, as my group had a great experience from start to finish. I appreciated that Tina, the manager, came around to make sure our group was properly taken care of and got us any remaining items that were missing. For a spot that's been open for just two weeks, it was a solid experience. The sushi was fresh, tasty, and the selections were endless. I'm also not big on things that are too sweet, but the fried Oreos were also SOLID. I would be happy to stop by this spot again in the future if I'm back in Austin!

Never thought id say this but that's some good value ayce sushi! Not only do they do unlimited thick cut quality fish for sashimi, they also have a huge variety across all categories like hibachi, yak tori, cooked rolls and such so non-fish loved can also enjoy! Surprised I found out about this this late but probably better for my waistline.

Definitely the best bang for your buck when it comes to AYCE sushi. Good quality and fast service. Went to lunch there twice the following week and left full and happy!

Food is pretty good. Enjoyed the sashimi. Very fresh. Didn't get to try a lot of appetizers. But I liked the fried tofu

Gave these guys a try, they had been open long and were working out some service problems but the food was great for the price. Try to order your whole meal at once, don't order a little at a time.
