Decent food. Nice staff and environment.

Probably one of the best buffets in Texas. The sushi is so fresh! and I love all of the seafood. I walk out of here 5 pounds heavier and 2 notches more on my belt.

Although my wife and I normally go to Japan House, we decided to try Tokyo One on my birthday. It was unimpressive. I would recommend going to Japan House instead if you're into the sushi buffet thing. I haven't tried Osaka yet, but it's next on the list. Tokyo One gets points for having great food presentation. Their sashimi and sushi rests on these sculpted ice trays while blue lights give the ice a cool look. Tokyo One's creme brule was also awesome. That being said, in every other way Japan House wins. Japan House has more selections for sushi rolls, sashimi, soups, and seafood.

This is one of the only buffets I will eat at. I love Tokyo One! It's cool that they have so many different food options to please even the pickiest eaters. The have hot options, cold options and sushi sushi sushi! So much to choose from its a little overwhelming but that doesn't stop me from filling up my plate two, three and four times. They also have a large dessert selection that's super tasty. Sure they may be on the pricy side (about $30/person for dinner and kids are not free) but it doesn't stop me from coming. I've always had great service as well.

As a Japanese, all foods in this restaurant is sorry... Nor real Japanese at all. I'll never come back!!!!!
(1)BeefChop S.
yes, finally some good stuff from yelp. japanese buffet. sashimi - not the nicest looking cuts but otherwise goood., 5-6 choices IIRC nigiri sushi was same not big pieces but good rolls not many, didnt try soup: meh: base tasted like miso from those japanese instant soup packet not bad but not great, udon noodle was good texture. other ingredients were ok. kimchi: good short ribs nicely done, good. deserts: not bad. did lunch = busy, but food was quick to be replaced. everything tasted fresh including the sushi/sashimi even with soda, this is still a good value, at least for lunch
(4)Beau J.
Not worth the money. It used to offer much more seafood but it's now dwindled down to soft shell crab legs and shrimp cocktail like any other Asian buffets but at half the price. Some of the raw sushi were tough and too cold to eat. Most of the roe wraps were delicious except for the one with the large, popping eggs because it was extremely salty. The hot pot was a nice addition but there wasn't much of a meat/seafood variety because it only offered brisket, calamari, fish balls, fish filet, and clams. There wasn't much vegetables offered for the hot pot either. Do make sure to get the sorbets (ask for all flavors) at the end because they're not offered on the dessert line. I tried all desserts and none of them were exquisite.
(3)Mia C.
Visited for lunch to celebrate my brother's birthday. The waitress was slow. I privately asked her if they did anything for birthdays, she said yes. While I was in the restroom, she approached my brother and asked if I was the one who wanted the birthday celebration. She ruined the surprise, and on top of that didn't even do anything for his birthday! It was dismissed. Needless to say, as a repeat customer, I don't like that one bit. The food was good, like always. But I hold good service just as high in priority.

As an individual born and raised in Seattle, WA. And growing up with lots of exquisite Japanese/sushi, Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese restraunts. I've lived in Dallas for 3 years and have yet to find a great Japanese restraunt. I came across the Tokyo One in Far North Dallas near Prestonwood/Addison. All you can eat Japanese food and sushi?!?! I'm in!! I had to give it a try. I went there for lunch today. The hostess was very nice and had a very friendly and on the ball waitress. As for the food. They have a Hibachi section. It features steamed white and fried rice, Teriyaki chicken with a touch of sesame seeds, Kobe steak, asian beef ribs on a stick, potstickers. They all tasted fresh and it was very delicious. A veggie bar that features seaweed (Awesome), kimchi (best I've ever had), tofu, cabbage, etc. The sushi bar has California and Philly rolls, spicy tuna rolls, crab rolls, seaweed rolls are all delicious, the tuna, salmon, and snapper sashimi is out of this world awesome! The squid, shrimp, and crab legs are excellent as well. A big mound of wasabi to dish up along with your sushi. There is also a soup bar that has ramen and the waiter/waitress will ask you if you want a bowl of miso soup, which is very delicious. Has cubes of tofu and seaweed. Also they have a dessert bar. I was very impressed and enjoyed it very much! I WILL be coming back. The small negative is the price is pretty steep. It was $26 for the buffet. But you get what you pay for. Be aware they are only open from 11:00-2:30 weekdays and 11:30-2:30 weekends during lunch. It's closed for a few hours then they open back up for dinner from 5:30-9:00. It was awesome and top notch service!

The best Oriental Food Buffet I have found in Dallas. GREAT variety, delicious food. From sushi to saute'.
(5)Magnus L.
I finally went back to Tokyo One after being away for a long time. Not much have changed, pretty good sushi and other food options. Best sushi buffet I've been to the area. It must have been a long time since I was here, last time it was $17 and now it was $21 for a lunch. Tokyo is good but not quite that good. The service is outstanding every time I go here, they won't let you sit at a table with an empty glass.
(3)E C.
decent buffet... not a super selection but a good mixture. Wasn't cheap so it's just a place for a group of ppl that wants to eat different food.
(3)Shams B.
I've been to many an Asian buffet in my day as well as sushi buffets and I have to say this place isn't in my top picks or go to spots. They have a decent choice of sushi, sashimi and nigiri rolls, but you never know how long they've been out so it's hit and miss. For example, I went through the buffet twice and the first run had cold shrimp tempura while the second time was burning hot, fresh out of the fryer. If you're in the area and want to go, then hit it up. If time and gas aren't an issue then hit up Sushi Yaa in Arlington. It's hands down my favorite sushi buffet and they're $10 all day, every day.
(3)Jerry Y.
I used to go here at lunch and it was okay. However the last two times I went there (both on Friday) I've spent the weekend loitering around the bathrooms in my house. I had a co-worker who claimed he got worms eating here, and I think I believe him. Haven't been back in several months... don't plan to.
(2)Ya Lun W.
Tokyo One (big bro of Osaka in Plano) is one of the better place b/c of their variety + choices it a buffet nevertheless the fresh/authenticness is ok but not 100% there. lunch time price is about $17 and night time $25 if you're an sushi enthusiast I'd just recommend you to go to a nice Japanese restaurant and spend $30 but if you are really hungry and want to try a little of everything Tokyo one is the place for you they have many rolls to choose from but most are based on california roll ... with accessories and there's always salmon, tuna, white tuna for sashima., there're also fried tampuras, salads, hibachi grill, some chinese dishes, steamed eggs, some cold appetizer dishes and udon and soba soup noodles cook as you ordered........free green tea or red bean or mango ice cream for dessert =) they have a long history of being the only Japanese buffet restaurant in Addison, so the quality is better than your regular buffet type of place if you have a huge appetite and want to try a bit of everything and nothing too authentic or exotic this is your pick when you're around Addison area
(3)Jonathan W.
Tough one... 4 stars. This is a tough one for me because I grew up in Japan, and my first teppanyaki experiences were as a child... creating some pretty "WOW" memories in my mind. But here's to relativity. I'm a big kid now and we're in Dallas, Texas. Atmosphere: Just what it should be. Service: Really no complaints here... I mean when you go out for Teppanyaki do you really pay attention to the service? Bar: Sufficient... a good waiting ground while they are preparing your table. My wife loves of the foo-foo girly frozen drinks they offer. Happy wife = Happy me! Food: The food is par. It could definately be better, but definately nothing to complain about. I would say skip the Kobe here. If you going to pay for Kobe beef, order it at a nice steak house. You'll find their other offerings just as enjoyable for half the price. Chefs: Our first chef was great... awesome show, knew all the tricks. On our second visit our chef looked kinda funny... which starded our opening table chatter with "De donde eres?" coming from a young latina seated across from us. It was really funny to hear "I'm Japaneese" with a Mexican accent. His tricks were not quite up to snuff, however he really did run away with the comedy, and to be honest... OK flip the spatula, spin the egg, set the grill on fire, onion volcano, "choo-choo" lemon in the hat... I mean how many times can you really be "wowed" by that. So the comedy act was very welcome in the end. This initial disappointment turned refreshingly entertaining pushed me from 3 stars to 4. My children are old enough now to finally experience teppanyaki, and of the 3 places we've tried. Tokyo One get's my vote.
(4)Mike D.
So many choices and not big enough stomach. We went as a group of five and it took a little long to get a table at 1930 on a Saturday. Tempura is outstanding and Sushi is very good for a buffet. The crab legs were a little tough and inconsistent but over good. A very good choice of sauces for all. They even had Lamb Chops! The fresh fruit and desserts were good. It's expensive at $27 a plate but you get a great meal!
(4)Craig N.
Don't go here... We decided as a big family (3 families in all) to visit this restaurant since we haven't been in a while. The food is not all that great. Hot foods sitting under the heat lamps too long and getting hard. Sushi was ok for a sushi restaurant. Service (namely the owner) was terrible. We asked the owner to heat up the dungeness crabs and she said she didn't want to be bothered and to ask our waitress. When the waitress brought us the check, she told us she didn't want to charge us for our babies, but her owner forced her to. Even my baby who is under 2 years of age, she had to charge $5. Who does that? Not only am I going to tell all my friends but am urging anybody else to stay away. There are plenty of other sushi buffets in town that are far superior (Japan House is good!!) On top of that, the parking was also far away from the entrance and in this Texas heat is no fun especially if you need to carry a baby.
(1)Ruby D.
Good service, good sushi, fresh seafoods, excellent dessert and awesome hibachi. I love coming here every now and then.
(4)Linh V.
My friends and I went to this restaurant on Labor day around 1:30 pm, after waiting about 20 mins we finally got our table. But most of food was gone and those dishes didn't get refill except some tempura or salad. Nothing special with the food, just sashimi but some of them still frozen when we ate. I got the soup with most of topping were gone. Although less than $20 is cheap for the seafood buffet, the food quality here doesn't worth that price.
(2)H C.
This place is good for a sushi buffet, but it does not serve traditional japanese sushi quality. Mainly for consumers who like volume over quality.
(3)Amy W.
I grew up in Dallas, TX and basically grew up at Tokyo One. My family and I came here all the time. It truly is the best Japanese buffet I've ever been to this day. Well, in the U.S. anyways. Everytime I go back to this day, they add more items to their already enormous selection. Lots of different rolls, sushi and sashimi to choose from. I typically like to go during dinner, although lunch is cheaper for about the same selection. However, they have yellowtail at dinner!! My fave!! You can ask the sushi chefs behind the counter to make hand rolls for you. Any kind you want. More favorites at the hot food area are chawanmushi, baked green mussels and shrimp fried rice (I know, but good fried rice is worth mentioning.). Lots of tempuras to choose from: shrimp, sweet potato, etc. My brother loves the teppanyaki station. Choose whatever meats and veggies you want and they'll stir fry it up for you! The noodle soup station is also awesome! I love having the freedom to choose exactly what I want in my noodle soup including the flavor of the soup! Ok, and here' the crazy part. They also have hot pot! I know!! Talk about having everything. So typically, my family would get a couple plates of the sushi, etc. and then ask the server to set up the hot pot at our table. They have all the ingredients from green onions, tomatoes, napa cabbage to shrimp, taro, corn, thinly sliced beef, pork, EVERYTHING! And of course I never leave without having their most awesome creme brulee!!! It really is the best I've had!! You can also ask the server for red bean and green tea ice cream all included. The lesson here is wear loose fitting clothes when you go and happy eating!
(4)Candy S.
Delicious, high quality buffet. Definitely worth the drive out to Addison. Lots of variety here - hibachi grill, various sushi, and my personal favorite - noodle soup bar. Also - tons of seafood. I haven't even gotten to the dessert.. Just come and try it for yourself, you'll see.
(5)Eugene L.
I love you Tokyo One. Sushi/sashimi/crab legs/seafood fix is always fulfilled. I only go during prime time dinners (fridays and saturdays) and I recommend you do the same as well.
(5)Tricia C.
So I for one avoid Chinese and sushi buffets like the plague. Quality is WAY more important to me than quantity, especially when the quality can be so horrifically bad at some of these places. But I imagine Tokyo One is about as good as it gets. Very clean, VERY nice and helpful service, and a HUGE variety of food. Sushi rolls, nigiri, and sashimi, cold salads, custom udon soups, make your own mongolian bbq, tons of fresh seafood and veggies for a tableside hotpot, dungeness crab, two types of snow crab (I think-cold and steamed with garlic butter flavor), cocktail shrimp, even a fairly decent creme brulee. Oh, and they had lamb chops and a few other american foods, and stuff like pasta and fried rice. I'm not sure what more you could ask for, other than fine japanese restaurant quality food. It's not great but it's certainly better than you would expect. So far the best AYCE crab legs I've had in the Dallas area but I'm still hoping there's better somewhere.
(4)Dontrel J.
I really like this place as far as Japanese buffets go and I would go there more often if it weren't so expensive to go for dinner time.
(5)Preston T.
My mom wanted to come here for her birthday. I stand by my original review. The sushi here is ho-hum but the hot food is delicious! I LOVE the shrimp fried-rice! Ok, before you start rolling your eyes, let me first tell you that I'm Chinese and surrounded by fried-rice all the time. So yes, when I say the fried-rice here is good, you better believe it's DAMN good. Lol. They changed the marinade on the Korean short ribs. They used to marinade it with the Kalbi marinade like in Korean restaurants. They now use some kind of citrus marinade. You can taste oranges. It's weird, but still all right. I liked it better before, though. The tempura batter is too thick and doughy, not light and crisp like it should be. The sashimi was either still kind of frozen or warm and swimming in mayo sauce. Ew. The rolls are all right, but Osaka Sushi has better variety. Still, I'd come here for lunch just for the fried rice, mushrooms, and short ribs. A terrific value for those of us who want sushi and other dishes for cheap.
(3)Victor E.
This was one of the worst buffets I have ever experienced. The sushi was nothing spectacular. The rest of the buffet had maybe one good item to eat. The desert was horrible. The only reason for the two stars is the atmosphere and service. The food overall was just terrible.
(2)Sidney H.
First of all, this place is very generous with their fish. The sashimi pieces are like mini-slabs, although their nigiri and sushi roll selections could be a LOT more varied and creative. Tokyo One does however offer a numerous assortment of other food like chicken curry, spicy raw clam salad, raw mussels, tempura, and a pho/soup bar. The layout of the place is spacious with a long, general dining area. And a smaller, more intimate, area on the other side of the sushi bar. The waitstaff sometimes shoot eye lasers at you while you're eating. The service is very good overall. But I do hate that they bring you your check without asking first. [Insert Run-On Sentence Here] Their lunch buffet is such a great deal that I'm hesitant to go during their considerably more expensive dinner hours out of fear of being disappointed. Oh yeah. It's best to go relatively early, cause this place gets packed FAST. Also I'm usually hungry again an hour after leaving this place.
(3)Jason C.
I typically try to avoid buffets, however when traveling I will give all buffet a chance. So when I was in Dallas visiting, my friend took me here. At first, I had reservation about sushi buffet - lack of turn over (food staying out longer then necessary), hard rice, etc. We went there for lunch, got seated and ordered our drinks. My strategy at any buffet is to walk around and see what stuff they have before I grab the plate. The lay out was simple. The center island had all the cold food, expect for one end - it was udon/noodles and soups. Most of the center had sushi and sashimi. They had salad, kimchi, etc. as well. They also had dessert table, shabu-shabu table and finally one table for hot foods - fried food to grilled food. Now, I was ready. Got my plate, got my favorite rolls (i took one of each since they had a lot of them), then grabbed lot of the sashimi, especially tuna. I expected some of the fish to be old, sitting around, etc., but the fish was good. The rice was good too, it wasn't sitting around waiting. It helped that it was the weekend, so lot of folks were there eating. The Udon was okay, I had better, Todai Udon was better and I'm not Todai fan! We then ordered the shabu shabu, we grabbed what we wanted to put and enjoyed the warm broth, along with cooked food items. I also got lot of the kalbi (short ribs), this was good, so I would highly recommend this when and if you visit. Like I said, I have thing about sushi buffets, but I'll visit this place again when I'm out there. Give it a try!
(4)Khuyen N.
This place isn't good at before. The waiter, waitress judge people by how you dress up, and they treat you differently.I wore my college shirt to there, and they thought a student not gonna tip or something. .... I experienced that they treat me not like the time before.
(2)Kai S.
All you can eat gourmet sushi. Need I say more? Ok. De. Lish. Us. Every imaginable variety of sushi, and then some. Other seafood and asian entree items, too. Giant selection/varity as well. Huge dessert section (again, fancy stuff, not your ordinary Chinese hole-in-the-wall buffet). The feel of the place is definitely on the ritzy side, but attire doesn't have to be formal by any means. The price is high, but then again, check the place out and you'll understand why. I've been twice and would go again, definitely!
(5)Amanda H.
This is my go to place for my birthday, my boyfriends birthday, and anyone else that tells me it's their birthday! I just like having excuses to eat here. This is the best sushi I have had at a buffet. If you go for dinner they have all you can eat crab legs!!! That is the main attraction for me because it is my favorite food they aren't the best I've ever had but they are all you can eat so I don't complain. Shrimp tempura is delicious! Their dessert is divine, creme brulee, fresh fruit, chocolate covered strawberries, and don't forget about their ice cream at the end because it is amazing! I always get the mango but they have green tea, red bean, chocolate, and vanilla. Also if it is someones birthday print out the coupon they have online, they'll give you a little gift and cake! So cute!
(4)Felix H.
Great quality food. This place rivals any Vegas buffet I've ever been to...and I found it in Addison TX. Go figure.
(4)Peter C.
Came here for dinner and I believe the price went up a few dollars since the last time I came. No complaints here though, I did eat my money's worth! And just to put it on record, this is the BEST Tokyo One location I have been too. I'm from Houston and been to the two locations here in town but it does not compare to the Dallas (Belt Line) location. Sushi chefs did a awesome job on sushi presentation, all rolls and pieces were cut to perfection. The kitchen food was also a plus, hibachi section is a must have as well, and lastly make sure to save room for ice cream. Your server will offer you flavors of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, or green tea. I asked for all 4 flavors once but they said no. I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE UP! Sooner or later, someone will say yes to me!
(5)Lily M.
The buffet here is nothing to brag about, but for the price you can eat as much as you want of sushi, hot and cold food, crabs, and a mini dessert bar. As for the sushi, it seemed cool to eat. The chef continued to bring fresh sushi out around the clock, so I felt safe to consume. I'm not a fan of the cold bar so I stuck with hot dishes. The fried rice tastes pretty good, but it is not the best. The salmon was ok, noodles..ok, crabs...good enough. Overall, I've had way better japanese, but for what it's worth, I may come back here if I am out of other places to go.
(3)Whitney W.
they used to have much better quality food than now, I guess it's due to the oil leak or something, but the crab legs are still huge! Not that cheap to eat at night though. Oh, the cream brulée is awesome there!
(3)Paul S.
Sushi buffet. Can be hit or miss with the quality. Inconsistent food quality, well trained staff.
(2)Terry W.
Great sushi buffet. This is a great place for sushi and sashimi in quantity. They also have crab legs and raw oysters most of the time. These crab legs are, with rare exception, very good. We always ask to be in Joanna's section as she is great!
(4)Derek L.
Alright, I'll say that the positive reviews on this place got me in the front door. Everything looked like this place was going to deliver. The food looked great, the inside of the restaurant looked great, but the food really failed to deliver. The sushi rolls were the best part, and they were small, dry, and bland. The sashimi looked great and didn't taste fresh at all. Even the fruit, which i was certain would be hard to mess up, was tough and not very ripe. This place gets an A for presentation and an F for ultimate delivery. Perhaps I went there on a off day, but I don't think I'll be going back there anytime soon.
(1)Jennifer G.
In all fairness - I don't eat sushi. I went to Tokyo one because they also offer hot food and that is all my review is based on. I went for lunch this week because I was feeling Japanese and it wasn't hibachi dinner night with the girls yet. It was set up as a buffet (i think its like this all the time?) and one and a half sides were sushi -another side was hot food, there was a small salad area, a long side of prepared salads (almost everything had seafood in it) a small soup area, and a dessert area. The service was amazing. My servers and the hostess checked on me many many times and they seemed to really care if I had a good meal. The downside - the food sucked and they were so nice I didn't want to tell them. I wasn't sure if the food wasn't up to par or if my standards were too high or if I just didn't like it, but almost everything I tried was barely edible (not to mention there were only about 5 dishes I could eat - even the rice was shrimp fried rice. I suppose that's what I get for going to a sushi place when I don't eat seafood. the chicken teriyaki at the hot food area was really grisly not high quality chicken, the beef kabobs were so tough I couldn't bite through them, the hibachi I had them make for me had a weird flavor (and I eat alot of hibachi so I know what it normally tastes like). My favorite part of this meal was the adorable little dessert cakes and the vanilla ice cream they gave me for dessert - and the service. I'd go here if you're a sushi fan - they looked to have a lot of variety. I was extra sad when I paid $20 for this lunch I barely ate.
(2)Anthony L.
I'm not a fan of all you can eat sushi place since they lack presentation and taste. Sushi should be for people who really knows how to eat sushi. But I still like tokyo one because of their shabu shabu and sashimi plates! oh and also for their udon noodles. yum... I know I'll be going there with bunch of my friends for sure because they all like it there too.
(3)Andy P.
Sushi and buffet aren't supposed to go together but Tokyo One does a decent job. The quality of the fish and sushi are above average as are the hot dishes. Again, this is a buffet, don't expect amazingly awesome fish and roll creations. They do have a lot of variety including: seafood salads, sashimi, rolls, tempura, noodles, grilled meat etc. The buffet price includes shabu shabu and on weekend nights they have crab legs (cold, but you can boil them at your table if you want). I didn't try any dessert but my wife said the creme brulee was good as well as the fresh fruit. Service was quick, although weird at times, but very good.
(4)Steve M.
I've been eating here since 2000 when they used to have a carving station with prime rib even during lunch. Ever since then the quality of the food has been slowly slipping. On my last trip a week ago for lunch I really questioned why do I even bother with the sushi/sashimi selections at this place anymore? There's been a steady growth in the number of rolls of questionable pedigree but now the sushi and sashimi is at an all time low in quality and selection. It was pretty disappointing over all. However, I'm still giving them three stars since it's not terrible and I know they can do better.
(3)John H.
One of my favorites for buffet seafood. You can go there for lunch, but there is a greater variety for dinner.
(4)Jess A.
This place is a roller-coaster of quality; it goes up and down, up and down. Your experience will entirely depend on where in the cycle you step on and ride. I've gone to Tokyo one for many years (since 2000). Obviously, I've had some good visits, since I keep coming back, but there's been about as many unimpressive ones, too. It seems like every few years, they seem to slump into a rut of mediocre food -- the sushi gets made sloppy, the hot line gets poorly tended and/or left out too long, etc. But, then it gets turned around and everything is fine for a while. However, some things are reliably good: tempura (shrimp and veggies), ramen, inarisushi, creme brulee (swoon!) and flan.
(3)Stephanie L.
I came in here with low expectations.. because buffets are never good (except for Fogo de Chao, they're just awesome). With my low expectations, I was not disappointed. The food was not all Japanese, which really annoyed me.. Tokyo is Japanese yeah? They had a lot of Chinese - Korean - Taiwanese dishes that did not fit in. Even though some Americans are still ignorant of Asian culture, I'd like to see restaurants push forth the cultural differences for once. Instead of "confirming" these stupid and ridiculous mix ups. Anyways, the sushi was disgusting and dry.. and udon tasted like crap. Sadly, the things I enjoyed here were not even worth the bill I had to pay in the end.. (and they weren't even Japanese cuisine.) If you want to get your money's worth, don't go here.. but if you want to fill up on crappy "Asian" cuisine go for it. (I'd suggest taking a few tums before going though.)
(2)Scot D.
As far as Japanese Buffets go, I just like Tokyo One I like it when the manager or owner comes by to chit chat and shows true concern for her business. Tonight, the Sushi was exceptionally good. I liked the expanded Salad Bar and of course..I always eat too much. I suggest you come real hungry so you can try everything at least twice..not three times like I did. The only down side is the price, but , hey, I figured I ate about $100 worth of sushi so I will call it a draw. I will be back...maybe with a crowd. My suggestion...get there early to get a good seat and parking spot.
(4)David M.
I hate buffets as much as any of you but when I come to Dallas, I never skip this place and I mean NEVER. Everything is extremely fresh and the assortment is unbelievable. And for those of you that think pigging out is a requirement at a buffet, you do not have to. I just came back after eating only some udon noodle soup, some really good kimchee, some sashimi and a little bit of sushi. Did I stuff myself? Absolutely NOT. Did I love it? A big YES! The wait staff is incredible and the owner really cares.
(5)Valerie L.
So I have been here twice. The first time the food was okay and tasted good but it wasn't amazing. The second time was horrible. There were flies, actually flies, hovering around the food! That's disgusting. The sushi tasted kinda mushy and plain. I don't think I should be paying $30 per person for sushi that is disgusting. I want my worth of sushi. The atmosphere is what you would expect for a restaurant, loud but not too loud. This didn't bug me because I love to talk and when I eat I need a loud place. So I'll probably going to Osaka from now on and you would only expect me here if they step up their game.
(2)Shay D.
This is a very good seafood buffet. I did not eat the sushi because I wasn't in the mood, but my boyfriend ate 3 plates. All the other items were great. The oysters were okay,(the item I always go for) kind of bland but very clean. But the hotpot, soup, salad, hot items were hot and tasty. My only complaint was I think the waitress was hitting on my boyfriend because she came and ask to refill his coke but never bothered to ask me when my cup was empty too. Overall, it was a good experience and we would come back.

I am not really into Japanese food but went there for a celebration get-together; I didnt' pick the location. The chefs and staff were really friendly and helpful; they explained to me how the food was cooked (or uncooked, um, prepared), the ingredients, etc.
(3)Bert S.
Sushi buffets are usually a bad idea, but this place does it right. I usually go on weekend nights with my family and there is good turnover. This place is more Pan-Asian than Japanese, but it is still great. The hot food is great and there is a great variety of desserts.

I'm giving this 3 stars for a dinner location but it would be closer to 4 for lunch. Don't get me wrong, I really liked the variety of the buffet and was pleased with the quality of food provided, however at $43.30 a person (dinner + drink + tip) I think there are better options. Lunch is $15.99 vs. $27.99 for dinner so it is a much better value. I had a good time and enjoyed the food but found the wine list to be lacking (only one Sauvignon Blanc, and it was from California) but not overly expensive ($7 a glass is about average). Service was good and the staff was friendly. I guess my only complaint is the lousy piano music that was playing (I don't understand it!?!?!). I might go back for lunch.

OK, "all you can eat sushi" for under $20???? OH YEAH, I'm a FAN!!! I don't go here often, as you need to be really, REALLY hungry to take full advantage of this place (and price). Still, you'd spend a small fortune going to the "average" sushi restaurant to get all you have to choose from "here" at a reasonable price (again, reasonable for "sushi"). Staff has always been on top of their game and friendly, so for all reasons stated above, "I'm a fan."
(4)Brent M.
Awesome buffet with alot of opitions. Kid friendly but on the pricey side. Worth making it an quarterly family event
(5)Katie G.
Stuff your face sushi buffet for not that much. But, the quality of the sushi reflects in the price & mass amounts of it = only average. They also have cooked food which is a plus for non-sushi eaters. Been there several times. Only one bad experience when I went up there during a holiday and they were charging dinner prices during the lunch hour. Too bad they didn't mention that when I called to verify they were open on that particular holiday. Eh.
(4)Nancy K.
Tokyo One is the only place we go when we want buffet. Selection and quality are great!

Long time customer, but after today I will not go back again. The rolls are decent enough to eat. The sushi and the sashimi have a rough texture. You can tell the fish have been thawed out.. it shouldn't be frozen. I'm not 100% if they did freeze it, but the texture is not great. Miso soup and the custom soups are okay. Vegetable bar is okay - edamame is cold and unsalted, I like mine warm/steamed with sea salt or kosher salt. The hibachi and deep fried items are decent as well. Now, here's where I draw the line. I was standing in line for the grilled items - pork chops, teriyaki chicken, beef tips, sliced beef ribs, etc. The "griller" was crouched behind the cooker. I looked over and he had a tub of meat ON THE GROUND. I'm not sure, but isn't that unsanitary to keep any kind of food 10(+/-) inches from the ground? Also he was using his bare hands to dig around the tub. His hands were hairy. He turns his head to sneeze on the refrigerator door handle. He digs some more through the beef.. he's still crouched and the meat still on the ground. Digging away. When he finishes, he opens the refrigerator door and grabs another tub full of meat and places the other right under the grill. Hmm.. I was grossed out. He didn't even wash his hands. Just wiped with a towel. At least do that in the back and make me think this place is sanitary. I just ate the fried rice and sushi rolls. My dad loves buffets. I'm picky and he's not. He didn't even think it was good. We've been coming here for a long time and it's just not the same anymore. Where's the love gone to?

I like going here occasionally. I have had a couple of bad experiences here, but overall, I still enjoy this buffet. Firstly, there isn't exactly a huge amount of sushi buffets in the Dallas area. This was actually the first one I found. It was also the easiest to find. The others I've located have been harder, having to find out about them through word of mouth mostly. Compared to most of the other sushi buffets in the area, this place is HUGE. And there's not just sushi on the line either. You can get everything from fried tempura to octopus salad to ramen to creme brulee here too. I haven't had a single problem with the waitstaff any of the times that I've been here, regardless of it was a "rush" or not. The owner/manager also goes around table to table to make sure the guests are taken care of. On your birthday, they give you a little gift! The few times that I've had a bad experience here were directly related to the food, and that was probably directly related to the time that we arrived to eat. I guess you have to expect that if you come in and it's extremely slow, the food's not moving off the line very fast and can get stale or just gross. Or if you come in late and they've basically stopped preparing food for the nite and what's out is what's out. Ever had a piece of nigiri where the edges of the fish were dried out? Yeah....not a pleasant experience.
(4)Carlos C.
I hate to admit it, but this place is REALLY GOOD! I try to avoid buffets, but my brother was craving this place. It's not cheap, however the variety is pretty darn good! seriously. The sushi is not comparable to Yutaka or Nobu (5/5 rating) but I would give it a 3.5-4 rating for the freshness and rolls (i am very very strict when I am rating sushi). All and all... I'm happy I went and will go back every now and then. Green tea ice cream was goooooooooooood!
(4)Julie D.
This place is decent if you need a sushi fix. I've been here two to three times and have never been disappointed. The sushi was sufficient in variety and quality. The hot food was a bit disappointing. Some of it seemed like it had been sitting there for quite a while, and I've always been there during high volume times. I've never tried the soup or the hot pot, but I know that it is an option. I got some green tea ice cream for dessert, and the waitress offered me a second helping once I ate the first serving. I declined, but it was nice to know that I could have as much as I wanted. I went once with a friend who is not very discriminative when it comes to food, and I also went with a friend who is a sushi obsessed, Asian food snob a different time, and they were both quite satisfied. So, all three of us liked this place.
(3)Beau F.
Love this place! Very $$$ but worth it!
(4)James G.
Japanese buffet! You can get hotpot too! Crab, sushi, miso, DESSERTS, so many things to enjoy! Many times I've gotten a group discount through their mailing list--groups of 4 get one meal free (buy 3 get fourth free).
(4)Alex L.
Been here on more than one occasion and usually dragged here for family get togethers. The food is OK at best. Nothing really stands out and after awhile, all the flavors start homogenizing. The service is good but how hard can a buffet place be for the waitstaff? I remember coming here some time ago and a couple of our friends were not of age to drink and they still served them without asking for identification. I guess that is called good service for letting them drink. I saw that they updated some of the exterior but inside is where the attention needs to be. The stench of grease not only fills the air but you can almost feel it as well. If you want the same type of food but with better atmosphere and service, go to Osaka Sushi. Same owner, different spot. Go figure.
(3)J C.
I go to Tokyo One for lunch often, and you can get insanely full on all kinds of sushi for a good price. The staff is really friendly and attentive, and your drink will always be full. The lunch buffet comes with sushi and a hot bar with things like short ribs and tempura, and there is a good selection of Japanese salads. As far as the sushi goes, I'm not picky and I think its pretty good, but some of my friends who have gone have said that is not the best they've ever had, but worth the price and what you get. The buffet comes with free ice cream at the end, try the green tea flavor!
(4)Eden L.
Food is okay but service is horrible. There were more than 10 tables for 2 servers. The server NEVER asked if we are doing OK. I had to walked to him to ask for things. I think he was absolutely rude. The owner/mananger lady seemed to be only friendly to non-Asian tables. If you don't care about the service, it's OK to go for it, but you are paying more than 20 bucks or 30 for weekends, i think you should be better treated. Of course, food is probably loaded with MSG, you will get super thirsty afterwards....but that's what you would expect from Asian buffet restaurants anyways I guess...
(2)Shari S.
I am NO Sushi expert but I HAVE worked in a sushi restaurant so I am a bit more knowledgeable than the average person about the menu. My husband and I were craving sushi and because we are not too familiar with many sushi restaurants in Dallas quite yet, I did remember Tokyo 1 in Addison. Service was exceptional. This is what you should expect to get from a sushi restaurant. (we've gone 4 times now) Every time we go our server is attentive and nice. Both my husband and I have worked in the service industry and believe it or not folks, if you're nice to your server you have a pretty good chance of getting the best service and bang for your buck. I drink SOO much water and these poor waitresses and waiters are so GREAT at refilling these tiny tiny glasses! LMAO. We used to go see JoAnn and sit in her section but apparently she no longer works there and we've had LiLi who is sweet and also very good! Enough about the service, now about the menu: I have to admit, after working for someone who makes your sushi as you order it instead of a buffet, which tends to have a bad rep anyway, I had a biased opinion because WHO KNOWS how long it has been sitting there. And with raw fish, you don't want to take your chances. BUT- I was wrong, they make it continuously right in front of you and set the fish on ice blocks which is what they sit on, in packages, in a fridge. SO either way- it's all the same. Plus the variety you get for the endless amount of sashimi for the price is AMAZING. PEOPLE- We are in Dallas, Texas. Do you see an ocean near by? NO. Stop asking if it's fresh or frozen. It's as fresh as it gets for Dallas. AND it is shipped in and at some point HAS to be frozen- get over it. (you're still going to eat it regardless just as long as they keep telling you it's "fresh". There's a good chance it's been in packaging for at least 2-3 days) ENDLESS DESSERT. Who doesn't love that!
(5)Bonnie M.
The only place I go for Sushi Buffett! Fresh sashimi, good service, good shabu-shabu, good teppanyaki... YUM!
(5)Franklin C.
Great place to eat if you like variety. Sure the name is Tokyo One, but with a Mongolian grill, Kim Chi, and Korean Spare Ribs, you get a little taste of all of Asia. The different seafood selections are nice and the service is wonderful. We go for dinner and the price is really a good value as well.
(5)Phillip W.
I gave it a 3, but its really a 3.5, but yelp wont let me put that. Let me start out by saying that I am not a huge buffet fan, theres alot of problems associated with buffets - especially sushi ones - if theres not alot of turnover, the fish can sit out there for a long time and not be fresh, also, buffet food quality tends to be lower. but, thats not really the case at tokyo one. The food is all pretty decent quality, and pretty tasty. There are pretty good maki rolls, but not a huge variety. I wish there was more. The service was very good, whenever I went off to get more food, my old plates full of wasted food would be gone. I really did not feel good about all the wasted food, but that is the nature of buffets/my fault a little bit. The only reason it didnt get more stars, is because its a little bit on the pricey side (i went for dinner, i think lunch is cheaper)
(3)Susan S.
I love this place!! My parents really enjoy the sushi.. they have just a great big middle section where its nothing but sushi.. take about sushi heaven for my parents!! I did get to scarf down some cali rolls.. not bad at all.. had better but hey it was still yummy!! They did offer a good selection in their regular buffet.. I fell in LOVE LOVE LOVE for their tempura shrimp.. man I wish I had one now!! They do fried them fresh..and they do go quick..The hibachi was working heavily that Saturday but manage to get so good stir fry noodles! They have a few selection on soup...and they have an okay dessert area.. but I'm usually to full to even look at it.. We did get to enjoy their hot pot.. we got to do it ourselves..it was decent but wish they offer more for the hot pot.
(4)Christie P.
I've been here twice for lunch ( only because coworker picked the place) and will not go back. Expensive and nothing special about the sushi.
(2)Rick D.
I try to visit here every time I am in Dallas for work. The sushi buffet is fresh, varied and I enjoy being able to try a little bit of everything when I am there. I can usually blaze through $60 or more in a regular sushi place but I can come here and get as much as I can handle for $28. Umm, score!! Their hot offerings are great as well. Lamb, chicken, shrimp, soups and other finger foods. Yeah, they arent always all Japanese, but they are pretty good nonetheless. The desserts are good as well, but their Creme Brulee is always exceptional. I just wish they would put more into each serving but that is the great part about a buffet.. you can go and get more of it! The server we had last night was phenomenal and really stayed on top of things. When my salesman went to get crab legs he heard him say he was going and got him shell crackers and drawn butter before he even got back to the table. He kept our drinks filled and even got us hot cloths to wipe our hands after our crab leg slaughter. It may not be the best sushi, but its not the worst and I enjoy the variety offered here and for the price they are charging you cannot beat it.
(4)HP W.
With the recommendation of others below on Yelp, I decided to give this place a chance. I was really excited about it but was disappointed when I got there. I thought there were supposed to be over 40 different sushi, but most of it looked the same. Don't get me wrong, the food was very fresh, but I just don't think it had the selection I got at Onami in California. My husband seemed to have a different response and said he really enjoyed it. Maybe my experience would be different if I had dinner instead of lunch (where they serve crab legs).
(3)Francesca L.
I agree with Frank. Tokyo One is a good selection, even for those who think they don't like Japanese food! Selection arrays from noodles, you choose the noodle (udon, or different kinds of ramen) and which meats and veg you want. Also a teppanyaki station (where you choose meats, veg, and it's cooked on the open grill). There's also tempura, sushi, and meats, fish, rice, and salads. Dessert are little cakes and mini creme brulees plus fruit or you can have green tea, mango, vanilla, or red bean ice cream. Their red bean isn't very good though. Lunch is much cheaper, and slighty less to choose from, but still tasty. Remember though that you don't go here for quality, you go for quantity!
(3)Kristine M.
I've been visiting Tokyo One in Addison for several years now and have yet to have a bad visit. They have a very good selection of sushi rolls and sashimi. Their salmon sashimi is always delicious with just the right amount of marbling. They also have this mixed sashimi salad which is often tossed in a creamy honey mustard dressing or cream cheese dressing as it was today. Their selection of hot foods are great especially if you like baked mussels, baked oysters, teriyaki, and tempura. Their dessert bar is pretty decent, offering a selection of fresh fruits cakes, and sometimes custards. I highly recommend the creme brulee which always has a generous crust of caramelized sugar. But if you can't find anything at the dessert bar that suits your fancy, ask for a bowl of green tea ice cream or red bean ice cream. It's fantastic also.
(4)Rima P.
It's a buffet so that should say enough. If you want good quality sushi, this is not the place to go.
(3)Dorly C.
Best Sushi Buffet in town. Quality sushi that you just won't find in the hundreds of sushi restaurants that have popped up overnight. I really recommend it for first-time sushi eaters. I bring my friends who claim to "hate" sushi and the display of the items let them try things at their own pace. Always ask for the green tea ice cream for dessert. If concerned about the price, I would go for lunch during the week.
(5)Tom W.
I was looking for a buffet that served all you can eat crab legs and stumbled upon Tokyo One. I personally am not a fan of sushi, but the buffet had way more to offer than just uncooked fish. Hibachi steak, short ribs, chicken, shrimp, fried rice, edamame, shrimp cocktail, crab legs, a noodle/soup station, delicious fresh fruit, and awesome desserts. My only complaint is that the crab legs are served cold. I prefer hot steamed crab legs, but given the quality of the crab, it wasn't a big deal. I was disappointed that there was no hot butter at the buffet, nor were there nut crackers for the claws... but to my delight the waiter saw that I had crablegs and brought the crackers and asked if I would like hot butter. I tried the desserts and didn't expect much... typically buffet desserts are flavorless and a waste of time, but all-you-can-eat creme brulee, who could pass that up? The other desserts were really good as well, so good that I overdid it. Then the waiter comes by asking if we wanted ice cream... I couldn't pass it up. I had the green tea and my daughter had the mango sorbet, both were great. I think it's about $28 for adults and $14 for kids, so it can be a bit pricey for a casual meal, but if you like sushi and japanese food, you can get your money's worth here.
(4)Roland M.
pig out city --- sushi is not the greatest - but if that's what you are looking for - go elsewhere - the noodle bar and the "cooked" area is where its at. the Tempura alone keeps me coming back here. But the Grilled Salmon Belly is the pearl in this place. Talk about rich and fatty. So GOOD! I always start slow - sashimi, maybe some rolls and then BAM! Like most reviews - it is not the best quality but less that $20 for soooo much food for lunch is a plus. Beats any pseudo-Chinese buffet around. If you have nothing planned for later in the day - go here Load up and fight the nods when you get back to the office! The desserts are ok too, but I am always too full to try them all.
(4)Navin A.
Nice place if you have some extra cash to blow at the $28 dinner buffet. The rolls were ok, too much rice like most buffet places, when in doubt opt for the sashimi instead. Most people came for the all you can eat crab legs which had to be replenished non stop. The sushi was above average but they did have a nice selection. The food was fresh since there was a huge crowd there. The hot dishes were so so, Korean short ribs, teriyaki chicken, grilled crab, Japanese fried rice which I have never been a big fan of. They also have a small hibachi or Mongolian grill if you want to call it with meats, fish and some other stuff. You can also get a hot pot, where they bring a broth to your table and you can pick out your own veggies, meats and seafood and you cook it at your table. A lot of Asian families where doing it this particular night. The Noodle soup selection was nice, you tell the cook which one of the four you would like and they make it right in front of you, afterwards you get to add your own condiments to it. Service was ok, only had my drink refilled 3 times during the 1 hr of glutton punishment I put on myself. The dessert bar even though looked delicious, I can't say I was a big fan of the cakes and pastries. The blueberry mouse cake was more like a tasteless sponge and the mango cheese cake was disgusting. I took several trips back though for the freshly cut pineapple. It was very refreshing. Right now this place is on my once maybe every 3 months list. They make a good effort and for some of you it might be a bargain, unfortunately it is not a Todai, which the closest one is in Las Vegas.
(3)Van H.
Just had birthday lunch here. My family and I have been patrons for many years here. Decided to do lunch on a saturday at 12p. Perfect time to show up for cause they open at 1130a and the place wasn't packed yet, 30minutes later though was a different story. I have always had a great experience here. Specifically during todays visit the waitstaff was very attentive, quick to fill drinks almost empty and also to pick up empty plates from the table. The variety of food in the buffet is extensive- plenty of different sushi rolls, sashimi as well as cooked foods and vegetarian platters. We love this place and will always come back.
(4)Anabel V.
I must admit I was not expecting great things from this place. But is pretty awesome. Theire dessert bar O M G, dessert heaven and yes like everyone else the creme brulee is good (providing its from a buffet). Their desserts include chocolate covered strawberries, creme brulee, mousses, etc. Their sushi is your typical rolls they did a couple specialty ones/ They had quite a bit of seafood and they have an area for diff meats. Unlike other i didnt particularly care for the gree tea ice cream but mango (i think it was mango) sorbet was good.
(4)Christine H.
my family and i were here this past weekend and the service was terrible. After we had waited for twenty minutes, they told us since one of the member in our party was not present they were not able to sit us and gave our table away! after I approached the manager about he issue he made up some lame excuse and shush me away. if my mother had not insisted on eating there I would have walked away! what a disappointment!
(2)Jennifer D.
I've been to many buffets and still have not found that "gggrrrreat" satisfaction YET. This one was okay, I guess. I don't eat the raw stuff at all, but I do enjoy the California Rolls and other cooked rolls. I was kind of disappointed that they did not have much of the "grilled" stuff at all. I mean, the restaurant is "Sushi & Grill", not "mostly sushi and some grill"... Based on what I ate, I'm giving this place 2.5 stars. I guess it would be a great place if you know how to eat all the "real" sushi stuff. I felt like the customer service was a bit weird. The other thing that I noticed was that, for some reason, asians were on one side and other races were on the other... ??? I mean, what is all that about??? I heard that lunch during weekdays is cheap. I went for dinner for Father's Day and, oh man, I did not felt like it was worth the price!! Maybe I'll go for lunch when I get the chance some time.
(3)Ed A.
Came here as a bday Meal and it's not a bad place but it's too pricey for what they have to offer. The sushi selection was not much to choose from but it didn't lack in taste it was actually pretty damn good. The deserts were not bad but not fresh also the seating was really crammed just to make an extra buck but it's not comfortable while a part of the chair hits the carpet and the other is on the walking Aile blocking the staff from working. the food selection was OK but felt more like a basic buffet and nothing classy with a price tag of $25 a head just to eat at a place like this you would think they could make it look something with class. allot of the food selection was not too good i tried something with corn and shrimp which i don't recommend. but they did have a good section of beef which a liked allot. this is nice place i don't want to Dis it but the price to eat here is crazy its not worth paying that much for simple basic sushi. but the waitress were pretty damn hot.
(2)Tina P.
As a general rule, I always eat some place at least twice before writing a review. It's been a while since I came back here....I think it got a bit worse. Worse as in....the food, while still remotely the same, decreased a bit in quality. With that said however, I would definitely return given the chance! I love being able to eat whatever I want within whatever quantities I want and you get that here. Ramen, sushi, hot pot, crab legs, stir fried meats.... I can only rate what I had, so starting from there: Sushi-Skipped the generic california rolls and derivatives. I had one spicy tuna roll just to test the quality of the rice, and from what I tasted it was pretty good, maybe like your average to sub par sushi one would expect to get at Zenna's or something....so if you like Zenna's this place is it. Just don't expect Nobu sushi or the like. Rice was soft, rolls were kinda large and chunky and falling apart. Sashimi/raw fish- I'm a testimony that this place has grade A sanitation because with all the amounts of raw fish I ate, if there were a .01% chance of food poisoning I would've gotten it. This is 95% of what all I ate here! Just cuts and cuts of tuna, salmon, smoked salmon dipped in soy sauce and wasabi. So yummy. Meat was buttery smooth. My only complaint is that it was cut into slabs that were a bit too lopsided and big for my liking...I don't want to think I'm biting down into a whole fish, that's kinda gross. Ramen- 4 different kinds, the novelty is fun, the taste is pretty good too. I tried the green tea (slight bitter taste but nothing that says green tea), thai (broth was so flavorful and tangy, and came with crab legs!) and the soy sauce (basically...like soy sauce...but not as salty) Came with the spirl-y fish cake thing, and self serve seaweed, quail eggs, random condiments to make it look nice. I love ramen, but I wouldn't fill up on this. Hotpot-You have to ask for this. Ultimately, I think this is what makes Tokyo one a winner. Hotpot, sashimi, ramen, and asian food all in one sitting?! sure it's not "authentic" but food snobs can go elsewhere because where else can I have sushi and hotpot at the same time? It's great, you can put king crab legs in them, seafood, whatever you want! and the broth is pretty good and sweet too. Other food: Other food you can just get at any cheap chinese buffet so why waste your money? It's good quality: tempura, lamb racks, grilled meats, raw oysters, dumplings, noodles, fried rice, squid salad, curry chicken to name a few. I didn't try a lot but the things I did try were pretty good! There's a wide selection, so for the more hesitant picky eaters there is something. Dessert: Falls kinda flat here. Only three things were good: the gigantic chocolate covered strawberries, the ice cream, and the creme brulee. The creme brule was SOOO good. Get it over the flan. It tastes like what the flan should be like, smooth, rich, decadent and vanilla-y. The panna cotta is so funky tasting, like coconut jello. All the baked goods were disappointing. They don't want you wasting food so they cut it into microscopic pieces. Which is ironic cause it tasted pretty cheap so of all the things they can afford to waste it would be that. Mousse cake is dry and tastes like...dried up jello on dried up cake. Ick. We did have a birthday, and they offered us this beautiful gorgeous......mousse cake. Well at least it was beautiful. Get the ice cream!! Especially the green tea and red bean. The red bean has real red beans in it, and it's so creamy! Service: Perfecttttt. So fast, nice, attentive....and i shall say....submissive? They treat you like royalty, and they smile a lot!! Even the owner came by to wish a happy birthday and offered to sing!! Tip them well :) Also note that you have to request hot pot and ice cream, they bring it out super fast. Best part? Unlike *certain places* -coughomiscough- The servers mind their own business and don't give you stares and sighs for eating too much food!!! Instant win. Overall: Why only three stars? I'm your typical overindulged twenty-something. Give me too much food and everything starts tasting bleh to me. Buffets are not some place you go to for quality....but I think tokyo one is definitely one of the better buffets out there, considering how much of an assortment they put out. For thirty dollars, depending on my mood, I can choose to have one teeny tiny dish at Nobu's or an entire epic meal here...I like variety, so I don't mind too much, when the compromise is a little reduction in quality. Will come back soon!
(3)Nabad B.
Didn't like it. Didn't like it one bit. I don't quite get the 3 1/2 stars rating. Maybe I just picked the wrong day to go there :( ? The hot food was lukewarm and under seasoned. No, wait! It was not seasoned at all. Have you ever had unseasoned seafood? It's awful! I've also had better sushi in my life. This place had a redeeming feature however and that was the service. I so wanted to give them a higher rating just for the treatment we received but to be fair to those of you who are planning on going there, I needed to warn you about the food. Anyway, Based on the other reviews, I will assume I went on the wrong day and maybe I'll give them another try someday.
(2)Ann T N.
Love sushi here! It's pricey tho :(
(4)Caitlin K.
Service depends on time of day. Sometimes better than others. It's pricey. Because their sushi buffet serves real sushi. No getting around it if you want the sushi buffet. I've come with my baby daughter numerous times and had no problems. Never got put in the "loud room" and ignored. Treated very well. They liked my daughter. I love to go during dinner for that dessert bar. All those mini desserts and the creme brulee? ohhhh yeah. It's not for everyone but it's definitely for me.
(4)Robert K.
Good place for a sushi buffet. The quality of the sushi is really fresh, they make the rolls right in front of you and you could also taste the difference too. The place is really spacious, and is very compatible with large groups of people. The workers are really nice too, they are very quick with tasks and are very friendly towards customers. They also have an option for ice cream in the end, with different flavors which comes in a tiny bowl. Although this place may kinda be pricey, it's definitely a place I would come to for my sushi cravings.
(4)Paul B.
This my girls favorite seafood buffet. A little expensive but it is all you can eat. It doesn't do much for me but I'm not a big seafood guy but there is a lot of other stuff to feed on. I wouldn't spend the $30 a person if it was just for me. The crabs are good, sushi is nice and a good selection.

Monday - Friday, 11:00 AM - 2:30 PM Adults: $16.99 Children 6-12: $8.99 5 and under: $3.99 Sunday - Thursday, 5:30 PM - 9:30 PM Adults: $32.99 Children 6-12: $15.99 5 and under: $3.99 Saturday & Sunday, 11:30 AM - 3:00 PM Adults: $22.99 Children 6-12: $11.99 5 and under: $3.99 Friday & Saturday, 5:30 PM - 10:30 PM Adults: $32.99 Children 6-12: $15.99 5 and under: $3.99 I just wanted to post the prices, but if I had anything else to add regarding sushi, their most popular item seems to be salmon and tuna sashimi. Some of the others do not get picked up as quickly, so by the time they reach your plate, into your mouth, it may have been sitting out for 10-20 minutes. Then you'll realize sushi is meant to be eaten right after they're prepared.

Normally the food and service is alright, but it seems that the ramen broth has become really watered down lately... I'll be telling the manager upon my leave tonight. Definitely not what I would expect for what's being paid, and I've been coming here since it used to be $25 per person. I've also noticed that none of the strawberries are ripe. They're mostly pale...

My family show up to this place and for Mothers Day that up the price to $32 a person!!!! Almost $8 extra for Mother's Day. How's that for celebrating Mother's Day- spend more money. This is such a ripoff. We will never be back.
(1)Tomas P.
For the price, you can fulfill your tastebuds! Clean and welcoming atmosphere! Servers are always on top of refills and cleaning tables. I love that they have udon noodles! Perfect for family and friends. I don't recommend you eat fast or drink too much water. They also have green tea ice cream, the best I've ever had! The mango ice cream gets tiring. (You have to request for ice cream).

Yes, it's a buffet. I did not set myself up for ridiculous expectations. Because of this, the sushi selection seemed quite decent for the lunch period. Similar buffets only offer sashimi during dinner hours, so I stuffed myself silly because it's been quite a few years since I've had the opportunity to do so (living in a land-locked state, I do not dare to even try "basic sushi"). The kalbi was also pretty decent; not authentic, but passable. Service was also decent, although I wish they offered paper napkins and wonder why we had to have two servers take turns when it was not even busy. The main reason for the two stars is due to their sad attempt at offering shabu-shabu. Most of the raw ingredients were certainly that, but definitely not fresh. The broth we had to use for it was basically plain water. We couldn't even finish everything, so it was an all-around unpleasant experience. Tokyo One should just focus on sushi, udon, and popular "Chinese"/Asian dishes and maybe that will bring some stars back to their current rating. Also, forget about dessert. I did not try the ice cream, but the miniscule cakes offered all have the same texture and taste, except in different colors. Probably won't ever come here again, but it was better than similar buffets I've been to in Oklahoma.

Been visiting for years. Absolutely a REAL Sushi restaurant instead of a "super" buffet with some sushi. Buffet yes, with some of the prep and holding challenges - but a GO-TO for a sushi fix when I don't feel like sitting at a sushi bar with instant hand made and spending a day's wage. (which I do all the time). I especially like all the salads - kimchi, jelly fish, seaweed, sashimi and a dozen more. Tons of good choices for non-bait eaters and non-Asian eaters. I like the little private room (a big one avail too). We have reserved it about five times for birthdays and a wedding with 20 + ppl. Bill and Julie are the managers to ask for. Price is *** (three star) for dinner with king crab legs and additional sashimi choices. - worth it. - still two thirds less than my $100 meals at the made to order sushi bars (that I LOVE also).
(5)Jay S.
Really has gone downhill lately. If you're coming for sushi go elsewhere, crab legs are ok at best, and service is not consistent. I would say Japan House, Sushi Envy, Sake 2 Me, or Osaka Sushi would be a better place than here. Use to not be that way but that's poor management for you.
(2)Sam K.
If you love sushi this is heaven for you! Unlimited sushi, sashimi, lamp racks,salads,pho soups, desserts etc. it's not a regular buffet but upscale about 45$ each per dinner but it's all worth it. Must give it a try and after the dinner ask for a complimentary green tea ice-cream.everything is fresh they open at 5:30pm
(5)Gina W.
If you like all you can eat sushi, sashimi and other Asian deliciousness you need to check this place out today! I went to Tokyo One for the first time with a group of friends for lunch and so impressed. This place has a huge buffet with a wide variety of sushi, sashimi, they also have a hibachi grill, ramen noodle bar, desserts for a fair price. I feasted on fresh sashimi and sushi rolls followed by tempura shrimp. I didn't particularly care for the tiny sponge cake deserts, but you might, it's all a matter of taste, they have other desserts like crème brulee and fresh fruit. But the complimentary ice cream was quite delicious; I had a scoop of mango, it made my day.
(4)Tanner N.
If you don't like sushi or seafood don't come here. That's really all they have besides meat and rice, or dumpling. Kinda dark here to be honest and very loud. Bathrooms are pretty sanitary.
(4)Michael Q.
Now this is an Asian Buffet!!! All you can eat sushi, raw oysters, snow crab legs, tempura, fried rice, etc...... Great food great dessert and a soup bar like an actual legit soup bar!!! You can order a hotpot to put on your table to make hotpot and I usually put my snow crab legs in there to heat them up and make them even better!! Plus it makes your soup awesome!! It is a buffet so the service is so so but on buffet side it is pretty good. they come and check on you fairly often so it's not that bad. You can also order ice cream from your waiter/waitress I always go for the mango ice cream, the wife goes for the green tea and thats all you can eat as well. You got to get there early though because people line up to wait for the buffet so get there early . Good selection of food and it's pretty top quality too definitely if you got the hunger for it and time to spare go here and fill your tummy!!! It is a little on the pricey end especially if you add the hot pot and definitely add the hot pot!!!
(4)Shahbaaz A.
It's HUGE on the inside and so much variety. I would come for the lunch buffet though and not dinner because I mean how much sushi can one want really? $30 is way too expensive which is why the lunch price makes more sense. Sometimes they have a groupon also. I like all of their ice creams. One of the biggest sushi buffets I have seen, but honestly I think I have had better sushi at other places.
(4)StR I.
We liked this restaurant: the setting, the food. They have a very good choice of sushi, as well as prepared food. I especially liked that the various desserts were cut in small pieces, so that it was easy to try them without much of waste (or over-stuffing the stomach). The dinner buffet is not cheap, but the price is commensurate with the quality and the variety. And they have low prices for small kids, which is very reasonable. However, both I and my companion had diarrhea that same night, and I've never had problems with sushi before. It was the only meal that we had in common that day, so, I'd blame the food. But I would probably give this place another try when in the area.
(4)Emma A.
Over priced place for less than mediocre sushi. I don't recommend this place and have no reason to ever go back. There were bugs on the sushi, the desserts were soggy and the hot food looked like it was sitting under a lamp all day. The hibachi section is alright however it's still over priced and I've had much better for less money.
(1)Eduar S.
As a first timer, I had a good experience. I don't like buffets that much but Tokio has a good variety. Sushi is good and prices are reasonable for weekend brunch.
(4)Ipo K.
Perfect for date night, birthdays, anniversaries... what the heck anything and everything if you don't mind spending the money. You def get what you pay for and it's all worth it. There are options for everyone: raw and cooked sushi, appetizers, a variety of ramen soups, regular dishes, desserts, and the list goes on. The only thing I would recommend as a prerequisite COME HUNGRY especially if you're like me and what to get your money's worth. I've been coming here for over 10 years and I can honestly say it's just as good as it was in the beginning.
(5)Nam N.
If you come here just for the sushi, you will be pleased. The buffet is a little bit lacking though in my opinion. The stir fry options, Mongolian stir fry, and dessert/fruit tables could be improved on. They do offer ice cream too! (Red bean is my favorite.)
(4)Angel P.
All you can eat sushi, sashimi, seafood, and cooked food? Love this place! I know a lot of sushi snobs that hate this place because the food is not fresh enough to their standards but I honestly have never had a problem here. Although their roll selection is pretty small, their sashimi has always been quite fresh ! And with the amount I can eat, I would spend a ton more at any other sushi restaurant than I do here. They also have some very fresh oysters and delicious boiled crab legs! The good pieces do run out pretty quick but they refill the platters fast as well! They also have a variety of udon soups, my favorite is the hot & sour one and you can add the toppings as you wish. Next is the hot food selection. They have shrimp and veggie tempura, lamb chops, fried sea bass (so so good), fried rice, korean short ribs, baked mussels and oysters, gyoza, chicken terriyaki and many more! They also have a selection of veggies and cold shrimp. For dessert, they have delicious crem brulee, flan, and a variety of fruits! This place IS expensive, not gonna lie BUT if you LOVE sashimi, crab legs, oysters, then this place will definitely be worth it because if you can eat as much as I do, the $29 you pay here is nothing compared to how much it would cost anywhere else. Btw, they have coupons online for parties of 6 or more!
(4)David S.
It has been a while and glad we made it back. Good selection and service. Make sure you arrive at opening to ensure the platters are full. They tend to have a difficult time keeping up wit the crowd when it starts to get busy. We will make this a regular stop moving forward.
(5)Lawrence B.
A very good experience, with a great assortment of of food. Not just sushi. Bring the whole family there is something for everyone. The lamb chops are bangin. I would give a 5 bit they don't make zombies. The staff was excellent, great service. When I'm on the road and I'm looking for a place to eat this is the place to go
(5)Shannon W.
As much as I'd love to say that my more recent visits to this place have been up to par with my first impression, I can't. :( Considering that they've kept their pricing the same, it's really not as good as before. Tokyo One has dropped a bit in quality -- the food just doesn't taste as fresh, the sashimi isn't as impressive, and the steamed egg is on the overcooked side. Tempura is greasy as well. They still have that DIY hot pot, which is nice, and the noodle bar, which I haven't visited in a while, so I can't say too much. The dessert section is still cute and dainty, and their creme brulee is still wonderful! I'd probably come here for a fancy lunch, but for dinner I'd rather spend my dollars elsewhere.
(3)Kat C.
I have been coming here (with friends and family) for years and have watched some changes happen with this place: prices have gone up, quality has gone down (a little), and service got a bit better on most days. It's a sushi buffet so don't expect the best of the best but it does have some other dishes (salads, tempura stuff, noodles, desserts like fruit and creme brulee). It used to be worth it but since the price has gone up so much, sometimes I wonder. If you're not sure, come for lunch. It's a bit cheaper then.
(3)Sunny C.
My favorite Japanese buffet restaurants. The price is worth every penny. Go for the fresh salmon they have regularly.
(5)Ivonne R.
There so much to eat and it's yummy i can't wait to go again they make your sushi in front of you for a great deal!
(5)susan d.
First time to try Tokyo one. We a had been to other Japenese rest and thought we'd try Tokyo one to compare to other restaurants. We went at 11:45 for lunch. What a disgusting sight for a buffet , what greeted us were empty serving plates. I asked the manager how come they just opened and all serving trays were empty, she gave some lame reason but no solution how plates will be filled . I went to hot food section which is not much , serving plates are also empty. it took a long while before some sushi tray were filled . So many serving tray never got filled so I don't know what I missed.We will never be back . Go to Japan House in Plano more selection for sushi and hot food and better service . Tokyo One is not the place to take guests ,you will be embarrassed to invite guest to an array of empty plate buffet. I think this is a regular sight, as I had seen pictures in some reviews.the pictures don't lie. Stay away.
(1)Sol L.
Used to go every saturday, sushi is really good but the service is horrible. We were told we can only have one serving of ice cream, ITS A BUFFET! im not paying $20 plus dollars per person to be told i can only have one serving of ice cream! Havent been there since. REALLY CRAPPY SERVICE!
(2)Hien B.
Hey, hey,hey First time back to Tokyo One since 2013- I came back this week with my other cousin from Australia.. not so great? Same variety of dishes, the plates are often empty or close to it (the korean BBQ- was really bad) Whats up with Tokyo One? It wasn't at their peak time but I did not see my waiter at all- Until I asked for check. Food was okay- Still give 4/5 for the food taste
(3)Hannah Y.
My family and I have been coming to this restaurant since I was a little girl. Amazing service. Amaaaaazing food. I highly highly recommend Tokyo One. Their food is fresh and delicious... Now I'm craving it. Lol
(5)Em S.
I like this place. I go at least 2 times a year bc my parents love it more and always request to go here for Mother or Father's Day. They have a pretty decent selection of food.
(4)Rachel L.
me like this place Lots of food are freshly made right in front if u, might be a little wait but well i like my food come off the grill like that. Sushi and sashimi are premium for a buffet. Noodles bar is decent Save some room for dessert plz.
(5)MK R.
We have not been here in years and my in laws were in town from out of the country. They used to love this place so they really wanted to celebrate my father in law's birthday here. We went on a Saturday during lunch. The food was not at all what I remembered, it seemed to have gone downhill quite a bit. The buffet was not refilled and the little food that was there was just nasty rubbery food that sat under the heat lamps for far too long. The oysters tasted really old and frozen. Everything was such a bad experience, we will not be going here again. We were there at 2pm and they close at 3pm. At around 2:30 they said we had 10 min to grab the food we wanted because they were shutting down the buffet. The food was not fresh and it was just gross. To add to the growing list of issues, they had the nerve to charge us for our 2 year old daughter. What buffet charges for what a 2 year old eats? We've been to many (Furr's other chinese buffets, etc) and they have never charged for a 2 yr old. I swear all she ate was a few pieces of broccoli and a few sips of soup. I am not at all a cheap person, but I was very mad that they charged us $8.99 for a meal for a "minor" !!!! This place really sucked for the price tag, food, and service...will not be going back!
(1)Jennifer T.
Ehhh... I thought the food was ok, nothing special. I wouldn't drive all the way there. I can tell crab legs were frozen bc of black spots. And $2.50 for sprite?! WTF. Their buffet price has gone up a bit too. Must be hard times in Tokyo.
(3)Isaac B.
I used to remember when the prices here were lower yet the food was better. Yea, those were the good days, and had Yelp existed back then maybe a 4 or 5 star would be in order, but now that they have jacked up the prices, my expectations has followed. Sadly, they were not met. The best thing to take note here is the cleanliness and service. Also the variety was nice, but I started to question which cuisine the buffet was catering to. Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Mongolian? You can only spread the love so many different ways before you end up with nothing special, and that is how it felt. This buffet has become unfocused. If you're going to call it Tokyo One, try to excel on sushi, because that is what most people will be expecting. The fish that night was kind of old, and it was drowning in rice. The best part was knowing it was almost 30 bucks per person because it helped me decide if I'll be coming back. For 30 dollars, I think there are plenty of great sushi restaurants out there or buffets. I'll give it one more shot later but till then, sayounara.
(3)Nickie G.
Tokyo One is the place you go when you want to have sushi and a LOT of it for not a lot of money. The first time I went here I was completely gobsmacked with the huge sushi buffet. You can seriously load up on the sashimi here, they have quite a few types. They also have hot food, but generally I try and stay away from it so I can eat more sushi and sashimi. The desserts I'd recommend staying away from...they have never seemed to have a lot of taste and sometimes look almost plastic hehe They have the green tea ice cream if you ask for it, it isn't too bad. AND they have the Japanese import beers and saki to wash down your food with. It is enormous inside, so you usually don't have to wait long. I know a sushi buffet sounds kind of scary to some people, but I have never gotten sick after eating here...except that sick, too stuffed feeling...but that's different hehe
(4)Cali H.
Alright this a sushi buffet. No one should expect sushi is going to be good or even fresh. But I have to say it's good buffet with lots of selection. I like the creme burlee it's pretty good. Sometimes they don't tell you but you can order miso soup and for dessert green tea or red bean ice cream. I don't really know what to say because there are plus and minus to each buffets. Since it's a buffet, just try everything!
(3)Beckitta F.
I went again for lunch yesterday and can tell you it did not excite me as it did the first time... Perhaps it was the first time was for sunday brunch so they get to charge more.. It had the feeling of being in a relationship as when a its all new and exciting but now was more drab however not dingy yet thge dishes even though freshly prepared didn't taste as such. The fish seemed to all taste the same and my noodles seemed especially soggy... Luckily my boss paid so felt no loss on that part however when I came home had a case of explosive diareah which I have to assume was from my culinary experiance for lunch :/
(2)Ana d.
Let me start off by saying that I'm not a picky sushi nazi. But oh my goodness, as a bonafide buffet connoisseur, this is as good as it gets. There are tons of choices and the service is great. There are about 5 soups, a salad bar, a hibachi grill, bunches of sushi, and a dessert bar if you make it that far. You get a sake set on your birthday and they are very accommodating for groups. The green tea ice cream is fantastic. Absolutely worth the price.
(5)J.R. A.
A good place for business lunch, good food, great service and not to loud!
(3)Jerry L.
After hearing many good things about Tokyo One I decided to give them a try. My expectations where high from word of mouth and the long wait we experienced to be seated. After being seated we waited at least 10 mins for our server to greet us and take our bar order. I finally took the stroll to map out my sushi attack plan. They do have an extremely wide selection of food to choose from but I was already disappointed by the appearance / presentation of the food due to fellow patrons constant attack with tongs and spatulas. The taste and quality also weren't up to my expectations. Granted I've never been one for feeding trough style eating. If you're one who values gluttony over quality then there's no other sushi buffet that can compare. I for one have no intentions of going back.
(2)Trish F.
I guess not everything is bigger in Texas. Sushi-wise. I was here this past Sunday with some family. I had been eating homemade dishes all weekend but I saved some room for sushi! I think the restaurant had a good thing going with the layout of the food. This place reminded me of a steak house.. with no real theme to it except the waiting area (red lighting and a general Asian feel.. lol). Wow.. the food is abundant. I didn't have them make anything for me (some Mongolian BBQ going on and soup concoctions as well) since there was SOO much food. Baked scallop sushi (ooh my heart).. udon noodles (semi soggy).. some veggies.. and of course! Sushi! The sushi was good for what it was (buffet sushi). Super small portions that I've never really seen before but the fish did taste fresh and they were constantly replenishing the stations.. so good call in my book. In my opinion the selection was kind of plain though with no exciting rolls or interesting combinations. The dessert selection laid out for the buffet was pretty small. Or maybe it's because I couldn't eat chocolate. They did have little chilled dishes of creme brulee out which I found interesting. I split it with my cousin and whewwwww.. sugar overload. lol Unsatisfied with the pastry selection and my sugar shock fading, I ordered some mango ice cream. It was more of a cross between gelati/sorbet though. Super sweet.. but I actually really liked it. The service was great, our waitress was delightful. The wait was longer than I would have liked, but I guess everyone had the next day off for MLK day. I don't know.. I mean I'd go back if I was super hungry, but it wouldn't be at the top of my list. 3 stars for being a buffet though!
(3)Brian H.
Some mixed reviews, so I will just say it like I saw it. I was there for dinner on a Tuesday night (6 ish) and the place was only around 20% occupied (I hate crowds). Being a weekly visitor to the Dallas area - I travel here a week a month or so, I eat out often and have gone to some other sushi buffet's in other cities. I think this stacks up as one of the better offerings - there had to be at least 20 different kinds of sushi, along with sashimi and nice salads. They also had 'warm foods' - lamb chops, beef, chicken - and some of my favorite things were - octopus, scalops, shrimp on skewers. They had raw oysters, crab legs, peeled boiled shrimp, and whole crabs. I didn't hit the desert bar (too full) but noticed soup sized bowls of creame brulee, ice cream and many different cakes and such. The dinner buffet was $26.99 (and I thought that was fair, if I had ordered just the sushi and shrimp I had eaten off a menu it would have exceeded that). So ---- thats my review in a nutshell. If anyone has any similar places like this drop me a line and I will hit them in 2 weeks when I get back to Dallas! Thanks
(4)Rebekah O.
It's not hard for me to rack up a bill when eating fresh sushi - that's what makes Tokyo One so addicting. I know what the bill is going to be and I can eat all that I want! The fish is fresh, selection great and the wait staff was wonderful. I had sushi rolls and nigiri, sashimi, miso soup, fresh tempura fish, eggplant and shrimp, edamame, clams, and probably a few other things! I had so much fun eating I never even made it to the dessert trays!
(4)Steve K.
Lots of variety and I'm sure that you'll find something that appeals to you. Quite crowded, but overall it met my needs and wants for a quick meal. $26.99 + $2 for Miso and/or green tea.
(3)Azmina A.
Nothing better than celebrating a month of no eating than by visiting a place with lotsa eating! Hubster and I decided Tokyo One's massive buffet was a wise option after a month of fasting. Truth be told, no one item is particularly great here. Wait, except the shrimp fried rice which is, quite possibly, the best fried rice ever. But I digress. The beauty of this place is the sheer quantity and variety. You can have rolls, sushi, tempura, salads, shabu shabu, massive crab legs, hibachi, various hot items like dumplings and such, and dessert. And after you've unbuttoned your pants and decided you can't eat another bite, order a scoop of the mango sorbet because it's that good. Do not be fooled, this is not a place for sushi connoisseurs. It is, however, a pretty solid $30 investment, especially when you haven't eaten during daylight hours for the last month.
(4)Chris G.
Sushi Ya is like Mecca for Sushi and Japanese food fiends. It's very professional, and has every kind of sushi and shashimi you can dream up. My best friend and I go when we just want to jump waist deep into some good food. I will say that their quality, and the overall size of the rolls you can get has dipped some since I first started going there, but their tempura, ice cream, and all you can eat crab legs at dinner, more than make up for it. This is one of those places you have to try if you like Sushi.
(4)Sydney P.
My husband and I have been eating at Fogo de Chao for as long as I can remember, and have been wanting to try Tokyo One since it was right next door...Well finally tonight, I went to Tokyo One for dinner this evening with my sister and we loved the food. Great Japanese decor inside, service was friendly, tables and booths are both available and clean. The dinner buffet was $26.99+ tax per person--they had lots of sushi to choose from, sashimi, salads, vegetables, meats, seafood, and desserts/fruits. You can even have a hot pot (broth with raw meats and vegetables that you throw into cook) at the table if you have a big group of people, which is always fun. Great place for dinner, the desserts they had were OKAY, they were not that great, but you also get free ice cream in the end, in which we ordered Green Tea Ice Cream,..they had other flavors like vanilla and mango too. The sushi was good for a buffet and so was most of the other seafood dishes. They have a bar as well, right when you walk in.
(4)Vincent T.
Great buffet if you like sushi & seafoods. On top of all the sushi & seafoods, included in the buffet are: hot pots, grilled meats, soups, salads, great desserts. Great service & friendly staff. Always stop by when we're Dallas!
(4)Cathy C.
If you just come for the crab legs you're definatly getting your money's worth. Not a big variety of sushi and every time I wanted to go to the side with the Korean food they never restocked! I loved the creme brûlée they had on ice and we went to their website and registered as VIPs so we used a birthday coupon and even got a gift! Overall: not bad if you go for lunch on an empty stomach.
(4)Lena G.
Very large selection of sushi and seafood. Very friendly staff. A manager even stopped by every single table and made sure everyone was happy.
(4)Sean P.
This place has turned into an awful restaurant. I have tried it many times in the past and it used to be a very good buffet for the price and the sushi they served. The last experience I had (Couple of days ago for lunch) was terrible. The sushi was not fresh fish, mostly cheap rolls, buffet trays were empty and the price has gone up by $4 for lunch. The service is still good.
(1)P H.
I don't normally do buffets because I have a tendency to really, really overeat at them, but I went along with the plan and guess what? I really, really overate, and then I had to drive all the way back to Denton while fighting off the food coma... That was lunch, and I'm still full as I write this nine hours later... My thoughts on what I ate: Maki / Sushi rolls - if you like rolls, they work - 3 stars Nigiri - Get them only when the chef just sets them out, or they may be a little warm from sitting out. The rice is decent. - 3 stars Sashimi - fresh but only three types (four if you count smoked salmon) - 4 stars Salads - two bars, one with fresh greens (does anyone really eat from there?) and one with mixed "salads" (seaweed salad, kim chi, potato salad, etc.) I liked the mixed salads - 4 stars Soups / noodle soups - good flavors though the noodles were a bit soft - 3 stars Tempura - 4 stars Hibachi - didn't try it... Meats, etc. - hit or miss, the beef was tough, ribs were stringy, chicken was good, oysters were smothered in cheese (good if you like it that way), fried rice and noodles were good - 3 stars Desserts / fruit - creme brulee and green tea ice cream were outstanding! most everything else was good. fruit was fresh and I haven't had papaya in a looooong time - 5 stars Total per person came out to about $15.50 per person (with 10% off for someone in the group having a VIP card. For the amount I ate, and for not having to pay to eat again the rest of the day - 4 stars Final tally - 3.67 stars. I am a fan.
(4)Dino P.
I love the food and service here. It's not cheap but it's so tasty and delicious, everything. I'm sure I'm not the first to say it but this place badly needs to be remodeled. It's decor is old, dank, and not very appetizing. The visible kitchen looks disgusting. They need to update and sanitize the look of the place. They must know the food brings 'em in and so they've let the place get gross. Anyone been to a dimassis or todai in Las Vegas? (I've never gone in Plano) Much cleaner appearing.
(4)Rezwan R.
My 2nd time here and this time I dumped the coworkers for wifey! The food is as good as a buffet gets. Lots of choices of hot and cold dishes, and everyhting was on the tasty side. The rolls and sashimi were fresh. The tempuras were yummo! Everyone else were not kidding about the shrimp fried rice being the best. I saw the entire prep of it on the grill, too. Not very fond of the desserts though. The flan was tasteless, the creme brule was alright. Will visit again for sure. The value is unbeatable!
(3)Jordan M.
Wide variety of fresh food. Sushi, tempura, salads, soups, hibachi, hot pot, and dessert await your gorging pleasure. No seriously it's good stuff and the chefs seem to know what they're doing. For a sushi buffet, the price isn't too steep. The waitstaff (especially Joo) were incredibly attentive - we were provided everything we needed without asking (they saw we had a plate of crab legs, and a pair of crackers on a napkin appeared along with a plate for shell pieces, etc). I'm going to enjoy returning.
(4)Julian V.
Blergggggggggg. I just ate at Tokyo One. The food was so good and plentiful that I ate way more than I should have. This is probably extremely worth it the first few times around. Maybe Dallas buffets are just more awesome, but I've been hard pressed to find a better asian buffet.
(5)S E.
I LOVE THIS PLACE. they have the best sushi and its fresh . it isbetter then other sushi places.and you get more for you money.I have never had bad sushi from here
(5)Jenny M.
Sushi is not the best because it a buffet. Again, why do you want to pay $25 to eat their buffet when you can pay $25 to eat a good meal at real Japanese restaurant. Tokyo one just like Japan house, they are just at typical Japanese buffet restaurant in Dallas Ft.worth. I rather pay little bit more to eat a fresh mean then it sit on buffet for while. the taste are not the same when the food sit on it for long time. If you never been there not hurt to try it.
(3)Lee-Ann P.
Very good all you can eat sushi. It might not be the best, but it's definitely better than "good". Plus, their hot food bar is great.
(5)Eddie H.
I think when you rate a sushi buffet you should not compare them to other restaurants that don't do buffets like oishii and steel. That being said, for a sushi buffet, this place is great! Ive been here a lot for lunch and the service is always attentive and the sushi seems pretty darn fresh. They have little guys in the middle of the buffet working on the sushi like machines. Its served on a frozen marble slab to ensure the right temp which is nice. Also, the hot food is really good! My favorite is the shrimp fried rice, the ramen noodle soup station, and the hibachi! Extra props goes to the tempura station that churns out the fried goodness in rapid pace!

Tokyo One is great and they have variety.
(5)Amy R.
I go here every chance I get. It is pricey, for dinner especially. But its a buffet, of sushi! The service is great, you rarely have an empty glass. I highly recommend it if you are a big fan of sushi and sashimi and not afraid to pay about $16 for lunch and $30 for dinner.
(5)Ryan B.
Best Sushi lunch buffet in all of D/FW. Impressive. Yeah, $20 for a Tuesday lunch might be steep, but if you try another sushi buffet after Tokyo One, you will see the difference.
(4)Thanh H.
not so good. sashimi had not completely thawed - i know places may not always use fresh sushi but don't make it obvious! and for some reason they don't know how to steam edamame completely. i did like the soup options but generally not my worth another trip.
(2)Joe F.
yes tokyo one has a big selection as far as sushi and other foods go for a decent price, but in all fairness i've had better sushi from grocery stores (and not the ones you'd expect). there's not a lot of variety as far as taste and the only thing they really have going for them as far as selection is exotic samples like shark fin. try the stuff you'd never really think about ordering, but don't get your hopes up for big flavor. avoid the desserts at all costs. . .i'm not sure what's going on with them, but it's not right.
(2)Chuck S.
This is one of the best buffets around for sushi. Dinner selection is much greater, but costs more (well worth it). Service is great, and the manager is very friendly. I have been many times since they have opened, and they only seem to get better.
(5)Andrew L.
Most all you can sushi places are just okay, but I was impressed with Tokyo One. The sushi are very good with an average selection. More importantly, they don't skimp on the fish and then add a lot of rice to get you full. The grilled salmon is very good. I would bypass the tea ($2). The fruit at the dessert section are fresh. The staff are very nice with good service. Lunch $20.99.
(4)Chad S.
For a Japanese buffet, this is as good as you get, especially considering in the mid-west, where Asian cuisine is quite limited. The quality of food easily matches that of some of the sit-down Japanese restaurants and definitely chains like Todai. The good quality applies to the large variety of selections from sushi to crabs to desserts, sort of reminding the experience in one of those Vegas buffets, except at a much more reasonable rate (under $20 for weekday lunch and $30 for all meals).
(4)aoki l.
Great deal for the price you pay. This restaurant reaches out to sushi lovers and those who are not a great fan of sushi. They have variety of sushi and sashimi as well other cooked food. I am very impressed with the ingredients they use. It's quality food and the freshness of their seafoods are undeniable. On weekends they also serve hotpots which is included in the price that you pay and they serve ice cream upon request. great place to go! check it out!
(4)Rebecca S.
To quote half a dozen other Yelpers, this place is REALLY GOOD. I'm not a sushi expert by any means, but I loved everything I ate. There is much variety, and everyone will find something they like. I particularly liked the miso soup, and my guy loved the udon noodles and beef kabobs.
(4)bin n.
one of my favorite resturants in Dallas. Yes, its buffet sushi but it isnt. It is fresh and you see the chefs cutting and dicing fresh fish in front of you. I really like the variety. We enjoy the sushi, soup bar, and the Seafood. The Grilled dunganes crab is very good.
(5)Kang H.
Pretty similar to the one in plano, Ozarka Japanese Buffet. Price is reasonable for its quality. It cost $40 for two people for lunch buffet. If you want a quick Japanese lunch, this may be good to you.
(3)Charlie C.
Frank is right about the history of sushi. Alton Brown from Food Network's Good Eats says basically the same thing (and that was a good episode). I thought that Tokyo One was going to be the quality of a kaiten sushi (belt sushi which = cheap sushi = so-so sushi), or worse, since Texas isn't known for fish, but for steak instead (T-bone, rib eye, chicken fried). But I was surprised to find it better than the average kaiten sushi. There is quite a bit of selection, and the sashimi (raw fish) was actually quite fresh and buttery. Though I couldn't understand the reason why they chopped all the sashimi into about 1/5 of the regular size. However, a few of the rolls were a little bit suspicious. Way too much cream cheese in some of the rolls overpowered everything else, so I couldn't taste the fish. I thought that only the spicy tuna roll was worthy. The shrimp tempura was pretty good as well. Don't forget to ask for the free green tea or red bean ice cream at the end. The service was good, but then again, I was speaking Japanese to the waitress, which I assume is not that common in Texas. A little bit pricey now, $28 for dinner buffet and $2 for ocha (tea)! I would give two-and-a-half stars if it were possible, with the half-point deduction coming from the price and a few questionable rolls.
(3)Michael Y.
Great Ramen & sushi rolls. Comparable prices to other sushi buffets.
(4)Inka B.
Tokyo One is, by far, my favorite restaurant. Their prices are not bad especially if you go during lunch or before three pm. I have never had a bad experience there and believe me, they get a good portion of my paycheck every month.
(5)Xs X.
My Friday lunch recommendation. Feast on a Japanese buffet bonanza.
(4)Tiffany T.
Old family fave. My mom loves coming here. Sushi is not top-notch but it's quality sushi for a good price. This place is better than Osaka in Plano (also sushi buffet). Tokyo One has more variety, better rolls (futomaki!), and better non-sushi food. I'd agree with Frank in going for lunch. Best value. Waiter will bring you miso soup (included). There's sushi down one side of the buffet island. The teppanyaki station at the end. Salad on the other side of the island. Hot food like savory egg custard, tempura, and salmon is along one wall. At the end of the hot food wall, you'll find the desserts and fresh fruit. A scoop of ice cream is included in your buffet. So save room! Get red bean!
(5)Slowsteady S.
Among all the Japanese buffets, I think this is my favourite. Especially for dinner, the dungeness crab is the highlight. Sushi & sashimi is decent. I have to say most sushis & sashimi at all these buffet restaurants are pretty similar. What sets them apart to me is their selection of hot food. This place has very nice hot food & tempura & hot pot. Green tea ice cream is the best here.
(5)Randy d.
Very very good buffet. I have been here separate times for lunch and dinner. There is an extensive selection of soups, sushi and the standard Japanese fare. I would recommend going here only for lunch as it seems you are paying significantly more money for not so much more variety for dinner.
(4)Julie D.
My parents LOVE this place. They want to go there for any special occasion...Anniversary, Birthdays, Mother's Day, etc...! My dad loves the all you can eat sashimi accompanied by sake. My mom prefers the grilled crab legs and shrimp. I don't have a particular favorite....but I can never pass up the hibachi with scallops and shrimp, udon tempura soup, or the coffee creme brulee. I don't have much of the sushi since I'm a sushi snob....guilty! I've tried the sushi once...just not my cup of tea, that's all. It's a good place for a big group of hungry adolescents and family. I tried to find another japanese buffet to get some variety but haven't found one the family liked better than Toyko One.
(4)Joseph K.
I really enjoyed Tokyo One. The service was outstanding, I think our server was Peter and he was very good. The food was very good, although I'm not a Sushi person, but other people in our party really enjoyed the Sushi. I really enjoyed all the fresh seafood. The crab legs were outstanding, not like you get from a Red Lobster, or Joe's Crab Shack. I also had them prepare some fresh scallop for me that was very fresh and very good. I really like the assortment of the grilled lamb and kabobs and also the short ribs. I really enjoyed this place and will definitely be going back.
(5)P L.
In comparison to some of the other asian buffets I've been to in the US, Tokyo One is one of my favorites. Yes, it is pricey ($25/person), but with a selection that ranges from fresh sushi (at least when I was there), a hot pot for cooking at your table, quality hot dishes on the side, and a good selection of desserts (including the creme brulee and choc covered strawberries), you really can't go wrong. The both times I've been to Texas, I've definitely chosen this place over other local restaurants like Fogo, et al. Yes, it does get packed, so get there early to be seated. The decor and ambience work well within the asian theme of the restaurant. When I go back to the Dallas area, I'm definitely hitting this place up again.
(5)Matt K.
Tokyo One is by far my favorite Japanese buffet in the metroplex. I have been to many others in the area but none offer the selection and the quality of Tokyo One. There are a variety if specialty rolls to choose from. In addition, there is a sushi section and a selection of sashimi and a very tasty chirashi plate. Then there is a noodle soup section that has I believe 5 different ones to choose from. The hot food section includes such items as: beef kabobs, korean style bbq ribs, mussles, fried rice, udon noodles and chicken teriyaki. Next to that is the tempura that is constantly being fried. I love the shrimp and the sweet potato tempura! I'm not done yet, there is also a section that has various salads and mixtures such as a delicious seaweed salad and of course, edamame. After eating a couple of plates of all of that, I hit the dessert table. This table has such cakes as orange green tea, and coffe mousse. There is also creme brulee and flan. My favorite item is a jelly like dessert that has fruit bits floating inside! To finish it off, don't forget to save room for the ice cream...I always get the green tea ice cream. Overall, a great quality buffet, even for lunch. For dinner there is even more sashimi and higher priced items such as white tuna and handrolls. I recommend the lunch buffet because it is a better value, but dinner does include its perks. Friendly service and a (what I believe used to be a Red Lobster) clean dining atmosphere make this a solid buffet when you are HUNGRY!!!
(4)Adam K.
The words sushi and buffet should never go together. Their soup line is good and their sushi selection is great, but they are pricey because of the fact that they offer a full line of Japanese foods as well as a personal hibachi area. I'm mainly there for the sushi and soup. They also Japanese beers such as Ichiban and Sapporo.
(3)Alex L.
This place kind of sucks and is for the general public who have very little knowledge about what really good sushi is. The sushi is generally not very fresh and the selection is just straight run of the mill. Yeah, it's all you can eat, but it's more like all the things I don't want to eat much of... They have no sushi delicacies, their cooked food is below average, and unless you haven't eaten in days, it's kind of hard to eat your money's worth here. Trust me even if you eat until you're completely full, the sushi they use is so cheap, and everything else is dirt cheap, this is not a place you can get the best bang for your buck.
(2)Kailea B.
My boyfriend & I went here for our birthdays, which are very close together. We really enjoyed it. I am new to Sushi so I liked that I was able to taste a lot of different things that I normally would not order. The white tuna was amazing! They had some good hot dishes- fried sweet potato? who thought of that? yum! And the rolls where great. I liked how you could see all the chiefs making the food right there- you didn't wonder where it came from & what had been done to it. We didn't use all the features, like the hot pot- but we wish we had! The waiter never told us about it and by the time we figured out what it was we were too full. It was a little pricey, but the staff was super friendly, even the owner came around and thanked us for coming. Next time we are going to stay a while with a few friends so we feel we get our moneys worth. This time we just came ate and left, I was looking around at the other tables and they were hanging out, talking, cooking crab legs and staying for what looked like hours so when our waiter saw we were done he said "so soon?" so I'm guessing they are used to customers staying a while- which would make the money worth it- epically if you are eating crab legs as well! If you think about the money you would spend on sushi or a bucket of crab legs to have them together for that price is a pretty good deal every once in a while.
(4)Ariza S.
I went to Tokyo One on Saturday for a friend's birthday and was surprised by how big the inside of this place is. I'm not usually a really big buffet person because I never feel like I can eat enough for my money's worth but considering the place is sushi I can easily consume $30 worth! We were a party of 10 and our waitress never kept us waiting; she constantly refilled drinks, picked up empty plates and asked if everything was okay several times. The place is very open with lots of seating and there was actually a projector going on one wall playing an episode of desperate housewives as entertainment. That wasn't the only random thing. There were large Christmas ornaments hanging from the ceiling that I recognized from Target and found amusing. The food itself is what lowered my rating. Some of the rolls were decent but the rice tasted a little funky as if there was vinegar or something mixed in so I stuck to sashimi most of the night. The tuna tataki was yummy and the salmon and scallops were fresh. I also tried some other dishes like their seaweed salad (good until I found some hair in it), jellyfish salad, octopus salad, udon noodles with mushroom broth, garlic calamari (heavy on the garlic) and green tea noodles which were plain. I'm a sucker for dessert and wanted to try everything they had on this table because it all looked so good but was disappointed with everything I tried except their creme brule which was surprisingly good. We also tried their green tea ice cream which was decent but melted really fast. This is definitely a place to come to for the sashmi as it's fresh and affordable but nothing else really. The birthday boy did get a Tokyo one sake set at the end of the night was was pretty cool but unfortunately I was left with a not so happy tummy and a $79 bill for two people.
(3)David C.
I ate so much that I threw-up a little in my mouth...Ok.. I didn't. but I felt like a real-live monty python skit. The sushi and sashimi was excellent, the hot pot didn't have as many things but was awesome anyways, and the rest of the items made me want more. My only complaint is that I don't have 4 stomachs.
(5)Sheren H.
sushi, sashimi, shabu shabu, grilled stuff, udon, tempura...buffet. sweet! it doesnt get any better than this. i wish i had a bigger stomach. i usually go there during lunch (on weekends). it's not as pricey as the dinner time. oh..one downside about them - the dessert is so so . nothing to write home about.
(5)Solomon W.
First to start off, Wow. I haven't been in about a year or so, but I guess according to Andrew L. the price is now $21 for lunch?! It's ridiculous that the price has gone up that much for a pretty good sushi buffet. This was once my favorite place for lunch because it was $15 for the amount of sushi I could eat. I once went for my birthday in 2006 and ate 120 pieces. That was pretty terrible. Because I would trek out there up to 4 times a week during summer vacation, all of the mexican sushi chefs recognized me and treated me like royalty. I used to go up to the sushi chef that knew me and he cut me an entire slab of salmon which yielded about 25 thick slices of sashimi. Since then, the quality of the food has gone down, and the shrimp tempura rolls are no longer my favorite. When I used to go, the salads had alot of care put into them, such as this avocado/mozzarella salad offered, but everything now seems store-bought. Probably from Sam's or Costco seeing as they are asian owners. It is all about convenience. Their sushi selection has dwindled to about 10 rolls, 10 nigiri, and 5 sashimi. I still think this would be a good location to take Americans that simply want to explore sushi for the first time, or simply have a little more upscale Chinese buffet. The hibachi grill and soup bars probably appeal highly to many people. I will say that Tokyo One offers pretty good hot food, and their complementary ice cream for dessert is heavenly, if you're up for trying weird flavors. I recommend the green tea/red bean ice creams. You have to ask for them. But all in all, this is still a great place to hang out with friends, especially ones that want to try new things.
(2)Frank Y.
If you are new to sushi, go here first. Do lunch. For a reasonable price you can try a little bit of everything. Veterans like me love this place because we get high quality sushi and grill for a good price, $15 lunch buffet ($26 dinner) last time I went. The food doesn't get that much better. Why pay more? I want to remind people that sushi is overrated in America. It's really just finger food, and in Asia they sell individually wrapped pieces of sushi in train stations so commuters can grab a bite on the go. Think of it as Japanese revenge to Pizza Hut's attempt to market pizza as a white tablecloth & wine dinner event. This is a humorous take on it -- youtube.com/watch?v=rRXf…
(5)Mike W.
i really like this place, this is the first place i went for sushi when i moved here to dallas. food is good, a lot of variety, people are realy nice, i really like the decore. great place to bring friends but its expensive.
(5)Joseph B.
Haha! Frank's link is too funny! It's definitely a great place to get your monies worth in decent sushi. I agree with Charlie, I went yesterday and yes too much cream cheese in the rolls.
(3)Kelvin R.
I love this place. I have been often enough to have it down to a science. A plate of tempura with sushi and a plate of teppanyaki grill. Lunch is not a bad deal, costs me 20 bucks plus tip. Dinner is 30 plus tip. If i'm in the mood for Japanese I go here
(4)Ricky H.
I always try to find a review about a restaurant where I want to eat. After a long research, I narrow down my choice to Tokyo One because it has very good review overall (4 stars). However, I was really surprised when I got there, because they change the price suddenly to $26.99 because of New Year's Day (instead of 14.99). Well, I thought, it will be worth to try since the review is very good. The sushi is not fresh at all; it has been sitting there for hours. You can tell this because the rice is already dried and loose it moisture. Also, they only have very limited choice of sushi. Some of the raw fish that they served is not fresh at all, you can tell this by the color and taste of the fish (Be VERY Careful!). What really bothered me is none of the staff take initiation to re-fill or bring new food to replace the empty tray. These are true for their sushi, fruits, shrimp tempura, etc. Later on, I read the review again, and some of these reviews are seem to "over promote" and questionable. Bottom Line: For the price that you have to pay, I don't think its worth at all.
(1)Isabel V.
I am not a huge fan of buffets, but hey it was my birthday and it was free... BUT definitely not good sushi. I've had better at different buffet restaurants. I tried the mango ice cream, I am even less of a fan of artificial mango flavor. Really the second star is for the service the wait staff was really good and nice. In my opinion skip this place.
(2)John B.
This is an awesome place to go for Sunday lunch, the buffet is much cheaper than the night time rates and the sushi still very good.
(4)s k.
I've eaten at Tokyo One many times whenever I visited Dallas area. For a buffet, the food is a good value (weekday lunch) ... lots of variety... OK sushi - doesn't matter that fish portions are small because you can go back for more. Fish is tasty. Good selection for non-sushi eaters. Good service. Skip the tempura unless it's right out of the oil...even then there are a lot yummier choices. If you want white rice or miso soup just ask your server.
(4)A. T.
First time I was exposed to a buffet featuring sushi-what a variety they have too. In addition, you can get various types of soup featuring diffeent noodles like udon or ramen. You can pick up some kimchi, seaweed salad, among others. Fried yam, fried onions, among other fried vegetables. There is even a hibachi. They have a dessert bar where you can choose among creme brulee or different cakes. They even have ice cream. About the sushi-the great thing is with the crowds this place draws-the sushi gets refreshed rather quickly. I always leave this place stuffed.
(5)Peter V.
This was one of my Dad's favorite places when he was alive and visiting Dallas, yet I've never had a chance to go until recently. I can see why he liked it so much. Yes it is pricey ($90 for the two of us), but the food was worth it. Everything on the buffet line was fresh and prepared in small portions. There were times that items ran out, but its worth it to me to get the freshest product possible. The sashimi was delicious and the hot line was also surprisingly good. Build your own hotpot, desert line, tempura station, huge crab legs. Keep in mind that this is a buffet, do not expect the same service you get in a restaurant. However when I would go back to the buffet line, my place was cleared when I returned and my drink never went dry. Perfect service for a buffet restaurant. I'll be back!
(5)Monica P.
It's your typical Japanese buffet. Food was good. Nothing to rave about. They had a hot pot bar, noodle bar and sashimi bar. Service was good. At the end of the meal they give you a choice of chocolate, vanilla, red bean or green tea ice cream. Those were pretty good!
(3)Johnny T.
I've been to tokyo one many times before but lately it seems like it's just not as good anymore. The sushi seems to have gotten less fresh every time I've come. My salmon was all limp and slimy when I ate it but it might just be because I've eaten higher grade sushi and my taste buds have adapted to that. Other than that the other buffet food is good, the sashimi is not.
(3)Charlene C.
I really enjoyed both the food and service here. The food is prepared fresh and frequently so you can tell it hasn't been sitting out for a while. They offer a lot of variety: ~Salads/Appetizers (Crab legs, kimchi, edamame, grilled veggies, deviled eggs, shrimp, dumplings, etc.) ~Sushi, Sashimi, Rolls ~Korean ribs, kabobs, chicken, Hibachi Grill, noodles, fried rice, egg rolls, shrimp tempura, veggie tempura ~Ramen Noodle Bar and you can put your own toppings on it. Choice of Broth: Shoyu Ramen (soy sauce flavor w/ chicken base), Spicy Thai (hot & sour w/ fish base), Udon (mushroom flavor), Green Tea Noodle Mushroom Soup ~Hot Pot (You can request this from your server and they will bring you a pot to your table and you can add seafood, veggies, tofu etc which is located in the buffet) ~Dessert (Creme brulee, cakes, fruit, ice cream) PRICES: Lunch (Mon-Fri) $16.99, (Sat & Sun) $22.99 Dinner $32.99-$35.99 We chatted with the manager while we were at the Ramen Noodle Bar and found out that she has family in California. She came later on to our table and we talked a bit more. Our server was also on his game. He was so quick to take away plates even when we were barely done with it! He was also constantly refilling our hot teas, brought out the hot pot, and also ice cream. 73/100 Reviews for 2015
(4)Minnaz S.
Went last night for dinner, wonderful service ask for "Apple" she is super sweet! They have hot pots ask for one, you can spice up the broth and reheat your crab legs....Yummiest! Ask for ice cream too!
(4)Paul H.
Decor: 3.5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Food: 4/5 When it comes to buffets, you need a strategy. Go for the protein, limit the carbs and liquids. I skipped over the noodle soup, tempura and rice. I also limited sushi and went for the sashimi. Quality of the salmon, tuna, seared salmon, hamachi were not bad. The ahi poki was great because it was seasoned. The cumin lamb and short rib were tender and flavorful. The seasoned chicken wings were surprisingly good too. Of the desserts, my favorite was the french cheesecake followed by the oreo cake. The only thing that bugged me was how slow the unagi (eel) was replenished. Parties of 8 can be seated comfortably.
(4)Connie C.
This was one of the worst place that I've ever went. It was my first visit, so I checked the review on the Yelp. Their review was 50:50, but I was craving for Japanese buffet. Honestly, they have very a few choices even they serve a buffet and more over, lack of flavors, the service was alright. I visited for lunch, but I don't think it is worth for the price of $16.99. Especially the sashimi & sushi wasn't fresh at all. If you want to try fresh sushi & sashimi & more variety foods, look for another place. I really don't recommend this place.
(1)Wai Y.
Food (**** out of *****); A lot of variety of food; sushi rolls, sashimi, made to order noodles station (udon, ramen, etc), hot food station (korean short ribs, crab, Japanese egg pudding, tempura, curry chicken Thai style, steak skewers cooked medium, cooked mussles with cheese, fried rice, stir fry to order, etc.) cold food station (various salads, jelly fish, etc.), desserts and fruit station (strawberry, melons, papaya, pineapple, flan, cheesecake, creme brulee, Chinese black jello, etc.). If you can't find something here you like, you're not human. It is as good as most Las Vegas premium buffets. Service (* out of *****); Very poor service. The head sushi chef needs to go to Royal China to see how open kitchens are done. He has a very sour, bitter face and he jealously guards his sushi like it's his family jewels or something. During rush hour when everyone is wanting food, he doesn't put any food out on the buffet line. However, when everyone has finished eating and NOBODY is on the buffet line, he'll put food out. What is he thinking! Put the food out when everyone is getting food and leave the buffet line empty but make sushi to order when nobody is on the line. This is the first time I came to this place on a Saturday night. I normally come to eat here at lunch right when they open on weekdays. Now, I understand where all the bad reviews of this place comes from. I previously thought that all the negative reviewers are all eating at another Tokyo One in another dimension! The waiters all RUN AWAY from you when they see you trying to flag them down. Really! It's almost comical! I know the restaurant is busy and it's hard work, but at the very least up up a finger to indicate that you'll be back in one minute. Don't run away. The used plates stacked up and up. At one point I started to put plates on the empty table next to mine, almost (I didn't because that would be rude). Atmosphere (** out of *****); Really loud in there with everyone talking, and the TV playing. They have an enormous TV in there so if some game is on, that's a good place to go, I guess. Just check to see if they have the channel you want to watch ahead of time. All big parties will be in the loud tv room. If you're in a small party of 4 or less, ask to be in a privacy booth in the other room for a quiet, intimate meal. Make a reservation if you don't want to wait, especially if you have a large party. Conclusion (*** out of *****); For dinner, it's not really that good a deal. Dinner is $33 but weekday lunch is $17. Weekend lunch is $23. The only difference between lunch and dinner service is the crab legs, but it is much more expensive for dinner. So, unless you really like crab legs, don't go for dinner. Plus, the service at night really sucks, too. If you wanna eat there, be sure to go there for weekday lunch right when they open like I do. For good food but bad service, come to Tokyo One for dinner.
(2)Karen L.
Most all you can eat sushi places have turned me off, but Tokyo One's quality makes me forget why I was ever wary about AYCE sushi. Their fish is really fresh, so I'm not afraid of going back for thirds. The cooks are always so speedy, so the food is fresh off the stove top by the time you come around. I missed all the shrimp tempura, but when I came back after my first place, there were a ton of fresh ones!
(4)David V.
Came for Sunday brunch, ehh it was okay. I guess they have better stuff during dinner time. The price wasn't bad for lunch. I give it 3.7 stars. I can't really rate the cons because I guess we came during lunch, so they didn't have a lot of what I was expecting. We didn't see the spicy scallop or ikura sushi. Also no oysters or crab legs. The pros: what they did have was pretty good. We liked the creamy mushroom salad, I liked the squid sushi, the Philadelphia roll was pretty good. I liked the tempura fish too. I wanted to try the ramen it looked really good, my brother says it was just okay. The hot pot was also part of the buffet pricing:-) The desserts were mediocre, but the green tea ice cream was awesome. It really wasn't sweet and was different than what you typically get. Overall good value lunch, will have to come back for dinner. Service was quick and friendly.
(4)Lily F.
I don't ever expect the best quality of sushi and sashimi at an all you can stuff your face. But seriously, for less than 20 bucks for lunch here, you really can't beat it. The key is to not get any of the filler b.s. That fried rice served in a tea cup thing at the end of the line might look cool, but don't get it! The truth is, there really are some decent items here such as: anything fried is usually good (there's usually a man who is constantly making shrimp and veg tempura during peak times), the tofu, seaweed and different seafood salad, and of course some of the rolls and sashimi. Think about it: If you're not that picky to begin with or are fairly new to sushi, this is a great find out what you like, especially because it's clean and for the most part, fresh. Never tried eel before? Try it here and then go to an actual sushi restaurant later on and it'll probably be way better. But at least you'll know what to expect. And because the price is very good, you know they had to cut the corners somewhere. And that folks, is definitely the dessert area. I just usually stick with the fruit or the green tea ice cream. The weekend dinner prices are way more expensive since they have hot pots and crab legs.
(4)Barbara E.
worst sushi I have ever had , the place smells bad, the food has a bad taste. My husband and I hated the place. Dont wast your time going there.
(1)G B.
Great Japanese food - buffet style. Come hungry..very hungry! Fresh sushi, hibachi plus hot pot. But I always love their green tea noodle soup, it is a must to try. With dessert, the creme brûlée is one of the best. They also have a great variety of fruits to choose from. Price may cost a tad bit more than a regular buffet but it is worth it!
(4)Lindy C.
This Upscale seafood and Asian buffet is great! Sushi, sashimi, cooked Asian dishes, seafood, dessert, ramen and hot pot are just a few things you'll encounter! They have a good amount of sushi rolls but their sashimi selection is much better. Sushi rolls that I can remember are California rolls, spicy tuna, spicy salmon, tuna, salmon, veggie roll, many tempura rolls and lots of specialty house rolls. The sashimi goes on and on. The slices are thick and I've always felt that they were fresh. The other seafood they have include crab legs which are a plenty, steamed muscles, spicy clams, shrimp, calamari and jelly fish which is my favorite that comes tossed with some pickled veggies. Jelly fish is by far MY FAVORITE! The crab legs are hearty and the muscles are great too. The clams and shrimp are okay but I wouldn't fill up on them. You can get ramen here too! It's like this place has so many options... Because they do! But I always get the shoyu ramen but there's also a green tea variety and a spicy one. You add your own items into the ramen which are seaweed, fish cake, sesame, ginger, quail eggs, mushrooms, green onions and a bit more. The hot pot is not amazing but it is good. I recommend ordering it when you first sit down that way you make sure to try it. It's no extra charge, they bring it to your table and you can select all foods you want to eat with it from this self serve bar area near the dessert table. It includes a variety of veggies, meats and seasonings to add. The cooked food varies but typically serve a noodle dish, curry chicken dish, Asian seasoned wings, egg custard, beef kabob, tempura veggies, and much more. Very large selection. There are also uncooked foods which are the seaweed salad, chilled tofu and lots of others I can't remember them all. The dessert is okay but where you win is with the ice cream that you have to ask your waiter for. They have mango, vanilla, chocolate, red bean and green tea. I like the mango the best. The vanilla and chocolate are... Well vanilla and chocolate, don't get them. Instead be "adventurous" and try the red bean or green tea, you won't be disappointed. The dessert table looks visually appealing but looks are deceiving! The only thing I like from this table are the fruits lychee and cherries. The cakes, mousses and creme brûlée are ones you can skip. Basically if your in the mood for so many different Asian foods this place is your go to. I know it's Tokyo one but they really do have more than just Japanese food.

There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of sushi restaurants in the DFW area...do yourself a favor and visit ANY other one. Why you ask? I give you 7 reasons, my friends: 1. Poor sushi quality 2. Very limited selection of sushi 3. Execution of ramen bar makes me so sad inside. They didn't have ramen noodles for the "ramen" bar, but instead, they use udon noodles. 4. Staff stops replenishing buffet about 2 hours before close, (on a Saturday!) so the food tastes dry, crusty and old. 5. Fifteen minutes before close they shut the music off and make you feel awkward for being there during their "open" hours. In addition, they harass each client (2 times in approx 2 minutes) to get what food they want because they want to tear down the buffet 15 minutes early. At this time, they also stop replenishing your beverages and complain to other staff (in front of you) about you being there. 6. After the actual closing time hit, staff disappeared. We stood by the front register for close to 5 minutes until someone gave us our check....which leads me to my last point... 7. EXPENSIVE! So so expensive for what it is. In the end, old food, terrible sushi and rude service cost 2 people about $70. Avoid, avoid, avoid!

The platters of food were empty on the buffet line. The service was bad. My wife slipped and fell due to their horrible entrance with one rug that was about 20 inches wide. After she fell, the manager quickly went outside and put another rug down beside the other one. Lunch was NOT cheap and yet the food, service, and overall experience was the worst I have had in a very very very long time

Supposedly Osaka's little sister, Tokyo One is owned by the same person as the restaurant Osaka. But the cost-cutting here is obvious. Unfortunately, the food at Tokyo One is not nearly as good as Osaka, and more importantly, Tokyo One chronically could not keep its plates full. The sashimi bar, the sushi bar, and the hot foods sections all had at least four dishes completely empty at all times. Seriously? What kind of restaurant lets that happen? It was extremely disappointing given the cost of this restaurant. I go to Osaka regularly and always enjoy myself and leave full even though I am a vegetarian. But at Tokyo One, I returned to my seat with a less than full plate... because I couldn't find anything to eat. I ended up filling up on fruit, and that's sad. The restaurant is also uncomfortable. The buffet area does not have enough space around it, and there are too many tables for the space available, so it's crowded. It does not have broad walkways for you to easily return to your table. The entrance into the restaurant is a tiled ramp, which is smooth and gets really slippery in wet weather.
(1)Simon R.
Considering the $$ charged for this all you can eat buffet, Tokyo One should be much more consistent with its food and service. There were times that I have been here and everything was buzzing. Food was nice, staff was friendly ... and just a good time overall. But there have also been times when the food felt second/third rate. I have been served frozen fish on the sushi bar, seen food plates at the bar with dried up meats and fish that I would not touch, and had less than friendly staff. I truly admire what Tokyo One tries to be, but all too frequently they fall short. Hopefully this will be repaired, as I like coming here.
(3)Johnny T.
If your whole family gets an upset stomach and some diarrhea after going here, you know something went wrong. I have been here in the past and it was pretty nice for the quality of food. But during my most recent visit, the service was slow and the entree items lacked finesse. Some items at the buffet were not replaced fast which was unexpected during the end of lunch rush hour. The ice cream was also icy at the end, please can you guys not use dripping wet scoops?
(1)Michael G.
I left at four stores only because it's all you can eat. The sushi was acceptable and good in some cases, but it wasn't great sushi. I liked the opportunity to try lots of different sushi and sashimi. I will definitely be back, but only when I am very hungry.
(4)Lynn P.
First time at Tokyo One and I thought it would be the same experience as Osaka. For the price 34$ per person for dinner, I do expect the service and food bar to be filled at all times. The service is not that great. We had a guy in the beginning and he constantly came to our table and then 10 minutes later they switch and had a lady. She never came to our table. Our table was full of plates and drinks are not refilled. The food were empty not just once but every time I go up to get food it's empty. We didn't come near closing time either. This is around 6:30pm. The sushi were dried and not fresh. It looked like it's been out for a while. The only thing that I did like about this place is that they had Hawaii poke. And I was craving that. They also had chocolate covered strawberries. I don't think the prices reflects the service and food that they provide. I would rather go to Osaka.

This is the best lunch $20 can buy on the planet, period, bar none. There is something here for everyone, and it ranges from good to great: - dozens of nigiri sushi and rolls to choose from - several sashimi choices (the salmon is divine) - soup bar- several choices, all good, tons of condiments - tempura station: shrimp, fish, and veggies, excellent - hot station: wide range of cooked delicacies, about 20 to choose from, including a few char-grilled proteins (short ribs, salmon collars, calamari, and more) - salad station: a couple of dozen fresh salads, all fresh and delish - dessert station: creme brulee is excellent, and fresh fruit, and pastries (pastries my least fave) I came here late in the lunch hour, about 30 minutes before last call, so they were "tapering down". I had to ask for a restock on california roll, but everything else I wanted (a lot) was available and fresh. Highly recommended pig-out of all you can eat near-top notch Japanese food. You will be happy.
(5)Rebecca E.
My favorite restaurant ever!!! If you love sushi, I honestly don't think you can get much better than this. Fresh and delicious and so many options to choose from. The dessert is good too! Reasonably priced, especially the lunch buffet! Try this place out, you won't be sorry!
(5)Miguel H.
This is the best Asian Buffet I have ever been to, hands down. Get the salmon steaks, I love love love love Salmon! It is so good. They sure know how to prepare it here. Its so yummy I love love love it! Tokyo One!!! Check it out.
(5)Judy N.
I've been here a few times for my birthday and I've enjoyed it each time. The only bad thing is probably the price. It's a bit pricey but you get very fresh sashimi and a variety of rolls. I love the green tea ice cream, it's the best I've ever had.
(4)Mai-Anh H.
The only buffet I'll ever love. Sashimi for days. What could go wrong?
(5)Shelby M.
I've been here twice and each time I had a completely different experience. The first time it was very crowded but the cooked food wasn't as stale and the sushi tasted fresher. The second time the place was kind of slow and the food wasn't near as good. My favorite thing about the place is the mango ice cream. And the best roll is the volcano roll BY FAR. I suggest going on the weekend.
(3)Sato K.
We went to this Japanese Buffet for about few mouths ago. I forgot to leave the review on yelp. They were not busy at all and a lot of seats were opened. But the front lady who send customer to a seat sent us to a seat by the toilet and the corner where workers go back and forth. First of all we didn't mind where we seat but meanwhile we were eating foods and the toilet smell was bothering us so much. We just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. It wasn't the only thing that got on our nerves. Even The place wasn't busy, the buffet stand where foods are displayed were empty and the service was pretty bad... We wanted to eat at Japanese buffet but that buffet wasn't Japanese foods. No fresh foods and old sashimi and sushi. I actually did not expect nice and fresh food in a buffet but that buffet was worst ever. I don't want to recommend this place. We've wasted money...
(1)Larry T.
This Japanese buffet place used to be the favorite of my family every time we stop by Dallas. Last week, we went there and immediately we noticed some difference from the past. 1. Dinner price raised from $27 to $34. 2. Usually, there were several Asian faces behind the sushi and hot food buffet preparing food. Before, those Asian chefs were Chinese and now they are Vietnamese. At first, we didn't mind. I have to say, they did a really bad job on all the nigiri sushi. The rice was hard and tasted like right out of refrigerator. The grilled salmon sashimi tastes really disgusting and I had to spit out immediately. I think that it spoiled. The worst of all is the price. Usually, the more expansive dinner price covers many more expansive ingredients and dishes. The Japanese buffet at Houston throws in a whole lobster to your table for every guests, so they charge you double. Here in Dallas, there are not too much difference comparing to the lunch buffet: a couple more sashimi, oyster, and crab legs. That's it. The major difference is less guests comparing to the crowd at noon. And, they charge you double. I kind of think I was just paying for the empty table next to us and nothing more. Now when I think more, that's why they have empty tables at dinner time. Not sure but I guess the management team changed. My advise: don't go for their dinner buffet. Not worthy. At least, we, as old customer for a decade, will never go there for dinner any more.
(2)Michael P.
outstanding!!!!! worth every cent!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(5)Tim K.
Surprisingly good for a buffet. The sushi was good and the sashimi tasted fresh. I was skeptical at first being that it was a buffet but this place certainly stands apart from your typical buffet joints. The price however is pretty high but well worth it. Go hungry!
(4)Tim S.
Sushi. Buffet. Two words that should never be in the same sentence. Do you really want to eat something like sashimi in an all-you-can-eat buffet style setting? I've been here a number of times -- every time I get out-voted on lunch with coworkers -- and I've never gotten *sick* from it, but I seldom find much of a real selection amidst the piles of food here. Miso ginger soup is a standard, and is just fine. They have cheap soy sauce (I prefer Lee Kum Kee), but I can live with that. The tempura fruit and prawns are good, but they go too fast. The grilled meats tend to be a bit dry, tough, and/or oversauced. The rolls are so-so if you can handle bits of fish gristle and the like. it's not all that bad, the eel is good also when fresh (although they do warm it in the microwave. Right there in front of you). The workmanship of the rolls is also solid. The sashimi gives off odors that have kept me from sampling it. Then there are a few other soups and plates of salads and the like that are okay, but not terribly appetizing. All in all the food is *okay* but at around $25 for lunch after tax and tip, I am not getting my money's worth here.
(2)Keli M.
Overpriced and subpar. They had some California and Spicy tuna roll. Then there was a section with sashimi...it really did not seem too fresh. Okay, so I headed to the other side and grabbed the seaweed salad because it was fresh. I also tried the beef short ribs, and the chicken fried rice. Both were okay. The dessert was a huge disappointment too. There was some fruit, and some gelatinous mango/blackberry things with whipped cream. They also had a pan of crime brûlée that looked really sad. I just grabbed some fruit. My co-worker and I had a coupon for 10% off, and the total still came to $16. So basically it was a $20 lunch, and I left unsatisfied because I really did not want to eat a lot. Save your money and go to Whole Foods up the street for lunch. This was crap.
(1)James Z.
Went in Saturday at 2 with high expectations but they definitely not did live up to them. Waitress was nice but the food selection was very small. There was one small area for sushi rolls and sashimi, definitely not enough for a high end Japanese buffet. Also, none of the sushi looked fresh. Looked like it had been sitting out for a while. The rice was hard in all the rolls. I was definitely disappointed. Nothing else was really great considering the $21.99 price tag. I don't mind paying a lot but the quality better back it up. Our waitress disappeared after a while and I had to go to the bar and get my own ice cream. The waitress there gave me a dirty look when I asked her for some and asked where my waitress was...was not happy about that. The ice cream was good once we finally got it The saving point was the creme brûlée. All in all, not worth the money and I was expecting more from a nicer Japanese buffet in Addison.
(1)K L.
Overpriced, super salty snow crab and mediocre Ramen bar... went in for dinner and the sushi was decent but wouldn't go back there again.
(2)Alice L.
I'm very surprised at the amount of mediocre and bad reviews this place has gotten. Sure, it's expensive for "not the best quality" sushi. But cmon, it's all you can eat, and to me, it's pretty good for what it's worth! Service has never been a problem for me. Employees there have always been very attentive. I like Tokyo One, compared to other sushi buffets, because they offer sashimi...and tons of it. Maybe I just don't have the most peculiar taste buds when it comes to authentic Japanese food or the freshest of fish, but the sashimi is great to me! Although not the best I've had, it's good enough for me to get several plates of it. The food on the other side is pretty good though. I really like their lo mein, not so much their fried rice. Love the baked mussels and the Korean ribs are good enough to me. Everything else is pretty generic in terms of a Asian buffet. They also have a little ramen station which is not all that great...but I like how they have a variety of soups, noodles, and toppings. Aside from the sashimi, my favorite part of going to Tokyo One is the creme brulee. Honestly, all of the other desserts are horrible. One bite and you're going to wonder where exactly they got these from and how long they've been sitting around. However, the creme brulee is SO good. I always make sure to get at least 2 plates, sometimes more. I would go here for lunch. Dinner is a bit more on the "too expensive and not worth it" side. One of the only differences is that at dinner, there are some seafood options (crab legs and I don't remember what else). Nevertheless, I always leave this place with a food coma, guaranteed.
(4)Suz L.
Not bad for all you can eat.
(3)Ben K.
I went to Tokyo One with my family on 2-15-16 for lunch. I've immediately noticed that the staff were very understaffed. Food was always either empty or running low. Our waiter was so busy that our waters were always empty and our table was full of dirty plates. To me this place has gone straight down in service and food. I've been coming here for about 10yrs, and never have seen it like this. My uncle was very unhappy with the fact that everything was just about out. I had to literally wait 15 mins or so for some shrimp tempura. On one occasion i tried to get some hibachi and the cook was so busy making things for the buffet line, he just ignored me. I really can't say anything nice about our experience. Will try Osaka next time.
(1)Tami P.
Remember that this is a buffet, if that is not for you then don't go here. We have been several times and enjoyed it each time that we went. Selection here is better than expected and the buffet is kept very clean and fresh even if you are there at an off time, YEA! Our service is dependably very good and attentive. I love the price point for this kind of quality. The atmosphere is very pleasing for a buffet which is a nice surprise. Not your average Asian buffet, THANK YOU Tokyo One for that.
(4)Mark S.
Our waitress did a good job and I didn't get sick so two stars, but mediocre food at best and for the price I'd recommend going somewhere else. Even the sushi & sashimi was obviously very low grade and not very appetizing. A weekend lunch for two came to $50, which there are plenty of better options around. I can't imagine paying out $35+ each for dinner. To sum it up in one word: disappointing. Tempted to make it one star just for insulting Japanese cuisine with such poor offerings. Even the rice wasn't good .... sigh .... I don't care how much quantity there is there, even a little bit of very poor quality is too much
(2)Amber H.
This place is awful! And $17 for lunch is just insane! There was hardly any variety when it came to the sushi rolls. All of the other food had a weird after taste. The desserts were disgusting. Should've went next door to fogo. Definitely won't be coming back.
(1)Suttela S.
This is a great place to try new kinds of sushi and celebrate.
(4)A R.
Complete fail. They are a sushi buffet place so you would think they would have a good variety of sushi. However they only had 5 types of rolls two of which were not being replenished. The sashimi is okay, but I didn't go back for seconds. The udon soup was bland and the noodles were rubbery. We got seated quickly but then after that I did not see out waitress again so ration your drinks. Or better yet there are definitely better sushi places in Addison, so skip Tokyo One
(1)Sharde A.
I use to absolutely love this place growing up, the sashimi was good for a buffet, and for that price it was worth it at the time. Now the past year or so I've noticed the quality has gone down. The creme brulee and coffee jelly may not keep me here any longer. The sushi/sashimi buffet isn't well attended to anymore. Often the serving plates are empty or close to it. The restaurant still has the same variety of dishes, different kinds of desserts: assorted pastries & fruit, and a hot food area with noodles, fried rice, meats. I always find the tempura isn't well stocked with shrimp, those seem to go quickly. The soup bar is pretty generic too. The only reason why I like it is because you can load up on quail eggs and narutomaki. Ikura gunkan maki is terrible here, I know to stay away from that. I don't come back because I want unlimited sushi anymore, usually it's just for the hot pot with crab legs. Even then I try to go right when it opens for dinner, just in case I change my mind if I decide the sashimi looks okay to eat.
(2)Julia P.
Great place and great customer service! also place is clean and fresh!
(5)Rose H.
This is hands down the best buffet I've ever been to. The staff was very attentive and their assortment of food is amazing. They have a build-your-own soup station which was fantastic. The sushi was fresh and the gentlemen even offered to make us a custom roll. I didn't have any of their alcoholic beverages but they looked yummy too.
(5)Anny N.
I went here with my family for an early Christmas dinner and I wasn't completely satisfied when I left. Of course my family loves any type of asian buffet, so they were more than impressed with the all you can eat options. Food: I wasn't a big fan of the sushi or sashimi, which is suppose to be what they are known for. The roll selections were minimal, but they did have a lot of sashimi to choose from. I thought the hot dishes and dessert was much better than the sushi. The crab legs were good, but of course you have to wait in line for a bit since most the time they run out because everyone takes likes 2-3 big dishes of them. The creme brulee was surprisingly good. The green tea ice cream was also great, but who can really mess up on ice cream right? Service: Our waitress was on point and I never had to wait for my refills. I cannot complain about the service, especially at a busy buffet. Would I come back? Yes I probably would, but mainly because I know my family likes it. If I am craving sushi, I would much rather just go to a regular sit down sushi restaurant without the buffet.

If you want to try or see what each sushi tokyo one is probaly best, but not for sushi lover

Like other said food not so great and price is to high. I will never never come back again.
(1)Shaun W.
The food was great the service was pretty much non existent. We were relegated to being an invisible table. Sorry to say because they made our anniversary dinner a bad experience we will not be dining with them again not worth the price.
(1)Ana L.
I think it was $30 each (don't remember cause hubby paid :P). The food was decent, overall, the items that really stood out was the ramen soup, bbq lamb, and the dessert. Everything else was good, but forgettable. The crab legs has a sigh that says they will charge extra if you waste them, but they aren't really good. No flavor, basically just boiled with no seasoning, maybe a little salt. I didn't see any butter or anything for it. The sushi pieces weren't really cut or cleaned well either. The tendons and fat were still all over the pieces, and they weren't fresh either. It didn't make us sick when we tried them, but the taste was terrible, and the texture was chewy. (Not common for sushi if the chef knew how to cut and clean sushi). They serve hot pot too! We didn't get to try that because we were way too full! We had dessert though, and that was amazing! You have selections of cakes, flan, cookies, fruit, chocolate covered strawberries, and ice cream. Oops, forgot to mention what else they had: bbq meats and seafood, hibachi style meats and seafood, sushi, sushi rolls, sashimi, Japanese appetizers like edamame and tempura, squid salad, and some Korean pickled foods like kimchi. Well... I feel that for the selection, the price is decent, but they need to work on the quality more. I think they need a real sushi chef at least to lead and teach the sushi team. Service was great! Although the servers were all assigned a section (it looks that way), they were all pretty helpful if they happened to pass by and saw you needed something. Manager was on the floor keeping an eye on everything too. My husband and I didn't really have to ask for anything much, because they offered everything to us before we would realize we needed something.
(3)Cynthia C.
Although it can't really compare to the Japanese Buffets you can get in LA or NY or Toronto, it's probably the best you can get in the DFW area... at least that I know of. I personally prefer the food (freshness, quality) at Tokyo One over Osaka (the Japanese Buffet in Plano). To properly get your money's worth at any buffet, you must have a game-plan. Here's my Tokyo One master-game-plan: SUSHI FIRST, duh- which has always been fresh (not the dry, pasty, fishy smelling stuff you can find at low quality sushi buffets) ... I always go for sashimi FIRST: salmon, yellow tail, tuna,.... (OR you can get assorted sushi if you wish, but you may fill up on rice.. and they don't appreciate if you leave the rice on your plate) + pieces of rolls- rainbow, volcano, shrimp tempura, spider roll, california, spicy salmon, etc. + raw oyster bar- REALLY worth it if you love these things; really fresh fresh, but make sure to get there when they put the new batches out b/c you can get some really big ones...some were the size of my palm! (i think i had like 6 last week) 2nd visit, i go for the hot stuff: lamb chops, steak, scallop/shrimp/squid veggie stir fry; short ribs; fresh crispy shrimp tempura; chawanmushi- japanese steamed egg; 3rd course, high quality salad items: shrimp cocktail, dungeness crablegs, ika sansai (japanese calamari salad); seaweed salad 4th plate: desserts! creme brulee is LEGIT-- and they also have coffee flan & ice cream (you have to ask for this) & assorted pastries- mango mousse, cheesecake. but personally, i stick to the creme brulee & fresh fruit (pineapple, papaya, strawberries, minikiwis, chocolate dipped strawberries) if you're still hungry: noodle bar (ramen or udon with assorted soups)- i usually hate filler foods, but their noodle bar is delish & worth it to me; personalized stir fry fresh off the grill, hot pot @ your table oh man, now i want some Tokyo One Service: good- attentive, friendly & timely drink refills. For the guys: yes, they do have a TV so you don't have to miss the game... but if you plan on taking your lady out to a date here & watch the game at the same time: just warning you... you'll definitely get points deducted, not matter how good the food is. Coupons- found some 10% off on their website :) yay! so you may want to check that out before you go!
(4)Christopher S.
Crappy place, crappy food, and I will never go there again. Has roaches in the restaurant and there are flies everywhere. I got food poison after eating and if you eat there beware, be prepared to go to the ER. The most expensive buffet in Texas for thirty five dollars a head just for crappy food.Go some where else if you can. Beware!!!
(1)Robert V.
I must say I was expecting a lot more from these reviews and the fact that it was on a food network tv show. I was not impressed. I would not say that it was horrible, but for the money I was expecting a lot more. The food was just mediocre, not horrible, but not even "good". I will not return here. I have eaten at many sushi buffets and this is probably one of the worst. There were only a 6-8 rolls out, of course the typical Cali roll, the spider roll, the Philly roll. I enjoy eel and was disappointed that there was no eel rolls at all. All the deserts are dried up and taste like cardboard... The crab-legs that they have are cold, which is fine, but I prefer mine hot... At the end of the day, I would not recommend this place to anyone, unless you want to spend a lot of money on food that is not very satisfying.
(2)Peter H.
Came here for my dad's 60th bday. The family and I have been going to tokyo one since i was little, so everything is expected. Sushi is pretty much the same everywhere at sushi buffets so nothing really makes Tokyo One stand out. I would come here during lunch since it's cheaper and pretty much same quality.
(3)Kimmy T.
this buffet has a lot to offer but nothing too amazing. they have a big selection of sushi and sashimi and you can also place special orders for rolls as well. lots of other seafood such as oysters, crab legs, fish. everything tastes normal. there is a soup bar where you can order small bowls of noodles such as udon and ramen, which was pretty cool. i expected the service to be better since it's a buffet but our waiters/waitresses weren't too attentive and forgot a lot of our stuff. at $30 a pop it's probably worth it for a seafood buffet, but i'm not too big on sushi so i didn't get my money's worth. everyone else seemed to like the place though.
(3)Mykie D.
The customer service was excellent and the food was amazing. All you can eat crablegs, sushi, hibachi and other high quality items. I was very impressed. I love crablegs and was so excited to hear that they have them all you can eat. The concept is cool. The crablegs are frozen on the buffet. You pile as many as you want on your plate and your server takes them to the back to get steamed. So they're freshly steamed when you eat them. Great location. And they have the best Mai Tai I've ever indulged. That says a lot coming from me :-) I definitely recommend this place and can't wait to go back!
(4)Kristine N.
I normally am not a fan of buffets because one, I hardly eat the money's worth and two, the food usually isn't of the best quality to me, BUT this place is an exception! For about $27, you have a huge selection of quality "buffet" food....let me try to list some. 4 different kinds of noodle soup Variety of meat - tempura style, baked seafood, lambchops, beef teriyaki, etc. Vegetarian dishes Fried Rice Fresh sashimi....(best part is it's unlimited!) 5-6 different sushi rolls - phili roll, spider roll, alaska, california, just the usual rolls Dessert - tiramisu, cheesecake, chocolate cake, fruit, etc. etc! Now for about $27 and an empty stomach, this is a deal! I'm always wanting Sashimi and at other sushi restaurants, it's always an average price of $12 for a few slices or $2.50 for only one piece of the Nigiri and the cut is very thin! Thus when I come here, you bet I fill up on sashimi (only Salmon b/c that's all I like) and sushi! I also really like trying a tiny bit of everything just to get my money's worth. They also serve Dungeous crab.....and they're huge! I didn't get to try it because by the time I noticed it, I was already full. So how great is that for $27?? For lunch the price is about $15 so if you're hungry this is another alternative time to go....although I think the food selections may be less than dinner. Service is excellent. The waiters/waitresses are attentive and friendly. They come by to check on us quite frequently to take our plates and refill on drinks. Overall, I love the food selections and think this place is great for family dinners, a casual date night, or pigging out with friends!

We went as a family for Saturday lunch because of a coupon. Having heard so many good things about this restaurant, our expectation is high. There were some good dishes such as spicy tuna sashimi, salmon sashimi, asparagus salad and Korean ribs. The rest were far less than impressive: seafood sashimi salad tasted unfresh and soggy, crawfish salad tasted rotten, mushroom soup was too sweet, half of the salad varieties were way too salty. Luckily, there were no empty platters, except for only two pieces of Salmon and Spicy tuna Sashimi on each platter, and those were fresh. My conclusion is that it is better than a Chinese buffet, but subpar as a Japanese buffet. I am yet to try Osaka. At this point, Japan House tastes fresher and better than Tokyo One. I will not go back to Tokyo One even with 10% off coupon.
(2)Jim B.
Fantastic & Fresh! Lunch menu is well filled and lots of great things to eat. The sushi portion of the buffet is extensive and goes from rolls on one end to sashimi on the other. There is a hot food section and a cold salad section along with dessert. The staff keeps the buffet well stocked and very very clean. Great place to have lunch.

We were roadtripping back to Arkansas and my uncle remembered this place that he had stopped by before, but didn't end up eating at since the line was so long. They were closing at 9:30PM that night, and we came in around 8:45. The hostess was pretty friendly about it, but they did try to tell us to get food before they cleaned up. The thing is... if you close at 9:30, why would you clean up before then?!!?? Either way, we filled our plates with foods from the sushi buffet and from other sections too. I personally really enjoyed the lamb chops. I took a hint from the popular reviews about the creme brulee and the green tea ice cream and it was truly worth it as well!

We went here twice.. Stuff are friendly and food is good also. I love their rolls because its fresh & tasty..

For the price they are asking, it's a good place for sushi lunch buffet. The sashimi dishes are in good shape and taste fresh, unlike other similar places(e.g. Osaka) has soggy raw fish.
(4)Robert D.
Quantity not quality. Price not justified. mediocre rolls that sit out for long periods of time, stale rice on rolls. Buffet garbage
(1)Fuk Y.
We, party of 5, came here yesterday for lunch. The servers were nice. The highlights (deserve 5 stars) are Kalbi an grill salmon with bones. I am Ok with paying 20 just to eat only them. Hotpot items are good quality. Sashimi an sushi are just ok. Bump up 1 star because of consistently good quality of Kalbi and salmon with bones.

For $27.99 a person you better eat the crab legs, oysters, clams and sushi you can! Skip all the other asian food because it will only fill you up. I go straight to eh crag legs, and here is the trick get a hot pot and re-stream the crab legs so they are hot. It taste so much better hot. Dessert are okay and the fruit is fresh.
(3)Elizabeth B.
Came here hungry and in need of getting our bellies full. It was one of those days where only a buffet would do the trick. I started off with some green tea noodle soup. It sounded different so I was all about giving it a try. It was decent, but not quite what I was hoping for flavor wise. Then I got some crab legs and some lamb and a few sides. The lamb was absolutely delicious. Tender, juicy and mouth watering. The variety was all there. Sushi, seaweed salad, cooked stir frys and so on. I wish they had a few more salad like options. Our waitress was very attentive and very sweet. It's not located in the buffet, but they do offer complimentary ice cream, two choices: red bean or green tea. I opted for half and half, and both were delicious.
(4)Manuel D.
Lots and lots of options! Not the best sushi, but pretty close for the selection and price. If you look at Tokyo One from a best value perspective, I believe you'll agree, it's a fairly good deal. However, if you ask my kids, they LOVED this place! So much so, that my 12 yr old told us that he is bringing his wife here for dinner! He doesn't even talk about girls now & he's already to bring his wife?! Too funny and a special congratulations to Tokyo One for impressing my kids! ~M

WORST FOOD EVER!! I have zero clue how the think they can charge $70 for two buffets with that kind of food. The waitress told us they had the "best buffet in Dallas". SERIOUSLY A JOKE. It's also dirty inside and in need of a serious remodel. Sushi was limited and flavorless. Meat was fatty and fish had bones in it. WORST BIRTHDAY DINNER EVER. DO NOT GO!!!!!!
(1)Jacqueline N.
Came here thinking for the price it has to be restaurant quality food in a buffet. My friend and I were disappointed to find that the food was mediocre at best and service was horrible. Don't go there thinking price is an indication of quality. Definitely will not be returning.
(1)Daniel B.
Great buffet! Wonderful selection of food, sushi hibachi and everything in between. Very reasonably priced for the quality of food. Parking lot was full for lunch so that says something but even though there was a crowd, it did not affect the service. Highly recommend this restaurant
(4)Scott L.
On first glance Tokyo One was a delight - sushi lunch buffet for $15 with an Asian clientle. Tempura was good but everything else had a cardboard cafeteria taste. Subpar food. I spent $20 for sushi that tasted like it had been sitting out. I'd rather spend $20 on fresh sushi. This place is clean, but I'll never come back. Sushi buffet is probably just not a good idea. Borderline two stars, but it's just not worth the price.

Tokyo one was once my favorite sushi restaurant due to its fresh, quality food supply and attentive service. However, after 5 years, this place finally disgusted me and my visitor from this recent visit. When we entered the restaurant, it smelled like used restroom. Yes,GROSS. I was shocked at how much this place has changed over time. Then it was the inattentive staff and the inconsiderate manager. Began with the front desk lady, she's very much a snob that was going to put us in the area where no one sits while every other area of this restaurant has available booths & tables. She was unfriendly and cold when she faced us two asian ladies, and she was all smiling and sucked up when there are westerners. Same deal with the waitresses, go figure. The management is so spoiled with the fact that Tokyo One has a great location and they are not afraid of losing business no matter what they do. That made them have no problem to downgrade everything from food to service, and treat customers however they feel like... I looked at the sushi and sashimi section, overall they looked messy and not as fresh as they used to be. This time I got to witness the sources of their sashimi slices- bunch of frozen fish from sealed bags which are labeled as pre-prepared products. The ice cream even tastes bland as if they pour water to dissolve the flavors. I now feel like I was eating at a fast food restaurant and paying a mid-scale price. I attempted to address these issues with the manager, he came to me with a face as if I shouldn't be saying anything bad about the restaurant. And walked off with no courtesy or proper manner, he walked off more like a gangster as if I owed him an apology. When I began to list my complains and concerns, he was impatient and blamed me for having these concerns. He stated "every restaurant has smells, whats wrong with that" after I told him this place smells really bad, and it's not acceptable. The deterioration of service in this restaurant has gone too far. For people who want to eat quality sushi and enjoy good service, it's time for a new place.
(1)Amy T.
Service is OK. However the variety of the food is quite limited compared to a traditional buffet. Even the fruits only has several kinds.Not recommended for the price paid.
(2)Jessica W.
i came here around 7pm and was seated immediately in a booth. waiter was very friendly and kept our water filled and our used plates taken away and was very prompt about it. Food seemed congealed and wasn't fresh; chefs seemed bored and weren't preparing fresh food either. All the desserts had the consistency of rubber. Ice cream was good, although a color that I wasn't used to.
(2)Keven W.
$30 dollars for a buffet sounds a little bit pricey, but for what you get the money is worth it. We got crab legs and fresh raw oysters. There is hot pot too, but I did not have that. The desserts are okay, try the crème brulee and ice cream which is great, the cakes are okay and worth try, but do not expect much. The sushi was okay though. One complaint is the food did not come out fast enough. Had to wait a couple of minutes to get the popular items like the beef kalbi and the lamb chops, but both are great and kept on coming for more. The tempura was pretty gross though as it was cold, but maybe I should get it fresh next time. I would go back again.

I have been to this restaurant numerous of times. The food was overwhelming at first but now I just try to focus on my favorite every time i go there so I wont become a fat ass lol Pros: good, prompt service, awesome dessert (you have to try the creme brulee, especially for dinner since they make it separately instead of in a huge punch bowl looking). good selection of seafood and hot food. the fried rice seems decent. Cons: The sushi quality seems to go down the last time I was there. My bf wasnt happy about it at all and said we have to blacklist the restaurant...I dun really want to, dun tell him lol. Another thing, creme brulee is one of my favorite dessert, wat makes it so special is the crispy sugar layer on top, and yet, I dun remember the last time that crispy layer was there on my creme brulee from tokyo one :(. Also, the beef ribs are not good. The flavor is a lil weird to me, but that's just me, yall might have to try it to decide for yourself. I still like the restaurant, maybe cuz it's one of my first big sushi buffet restaurant that I have been to. Next time when I super crave for sushi, i think i'll try a different sushi buffett restaurant tho
(3)Peter H.
Snow crab all you can eat, count me and my girlfriend in! This was my first time here and I was quite surprised by the quality of food. I'm not a big person on all you can eat Asian buffets but this one surpassed my expectations. The sushi was good and we also had hot pot which was pretty good as well.
(5)Steven R.
Wow, talk about a good experience. I've been to Tokyo One many times and have almost always enjoyed it, but today was really good. And it was Mother's Day. I called around 3pm to make a reservation for 5:30 but they don't do reservations for parties under 8 people. They said I should have no problem getting a table around that time. We should up around 6pm and it was packed: 35 minute wait, they said. We got on the list and started looking online for alternatives. I don't know exactly what happened next, but my mom came out and got me and said they'd found us a table. It turned out to be the "high table" near the buffet and desserts, but really no problem and was a fine seat. Once we were seated, the manager apologized for the table placement (my guess is it was an extra they threw out there to accommodate an extra party) and offered us a free drink. So we had a large hot sake on the house. Overall it was just a very positive experience. The food was spot on as always.
(5)Jacqueline N.
Honestly I'm pretty picky when it comes to buffets but this one is pretty nice. Even if your not a sushi fan i would still go (I'm a huge sushi fan). Other than sushi, Tokyo One offers different types of noodles (my favorite is the green tea noodles), tempura, hot pot, and regular sides. When i eat here i typically go Friday or Saturday night and recommend to make reservations (i always do). unless if you like waiting by the bar. As for the service, the waiters are always kind, and honestly are very attractive!!
(4)Julia O.
Pretty good for a sushi buffet. They have lots of options for both sushi and non-sushi dishes. Love their sashimi, as it always tastes fresh. For dessert, I would definitely recommend trying the creme brulee or the green tea ice cream.
(3)Mark H.
We decided to give Tokyo one another chance. Just because the girlfriend misses some Japanese food, and Tokyo One made us such a good impression the first time we were there. If it's up to me, I would never go back to that place, and the fact proved I was right. Tokyo One was such a disappointment. I personally went there four-times myself, and it really made me regret every-time. Here is something we really don't like about that place. I counted last night at the sushi bar that they only have about eight kinds of sushi rolls, and the rest is sachimis and raw fish. Their sushi rolls had even less choices than some Chinese buffet. I know the management of Tokyo One is running by Chinese, but would you please act at least like Japanese and add some sushi. Don't even mention those sushi run out quick, as well as the eel sachimi. The size of their raw oyster was woefully small. Basically, whatever food that has relatively greater value is gonna run out quick and won't get refilled in time, such as shrimp tempura, eel sachimi, fried sushi rolls and other things you can name of. It's the last time I will ever go to Tokyo One, unless this place is running by other managements.
(1)Christopher D.
This place is interesting, and the lunch prices are more than fair. Staff is fantastic and it's worth a visit.
(4)Karen H.
NOT worth the $35 per person price. Our bill was $76 with sodas! We will not be back. No prices listed anywhere in the restaurant. They have the prices listed in an obscure place when you walk through the breezeway before you enter. If the ambiance and the selection justified the cost, there wouldn't be a problem. But when you have loud kids/people, crudy booths, dishes that are almost gone, and food that gets cold before you can get back to the table (health alert), it's not worth it. To their credit, the curry chicken was good. BUT they are charging Texas De Brazil prices for much less of an experience and quality. They should not be listed as 2 dollar signs according to their prices. We talked to the owner and she stated that they hadn't had any complaints in 16 years...that's hard to believe.
(1)Khoi T.
This place is always packed, which often time suffers in quality and service. It is a great choice for Japanese and Asian dishes if the place is not busy. Everything is good and enjoyable, and would deserve a four star if the above problems would be solved (which will most likely not to go away).
(3)Aric T.
Food was sub-par at best. Several entrees were cold. The worst part was that the menu prices were in the door way hardly noticeable. Our bill was $76 for two cheesy buffet dinners. Crap!
(1)Bob M.
The food was okay. And I mean, just okay. Nothing out of the ordinary that you wouldn't find in a buffet. But most buffets are ten or twelve dollars. This is nearly $40 per person after tip and drink. That's outrageous. Next time I'll find somewhere else.
(1)Cat C.
I went here for my mom's best friend's daughter's birthday (boy, that's a mouthful) - there were six of us total. We went at lunchtime on a weekday, around 1pm. The sushi selection was all right, and it was pretty well-stocked. There was a ramen/udon noodle station, and the udon noodles with mushroom soup base was pretty delicious. They kept the popular shrimp tempura reasonably well-stocked, either that or I just got lucky. The selections of hot food were sort of minimal, but enjoyable. I was disappointed that they didn't have any watermelon at the fruit table - it seems like all buffets have watermelon! We got different kinds of ice cream - red bean, green tea, and strawberry. They were all really tasty, but I LOVED the green tea. It's all in all a decent buffet, and I'll probably go back.
(3)Blya H.
Great place for sushi. The food is awesome, everything at the sushi /sashimi bar is aways very fresh and excellent selection. The soup bar is great too. People who are not into sushi have "cooked" choices too including tempura and crab legs but I go there for the sushi. There's nice dessert selection too, with little pieces of cake, fruit and creme brule.
(5)Brian C.
Look, it's a nice place. Nicer than other buffets and other all you can eat sushi places. There's a very good selection of food you don't see at normal Asian buffets. There's sashimi. My wife loves all the Asian food in the world and we really wanted to go to Tokyo One. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. Something, we don't know what, made my wife violently ill for most of Saturday afternoon. That being said, until that point, she was a big fan. She prefers the simpler sashimi and sushi to the rolls, she liked the tempura options and the soups and hot pots. I'm a simple man, when I see sushi, I want rolls. I want unagi (of which there was none), I want spicy mayos and crazy creations. I understand that's not as legit as a slice of raw-ass fish, I recognize that, that's me. But whatever it was that keeled her over, it's not worth chancing again. Personally, for some sushi, I'd hit up Blue Fish and if I want to eat ALLLLLLL the sushi, I'd go to Genki.
(2)Heather N.
I came here with 3 co-workers for the weekday all you can eat buffet because they love sushi. Full disclosure I don't eat sushi or raw fish. There was fried rice, noodles, fruit, tempura & enough of everything for me & a great selection of sushi & seafood for everyone else. The place is very popular & there were a lot of Japanese patrons in the restaurant. Always a good sign at a sushi restaurant!
(4)Zee J.
My dining experience at Tokyo One seem to worsen a little bit with each visit. Five years ago, this used to be one of my favorite weekend brunch destinations. When I ate there today, however, I don't see any reason for going there any more. The selection of sashimi, as well as their quality, have steadily gone down over the years. We got a hot pot at our table, the burner was running low on propane, and the beef shabu shabu was cut so thick they were tough to chew. Most of their cooked items are poorly seasoned and you can tell they are using cheap ingredients for everything. About the only thing I consistently like there is the fried rice. Also I guess it's hard to mess up something like green tea ice cream. All in all, not a place I would pay more than 10 bucks for.
(2)A S.
How have I not Yelped this place till now? I practically grew up with the family that runs this place, and this is my regular haunt whenever I'm in the mood for Asian and sushi. Over the years, I've watched them rotate the selections on the hot and cold bars, so just as I think I'm done with Tokyo One, they throw in something different to draw me back in. Whenever I want to introduce out-of-towners or newbies to the idea of sushi, this is the first place I take them. The cooked food options helps soften the blow until they can warm up to the idea of plunging into the raw fish menu. Hot pots, salad and pasta bar, grilled foods, tempura, fried rice, desserts, and of course sushi and sashimi which occasionally showcases seasonal fish and seafood. This is my idea of comfort food and I never fail to leave satisfied.
(4)Katy H.
For the price and everything that you get it's a great deal. Try the mango ice cream at the end and the cream burlee - fantastic meal. Everytime I've gone it's been a good experience.
(4)Somchai I.
i really like coming here, the service is always great and the food is always great, its never been like one time taste bad, or one time it was great, consistent! i like it. sometimes i think i only come here for dessert. im actually allergic to seafood so i cant eat half this place but my friends say they will come just for sushi, because paying 27 for a buffet of sushi, compared to a sushi resturaunt and paying 10 for each roll is just not fulfilling at all, we always end up going to eat again later. id want to be full. good thing i cant eat those things then =D REMEMBER, THE HOT POT COMES WITH YOUR MEAL!
(4)Tiffany D.
Tokyo One is quite delicious. I've been here for lunch and for dinner and I must say, the dinner price is worth it. I love starting out at their ramen bar. My favorite is the hot and spicy seafood soup. I always add some quail eggs and seaweed to my bowl. Their roll selections varies from day to day and they're not really bad at all. My favorite is their eel roll. It's always seasoned perfectly. They have a nice variety of sashimi, it's not the best but it is a lot fresher than most places. You should try their marinated mussels. Sweet and succulent, you really can't stop eating them! If you're not into consuming raw seafood, you have a huge selection of cooked dishes such as chicken and beef yakitori and grilled lamb. I love their tempura station because they are constantly putting out fresh fried goodness. Huge deep fried shrimp and veggies are put out for your consumption. Save some space for their ice cream and dessert bar. I highly recommend the green tea ice cream and their creme brulee. They used to serve individual dishes of the creme brulee but now it's in one huge serving dish. Don't be intimidated by it, just dig in.
(4)Tonya S.
Went here about two weeks ago with friends. We decided to leave shortly after we were seated because the place smelled very, very badly. I see a previous reviewer stated that his wife got sick around the same time. I'm sooooo glad we left. We won't be back!
(1)Chris H.
Great sushi buffet. Rolls are average but really enjoy the sashimi and wide variety of unique Asian cuisine. Been here before and will be back again!
(4)Britney Thuy T.
I love all the soups, especially since you can add your own ingredients (quail eggs, fish cakes, seaweed, tofu, etc). Tempura and their fried rice is delicious. Unlike most buffets, they don't overload the buffet so the food is always fresh with the chefs constantly putting more in when it's empty. Sushi is okay, but nothing special. Desserts - caramel brulee and flan are good. Be sure to save room for the free ice cream! I usually get the green tea flavor. You also get a cute sake or tea set for your birthday :) ***Update 7/4/12*** The last two times I've been here, Tokyo One is not as good as it used to be. Seems like they've downgraded the quality - either that or I just came on bad days. Either way, I have to edit my review from 5 stars to 3 stars. Hopefully next time is better.
(3)Ann J.
As always, yummy! The volcano rolls were especially good this evening. A waitress (not ours) was fairly pushy with the ice cream offers but I think it was her way of trying to joke with us. Definately worth a stop.
(5)Brandon H.
Apple was my server today. She was amazing. She took me on a hand guided tour of the entire sushi buffet. She was very sweet and funny. The fish was fresh and at a good price point of $16.95 for the lunch buffet. Some of the items, however, we're obviously canned seafood that took away from the freshness factor eg. Clams and mussels. I will definitely be back because it was clean and the overall experience was great. Apple will be getting the best tip I have ever gave on a buffet.
(5)Austin N.
I used to love this restaurant, I live an hour away, but that travel always seemed worth it because the food was really good. But now unfortunately Tokyo One started cutting corners for lunch, only for increased profit, leaving us customers feeling cheated out. *But first HIGHLY OFFENDED by the owners policy. Texas in the summer is very very hot, 100+ degree weather on a daily basis. So being a guy, wearing a tank would be quite reasonable on Texas' hot summer days. Unfortunately, the owner's "No tanks on men" caused me to take another trip to a local Target just to buy a shirt. (Remember, I live an hour away) It left a very offensive, and pretty much embarrassing taste of the restaurant in my mouth. It was just a tank, it wasn't as if I went into the restaurant half naked or anything. * The Atmosphere: It's strange because it's as if the restaurant use to be a red lobster or something, and they still kept all the furniture. Slightly feels out of context, and because of it, it feels dark and dirty. The Service: Besides the owners policy, the service was good. The Food: It's always been good, but the offerings at lunch are very disappointing. My two all time favorite sushi rolls are the eel and the spicy tuna roll, both not on the lunch menu. When asked, they were only at the dinner menu. So disappointed since a couple years back, these were offered. It seems like the restaurant is running on it's reputation for customers, rather than their food. Verdict: Come only during dinner, lunch you are going to feel really cheated out. I myself will probably not come back as often since the absurd regulations by the rower left a bad taste in my mouth. What a shame, use to be my favorite sushi restaurant.
(2)Heather F.
Is Tokyo One the same kind of quality sushi buffet like what you would find in California or perhaps Japan? No. This is still Texas. But is it worth a visit? Yes. Being all you can eat sushi this place is expensive. Lunch will cost you around $18 and dinner is $35. But the dinner is definitely worth the money: fresh sushi, sashimi, tons of salads like seaweed, jellyfish, squid, scallops, fresh crab, fresh shrimp, fresh noodle bowls, cooked meats like lamb and beef ribs, and desserts, oh desserts: chocolate covered strawberries, dragon fruit and creme brulee just to name a few. I have eaten here for years and never had a bad meal. You need to come here for the variety and selection.
(4)Jeffrey K.
The food is ok here but the sushi is not fresh like it should be as it could never compare to densetsu or shiro but the creme brûlée satisfied me and so did the other dishes so overall I think 3 stars wily be appropriate for this restraunt
(3)Steve R.
They may be under new management. Looks like some new menu items are being experimented with. They're also experimenting with a new message posted around to not take more than you can eat, or they'll charge you extra for it. That sounds more like a Furr's Cafeteria. Servers are always pleasant and very fast. The choices seem endless, so do yourself a favor and try new things! I also feel confident I'm having a true sushi experience dining among a largely Asian clientele. It's a great experience!
(4)Scarlet L.
I want to come enjoy...not for war! Stay away weekend dinner if you don't want to see people fighting and yelling for king crab legs, crabs...and later rainier cherries (if any). The sushi was not that impressive. Sashimi is ok. Wasabi is not a good quality one. Don't know what happens to regular soy sauce. They only have tasteless "less sodium soy sauce" on the table. quite disappointed! I used to like this restaurant a couple years ago. The cooked food is actually quite good with the lamb, salmon...Other than that, I could not remember much. Dessert: go for the creme brulee. I had to eat more than 2.
(3)Rosie O.
Love the variety! But disappointed in the baked oysters, they were better at the $15 buffet in Garland. : /
(4)Will D.
$16.99 for lunch isn't bad. The salmon sashimi is phenomenal, and thanks to this place I've tried squid, octopus, and egg sushi. The octopus was great. Great atmosphere for eating by yourself if you like too for lunch. Have already recommended to friends and coworkers.
(4)Ryan R.
Holy hell, talk about a lube job, $80 for two people to eat mediocre food. Only thing good was the plum wine which at least helped me with the sticker shock. I ate at Benihanna's the other night and had better food for $65. In my opinion Taste of Asia has a better assortment of FRESH sushi rolls. Will never eat at this place again and will tell everyone to steer clear.
(1)Andrea S.
My husband and I started eating here a couple of years ago and we now go here for nearly every special occasion, from birthdays to anniversaries. The food is amazing and the variety is fantastic. It's a bit more expensive than we normally eat out, but for the amount and quality of food the price can not be beat. We could easily spend just as much at any sushi restaurant and leave without being nearly as satisfied. Apple has waited on us for our last few visits and has always been very pleasant. Some of the items on the buffet are not familiar to us but she always makes sure we have everything we need without making us feel silly for not realizing. For example, the first time we tried tempura we did not get the sauce, which she kindly offered us. It made took the shrimp and vegetable to a whole new level. We have yet to try the hot pot but I definitely plan to next time we go. I always start with a full plate of sushi and sashimi, which is always very fresh. The variety is great as well. The tempura and meat selections on the other side are great as well. There is a cold food section that doesn't appeal to my tastes much, but the food always looks delicious. They even have a ramen bar with several types of broth and additions for the soup. Dessert is always a weak spot of mine and they have a great selection. The desserts come in small squares so it's easy to try a little bit of everything and I'm always a sucker for the chocolate covered strawberries and creme brulee. They also offer green tea ice cream, which is light and finishes the meal perfectly. I have been here a totally of five or six times and have never once been disappointed with the food or service and I plan to continue to come here for years to come.
(5)Warren C.
Sushi buffet favorite of the DFW choices. Fresh sushi with so many good choices hard to make room for the cooked entrees (don't miss the lamb chops. Good attentive service and reasonably priced for the quality.
(4)Betty L.
I decided to go here despite poor reviews on yelp, and $75.00 later, I have learned never to disobey the Yelp again! I heard mixed reviews about this place, but wanted to give it try because it was feature on Food Network and its the only nice buffet restaurant in Dallas. The service was really friend, but their selection was limited. They did not have king crab leg, instead their crab legs were those really skinny and long ones. Their shabu shabu selection was plain old sad, with all the selection in tiny bowls and none of it looked fresh. Their sushi was really bland and their sashimi was the only thing I enjoyed. Also, I tried the ramen and it was disgusting. It had string beans in it people!!!! Lastly, their dessert was also a limited selection. I enjoyed the chocolate dipped strawberries and the creme brulee but the chocolate flan, cheesecake and chocolate cake was almost inedible. They did sing happy birthday to my friend and gave him some free tea cups which I thought was really but did not make up for the food. Bottom Line: for 2 people at $70, go to Fogo de Chao instead.
(2)Alison C.
came in today with my family & my sister's boyfriend's family. had reservations at 11 but whoever took the appointment failed to mention that they don't serve people until 11:30. we had to wait there for about 45 minutes until they started to put food out on the buffet. waste of time. staff should know what they're talking about & give correct information. we were greeted by an extremely rude hostess, kelly. she took us to the back where some staff were folding napkins and silverware. we wanted to sit at another table away from that & just pull up a chair instead. she said yes, but with a snobby attitude that needs to be checked. crappy customer service here. our waitress was great. very polite, attentive, refilled drinks & took plates whenever needed. i wish i got her name because i would definitely recommend her. all i know was that she was thai :P & of course, green tea ice cream has always been delicious. they changed the company of the red bean ice cream, so it wasn't as phenomenal but still alright. my family are returning customers because we know the owner. we usually go with big parties and the servers have been awesome every time. could do without the snotty attitudes from hostesses though.
(3)Diana D.
Japan House has better quality food but a smaller selection than tokyo one. i came here for an event in the back room and they accommodated us very well. they cleared our plates and refilled our beverages very fast. they have a huge selection of typical asian food, but only one stood out--the big crabs.yummy and delish! the sashimi, nigiri, and sushi rolls were very blah and bordering on gross. unagi was terrible. even the california roll was kinda gross. i only enjoyed the salmon nigiri. desserts were pretty bad. i wouldn't actually pay to come back here, but i'd go back if it was free.
(2)Wayne W.
I went there during Lunch hour, good price but seems like you won't get as much quality food as dinner.
(3)Keith L.
Very mediocre food for A LOT of money. Lots of it though. Very large selection of sushi, sashimi, entrees, desserts, crab legs, soups. The soups were the best. Sushi was presented well but fairly tasteless. Lamb chops and beef dishes were very tasty. Desserts were like eating that styrofoam popcorn in packaging. Go for the quantity, not quality.
(2)Hangster N.
Great place for bang for the buck! Their dinner is bit pricier but worth it. Dinner has more variety of everything! I used to go here all the time at least twice a month...but I guess going so often really brought down my taste buds. I love their noodle dishes, which is different from other all you can eat sushi restaurants; some don't even offer it! Tokyo one is also a great price during lunch time and worth a try! Not recommended if you are into specialty rolls such as volcano roll, etc. It's more simplistic here. I actually don't like any of their "cooked dishes" on the other side of the sushi bar. Some even end up being raw there too, and you don't want to eat raw food that supposed to be cooked!

This has been one of my fave restaurants, year in and year out. I started my sushi craze here, back in the day, when they mainly did sushi. Now they have this great buffet. The buffet is reaaly great, though, make sure you go early. The service at the buffet is very good, and asking questions is the best thing all around. If you don't ask, you don' get. As far as the crab legs, make sure to get the steamed, the iced alwasy seems watery. Now the sushi on the buffet...I still have to order frsh, I just cannot bring myself to not have fresh rolled for me. The mongolian buffet is excellant, if you like mongolian, as well as items such as the lamb chops. Over all it is the best asian buffet, yet, I haved come across, and the quality is excellant. I promise you, they will have to roll you out in a barrel.You cannot go wrong, this is the buffet, of buffets,but I am still waiting on my quail egg shots!! Oh, and yes, they have a great selection of sake, as well as they give the cutest sake set to you for your birthday! Love it! Love me some sake!!!

The quality of sashimi has gone down - some of them were tasteless and has the texture that they were just taken out of the freezer, still thawing. This is probably as good as it gets when it comes to sushi buffet, but after tasted some really good sushi in other parts of the country, I will think twice before plunking my hard earned dough on thawing sashimis.

Used to be GREAT...but this place has definitely gone downhill. Still Good- Tempura, Some of the rolls, and the coffee jello dessert, the creme brulee, and the flan. The BAD- Just about everything else. Especially bad- the grilled oysters with the mayo stuff on top. I immediately spit it back out once the funky seafood taste hit my tongue. YUCK! Where on earth did these things come from...the bottom of a boat in the trinity river?(don't answer that.. i am well aware that oysters are from the ocean...i grew up in florida) The worst part is....when you get the bill...you will be in shock when you realize that for the same amount of money, you could have had an amazing sushi dinner with appetizer, main course, AND dessert if you spent this at a much nicer place.

Not a big fan of buffets but this place is a must-come-back-to. They have an amazing sushi selection and great seafood dishes. It is a bit on the steep side, for lunch, but it is worth the money. One note I would add, their carpet needs a wash and I was a bit turned off by that. DOn't look down when you eat, lol.
