Went here for the first time after getting enticed by a social media post. They are located on the second floor and a free public parking lot is located just right across their building. Food- the selection is not that many. Mostly fried items in the appetizer, different sushi and hand rolls, sashimi and skewers. I was expecting more for 40/person. Quality- food are to be ordered max of 6 items at a time. They are not readily available and it will only be prepared when you put it in your order. This helps when you want to pace yourself. The food always comes out warm and freshly cooked, especially the skewers. Flavor- i like their skewers. The pork belly was a little tough but still good. The scallops are our favorite. The beef was tender though a little too peppery for me. Their fried items are good too. Takoyaki was also good. So overall, flavor-wise it is above average. Service- it was pretty quiet when we got there so the servers were very attentive and quick. They are very approachable and friendly too. Overall, I like the experience we had and the food we ate. I honestly think it is a little too steep in price for the selection available. This is probably those kinds of places that i will visit only once/twice a year.

Best deal for all you can eat sushi for $40 in the Bay Area. I recommend come early so it's not busy so you get orders quickly and really optimize for eating time. The inside is pretty chill. They definitely have a very large space large gathering. My favorite is the dragon roll as the best roll. The scallop both skewer and raw were the best in their category.

Tried their $39.99 AYCE option & was really astounded by the amount of options on the menu! So many appetizers, nigiri, sashimi, sushi rolls, hand rolls, yakitori, and drinks to choose from. The quality is on par with the price. Good at times but falters between rounds of ordering, so I'd say it's a little inconsistent. My favorite part of the meal was the Omakase box, which were probably the best quality cuts of the night. Some other items I'd recommend are the Salmon nigiri, Spicy Tuna Hand Roll, Gyudon, and Baked Mussels. I think the Negi Toro Hand Roll has a lot of potential but the amount of toro they give is way too tiny so the fish gets completely masked by the rice and seaweed. Also was not a huge fan of their signature sushi rolls. We came on Sunday around 6:30PM and there was about a 15 minute wait. Service was a bit disorganized but perhaps it's because of how busy it was. The place itself is HUGE. It's located upstairs, and they have a balcony area with plants on sale. Super cute waiting area!

All-you-can-eat sushi!!!! Yes, please!!! This is my first time here and I came with my friend. I am blown away. The sushi was fresh and it melts in your mouth. We ordered a lot of sushi but it was super delicious. My favorite is the salmon nigiri, of course. I love anything salmon. The baked mussels were delicious and super flavorful. But beware some have a lot of garlic. I am a garlic girlie but it was a very big clump of garlic. The scallop skewers were tasty but they were very tiny. But it is an all-you-can-eat restaurant so you can order as many as you like. My friend and I saw that they sell oysters too. We wanted to be bougie and try some oysters but sadly they cost extra. Nevertheless, this restaurant is a must, and it is downtown. Amazingly, it is so close to my college, csueb. A great place to hang out with friends and family. The service was amazing. The waitress checked up on us and made sure we were good. You know that is a great restaurant when they make an effort to make sure you are taken care of. The ambiance is very spacious and it is on the second floor so you see the view of downtown. By the way, you have to park in the parking structure. There is one close by and you have to walk to Hinata. You will see it is two floors and wonder how to get up there. Well, turn left, and in one block turn left and there is the entrance to Hinata. It is a bit confusing but it is worth it Also, you will have a food coma when you finish eating so I recommend taking the stairs to go back to the parking lot or walking around to see amazing stores because I was in a food coma. This spot is amazing and you need to come here for some all-you-can-eat sushi.

The pricing is excellent, matched with exceptional quality. It is the finest All-You-Can-Eat option in the Bay Area.

We went for the lunch buffet so the menu was somewhat limited but we still enjoyed! Are so much nigiri, more than I ever ate before However, as a sushi roll lover this place did disappoint, most of the rolls we tried I didn't really enjoy but review still gets high stars because I did like everything else

Been looking for a while for a good AYCE sushi place since we wanted to try a place other than our go to, which is Kenzo. Discovered this place thanks to all the great Yelp reviews. Parking is easy as there is a parking lot across the street. The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor. They have an elevator and stairway to get up there. They don't close after lunch service so it worked out great for us to have a late lunch / early dinner. They sat us right away and took our order. I like that you can scan the table code to order more on your own. We ordered the following: - Omakase Box (only 1 per person): great! Love it! Buttery melt in your mouth sashimi pieces. - Walu Tataki: it's ok - Salmon Tataki: good, but not great - Soft Shell Crab: very good. We ordered this every time we placed another order. Comes with a creamy sauce which I think is a sriracha aioli. - Takoyaki: very good. They add a lot of squid. Ordered a few times. Would have ordered more, but didn't want to fill up ok this. - Scallop: pretty good. Ordered a few times. - Baked Mussel: it's ok. Was a bit gritty. - Negi Toro Hand Roll: so good! Ordered this on every order. - Dragon Roll: ok - Lion King: ok - Rainbow Roll: ok - Hinata Special Roll: good - Salmon Sashimi: very good - Tuna Sashimi: great! - Hamachi Sashimi: ok - Tuna Nigiri: good - Salmon Nigiri: good - Unagi Nigiri: good - Hamachi Nigiri: good Overall the options seemed a bit limited, but if you like sashimi this is the place to go. Their sashimi is very fresh. Not a huge fan of their rolls, but it's good since I didn't over stuff myself with rice. If I want good rolls, I'll just go to Kenzo. We definitely will be back!

On Sunday, I recently had the pleasure of dining at Hinata Sushi Kitchen in Hayward with my family, and I must say, the experience was excellent from start to finish. Upon entering the restaurant, we were immediately struck by the warm and inviting ambiance. It is a large restaurant with a good skylight. It's a great spot for both family gatherings and casual meetups with friends. Kathy, the manager, greeted us with a friendly smile and made us feel right at home. She introduced us to the all-you-can-eat option, which was a delight. You can definitely request drink refills and order as much as you like, based on the meal price (see price details below). So an extra thanks to Kathy, who provided outstanding service! Price: - $39.99 pp AYCE Sushi All Day - $28.99 pp M-Th 11:30-4 excl Holidays Ordered: - Omakase Box - Salmon and Albacore Sashimi - Miso Soup - Edamame - Assorted Tempura - Soft Shell Crab - Geso Karaage - Beef, Pork Belly, and Scallop Skewers - Gyoza - Baked Mussels - Tried Alaska Roll, Lion King Roll, & Hinata Special Rolls Tina's Hot Tips: The omakase box is one order per table and it's more than enough food for two to share with ~22 pieces of sashimi. Definitely recommend coming here for special occasions, such as Graduations and Birthdays!

We came in around 8:30 pm, we got in pretty fast and the slices of fish were worthy. The service was good and they have an option to order online too. They had sashimi as an option which is insane for that price point. Here are a few things we got here: Omakase box (5/5): presentation and fish were pretty fire (photos) Escalor sashimi (5/5): buttery and yum Salmon (4/5): it was good! Mackerel (4/5): pretty good Beef skewers (5/5): very tender and added some wasabi to taste Scallop skewer (5/5): tasted like ouster but cooked Lion king roll (5/5): yess so good we ordered 3! 49er roll (3/5): it was not bad! Lots of good stuff, would recommend!
