i really like Sushi Kim, an authentic Korean sushi place with alot of Korean entrees. but no, they don't have all you can eat. i have been to Kiku in station square for their all you can eat BUT it comes in platters and you have to eat what they give you. i would not recommend it. and of course there is Sushi Too in shadyside and possible a new location coming soon on Carson street. Very good fish!! They have very good Japanese food,too. you can check out there menu at: www.sgi.net/jbloch/pgh/dining.html

Yep. The Japanese restaurant in Market Square also does all you can eat sushi and tempura on Saturday nights. ****************************************************************** Jim Mann [email removed] Transarc Corporation The Gulf Tower, 707 Grant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 (412) 338-4442 WWW Homepage: http://www.transarc.com/~jmann/Home.html
Yeah, Kiku in station square does "all you can eat" at specified times [you have to make reservations]. It's sushi and tempura. The tempura is good, but the sushi... well, it's not bad, but you can't ask for what you want, they bring you out plates, and there's always some sort of evil crab salad roll included, and maybe 2-4 fairly standard pieces, plus maybe some california roll. There's no real "all you can eat" sushi in town.

Hi Julie,
Sushi Two on Carson on the South Side is really good, I think better than Kiku. They have all you can eat every Tuesday night starting at 5:00. Not buffet style. I don't think you'll be dissapointed.

My mom is from Japan & she loves their chirashi (sashimi tuna on sushi rice) bowl. Midori is actually a Korean-owned Japanese place. You can tell that they are Korean by the Korean characters in their signage. I've been to a few on Lincoln Av. and have not been impressed. Kamahachi is excellent. We just wish that Honda's was still around. They had the BEST & most authentic Japanese food. They imported many of their ingredients and had the freshest fish around. Roger O.

I never did manage to find very good > sushi in Chicago, but I never looked very hard. In order of my favorite preferences: Kamehachi on Wells, also has special latenight sushi bar upstairs. Midori, on Bryn Mawr, between Kedzie and Kimball. Excellent firstimer restaurant, with really good cooked food selections So everyone is happy. Also has tatami rooms. Naniwa, on Wells by Ohio, excellent freshness, but a wee bit pricey. You get what you pay for. Sunshine, about 5400 N. Clark Akai Hana, on E. Lake, right off the Edens East. Great place for kids too. There's a few places that I don't remember their names but at the intersection of Rt. 62 and Arlington Heights Road. On 62 just East. All pretty good places because their main clientele are real japanese. Acutally if we were willing, it would be fun to get 10 together in a tatami room at Midori sometime. They are the American style rooms, where your legs and feet are acutally sunk under the table.

Kuni himself is at the head of the sushi bar. He has very fresh fish and gives very thick slices. And if you get lucky, he may have toro and Japanese tuna. If you want good Japanese food, then Akai Hana is a sure-bet. But if you want fantastic sushi, no one does it better than Kuni-san. - Paul
